Seed Potatoes Are Scarce.

Mr.. and Mrs. M. B. McKillip
bve to Rawlins in their auto on
turday, returning home Mon
\. While at the county seat
/. McKillip attended a meeting
The County Council for National
of which he is a member,
] assisted with the thorough or
bization of that body. The
bnty has been divided into sew
y districts, with a local com.
Ptee in charge of the work in
|hdistrict, these various branches
liking under the direction of the
bnty organization, Mr.. McKil-
states that the County Council
/ extremely fortunate in procur-
the carload of seed potatoes

zone desiring seed from this
pment should get their orders
without delay, as a strenuous
brt is being made by Colorado
, 1917-05-17

handicapped by a lack of seeds,
and those having any surplus what
ever will assist in a good work if
they will place their surplus at
the disposal of the committee with
out delay. This is not asked as a
favor, but as the performance of a
patriotic duty.
Officials of the department of
agriculture have stated that unless
the greatest care is exercised and
every available seed made to yield
its full measure of food produc-
ton, the nation will be facing want
before the crop of 1918 is har-
vested. This prediction is based
upon present crop conditions in
the country and the available food
stocks carried over, and an accur-
ate knowledge of what the demand
is going to be. There is absolutely
nc chance for an over-production,
and it is up to citizen of every
community to assist each other in
this matter of self-preservation.
Mr.. Hays and his committee will
be glad to give every possible as
sis'ance 10 this work and every
body who eau is invited and urged
to cooperate,
