SUGAR REGULATION
Bicknell Says to watch the
Sugar Spoon"

In compliance with the sugar
regulations of the federal food
administration the limit of each
person to two pounds of sugar per
month instead OF three ponnds, as
heretofore, will be enforced in Idaho
on and after August 1, according to
information given out from the office
OF r. f. Bicknell Friday. Idaho
housewives are also asked to conserve
on their canning sugar as much as
possible during the present fruit and
perry seasons. 1t IS suggested that
iruit be canned without sugar as
much as possible.

Watch the sugar spoon" is the
appeal OF Food Administrator r. F.
Bicknell in connection with the re.
duced sugar allotment for August.
critical shortage of sugar through
out the country has made il necessary
for the food administration TO ask
everyone TO reduce monthly sugar
consumption to two pounds instead
of three pounds heretofore allowed.
ldaho's food administrator Satur-
day issued the following statement:
Don't hoard sugar. Buy IL as
you need 1t and keep your can.
ming supply separate from your
table and cooking sugar. Limit
your consumption strictly to two
pounds a month for each person
10 your household; cut this down
even more il you can.
"In buying your canning sugar 10
20 pound quantities the government
has your written promise that you
will not use any OF such sugar for
other than canning or preserving
purposes Do not break your promise.
Buy your table and cooking sugar in
two-pound or five. pound lots, depend.
ing oh whether you live ia town or 10
the country, according TO the regula-
tions, and make your purchases just
as few and far between as possible.
Under no circumstan make an
attempt to repeat on those purchases.
"Idaho has been allowed certain
amount of sugar for August, based
upon two pounds month for every
person in the state, and it can there
fore be readily seen that If repeaters
buy more than this they are going to
cut down the allowance Of their more
patriotic neighbors.
There is law against boarding
sugar, -four and other foodstutfs.
Those found guilty are liable to fine
Of not more than $4,000 or ,imprison-
ment for two years, or both. Retail
grocers must keep record of all
sugar sales, and repeaters will be con.
sidered food hoarders and will be
dealt with accordingly. We sincerely
trust it will not be necessary to
invoke the boarding law 10 this state.
Retailers should sell sugar only to
their regular customers, and when !
dealer suspects anyone Of trying to |
repeat 10 sugar purchases he Is eau
Toned against making the sale"
