A CHICKEN BONE TO PICK WITH
OUR STATE LEGISLATORS.

A law to encourage the growth of
the poultry industry should be enacted
and poultry stealing could easily be
made very unsafe business. Require
all dealers and common carriers to
make record Of the kind and guam
tity of all poultry offered for sale or
shipment to be signed by the party
selling or shipping, the record kept
open for public inspection and heavy
penalties provided for noncompliance.
This would make it easy to get some
trace of poultry disposed of by
thieves. County and state assocla-
tions should be organized to receive
complaints, offer rewards and prose-
cute. A few convictions would make
the business unpopular and save to
the women and children of Iowa hun
dreds of thousands of dollars, for Of
ten the proceeds of the poultry is
the only money that the farmers
wives and children have for their
own, and this lowest Of all the
thieves in Christendom comes like
skunk in the night to rob them of
their hard earned part. Shame and
more shame to our Legislators that
they have devised no more means to
stop these outrages and the sneaks
still walk the earth VI free and un-
punished. Sd. -,-' s. - ~..yrs-

of the other countries engaged in the
war will feel the pangs of hunger. In

most is food or money to- buy food
and clothing. There is no necessity
for America to send nurses and doc.

home on was a ship chartered to
transport a load OF red cross nurses
and doctors. France first refused
the aid offered, then England and
finally after much delay they we're al
lowed to land in Germany The war
ring countries are wellasupplied with
nurses and doctors but many o. the
poor lack food and clothing. OF
nurses they have many more appllca-

in that capacity. '2F.-'''} ~
Father .Sassen saw some OF the VIC
tins of atrocities which were prac-

conflict. He brought home some of

a ship from Rotterdam, Holland,
which experienced a thrilling
passage through the Month

these waters. At one time the vessel
and cruisers engaged in patrolllng
these waters. AT one time his. boat
was signaled by a torpedo boat to
stop and the captain was told that
there was an anchored contact mine
not over fifty feet Immediately in
front OF, his boat. For similar rea--
sons / the ships course was any

North sea and those on board breath

CAPT. J. F. MERRY URGED FOR

Captain J. F. Merry Of this city is
being presented by W. A. Morse
post as a candidate for the office of

letter is being sent by the local
post to the different posts throughout
the state urging the membership OF
the Grand Army of the Republic of

him to the highest office in the gift
of the Grand Army. Captain Merry
has labored INCREASINGLY for the in

will present as its candidate :. for
the high office Of Department Com
mander, Past Post Commander, Cap
tain J. F. Merry, who needs no intro
duction to the comrades of Iowa. His
wide acquaintance throughout the
state, his personal efforts in securing
for the historic city of Vicksburg
what is recognized as the greatest
commemorative Military park in the
world, and his eminent fitness for the
position will, we feel assured, appeal
to the Grand Army men Of the state:
''The members Of WA. Morse post
have long desired to present Comrade
Merry as candidate, for this high
position, but until lately he has not
been so situated that he could give
the necessary time to it. !:
1T is not the desire Of the post
to enter into a strenuous campaign
for the position, as that would be dis
tasteful to Comrade Merry and not
in harmony with later custom, but
from his wide and favorable acquain-
tance throughout the department
they feel warranted in asking the
unanimous support Of the next De-
partment Encampment. W. A. Morse
Post No. 100, who has long known
and loved Comrade Merry, thus ap-
peals to their comrades.
This announcement was passed
unanimously at the last regular post
