New Council Slightly Suffragettish.

Tuesdays village election, in spite
of the fact that four of the men pull
ed thru by the skin of their teeth,
brought tears and anguish to the
hearts of the faithful. Their hero
got it where the chicken got the AK,
and a woman turned the trick. The
successful candidates are: A. E..
Holmberg. Frank Jones, Fred Lutt-
ropp, Nels Halgeson, Mrs. Theo. Fohl.
The opposition paid the ladies the
compliment of saying that the women,
if elected, would not permit pool halls
to violate the law. What are these
places doing that they are afraid of
law enforcement? Are they operat-
ing slot machines; are they violating
the gambling laws of the state? And
are the men letting pool halls operate

Propose State Warehouses.

The farmers Of the state are agitat-
ing the proposition Of state-owned
warehouses for potatoes and fruits.
And why stop there? II the state
owns the warehouses, there will be no
more cornering of food products by
the geedy CUTS who wax fat at the ex-
pense Of people who must eat. Wheat
is 81 per bushel today, but who owns
the VIII at? Not the men who labo. ed
and toiled to grow it! Long ago it
was bought up by spectators who are
now reaping what they did not SOW.
and taking profit that ought to go to
the men who produced it. They are
rObbing those who must consume

Harold Kinne A Great D,oater.


The Los Angeles Express of April
II, has large picture of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin debating team, of
which Harold j. Kline of Orofino is
one. The W sconsin students met a
debating tea from the College of law
of the University of Southern Califor-
mia in debate for the college cham
pionship of the United States, Cali
fornia debaters having won over Col
umbia the year before. The question
debated had to do with Strikes and
Lockouts on Public Utilities. While
the California men won over Wiscon-
sin, the big thing is that Harold is
now rated among the best college
men, winning his place by hard, stud
ious work.

JOKE ON THE ROBBER

Fayetteville, July 29.-Bank of FL kins, located at Elkins, this county, 10 miles southeast of here, was en- tered by robber last night some time after midnight. The loot amount ed to only one dollar and fifty cents, which was taken from the cash drawer. Entrance was effected by breaking the window of the building. No attempt to blow the safe was made but the combination was tempered with. Cashier Hayden Smith made this discovery early Sunday morning.
 Bloodhounds were sent to the scene this afternoon and took up the trail. The robber had not been caught late tonight. The Bank of Elkins was robbed about two weeks ago. Orville Evans is being held here following arrest and identification in connection with the Drake's Creek robbery. He denies guilt.

BIGGEST ISSUES YET
 FACED BY CONGRESS
Food Control, Revenue, Prohi- bition Come Up This Week. Resolution for National Pro- hibitiOn Before the Senate.

Washington, July 29.-All three of the big issues before Congressional control, revenue and prohibition-are on the congressional calendar this week, with minor questions coming up in such number that the leaders are about resigned to indefinite prolonga- tion of the session.
 The immediate work to be done on food and revenue legislation must be done in committee, but before the week is over the food conferees and the Senate finance committee, revising the war tax bill, hope to report out their measures.
 Meantime the Senate will take up tomorrow for a vote Wednesday the resolution of Senator Sheppard pro- posing submission of a national pro- hibition amendment to the constitu- ton.
 Senator Sheppard plans to open the prohibition discussion, which promises Ia lively contest, touching many war questions. The vote, both sides ad- init, will be extremely close. Dry leaders hope for about 65 votes, or just about the necessary two-thirds for adoption The resolution still would have to pass the House, which in 1914 rejected a similar measure.
 During the week the Senate com merce committee expects to report the trading with the enemy bill. Chair man Chamberlain of the military com mittee will bring in his bill for draft ing subjects of the European allies in this country, and Senator McCum- ber's resolution authorizing the presi- dent to negotiate treaty changes to permit such drafting will~be reported from the foreign relations committee.
 The House is in recess waiting for the conference report on the food bill, but there is a growing sentiment that if the extra session is to continue in- definitely, the channels of general Legislation, now closed under a gen eral understanding to consider only urgent administration matters, should be opened up.
 Hearings on the S5,000, 0,0O0000 esti- mates for the army as basis for a record-breaking general deficiency bill begin in the House appropriations committee tomorrow, and Tuesday the House military committee will take up an alien drafting bill similar to that to be reported to the Senate.

