AUDUBON COUNTY IS
SHORT OF ESTIMATE
MEN WHO REGISTERED THURS.
DAY NOT AS NUMEROUS AS
STATE HAD EXPECTED.

Last Thursday the men of Audi
bon county between the ages of Is
and 81 and 81 and As registered in
accordance with the order issued by
the President. The estimate placed
on Audubon county by the state man
ayers was 1871. The total number
of registrants was 1853, which is
more than 800 below the estimate.
This ratio, however, is not the case
over the state or nation. 1t is re-
ported that throughout the country
the registration is per cent above
the estimate.
The registration board has divided
the registrants into different groups
as required by the war department.
This reveals some interesting facts.
There are 1,042 native born citi-
zens, 1873 naturalized citizens, II citi-
zens by fathers naturalization before
registrants majority, so declarant

ent aliens, making total of all who

SALE WAS A
RECORD BREAKER
WORLD SOLD AT SlEVERS'
SALE LAST TUESDAY.

People or Audubon county can
scarcely realize that the worlds rec
ord was broken and a new record es-
tablished that will go down in his
tory at the hog sale OF Fred Sievers
last Tuesday. Yet that is just what
has happened. When Col. Jack, the
great Poland China boar, was sold in
the ring Tuesday afternoon there was
spirited bidding and the hundreds of
buyers who were present did not
dream that a new record was going
to be made. The big herd boar start
ed at good price. The bidding kept
up until il reached the fabulous sum
of $4,000 and the hog was sold
to Paul Wagner, of Pierce, Nebr.. one
of the greatest and most successful
, breeders of the west. He had long
admired Mr. Sievers' type of hogs
and was determined to own Col. Jack
regardless of the price. The sale
was heralded by the breeders as a
new sensation in the Poland China
world
Three of the sons of Col. Jack sold
for from $1,000 to $3.50 each. Mr..
Sievers had so head of boars in the
sale, which netted him a little over
S35, 900, or little more than 800
average. His sow sale last year av-
eraged about $500. but his sale Tues
day was the topnotcher.
Fred Sievers began the raising of
pure bred big type Poland China
hogs in the summer of 1914. That
fall he held his first sale. Ii was
but an ordinary sale, but lie was
learning fast and from year to year
developed a type of hog that was
popular and in great demand Wher-
ever he exhibited he won premiums.
He won many premiums at the state
fair at Des Moines and also at the
National Swine Show in Omaha.
1t can be >truthfully said that Fred
Sieyers has put Audubon on the map
Buyers from . different states were
represented at Tuesdays sale, which
was regarded by all breeders as be-
ing the biggest and most pretentious
sale ever held.
Audubon county is proud OF the
distinction Mr. Sievers has brought
to himself and to the community
Present conditions have interferred
somewhat with the progress of the
business, but he is working to keep
the business going and in the future
as in the past, will endeayor to raise
type OF hog that the breeders of
the country demand. II is as impor-
tant to raise good hogs as it is to
have soldiers in the trenches, and all
will agree that Mr. Sievers is doing
his full share.

YOUNG MEN ARRIVE OVERSEAS

terday afternoon that his two sons,
Floyd and Glen Turner, had arrived
safely in France. Both youn gmen
are in the End Handley Paige De-
tachment 1t is quite unusual for
brothers to be in the same regiment
but it was at their request. Floyd
was at Waco, Texas, for long time
while Glen was at FIT. Omaha. Glen
secured a transfer and reached New
York Just a short time before they
embarked. 1t will be good news to
their friends to learn that they have
arrived safely and knowing the ex-
cellent fighting qualities of both. we
do not doubt but what they will give
good account of themselves while
in the service.

NO JURY FOR NEXT
TERM OF DISTRICT COURT

Clerk of the District Court, John
Horning informed us this morning
that there would be no jury cases at
the October term of the District
Court which will convene in this city
Oct 18th. This was arranged so
that the farmers would not be taken
from their work, as it is absolutely
necessary for them to continue their
work as long as the weather is fav-
orable. Mr.. Horning took the mat
ter up with Judge Cullison and he
thought Mr.. Mornings suggestion
was a good one, and after a consul
tation with the attorneys of the
county, the judge made an order
that no jury would be called.
Probate and equity matters will
be heard. There is not a great deal
20 demand the attention of the court
at this time. Folks are letting their
little differences go by unnoticed and
are devoting all of their energies to
the winning of the war.

LIBERTY LOAN MEETING
HERE NEXT TUESDAY

Next Tuesday will be a big day in
Audubon when all of the township
chairmen and the district solicitors
for the Fourth Liberty Loan meet
in this city at 1890 for the purpose
of making the final arrangements to
successfully carry out the plan that
has been adopted to put Audubon
county over the top.
For this occasion X. b., Wallace.
of Council Bluffs, chairman of this
district, has been secured to deliver
an address. Mr.. Wallace has the
honor of having had the best organ
ization in the state in past Liberty
Loan drives. In fact, his plan was
so efficient that We understand 1t
has been adopted in other parts Of
the country where 1t is expected to
bring the same degree of success.
Mr.. Wallace Is one of the best
posted men in the state and has that
happy faculty Of being able to i'm
press an audience with his utter
anees. He has made patriotic speeches
in this city before, and those who
have already heard him are pleased
to know that he Is to return.
1t has been decided to hold the
big drive in Audubon county Mon
day, Sept. 30th, from 800 a. m. to
IL m. During those three hours the
people of Audubon county will sub
scribe their quota whatever it may
be. In our next issue We hope to be
able to give fuller details. In the
meantime let everyone consider the
matter seriously and do our utmost
to keen Audubon county in the list
where she rightfully belongs.

FIRST SALE BIG SUCCESS.
Dreher Bros held their great re-
duction sale of advanced big type Pc
land China hogs at the sale pavilion
in this city last Monday. A good
sized crowd was present, many of
them coming from adjoining states.
There were 65 head in the offering
and the average was about see.
While this is net high, vet for the
first sale it is considered by breed
ers as very good average.
The herd had a splendid founda-
tion and had it not been that the
boys have been called into the serv-
ice, they would have continued in
the business and in few years would
no doubt have made good record.
The herd was the property of Chris
and Gus Dreher. two of our enter
prising young men. Chris was called
into the service the fore part of the
month and Gus is in the new regis
tration and will also be called int
army service soon.
