When a Barton citizen comes to the front, telling his friends and neigh bors of his experience, you can rely on his sincerity. The statements of people residing in far away places do not command your confidence. Home endorsement is the kind that backs Doan's Kidney Pills. Such testimony is convincing. Investigation proves it true. Below is a statement of a Barton resident. No stronger proof of merit can be had. C. F. Cutler, farmer, Park, St., says: "I suffered from lumbago and with rheumatic pains in my shoul ders. This bothered me a lot and made me miserable. I heard of Doan's Kidney Pills and decided to use them and I went to the E. W. Barron Co. and bought some. They relieved me and I know Doan's Kidney Pills are a good, reliable kidney medicine."

FURTHER CUT IN THE USE OF SUO State Food Administrator Bro Promulgates New Regulations for Vermont CANNING SUPPLY IS NON-EXISTA Housewives May Can Without However Restrictions Direct flection of War Developments. SAMSONVILLE MILL BURNED Nelson & Hall Co., Lose Large Ve neer Plant at Samsonville. Work of rebuilding the veneer mills owned by Nelson & Hall Co., destroy ed by fire at Samsonville, near Enos burg, the afternoon of July 27 which did an estimated damage of between $100,000 and $200,000, is rapidly pro gressing. A large force of men are engaged in moving the debris prepar atory to rebuilding. Owing to the number of men employed in this work very few men will be out of work pending the completion of the new plant which it is understood will be on a larger scale than before. The property was owned by the Nelson & Hall Co., of Montgomery, and was the largest and most com pletely equipped plant engaged ex clusively in the manufacture of ve ner furnishings in Vermont if not in New England. The fire originated it is believed in the boiler room and despite the fact that fire extinguishers and chemicals were distributed at intervals through out the building, owing to the ex treme heat and dryness of the waste veneer that served as fuel for the large engine, the fire gained headway in an incredibly short space of time. The whole plant burned to the ground in less than two hours. Nearly all the employes were away as on Saturday afternoon the mill does not operate. Had it not been for this fact the large mill might have been saved as the wind which was blowing at the outset blew the flames away from the building. At one time the two streets eastward from the mill were threatened with destruction. Four dwelling houses were burned, three of which belonged to the company and one was owned by Hall & Son.

FOLEY KIDNEY PILLS fOR BACKACtfE KIDNEYS AND BLADDER Train Hits Auto, Two Dead. Peter Gochie, Mrs. Gochie and son, Carroll, of Sheffield and Mr. and Mrs. Percy Brown of Northfield Falls, and William Douglass, all relatives, were automobiling on July 29th, when the car was struck by a Central Ver mont train at a West Berlin crossing, killing Mr. Gochie and Mr. Brown and seriously injuring the others. The party were going to Northfield Falls from Sheffield, where Mr. and Mrs. Brown and their nephew had been visiting the Gochie family. They were within a few miles of their home when overtaken by death. Mr. Brown was driving the car. The approach to the crossing near the Riverton or West Berlin station is blind, and apparently Mr. Brown did not see the train approaching until he was almost upon the crossing. It was to late to stop the car, but he endeav ored to turn the vehicle to run in the direction with the train, as was shown by the marks of the automobile's wheels. The intervening space was too short, however, and the train struck the machine a smashing blow and carried it about 75 feet before it was hurled aside. Both the men were thrown onto the pilot of the en gine and there they lay when the train was stopped, they having been carried over one bridge. --Tri- .'-i Tr- -r ai flSli'Z. JJrJ.',-A--lCa. T5 Monipelier, July 21, Because or the seriousness of the sugar situa tion which has developed as the re sult of submarine activities and the German occupation of the greater part of the beet sugar fields in France, the food administration has been forced to put into effect new restrictions on the consumption of this commodity. State Food Administrator Brooks said today that it was with keen regret that the new regulations had been is sued, but inasmuch as they arise di rectly from war conditions and are absolutely necessary as a military safeguard to the armies in the field and the civilian populations support ing the armies, he felt confident that the people of the state would accept them patriotically and observe them as being one of their personal contri butions to victory. Most important among th-e new regulations are: no further special sales of sugar for canning purposes are