in the business places in Morris and
also to release the members Of the

that all stores and business places in

quartered in barracks.
Every state in the union and all
branches Of army service are repre-
sented at this camp. There are
regulars, National guardsmen and
National army men in the same regi-
ments, and according to camp officers
there always has been perfect har-
mony between the variuos classes Of
service. Due to this fact the camp
has become known to army men as
the melting pot camp, and the ex-
pertinent has been watched with a
great deal of interest by the war de-
partment.
Spartansburg, county seat, and
the nearest city to the camp, has
been thoroly organized by patriotic
home folks, and every effort has been
made to give the men in uniform an
opportunity to experience little
"home" life during their training at
camp.

to reports, is awaiting the selectives
from Minnesota, and on their first
opportunity to visit the city they
will be taken in hand and shown

ANOTHER LOAN COMING
PROBABLY IN OCTOBER
Fourth Liberty Loan May Be for
Six Billion Dollars, Accord
ing to McAdoo

The governments financial pro-
gram for the next few months has
been disclosed by Secretary McAdoo.
He anticipates that the fourth Lib
erty Loan will probably be foated in
October, altho the banks of the
country are trying to get it put off
for a month later until the new crops
get on the market and the people
get more money. The announcement
is that the loan will be for at least
$6,OOO,OO0,0O0, the exact amount de-
pending on government expenditures
in the next few months.
For the present the banks of the
country are asked to assist the govern
ment by subscribing 5 per cent of
their gross resources monthly, and
thus furnish the money needed un-
til the bonds are fioated. Certificates
of Indebtedness will be issued to the
banks. these, to bear Az per cent
interest.
Every bank in the United States
will advance to the government
every two weeks for the next four
months sum equal to 215 per cent
of its total assets. This means that
within the next four months every
bank must raise I'm cash sum equal
to twenty per cent of its total as
sets and turn it over to the govern
ment. The certificates which the
government will give the banks will
be paid when the liberty loan is sub
scribed later.

One of the largest checks ever is-
sued by the City Of Morris was
drawn this week, It being for
$26,25O This was to pay bond OF
$500 issued 20 years ago when
the water works were installed, ana
the interest due. $4,000 OF this
money came from the sinking fund.
$500 from the profit Of the water
fund and $4,000 was gotten By re-
bonding the city for that amount. It
is expected that this last $4,000 Will
be paid OF in about Is years, from
the profits OF the water department,
$4,000 in years and $1,000 year
afterwards. The waterworks depart
ment Is now on paying basis and
the profits go into q sinking fund to
pay of the city's indebtedness.

Several fields were in shock near the

Save Own Seeds

H. j.. Baldwin, of Mortified, one
of Minnesota's leading vegetable
growers, strongly urges that more
people save their own seeds. Accord
ing to the government reports, cab
bage seed will be very scarce next
year, and, of course, it is too late
now to produce any more seed until
1919. Lettuce and radish seed are
also thought to be scarce. Nearly
every gardener can save few ripe
peas and beans for seed, and also
seed of tomatoes, peppers, radishes,
lettuce, squashes, pumpkins, spin
ach, corn, cucumbers, and melons.
Everyone who can do his bit in saw
ing seed is not only helping to defeat
the Hun but is putting money in his
own pocket.

Officers Picked From Ranks

The regular army is aways able to
absorb from 80 to SO percent of its
strength in new recruits and train
them alongside of veterans in less
than three months. Men are needed
in every branch of the service, both
mounted and dismounted. Every
man in the army today has an equal
chance for becoming a commissioned
officer, as all officers from now on
will be picked from the ranks, and
given special training. It's a case,
however, Of first come first served,
and opportunities in the army as in
civil life "wait for no man."

COAL SOON TO ARRIVE
in STEVENS COUNTY
No Hard Coal to Be Used in Fura-
aces, According to Fuel Ad-
ministrator

The retail coal dealers of Stevens
county, together with the other re-
tail dealers of Minnesota, will begin
to receive shipments of coal soon. Fol
the past seven weeks all hard coal
for the Northwest has been going to
the Dakotas, but now the traffic will
be diverted to Minnesota until so
per cent Of the allotment is delivered
here. Later on shipments will be
made until the state has received 80
per cent as much as it consumed last
winter.
There are certain rules which have
been laid down by the fuel admins
tration and these rules will be OBJ
served by the consumers as we'll as
the dealers.
Those who have not already done
so, had better place orders for wood
for use in ranges.
No hard coal viii be sold for use
in heating plants except Egg and
Buckwheat.
People who use furnaces, either
hot air, hot water or steam, must
use soft coal.
Farmers and any others who can
get wood from their groves are asked
to do so.
Dealers cannot furnish customers
more than 2-3 Of the hard coal or
dered by them until that portion Of
all orders have been filled. Rules
for further delivery will be made
later. Where a customer will not
need more than six tons however,
his entire order may be filled and
delivered. -
Soft coal may be sold and delivered
except that a person cannot purchase
more than they used last winter.

RED CROSS DRIVE
FOR ACRE PLEDGES
Farmers Will Be Asked to Make
Pledges to Finance Chapter for
Four Months

The Finance Committee of tn,
Stevens County Chapter of the Ret
Cross will next week put on a driv'
for acre pledges of grain in order tt
finance the work of the Red Cros,
chapter for four months. During
the winter, pledges were circulated
here in Morris and enough pledge:
were signed to bring in over $500 {
month. The pledges were for eighr
months, from March l to November
i, and now the finance COMMITTEES
will ask the farmers to finance the
needs of the chapter for four months
from November i to March 1. The
farmers who will be solicited will be
hose in the townships of Morris
Swan Lake, Framnas and Darnen
which are the townships in the Nor.
ris district.
The present budget of the chapter
demands about $500 a month is or.
der that the work may not s1acken
and there is every indication that
still heavier calls will be made. In
order to meet this amount, it will be
necessary for every farmer who can
possibly do so to pledge the yield OF
an acre of either wheat, oats or bar
ley.
On account of the farmers being so
very busy with the harvest, they will
not be asked to do the canvassing,
but business men will be asked to
donate their time to do this work.
This appeal should not be con-
fused with the drive made for the
Second Red Cross War Fund in May.
All but Is per cent of that fund went
to the national headquarters of the
American Red Cross and is used for
the maintainance of hospitals, SOL
diers, comforts, civil relief and recon
struction work in the devasted areas
of France and Belgium, etc., while
this drive Is exclusively for funds for
the local chapter and is used in pur-
chasing materials for socks, sweaters,
surgical dressings, hospital garments,
hospital linen, refugee garments,
etc. This material is made up by the
several work committees of the To-
cal chapter, and every one of these
committees would do more of this no.
BILE work if funds were available to
buy the materials. AS 1t is now, the
finance committee allows each COM
mittee a certain amount each month
to be spent for the purchase Of mat
eria1 for its work.
Two things are necessary for a
chapter-women who will
work and men who will supply the
funds, to keep them working. Funds
for eight months were supplied right
here in Morris and now the country
districts are being asked to supply
the funds for four months.
