I
"Fifty-Fifty" Rule Is Superseded b>
New Food Administration Regulations
Which Permit of Larger Use
of Wheat?Victory Mixed Flours
May be Purchased Without Buying
Substitutes.
Columbia.?The 20,000.000 people
fighting Germany will eat the some
war hrpnri That iu
?... nut, i.i i 1/ oa< iiiui inr
war bread of tho allied nations will
hereafter be mixed in the snrae proportions
of wheat flour and substitutes.
The "flfty-flfty" rule, which has
been In operation in America, under
which It was required that wheat
flour be sold only in equal proportion
with substitutes, has been superseded
by new regulations just announced by
the Food Administration and which
became effective on September 1. Instead
of "fifty-fifty," tho proportion is
"eigli* y-twenty."
Under this international bread policy.
formulated by the inter-allied food
council he'd recently In "London, the
people of the all> ? countries are per- j
mitted to eat bvr'd containing morn
wheat flour than tVr have had at any
time since the beginning of the war,
and all rationing of bread among tho
allied peoples will he discontinued at
a time when tho wheat si tun* ion in
Germany and Austria In anything but
promising.
At the same time the wheat, resources
of tho allied countries will ho
conserved so as to maintain the necessary
reserves against disaster; and
for that reason St becomes necessary
for the Food Administration to promulgate
the new 'eighty-twenty" rule.
The now regulations provide for tho
mamFncfur'ng and marketing of a
mixed flour, to he known as Victory
Mixed FIotit. tvndtv certain standards
sot hv the Food Administration. Victory
Mixed Vour may ho purchased
for household u.tc "without buying subnth
uios.
Whore s'trvight wheat flour is pur
cnnr.ed. iiowi'var, twontv nor cent of
other carnal flour.-; or substitutes must
be purchased.
All bakers' bread sbnil contain 2b
)vcr cmt of 0 her cereals and the Food
Admiistrntion relies un^n the housebolder
o'f the country to' mix at least
20 per cent of b.o substitute cereal a I
into "homo baked broad.
Corn meal, 'for ime of corn bread. .
should be purchased separately from |
combination sales.
Ability to provide tbe allies with
the .new bretiVi and relaxation of the
rp9>r1t#tior?s on wheal in America was
made possible by the sacrifices of the
American people in their patriotic observance
of the con?5^r\*a'ion urogram

COM SEED PRICEj
STABILIZES IN S. G.
I
Food Administration Fixes Prioe at
$?2 Per Ton for Car Seed and $69
Per Ton for Wagon Seed?Basis of
These Prices Shown??Strict Observance
Will Result in Square Deal to
I
All Concerned. j
Columbia.?The price of cotton seed
has been stabilizeed by the Food Administration
at $72 per ton for car
seed, and $G9 per ton for wagon seed.
ih'j Lus.s oi the above prices is aa
follows: Oil at 17Va cents per pound;
meal ut $63 per ton in any quantity;
hulls at $20 per ton; lint at $0.0407
per pound.
The Food Administration is doing
all in its power to increase the price
of lint, and if the price of lint can he
increased, the difference will be shown
in the prieo of meal.
The strict observance of these
prices by all concerned wi:: result in
a square deal to all interests, says the
Food Adminlsaration.
EFFICIENT GINNING AND CLEAN
SEED WILL BE INSISTED UPON
\
Columbia.?The Food Administration
expects the prices fixed for ginning
in South Carolina to be followed
strictly. Ginning prices were fixed
recently, as follows: For ginning a
bale of 500 pounds of lint vOttotl Ct
less, $3.50 per bale. For each nddi*
tional 10 Opounds of lint cotton, at the
rate of 70 cents per 100 pounds. When
bagging and tics are furnished by
ginner, $1.50 additional. The farmer
shall have the privilege oi furnishing
his own bagging and ties.
dinners may not charge on weights
Including bagging and ties, hut the
prices announced are for not Hut cotton.
Bagging and ties weigh 25
pounds. Therefore, ginncrs must not
charge in excess of $3.50 a bale, unless
Urn weight of the bale, including
bagging and ties, is more than 525
pounds.
Efficient ginning will be insisted
Upon find clean seed must ho delivered.
Violations of these rules should
be reported to the County Food Administrator
or to the Food Administration
at. Columbia, and investigation
be made.
For ginning upland long staple notion,
such an Is grown in Darlington
and Florence counties, an additional
charge of $1.00 per bale is permitted.

*ii<u?iuuri on the western
front, are expected to determine
the nature ami time of the German
reply to President Wilson's communication
definitely closing the
j door to peace negotiation with (lorj
man autocracy. The president's
j note probably already has reached
L'criin through the Swiss fort ;gn office.
| Reports reaching Washington toI
day through offical sources by the
n ay of neutral count ies n >t only itidicated
the existence of almost chaotic
conditions in the central powers,
but also said that it was Field
Marshal von Mindmhurg himself
who was responsible for the German

peace terms and se? king an

II hat this could be only in the light oi
1 a concession to the demands of the

"Prince Maximilian, the chancellor,

of the autocratic character of
the Austrian government. It was
mid that this r.jgiht well figure in a

The same is true of the Turkish

it is believed that the prime reaj
