FOOD ADMINISTRATION WORKS
TO STOP CROWDING OF COOPS

Tne poultry and egg section of the
Food Administration calls attention
to frequent complaints which have
beer made regarding the large loss
of poultry in transit as result of
OvercrOwding the cOops. Another
common source of loss is through the
injury of birds that stick their heads
through the tops of the coOps when
other coops are being placed over
them. ~
Names and addresses of shippers
guilty of the wasteful practices of
overcrowding, or using coops that
permit injury to the birds, should be
reported to the Food Administration.
The so-called standard coop, which
is thirty inches by forty-eight inches,
should carry no more than eighty to
Ieighty-fve pounds of mature poul-
try and a smaller quantity of spring
fchickens.
that the birds heads cannot pro-
trude where they will be in any dan
ger of injury. The change in the
coop will depend upon the type of
construction.
Shippers Of poultry and exchang-
es are being notified that any ac-
tion tending to eliminate these caus-
es of loss of live poultry is much de-
sired, and you are urged to cooper
ate with them in such action as far
as possible.

COUNTY AND STATE TAX LEVY
TO REMAIN AT PRESEE + NJ AK

The county and state tax levy for
Whatcom county will be practically
the same this year as it was last
year, the county commissioners have
announced.
There may be slight increase in
the levy in order to get fund for
the Nooksack river. The commits
sioners expect to keep the river clear
for navigation as much as possible
and have money on hand to clear out
jams and protect property along the
river from flooding. The law pro-
vides that 1-mill tax may be levied
for this purpose.
In spite of improvements and high
er cost of material and labor the levy
was lower in 1918 than it was in
The levies for the past four
years for the county have been as
follows: s383,38S in 1915; $2S7,271
in 1916; $264,397 in 1917; $685.
10 in 1918. The apparent increase
the last year was caused by the rails
ing of 100000 for concrete roads.
During these same four years the
county debt has decreased as fol-
lows: $3S3,6S5 in 1915; $2O9,110
in 1915; $11S,604 in 1917; $S0-
600 in 1918. The last figure was
given for January /, and since that
time $4,000 has been paid on the
debt.
The total general state and county
levies for the past four years has
been $1,824,714. In that time the
townships have raised $372,sO4 in
levies and by special means have
raised $34,955 for concrete roads,
making a total of $2,232.474.
The commissioners say that only
the most necessary and urgent con-
struction work will be done this
coming year. Although the good
prices for crops make it easier for
the people to stand the expense than
ever before, it was stated, the difficult
ty of securing labor makes big i'm
provements out of the question.
There has been an increase of ov-
er 100000 in the debt of the county
schools in the past four years, ac-
cord;ng to the figures of the commits
sioners. In 1915 the debt was 1854
527; $441,541 in 1916; $568.621 in
1918. These figures dc not include
the school revenue from fines, which
has amounted to an average of about
$25, 900 year. The state and coun-
ty school levy together last year
reached $494,903, which is the high
est 1t has been.

ion has a score of new interesting

er. The Smith herd of Holsteins will

Guernsey owners are considering
bringing their stock in. The Fail
Board invites anyone who desires

to do so. although no premiums will

department will have an abundance
of entries, and an interesting dis

EXCHANGE YOUR OLD JEWELRY
FOR NEW WAR SAVINGS STAMPS

Another important movement in
the War Savings Campaign has been
the establishment in Seattle OF War
Savings Metal Exchange, which has
taken quarters at Fourth and Pine
streets. The Metal Exchange will re-
ceive your old gold, silver and plat
mum. have it assayed by the Govern
ment Assay Office, and pay for it's
value in War Savings and Thrift
Stamps. The people all over the
state are invited to send precious
metals to this Office. An expert
enced assayer will be on hand during
business hours to determine values
so that it will not be necessary to
wait until the Government assays
are completed to get your stamps.
This office is patterned after the
New York Office and is being man
aged under the direction of State Di-
rector Kelleher. Like the New York
office, the immediate management Is
in charge of we'll known women, the
Seattle office being under the aus
pices of Mrs. Alexander F. MeEwan,
Chairman of Committee, and the fol-
lowing COMMITTEES: Mrs. Henry Suz-
zallo. Mrs. John Eddy. Mrs. Kello-
her, Mrs. Treat, Mrs. Paul Henry,
and Mrs. l.. ID. Stedman.
Everybody has more or less gold
or silver trinkets which are of no
