An Old Mans Stomach.

AS we grow older and less active
less and less food is requird to meet
the demands of our bodies. II too
much is habitually taken, the stomach
will rebel. When man reaches the
advanced age of So or 80, you will
find that he is light eater. Be az
careful as you will, however, you will
occasionally eat more than you
should and will feel the need of Cham

and enables il to perform its func-
lions naturally. They also cause a

COMMERCIAL CLUBS

bers of the Commercial club, and
having them present at all regular
meetings of the club. However, this
did not appear to meet with popular
favor, the majority believing that the
women would not, for the most part,
be interested in the discussion of bus
mess and civic problems that would
be dealt with.
And number Of other matters of
more or less Importance.
Cashier Foster of the Bank of
Southern Utah was introduced as the
next speaker and gave additional in
formation in relation to the project
of Mr.. Andrews and associates of Cal
ifornia, in regard to the dverting of
water from Duck Lake into the Cedar
Valley. Mr.. Foster presented some
recent correspondence with Mr.. An
drus, which tended to show that the
Californians were very much in ear
nest in the matter and were prepared
to make the investment, if assured of
the sale of the water at a price of
$50 per acre foot when it had been
delivered to the farmers.
The matter was discussed to some
little extent, and resolution was pre-
scented and passed to the effect that
the Commercial club gave the matter
its encouragement and support to the
extent of assisting to get contracts
signed up for the purchase of the wat
err, provided that the contracts were
drawn in such way as to guarantee
the permanency of the water supply
so purchased, on such terms of pay
ment as should meet the convenience
of the farmers and at the same time
allow for the proving of the perma-
nency of the water.
There was an informal discussion
of other matters introduced by Pres.
Macfarlane in his opening remarks,
including the construction of the coal
tram, and a committee composed of
w. H. Leigh, Arch. Swapp and C. s.
Wilkinson was appointed to investi-
gate the present status of this pro-
ject and ascertain what can be done
to encourage it, and to report back to
the club at their next regular meeting
on December /.
The luncheon and the entire meet
ing was regarded as one of the most
successful and encouraging evidences
of the life of the club yet held.
The following members were pres
ent:

RED CROSS CAMPAIGN
STARTS NEXT WEEK
President Appeals to All Ameri-

Ten Million Wanted.

President Wilson has issued a pro-
clamation in which he urges every one
not already a member to join the Red
Cross during the membership cam
paign starting next Sunday and con-
tinuing until Christmas Eve.
With the slogan "make it Red
Cross Christmas" an effort will be
made to add ten million new members
to the five million now in the organi-
zation. Only one week has been al
lotted to the intensive drive, but it is
expected that this will be enough. This
is the first organized effort the Red
Cross has made to enroll new men,
bers since the war started.

Burial at Malta.

Henry McGregor, for many years a
resident of Hinsdale and Malta,
dropped dead in the postoffice at
Hinsdale Monday morning. Heart fail
ure is given as the cause of his sud-
den demise.
For the past few years Mr.. Nc
Gregor made Malta his home, although
still retaining his extensive stock
and ranching interests near Hinsdale.
1t was to look after the latter that
he went to Hinsdale. While in con-
versation with a friend in the post
office, he suddenly fell over and be-
fore medical assistance could be Sc
cured he had passed away. Strange
as it may seem his last words were:
"I'm good for twenty years yet"
The deceased had always been
prominent in county affairs and took
an active interest in anything that
would benefit the community. His
daughter Miss Helen McGregor, nor
Mrs. w. H. Frazier, was elected sup

Germany boasts that tuberculosis is
her greatest ally; hence it is the
greatest enemy of our country. This
disease has killed more people, maim-
ed more people and invalided home
more soldiers in France since the war
began than have the German guns, in
cluding air and undersea craft.
The Red Cross Seal campaign is a
fight against tuberculosis and for the
conservation of the life and health of
our people. The Red Cross Seal cam
paign has a two-fod purpose, to-wit:
educational and financial. Every seal
you buy is bullet in winning war
The death rate from tuberculosis has
been reduced one-half within a gen.
eration-due largely to the ef-
forts that are being made by the
American Red Cross and its affiliat-
ed boards-the National Association
for the Prevention Of tuberculosis, and
the various state associations. That
war in Europe will make more tuber-
culosis here at home because of the
rigors and dangers of army life is
certain from the experience of Canada
France, Germany and England. This
means that we must redouble our ef-
forts to fight the disease-we cannot
afford to let the campaign against
tuberculosis suffer. If each person in
Montana will do his part in the Red
Cross Seal campaign we will win this
war against tuberculosis. Some of the
divisions of the army that are fight
ing tuberculosis are: Anti-tuberculos
is societies, nurses, dispensaries, hos.
pitfalls, sanitoria, open air schools, and
boards of health. In Montana we have
one sanitorium, one state association
with 100 members, one local associa-
ton, one clinic, one dispensary, three
visiting nurses. This is not sufficient
for our needs in Montana. We have
also one county hospital with 18 beds
for tubercular patients, this is the
progressive county of Valley, where
they also have county school nurse
employed after the survey made by
the field secretary of the Montana as
sociation for prevention of tuberculos

have beds for tubercular patients in al
our local hospitals and also in ou1

MANY ENLTTMENTS
DURING PAST WEEK
Volunteers for Army and Navy
Numerous At Local Re-
cruiting Station.

Recruiting has been very brisk in
Glasgow the past week. Young men
from all over the county have been
coming in daily to sign up for SER
vice with Uncle Sans forces.
The unusual increase in volunteers
is probably due largely to the fact
that voluntary enlistment of men of
draft age ceases entirely after noon
on December Is, except in the navy
and marine corps. The volunteer en-
listments of single men within the
draft age during the past two weeks
will materially reduce the number of
Glass men in the county, but should
the proper credit be given, the quota
for the next draft call will be ma
terially reduced.

this week in the regular army follow:

Government to Purchase Seed
and Deliver it to Farmers
At Cost.
STATE Will NEED 100000 BUSHELS
New Plan Will Insure Plenty of Seed
For Spring Planting at
Reasonable Prices
to Farmers.

The state seed committee has called
upon the government to Immediately
expend one eighth of the $2,500,00O
appropriated for the purchase of seed
in the states of Montana, Texas and
North Dakota, according to Alfred
Atkinson, who in addition to being
food administrator for Montana, is
chairman of the grain committee
Montana is short 100000 bushels of
seed grains, stated Professor Atkin-
son before the meeting of Commercial
club secretaries at Great Falls this
week, and seed must be purchased if
the crops of the state are to be as
large as in former years.
The plan is to purchase the seed
wheat this time and ship it back from
Minnesota. 1t will be placed in dis
tributing elevators, one Of which will
probably be located in Great Falls and
will be sold to the farmers at cost
price, plus the cost of handling. Thus
the farmers are insured of plenty of
seed for spring planting and at
price between 50 and SO, whereas,
otherwise they would be required to
pay 81 or more in the spring through
the usual channels.
| The announcement was also made
by Professor Atkinson, that the price
of flour and sugar one year from now
will be at the same level as at the
present time, possibly lower, but in
no wise higher. The food admins
traitor will soon issue a pamphlet
containing the general items of the
law, laying special stress on the
boarding of food stuffs. The law ap-
plies to everyone, from jobber to the
housewife, and any or all are SUBJ
ject to fine or $4,000 and two years
in prison for illegally boarding food.
