That the executives of the Marlin Rockwell Corporation of New Haven,' which has branch in this city, are at present devoting their energies to the contemplated production of com- modities which will be in demand after the war and that when the war does stop tho entire organization and operations CT the factories will be strongly fortified in a new field which will, in all probability, be 5he manu- lecture of high grade automobile &C., .cessories, are the declarations of A. F. Rockwell, president of the big munitions concern. in a report to the stockholders on Saturday.
 It was also known to the stockhoid- CTS that the executive board discussed the advisability of paying dividend on the. outstanding common stock Of the company, and it was decided that a dividend of $6 per year per share be paid out of the surplus profits of the company, at the rate Of $l per month starting Novebred Ii.
 In his report, President Rockwell stated that the nature of the errand upon which the company was origin ally launched has forced an expansion in fixed assets far beyond any pre- vious expectations, but that the execu- tives of the company plan to limit further cxpatision in that direction to the greatest extent possible and to keep the company in increasingly liquid condition.
 The New Haven munitions company according to the report, has approx
 imately about $35,000,00G worth of contracts duo for delivery to the gov ernment by July, 1919y and that after delivery ais completed, there will be about S35,29S square feet of floor space, a large amount of equipment and some thousands of trained em- ployes, which will be prepared to be utilized in the production of some au- toniobile accessories, as we'll as other lines now under development an6 consideration.
 Following is the report to the stockholders in part;

THIRD LIBERTY LOAN IN APRIL.
Hon. Patrick Sullivan of Casper is Or
ganizing the Drive Through
out Wyoming.

The campaign for the third Liberty
Loan VIII be opened on the sixth of
April, the anniversary of the declara-
ton of a state of war between the
United States and Germany.
The amount, terms, and conditions
of the loan are dependent upon further
legislation and will be announced as
soon as congress has granted the nee
essary powers.
Secretary McAdoo chose the 9th of
April as the day to open the campaign
as the most fitting date to call for a
patriotic response to the summons to
duty of every American, to ask from
the people at home the same fervent
patriotism that acthates our gallant
sons on the battlefields of France and
on the waters of the Atlantic.
The federal reserve bank of Kansas
City is cooperating with Chairman
Patrick Sullivan of Casper in the or
ganization of Wyoming for the third
Liberty Loan campaign. While the
amount, rate of interest, etc, have not
as yet been made public, it is antici-
pated that this will be the largest loan
yet issued. If the rate of interest is
higher, many of the bonds of the Sec
ond issue will of course be converted
into the third.
The banks and all financial institu-
tons will act as ~sub-agencies for the
sale of the bonds.

WYOMING STOCK GROWERS.
Annual Meeting of State Association
Will Be Held at Kemmerer OH
April 11th and 18th, 1918.

President Robert ID. Carey of the
Wyoming Stock Growers Association
announces that the annual meeting of
that body for 1918 will be held at KEN
merer on April IL and II, and invites
all stockmen of the state to attend.
An effort is being made to get one
or more special coaches from Cheyenne
for the benefit of those going from the
southeastern counties and those from
the north who will come by way of
Cheyenne, and anyone desiring reserva-
lions should communicate with Mr..
Carey at once.
Announcement is made that a pro-
gram Of more than ordinary interest to
stockmen is being arranged and an ex-
ceptionally large attendance is ex-
pected. No special rates have yet been
announced, although it is expected the
customary reductions will be obtained.
Some difficulty is being encountered
along this line, however, on account of
the government control, which necessi-
tates the unwinding of many large reels
of red tape in the effort to reach the
powers that be.

TENTH ANNUAL RODEO.
oWyoming Herd Gathering at Los
Angeles Included Many People
From the Platte Valley.

The following ccoun OF the 1918
.podeo Of the Wyoming Herd" at Los
Angeles is sent to The Sun by n Of
,ho former residents of this community
yho attended. The ROdeo is an annual
offoir. occurring on the first Saturday
in March of each year at n of the
marks in Los Angeles. 1t Is simply an
opop-lir convention of all Wyomingites
iphabiting the west coast country, and
fine day is devoted to the simple pleas
nros of renewing old acquaintances and
having a general good time in picnic
STYLE. our correspondent says:
The tenth annual "Rodeo of the Wy
oming Herd in Southern California
was held at Sycamore Grove in Los
Angeles on Saturday, March 2, and
there was a great roundup of Wyoming
people. many of whom are spending the
winter here and many others who have
transferred their homes to this state.
There was no set program, and after
greeting old friends and new, they gath
cred in groups and parties for lunch,
coffee being served by the association.
After lunch came the election of Of
ficcrs for the ensuing year, resulting
in the reelection of W. o. Owen of Lar
annie as president; Mrs. Hawkins,
vice president Min Oliver of Sheridan,
secretary. Mrs. Schenk, a former pres
ident, made a brief and witty speech,
after which J.. b. Hassett, formerly of
Saratoga, was called upon, and his
talk on "Old Timers was the principal
event of the gathering and much ap-
preciatcd.
When the real old-timers, of the days
before 1870, were asked to come for
ward, Henry r. Jones, also from Sara
toga, was easily the Oldest in point of
residence, having come to Denver in
1860 and to the Laramie Plains early
in 1866. before there was ever a house
where Cheyenne now stands. On the
Laramie Plains, in 1866, he met his
late partner, Frank o. Williams, and
they were together until the death of
the latter two years ago-a business
association of but two months less than
80 years.

LESS MEATLESS MEALS
Increased Meat Production Has Al
lowed Some Reimbursement of the
Nations Food Program.

Temporary suspension of the meat
less meal and of the special ~restric-
lions against the use of pork on Sat
urday was announced by the food ad-
ministration last week, as a readjust-
ment of its food conservation program.
Increased meat production and the ne
ccssity for still greater saving in
wheat, it was declared, make this
change advisable.
The suspension is made effective for
an indefinite period, and it probably
will last for three months or longer.
Since all restrictions on consump-
ton of mutton and lamb had been lift
ed previously, the food administration
now asks the public for the time being
to deny itself in meats only beef and
pork on n day a week.
Increased meat consumption, food
administration officials believe, will of
itself curtail the use of wheat, and for
the present there is no intention to add
to the restrictions already in force in
that line.

account of the inclement weather the
financial end was hardly up to expecta-

the valley late Friday afternoon kept
many people away, but in spite of the
elements SO numbers were sold, and
the hall was very comfortably filled.
Fine music was furnished by an or
chestra from Laramie, and the supper
served by the Rebekahs was an enjoy
able feature. Altogether, the affair
was a most enjoyable one from every

Sales Basis for WhOle-wheat and Ora
ham F1Ours.

To help conserve the supply of wheat
flour so that more can be sent to the
Allies, the food administration has ask
ed 100000 dealers in food commodities
to pledge themselves to sell no flour
except where the purchaser buys an
equal weight of one Or more of the
authorized flour substitutes.
The only exception is in the case of
whole-wheat and graham flours which
may be sold on n basis of five pounds
OF flour to three pounds Of substitutes.
This exception is made for the reason
mat about 80 per cen more of the
wheat berry is used in the manufac-
ture OF whole-wheat and graham flours
'hah in the manufacture of standard
wheat flour.
