WHEATLESS ORDER
REVERSED BY AVER
After July 5 Oregon VIII Be
Back On Old Fifty
Fifty Basis

After having intimated pretty close.
ly that Marion and Clackamas ,oun.
ties were not patriotic in following his
suggestion of a wheatless state, w. B.
Aver, federal food administrator for
Oregon, has practically reversed him.
self and today is sending out notices
that beginning with July 5. the state
will be put on $3.50 basis regarding
the use Of wheat flour.
1t will be remembered that Oregon
like all other states were on a $3.50
basis as to the use of bread made from
wheat flour, when Aver and his
Portland associates asked that the
counties Of the state go on an entire
ly wheatless basis. 1t seems that all
counties followed his suggestion, ex.
eepting Marion and Clackamas. These
two counties did not line up with Mr.
Aver, but agreed to go on a 25-75 basis
This was not satisfactory and he later
issued orders as tho state food admins.
traitor that the entire state should GO
on the wheatless basis.
Flour was then collected from most
Of the grocers in the city, from the
mills and from the householder. For
a time the car was set out at the
warehouse of D. A. White & Sons and
later at the Cherry City mills This
car load finally left Salem Friday
evening of last week. BY Friday OF
this week it viii be needed again in
Salem to supply the demand for wheat
flour on the $3.50 basis. Grocers who
turned in their flour last week to the
state food administration are now
obliged to order the supply carried in
stock in order to be ready for tiusi-
ness July 5. All the flour collected in
the county to be shipped to France will
be needed to supply the demands Of
the trade within week of the time it
was shipped out of the city.

 PERSHING
Corp. Louis N. Girard Writes of Visit
 of Famous American Leader

Letters just received from Corporal L. N Girard show that Le is in the best of health, and that everything is going splendidly with him. Recently he had the honor of seeing General Pershing, who came to Bordeaux. where Corp. Girard is located to re view some troops The French mud is not at all popular with the Ameri- can soldier, as told in the following letter, and has been previously told by many other soldiers, notably among these being Charles Ryan, who went so far as to say that even Elm street in the good old days, was nothing to mud at the front.
 Bordeaux, Aug. 1.
 "A line to let you know that every thing is going O. K, and that I Em feeling fine.
 "I have had the honor of seeing General Pershing during the past week, for he came here to review our regiment, and he spoke highly of our appearance.
 We had a real shower today, the first since We have been here, and it certainly seems good to have the air cooled off for an evening, as it is us ually warm until 10 or 1 o'clock.
 Il have not met anyone from Put nam, but met a fellow that l know from MiddIeboro. We have every thing that We need here. as the can teens are well stocked with American tobaccos and other things.
 Il have been to the town (Bor- deaux) two or three times and it is sure some place, but, believe me, wouldn't change it for any spot in the good old U s. A"
 It was in the letter dated August 5 that the mud is told of:
 Everything still going fine. After week or ten days of hot and dusty weather we have had three or foul rainy, muddy days. And believe me prefer the hot sun any day to the mud It is sort of clay, and sticks to the shoes like snow, and you have to scrape it off with a stick or a knife
 "Of course you have seen in thu papers that everything is going oul way over here, and it is going to con tinue to do so.
