WHAI CATARRH IS

Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness of
the body and local treatments in the
form of snuffs and vapors only irntate
and do little if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat
its cause by enriching your blood with
the oil-food in Scott's Emulsion which
is a medicinal food and a building
tonic, free from any harmful drugs.
1t is helping thousands. Try it.

Requirements Of FOOd
Regulations.

Charles f. Huber OF Wilmington,
has been appointed chief Of the bak-
ing division of the Food Administra-
tion for the State of Delaware. Mr..
Huber will devote several days each
week To personal visits among the
bakers of the state aud will endeaVOr
to keep the baking Nade correctly in
formed on the rulings Of the Food Ad-
muistration regarding the use Of
wheat -four and its substitutes.
Ar Huber has had much experience
as one of Wllmington's leading bakers
and is devoting his time free of charge
Ia order that the baking trade of Della
ware may not be accused of lacking
interest in the food conservation pro-
gram.
In the first months of conservation,
the housewives of the country were
often heard to complain: But what
is the use of our trying to save fsod
in our kitchens when waste on so
much larger scale is everywhere ~
ing on, among the men, in public eat
ing places, on trains, in the manufac-
ture Of food. ete."
This may have been true some
months ago. But It is no longer fair
complaint. The men OF the country.
both In business and in private, are
doing their bit in n patriotic effort to
conserve the worlds food.
Since the increasing need for saw
ing wheat has been made plalh by the
L. g. Food Administration many ho-
tells and restaurants all over the
country have voluntarily pledged them
selves to do without wheat until the
new harvest.
And now an effort is to be made to
increase the coming wheat harvest by
cleaner threshing Il has been estl-
mated that three bushels OF grain in
every 100 threshed can be saved by
better methods. Where grain has been
exceptionally poorly threshed as much
as 10 per cent has gone into the straw
stack In some instances the farm
erS of the central west Refreshed old
wheat stacks last fall, adding consid-
NANbAa ~ AAAHAA AAuAM olbAEaa IL NUi-
rect this waste has become very i'm
portant with oar war time needs and
the Food Administration Grain Cor
pOration has this year established a
special Grain ThreshIng Division to
start a campaign Of education and ac-
tual help among the farmers of the
country.
Still another effort to Increase the
-four output during this crisis is be-
ing made by urging farmers not TO
hold over any Of their crop for seed.
Even II we have only a normal crop
there is little fear that any risk would
be run in not holding over seed for
next years sowing. During the next
three months every bushel of grain
that can be recovered may play a lead !
ing role in the drama Of war. Wheat |
saving Is not alone a matter of using |
less in the cOuntry's kitchens, but OF |
recovering more in every possible |
way, whether it be from the wheat |
stacks or the farmers seed sacks.

II has been known here for some

and 100000 tons OF java sugars have
been made to the sugar equalization
board sipee the, first of the month
These offers have been given serious
consideration. The one obstacle to
the purchase Of these sugars by the
board In the past has been the lack of
American tonnage to move them, and
the prohibitive freight rate asked by
the Dutch steamship lines, Now that
these obstacles bid fair to be removed
through diplomatic agreements, there
Is every reason to believe that the
board will avail Itself OF tm opPortu

sOnablenesS Of the new sugar ration of
two pounds per person monthly by
making so pounds Of sugar do for the
serving Of 5000 meals. This covered
the use of sugar for all purposes, it is
stated. 1t was done by using honey,
maple syrup and other substitutes in
most Of the desserts and eOnfning the
use of white sugar almost exclusively to
seEYing with tea and coffee.
Thus, ID is pointed out, sugar was
used at the rate of only enc pound for

but it is not thought improbable that
some of the sugars will come TO East
ern ports, where return cargOcs can
be most easily obtained. ~
So far as can be learned, this pro
gram for moving the Java sugars has
not as vet been definitely settled, nor
has the sugar equalization board made
any purchases of them as yet, but it
is safe to say that there is every rea
son to believe it will go through.
These sugars, 1t is estimated by the
sugar men now in Washington, would
cost when landed close to 900 cents,
which would put them on approximate
~ the same basis as the present duty
paid, cost and freight basis Of Cubas.
The proposition has attracted consid
cradle interest here, and the cOnsum-
nation of such an arrangement for
