SUGAR.
June 13, 1918.
Many of the ships regularly engag-
ed in our coastwise trade to the West
Indias have been withdrawn from
their regular routes and put into
trans-Atlantic service for the for-
warding of troops and supplies to |
meet the needs of the present critical
war situation. Other ships engaged
in the raw-sugar carrying trade have
recently been sunk by the submarines
now operating off our coast, and the
loss of sugar in transit to American
ports has thereby been large—ap-
proximately 13,000 tons. Present
submarine operations are also caus-
ing delays in the departures of sugar-
carrying ships from ports. :
These conditions have combined to
create a new and serious shortage In
our sugar supply, which will be in-
creasingly felt as the season advanc-
es, and which can only be met by the
utmost conservation in our present
use of sugar. ;
The following rules, effective imme-
diately, will govern the use of sugar
in all public eating places:
1. No sugar bowls or other com-
mon receptacles for sugar will hence-
forth be placed on tables.
2. All sugar service, for whatever
use, will be in individual portions ex-
clusively, and not to exceed one-half
ounce, or two lumps, per person, with
tea and coffee, or one ounce per per-
son with cereals and fresh fruits.
3. No sugar will be used for icings
or coatings on cakes or other similar.
purposes, and the making and service
of cakes and pastries requiring con-
siderable quantities of sugar should
be discouraged as far as possible.
4. No sugar whatever may be used
for making sherbets or water ices,
and every additional means available
should be patriotically employed to
reduce sugar consumption to the ut-
most.
The administration will insist upon
strict compliance with these regula-
tions, and any violations will be dealt
with promptly and rigorously.
HOWARD HEINZ,
Federal Food Administrator
. for Pennsylvania.
In addition to above the following
must be observed by retail merchants:
Sales to consumers shall be a max-
imum of two pounds of sugar 1n
towns, and a maximum of five pounds
of sugar in country districts.
The sale of twenty-five pounds of
sugar at a time for preserving fruit
is permitted on certificate as before.
Confectioners, soft drink makers,
etc., have been cut down to about one- p
half their normal supply, and consum-
ers of sugar must practice the strict-
est economy if they desire to have
any sugar at all in the near future.
Class 5 in the Baking Regulations is
served, no other wheat-containing
food may be served at the same meal.
This eliminates the service with, or
in addition to the regular bread serv-
ice, of all pies and other pastries,
cakes, crackers containing wheat,
macaroni, wheat breakfast foods, and
all other wheat-containing foods of
whatever kind or nature.
4. No hotel, restaurant or club
shall consume more than six pounds
of wheat flour for every ninety meals
served. In estimating the flour con-
sumed there must be included the
wheat content of bread and rolls and
all other bakery products, breakfast
foods and alimentary pastes.
5. No wheat products shgll be
served unless ordered. Bread or rolls
must not be placed on the table until
the meal is served, and then in indi-
vidiual portions only.

The One-man Farm.
Probably more food is brought
forth per capita of producers on an
American corn belt farm than on any
other wide section of soil on earth,
says the Minneapolis Journal. In this
belt most quarter section farms are
operated by two men in the field and
one woman in the house. These three
produce food enough for at least 50
persons.
Owing to the shortage of efficient
farm labor, a good many of these
farms are being operated this year by
one man, aided by machinery and la-
bor-saving devices. In order to suc-
ceed in such an undertaking the far-
mer must indeed be a full hand and
have a good head for affairs. But
many of them are doing it and doing
it well.
Just such emergencies as this war
labor shortage will bring to American
farming permanent efficiency methods
and equipment, ways and devices that
save steps, lifting and useless delays.
The most expensive item in farming
is human labor. Inefficient help can
work havoe on a farm. It is a univer-
sal complaint among farmers that
they had their wives wear out their
lives “working for the hired man.” In |
thousands of cases the year’s ac-
counts, if kept, would show that the
hired man is the only part to the farm
transaction that has come out of it
with a balance in his favor.
If the farm price of produce de-
clines after the war, the wages of
farm hands must decline, or the far-
mer must take up the system of ma-
chine-made crops, eliminating surplus
work in the care of stock by automat-
ic feeders, the use of gravity and gas-
oline in handling grain and feed, the
use of concrete to obviate frequent re-
pairs of buildings, the keeping of
high-class stock to save feed wasted
on inferior animals, and the use of
automobile and motor truck to save
time on the road.
Inasmuch as the cost of labor will
robably remain high, profitable farm-
ing is due to become more and more
capital, more brains and less land than
our fathers used in the days of cheap
things.
Standards
Why is it that United States Tires
are setting new records for mileage
and serviceability ?
Why is it that the sales of these
tires are constantly mounting by
leaps and bounds ?
The answer is found in the fac-
tories where United States Tires are
made. ”
Standards of construction for
these tires are higher than ever be-
fore known in the tire industry.
<
Makers of tire fabrics tell us that
the standards we have given them
for United States Tire fabrics are
higher than any previously known.
Likewise through every process
of construction from crude rubber
to finished tires—we have set new
and higher standards everywhere.
These standards work out on your
car in the practical economy de-
manded by war-times.
United States Tires will raise any
car to higher efficiency. :
There is a type to suit every con-
dition of service.
The nearest United States Sales
and Service Depot dealer will cheer-
fully aid in selecting right tires for
your requirements.

