MOLYBDENITE FOUND
 NEAR CHLORIDE

Word was received in Kingman this week that an important discovery of molybdenite had been made on the 285-foot level of the New Tennessee shaft at Chloride. It was said the rare mineral would asay between 4 and F per cent molybdenite.
 The ore was first encountered about 270 feet from the surface. From there on down to 285 the mineral came in increasing quantities until the man. agement of the New Tennessee de- cided to have some of the ore tested.
 Considerable excitement was report ed at Chloride over the find and it is said the shaft is to be rushed down to the 500 level.
 Sam Rhea, one of the owners of the Silver Union group, near the New Tennessee property upon hearing of the strike began to investigate some ore he had concluded was graphite. He says it is very similar to the New Tennessee ore and now believes he has some good molybdenite.

RAILROAD HEAD LOOKS
 FOR SUDDEN WAR END

CHICAGO, Oct. HE. P. Ripley of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway company, looks for a quick finish of the world war. 'The Ger mans" he said, must fight to the end with their armies as now organized. They have no reserve force from which to draw, and cannot possibly last till their children reach military age. On the other hand, the allies are gaining in strength steadily by the ar rival of American units at the front. In a little while the allied armies will be overwhelming, and the Germans will be crushed in the spring, at the latest. heard New York man cap able of discussing the subject express tn opinion that the Germans would ask for peace negotiations before Christmas, but I am inclined to be- lieve that operations in the spring will be necessary for a complete victory.
 'In your opinion, has the United States government conducted it's part of the war wisely?" Mir. Ripley was asked.
 "As a whole, our government has done remarkably well" he replied 'The administration very wisely drafted the best business and profes- sional men obtainable to help in the emergency, regardless of the politica utilization of those selected. In ad' dition, to get more efficiency, it threw into the waste basket lot of hamper ing laws, including most of the anti trust laws. True, great many blum ders have been made, but we must re member that the war game with most of us is new. It is easy to criticist the government for it's management oi the war, but critics are not always fair"

HAYNES QUITS STATE
 COUNCIL OF DEFENSE

TUCSON, Arizona, Oct. 11-Allan B. Jaynes, Publisher of the Citizen, who has been serving aschairman of the publicity committee of the Arizona Council of Defense has rendered his resignation to the executive committee with the request that a Phoenix man be appointed in his place, with a view to centralizing the work of the De- fense Council. Inasmuch as the head quarters of the council have been To- cated in Phoenix and MT. Jaynes lives in Tucson he has worked under con- siderable handicap. The Executive Committee acceded to Mir. Jaynes' re- quest and appointed Colonel James H. McClintock chairman of the commit tee. Colonel McClintock who is a newspaper man of long years exper- fence in Arizona will immediately take up the work. He has been serving on the committee, and Mir. Jaynes whom he succeeds will continue to serve as a member of the committee.

supplying the sinews of war to de- feat the kaiser.
 Other speakers were the Rev. T. H. Dodd and E. Elmo Bollinger who spoke on the patriotic phase of the loan.
 Reports received by J. Fl. Rosen- berg, chairman of the Mohave County Liberty league, are that Arizona is falling down on the second loan. Ad- vices from Phoenix state that every section of the state must get into the campaign harder and with more vigor the next two weeks or this state will make a very poor showing. Mir. Rosenberg added that the campaign is not meeting with the success that the first loan did during the early stages and that unless a supreme ef- fort is made, this county will not sub scribe as literally as before. He UT ged every person in the county to take a vital interest in the campaign and declared the fact must be realized that the nation is facing a crisis un- less this loan is a success.
 Business men of Kingman and other towns in the county are putting forth their utmost efforts to make the loan a success, but the people in general appear apathetic. A great deal will depend on Oatman, which to date has not been visited. A local committee is busy, however, making arrange ments for a big rally there next Tues day night and number of Kingman ] people expect to make the trip.

FIND RICH OLD CLAIM
 WAS LOCATED. IN 1883

P. W. Chase and wife have recent ly located a claim near the Leviathan mine in the Copperville district and in looking over the property found it had been located in 1883 by man by the name of McKensie. No work was ever done, however, but in an old tum- bled down monument, built in 1883, was found an old rusty can with To- cation papers in it. The rust had eat en through the can, but the writing svery plain and the papers were well preserved. This relic of 34 years standing is considered quite curios- ity and several people have called to see it.
 The new locators have done their assessment work and have a fine showing of silver. The property joins the Leviathan, one of the big molyb- denum producers. Mir. and Mrs. Chase are very much elated over the property and are doing some good work on the claim. They have nam- ed it the Centennial"

GOAL WILL SELL AT SI2 TON THIS
 WINTER, BELIEF
Local Dealers Predict Scar city on Account of War Conditions; Operators Re fuse to Sell Product for $2.6O.

