MIX FLOUR AND
SUBSTITUTES
Food Administration Does Not In.
tend That Wheat Flour
Shall be Used
Alone,

Inc food administration Is inform
ed that IN some Iowa communities
householders incline to the use of
white flour only in making bread and
are using the twenty per cent of sub
sdtutes for other purposes.
This is not the correct spirit of con.
serVaton. The idea of the food ad-
mln1stration is that all substitutes
should be used in making bread, ex-
cept corn meal and as soon as the
FEDERAL tax on mixed nours is re-
pealed 1t is hoped that very little
straight wheat flour will be sold. but
that the people will come to the uni
"ersal use of flour mixed in proper
t1on of eighty percent wheat and TWEEN
ty per cent subs titutes.
This is the bread that is used by
our associates in the war, and the food
administration believes that as long
as we are all at the same table, some
of us should not expect better food
than the others

WILL
CONTEST MOVES
Proponents of the Instruments Move
to Dismiss the Contest by
the Widow on Legal
Grounds.

The machinery of litigation In the
probatfng of the will of Conrad Sea-
bold revolved again when a motion
to strike was filed in the district
court today. Last week the will was
contested by the widow, Mrs. Maggie
Seabold, who claimed that her hus-
band was not competent to make the
will and was under influence when
the instrument was drawn up.
In the motion filed today the pro-
ponents allege that Mrs. Seabold has
no legal right to contest or interfere
with the probate of the will at this
time.
The following reasons why the
pleadings of the contestants should
be struck from the files are cited in
the motion:
First, because the contest is imma-
ture, untimely and unwarranted as it
appears the decedent died testate.
Second, because it appears that
Conrad Seabold died testate having
left a will dated November 4. 1909
and filed with the clerk of the dis.
trict court at Keokuk July %. 1918
Third, because it appears that ths

WOMEN
BADLY NEEDED
"A Rush Order for Comfort Kits Meets
Unusual Apathy Among the
Women Workers of
the City.

Services of Keokuk women are
badly needed to help in the making
of comfort kits in the garment shop
at the Young Women's Christian
association.
The Keokuk Red Cross was called
upon to furnish a quota of $500 COM
fort kits. This was large enough in
itself, but the order, too, was a rush
one.
Not many women at present are
working on the quota. An urgent call
is extended for more women to come
and help that the chapter can COM
plete its work on time. This is not
an order for Christmas, but is the
regular work of the Red Cross.