WHEAT.
June 13, 1918.
This nation has chosen to ship to
the Allies the wheat they need and to
be content with what is left.
To make what is left go around
fairly requires care, ingenuity and de-
nial.” Hence the restrictions on the
grocer, the baker, the household and
the public eating place.
* The rules governing the use of
wheat and wheat products in public
eating places are summarized below.
It is the duty of the Food Adminis-
tration to insist upen compliance, and
violations will be promptly reported
to the State Administrator.
Following are the rules governing
the use of wheat and wheat products
in public eating places:
1. Victory bread or rolls (desig-
nated as Class 1 in the Baking Reg-
ulations) may be served to the
amount of two ounces per person per
meal.
2. Corn bread, Boston brown
bread, baking powder biscuits, muffins
or other quick breads containing not
more than one-third of wheat (desig-
nated as Class 5 in the Baking Regu-
lations) may be served to the amount
of four ounces per person per meal.
Quick breads containing no wheat
whatever may be served in quanti-
ties without limit.
3. When the prescribed two
ounces of Victory bread, or other
bread, or cereal product containing
the same or a similar proportion of
wheat or when four ounces of quick
bread of the character specified as

Overwhelming Proof
Goldine Wins Again
Local Man Feels 100% Better—Wife no
Longer Helps Him.
In this man’s statement we have
overwhelming proof that Goldine is
actually rebuilding the lives of men
and women, Hundreds have forward-
ed and given their testimonials of
the wonderful benefit received. Read
this man’s story:
“L. G. Johnson is my name, and I
live at Brookfield, Pa., R. F. D. Yes,
I am a farmer, the most independent
occupation on earth but it takes good
health back of it. I am going to tell
you about some of my ealth prob-
ems, that is, the ones I have had. A
year ago I had stomach, heart, kidney
and liver trouble. I had been trou-
bled for six long years and I had doc-
tor after doctor. None, not even the
best I could find, helped me, although
they had helped others. I took medi-
cine after medicine, still I did not im-
prove. My wife would have to rub
my back before I could get out of bed
in the mornings; with no .appetite
and feeling low in weight, I was mis-
erable. It is now a year since I took
Goldine; my wife no longer has to
aid me to get up in the morning;*I
eat good and also sleep fine, in fact,
1 feel just great. To top it off, I
gained 18 pounds. If any one wants
an argument just let them tell me
that Goldine is no good.”
The above is one of the many testi-
monials from people who have receiv-
ed actual benefit.
You can secure Goldine at Green's
Pharmacy, Bellefonte, Pa. 63-25
A Second Appeal
TT weeks ago the Telephone Company re-
quested all telephone users to please refrain
from asking the operators for the correct time, ex-
plaining that this request was necessary because
of the considerable volume of such calls which,
if eliminated, would so reduce the abnormal
calling volumes as to permit of a redistribution
of both operators’ service and telephone equip-
ment, and result in the Company’s ability to
care for the very heavy telephone demands of the
present and the even greater demands for service
which are expected in the months to come.
It was explained that the same service on the
part of the operators, the same length of time,
and an equal general use of telephone equipment
are necessary to answer such questions as are
required to complete an ordinary connection.
While the response to this request has been
very gratifying and the volume of such calls has
decreased appreciably, the burden has not been
entirely lifted.
We, therefore, again bring the matter to the
attention of those users of the service who did
not tread, or who were not impressed by our
earlier appeal, urging them to discontinue the
practice of depending upon the telephone oper-
ator for the correct time.
The Telephone Company feels that it can count
on a continuation of the public’s helpful atti-
tude which will be of very real assistance in
meeting the ever-increasing volumes of tele-
phone calls and demands for telephone service.
