LYNDEN is ALLOTTED
$4,000 LIBERTY BONDS
District Is Asked To Buy Larger
Share of New Loan Which Carries
-Four Per Cent Interest

The Lynden district has been al
lotted twenty-four thousand dollars
worth of the new issue of Liberty
Bonds that went on sale Monday
morning.
Lynden buyers purchased eighteen
thousand dollars worth of the last
allotment, and with the increased
amount of idle money in the district,
it is believed that the new issue will
be readily bought as an investment.
The bonds are issued for a term
of 25 years. and may be obtained in
denominations of $50. and multiples
of that amount. The interest rate is
four per cent. peyable semi-annually.
Interest on the bonds, up TO $4,000
worth, is free from taxes.
In buying a bond, it is only neces-
sary to pay down two per cent of the
total upon application. On a fifty
dollar bond. the applicant would on
ly have to pay down one dollar. An
additional eighteen per cent would
be due November IS, 40 per cent on
December Is. and 40 per cent on
January Is, 1918.
The Lynden State Bank will have
charge of the sale of bonds in this
district, having offered its services
to the government Hithout harge
The Bank issued the following
statement in regard to the bonds to-
day:
THE Federal authorities have re-
quested us to present the situation
to you substantially as follows:
AS the United States is at war. it
is the patriotic duty and responsible
ity of every American citizen to rally
to its support. and by so doing hasten
the day of victory and the return of
permanent peace with all its
blessings.
With this knowledge of the condi-
tions actually confronting us, it is
incumbent upon all of our people to
subscribe to this loan to the fullest
extent of their means, both present
and expectant, to help defray the war
expenses of our National Government.
All should therefore commence at
once to regulate their private and
business affairs with this idea and
obligation clearly in mind.
A liberal subscription to this loan
will not only serve the national pur-
pose but also prove a sound and pro-
fitable investment for you, in the
safest securities known-interest
paying bonds of the United States
Government and our own beloved
country, the land and people upon
which the preservation of human
rights and the uninterrupted pro-
gress of civilization now largely
depends" >"

EVERYBODY LIKES
LYNDEN'S TAXES
At Least, Nary A Soul Appeared Be-
fore Council Or School Board To
Whine About Them

Not even the smallest taxpayer in
the city of Lynden appeared Monday
evening before the city council to
protest against any item Of the city's
budget, and the council session ad-
journed promptly after passing the
estimate of expenditures.
The same situation governed the
meeting of the Lynden school board,
which carried out its work in rapid
fire order.
The city must raise $3.50 by tax
alton. slightly larger amount than
last year, while the school district
will need sS.524.12. This also runs
above last years total.
Whatcom County's share of the
state tax this year exceeds last years
total by s2O.S65.O7. The larger tax
is accounted for by the establishment
of the capitol building fund and the
heavy provisions made for the state
university, college, and normal
schools. The tax called for the fol-
owing:
General fund. .S3S,S61; school fund.
0.404.7S; military fund ,SS,619;
public highway fund. .S2S,7S7. per-

