Wheat conservation rules eased with substitutes rules change
The Food Administration announced changes to wheat conservation as a large crop looms. The fifty fifty rule is rescinded, allowing one pound of substitutes per four pounds of flour or Victory Mixed Flours with 20 percent substitutes. Mixed flours include combinations of wheat with barley, corn, and rye in specified proportions. Retailers must stock substitute flours and sell them in proper ratios, while no dealer can force substitutes on customers. Missouri is praised for gallantry at Belleau Wood and Bouresches, with many Missourians cited for the Distinguished Service Cross and more names expected as the war continues.