permitted; dealers must limit sales so that net i-ore than two pounds a month per individual will be purchased; public eating houses must not consume more than two pounds for each 90 meal3 served; there must be no unrationed service of su gar in public eating houses and the ban against the sugar bowl on the table is pronounced. Mr. Brooks has promulgated the following order regulating and restricting the distri bution of sugar; "WHEREAS it is tho first duty of a belligerent nation to provide its ar mies and navies with an abundance of good and nourishing food, and, "WHEREAS, it has been declared necessary by the United States Food Administration at Washington in or der to supply the armies and navies now fighting against German despot ism such good and nourishing food, that the consumption of sugar in America be limited, for the time be ing, to two rounds per person, per month, and, "WHEREAS this food so needed by our brave fighting men may be sup plied in abundance by a little sacri fice on the part of the people at home and, "WHEREAS all patriotic Vermon ter3 grasp an opportunity for service in this great war as a privilege and not as a burden and it is only the slacker and unpatriotic person who must be goaded into the performance of a high duty, and to the end that Vermont may be in harmony with all regulations and suggestions of the United States Food Administration at Washington It Is hereby ORDERED "1. That no retail dealer in sugar shall sell more than two pounds of sugar at any one time to a person liv ing in a villaee or city, or more than five pounds of sugar at any one time to a person living In the country, and such Fales must be further limited so that tne people supplied may not have for consumption more than two pounds per per.on per month. "2. No further special sales for canning purposes are permitted. Fruits must be preserved without su gar or the sugar thereof saved from the two pound per month apportion ment. "3. Retailers shall for each sale of sugar make a record in duplicate of the date and amount of the purchase and the name and address of the pur aser; one copy of such record shall be kept on file by the retailer and one copy delivered to the local food administrator within one week after the sale, provided however that this section shall not apply to localities operating under a ard system. "4. Public eating places, boarding bouses, clubs and dining-cars shall limit the consumption of sugar to not over two pounds of sugar to ninety meals served, and shall not permit unrationed sugar to be on tables or counters where fcod Is served, in bowls or otherwise." So far as limiting the use of sugar to two pounds a month per individual is concerned, Mr. Brooks feels that this entails no real hardship on the public, for this is an amount that is ample to meet all physical necessi ties, although it may constitute an in convenience for Americans have been tremendous consumers of sugar. There is nothing, however, in this limitation which threatens the health of an individual. "In canning fruit without sugar, can the product the day it is picked. Cull, stem, seed and clean fruit by plac ing in strainer and pouring cold wa ter over cans until full. Use a table spoon, wooden ladle, or table knif. for packing purposes. Pour boiling hot water over the product in the hot jar. Place rubbers and caps in position, not tight... If using tin cans, seal completely. Place In the steriliz er, vat, or canner, and sterilize for length of time : 'en below prcord'ns to the particular type of outfit u?ed: Hot Tmtpr bath, homemade or com mercial 30 minutes Water ser.l, 214 degrees 20 minutes 5 pounds steam pressure 12 minutes 10 pounds steam pressure 10 minutes "After sterilizing remove the filled containers. Seal jars; invert to cool and test the joints. Wrap in paper to prevent bleaching and store in a dry cool place If tin cans are used it will be found advantageous to plunge them into cold water immediately af ter sterilization to cool them quick ly." Within a few days the department of public education of the food ad ministration will offer to the newspa pers of the state for publication full and explicit directions for canning: without the use of sugar CALEDONIA COUNTY. Raymond Campbell, of Lyndonville, son of former btate Senator Camp bell, who is at home on furlough, was on the ill-fated San Diego, sunk off Fire Island by a submarine, and had a narrow escape. Within five min utes after being struck the ship turn ed turtle and sank. When the ship was struck, the boys sang, "Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here." There was no chance for them to use the wireless and so they fired about 30 shots from three-inch and six-inch guns and attracted the attention of three colliers who took the men off the rafts.
