: W
Columbia.?The embargo ou flour, to
J which baa boon in effect in South m
| Carolina, has been raised by order of nc
William Elliott, food administrator for h?
the State. Since May IS, during the ej
time the embargo on flour has boon th
on in this Stato, shipments of flour ac
wore made into South Carolina only Qf
on permita from the Pood Admlntstra- m
| tloo. The lifting of the embargo
means that there may be free movement
of flour into the State, without St
permits, hereafter. The embargo served
to cut down shipment of floor from cr
the mills at a critical time and through an
A period of extreme shortage so far Pu
as the wheat supply was concerned. 00
During the embargo, however, there wl
was free movement of flour from one P'
part of the State to another, and no da
section suffered, which was seen to dr
by the Food Administration. G?
With the coming in of the new so
j wheat crop there will be relief in the co
, situation, but this does not mean that *e
! the public will be relieved from wheat he
| saving. Conservation is still vitally on
, necessary. A hungry, fighting world mi
j is to be fed. Only in the United sti
j States will there be enough wheat, fo
: and the harvest will provide enough Cc
, in this country only if the people con- th
j form with the Food Administration he
, rules and regulations. fu

SUGAR OBTAINABLE an

Purchases for Household Use Limited
t
by Food Administration?Sugar Can ?
Be 8ecured for Canning and Preserving.
Columbia.?Under new regulations va
issued by the Food Administration
and which have already gone late ef- ne
fectt, sugar for household use cannot
be purchased In larger lots than twe j?'
pounds by persons residing In cities
and towns, or in larger than Bra *'
pound lots by persons residing In to-1 a<i
ral sections These new regulation* a<1
have been rendered necessary by the
Sugar shortage, which has become so- 011
rlous. It Is unlawful for any dealer 01
to violate this rule, and the seriousness
of the situation as regards sugar
calls for the most rigid economy in
its use. j
For canning and preserving fruits | U
and vegetables, which is regarded as '11
very important by the Food Admlnis-' ^
tration, sugar can be obtained In lota
up to 25 pounds, but not more than SS m<
pounds will be sold to any one per- av
son in any one month for canning s 1
and preserving. ?
It is necessary. In order to obtain ,
f on(, nral,lU|>l| VMM. ID
? ? - p
poses, that the purchaser sic*
! pledge blanks for which the dealer
has on hand, these being furnished 1'
by the Ford Administration. The purchaser
pledges himself to use the
sugar so obtained for canning and pre- 1
serving purposes only, and to return 1
to the dealer any portion of the sugar enot
used for such purpose. Dealers
will strictly enforce this rule.
The public is urged by the Food Administration
to save every possible
. spoonful of sugar. There is none to
waste. As a matter of fact, the sugar
situation is serious. Cuban deliveries
have been Rhorter than were expected.
Consumption has been larger. Subi
marine losses have been heavy, and a
j reduction of sugar consumption all
along the line becomes absolutely nee
essary. says tne rood Administration.
ONLY NECESSARY USE
OF ICE PERMITTED
Bulletin Issued by Food Administration
Points Out 8ources of Ice
Waste Which Should Be Avoided.
Calumbia?Theh necessity of conj
serving ice becomes important with the
summer months ahead, and the Food
Administration for South Carolina has
; issued a bulletin in which some precautionary
suggestions are made.
"The call for conservation of Ice is
i prompted not by any anticipated
J shortage, hut in the general interest
> of thrift and the saving of supplies
i essential to other important indus[
I tries," says the bulletin
i j The following suggestions are made
[ to Indicate sources of wastte of ice:
i i "The practice of shaving ice for
[ | restaurants. soda fountains. etc.,
i should be eliminated.
"If ice becomes scarce in a comtnui
nlty at any time, a vigorous effort
| ! should be made to curtail its use by
| concerns dealing in luxuries before
j ! anv reduction is attempted in the
amount allowed families using it In
moderation.
"Householders should be advised to
keep the refrigerator in a rool place,
to sec that refrigerator doors close
tigh't. and not to put warm food in
refrigerators to cool at the expense of
J theice.
"Ice should not he used In serving
fruit and sea food. Served direct
from the refrigerator they are cold
enough. Ice should be saved by eerrI
ing no more than necessary In glasses
of wafer, tea and other drinks.
"The public should not be hystsrical
over the danger of an actual ice fam<
ine. A* the worst, only s short accidental
stoppage la likely to occur aaywhera."
Forgetting la a strange phenomiod.
