WAR BILLS FOR AUGUST
DOUBLE OF MONTH 1917

Washington, Sept. 3.-Waf bills
this month will approximate $1,621,-
nearly twice the amount
$87O, 100000, expended during August
a year ago.
Thus the war toll is now running
about $52,00O,OOO day, or over
100000 an hour-a slight increase
over July.
August figures bearing the total to
America of the war to date to over
SIS, 100000 and the cost since Janu-
airy l this year to over S1O,500,O 00,-
COO.
Ii August's approximation proves
finally accurate, this will be the most
expensive war month since America
got into the struggle, but the next
largest being June, when $1,512,O0O,-
900 was poured into the war NAV
And the same figures show that the
cost today is just double that OF q
year ago.

FLAXVILLE PEOPLE HURT
WHEN FORD CAR UPSETS

Last Sunday evening Mr.. and Mrs.
Art Stefne and family were out
riding in Ford car and when about
seven miles south of town their car
upset while running a fair rate of
speed. Mrs. Stefne suffered brok-
en- arm, the other parties receiving
only minor bruises. It was indeed
remarkable that more serious injuries
were not received by the occupants
of the car.
Two auto loads of Flaxville people
who had been out shocking grain,
were returning home just behind Mr.
Stefne's car and at once gave what
ever assistance they could. Mr.. Spar
ling brought the family to town in his
car.
The Ford was up-righted and run
into town, but little the worse for the
accident.

COLLECTING TAXES OF
THE UNITED STATES

In the execution of the policy OF
paying as large proportion of the
expenses of the war by taxation as
possible the Treasury is making ev-
ery effort to collect all Federal taxes
due to the United States.
The department has evidence
against many who have sought to
evade taxes. Some of these tax
evaders are American citizens resid-
ing or sojourning in Canada. A corp;
i specially trained revenue agents
will be sent to the Canadian com
munities where many of these tax
evaders reside to obtain tax returns
from them.

LOCAL NIMRODS URGED TO
GET HUNTING LICENSE NOW

Plentywood hunters are urged to
get their licenses at once, because
the season opens Sunday, September
Is. Game Warden Hudson said
Wednesday that he had only issued
twenty licenses to date, which is a
very small number considering the
large number of local nimrods.
In previous years it has been the
custom of Sheridan county hunters
to postpone getting a license until
the day before the season opens. That
procedure is unnecessary since the
applicants have plenty of time now,
to secure their license in their re-
spective districts.

DO NOT KILL YOUNG POUL-
TRY; HELP SAVE MEAT SUPPLY

To the Citizens of Sheridan County:
The following letter, sent out by
the poultry and egg section of the
Food Administration at Washington
has reached us from the State Food
Administration Office at Bozeman
and we desire to call your attention
to it and urge your cooperation in
it. AS one of the many ways you
may help in the conservation of food
in this time of need.
"The practice of slaughtering So
called broiler turkeys weighing two
to four pounds each (which is ap-
proximately 25 per cent of the weight
of the matured birds) we consider
wasteful and we are appealing to the
hotels, clubs and restaurants, where
they are mostly consumed, to discon-
tinue to serve them.
We desire dealers to refrain from
purchasing these immature birds
and also that they encourage pro-
ducers to allow them to mature
thereby increasing our meat supply
Your cooperation in informing al
interested parties will be appreci-
ated."
Let the Birds Grow to Good Size
Every farmer knows how little he
has to feed his poultry in comparison
to other stock. 1t is evident that
they live on what otherwise would b.
entirely lost. So, let them grow a.
much as possible.
"Drive Slow and Let the Little Tur
keys Get Out of the Way"
You know, how the little turkey:
and chickens will gather in the roat
and when you come along with /;
car, the little creatures don't know
that if they would stay in the mid
die of the road that Ford would G,
over them without hurting them, blu
they will get in the front of TIN
wheels. 1t may be, that you hav,
only killed one turkey since you ha'
your car. That turkey would grow
up and dress from to Is pounds
That is not much, but there are up
wards of 1000 autos in Sheridan
County, and if each of them woul
run over turkey, see how easily W
would lose from to Is tons of meat
during the season. "Drive slow an
let the little turkey get out of tn
way"
We hope the citizens of Sherida
County will take this suggestion i
the spirit of patriotism, because ev
cry precaution taken, helps the Gov
eminent to conserve the food SUP
ply, save food for our armies and GU
allies and help the boys WIN tn
great war.
Yours very truly,
E. w. SAVAGE,
Sheridan County Food Administrato
