IMPORTANT NOTICE

To All Residents of the State of New
Mexico
Local and District Boards of this
State have practically completed the
classification Of registrants under the
Seective Service Law, who registered
prior to June fifth, nineteen hundred
eighteen.
The members of these Boards have
labored faithfully and conscientiously
to complete this gigantic task and
have, in each instance, made the prop
er classification on the evidence pre-
sented by the questionnaire.
There are, no doubt, cases where the
missionaries failed to present the
true state of facts and in these cases
the Boards have, of necessity, been
unable to do justice.
1t now becomes the patriotic duty
of every resident of this state having
knowledge of any unjust or improper
classification to report TO Capt. X. {.
Reid, U. S. r., at Santa Fe, the facts
in the case, giving the name and post
office address Of such registrant. that
the case may be thoroughly nvestigat-
ed. Such report will be treated in the
strictest confidence. The Selectivc
Service Law will only be successful
in the same degree as classification are
properly made, and it is with view
of correcting any erroneous classified.

At this time, when the nation Is cali

gers from hog diseases, especially hog
cholera
Cholera can be controlled, and Ten

trolling this season. Dr. M. Jacob,
State Veterinarian and head of the
hog cholera control work of the State
Department of Agriculture, at Nash
vile, has several specialists in hog
cholera at work all of the time. In
almost every community are men who
hold permits to use virus in hog
cholera eradication and prevention. To
these men DR.. Jacob has addressed the
following letter:
you, as an official virus permit
holder, are a part of the cholera con-
troll division and as a patriotic Amer
lean citizen we expect you to do your
part in this nation and statewide
movement for increased hog produc-
ton. You are already familiar with
the characteristics of hog cholera and
know what can be done toward it's con-
troll and eradication. By all means in
sist on the strict quarantine of sick
herds and the burning of carcasses

state regulations require"

On January II, Friday, at the county
scat will be held big mass meeting
In the interest of hog production. EV-
cry patriotic citizen in the county is
expected to attend.
The Government has asked Tennes-
see to do her share In increasing the
hogs in the State. From Tennessee in
1918 is expected 100000 more hogs
than she produced in 1917.
What the Government asks we must
do to help win the war.
We can do it. Definite plans are be-
ing made by leaders in the work over
the State. These plans will be sug-
gested to the counties at the mass
meetings to be held on January H.
No county will be asked to do more
than 1t can do. The number OF hogs
In the various counties for 1917 has
been ascertained and from this figure
the basis of increase expected is being
made. Each county must produce IL
per cent more than lasts year.
Each county has County Food Ad,
ministrator. This official will be the
person to take the lead. Let every pa
triotic person offer assistance in this
effort which means so much at this
time when America expects every man
to do his duty.
