RECENT RAINFALL

Rainfall in Ordway SO far in Au-
gust has amounted to 0.91 inch, yes
terday's local shower amounting to
0.39 inch.
The rains have all been of local
nature and in some places as north
west of Ordway and in the Sugar City
district the rainfall has amounted to
great deal more. The rain last
Saturday was heavy to the north
west Of Ordway and came down in
such force as to break the banks Of
the main irrigation canal. This caus-
ed the overflow to sweep over a con-
siderable strip thru the Numa dis
trict. In the vicinity of Sugar City
the rain was not only heavy but con-
siderable hail fell Damaging crops in
some local sections.

Edwin Mashburn, formerly known
as sport" and the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. w. Mashburn, arrived home
Tuesday evening for a two weeks
visit with home folks. He has a gov
ernment position at Washington, D.

friends here as sport" Mashburn
and some might not recognize the
name Edwin.
Mashburn said that not long ago
people were very much heightened
because OF the belief that there was
a German submarine in Chesapeake

investigation made whereupon the
body Of a mammoth elephant was
found floating around in the water.

SAVE GASOLINE

JOY rides In automobiles or any
other vehicle which uses gasoline Will
probably be very materially reduced
thru pressure to BIO brOt to bear by
the federal government. What the
government wants is u saving In gaso-
line that the supply may not be cut
to a point where 1t VIII interfere with
war operations.
The following suggestions have
been sent out by federal agents, thru
the state war council:
DIDO not allow your gasoline en-
gine to run idle.
(2)-Use kerosene, not gasoline, for
cleaning purposes in the garage.
-(3)-Sce TO 1t that the carburetor
does not leak. Form the habit
OF shutting off the gasoline at
the tank.
W-By Judicious regulation OF the
mixture of gasoline and air in
the motor, both greater power
and economy Of fuel may be OBJ
tanned.
Automobile owners need not lay
up cars, but should use them either
for trade or pleasure purposes thot-
fully and judiciously. II this advice
is followed there will be no undue
scarcity, for the United States pos
sesscs an abundant supply for ordin-
AIRY purposes.
