Laying of Bituminous Mat to
Start This Week; Chandler
Blacktop heightened.

Twelve additional blocks have been
included in the city's bituminous street
surfacing program, which is now un-
der way.
The increase was possible because
a greater area can be surfaced by the
contractors method than by that en-
ployed by the city and used as basis
for making the original estimates.
The hauling Of gravel has been COM
pleted, and the laying Of the bitum1n-
Gus mat was expected to be started
this week.
Added to the surfacing program are
Camp street, between Central avenue
and Third avenue east, and between
Sixth avenue and Eleventh avenue
east; Sixth avenue and Tenth avenue
east, both between Camp and Sheri-
dan streets, and First avenue east, be-
tween White and James streets.
An increased area of the Chandler
road will also be surfaced, extending
a distance of 2,925 feet from the pave
ment on Central avenue.

GROCERS WORK TO
COMPLY WITH ORDER

Ely grocers for the past week have
been working to comply with the or
der Of the OPA establishing ceiling
prices on food products, but the job
is proving to be big one.
The order contains 10 pages listing
hundreds Of items and their ceiling
prices which must be adhered to.
Ceiling prices are established for
four groups Of retailers, but only three
Of them are applicable here.
All local grocery stores fall either IN
group l, independent retailers doing an
annual gross business Of less than
$4,000 or, group 2, independent re-
taiIers doing more than $4,000 but
less than $25O,oO0 annually. One store
is in group 4. retailers crossing more
than $25O,OO0 annually.
Each grocer is required TO post the
selling prices for all food items listed
in the order, and a list Of the prices
set forth in the order. He must also
post a sign indicating to which group
his store belongs.
On most food items the ceiling
prices for group l and stores are the
same, although on some items group
l stores are permitted slightly high
er ceiling. A merchant cannot charge
over the ceiling price, but he can go
under it.

Here are several fire prevention rules
for berry pickers remember, that nine
out Of every ten fires are caused by
human carelessness):
1. Put cigarets, cigars or pipe heels
in water or stamp them out on bare
soil.
2. Break matches in two before dis
carding them.
3. Before building a fire scrape away
all inflammable material from spot
five feet in diameter. Build the fire in
the center and keep it small.
4. Extinguish it with water, stirring
the Goals with stick. Drench both
sides of burning or charred wood and
soak the ground around the fire.
Wood products are vital war re-
sources, the forest service emphasizes.

BERRY PIcKERS
Are CAUTIONED
Discard Smokes, Extinguish
Fires With Care, Forest
Services Warnes.

Burberry pickers are cautioned by
the forest service to use extreme care
in disgarding smokes and extinguish-
ing lunch fires.
There is always considerable dead
vegetation underneath green growths
which presents constant fire hazard,
the forest service points out. High
winds can fan smoldering sparks into
destructive fires.
Berry pickers are assured Of one
of the best crops in several years.
Many families have planned berry
picking excursions to provide supply
of canned goods for winter use. In
some areas frost has made the berries
spotty, but they are still available in
large quantities.
