Yoward Heinz, State Food Ad-
ministrator, So Assures
People of Pennsylvania,
Wheat can be cut out entirely from
We diet without injury to health. This
assurance is given to the people of
Pennsylvania by Howard Heinz, Fed-
azal Food Administrator for the state.
Me said:
“IT make this assertion without re-
servation, on the authority of the most
eminent scientists in America, who
®ave investigaied the question most
shoroughly. They conducted their in-
westigation recently at the request of
Herbert Hoover, U. S. Food Adminis-
trator. The Board of Inquiry was
gomposed of such men as Dr. R. H.
Chittenden, Professor of Physiological
Chémistry, Dean of the Sheffield Scien-
gific School at Yale; Dr. Graham Lusk,
Professor of Physiology at Cornell;
Pr. E. V. McCollum, Professor of Bio-
Chemistry at John Hopkins; C. L. Als-
perg, Chief of the Bureau of Chemis-
wy of the U. S. Department of Agri-
«alture; Dr. F. C. Langworthy, Chief
af the Home Economics Division, State
Extention Service, Department of Agri-
ealture; Dr. Alonze E. Taylor, Profes-
sor of Physiological Chemistry at the
University of Pennsylvania. The other
members of the board are men of equal
prominence in scientific achievement.
Xo group of higher physical authority
would be assembled in America. To
ahem was put this question: ‘To what
sxtent can wheat to which we are now
aecustomed in our diet be reduced
without injury to the health of the
. ®mdividuals of the nation?” Their ans-
wer was: ‘It is the scientific opinion
af the committee that in a mixed diet
wheat may be entirely replaced, with-
sut harm, by other available cereals,
gamely, rice, barley, corn and oats.’
“It is only because of the great na-
gional and international emergency
which exists that the Food Administra-
gion makes use of this deliberate judg-
ment of the physiological experts call-
2d in for advice. It is recognized that
mecause of economic and commercial
reasons not all of the people of the
gountry can go without bread based on
wheat, but it is certain that a great
many people can do so easily, and it
fs my belief that most of the people
in this country who can dispense en-
girely with wheat from now until the
gext harvest ought to do so, for the
sake of maintaining the wheat bread
supply for the armies and civilians of
eur fighting associates in Europe, as
well as for our own soldiers’ in
W¥rance.”
FOOD LICENSES REQUIRED
Xl
Wholesalers and Jobbers Come
Under the Federal Act.
All wholesalers, jobbers, brokers or
gommission dealers in food supplies
must take out a license to do business
ander the food regulations whether
#eir annual business in the gross
amounts to one hundred thousand dol-
mrs or not. Dealers who are strictly
getailers are exempt from the neces-
sity of a license if their gross annual
snisness is less than one hundred thou-
sand dollars. Dealers doing a combi-
sation wholesule or jobbing and re-
wiling business no matter how small
must take out a license. Any person
who makes any sales to retail dealers,
Betels, restaurants or public bakers
#& a wholesaler or jobber and is “re-
gpired to take out a license.
The foregoing points with reference
#@ the interpretation of the Federal
Food Control Act were brought out
»y Howard Heinz, Federal Food Ad-
ministrator tor Pennsylvania. Mr.
Heinz desires to make it clear that
the rule requiring licenses applies to
all wholesalers and jobbers regardless
of the volume of business they trans- |
act. .

sibilities to be trampled down.

