i Nebiaska' allotment of sugar for
the month of August is 4,153,000
pounds, one-fhird less than theamount
wc received in July. This cut of one
, thiid means tl at Nebraska consumers
! must reduce their consumption one-
third if everybody is to have sugar
throughout the month, The new reg
ulations are:
Householders may buy two pounds
this month for .each person in their
house hold. In cities and towns they
can buy only two pounds at a time,
no matter how largo tho family. Cus
tomers living on farms may buy five
pounds at ono time.
Public eating places may buy 2
pounds for each ninety mals served.
Ler.s essential manufacturers may
have one-half tho amount they used
in tho corresponding period last year.
For canning and preserving pur
poses housewives may have what they ,
actually need. To get this sugar for
canning they must secure a certificate
from tho county food administrator or
his representative aftoi complying
with tho requirements of tho admin
istiator. "Thcio are no exceptions to these
rules," says A. C. I.au, deputy fedtl
administrator, "and any tepoit to tho
contrauy must be given no considcia-tion."
