The grocer will give you in exchange the corresponding number of individual cards . It will be necessary to show these cards to him every time you wish to draw a sugar ration for the person who has signed- whether yourself or some other member of the family .
This procedure must be followed whether or not there has been a removal from the family . The whole object of the new system is to

SHORTAGE OF BUTTER , TEA , AND

CAUSE OF BUTTER SHORTAGE . The main reason for the shortage of butter is the restriction of the supply from Denmark and Holland , from which in normal times the bulk of the imported supply comes .
