FARMERS MAY SELL
HOME-GROWN WHEAT

Columbia.--Farmers who have grown wheat may, under recently modified regulations of the Food Administration, sell wheat or flour to their neighbors under certain conditions.

Purchasers of wheat from farmers may have it ground on the same basis as the farmer who raised it, but in such cases they will be expected to use flour substitutes pound for pound with the flour. When farmers sell flour to individuals they must sell flour substitutes with it, or take miller's certificates from the purchaser, showing that flour substitutes have been ground to cover the amount of flour bought, pound for pound.
