the week food expenses that le token

In the broadest under..tending of
"food control", therefore, the regula-
tion of the package cereals trade is
obviously important. It was also one
of the most readily reaclud of our
Canadian food supplies, because
centred in comparatively few firma
and makers. Nothing was dune with-
out due regard to the le(it!maie re-
quirements of a trade t1' hick has,
through extensive told sustained ad-
vertising, be2ame well known to the
public. In fact, the investigation was
undertaken by men who command the
respect of the manufacture ., the
wholesalers, the retailers and ,h2 gen-
eral public. The Chairman 2022 I'ruf.

Ottawa; Mr. P. B. Tuetin, Chief oi' the
Food and Dairy Division, Health De-
partment, Winnipeg; and Mr. \s. S.
Locky, of the War Purchasing Com-
mission, Ottawa.
What, it, will be asked, was the ob-
ject of regulating the sale of package
foods under 20 pounds in weight?
Primarily, to keep down excessive pro-
fits on Stich paelteges, which naturally
are bought in the smallest .sizes by
the poorer classes. There was also
the desire to prove how great a saving
in cost could be made by the purchase
of cereals in bulk. The difference in
the last named case was such as the
average housewife could not be ex-
pected to find for herself. Rolled
oats were found to be selling in pack-
ages weight a little over three pounds
at the rate of 8,78 cents a pound.
Bought in ten -pound bulk lots the
same oats could be obtained for 0.50
cents a pound, and in 90 -pound lots at
(1.26 cents a pound.
Measured by the diffei`enre in
energy -giving units the variation in
brands was found to be as striking.
For instance, a pertain fairly well ad-
vertised mark of oats giving 1,000
"calories" or energy units, cost only
4.41 cents, while another breakfast
food giving the same calories cost
21.98 cents.
With the licensing of the manu-
facture of these cereals a set of re-
gulations has been drawn up which
will enable the e.ots\imer to know
precisely what quantity of food he or
she is buying in the small package.
Licenses will protect the public in
what they buy through the operation
of regulations, and which have to be
competed with before a license can
issue, that there must be printed on
the package in easily read form: 1, the
name of the article; 2, name and ad-
dress of the mailul'auturer; 3, license
lumber; and 4, net weight of con-
tents in potunis and ounces, The
committee insisted also that the cost
of containers, empty cartons and bags
must be only a small proportion of the
total cost, so that the consumer may
not be paying for the package at
food rates. Still more important, the
regulations contain the stipulntiou:
"The price at which the goods aro sold
to the public must not exceed an
amount allowing a reasonable profit,
To assure the carrying out of these
regulations the manufacturer's books
must be open to inspection, subject to
t the cancellation, at a month's notice,
of his license. A fee front $10 to
$60 and even upwards based on year-
ly turnover will be charged for.

"Hundreds of
Dollars In ActualProfit"
More than one farmer has told us --since he has got a copy of " What the
Farmer Can Do With Concrete," that the advice it gave him netted him
hundreds of dollars in actual profit.
Get the book—it's free—and by reading it you will see the profit there is in
building improvements of CONCRETE according to its plain, simple directions. For
instance, there's a page devoted to Watering Troughs --showing how to build the
sanitary kind that will not rot, rust or leak. Several pages devoted to Concrete Silos.
Others telling how to build concrete foundations for barns. All these are improvements a
farm needs—its value will go up considerably if you use concrete in the building of them.
AndY ou'll he able to " work" your farts with less effort and on a more profitable basis

directions you'll need.
