Raleigh, April 15 The far-famed "hen and pullet" order of the Food Administration which becomes effec tive February 1st and' which was de cut off from any further supplies of sugar or flour unless their operations are approved by the Food Administra tion at Washington. The restriction on sugar allowing confectioners 80 per cent and the re striction on flour allotted to bakers at 70 per cent of their normal con sumption has resulted in a shortage of candies, confections, pastries" and other products of sugar and flour on the market throughout the country. This shortage has resulted in the starting up of numerous candy and pastry making establishments, this de velopment not only threatening to nullify the effects of the restrictions fcut imposing upon the old establish ments a marked injustice. It is this situation that brought about the new order of the Food Administration.