HAS HIGH PRAISE FOR SHOWING
OF PRODUCTS AT COUNTY FAIR

High praise for the showing of
Whatcom County products at the
Fair last week is contained in the fol-
lowing editorial from the Bellingham
American Reveille:
Some of the mourners have COM
planned that the unusually dry sum-
mer was handicap to the farming
business of Whatcom county-and
doubtless that is true-but after ex-
amining the exhibits of farm pro-
duee at the Whatcom County Fair
in Lynden. one wonders what could
be produced under the most favor
able conditions.
Nearly all the attractions at the
fair are a just source of pride in the
fertility of the countys SOIL and in
the energy and industry of the peop-
lie of the county, but when one at
tends a fair, he usually judges it by
the dimensions of the pumpkins and
circumference and state of perfec-
tion of the apples and the brobding-
nagian qualities of the Murphies.
They were all in the array of appel
izing 'punkins" that would
have made Ichabod Cranes mouth
water. Gravensteins that would have
been at home in the mythical garden
of Hesperides, spuds that turn the
thoughts to clay pipes, peat bogs
and Sim Feiners.
Incidently. superintendent King,
of the county farm, has shown what
the soil of Whatcom county, con-
verted from stubborn glebe and the
home of wild maple. into tillable land
can produce. 1t is neutral, too. as
to its temporary proprietorsZindif-
ferent whether it is coddled by the
hands of bootleggers, super-drunks,
words, the principal ingredient is
elbow grease, and indeed that, we are
: informed by the farm editor, is es-
sential to the successful cultivation
of the most docile soil yet discovered.
+ Whatcom county, as the Lynden
fair has abundantly shown, is favor
ed of Ceres and Pomona-and Hoo
yer. Probably the yield of fruits,
grains, berries. and vegetables this
year is a record breaker. While the
guns of democracy have been roar
ing on the distant fields of France
and Flanders the sewers and reapers
of Whatcom county have been doing
their share on the fields of the Nook
sack valley.
Thus the agricultural exhibition
at Lynden is both a source of salts
faction and of inspiration-satisfae-
tion that there is a cornucopia OF
plenty, and inspiration to wrest from
the soil next year e1en bigger and
better crops for the total allied
harvest.

FERNDALE COWS MAKE FINE
RECORDS, REPORT SHOWS

Ferndale cows are making fine rec
ords, according TO a report issued
this week by the Ferndale Cow Test
ing Association. Nels jacobson of
Lynden has Joined the Association,
and several other local dairs men are
contemplating enrolling.
The following is the report:
During September 351 cows we're
tested with the following averages
per COW; milk sos pounds; butter
fat 27.45 pounds; feed cost $3.10
Thirty-nine cows gave 1000 pounds
of milk or over, thirty-three cows
forty pounds of butterfat or better,
and of these, those listed below gave
better than fifty pounds of butterfat:
Ann E. Radford, Holstein. 1892
pounds of milk, 3.2 per cent of fat,
54.1 pounds of butterfat; E. w. Baer,
Grade Guernsey, 1875 pounds of
milk, Az per cent fat, 53.5 pounds

Holstein, 1888 pounds of milk. Al
per cent of fat, sos pounds of butter
fat; H. o. Hovander. Grade Holstein,
dc ~ mil A IF
fat, so. pounds of butterfat.
Belle Wayne King, owned by Miss
Radford of Custer, a three year old
Holstein that was leading COW for
production in August is high COW
again this month. She maintained
approximately the same flow of milk
but dropped somewhat in the test.
Below in table "A" are shown the
comparative averages for August and
September. The milk and butterfat
averages have dropped, which is to
be expected, and all dairymen agree
that September, coming as it does
just prior to the season of winter
feeding is the worst month in the
dairy year. October promises to
show an increase in production. The
fly nuisance and hot dry weather
will be pretty well passed, and quite
a few fresh cows are expected, all
of which factors should boost pro-
duction.
In table "A" are given thirty day
averages, showing the production of
the five best herds for the two months
August and September: Jos. Herm-
sen, II Grade Holstein cows, 93S
pounds milk, 5000 pounds butter
fat, feed cost s4.92; z. W. Baer. Il
Grade Guernseys, 774 pounds milk,
1929 pounds butterfat, feed cost

stems, SAT pounds milk, 32.02

Is Grade Holsteins. 719 pounds milk,

table of plums, prunes, crab apples
and berries.

ual, had a beautiful display of fresh
and dried fruits, vegetables, flowers

fees thereby.

dahlias varying from light yellow to
deep red.
A beautiful handspun linen table.
cloth, shown in DR.. Thornton flax

ladder. They also brought some six
foot Sudan grass.
Albert c. HERE exhibited fourteen
different kinds of beans grown on
his place.
Bread that was grown right in
Lynden was one of the features of
the Fair. The exhibit included the
local wheat, the flour made from ii
at a Lynden mill, and the whole
wheat bread.
