NiEATLEss ORDER MODIFIED.
Restrictions REDUCED in Hope OF Ad-
ditdOnal Flour Saving.

, Washington, March 3-Temporary
suspension Of the meatless meals
and Of the special restrictions against
the use Of pork on Saturday was an
nounced by the food administration
tonight as REIMBURSEMENT OF It's food
conservation program. Increased
meat production and the necessity
for still greater saving in wheat, 1t
was declared, make the change advis-
able.
'The suspension is made effective
fol an Indefinite period and it proba-
bly, will last for three months or Ion
ger.
Since all restrictions on consump-
tion Of mutton and lamb have been
lifted previously, the food adminis-
tration now asks the public for the
time being to deny itself in meats

self curtails the use Of wheat, and for
the present there is no intention to
change the restrictions already in
force against -four.
In statement setting forth the
reasons for the change Food Admin
istrator Hoover said:
Reduce Breadstuffs Consumption.
"The allies have made further in
creased demands for breadstuffs.
These enlarged demands are caused
to some degree by shortage in arri-
walls from Argentina. 1t is therefore
necessary for the administration to
urge still further reduction in the
consumption of bread and bread
Stuffs generally, If we are to meet
our export necessities.
Experience shows that the con-
sumption OF breadstuffs is intimately
associated with the consumption of
meat. For various reasons our sup
ply Of meat for the next two or three
months Is considerably enlarged and
we can supply the allies with all the
meat products we have transportation
facilities for and at the same time
somewhat increase our own consump-
tiOn. In these circumstances, the
food administration considers it wise
to relax the voluntary restrictions of
meat consumption to some extent
with a view to further decreasing
breau consumption.
80 long as the present condition
continues the only special restrictions
we ask are the beefless and porkless
Tuesday. The meatless meal and the
porkless Saturday are no longer
asked"

sadness among her many relatives
and friends In Oconee and elsewhere
"She was married 43 years ago to

Trotzky, says that the Bolshevik del
egation, after signing peace with Ger
many, is proceeding toward Petro-
grad, where the text OF the agree
ment will be imm ediate1y published.
Ratification Of the treaty, fixed for
Thursday, depends on the decision Of
the all-Russian Congress of Councils
of workmen's, peasants and Cos
sacks deputies, which will assemh!e e
at Moscow March 10.
Supplementary treaties between
the Central powers and the Bolshe-
viz government were signed at
Brest-Litovsk in addition to the main
peace treaty, according to a tele-
gram from Amsterdam, which gives
no details OF the treaties.
AS the German official statement
of Sunday night mentioned only the
cessation Of operations in Great Rus
sia, 1t Is inferred in some quarters
here that the German advance in the
Ukraine and Finland will continue
while the Germans reserve for them
selves free hand outside the limits
Of Great Russia.

The fire crossed the street and caught

O few moments before this was also
destroyed. Heroic effort was made

reason the situation was very delicate
and required very careful treatment

Information is wanted regarding
the exact terms Of the peace signed
at Brest-Litovsk and It is pointed out
that there is as yet no assurance that
the terms agreed to by Lenine and
Trotzky would be acceptable to the
Russian people. Should there be a
resumption OF the Russian defense
against Germany, that fact would
have an effect upon the situation in

sible friendly agreement between

Profit From Dust.

There is q cement plant at River
side, Cal, that was formerly the source
of great annoyance to the owners Of
the orange groves nearby because of
the clouds of cement dust that settled
on the orange trees. The dust also
proved injurious to the employees or
the plant. Those facts and the result
abate the nuisance by installing an APP
paratus called q precipitation, which
precipitates the fine dust by electrical
action before it leaves the exhaust
stacks. The recovered dust particles
were found to contain potash In the
form Of crystallized salts, product
that Is so scarce and valuable at the
present time, when no potash can
reach us from Germany, that the Riv-
erside company now devotes its entire
attention to recovering the potash,
and treats the cement as by-product.
The sales of potash pay the entire OPP
Grating cost of the plant and reason
able profit besides, and the cement,
now produced at the rate Of 5000 bar
rels day, is so much clear gain for
future sales. There Is no immediate
market for so much cement; so most
Of 1t Is stored In bulk. Thus an ap-
paratus installed to safeguard the
health of the workers and to abate a
nuisance has changed the whole char
acter of the industry and become a
source of unexpected profit.-Youth's
