are to be used as cut flowers, scar

as the blooms are cut. Place them
In deep water lalmost up to the

OUR RESPONSIBILITY
TO THE PHILIPPINES

The Philippine Islands are far
enough away to be out of reach OF
political mud-slinging. That is one
ol the very good explanations of
why our National Government IS
uOlng such Il swell piece of work in
restoring normal conditions in that
part of the World; where the peo-
lle are soon to hold elections under
democratic policies, and set up a
strong National Administration
The Filipinos are going at the
Job Systematically and before many
eeks they will have a new Prpsi-
dent surrounded by able counsel
lOrs and Legislative body that will
represent all the best elements of
the Islands.
The plan to give absolute free
dom to the Philippines on July {,
l91G Will be subject to prOteCtO-
rate by the United States. But this
prOteCtorate will mind its own
business. 1t, however, will help the
Philippine Government to get on Il
firm foundation SO that it can run
its own affairs. Naturally we will
continue TO watch proceedings. and
the World knows that if any nation
attempts to interfere with self
government in the Philippines, that
the United States will be on hand tC
show the intruders the shortest
way back home

Altho Bluffton residents likely will
find plenty of bread on their grocer's
shelves for the rest of this month,
the supply will get critically short
after June l, it was predicted this
week by Ohio bakers.
Flour milling, pared 259o on April
% by a government order to provide
for wheat for famine relief, actually
will be sufficient for fair bread
supply until the end of this month,
but the situation will be plenty SER
ious then, in the opinion of the men
who mill and bake for the housewife.
Spokesman for large mills point
out they will be in position to run
only II days in the combined months
of May and June, and that their

Bread Shortage Expected to Get
Critical Within The Next Month

output will be insufficient to meet the
demand of baking establishments.
1t is estimated that bakers still
have sufficient flour to permit unre-
duced operations for at least two
more weeks, but the shortage grad
ually will be apparent in drastically
curtailed supplies of bread in stores.
With bread shortage looming,
however, the hoarders at last have
found a situation that is going to be
hard to beat.
Bread gets too hard for use quick
ly if purchased in excess of actual
needs, and those who want to hoard
flour to permit home baking have
been cautioned that the new emer-
gency flour, on the market here for
two months, just won't keep.
