terms the best collection of exhibits.
Although he has not secured anv

grain in sheaf. Farmers who want

tables. he should not fail to send it
to L. S. Olson, the county exhibitor.

THRESHERS AND FARMERS
CAN BUY MONTHS SUPPLY
OF FLOUR ANG SUGAR

Special regulations governing the
distribution of food to threshing
crews were announced last evening
by Federal Food Administrator E. F.
Ladd as a result of inquiries which
have been coming in from all sections
of the state.
During the threshing season
farmers and ranchers living long
distances from stores, and thresh-
ing crews will be allowed to buy
30-day supply of -four and sug-
ar. This class of workers may
buy sugar on the basis of three
pounds per person per month and
-four on the basis of 2 ga pounds
per person per week.
Farmers may take their own wheat
to the mill Or elevator and exchange
il for -four without substitutes on the
basis of 8 pounds per person per
month for each member of household
or establishment, providing the farm
er signs an affidavit as outlined in
Bulletin No. 50 which has been sent
to all millers and elevators of the
state. This privilege is also extend
ed to the farmers threshing crew.
Farmers will also be allowed to
purchase flour herafter on the same
basis as city bakers, that is with 25
per cent of substitutes instead of the
$3.50 basis. This exception is made
to give the farmer the same privt-
lege as the people of the city who
may buy victory bread from the bake
ry which contains only Is per cent
of substitutes.
It is essential that the farmers be
given the opportunity to have suffi-
cient food supplies to carry them
through the threshing season without
wasting time making frequent trips
to town for -four and sugar" said
Federal Food Administrator Laid
in announcing the new regulations.
Will Aid Threshers
Threshing crews are now prepar-
ing to purchase their seasons sup
plies of flour and sugar. 1t will not
be possible for them to use the sub
stitutes for -four and sugar as can
be done in the kitchens in private
homes in the towns and cities ard it
was deemed uEwise to handicap the
man who race the heavy responsible
ty of getting this vitality important
crop safely garnered, by new limita-
tons on their food supply.
"The threshing season is now ov-
err in many Of the states to the south,
while with us it is just beginning.
In these other states the men who
have garnered the crops have been
allowed three pounds of sugar per
month. North Dakota and Montana
harvesters and threshers are entitled
to the same treatment"
Bulletins governing the new regu-
lations will go to all merchants of
the state and to all county and local
food administrator Immediately.
