ORDER BINDER TWINE EARLY
Food Administration Urges Farmers
Not to Delay Purchases.

COLUMBIA, Mo-, May 22.-It was
hoped by the Food Administration
that retail dealers would be able to
handle binding twine on a margin of
1 1-2 cents pound this season, but
further investigation indicates that
cuch margin is too small in view
Of the risk assumed.
Announcement was made recently
by the Food Administration that a
differential or margin of 2 cents a
pound cash, or its equivalent, and 21A
cents on time, with freight added
from the factory, above the manufac-
iturer's price of % cents pound,
will not be considered unreasonable by
it. The necessity of early shipments
increase in financial responsibility of
the dealer and increased cost of do
ing business are some of the reasons
given for modifying the pre-war mar
gins to this extent.
Farmers are earnestly urged to
place their orders for probable re-
qui-ements for binder twine as soon
as possible by early shipment for an
adequate supply of twine to meet the
harvest requirements. Shipping condi-
tions are such that more time must be
allowed from factory to local distrib-
uting points to avoid danger Of short
ege in supply.

Mexico Responds Literally

A monthly income of $222.70 was
subscribed by the citizens of Mexico
for the local Red Cross women's sew
ling rooms in the campaign last week.
This money will be used to purchase
material with which to make surgical
dressings and other Red Cross equip
ment necessary for our army abroad.
The sewing rooms, located in the sec
ond story of the city hall, are filled
with busy volunteer workers every
day. They have been handicapped by
lack of funds during the last year, but
the present assured income will mate
rally eliminate this factor from their
work.
Mexico is to be complimented on her
liberal response to this most CON-
mendable war activity.

Do ONE THING MORE that we may
wind up the campaign May 27 in a
blaze of glory for the Southwestern
Division This:
Solicit and obtain one subscrip-
ton other than your own sub

If each member of the South
western Division will do this, this
division should lead all others
when the final results of the
campaign shall have been made
known. The Southwestern Divi-
sion led in the Christmas Mem

your fine devotion to the cause.
Washington Headquarters expect
us to do even better this time.
We can and we will, if you will
get one subscriber to the War

We cannot afford to fail. As your
| leader | urge you to carry out this
plan without delay. Do not wait until
Monday to get your subscriber. Do
it TODAY; do it NOW. 1t will be cas-
Ter now than it will be tomorrow or
Monday. Do not say to yourself that
this is work for your neighbor who is

some one in another locality or town
or city. This is your work-it is the
work of every member of the Red
Cross in this Division. And am rely.
ing upon you. know YOU will not

Special to Evening Ledger.
LONDON, May 22.-Information,
from authoritative sources, has been
received here that the Germans intend
to abandon Zeebrugge and 0stend as
U-boat bases. This is the result of
the recent naval raids on the part of
the British fleet to block the channels
of the harbor and canals and immobil-
ize the German war vessels in the
harbors. The announcement of the
abandoning of these two ports shows
plainly the success Of the British.
Dispatches from the British front
announce the success of the English
troops in raids on the Germans in
Flanders. The continued activity all
along the line, it is thought, is having
much to do with the delay in renew
ing the German drive. The Germans
apparetly are at loss just from
what sector to withdraw troops for
the purpose of strengthening their
forces in Picardy and Flanders for
the continuation of their frustrated
efforts to reach the channel ports. In
the meantime the English and French
troops in these sectors are being en-
couraged and their confidence
strengthened by the arrival of Ameri-
can soldiers in large numbers as re-
Inducements to be used when reserves
are required.

Small Supply Of Pledge Cards Has
Caused Halt in Mexioo's Red
Cross Drive
RURAL DISTRICTS LIBERAL
One District Has Passed QuOta-An-
other Shows Great Record-Con-
tributiOns Are Cash.

W. Clyde Johnson, county school
superintendent. reports that an in
sufficient supply of the pledge cards
has caused a delay in the Second Red
Cross Drive in Mexico. The number
ordered at first was far too few to
supply Mexico and Audrain county,
consequently the drive is practically
at a standstill until additional cards,
which have been ordered, arrive.
Reports received by Mr.. johnson
from the rural districts about this
city show that the people are giving
literally. Sneed District, with Miss
Ruth Cook as captain, reports each
member of all families visited so far
have contributed more than one dol
lar. Their report was sS7. Burnham
District, with Mrs. ]. G. Waggener as
captain reports nineteen people have
contributed $3.50, Benton City
with ]. ]. F. Johnson as captain, has
reported $S15 which is more than
their quota.
The rural contributions are cash
while those of Mexico are pledged.
Many prominent men and good
speakers of Mexico are contributing
their services to go to the rural dis
tricts and make short addresses at
meetings held there in the interest Of
the Red Cross drive. Contributions
are collected after the talks and good
results are being obtained. E. A.
Shannon spoke at meeting at Nay
lor Tuesday and reports that $36 was
contributed by 27 present. Father

MEN HERE JUNE s
Includes Al ThOse in Audrain Who
Have Become 2l Since Last June.
AT the COURT HOUSE
kegistrants, With Few Exeeptions
Will BE Put at Bottom Of
Class 1.

Approximately $50 Audrain eoun-
ty young men, who have reached the
age Of 2l since June 5 last, will have
to register in the draft on June 5 of
this year, between a, m. and p. m.
as a result Of President Wilson's af-
fixing his signature TO the bill au-
thorizing the registration, Tuesday.
Instructions issued by ]. H. Nc
Cord, head Of the selective service de-
partment for Missouri, says in part,
Every person of the designated age
with certain exceptions to be defined
in the Presidents proclamation and
regulations) will be required to regis
ter under the supervision of the local
board having jurisdiction of the area
in which he permanently resides" The
clause with certain exceptions" prob
ably means medical and theological
students, with other possible addi-
tions.
Not as Big Job as Last June
So, on June 5, every young man
in the county, who has become of age
since last June, will report for regis
tration at the Courthouse. The entire
registration will be completed in one
day and will not be near the stupend-
Gus job that it was last year, partly
because the number of registrants,
will be less and partly because the
local boards have been established
since the last registration and there
will be no call for the organization of
special registration machinery. The
members of the board will be regis
trars.
QuestiOnnaires 10 Days Later.
Ten days after the registration,
questionnaires will be mailed to all of
the registrants They will be allowed
period of seven days in which to re-
turn them filled out, during which
time the legal advisory board will be
in the Court House to aid in filling out
the blanks.
Sick by Proxy.
Those who are kept away from the
registration place by sickness will be
registered by persons deputized to
make it. Felons will be registered by
the wardens of the penitentiary and
persons awaiting trial by the jailors.
The men thus registered will, ac-
cording to present information, be
placed at the bottom of the list Of
Glass l names, unless special reas.
ons, explained in the questionnairC
and sustained by the board, puts then
in deferred or special classes.
