FOOD ADMINIS
IM IA NNOTES
MORE FLOUR FOR
HARVEST NEEDS
Flour purchases, by farmers has
been raised from six to twelve pounds
per capita per month during haying
and harvest. A. D. Wilson, federal
food administrator for Minnesota,
has - seat the following notice to Ed
gar E. Sharp, county food adminis
trator:
"In order to minimize the effort
that must be put upon the prepara
tion of .meals for men doing the
.heavy work of baying and harvest
upon the farms, the state food ad
ministrator believes that it is pro
per to raise the 6-pound per month
flour limit to farm workers during
this season.
"County food administrators are
therefore authorized to grant permis
sion to farmers employing extra Ia
" or and woiking long days, to per
cbase up to 12 pounds per. capita per
month of' wheat flour, provided they
purchase this on the 50-50 basis as
they have in .the past.
"~The juestion of labor is a very
serions one and in view of the crop
prospects it would appear to be juz
tiflable to relieve as much as posuiblty
the extra labor that is forced upon
thie housewife in the preparation of
foods that must be substituted for
wheat flour in satisfying the appe
tites of men and women .doing the
strenuous work of haying and har
vest."
FLOUR, $9.17 A BARREL;
FEEDS $22.07 PEE TON
A basic price of $9.77 per barrel
for flour and $22.07 per ton for
' mixed feed," is established for
Grand Forks, it was announced yes
terday by Federal Food Administra
tor Ladd upon receipt of a telegram
from Washington. This price is ni
car lots, F. O. B. mill, and any ne
cessary freights may be added to get
flour and feed to destination, even
though this may result in higher than
the price controlling the mills at such
points.
Area Affected Unknown
It is not yet certain whether this
is to be a basic price for the state,
with differentials to be figured out
by the federal food administrator, or

Front and 'swelling the $iome army
which we must rely on to act as our
second line of hospital defense. Up=
on the health of the American ped
ple will depend the spirit of th ir
fighting forces.
AGE.-The call is for women be
tween the ages of nineteen and thir
ty-five.
Q UALIFICATIONS. - Intelligent,
responsible women of good education
and sound health are wanted-the
pick of ie country. A co ioge eonda
tion is a valuable asset, and many
hospitals will give cre# t for it. Cred
it will also be given for a special set
en' uti equip sent or for prelimifary
training in nursing, such as that giv
en in special courses now, being coti
ducted by various colleges and
schools. Some schools, on the other
hand, do not even require a full high
school education.
1 NRiOLLMENT-Women will be
given an opportunity to enroll in the
United States Students Nurse Re
serve in, any one of three ways:
(1) As engaging to hold them
selves in readiness until April 1,
1919, to accept assignments to
nurses' training schools. These wom
en will be sent to the schools as fasd
as vacancies occur. Those of superi
or qualifications will be given prefer
ence, and it is, of course, possible
that not everyone who enrolls will
be accepted.
(2) As desiring to become candi
dates for the Army Nursing School
recently established by authority of
the War Department, with branch
schools in selecte4 military hospitals.
(3) As engaging to .hold them
selves in readiness until April .1,
1919, to accept. assignments to eith
er a civilian training schooj or thce
Army Nursing School. Those who so
enroll will be. called where the first
need arises... The (Governmeait hopes
tata majority of tho~se who enroll
Wfithup put down their names for
both.
NURSES' TRAINING SCHOOLS
There are 1,579 nurses' training
schools in this country. Their need
is as great and imperative as that of
the Army School of Nursing. Those
who enroll for these schools will be
assigned as vacancies occur.
The enrollment card will indicate
two class of registrants-preferred
and Deferred. The Preferred class
will be those who are ready to accept
assignment to whatever hospital the
Government directs them, although
they may state what training school
they prefer to be sent to. Those who
regfsteA &4 zap.Prdeterdd 4lisk 'till be
asi d. rat, a possible consid
'ertno l1 be given to 'their prefer
ence as stated. The Deferred class is
composed of those who limit th :
pledge of service--that is, who Vill
not engage to'`o except to certain
hospitals.` This class is ittended
largely for those who, for family
reasons, 'caln not accept training at a
distance from their -,homes. Those
who Tegister in the Deferred class
will be assigned only after the Pie
ferred class is exhausted.
The (Government relies on the pa
triotiemn of those who enroll to fill out
Prefered cards if they possibly can,
thus volkmteering to go where they
are- most needed.
Nobody will be assigned to any
schools whose conditions of trainitg
are not approved by the State Board
of Nurse Examiners.
TERMS- OF: TRAINING.-The
term of training iarles from two to
three years, aeedrding to the te4quite
ments of 'the particular school "t"
which the studet nurse ma be set
No course*f tes less than two yea1
nor more than three.

er since the days of Florence Night
ingale, the nursing profession has
been one of especial honor. It was
never go honorable as it is today.
The Army needs every nurse- it can
get to ''ee i up with the draft." The
United States- Student Nurse Re
serve is the equivalent for women of
the great National Army training
cathps for soldiers. The Government
will rely upon the student nurses to'
fight disease at home, to care for
those injured and disabled in our
hazardous war. industries, and make
themselves ready to serve when the
tilte comes as fully trained nurses,
either -abrbad or at -home. Let us
show that we know how to answer
