Get Sugar Now,
Save II for Shortage
That's Coming Later

Another sugar shortage, as acute
as that In 1919. Is predicted for later
this year by wholesalers Of the COM
modify and other authorities on the
situation. They agree that from
July until, perhaps. January, sugar
will be Just as scarce and probably
scarcer than II was last fan and
winter. According TO reports COM
piled. the sugar supplies which the
United States can figure on during
1920 will amount to nearly seven
hundred thousand tons less than
were consumed in 1919,
The most rigid economy should be
practiced by housewives, say those
who arc In the trades, who suggest,
that each family purchase during
March, April and May enough sugar
to carry il thru the period from July
20 October ard the shortage will he
in fair way of being solved The
suggestion is made for two reasons
because our largest supply reaches
us in the early spring, and because
the canning season will start soon.
During the canning season every
one wants sugar and as much as she
can get, so that is the important
reason why the housewife should be-
gin buying now. However. those who
make such purchases now should
save the sugar as much as possible
and not use the extra supply for I'M
necessary consumption.
Local grocers can get sugar easier
now and are selling it in larger
quantities, some not, even limiting
the amount, but this does not mean
that there will be no shortage later.
However, this shortage Will be re-
lieved and the problem of meeting
the high summer demand will be
solved If each family will buy now
above its actual requirements and
then use the surplus during the four
months from July to October.
During March. April and May the
largest shipments are received>at the
big refineries that are hard pressed
at the time to find storage space for
the enormous supply, therefore sugar
is cheapest during those months.
Such a fact should be an incentive
to buy for later consumption. but, in
the event there is no sharp decline
in prices, one should not put off ~
ing in hopes OF lower price later.

Pressure Grease Gun.

An ingenious car owner recently
made a grease gun to operate by air
pressure. The body Of the gun was
a length of three-inch gas pipe ten
inches long. Each end Of the pipe
was threaded and provided with caps
to screw on. one being bored with
a hole large enough to take a tire
valve. This may be either soldered
or screwed on. Next long spout was
attached to the other end Of the pipe,
a hole being drilled to receive it and
sc!dsr being used in attachment. In
operation the rear cap is removed
and the pipe is filled with grease and
tho cap replaced. The compressed air
is then applied to the valve after the
spout has been inserted in the open
ing needing grease and the lubricant
is shot into the place where 1t will
do the most good.

PickETs WITHDRAWN THURS
DAY AFTERNOON FOLLOW.
ING LONG VIGIL.
SITUATION UNCHANGED;
QUIET REleNs AT PLANT
Police Answer Three Calls Thursday
to Escort Workers To and From
Plant-union Agent From Omahs
Here to Confer With Men-CouneiI
Hopes to Continue Conferences.

Picketing Of the Roberts & Oake
Packing plant by strikers ceased
Thursday afternoon, Following day
and night patrolins> of the vicinity
since the outbreak of the strike
Tuesday, which resulted in l25 en-
ployes walking out. The situation at
the plant today was said to he quiet
ard unchanged. There has been no
break in the sanks of the strikers
and none of the men, it is said, have
returned to work.
The cessation of picketing came
with the rain Thursday and as no
announcement was forthcoming from
the men as to the reason for the
withdrawal Of the pickets it is pro-
bable unfavorable weather condi.
tons drove the pickets TO cover
The strikers committee. which has
met with the city council in an ef-
fort TO settle the strike, promised TO
use it's influence in an effort to have
the pickets withdrawn. but the pick
cts remained twenty four hours fol-
lowing the conference. 1t may be
that the members Of the committee
were instrumental in having the
picketing discontinued.
Police Report Everything Quiet.
The police were called to the plant
three times Thursday to accompany
workers TO and from the place. Chief
OF Police LACE said that everything
at the plant and in the vicinity Wa.
quiet and orderly at the times the
police were there. There was no ey-
idence Of picketinS at such times,
he said.
The company officers had reported
10 the mayors Office, however, that
the picketing has been almost con-
slant since the outbreak Of the strike
until Thursday afternoon, when all
strikers left the neighborhood of the
plant.
Union Agent Visits City.
An agent Of the Amalgamated
Meat Cutters and Butcher Workers
OF America. from Omaha, is said to
have arrived in the city Thursday to
discuss the strike situation with the
men. No information regarding his
visit has been given out by the strike
committee.
His arrival. II was expected by the
members OF the city council, would
result in further efforts at mediation
thru the council, but up to noon LOT
day neither the official nor the COM
rn!ttee had put In an appearance et
the city hall, and hope for a contin-
uance. Of the discussion became more
remote.
The mayor and members Of the
council are DESTROYS Of further dis
cussions with the men. believing the
strike may be amicably settled by
the adoption of, a plan Mayor Wilson
will propose to the men and to the
company.
Apparently the men have not re-
coded in any detail from the original
dema nds. but Mayor Wilson is OF the
opinion that the plan he would pro-
pose would be acceptable to both
sides to the controversy,

is READY TO EAT
AFTER BEING WARMED
Corn Used is Golden Bantam and
Taste OF Canned Ears Very Much
Resembles Ordinary Canned Corn
Potatoes Jump to Record Price Of
St.25 a Peck.

