NEW SUGAR RULING
IN EFFECT AUGUST
Cut of 33 1-3 Per Cent in Amount
Allowed on That Date

A new sugar ruling will go into eff
feet August 1st, when the allowance
of 3 pounds per month per person
will be cut to 2 pounds. There will
be an extra allowance for canning
purposes, but the administration asks
that as little be used as possible at
this time.
1t seems that the supply is not hold
ing up and there is possibility of a
genuine shortage unless precautions
are taken to conserve the supply.
There should be no kick on this
ruling. 1t is little thing to do to
get along with a small supply if one
will try. Fairly good cakes can be
made Of sirup, and ice water will take
the place of ice tea. In fact it will
be hard for you to remember after
a week whether it was ice tea or ice
water you had for the meal.
The grand exhibition put on by
the American soldiers on the west
front should put quietus on the
kicks on the rulings of the food de-
partment. When those boys are rush

Boche clear off the field it certainly
looks like we could forego the use of

a half interest in the Overland Gar
age of Chas. Molter, and taken the
position as manager. Mr.. Molter
will devote most of his time to the
broom corn business and let Dave run

about right.

WESTERN KANSAS FARMERS
WILLGET GOVERNMENT AID
Congressman Shouse Wins in Effort
to Finance Seed Wheat.

Through the efforts of Congress
man Jouett Shouse Of the Seventh
District, the farmers will be able to
get federal money with which to buy
seed wheat.
President Wilson has agreed to
supply five million dollars from his
contingent fund for this purpose, to
be loaned in amounts up to $500.
Details of the plan have not yet
been made public but it is thought
that these will appear in the papers
tomorrow.
This much is known, that the fund
will be handled by the Agricultural
Department and the Federal Land
Banks.
The news will be pleasing to the
farmers in the territory where crops
have been short the past two or three
years, and will assist materially in
assuring large acreage Of whet next
year.
The announcement says that the
plans for distribution are to be made
as simple as possible that the distri-
button may begin at the earliest pos
sible moment.

T. L. Gray Erecting
Brick on Kansas Ave.
Will Occupy the Lots just North Of
the Electric Light
Office.

T. L. Gray, who a shart time ago
bought the lot north of the Wolley
building occupied by the Liberal
Light, Ice & Power Co., on North
Kansas Avenue, has the material on
the ground for the erection of a
brick business building.
The old frame structures which
were damaged by fire are being torn
out and work will begin on the new
structure as soon as they are remov-
ed.
The building will be one story high
24x100 feet.
Mr.. Gray says he has several ap-
plicants for the building, but as yet
is not prepared to say what line of
business will go in.
This is one of the good locations of
the city and the erection of the brick
will add to the appearance Of the
street.
Gradually the old frames are 60
ing out and it is not going to be a
great while until Kansas avenue will
be solid string of bricks.

GENTZLER FAMILY RAISES
MUCH WHEAT THIS YEAR
J. H. Gentzler and Four Sons Raise
Close to 5000 Bushels.

Despite the fact that not a great
while before the harvest it was
thought there would be no wheat
raised here this year, the crops in
many localities was very good.
Business has been picking up on
the Gentzler farm north of Liberal
since harvest, and when the smoke
clears away it is found that ]. H
Gentzler and his sons, Henry, George
Luther, j. A., have threshed almost
5000 bushels. For this they received
from $2.05 to $2.08, the total re-
ceipts being over $4,000.
In all they cut 670 acres, and
while the yield was not as heavy as
in former years, they made goot
money from the crop.

Chautauqua Closed
Wednesday Night
Programs Pleased the People and At
tendance Exceeded
Expectations.

The Liberal Chautauqua for 1918
is thing of the past, but one thing
was demonstrated-that the people
want the Chautauqua.
The entertainments were of high
order and we have yet to hear any
serious kick on the quality. While
there was little boosting done the
Chautauqua paid expenses and left
a little over for the Red Cross which
was to get the net profits of the en-
tertainment.
1t was considered doubtful whether
or not the Chautauqua would prove
paying proposition this year, and it
was not until almost the last few days
that interest began to develop. How
ever, everyone was so busy that
booster trip was out of the question
and with the war activities that are
ever with us, there was little time to
do much work.
But the crowds came just the same.
The Chautauqua seems to have be-
come permanent institution here
and it will not take the hard work of
former years to get the people inta-
ested. The committee was so pleased
with the company and the evident de-
sire of the people for the Chautauqua
that they signed a contract for an
other year.
While the Chautauqua this year
did not cost as much as last season it
seems to be the general opinion that
it could not have been much better,
and as the tickets were put out at
low price the public were quick to
take hold.

WILLARD BATTERY STATION
HAD A FIRE LAST FRIDAY
A Gasoline Blow Torch Caused a Dam
gerous Blaze in Workshop.

Manager C. A. Henderson of the
local Willard Service Station had a
narrow escape last Friday when a
blow torch he was filling caught fire.
He was in the act of filling the torch
when it burst into flames, throwing
burning gasoline over the room. He
sustained some burns on his clothing,
but these were extinguished with the
Pyrene extinguishers, as was the
blaze in the room.
The principal damage done was to
some tools laying on the work table
and to the paper on the walls. There
was no insurance. The fire depart
ment was called but the extinguish-
ers had done their work, before the
truck arrived.
