MORE SUGAR IS ALLOTTED

More sugar is allotted to Wisconsin
Tor December as a result of the i'm
proVement in the world sugar si>l-
ton. The signing of the armistice en-
ables us to get sugar from distant
ports.
Beginning December first, four
pounds month will be allowed each
person and four pounds for every 80
meals to public eating places
Manufacturers of Glass A, including
makers of candy, soft drinks, chew
ing gum, etc., will be given twice as
much sugar in December as they re-
ceived in November. They had been
reduced to so per cent of the amount
they used during the corresponding
months in 1917 Now they will have
the same sugar supply that they con-
sumed in those months in 1917.
Sweet milk condensaries will be
permitted to have full requirements of
sugar, and new condensaries will be
granted permission to start and to re-
ce1ve an allotment of sugar. All re-
strictiOns with reference to the use
OF sweetened condensed milk by con-
PETITIONERS, ice cream manufacturers
and others, are removed
Bakers of Glass d will also be given
an increase in sugar SO that they will
have the same amount as they used
during corresponding period in 1917.

WHEAT SUBSTITUTE
RULE IS REMOVED
RESULT OF PEACE RELEASING
SHIPS FOR CARRYING
GRAIN.
No Substitutes Need Be Used With
Wheat Flour-WiII Guard Against
Hoarders and Profiteers.

win the war over, all regulations
requiring the use Of substitutes are
abolished by the U. S. Food Admins
tratlon for Wisconsin, and white
bread made of wheat only may now
be eaten
Hotels, homes and bakers, may now
purchase wheat flour without being
compelled to buy and use one pound
OF substitutes for each four pounds of
flour. But the wheat loaf should be
eaten sparingly, however, and the
conservation Of all foods continued
Plans are now being worked out to
care for the stock Of substitute cere-
ais which millers or wholesalers have
bought before November II. Under
the new program the coarse grains
will be used primarily for animal
feeds.
Result of Peace.
The suspension of the wheat rules
has been brought about by the signing
OF peace with Germany and Austria
Merchant vessels are now released
from military service for transporting
the large wheat crops which have
been held in India, South America and
Australia. The Mediterranean route,
which was formerly closed by the
war, may now be safely used by the
cargo ships for bringing food to re-
lieve our shortage.
No Profiteers.
boarding OF food and profiteering
upon staples will be suppressed wher-
ever found. All cases must be re-
ported to the State Food Administra-
ton, and measures will then be taken
to stop it.
The Fair Price Fixing Committees
will do their share to prevent profit
eering by determining reasonable
prices for foods and publishing them
in newspapers for consumers to read
before shopping at grocery stores

Mounting Of Natural History Objects
in Their Native Surroundings
Add to Their Interest.

In the development Of the modern
museum three stages have been recog-
nized-that Of the collection of OBJ
jects for record, that of supplying ma
terfals for research and that of ap-
plying the collections to public educa-
ton. The educational idea is now be-
ing developed by instructive display
arrangement, loan exhibits for public
and private schools and special lee
lures. The most notable featu is the
mounting of natural history OBJ
jects in the midst of their native sur
roundings, and much attention is be-
ing given at large museums-such as
the American Museum of Natural His
tory of New YOrk-tO grouping ami
mails in their natural environment of
shrubs, trees, flowers, rocks and 9TH
er objects. In the new exhibition
halls of the museum of the California
Academy of Sciences, the case for
large mammal or bird habitat group
is Is feet long, II deep and Is high,
with plate glass front Is feet long
and 10 high. Each Of the two halls
one devoted entirely to California
mammals and the other to California
birds-is $50 feet long by 60 wide and
II of the large cases have been placed
in the mammal hall with six in the
bird hall. Skylight illumination gives
greater brightness in the cases than
outside, preventing troublesome re-
Election from the glass. AS a repre-
sentative group may be taken that of
the San Joaquin valley elk, species
of deer now preserved in a few reser-
vations, and this is shown by several
individuals standing or crouching in
the grass near tree-bordered water,
with low hills in the distance, the
painted backgrounds seeming con-
tinuation of the real scenery.

An elephant, in his native land, has
hard job to find what he likes to eat.
Contrary to the general belief, he will
not eat anything, but he selects care
fully the best of ROOTS herbs, fruits
and various vegetables. When in cap
t1vity, he eats about the same kind of
fodder with few exceptions, includ-
Ing pastry, bread, nuts Chiefly pea
nuts) and some other goodies which
may be offered to him. Elephants eat
no kind of meat whatsoever; they will
only eat pure grown food or clean
