SHIPPED CARLOAD OF RAGS.
Manhattan Junk Dealer Sends Big
Consignment to Jobber

Manhattan, Kan, March 11-One
hundred and forty sacks CT rags, col
lected by a Manhattan junk dealer,
have been shipped to q junk company
in Beatrice, Neb., over the Rock Is
land. The rags occupied an entire car
to themselves. They were contained
in ordinary gunny sacks, and were of
all sorts, colors, and conditions OF
decrepitude ~
Because of the European war, the
price of rags in the United States has
nearly doubled what it was three
months ago. Much old clothing has
been given to the war sufferers, and
much linen has been used for band
ages, in addition to the increased call
for cloth for uniforms for the Euro
pean armies
