Captain T. E. Y Seldom is billed to
speak in the Armory in this city to

to this speech which is to be given

urge our people to come out and lis
ten to one of the best takers now do
ing work in this line. He has great
message to impart to you and you
should put aside your cares and pleas
ures, too, to go out and listen to what
he has to say. We know that many
speakers have been here talking along
these lines and many more will prob
ably follow Capt. Seddon, but that is
neither here nor there, he is to be
here, is working in a good cause and
he should be greeted by large and
Enthusiastic crowd. Hon. A. P. Han
son will preside at the meeting. Re-
member that tomorrow, Saturday
night is the date, and the Armory is

be met by the dealer. This MAXI

in some instances the normal pre-
war margin ""
In addition to the above margins
the retailer who carries butter in
cold storage more than two full cal
endar months may add not more
than 1c per pound and an additional
lac a pound for each calendar month
thereafter during which he carries
the butter in cold storage. The total
amount for carrying butter in cold
storage so added, however shall not
exceed &c per pound. =
The Food Administrator will con-
slider an sale of butter by retail
dealer at a greater margin than here
in outlined as evidence subecting the
dealer to a revocation of his license,

vides.

tions to be in favor Of the dealer, &C.
cording to an order of the United
States Food administration an
nounced today, and received by w.
A. Donnelly, secretary of the North
Dakota Retail Merchants associa-
ton.
The order, which also includes
regulations for manufacturers, brok-
er and commission merchants, limits
the profit on butter held in storage
to 2 cents pound. Revocation of
license is penalty for violation of the
order, which follows in full:
The attention of all retail dealers
in butter is called to Rule 1 of the
above regulations, which reads as
follows:
Butter to be sold at reasonable
advance over cost. The licensee
dealing in butter shall sell such but
ter without regard to the market
or replacement value at the time of
the sale at not more than a reason
able advance over cost to him Of the
particular butter sold.
AoN1uCI&, CIIdC oil ucdlcI MAY dV-
erage the cost of all cold storage but
ter of the same grade placed by him
in cold storage warehouse in any
calendar month, and hay sell such but
ter at not more than a reasonable ad-
vance over such average COST When
dealer averages the cost of any but
ter stored in a calendar month, he
must average the cost of all butter
stored in that month.
Cost for the purpose of this Rule
shall include:
/. Purchase price.
2. Transportation charges, if any
3. Storage charges actually in
Cured on cold storage butter.
4. Insurance charges actually in,
, Cured on cold storage butter.
5. Interest on money invested at
the current rate, while butter is ir

6. Actual cost of printing if the
butter is put in print form from tubs
or cubes.
Cost shall not include any allow
ances for shrinkage in weight-commis-
sions or other expense than those
herein listed
Under the above rule the Retail
Section of the Distribution of Per
ishables of the United States Food
Administration has investigated the
cost of handling butter at retail and
has determined that an advance in
excess Of to 6 cents per pound
over cost (as defined in Rule y is
unreasonable, and will be considered
: evidence of violation of Rule l. The
5 cents per pound represents the
maximum margin for stores conduct
ed on the cash and carry, or no
service plan, while 6 cents per
pound is the maximum margin for
the extra service stores extending
credit and delivery. Dealers whose
deliveried store door cost figures in
fractions may have the benefit OF
such fractional cost.
For example, butter costing at store
door 461a per pund would carry q
maximum of 51a per pound for the
cash and carry and no service stores
and SIC per pound for the extra ser.
vice or credit and delivery stores.
In determining margins at Sc anc

THE GOAL ALMOST REACHED.

The GOAl ALMOST kEACHEO.
The war savings stamp campaign Of
last June secured in this state sub
scriptiOns for nearly ten million dol
lars worth Of stamps, and to the full
fillment of these pledges the hundreds
of hard working and faithful monitors
all over North Dakota. are devoting
untiring energy. The June drive was
a wonderful accomplishment, but it
did not reach the states quota by
nearly three million dollars, and to
reach that goal by the end of the
year and put North Dakota safely
over the top is the aim of the war
savings organization. !
While thousands of patriotic Dako-
tans bought war savings stamps to
their limit in the June campaign
many other thousands, for one reason
or another, failed to be numbered
among this Thrift Army, and it is to
these appeal is now made to enlist,
anu place l\OTll DdhOld III lNC luANS
Of full-quota states, on or before New
Years day. 49, * <: -.
The vacation period Is now over
and all the stamp selling agencies
should make fresh start in securing
additional purchasers. The monitors
should not be left to do all the re-
naming work. In every community
the war savings societies can easily
add to their membership from those
who earlier in the year were unable
to become identified with this great
thrift movement, and there are many
many people who, if approached, will
be glad to add to their earlier sub
scriptiOns.
The splendid war savings Organiza'
tons of the several counties, the state
committee feels assured, can be de-
pended upon to devote the last four
months of the thrift campaign to q
whirlwind finish.

DUTY OF PosTmAs1ERs

. Postmasters Of North Dakota arO
urged by the State War Savings Com.
mittee to discourage ~ far as possible
the cashing Of war savings stamps.
Fortunately, the requests for redemp-
ton Of stamps are not frequent, as
most North Dakotans, the State Com
mittee believes, bought the stamps
with the idea of holding them until
maternity. The people generally
realize that the ownership Of war
savings stamps gives them the COM
Portable feeling Of participation in
their country's effort to win the war,
and they would feel like slackers
upon losing that sense Of partnership,
unless the direst necessity caused the
premature redemption Of the stamps.
The postmasters are also urged by
the State Committee to always keep 4
supply Of war savings and thrift
stamps on hand as complaints have
been made that some Of the offices do
not nave stamps on sale. ANY district
postoffice may have it's credit in
creased by special requisition on the
central accounting postmaster to take
care Of an unusual demand for war
savings stamps which may arise, and
the central accounting postmasters, in
rush instances, may order supplies Of
stamps through the Fargo office.
Great reliance is placed upon them
by the government to lend every as
sistance in this campaign, as the post
office, more than any other agency, is
the place where people 60 to buy the
stamps. In the past the postmasters
have been Of the greatest assistance In
selling these government securities,
and it is hoped their interest in the
campaign will be maintained to the
end,
