HOME CANNING SUGAR CERTIFICATES TO BE CONTINUED Conger*am*n Bacharach Obtain* Mod. ification of Order recently Issued by U. 8. Food Administration.

Mr. Howard G. Taylor. Secretary of the New Jersey Stale Horticultural Society, recently brought to the attention of Congressman Bacharach an order from the C. S. Food Administration which discontinued the use of Home Canning (Surpr) Certificates or. or about October 20lh Mr Taylor called attention to th«fact that if such a ruling was enforced at that time. It would work a s- riouhardsbip upon tbe fruit growers of South Jersey who were Just now preparing to harvest their crop of late fruits. Not only would the grower ruffer. but it would also cause great inconvenience to the householder us Iiey would not be able to gel those flue canning fruits, and since cooked and preserved fruits ate more and more being used on the table of every class of people to fill out the war diets ■iggested by the Food Commission fot the conservation of food, the.-s would also be a very heavy icss of good, wholesome food product. Congressman Bacharach Immediate ly took tbe matter up with tbe U. S Food Administrator, and as a result of his efforts he has been informed by the Food Administration that a telegram haa been sent to all Federal Food Administrators, telling them to continue home canning certificate* as long as there were available fruits in their territory. Thlz Inforii.c'lcn will therefore' likewise be of much Interest to the fruitgrowers and tbe consuming public, who will now be able to procure large quantities of sugar for canning purposes. as long as there are fruits to b« canned. Anyone experiencing any difficulty in gitiing these certificates at their grocers' should take the matter up with the local food Inspector, who will no doubt be able to straighten out vny misunderstanding on the part of the grocer caused by the earlier order from the Food Administration.

More Interest is being generally displayed In the coming war work campaign. and in the present hair-trigger European aituaiion than In the oncoming General Election, although the latter is tbe most important business u hand just at this moment, for ev--ry loyal American. In New Jeraey i United Slates Senator Is to be elected. both lor ihe short and long terms, and In ihis congressional district a member of the House of Representatives is to be chosen. Cape May County will elect a Slate Senator. and an Assemblyman. Republicans are up in arms over the un-American and certainly un-Demo-cratic utterances of President Wilson during the past two weeks, when he publicly attacked the loyalty and Americanism of tbe Republicans in the House of Congress and the United Slates Senate, by urging that Demo- . be elected exclusively, on next Tuesday. Press and public everywhere. including some of the leading Democrats of the nation, are determined to repudiate the rur-llfce greed for power of the President, which was exhibited in his recent di-clar*lions, and determined to send to Washingmen who are capable, efllclenL loyal and honorable, regardless of party affiliations, rather than rubberstamp Democrats, such as the President desires. Senator David Baird, of Oroden. is tbe Republican nominee for the short Senatorial term, and will undoubtedly be elected over his Democratic opponent. Charles O'Connor Hennessey, who Is candidate for both the short term. Baird was appointed by Governor Edge to the Senate upon the death of Senator Hughes, and has demonstrated in the sl.o t time he s been in ibe Capital City, his unerring loyalty to the government In bis support of every win-the-war policy advocated since his incumbency. Tbe election of Governor Walter E. Edge for the full term is generally conceded, even among Democrats, as the election of Congressman Isaac IDcliarach. who ha* proven one of ibe It vest on-the-job and moat approachable representative from this district In Congress In many years. Former Sheriff William IL Bright. Republican. D opposed for Ihe State Senate from Cape May County, by William Porter. Democrat. If the county g-M>* normally Republican. Bright's election Is assured, the usual Republican majority being nearly a thousand votes This applies with qual force to Mark Ijtke. of Ocean I'lty, who seeks re-election to the House of Assembly. WENTZELL AND MASON CONTEST HOT. The conti-sl betwi-on Levi Wentsell nd Rolten Mason, for election to the Guard of Freeholders from Dennis Township Is possibly Ihe hottest local contest in tbe County. At the Prlmy election In September, both were mlnaG-d. one on the Republican ket end the other or. the Democratwitb only a few vote* difference, ore Primary election both have • n waxing active campaigns, and •-h I* sure of election, with the balre of favor on the WenUeT side.
