The Tuscarora.NeVada Mines com
pany property was bought at a re
ceiver's sale yesterday by Judge
George F. Talbot for E. X. Stallo and
Judge lockwood. of New York. The
amount bid was a little over twenty
six thousand dollars, the amount OF
the receivers certificates that were
formerly held by Roy PrimeauN. This
property has been tied up in litiga-
ton for many years and it has been
hard to do anything with 1t as there
were a number of claims against IT.
The sale clears the title and II Is
now probable that the property will
be opened up again. The power line
alone cost in the neighborhOod OF
one hundred and fifty thousand dol

that newspaper men are not Away

WHEATLESS DAYS MUST
Be STRICTLY OBSERVED
Order Issued Forbidding Wheat
on Mondays and Wednesday.
Sugar Bowls Must Go.

Glasgow, Mont, May 3.-Mondays
days in the full sense of the word.
Federal Food Administrator Atkin-
son. on April 20, issued an order for
bidding the use of wheat products
in any form on Monday. and Wednes-
day of each week and for the noon
meal of each day.
On April 19 an order was sent out
to all hotels and restaurants in Mon
tana that sugar bowls were to be re-
moved from the tables and that sugar
service should be made individual.
The food administrator for Montana
further defines the order by stating
that two Jumps or one and one-half
teaspoons shall be considered a suffi-
cient individual sugar allowance for
tea or coffee.
An order has been issued by the
administrator that all wheat in Mon
tana not being actually held for seed
ing purposes, must be sold on the
market on or before May Is. The i'm
nding shortage Of wheat -four dur
ing the next few months is the cause
of the order. Thousands of bushels
of wheat are being held on the farms
in the hope that the price will be fixed
even higher than it is. With this
hope of a higher price killed, the
state administration has ordered this
surplus wheat marketed and allows
until May Is, so that the needs of
spring seeding will have been ascer-
tained. Wheat held on the farm after
that date will be subject to action of
the administrator.
People of Montana have reached the
million pound mark in their reports
on surplus wheat flour held in the
food situation abroad, Montana could
ship number Of carloads of wheat
-four to the soldiers without taking
away the home supply in sight for
the next thirty days.

SANITARY SENSE.

This is the first of series of short
articles by the county health officer,
designed to help all citizens who wish
to cooperate with him in lettering
health and sanitary conditions
throughout the county, Editor.
l. The Health Officer-What he is,
and why.
The state board of health, appoint
ed by the governor, consists of five
prominent physicians, the governor
I'd the attorney general, the functions
If the board in general being to over
see the health and sanitation of the
state. This includes the examination
of physicians and dentists for license
20 practice in the state; the recording
and classification Of births and deaths;
the quarantine Of infectious and con-
'agious diseases; and the enforcement
of the laws of sanitation.
Manifestly, it would be physically
impossible for the state board per-
sonally to oversee these conditions in
every portion of the state all the
time. Hence a health officer is ap-
nointed in each county to represent
the state board in that county and to
see to the enforcement of the health
and sanitary laws in his particular
community.
Any officer is your friend so long
rs you do not 60 contrary to the laws
sworn to enforce; and while the
health officer is in reality the "san-
itary policemen" he is just as ready
to help you right a wrong sanitary
condition whenever such is reported
to him as he is to invoke the stringent
sanitary laws of the state in punish.
ing you if you violate them.
This is my appeal, therefore, to all
citizens of the county, in cities, towns,
villages or country, to cooperate in
every possible way with this office for
the Improvement of sanitary condi.
tions, for the stamping out of contag-
ious diseases and for the marked
health improvement of the county. We
can and we should be q model of
health and sanitary conditions for the
whole state and we can attain this en-
viable position with your cooperation
THE HEALTH OFFICER.

GREAT Possibilities
IN HONEY PRODUCTION
Experts Says Valley County is
Excellent Field for Honey
Industry.

Hundreds of thousands of pounds
iof honey are allowed to go to waste
each year in this country because
there are no bees to gather the nectar
from the flowers. The United States
department of agriculture is making
great efforts to increase food produc-
tion and among these is the work to
increase the bee keeping industry and
improve the methods of caring for the
busy honey bee.
Ward H. Foster investigating the
honey possibilities of Montana for
the college of agriculture spent
Thursday in Glasgow in conference
with Mr.. Stebbins, the county agri-
cultural agent and Mr.. Foster was
quite impressed with the possibility of
developing this industry in Valley
county. Being practical bee keeper
from Colorado where carloads of the
finest honey are produced each year
from sweet clover and alfalfa, he be-
lieves that very profitable business
should lie within reach of Valley coun
ty enterprise in locations where these
plants grow in profusion.
Returns in bee-keeping compare
very favorably with those in any
branch of agricultural pursuit and
when bees are given competent and
business like attention when that at
tention is needed bees do not require
the constant care necessary with 9TH
err agricultural pursuits.
The severe winters here are unfav-
orable to bees but by adequate protec-
tion this difficulty should be subject
to control. The office Of bee investi-
cations of the United States burea ]
of entomology has carried out very
'areful experiments in winteriug of
bees and any one contempla ting the
keeping of bees here should make use
of the information published by that
office. Questions regarding the care
of bees may be addressed to Bureau
of Entomology Bee Culture, Washing
ton, D. C.
The part of the country that appeal
ed to Mr.. Foster as almost ideal for
honey production was along the Mis-
souri, and Milk river where alfalfa
and sweet clover thrivss so well, and
he willows and cotton wood blossoms
would start the bees out early in the
spring and get them in condition for
their hard seasons work on the swe ct
clover and alfalfa.
Under normal conditions a swarm
of bees will produce about 50-75
pounds of honey. We would like very
much to see some one get interested
in this project and develope the honey
industry that belongs to Valley coun-

RED CROSS WAR FUND
DRIVE May 20 TO 27
Executive Committee Appointed

J. w. Wedum of the Lewis Wedum
company has been appointed county
chairman for the second Red Cross
war fund drive which will open on
Monday, May 20, and continue through
that week.
Mr.. Wedum has appointed S. C.
Small, H. j. Alden and Fred Trus-
colt as an executive committee to
work with him on the drive. He ex-
poets to have all of his committees for
the outlying towns appointed this
week and it goes without saying, that
Valley county will 60 cover the top
in the coming Red Cross drive as she
as always done in past drives.
Very little information on the COM
ing drive has been received from head
quarters as yet. Montana has been
appcrtioned S3O0,000.00 as it's quota
Of the $1O,OOO,O0O national campaign.
Figures on the quota for Valley coun-
