WILL. ISSUE TWO NEW WAR SAVINGS
 CERTIFICATES

Hartford, July 15. - War Savings Certificates in denominations of s100 and s1,000 will soon be available for sale in Connecticut, according to an- nouncement made today by the Con- necticut War Savings Committee. It is expected by War Savings workers throughout the state that thete will be 8 lively demand for these new cer- tf1cates as soon as their presence be- comes generally known.
 War Savings Stamps of the face value of $5 each are convertible into these new certificates, which bear the same rate of interest as the w. S. S., amoupting to nearly four and one half per cent. on stamps purchased during July. Widespread and con- ttnued saving and investment in s5 W. s. s. has caused an insistant de- mand for the issuance of a govern the safety and profit of the w. S. s. with greater convenience for the pur- chaser of large amounts. The new certificates have been issued in re- sponse to that demand, and also to provide a medium for investment of the funds of fraternal organizations labor unions, and other civic and so- cia1 units which have signified their willingness to invest their money in Government securities.
 The s10o certificates are con- vertible into $1.000 certificates. The S1,00O limit of investment for each individual will be continued.

FORD SAVED 10
 MILLIONS ON TWO GOVT. CONTRACTS

A gentleman from Detroit, writing about Henry Ford, said this: The government gave the Ford organiza- ton the contract for making cylinders for Liberty motors; the estimated cost was s19 each. The Ford organ ization made them so fast and so good that the whole job was handed over to them and when the work was completed they were billed to the government at Ss.25 each, saving hundreds of thousands of dollars
 This statement is so different from business transactions that most men and firms had with the United States government that the editor of the Commercial Appeal wrote to ask If 1t was really true. Here are the facts:
 The Ford people were approached l early in the Liberty engine campaign and asked to take a contract for cylinders. At that time a contrac. had been placed with a concern in the east for these cylinders at $19 each. The experimental cylinders which were originally made were drilled from solid blocks of steel and cost about $40. The Ford people took a contract for 100000 cylinders at SS.25 each. The company proceed ed to design jigs and dies and the
  contract was completed the Ford peo- pie received another contract at SS.25. The firm returned the contract and stated that the price should be SS, which would let the company out, in spite of the fact that labor and material had rapidly risen. The cost of the changes and extra equip ment was charged off in the first contract.
 At the time of the armistice Ford had manufactured 69,000 cylinders at cost of ss each. Thus the Ford firm was able to save the government s11 a cylinder, or $5,O00.000 on the contract.
 The government usually paid $1,- 200 for caissons. The Ford firm took a contract for $500 and billed them to the government at less than $500 each.
 The Ford firm sold to the govern ment 29,oGO Ford motor cars of diff ferent styles and types at a discount of 15 per cent off of the regular price.
 We presume the Ford Company made a fair profit on all of these un- dertakirgs, but in these two instances the government saved $10,OO0,O00 on it's contract.
 If other firms in the country and other individuals had dealt with Uncle Sam as did tho Ford Motor Company our supplies for the war would have cost us about 50 per cent. of the actual amount paid out.
 Henry Ford, or the controlling spirit of his organization, in his at- titude toward his government. is a fine model for other men to follow, but many in byisiness who obey h

Man
 Says Wife Suffered Much
Mir. H. C. Baldwin an employees of the U. $. Housing Co.,, and residing at 6S2 Beechwood st., this city, tells experience his wife had with CINOT.

MT Baldwin says, My wife has
 been a sufferer from constipations since her early childhood; she has
 tried in many ways to get relief and nothing seemed to help her. She took pills and salts. and as usual with those remedies the more she took tho more she had to take. On the advice of a friend she began using CINOT' and instead of increasing the dose aS time goes on she is reducing it and
 getting better results each day. The one fact of her being able to reduce the dose convinces us that she will get permanent results in connection
 with the good that CINOT is doing her for the constipation. She is feel-S ing better in every way, her general health is building up, and we are pleased to recommend 1t.
 CINOT Is the pure juice of nature's herbs and has no iron or any other mineral in it that will hurt the teeth or ruin the digestion. It has remark-1 able curative powef because 1t works in natures way. If you suffer from sick and bilious headaches, feel rum down and tired out. have a sour actdz dizzy spells, rheumatlexa, feel tired and achy in your Nnnb6 o7 have backache try CINOT. ItfwtflE more than surprise you. It has re-; lieved others and it will relieve you<$

EXCUSES BUT NO
 REASONS GIVEN FOR SUGAR SCARE
Bridgeport Wholesalers Out
 But Don't Know Why.

we don't know the reason for the sugar shortage" said a representative of Miner, Read & Tullock, the whole sale grocers Many excuses are given but no reasons. It Is fact that we are all out of sugar and have been for some days. It Is said that there is a big export demand, but we don't know, you had better asR the sugar brokers in New York perhaps they will tell you, we can't find out"
 stoddard & Gilbert said that they have no sugar and have had none for more than a week. There is plenty of raw sugar and plenty of refined sugar in the country, but the 5obbers refuse to take any more orders and also refuSe to fill the orders which they have had for some time. Some times they say the difficulty is labor troubles and sometimes it is the great export demand.
 A representative of Comstock 6, willett said that while there was shortage he thought that the least said about it the better. He said that his firm had distributed 100 barrels last week among the retail grocers of the city.
 The sugar crop this year was the

 The Equalization Board is a gov ernment board which has entire con- trol of the sugar in the country and whatever they say goes. Their au- thority is absolute and will be until December 1.
 There has now been an embargo put on sales of sugar for export for 30 days and this ought to help some :n the future but there can stili be shipments of the sugar that has been already sold, and there have been