That the price of coal this winter will not exceed SIP a ton is the wei come news given out by local dealers this week. There is one discordant note, however, in the statement that there very likely will be a scarcity of the article
 Jay Gates, manager of the Central Commercial company, declared in an interview this week that he had re- ceived information contradictory to the recent announcement from Wash ington that a price of S2.60 ton at the mine had been fixed by the federal fuel adninistrator.He said the Gallup operators, who supply this section, have refused absolutely to furnish coal at S2.60 ton at the mine. Their attitude is said to be that if the gov ernment insists on that price, the gov ernment will have to take over the mines and operate them.
 "We are going to be up against a coal scarcity this winter, firmly be- ieve," said MT. Gates. He added that upon the suggestion of federal author ities and railroad officials a few weeks ago the dealers laid in as heavy sup plies as they could handle at that time The dealers were urged to take advan- tage of the situation and buy coal, for it was represented that shortly the roads would be using all their equip ment to move troops and war supplies. On that assumption many of the deal CTS bought heavily at a price higher than that which the government now wants to fix. It is said that if the dealers were to sell their coal at fixed low prices they would lose consider able money.
 It is believed that the government and coal operators in various districts will arbitrate their differences and reach a scale far and amicable to all concerned. The operators contend that there should be no universal price arguing that conditions are different in the various dIstrcts and that the prce in each district should be deter mined upon local conditions.

SMOKERS, GHEWERS
 THREATEN BOYCOTT
 ID DEFEAT DEALERS

Consorts of Dame Nicotine openly rebelled this week against the dictates of government and society. When il was announced that local tobacco deal CTS had advanced the price from 50 to 100 per cent on all goods on ae- count of the war tax ranging from 5 per cent to 20 per cent, there was a mighty howl among the tobacco chew CTS and smokers.
 Congress just before it adjourned enacted a bill providing a war tax of one-fourth cent on 5-cent goods; one half cent on 10-cent goods; three fourth cent on 15-cent goods and one cent on 20-cent goods. The first of the week local tobacco and cigarette dealers jumped the price on 5-eent goods to 10 cents; on 10-cent goods to 15 cents or two for a quarter and on 15-cent goods to 20 cents or two for 35.
 Many people are asking how the dealers figure they are performing their patriotic duty by taking advan- tage of the situation to double their profits. A 5-cent cigar or piece ot chewing tobacco, which is taxed one fourth cent. is jumped to 10 cents The government tax is an increase ot 5 percent, while the dealer fixes the price at an increase of 100 percent himself taking 95 per cent of the raise and giving the government 5 percent
 On 10-cent cigarettes, cigars and chewing tobacco, the increase is 5C per cent. On this, the government gets 10 per cent, leaving 40 percent increase for the dealer.
 The howl is so loud that many mer are threatening to go the "tobacct wagon, using the well known method of boycotting to defeat the designs ot the dealers.

CONSERVE BREAD AND MEAT

Every citizen now realizes that the
two things in our food supply that
must be conserved are bread and meat.
This can be effectively done not only
i'll their economical use but also in
using proper care to protect and guard
the supply.
1t is needless to say that now is the
time of all times when live stock
should be carefully protected from dis
ease. a loss of hogs or other live
stock Of the meat producing classes
is not only a loss to the owner but il
is a direct decrease in the food sup
ply which should have such careful
guarding at the present time.
\ loss OF food grains from improper
care is another instance of loss in the
food supply. All food grain should be
watched very carefully 10 see that it is
remaining in proper condition. Food
grains should not be threshcd and
stored until they are in proper condi-
tion to store safely.
In many cases during the past few
The Brookings register. [volume] (Brookings, Brookings County, S.D.) 1903-1971, 1917-11-08

months there have been severe losses
of meat producing animals and food
grains by fire. As a part of our pro-
gram of economy greater %precaution
prevent fires. Only in this way can
the losses of bread and meat to the
public be prevented.
Losses of the classes mentioned
above are not such in all cases that
even the owner can protect himself
by insurance. and in no case will in
surance protect the public. Just now
the public is interested IL the bread
and meat itself and not in its value.
While every one of our citizens must
be protected against loss by any
means available to him, yet in addition
to that it is his patriotic duty just
now to protect the bread and meat
supply of the nation by preventing its
destruction if possible, because any
food grains or meat animals that are
destroyed are entirely lost to the pub
lie and can not be restored. Guard
the grain and live stock with greater
care than is ordinarily used because
the risk is now somewhat greater than
ordinary and it is a patriotic duty just
now to do so.
