BROTHER MEETS HIS
SISTER FOR FIRST
Time IN 10 YEARS

HAGERSTOWN, May 30.-After be-
ing lost to each other for more than
ten years, Mrs. Anthony Hover, of this
town, and Harry E. Miller, of Detroit,
Mich, brother and sister, are again
united Mr. Miller is now the guest
of his sister for the next few days.
How the family became separated,
and how the two became reunited is a
story which neither cares to relate. 1t
is known however, that the separation
dates from the time Mrs. Hover re-
moved to Oregon some ten years ago.
Both brother and sister at that time
resided in Cambridge City, Mr.. Miller
holding position as a commercial
traveller, and it is presumed that in
the long journey taken by the Hover
family, letters were lost in the mails,
and long periods without hearing from

PLEA IS AGAIN
ISSUED FOR THE
SAVING OF WHEAT
Rigorous Conservation Is
Urged to Supply Army and
the Allies.
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, May 31-The ma
ton was warned again today by the
Food Administration that there must
be no relaxing in the rigorous conser-
walton of wheat if the necessary ship
ments are to be made to the American
fighters over seas and the allied
peoples.
Every prospect of the wheat stu
alton, both present and future" said
the warning, 'intensifies the need for
the greatest possible limitation in the
American consumption Of wheat and
wheat products. If the. present re-
strictions should be in the slightest de-
gree relaxed it would result in serious
want for the people of Europe before
the new crop can reach the market.
"The Food Administrators estimate
of the position on June l indicates
total available supply until the new
harvest Of about 100000 900 bushels. or
this 30,000,000 must be exported before
new wheat is available for export II
we are to maintain the absolutely nee
essary shipments to the army and the
allies. That leaves about 26,OOO,O0O
bushels for domestic consumption for
the next two months.
Normal American consumption is
something over 100000 months, so
that the most liberal consumption at
home would only be on third Of nor
NAL.
State Administrators meeting here
this week were unanimous in their
view that even if the coming harvest
does prove abundant it will be the first
duty of the American people to place
every grain they can save in storage
to build up a reserve against possible
bad years ahead. In consequence,
there should be no anticipation of IN
limited wheat bread until the war IS
over"

PAY CHECKS MISSING
Osawatomic Warrants Arc "Somc-
where in Express Cars

Nearly 400 warrants for employees
of the Osawatomie State hospital have
been lost by the express company and
the employees must wait for their pay
checks until the warrants can be
duplicated. Every person on the hos
pital pay roll must provide the state
with affidavits and bonds to make
certain that the checks will not be
caShed.
The bundle of warrants amounted to
s26.617.3S. A value of $50 is the ex-
press company insurance. It is doubt
full if this sum will pay the expense
of providing duplicate warrants and
meeting all of the incidental charges
in connection with sending new war
rants to the hospital. The loss of the
bundle of warrants is the first to oc-
cur in the history of Kansas. In the
last thirteen years only ten warrants
have been lost. Each was lost in the

NOT A GERMAN PLOT
Ground Glass in Butter-Krust Bread
Result of Careless Packing.

The finding of ground glass in sew
eral loaves of Butter-Krust bread at
Ozawkie which caused a report of the
affair to be turned in to the United
States marshal, has been explained
satisfactorily to that official, it was
announced today. Packing bread in a
carton which had been used to pack
electric light bulbs resulted in the
glass particles in the bread, NJ. Alex
ander, one of the proprietors of the
bakery, told Wood.
After the glass particles were dis
covered Alexander went to Ozawkie
where he made an investigation. He
found the carton in which the ship
ment was made and discovered that
it had been used to pack electric light
bulbs, several of which had been
broken. Carelessness of a packer at
the bakery in not cleaning out the
carton resulted in the broken glass
going thru the bread wrapper and
into the bread. A part of the carton
was taken to Topeka, where e was
shown to United States Marshal Wood

Extensive Use of Potatoes Has Given

If potatoes are good in Germany
they are good in the United States and
since we have a surplusage they can

Practically complete returns today
from every county give:
Lenroot, Republican, 14S.3O2.
Davies, Democrat, 1862.

mans and Socialists-went to Berger.
On the strength of that, managers
of both '1oyalty'' candidates were
iubilant over the fact that the COM

prove practically three times as great
as the Berger total.