MOVEMENT TO SAVE
THRESHING WASTE
Assistance to Farmers in Har-
~ vest Time Planned hy
the Government.
A project
threshermen to save millions of pounds
of wheat, now lost by inefficient
threshing practices, is announced by
Howard Heinz, U. S. Food Adminis-
trator for Pennsylvania.
To do this, a special Grain Thresh-
ing Division has been created as a
part of the Food Administration Grain
Corporation in Washington, with Cap-
tain Kenneth D. Hequembourg, U. S.
R,, at its head. Captain Hequembourg
is actively engaged in wheat produc-
tion in Oklahoma, and for some years
has had first-hand experience in
threshing operations. The Grain
Threshing Division will have national
headquarters at the office of the U. S.
Food Administration Grain Corpora-
tion, 42 Broadway, New York City.
It is estimated that from one to ten
per cent of the wheat crop is lost to
the country by hurried and careless
operation and inefficiency of threshing
machines. In some instances, how-
ever, losses are materially greater
than in others. Waste in threshing
depends largely upon the condition of
the machine as it enters the harvest
field and the care with which it is
operated.
It is estimated that a total of three
and one-quarter bushels in every hun-
dred threshed may be saved.
Threshermen’s assistants will be’ lo-
cated in each state to co-operate with
threshermen requiring expert help.
The threshermen’s assistants will be
called upon by County Threshing Com-
mittees whenever needed. Their duty
will be to advise in overhauling the
machines, to assist in acquiring expert
labor, to supervise repair jobs when
the owner so desires and the time per-
mits. The County Threshing Commit-
tees will be composed of the Counts
Food Administrator, the County Agri-
cultural Agent, and a retired thresher-
man representing the state or local
Council of the National Defense.
CLEAN YOUR FARM TOOLS
Necessity Exists Now For Strictes:
Conservation of Machinery.
M. T. Phillips, one of the farmers’
representatives in the U. 8. Food Ad-
ministration for Pennsylvania, sug-
gests to farmers of the state the ad-
visability of a special care this year
in the matter of farm machinery in
view of the seriousness of the manu-
facturing situation and the scarcity of
materials. Mr. Phillips said:
“The present high cost of all farm
machinery and repairs of all kinds
makes it most essential that every
“ara should be exercised in keeping in
order all machinery, tools, etc. used
on the farms.
“ It takes but little time to rub off
the dirt and rub some oil on the har-
ness, at least a few times during the
year. This will preserve the leather
that is so expensive and necessary
just now,
“Clean up the machinery and tools
and see that they are repaired when
put away, and if kept under cover
when net in use, they will be ready to
go to work when next needed.
“We farmers are justly criticized
for the extravagant waste caused by
4
carewof our machinery.
“This is surely a very necessary way
to conserve in these serious times.”
There's not a pair of legs so thin,
there's not a head so thick,
There's not a hand so weak and white,
nor yet a heart so sick,
But it can find some needful job that’s
crying to be done,

tion of Food Supply.
The food administration is pleased
to pieces with the New York hotels for
saving more than a thousand barrels
of flour a week and some 17 tons of
meat a day by these wheatless-meat-
i less occasions that are so popular now,
a writer in Collier's observes. Pro-
vision dealers report a falling off in
sales, and all is lovely and statistical.
Tis a fair picture to gaze upon, but
honor where honor is due! That pa-
tient hero, the hotel patron, ought to
come in for. a few kind words, since
he pays the full price and eats the
half portion.
“Save wheat—use corn”—bread is 10
cents, corn bread is 15 cents. As a
transient consumer, the other noon, we
paid 90 cents for a slice of beef as
large as a postal card, plus one table-
spoonful of creamed potatoes, plus a
bit of Yorkshire pudding about the size
of a watch. No doubt it was all that’
was good for us, but the price was
more. If the widely known principles’
! of economics are still working, we:
| helped make meat and bread cheaper.
| and paid as much as if we were mak-
ing them dearer.
A patriot is a noble thing, but isn’t
it better to be one than to trim one?
| The hotel keepers of Manhattan are
| playing both sides of the game and the
food administration furnishes a jazz
band of statistical admiration for their
efforts. These bonifaces who are
shrinking the meals and swelling the
prices need something all right, but
not governmental encouragement.
Meanwhile the hotel user can féel sure
that the war has not changed his func-
tion at all—he’s the paying. goat now
Just as he used to be.
HOLD WOOL IN THIS COUNTRY
' War Trade Board Takes Steps to
Meet the Requirements of Both
the Army and Navy.
Restrictions governing the exporta-
tion and importation of wool were
tightened recently by the war trade
board with a view to conserving Amer
ican supplies and checking the increase
in prices, which have risen 200 per
cent.
No commodities containing wool will
be permitted in future to leave the
country, it was announced, if, in the
judgment of the board, the wool is
needed for the uses either of the army
or the navy.
Importers before they can obtain li-
censes will be required to sign an
agreement that they will sell no wool
to persons other than manufacturers
and that they will give the govern-
ment an option to purchase all wool
imported at a price 5 per cent less
than the price that obtained for the
same grade July 30, 1917.
The proposal for a national
railway passenger ticket, good at any
time and anywhere until its mileage
is exhausted, a proposal, by the way,
that has been rejected on first sight
by every privately employed railway
official to whom it has ever been sub-
mitted, comes forward with new force
and vigor, now that the railroads have
pessed under government control.
Why is not a universal railroad tick-
et feasible, as feasible, say, as a uni-
versal treasury bill or federal reserve
bank note? Why should not one, in
future, buy mileage at a postoffice, as
one now buys postage or thrift
stamps? There is no good reason
why it should not be possible for one
to carry about with him mileage tick-
ets in denominations corresponding to
currency denominations, and as free-
ly convertible into transportation as
is money into commodities.—Monitor.
