ladies have taken up knitting, namely !:
Mrs. l. M. Myrbo, Mrs. H. g. Hanson,
Mrs. VanPelt, ST., and Misses Mildred
Wood, Helen Larson, Allie Nelson,
! Anna Shaw and Mable Rays. We now
have sixty-seven knitters AS I said
last week, there is an urgent call from
head quarters for knit goods. II all
who are knitting would phone and tell
me just how much work they think
| they will be able to finish in the next
thirty days, should be very grateful,
as that is the only way for me to know
just how to answer the call from head
quarters. Please do this for me.
Following is list OF garments fin
ished and names Of those who handed
them in. So far Mrs. Lamberson is in
the lead for doing knitting. She also
sent in the first pair Of socks.
| Knitted garments handed in: Mrs Z.

lsO {oE I
That's What Averages
Show Soldiers Chance
to BE.

Roger Babson, the eminent sta
tistician OF Wellesley, has gathered
the following figures from q close
study of war casualties:
Fourteen men cut or every Is SO
far have been safe.
Under present conditions, where
man power is being saved, no
more than one in 30 Is killed.
Only one In 500 loses a limb--a
chance no greater than in hazard.
GUS conditions at home.
Mr.. Babson's conclusions are
based on the mortality figures OF
the French army for the full three
years of war. Attention IL called
to the fact that present fighting il
not claiming anywhere near the
number OF dead recorded for the
first two years.
He says Most OF the wounds
sustained in the trenches are clean
cut and OF a nature that a few
weeks in the hospital makes the
subject as fit as ever. But 800, 900
French soldiers have been dis
charged on account Of wounds
during the three years of the war.
Most Of the wounds received in
the trenches are on top of the
head simply scalp wounds. Prac-
tically speaking, a wound is either
fata, or slight. with but few in
between these two extremes"

will be shipped in from other points as
the Montana crop will not be threshed
for two to six weeks.

used for the purchase of seed grain to
needy farmers upon the terms that
one-fif of the crop be turned over
