These certificates read as follows: . , Date ■ ISIS. I hereby declare to the United States Food Administration that I 4desire to purchase from.. an amount df..... of sugar for my use for preserving and canning fruits and vegetables only, and that I shall return to the. dealer any surplus sugar I do hot use for these purposes. Name of Buyer P. 0. Address The Food Administration will work through the county and dis trict food administrators in hand ling the sugar situation during the canning season. Sugar certificates will be furnished the retail dealers everywhere by the county fqpd ad ministrators. and the retailers will be required' to have these certifi cates properly signed by all who purchase sugar for canning preserving, and to mail the signed certificates to the food administra tion at Columbia once j week. (Unless certificates tare signed, grocers are prohibited from selling more than two to five pounds of sugar to consumers in cities and towns, and more than from five (o tea pounds of sugar to people' living in rural communities. The sugar secured on certificates for caoning and preserving must be returned to the grocer from -whom it is bought^ if there should be any surplus after 1 canning and preserving is done. Through this regulation it is hoped 'by the food administration that there will be a supply of sugar sufficient to meet the needs of the people for canning and preserving, which is regarded as a very im portant means of conservation of food. / 7 / **************** C AN NT.NO CT.t'B .\OTKS I » !* * * *************** Dear Co-Worker: The following is a copy of a let ter we nave received from Mr W.
