STRICT REGULATIONS
ON USE OF SUGAR
(Continued from page one)
allowed to hotels, restaurants
• and all other pubilc easing
places:
“The three pounds per nine
ty meals served means that the
! amount of sugar secured under
| that ruling from Washington
! represents the allotments for
all purposes, it includes the
supply for cooking and for
whatever purpose sugar is
used, in pies, pastry, or des
serts, as well as for individual
service to guests.”
SUGAR FOR BAKERS
All sugar allotments for ba
kers will be based upon a
three months period, compris
ing July, August and Septem
ber. It must be understood,
however, the food administra
tion declares, that only one
third of that supply may be
drawn in July. Bakers, in
computing the amount of su
gar they are entitled to, mu
do one of two things.
First, They may take 70 per
cent of the amount of sugar
they used in July, August and
September, 1917, as their al
lotment for the same corres
ponding months this year.
Second They may take 70
per cent of the amount of su
gar they used in June, 1918,
multiply that by three, for their
allotment during July. August
and September.
Retailers in purchasing su
gar must take into careful con
sideration the amount of sugar
they would sell under three
pounds per person per month
during July, August and Sept
ember, and they must use as a
ibasis the amount they bought
from jobbers and wholesalers
during April, May and June,
this year. Under no consider
ation must they sell sugar in
violation of the three pounds
per capita rule.
In the event that it is abso
lutely necessary in order to
keep one’s place of business
running, the state food admin
istrator will issue certificates to
those entitled to the same be
fore July 1, for the July allot
ment, but only for -5 per cent
of the amount such establish- .
ment may require next month.
