GIRL SIGNS
UP FOR OVERSEAS WORK

The many friends of Miss Ruth Dye
will be more than interested to know
that on Tuesday of last week she
took the civil service examination in
Denver, passed a splendid examina-
ton and signed up with our Uncle
Sammy for stenographic work across
the sea. She will remain with her
parents her until her call to Washing
ton arrives, which will likely not be
very long.
Julesburg people have just cause to
be very proud of Ruth. She has spent
the last ten years among us during
which time she has graduated from
Sedgwick county high school and has
always been leader and success in
all things undertaken. She is the on
ly daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Finley
Dye.
Last year she entered the Denver
University and along with her col
lege work took up the study of music.
So ably did she do her work during
the year she received the honorable
appointment of first assistant of psy-
chology for the coming year This
she forfeits in her willingness to do
her duty to her country
She enjoys the honor of being the
first Sedgwick county girl to go-the
first undergraduate from the Uni
versity, and the first from her sority,
the Sigma kappas. Her brother Vim
cent will go with her to Washington,
where he will enter school of medi-
cine and be near her while she is in
that city.

NEWS NOTES FROM COUNTY AGENT

By WALTER J. OFT. Agent

given by the Inspector will be final
and binding on both seller and buyer.
This will eliminate disputes between
the seller and the buyer and place
them on an equal footing.
"The effect of the arrangement up
on the potato-growing industry will
be, on the whole, beneficial. 1t will
put a premium on quality. and the
good grower will obtain higher price
for his product, while the Indifferent
grower who produces poor potatoes
will either have to reform in his prac
tice or quit the business.
"Thc past method of selling and
marketing potatoes has been extreme
lily wastful. Fifteen per cent of all
potatoes marketed have been thrown
away after reaching their destination,
either at a commission house or at
the point of consumption. This waste
alone for the United States amounted
to about 6O,0O0,0OO bushels. This
amount should have been left on the
farm and fed to live stock. The loss
IN transportation charges, carriage
and containers amounted to several
million dollars which, in the end, came
out of the producers pockets. 1t is
hoped that the new arrangements will,
to large extent, eliminate this ire
mendous waste.
Present Price of Pork Inducement to
Pig Club Members
Every boy and girl in Colorado who
is keeping pig should make his ami
NAL put on every pound of gain pos
sible these days. Hogs in proper
market condition sold for $500 per
hundred recently and every pound
gained now will yield a high return.
While feed is high, the price Of pork
is high enough to justify the best of
care, according to J. T. Jingle, boys
and girls club specialist in pig clubs.
Mr.. Tingle says:
This is busy session with many of
our boys and girls, large number OF
whom are at work in the fields and
there is a tendency for them to ne
elect feeding and watering their pl%s.
4 pig should be fed grain at least
twice a day, in the morning and at
night. 1t should be kept on pasture
or have green feed and water should
be before it at all times. The feed is
what determines the profit in pork
production.
Dixie" Colorado club pig,
weighed recently, tipped the scales at
Sc pounds. Her age was II days.
This pig has made remarkable gain.
