The point value of farm butter has
been decreased to eight points, processed butter to four points, and margarine to two points. Lard, shortening and salad and cooking oils will be
point free during May.
Point values of choice cuts of beef
will be slightly increased for May, but
lamb and mutton will be reduced fifty
per cent. Veal will remain the same
and pork about the same.
The lowering of the butter point value is pdsstble because of seasonal production increase, which is at the highest, level since September. Most steak
goes up a point because of demand.
Director Lee Marshall, of the War
Food Administration office in Washington, announced Wednesday that
civilians will get more and better ice
cream during May and June.
Manufacturers' quotas for ice cream
and other frozen dairy products will
be increased from sixty-five to seventy-five per cent and changes have heeri
made to permit a richer ice cream
mix.

blindness, stepped off the edge of the
mow and fell to the floor below.
He was rushed in the Doherty ambulance to the Clare Hospital, -where
preliminary examination disclosed that
he was suffering a fractured right
wrist, and although it was thought at
first that he might have suffered a
stroke, X-ray examination indicated
that his condition was caused by a
concussion of the brain, suffered in
the fall.
He recovered consciousness after
twenty-four hours and his condition is
improving.

Establishment of a central truck j
tire inspection station for Clare county for the purpose of insuring fullest
possible mileage to tires on essential
commercial transportation before replacement by new treads was announced today.
The program is being established
under joint sponsorship of the tire
dealers and inspectors of Clare county
through their Central Truck Tire Inspection Dealer Committee, and of
the rationing division of the Saginaw
district Office of Price Administration.
The dealer committee includes leading representatives of the tire industry in Clare county, listing on its roster H. L. Fleming, chairman, Clare;
Cecil Davison, Farwell; Charles Snell,
Harrison; Mortimer Balcom, Temple;
H. A. Jones, Clare; and J. B. Gilman,
Lake.
The new central truck tire inspection station, selected by the committee, is located at the Clare County
Road Commission, West US-10, Clare,
Michigan. Its purpose is the reinspection of trftck or commercial vehicle
tires which have heen recommended
to be replaced by any official tire inspection station. The "commercial vehicles" category includes panel trucks
and passenger automobiles bearing
commercial license plates and used
in business as well as the heavier
equipment.
Owners and operators of trucks and
other commercial vehicles are still
required to drive their equipment to
official OPA tire inspection stations
for examination of the tires. However,
when the inspector on duty there decides that the tires should be condemned and replaced by new casings,
he will take the demounted tire to
the new Central truck tire inspection
station, along with the application for
a new tire.
There, a double check will be
made to determine whether the tire is
still serviceable' and whether it could
continue in use for more miles before
replacement. Tubes to be replaced,
however, need not be inspected by the
central station.
A nominal inspection fee must accompany the 'tire at the time of inspection at the central station. The
central truck tire inspection station
is allowed a fee of 25 cents for sizes
up to 7.50 x 20 and 50 cents for sizes
above 7.50 x 20.

One hundred filled overseas kit bags

AVork on the hospital supplies be completed as soon as possible, that work
may be resumed on kit bags.
It is fully realized that the women

who possibly can will report at the
Clare city hall each Thursday afternoon, between 1:00 and 5:00 o'clock
to work during the sewing sessions
or to take work home with them. Let's
get this work done while its completion is urgent and before hot V/eather
