AXLING AND RILEY TO
MAKE STICKER FIGHT
Adverse Ruling OF Court Will Not
Keep Them Out OF Campaign; To
Run Anyway

Conrad Axling and T. j. Riley will
make sticker campaign for the of
flee of commissioner at the election
Nov. S. Following the ruling of
Judge E. E. Hardin that their names
could not be placed on the ballot, it
was decided to distribute stickers in
every precinct OF the county.
The Democrats are reused to act
ion as a result of the tussle to get
the names on the ballot, and lively
election is promised.
People throughout the county who
have been displeased with the way
that the affairs of the county have
been conducted during the last two
years, are welcoming the opportunity
to express their dissatisfaction with
the Mcmillan Slater regime. and
heavy vote for Axling and Riley Is
expected.

of high-grade carbon to use for the
same purpose.
The pits before they are delivered
to central collecting points should
not be cracked, but dried carefully
in the sun or ovens. Rain will not
injure the stones or shells provided
they are thoroughly dried afterwards.
Only the shells of walnuts and the
stones from the fruit listed above
should be sent, as the Government
chemists have carefully selected the
kinds which are most valuable for the
gas mask manufacture. 1t requires
about 200 peach pits or pounds of
nut shells to produce carbon enough
for one mask. This mask will pro-
tect the boys in the front line trench
es against every kind of gas excepting
one, which is seldom encountered. A
mask may be used for is hours be-
fore its contents become 50 Jurcharg-
cd with the gas as 10, render it value

Do not throw away a single peach,
plum, apricot, cherry, prune, date or
olive pit nor the shell of nut.
The United States Government
asks you to give to the Lynden
Red Cross, the fruit stones you
would ordinarily throw away. About
200 peach stones will provide enough
carbon for a gas mask-the only pro-
lection between our boys and poison
Gus gases being used by Germans.
One of the essentials in the res
spirator designed to protect our SOL
diers on the front lines against dead
ly gases is carbon. The efficiency of
the mask to a large extent depends
upon the quality of the carbon. An
excellent quality is obtained from
fruit pits and nut shells, which are
ordinarily regarded as valueless, the
people of this country are now asked
to save, as our Government is exper-
fencing difficulty in getting the right
kind of carbon. The British Gov
ernment has also asked for a supply

FINDS PRICES WAY UP WAY
DOWN IN SOUTH AMERICA

Nels Jacobson, jr., who is in the
United States Navy, found that prices
were way up when he visited South
America this month. He writes OF
his experience there in the following
letter received here this week:
well now l can say that | have
been in South America, but believe
me, l would not care to live there,
at least not where We were. do
not know what the people live on
there: we certainly did not see any
thing growing around there. and ev-
erything is so high that you can't af-
ford to buy anything. They do not
use American money, SO when we
wanted to buy anything, we had to
get our money exchanged for their
money. One peso is equal to 3S 1-3

and the condenseries of Washington
have signified their willingness to
agree to a national price set by the
national government Surely such a
price would eliminate all thought of
unfair treatment by the producers
and at the same time would place the
condenseries in such a position that
their business could be conducted on
a safe basis"
''In the years of 1914, 1915 and
1916 the dairymen were making mo-
ney and prospering. 1t is time to
analyze carefully and determine why
contention should be made that dai-
rymen are not making money at pres
ent prices.
'In the statement published in the
August Monthly Bulletin the cost
of producing milk as shown therein,
when carefully analyzed. shows great
inequalities of cost as applied to the
different herds, and statistics made
up from this report should be care
fully analyzed and the dairymen
should realize that there must be
efficiency in their business just the
same as in any line of business If
they are going to be as successful as
their neighbOrs who are their COM
petitors. 1t should not cost more to
feed a cow on one farm per 100
pounds milk produced than it does
to feed a COW on the neighboring
farm, nor should it cost more per cow
for labor. These costs should be care
fully analyzed in order that the great
est benefit may be obtained from
this report. and that the dairymen
should not be discouraged by the
cost of production as shown therein
No attempt should be made to COM
mercialize the COW without handling
her on a commercial basis, and then
only with the idea that she is produc'
ing milk for purpose which will
stand the cost Of such commercial

not being commercialized in other
sections OF the country and there is
no reason why 1t should be felt that
this can be accomplished in Wash.

from other states.
1.-THE prices paid by the condens
cries for milk and the prevailing
price for butterfat in 1918 show ar
advance over the price in 1914. 1915
1916, and 1917. which corresponds
in a fair way with the increased cos
of feed, labor and other items which
enter into milk production costs.

