eggs. The total loss Of eggs repre-
sented by the customary habit Of sell
ling hens between the first Of Febru-
ary and the first of May amounts TO
about 100, 100000 eggs. The value Of
these eggs Is about 80 per cent Of
what the hen is actually worth, 30
this program does not entail loss to
the farmer, but an actual gain.
To Prevent Waste
Undoubtedly this program will
create many protests from people who
state that for every pound Of poultry
not consumed corresponding pound
Of beef or other meats will be used.
The Food Administration feels, how
ever, that the killing Of hens just be-
fore and during the heavy spring lay
is q wasteful practice, just as waste
full as the killing Of fresh milk cows
for beef, and that by enforcing this
program prices will be kept within
reason, which could not otherwist be
done.

Governor Capper, the best governor
Kansas has had for an age, has re-
turned from his second trip to Camp
Doniphan. 1t was largely due to the
efforts of Gov. Cappcr that the un-
sanitary hospital conditions at that
cantonment were remedied, and he
is the only governor of the five or six
interested states who has taken
enough interest in the soldiers to visit
heir camp.

ROSCOE w. BROUGHTON
For County Clerk

At the coming Primary we are to
nominate a candidate for County
Clerk, a most important Office. In
this time of war when the attention
of the public is fixed mainly upon the
great events in Europe, the voters of
the county are not interested III the
personal ambition of any cadidate. 1t
is no time for a long, drawn-out cam
paign. The occasion calls for cap
able, competent official who can carry
on the public business in the most
efficient way. The business transacted
in the County Clerks Office has
doubled during the past two years.
1t is technical work and requires a
trained Office man. Banks, corpora
tions and business houses choose
their men for efficiency, service and
ability. Roscoe w. Broughton, can
didate for County Clerk measures up
in every way to the high standard re-
quired and should receive the nomina-
ton.

The success with which the 10th
Annual Chautauqua has met thus far
during the week, has demonstrated
beyond the question of a doubt that
the Chautauqua is one of the perman-
ent fixtures and valuable assets of
Paw Paw. The people of this COM
munity appreciate the value of such
an institution and give it their en-
thusiastic support. They support it
for two reasons: First, for the en-
joyment and personal benefit each in
dividual patron derives: Second, be-
cause the community has a realiza-
ton of the moral uplift, the literary
advantages, and the facilities it pro-
vides for the general improvement
and education of the coming genera
ton. For ten years now the Mid
land Circuit has provided the pro-
gram. 1t seems that each is just a
little better than the preceding one
and it is safe to say that so long as
Paw Paw continues to enjoy and
benefit from a Chautauqua, The Mid
land Circuit will continue to come
here. Here's to Mr.. Holiday, the
Midland Chautauqua, and the whole
outfit.

three names of men in his section
