germs, if the liver is inactive and the
blood impure
What is needed most is an increase in
the germ-fghting strength. To do this
successfully you need to put on healthy
flesh, rouse the liver to vigorous action,
so it will throw off these germs, and pu-
rify the blood so that there will be no
weak spots" or soil for germ-growth.
We claim for DR.. Perce's Golden
Medical Discovery that it does all this
in way peculiar to itself.
It cures troubles caused by torpid liver

Works Among Boards Of Trade With

Within the past week considerable
progress has been made throughout

of every property holder and resident
interested in the welfare of the State,
the work which is being undertaken
by the Patrol Committee among

Five main points are set forth in

Committee, that the name Patrol

the State system of patrolling roads.
The name was by chance given to the
committee at a group meeting of
Boards Of Trade held recently in Man.
chester
Enthusiasts for better roads in the
State are rallying to the support of
the Patrol Committee and a. very
strong sentiment is being created
which will result in the drafting Of
certain legislation to present to the
incoming legislature.
An idea Of the Importance of the
question is given in the statement
that there are 1900 miles of highway
in the State. Those who are familiar
with these roads realize that there
has been vast Improvement IN them
within the last four or FIVE years
Starting with the restricted system Of
patrolling. in five years the number Of
men engaged on road patrolling duty
has been raised from three to one
hundred eightone. A system by
which towns contribute certain sum
OF money each year still prevails.

THREE POUNDS OF
SUGAR PER MONTH
Increase Of One Pound Per Month
Per Person Beginning Nov. I, Is
Permitted.


Montpelier, Nov. Frank H.
Brooks, Federal Food administrator
for Vermont. this morning announced
that beginning today, householders
will be permitted to purchase and use
sugar on the basis of three pounds a
month per member of the family
while hotels, restaurants and other
public eating houses may purchase
and use sugar on the basis of three
pounds per ninety meals This is an
increase OF one pound month over
the allowance that has been granted
for several months.
The reason for this unexpected but
welcome announcement in regard TO
the sugar allotment are given by Mr..
Brooks as follows:
The rapid manufacture of the new
crop of beet sugar in the west. the
new crop of Luisiana cane sugar in
the South. together with the freer rail
way transportation conditions, the re.
auctions that we have made in the
consumption Of sugar in the manufac.
turing trades, and the patriotic con.
servation in the past four months.
permits an increase in the household
allowance OF sugar from two pounds
per person per month to three pounds
per person per month, with the same
ratio to public eating places This
makes good on the promise to in
crease the household allowance of
sugar at the earliest possible moment
that supplies would justify il
makes it possible for the householder
TO more freely use the apple. Gran.
berry and grapefruit products and TO
use the fruits canned during the
summer without sugar.
The regulations are also revised
TO the extent that any person may pur |
chase his whole family monthly al. |
lowance at one time If he so desires.
or person may purchase half !
supply for the entire family |
in one purchase This, therefore. per.
miis a choice between the two per
missible purchases, the half months |
supply or the supply for the entire
month.

lay at the food offices was that gen.
