After assuring the farmers that all
wheat will moved and full price Sc
cured by every grower the Nevada
Food Administration has issued the
following statement covering wet,
mouldy wheat spoiled by the Septem-
Der rains:
Nevada farmers whose wheat, eth
er In stack, field or sacks, was wet
In the rains of last month and con-
sequently is heating, moulding or
spoiled, should carefully separate the
spoiled from the dry grain, place the
wet wheat where it may secure plen-
ty of air and sunlight, and submit
samples Of both good and spoiled
grain either to the mill nearest them
or to the Food Administrator. No
wheat fit for human consumption may
be sold for feeding purposes but j.
cisions will be given in all cases at
tine earliest possible moment so that
no wheat will be wasted that can be
milled or fed"

EVERY BOND A
KAISER KILLER

The battle front in Europe is not
the only American front. There is a
home front, and our people at home
should be as patriotic as our men In
Uniform in foreign lands.
Every American soldier who has
lfellen In France, every American
sailor who has died for his country's
cause has GIVEN his life for his
people. Surely we, their people, can
LEND our money 20 our Nation, their
country.
The Fourth Liberty Loan is the
nghting loan. Its great success will
bring comfort and announcement
and deep sense of pride to our Army
and our Navy, and to our allies: II
Will bring encouragement to our ene-
mics. Its success means victory.
Prussian defeat.
Douglas county has done we'll and
has raised about 100000 of the $685.
600 quota. Our boys are doing well
In France and have about landed the
hnal punch to Kiser Bills dream of
word dominion. While they are de-
livering that final Knockout, let the
good people give the Liberty Loan
nnal boost, and send it over the top.
YOUR help is needed; can you refuse?
