Minnesota Flour Substitute Sale Policy Quoted
Mr. Wilson cites a Minnesota rule requiring retailers to pair each pound of wheat flour sold with an equal pound of substitutes. Substitutes include corn meal edible cornstarch potato flour oatmeal corn grits barley flour corn flour rice flour sweet potato flour rolled oats buckwheat flour rice hominy soy bean flour and feterita meals. For whole wheat or graham flour at least 95 percent of the wheat sold, six tenths of a pound of substitute must be sold per pound.

North German Park pump-house plans approved amid munitions delay
At a special City Council meeting architect Carl A. Heers presented plans for a new pump-house in North German Park. Bids vary by brick, cement blocks, or stucco for a 20 by 30 foot building with a 36 foot cupola. The delivery of the pump from a St Paul firm is delayed by munitions contracts. The council discussed deepening water mains on North State Street and related streets due to freezing, blamed prior engineers for current conditions, and referred Front Street grading and boulevarding to the street committee for property-owner support and possible Board of Public Works action this year.
