Good Rubbcrs For Canning.

Many failures in canning come from
using poor rubbels. A good rubber
should stand being stretched, that is,
it should come back to its shape and
it should not break if bent back on it
self. 1t should also stand up under
boiling. They should have enough
thickness. Twelve on top of each
other should measure one inch. 1t

ARE URGED TO SAVE
MACHINES.

Word is being sent out to farmers
over the country to take special pains
this fall and winter to protect their
machines. Prices have advanced
greatly, and care of farm machinery
will pay doubly well this year. So
the word is going out:
To put machines under cover as
soon as the seasons work with them
is over.
To go over every machine carefully
as soon as opportunity will permit,
Tightening bolts, replacing broken
parts, and oiling carefully to prevent
rusting.
To paint machines, as painting
lengthens the life of machine
Bridge paint is suggested as the best
for iron parts.

Notes From County
Superintendent

All reports of children illegally out
of school are turned over to the states
attorney at once, and we will insist on
prosecution without unnecessary de-
lay. There are a few cases before
the states attorney now that no doubt
will receive attention in the very near
future.
It is evident th..t we are going to
have very hard time to find teachers
for some of our schools. A great
number of vacancies exist at the pres
ent time and we haven't an applicant
to offer to any of our school boards.
Friday, September 28th, bids will
be opened for the building of four new
school houses in Exeter District No.
10, and on the same day bids will be
opened in Baker District No. 10 for
the building of one new school house.
Monday October LIST, bids will be
considered for the building of two new
school houses in Odessa District No. 9
and on the same day bids will be con-
sidered for the building of three new
school houses in Union District No.

Mason City was confident of winning
by twenty or more points, and freely
backed its team. Marshalltown pride
compelled many to accept the odds of
10, 10 and 20 points, with the result
that considerable Mason City money,
variously estimated at from $500 to
$4,000 came back to Marshaltown
On the return trip s101 was raised
by the fans to purchase sweaters for
the team.
The Marshalltown contingent was
corrteously treated except in the as

LIVES POURED OUT
FOR RUINED TOWNS
Extremely Bitter Struggles
Continue to Rage About
Fresnoy and Bu|Iecourt.
GERMANS MASS TROOPS

BY the Associated Press
The battles for Fresnoy and Bulfe-
court continue to rage with fury
which recalls the bloody struggles Tor
Forts Douaumont and VauN in the days
of the battle of Verdun.
Thousands of lives are being poured
out for the mastery of the little heaps
of ruins that once were villages
and the blackened, blasted stumps that
were once woods until these towns
threaten to rank with Nimy in the
price paid for possession.
The enormous concentration of Ger
man divisions on the British front and
the marked increase in gun power give
added significance to the reports that
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg is with
drawing both men and artillery from
the eastern area. The disorganization
of the Russian army has apparently
had serious effect on the whole al
lied situation and has materially In
creased the burdens imposed on the
British and French.

COMMITTEE EXPLAINS
WAR REVENUE MEASURE
Means Tax Of About $33 Per Capita
for Americans-All to
Share Burden.

Contending that the present genera
ton should bear an equitable share of
the war burdens through direct taxa
tion, the committee on ways and
means in reporting the war revenue
bill to the House says:
TT is estimated that the receipts of
the federal government. including pos
tai receipts. for the next fiscal year
under existing law VIII amount to
$1,500.000.0 The proposed bill Is
estimated to yield during twelve
month period s1,sO0,0OO.Ooo additional
This will make the total receipts of
the government for the next fiscal year
$4,000, 900, 900, or about s33 per capita
as compared to Great Britain, with
population less than half that of the
United States. whose receipts, lnclud-
ing postal receipts for the year ending
March 81, 1917, amounted to $2,1Ss,-
00,000 or about $50 per capita.
THE committee believes that the
American people were never in more
favorable condition to pay reason
able amount of taxes for war purposes
in addition to those for normal pur-
poses, than at the present time. The
committee has endeayored to distribute
eouitably this additional burden OF
taxation and SO to levy the proposed
taxes as to necessitate as little read
justment or disturbance to business as
uoSSible.''

YOUNG KENTUCKY FARMER
HACKS FAMILY TO DEATH
Kills Father. Mother, Sister-in-Law
With AK, Then Shoots Brother
and Himself.

BY the Associated Press.
ELKTON. Ky. May 10.-Frank Mil
len, a prominent young farmer. aged
thirty insance, it is supposed. from
brooding over ill-health, this morning
killed his father. Charles Millen: his
mother, his brother Elmo. and the lat
ters wife, a bride of three months, and
then ended his own life by hanging
and shooting himself. at the family
home three miles from this place.
News of the tragedy, the most awful
in the history of Todd county, reach
ed the authorities at this place through
a telephone message from Frank Mil
len himself to Coroner Bartlett about
80 o'clock this morning. The message
said:
Come out to Charley Millen's at once,
the whole family is dead but me and
I'll be dead when you get here"
The coroner notified Sheriff Chest
mutt and Chief of Police Edwards. and
with other officers went TO the scene
at once. They found the bodies of
Charles Millen and wife and Mrs Elmo
Millen in various rooms in the house.
They had been killed with an ak to
all appearances. Elmo Millen's body was
found in a stable he had been shot.
Frank Millen's body was found hanging
in the porch with a shotgun wound
through the heart All We're dressed. the
victims apparently having been engaged
IN their customary HloFfllHs occupatio
when struck down. In room back OF
the porch was found this note:
May g. The deed was done 10 avoid
suffering on this earth. To executors:
Sell all livestock at once.
(Signed) Last Heir, Frank Millen."
The family had lived happily together
and was prosperous. Elmo Millen was
well known in political circles in this
county. Frank Milien had been known as
a quiet, industrious young man, and was
well liked generally. His deed can be eN-
planned only by the supposition that his
mind had given way under brooding over
fears of tuberculosis, with which doctors
are said to have told him he was afflicted.
