DON'T SELL WHEAT UNDER
GOVERNMENT PRICE.

Farmers of the northwest are
warned not to sell their wheat
at less than the government
price by the United States Food
Administration.
Federal Food Administrator
Ladd received the following tel
egram this morning:
"E. F. Ladd, Food Administra-
tor, Fargo, N. D.
Enlarged demands by Gen.
eral Pershing for material, re-
sulting from progress on the
Western front has necessitated
the temporary diversion of
grain ships to his service. This
temporarily ~curtails the wheat
movement from the sea-board
and has filled our sea-board and
termina | elevators and thus
checks the movement.
1T is reported that some of
the farmers have become pan
icky and are selling wheat at
less than the government price.
'There is no occasion for this.
If holders will have a little pa
thence the wheat will all be NOV
ed and the full price secured by
every grower.-Hoover.

NAMES SHOULD
BE SENT TO co. AUDITOR

Have you attended to the mat
ter of providing your soldier son,
brother or friend with a ballot ?
Auditor Hebert states that very
few requests have come to him
for this service. Give the young
mans name and address to the
County Auditor and instruct him
to forward an absent voters bal
lot to the soldier. This matter
will have to be attended to at
once as the time is short in
which to forward the ballot to
camp.

Peculiar Disease.

A peculiar malady swept over
Mexico, Mo-, last week, affecting
pr incipally school children. More
than 100 cases are reported. A
nu mber of the high school cadets
fell TO the ground, fsintine, while at
drill. Some of the faculty MEM
bers were also ill.
In the Ford plant at Detroit a
similar malady was reported, near
ly 1000 persons being i'll. The
drinking water was examined and
found to be pure. 1t is thought the
germ of the disease is in the air

AffidaVitS REQUIRED.

The Provost Marshal General has
ordered that men actively engaged
in the planting or cultivation of
crops. but who ere listed in Class l
and within the new quota should
be deferred until the end of the
new quota"
The local boards. being judicial
bodies, cannot deter the call of
such men, however, unless the farm
ers employing them comply with
the law and support their claims
for deferred calling with affiIavits
1t is therefore Of vital importance
that farmers employing necessary
men, their owe sons included, with
10 the new quota Immediately ex-
ecute ana file such affidavit with
local boards

Mary Ellen CIaWSOn.

The death of Mrs. Mary Ellen
Clawson occurred at Stoutsville
Saturday afternoon shortly after a
O'Clock, due TO heart trouble from
which she had been sufferer for
over a year. The end came sudden
ly and painlessly. in fact she had
been feeling better than usual the
day of her death.
Mrs. Clawson was the daughter of
VIM. Hail, was born in Kentucky in
1910 and at the time of her death
was n years. 6 months and Is days
old. She came to Missouri at the
age of IS years, and with the excep,
ton of a short residence in Saline
County, spent her life in this coun.
ty. Since the death of her husband
in 1904 she has made her home
with her eldest son. R. B. Clawson
of Stoutsville. Two other sons sur.
vive her. W. H. Clawson of Clar-
ence. and j. A. Clawson of Mon
roe City.
Funeral services and interment
took place at Stoutsville Sunday af-
ternoon at 3 o'clock.

Rules Are Suspended.

Two important food regulations,
just announced by the U. S. Food
Administration, are the temporary
lifting of the wheatless rules, as APP
piled in the home, and the 30.day
suspension of the meatless rules.
Families may now eat wheat
products without regard to wheat
less meals or wheatless days. but
this step is explained by the an
nouncement that in a few days
wheat will be practically unobtain-
able in any quantities, and that
therefore all meals will be virtually
wheatless.
Fittingy, the suspension of the
meatless rules. will permit eating
more meat to take the place of
wheat products The meatless rule
is raised because of the abnormal
quantities of meat supplies, partic-
ularly hogs. now flooding the mar
ket, and which cannot be absorbed
because of transportation and ship
ping problems.

Up to March 81 the German loss
on the western front was put at
100000. Some days previous to
the drive it was announced by
placard in Berlin that the kaiser
was preparing to sacrifice this num-
Der of German lives. to obtain his
objective He has not, and will not
obtain that objective. If he has al
ready sacrificed 100000 lives of his
own people and yet failed to reach
any one objective, then how many
will the entire effort cost his peo-
pie? And what will those people
say of and after the failure? Fail
ure is another defeat

German papers are already be.

German papers are already be.
ginning to talk of a stronger peace.
Volks Zeitung says: We can no
longer conclude peace on terms
which we were ready to accept a
week ago. The enemy must be
brought TO submissive spirit, and
forced to grant everything we need
in future, especially in colonies and
raw materials" Should Germany
succeed in the present struggle the
United States would have to supply
the colony. material and indemnity,
which Germany would demand.

When senator or representative
gets up in congress and makes
great roar in declaring that the
government Is not speeding up war
preparations or turning out flying
machines or ships fast enough. it
is noticed that they couch their as
sertions in language designed to
draw an answer from or force the
government to give facts which
would be of benefit to the enemy.
II is plain to be seen that these
congressman are nothing more or
less than german spies and should
be dealt with accordingly.

The hanging of the German sus-
pect, Prayer. at CuilinSville. Ill. was
a very regretable affair and is to be
deplored by all law.abidine citizens.
Still, cases of disloyalty in that Sec
ton of Illinois have been so fire.
quent of late and the Federal au-
t1Orities have been so lenient with
these people that forbearance has
ceased to be a virtue. 1t is high
time Uncle Sam was making a few
examples of these people or more
iynchings will follow.