LYNDEN SCHOOLS MAY
NOT OPEN ON MONDAY
County superintendent Declares That
No Decision Has Been Made Yet
On Situation

Lynden's public schools may not
open again Monday, according to an
opinion expressed today by Mrs. o.
B. Mum, county superintendent of
schools. A definite order in regard
to further closing will not be given
out until Friday or Saturday.
'It is doubtful whether the schools
will open Monday" said Mrs. Mum.
"The county health officer may de-
eide that they should be kept closed
for another week. The Bellingham
schools are not planning to open, and
/ doubt whether the county will be
given permission to do so.
"An announcement will be made at
the end of the week in regard to the
situation"
Teachers will draw their pay as
usual during the epidemic. according
to an opinion given by the attorney

industry is mining, and the only way
they can get away from there is by
boat
Five dollars didn't amount to any
thing when it came to buying any
thing. A pair of shoes cost from $40
to SIS and a suit of clothes cost
about a hundred dollars by the time
they get the cloth and have it made.
1t took us eighteen days to go
from San Pedro to Chile. and l am

WILL HOLD SPECIAL
ELECTION SATURDAY
School Board Calls For Vote To
Increase Levy To Pay Advanced
War Expenses

In order to provide for the big
increase in expense that has been
brought about by rising war costs,
a special school election will be held
Saturday afternoon at the Lynden
High School to vote an extra eight
mill levy. The polls will be open
from l D. m. until 6 p. m.
War prices have hit the schools
especially hard Salaries have gone
up to meet increased living costs, and
supplies and other expenses have
jumped. The Lynden schools are
getting along this year with two less
instructors than last year, but the
saving in this has been eaten up by
advances at other points.

date when AVS will be given for

their money.

TAX LEVIES GO UP
TWO MILLS ALREADY
State Needs Advance One Mills And
County Jumps Forward One; 9th
er Boosts Expected

An advance of one mill in the levy
of the State of Washington and an
advance of one mill in the levy of
Whatcom County are the taxation
increases that were announced this
week thus far. Further increases In
other departments may be looked for.
The Town of Lynden's tax levy Is
still indefinite, as the figures have
SCISSORS Office.
The county levy will be 20.46S
mills. This is an increase of slightly
more than one mill. The larger coun-
ty levy is accounted for mainly by the
addition of one mill for river i'm
provement purposes. levy made ne
cessary by surplus waters of the
Nooksack river.
Discounting the levy for this pur-
pose the county levy approximates
that of last year. or 19.45 mills. The
same millage this year will raise
about $4,000 more than last year
owing to an increase of $72O.873 in
the assessed valuation. The county
levy was fixed this week.
This year with q levy Of four mills
made for thirty miles Of concrete
roads, which will raise 100000, the
1918 county levy was $35S,110.2O,
which is $25.771.22 less than the
1914 levy. which levy had been made
when the present board took office.
In the meantime the old debt of the
county-$33s,6S5.22-has been liq-
Undated with the exception Of 100000
and the county has SO per cent of the
cost of the proposed Deming-Wick-
ersham road of thirteen miles on
hand.
This years county levy will raise
$522,035.51 as compared with $4S2,-
O23.7S raised last year with levy
of 1916 mills. Including the state
levy the consolidated levy this year
is 81 mills as compared with 29-11
mills last year. and it will raise a
total Of $79O,63S.33. On the same
basis the county's gain thru
an increase in assessed valuation is
this year 314,020.97.
The various levies, with the
amount each will raise. follow:

The word "Anxac," as you probably
know, is made from the initials Of the
Australian and New Zealand army
corps. They had q regular town, called
Anzac, on the peninsula. At Suvla

got further into the Turkish lines than
any other unit In the allied armies.
They were wonderful fighters.
