PRICES FIXED FOR GRINDING WHEAT

August 23, 1918. Indiana State Council of Defense Publicity. Food Administration. Wheat millers who receive wheat from farmers’ wagons and grind such wheat on a toll basis, or exchange wheat for flour and feed, may charge not to exceed 35c per bushel for each 60 pounds of clean wheat so received. This toll is collectable on a money basis only. It is not permissible for mills to accept wheat, as toll in lieu of cash. The above regulation was received today from the grain corporation of the United States food administration, by Dr. Harry E. Barnard, federal food administrator for Indiana. All grain zone agents have been notified that failure to conform with these regulations imperils the license of the miller.
