SUGAR FOR CANNING
LIMITED TO Is LBS.

Portland, Ore, June 24.-ln au
nouncing the recent Food Admins
tration rule that, until further notice,
no family in Oregon be allowed to
purchase more than 25 pOonds of su-
gar for canning purposes, instead of
the 100 pounds heretofore permitted,
Assistant Federal Food Administra-
tor W. X Newell explained that this
new restriction is not due to any ac-
tual shortage of sugar or OF sugar-re-
fning capacity but that it is made ne
cessary because of the lack of Ship
ping facilities.
There is ample raw sugar in the
West Indies, Hawaii, the PHILIPPINES,
and other sugar-producing countries. 3"
said Mr. Newell. and there is ample
sugar-refining capacity here in the
United States. 1t is all question of
ships in which to bring the raw sugar
to this country. Every foot of ship
ping space is in demand for overseas
erpCrt, and we must get along with
as little transportation as possible
for the needs of our own country.
The previous allowance of 100 pounds
of sugar for canning was very liberal,
much more liberal than in many 9TH
er states. Those who secured 100
pound sacks have probably supplied
their canning needs for the season,
but those who have not as yet bought
their canning supplies must get their
sugar as they need it, purchasing not
more than 25 pounds at time. 1t
should be clearly understood, too,
that where it is not absolutely essen
tial to a family to have the full 25
pounds, lesser amount should be
purchased in order that no more su-
gar than necessary be drawn out of
the general supply until the accumu-
lation is sufficient to permit more lib
eral drafts for domestic purposes.
This will not work hardship on any
one, as sugar will not be drawn out
of the nations supply so rapidly and
the distribution will be more equible.
The new restriction does not have
any application to sugar purchased
for general household use, which is
to be purchased only two pounds at a
time in towns and cities, and five
pounds to rural consumers.

oddly Shaped Feet Now Get Fitted
in Army Shoes.
Two out Of every 900 men in the
Army have to have their shoes made
to order. In several camps entire
regiments have had their feet meas
ured, and hundreds of drawings were
made of odd shapes and sizes. AT
the present time the Army uses be-
tween 100000 and 100000 pairs
Of shoes month
Facts brought out in tests seem to
prove that men in the present Army
are larger than those serving in pre-
yious wars. Not only Is this shown
by the larger sizes of shoes called for,
but by the larger sizes Of outer cloth
ing that is being required. Records
in the Quartermasler Corps show
that size larger, on the average, is
being demanded in blouses, shirts,
and breeches than have ever before
been used.