SLACKERS I NARKANSAS

Hope, July 29.-COnsiderable eX- citement has been createn in this sec tion on account of number of public meetings which have been held in the southern part of this county in oppo- sition to the selective draft. It is re- liably reported that nearly 200 men have signed an agreement to support Tom Watson of Georgia in his fight against sending of American armies to Europe, and each signer is said to have subscribed money to a fund to be used by Watson in carrying his fight through the courts of the coun- try.
 It is said that the leaders of this seditious move are well known follow ers of Watson's political ideas. It is not thought that any who are subject to draft have signed the agreement.

 GOES TO THE FRONT
Acain Will Make Effort to Check Russian Retreat-AH Russia Conference Regarded More MOmentOus.

Petrograd, July 2S, Delayed. )- premier Kerensky has again started for the front.
 The destination of M. Kerensky is army headquarters, where he will hold q conference with the command are m the various fronts and also with Generals Alexieff, Ruzsky and cnrke and former war minister cntcbkoff. At the conference it will he decided whether M. Kerensky will retain his portfolio of war minister.
 Admiral Kolchak, former comman- der of the Black Sea fleet, IS men, tioned in connection with the ministry of marine, a post also held by M. Kerensky.
 London, July 29.-The Russian re- verses on the Galician and Carpath- ian fronts, which ordinarily would have created a situation of the utmost gravity, are viewed as secondary in Petrograd to the great all-Russia con- ference. which opens at Moscow on Tuesday. according to advices reach ing here
 The outcome of this conference, at which every class and race in the new republic will be represented, holds de- cisions of the utmost importance not alone to Russia, but to all the allies.
 One thing is certain. Premier Ker- ensky will be the dominating figure of the conference, and Kerensky is the man on whom all hopes of pull ing Russia through" are pinned. He is the new Napoleon" of blood and iron-the outstanding figure raised by the war-in the view of every one of Europe's diplomats here and confi- dence is felt he will so strengthen his position through the conference that he will be able to deal with the freest of hands with the extremists and oth CT dlS0rganlZlng influences within the new state.
 This means that he will extend the iron rule of discipline into the military forces and restore that military obe- dience which is of prime necessity be- fore a successful stand can be hoped for

FOOD AND DRINK ESSENTIALS
Divided Into Five Important Glasses
Grain Feed and Water Are
Most Important.

The essential food and drink for
poultry may be divided into five
classes, as follows: First, grain food
second, vegetable food; third, meat
food; fourth, minerals in the form OF
grit and shell; fifth, plenty Of clean
water to drink
1t may be useful to keep this divi-
sion in mind. 1t may be well also to
ask oneself whether he is giving his
flock all of the five classes Of food and
drink. All Of the five are Of first i'm
pOrtance. A flock can get along after
a fashion without one or two OF the
five named, but not to very good ad-
vantage. The best, most economical
results will be secured by the use of
all of the five classes. The first and
fifth are the most important, doubt
less.

its of the animal and its surrounding
local conditions. The following tables
will give a good idea, however:
Horses, 6 to II gallons a day each.
Cattle. 6 to u gallons a day each.
Hogs, IL to gallons a day each.
Sheep, 1 to 2 gallons a day each.
When estimating the consumption
of water for large herds of cattle and
horses, old and young, as they are
found on the average farm, it is safe
to reckon it per head at q minimum
of one cubic foot day; that is, about
half of the minimum amount needed
for each person.
Every one who intends to study
water-supply problems should know
the following relations:
I. gallon equals .134 cubic feet.
2. cubic foot equals 1,728 cubic
inches.
8. 1 cubic foot equals 7.48 gallons.
4. 1 cubic foot Of water weighs ap-
proximately 621k pounds.
g. L gallon OF water weighs 8 1-3
pounds.
6. 1 gallon contains 231 cubic inches.
z. S11k gallons make one barrel.
Chemically pure water is never
found In nature. It can be obtained
only by diStillation. When left in con-
tact with common air. or with earthly
or organic substances. water rapidly
absorbs parts of them and becomes
impure. Even the rain water that falls
from the clouds is not entirely pure,
but contains dust particles, ammonia,
and traces of numerous other ingred-
tents. However, as most of these adj
mixtures are harmless, the problem is,
therefore, not how an entirely pure
water can be obtained, but rather how