Right now Is without doubt the
hardest time of the year 10 find a
variety OF good things to eat. We
are tired of the seasonable vegetables
and it is too early TO get fresh veg
etables without paying a fortune for
them. For those who are hunting
something new canned sweet corn on
the cob should prove life saver. II
is a novelty on the market and quite
new offering in the canned goods
line. Golden Bantam, the choicest
variety of sweet corn, is the kind
used, the cans containing five or-siN
ears and are priced at 80 cents.
With a little heating the corn is
sready to serve and has the combined
flavor of canned and fresh corn. The
process used in cooking the corn for
canning Is probably steam, for, judg-
ing from it's flavor. it does not seem
to be cooked quite as much as the
ordinary varieties of canned corn.
Those who like canned corn will
like this variety on the cob because
1t does not taste very much differ
ent.
Potatoes Reach High Mark.
Perhaps the highest price ever
reached for potatoes has been quot
ed i'm the market the last few days.
not only thru the state and country
but locally as well. During the week
the local price has been s125 a
peck, jumping from so cents to 81,
then to the higher price. Just what
is the cause no one seems anxious

laid TO the fact that 1t is nearing the
end Of the season and the supply is
running low About this time of
year the supplies laid in Tor the win
ter have been used up so those who
are out of potatoes are again in the
market for the commodity.
This creates a larger demand, con-
sequently the price goes UP some.
Its unprecedented jump this year is
due, no doubt, to spectators who
know of the demand at this time so
ask a higher price. which they are
sure of getting because we all eat
potatoes.

MARRIED IN
PRESENCE OF
EASTERN STAR
Miss Vida Condra and MIR.
Albert Hudson Have
Unique Wedding.

In the presence of the mem
bers of the Jasper lodge of thu
Eastern Star Saturday Afternoon
at Jasper, Miss Vida Condra anC
Mr.. Albert Hudson, both parties
of near Cedar Springs. were un
tied in marriage, Squire w. j
Johnson performing the cere
mony.
Thru the invitation of L. R,
Darr, who acted as master of
ceremonies, = News reporter
was in attendance, and this is
how it happened.
A telephone message acquaint-
ed Mr.. Oarr at his Office in the
Masonic building that the bridal
party were en- route from Cedar
Springs. He called the News
man and Squire Johnson being
already in attendance waiting to
tie up the happy parties, it was
proposed to transfer the cere-
mony to the lodge hall of the
Eastern Star, the same building,
the chapter being then in SEES,
sion. 1t was decided to await
the arrival of the parties first
and ask their consent, when it
would be proposed to the East
ern Star Chapter. Accordingly
on their arrival the plan was
preached, and both bride and
groom agreed to it, saying they
didn't care where the ceremony
took place. SO that there was a
wedding" The plan was then
laid before the Eastern Star
Chapter, and that they were de-
lighted goes without saying.
On suggestion of Mr.. Darr
grand march" was made imme'
diately for the lodge room, Squire
johnson in the lead, the bride
and g DOM next, Mr.. and Mrs. G.
L. Hudson and wife, of South
Pittsburg, next. followed by Mr..
and Mrs. Oscar Phelps, of Cedar
Springs, Mr.. Darr and w. c.
Hill, of the News, bringing up
the rear.
Arriving atthe rostrum, Squire
Johnson turned facing the cou-
pie, and in a jiffy the ceremony
them man and wife was
said. No particular nervousness
was manifested by anybody, and
congratulations were showered
on the couple.
The Eastern Star members ex-
pected a longer ceremony and
demonstrated with the Squire
about its brevity, but the bride
said she was satisfied she was
and that settled it.
Mrs. Hudson is a daughter of
j. A. Condra, prominent farm
err of Cedar Springs. and Mr..
Hudson is a son of Dave Hudson,
of the same community, Both
are excellent young people, and
their many friends wish them all
tie good luck possible, and the
News joins in the fluctuations.
