ORDER RESCINDED
SOUTH DAKOTA WILL CONTINUE
TO RECEIVE COAL FROM
LAKE DOCKS,

Aberdeen, March 1.-W. G.. Bick-
elhaupt, federal fuel administrator
for South Dakota, received a tele-
gram from the superintendent of dis
tribution in the national fuel admin
istration, stating that after further
investigation ii had been deemed in
advisable to discontinue shipments of
coal from the head of the lakes to
South Dakota points. Accordingly
shipments of coal from that direction
will continue to come through to
South Dakota as usual.
A week or two ago the announce
ment that DR.. ii. A. Garfield, nation
al fuel administrator, was about to
issue orders that no more coal should
come to South Dakota from the head
of the lakes aroused much interest
and drew a protest from the members
of the state council of defense. AT
their meeting at Sioux Falls last
week.
Notice Of the decision to rescind
the order will be received with gen
eral satisfaction in the state.

the bakers are urged to use more
than the required 20 per cent of sub
stitutes in a special bread designed
for use on wheatless days.
Rule 2, class /, baking regulations
has been amended to provide for the
baking of a three-quarter pound loaf,
Variations of three-quarters of an
ounce over and three-quarters of an
ounce under this weight are permit
ted in individual ~loaves, but the av-
erage weight of not less than rs
loaves shall be not less than the pre-
scribed weight. The new loaf may
be baked single or in twin form, two
in a pan. and its manufacture is sub
ject to the same rules as all other
bread. The new weight simply adds
an additional size, is not intended to
displace the one-pound unit and was
adopted as a wheat conservation
measure on the showing that in some
large cities there are families which
require less than one pound of bread
per day. Its price should be relative
ly lower than that of the pound loaf.

EXTENSION WORK
MOVEMENT FOR THE APPOINT
MENT OF HANSON COUN-
TY MAN.

Fulton, March by the resigna-
ton of Gordon Randelet, state direc-
tor Of farm extension work in South
Dakota, this state loses a valuable
man, and North Dakota, to which
state he will go for similar work,
makes a distinct gain, for it is gen.
orally conceded by those who have
watched his work in South Dakota
that few men in the United States are
his superiors i'm his line of work.
The residents of Hanson county
have inaugurated a movement for the
appointment of III. K. Dawes, of Han
son county, a seed corn expert for
South Dakota. They claim he is
worthy of recognition in any branch
of agricultural extension work. AS
a promoter of farm institute work
Mr.. Dawes has gained a statewide
reputation, of which his fellow citi-
zens of Hanson county are proud.
AS the originator of what has be-
come widely known as the Fulton
Yellow Dent Corn" he has proven
himself a benefactor to the farmers
of South Dakota and those in corn
growing sections of other states.

SONS FOR SECURING
EXEMPTION.

Kansas City, Mo-, March 1.-The
very serious business of selecting
from the manhood of Kansas City
and vicinity the representatives in
the national army was attended by
much humor and pathos. The draft
appeal board from its opening ses-
sion was besieged by throngs who
sought to serve their country in any
but a military way and exhausted
their ingenuity in thinking up rea-
o N why they should not be drafted.
And in contrast, there were those
who yearned for army life and some
times were hard put to it to prove
they would be useful to their coun-
try in soldier uniform.
There was the nan who declared,
in answer to a question as to why he
thought he should be exempted, that
no other man in the world except
himself could live with his wife. To
this a member of the draft board re-
piled: IF I should tell her on what
grounds you are asking exemption,
I'll bet you couldn't either"
Some queer exhibits reached the
draft boards to back up claims for
dependency. One mar produced a

claim although married last Septem-

tee to his QUESTIONABLE. Love letters
were offered TO show intention to
marry before the draft law menaced
and a Wichita paper with news of ar
announcement party and pictures of
the bride and bridegroom-to-be was
sent to a draft board. To prove that

There is no special danger at this
time of year from exposure, as was
formerly thought" stated II. f. Con-
Tiff. The way to avoid pneumonia
is to keep the body in such good
working order that the pneumonia
germ won't get you. q
Pneumonia attacks people who
are debilitated from other cause.
Anyone whose power of resistance is
lowered is a likely subject for it.
The diseases such as grip, measles,

That accounts for more cases now

It's only when We happen to be in
such a state that we cannot resist
that it lodges and m%ultiplies and

is a regular little T. r. for business.

SON."
Don't be SO afraid of wasting coal
that you neglect proper ventilation,
DIR. Coniff warned. No matter if the
coal pile is low, windows must be
opened, especially at night, to allow
plenty of fresh air in the living and
sleeping rooms.
In general, the best treatment for
pneumonia is care for the proper
functioning of the body, and care to
refrain from all excuses.
The serum for curing the disease
is made by injecting horses with
pneumonia germs. The horses man
ufacture in their blood a specific cur
alive substance-called anti-bodies-l
which kill germs of the same type.
