WHAT FASTING FEELS LIKE
University of Chicago Professor Has
Made Public the Results of In
vestigations He Has Made.

In numerous descriptions Of the ex-
periences of man in the course Of
more or less prolonged fasting, one
meets the repeated assertion that aft
'er brief initial period little or no
hunger whatever is felt. Since it has
been Well-eStablished that the sensa-
tfon of hunger is induced by a certain
type of tonic and peristaltic contrac-
lions of the empty or nearly empty
stomach, 1T must be assumed either
that these cOntractiOns are abolished
as fast proceeds or that the sensa-
tons are decidedly modified.
A professor of the University of
Chicago has lately had an exceptional
opportunity to investigate these Ques.
tons. AS the result of careful OBJ
servatiOns on man during prolonged
intentional starvation, he found that
during the 10 days complete fast and
the subsequent eight days of absti-
hence from food with daily ingestton
of cotton fiber, the gastric hunger con.
fractions of his subjects continued
with practically normal rhythm and
intensity; but the subjective sensa-
lions induced by the gastric contrac-
lions appeared to be somewhat weak
ened and tinged with an element of
general epigastric distress or sick
stomach.

1918 WHEAT TO BE SOLD ON
BASIS OF TERMINAL CHARGES

Mlllers are expected to buy wheat
on basis of terminal prices,-$2.26 at
Chicago and Milwaukee and $2.215 at
Mlnneapolis-less freight and han
ding charges, Magnus Swenson, Food
Administrator for Wisconsin, answered
inquiries made to the Food Admins
tration
"The price of wheat per bushel at
elevators based on federal grades
should be slightly less than the Chica-
go and Milwaukee price of $2.26 or
the Minneapolis price of $2.215. The
Slight decrease is allowed because of
the cost of handling at country eleva-
tor, the freight charge to terminal
market, the terminal charges includ-
ing commission, switching amounting
to 2Rc per buShel and the profit to
the local elevator.
No excessive profit will be permit
ted
IF the farmer is not satisfied with
the price offered by the miller or ele-
vatOr, he may ship his wheat to the

APPEAL TO SAVE
GASOLINE ON SUNDAY
and THE EXCEPTIONS
Every Owner of a Gasoline Using
Vehicle Asked TO Conserve Fuel
For Several Weeks To Come
To Save Fuel.

The United States Fuel Administra-
ton considers it necessary that a linn
tied conservation of gasoline be under
taken, in the states east of the Mis-
sissippi river in view of the increas-
ing demand for gasoline for war pur
poses and the paramount obligation Of
meeting promptly and fully all over
seas requirements.
An appeal is made therefore, to the
people of the United States east of the
Mississippi river to exercise rigid
economy in the consumption of gaso-
line during the next few weeks as a
necessary and practical act of patriot
ism.
War necessities are being and will
continue to be promptly and fully met
but this is a period of the year when
consumption of gasoline is at it's high
est, and the increased domestic de-
mands, together with the extensive
military operations in France, have
rendered necessary, for a limited per-
iod, the adoption of safeguards against
possible shortage.
impOssibility of differentiating be-
tween the various uses to which auto
mobiles are applied, the United States
Fuel Administration believes that the
greatest measure of economy can be
effected with the least interferences
with the business of the country
through the discOntinuance of the use
Of oil al Of ;o1o
boats, and motor cycles, on Sundays.
The United States Fuel Administra-
ton therefore, requests that in the
section Of the United States east of
the MiSSippi river there shall be a
diScOntinuance of use of the vehicles
above specified, including all such as
are operated for hire, on each Sunday
hereafter until notification that the
need for such discontinuance has
ceased.
The following exceptions are made:
l. Tractors and motor trucks en-
plOyed in actual transportation of
freight.
2. Vehicles of physicians, used in
performance of professional duties.
3. Ambulances, fire apparatus, police
patrol wagons, undertaken's wagons,
and conveyances used for funerals.
3. Railway equipment using gaso-
line.
5. Repair outfits employed by tele-
phone and public service companies.
6. Motor vehicles on errands of ne
cessity in rural communities where
transportation by steam or electricity
is not available.
In addition to the above, appeal is
made to the patriotic men and women
OF America east of the Mississippi
river, to undertake, Voluntarily addi-
tiOnal conservation in the operating
of their own automobiles, wherever
possible.
The United States Fuel Administra-
ton believes that all consumers of
gasoline will observe the spirit of this
request. In that event no mandatory
order governing the use of gasoline
will be necessary.
