I am advised by Mr. Arthur M. Churchill, State Conservation Chairman, that all but two coun ties in Oregon have gone on a voluntary wheatless basis. Port land millers and jobbers have recently adopted a resolution un dertaking to sell no more wheat flour within the state until July 1, the action after that time to be determined by the general wheat and flour situation. Window cards are beinc nrs pared for all retail dealers who are cooperating m the volun tary "no flour sales" program, as a recognition bv the Food Ad ministration . of the loyalty of these dealers. . As a result of this general ac tion toward conservation of wheat I was informed at the millers and jobbers- meetiner in Portland that the sales of wheat flour have been reduced to slightly over 25 per cent of last years consumption. Oregon can surely claim to be doing its patriotic share in feeding the starving among our Allies and supplying the wants of the boys "over there. " An unexpectedly large num ber of families are turning, flour over to the government in re sponse to the recent call. We hope to accumulate this flour du ring the present week for ship ment to Portland where the Milling Division will prepare it for immediate export by one of the Portland built ships. All dealers in the county are authorized to receive from loyal people who desire to turn it over to the government, any flour which is in good condition, pay ing therefore the retail . price paid by the purchaser, the deal ers drawing upon the State Food Administrator for the amount so paid. Yours truly, CHAS. E WELLS. County Administrator. BOY SCOUT NEWS. Whin the War is Over, Laddie. (Continued from Page S) J And make them use shillelahs, ; and bricks of Irish clay;.

' One of the boys who went out overnight took only enough food for one meal and expected it to last for two. When he got home he felt starved . , i As there are said to be coyotes out there, and as it is rumored that there is a wolf, they put a guard around camp. The watches were divided so that two boys kept -watch from bed time to midnight, and then two more from midnight till morning. But they practiced scouting during the time they stayed. SCOUT SCRIBE.

Flour Sent to France (Continued from first page.) that is just now," said County Food Administrator Wells, yes terday. "It is such citizenry as this that makes it possible for this country to face a situation such as was shown by the Food Survey May 1 without despair. That survey showed a visible SUDDly of 23 million bushels of wheat as against 58 million bush els on May 1, 1917, (not includ ing flour stocks). Think of it. Under ordinary conditions that would spell panic, with the con sumer paying $25, $35 perhaps $50 per barrel for flour. But what happened? Except that we had to eat some bread that didn't look natural, and eat more spuds and 'garden sass' nothing serious develoDed so far as we can see.
