The campaign for the sale Of the
second issue Of Liberty Loan bonds
was commenced on October 9th. The
country is we'll organized to take
care Of the sale of the bonds and A.
M. Anderson has been appointed
county chairman for this county and
will devote much time in soliciting

entire county, before the campaign

subscribe for Liberty Bond to such
amount as they can afford. A. plan
has been perfected whereby evfry
person in the country will receive q
card which must be returned to the
Federal Reserve Bank, stating a.

son why a subscription has not been
made. These cards will be kept on

We copy the following explanation
from the government bulletin:
The second issue of Liberty Loan
Bonds will be of two kinds, register
ed and coupon. y .@~.
The registered bonds will be reg
istered at the Treasury in the names
of their owners and will be of the
denominations of $50, $1o0, $500, ST..
900, $4,000 $4,000, and 100000
Check for the interest on these
bonds will be mailed from the Treas.
ury to the owners each semiannua]
interest date. -
The coupon bonds will be payable
to the bearer and will have coupons
attached for the interest. They will
be in denominations of $50, $1O0
$500, $1,000, $4,000, and $4,000. The
coupons can be cashed like govern.
ment check at any bank.
The coupon bonds of this loan will
have only four coupons attached, rep.
resenting the semiannual interest fo1
two years. Between November IS
1919, and May Is, 1920, the holders
Of coupon bonds must exchange then
bonds for new bonds having full sets
Of coupons. These temporary bonds
are issued because the work of en-.
craving so many bonds with so large
number of coupons attached car
not be completed within a reasonable
time for delivery.
Bonds of the Second Liberty Loan
can be purchased by filling out an
application blank made on the form
prescribed by the Secretary of the
Treasury, which can be obtained from
any bank or Liberty Loan Committee,
and sending it in or having it sent
to the Treasury of the United States
or any Federal Reserve Bank or
branch accompanied by the payment
of 2 per cent of the amount of
bonds applied for.
These applications must reach the
Treasury Department, a Federal Re
serve Bank or branth thereof, or
some incorporated or trust. company
in the United States on or before
the close Of business October 81,

United States will willingly receive
these applications and handle the
whole transaction of the purchase OF
bonds for any subscriber -.

SO scare, l thought / would ask space
in your paper to let the people back
home know just what we are doing
here and how Uncle Sam uses his
boys. To begin with we are drilling
every day as hard as a bunch Of
rockies can stand it. The. camp is
fast taking on a military appearance.
Most Of the other company's have
their clothes now, we were given our
first clothes last night, one hat, one
pair of shoes with hob nails. four
suits of underwear, one pair of
gloves, four pair of socks, overcoat
and heavy shirt, we will get our
pants and coat sometime soon may
be- We get nearly enough to eat
the rest we buy at the canteen... We
are. the only ones in camp without
some gift from the Red Cross. The
boys here are getting packages from
hackers every day, ours will come
some time and they will be good
when they come. We met an Old
lady and her son today on the mair
street. She stopped US and asked US
if we would like some apples, she
had three bushel basket in the cal
and believe me we certainly had al
the apples we could eat for once, She
reminds me of my mother and I be-
lieve l love her nearly as much. She
is the first women that has spoke tt
us or given us anything since VIZ
come here.
Now for little of camp life. W.
are called at five thirty in the morn
ting, answer revellee at six, breakfast
| at |six fifteen, drill at seven thirty
until eleven thirty, then dinner, anc
drill at one thirty until five thirty
supper and a shower bath, a game
of pool or two and then to bed. That
is the way the day goes here. r.
The camp is nearly seven miles
long and half a mile wide, laid out il
blocks with streets running every
where. There is about seven mile.
of paved streets here. Each barracl
holds two hundred and fifty men, :
whole company. Mrs. Olsen was right
when she said, keep clean," one cul
tivates the habit here quick, ever,
place you look you see signs "KeeE
Clean" and they make you live ur
to it too. We all had a. shot in the
arm and will get two more in ter
days. 1t is to prevent fever and
other sickness. 1t costs the govern:
ment about fifteen dollars a shot, sc
you see it takes some money to &c
around the bunch. We paraded fol
muster this morning and signed the
payroll this afternoon, but we don't
know when we get our pay, we only
get five days. pay on account of SC
many men coming in lately. We are
only seven miles from Des Moines
and can get a pass any time to go in
AS soon as we get the balance of oul
