Watkins Lady Bitten
By Rattlesnake

Mrs. Traukman, of Watkins met
with a rather serious accident last
Monday when she had the misfor-
tune of being bitten by a rattle
snake.
Mrs. Traukman had been work
ing in the garden or field near
their place and while near a rock
pile in attempting to pick up a
rock, was suddenly bitten by a
rattler, the snake giving no alarm
whatever.
The lady was Immediately
brought to Circle but doctor
Koehler happened to be away.
However the lady was given the
best care and assistance it was
possible to give, while here, and at
latest reports is getting along al
right.

Graded Road Thru Paxton

At last Paxton : is to have the
graded road that has been held up
for so long for one reason and an
other. As soon as practicable,
work will be started on the road,
which will extend from Richey to
Redwater by way of Paxton, and
connect up with the other road
now reaching Redwater. Those
who have a considerable amount
of heavy hauling to do will thor
oughly appreciate what this news
means to them.
When County Commissioners
Andrew Larson and Hedley Robin
son were here the latter part of
the week, they made it known
that work would be started on the
road by the county grading outfit
just as soon as possible. Bob
Hufiy, road supervisor for this dis
trict, will have charge of putting
in the culverts and various items
of other work that will be needed
as the grading progresses. Mr..
Hufiy has been making splendid |
with the grading at the
new bridge across the Redwater
at Paxton, and will have that
work practically completed the
present week.
The road between here and
2edwater postofice has been es-
)ecially bad at times, and the new
yrade will afford a welcome relief
rom the bad periods that have
ormerly existed for all those tray
ling over that route.
The certainty of a new state
Dad in the near future, extending
rom Fairview to Lewistown, and
which will pass through Paxton,
will doubtless do much to hurry
construction on the county road. (

Eynon Buys Nc Clintock's
Stock In First National

A deal which has been pending
for some time was finally closed
this week whereby A. w. Eynon,
president of the First National
Bank at this place, purchased the
stock owned in the bank by w. c..
McClintock of Miles City.
Mr.. Eynon is now the main
stockholder in the First National
Bank owning three-fourths of the
capital stock, and is surely a good
indication of the confidence which
Mr.. Eynon has in the future of
Circle and the surrounding coun-
try.

Government Employment
Office Opens in Miles City

Having as its slogan Public
Service and Square Deal" the
U. S. Employment Service has
opened for business.
The Miles City office will cover
the following counties: Custer,
Rosebud, Dawson, Richland, Pral-
rie, Fallon, Carter and Webeaux.
On account of the great num-
ber Of men being called away due
to the war, il will be well for en-
ployers to anticipate their future
needs regarding help, SO that the
crops may be harvested and all
other lines of industry kept NOV
ing, for without the united effort
of all, our country can not sue
ceed as it should.
The men and women seeking
employment will find it to their
advantage to use the service, as
they will in this way keep IN
touch with positions that are
open and it will eliminate all
idleness, especially at this time
when every citizen should be en-
nlovod at some useful occupation.
To farmers especially this SER
vice means much, and it is desira-
Bile that they advise this office OF
their needs before the help IS
actually needed, so that the prop
er selection of help can be secur-
ed and ready for them when the
work is to be done.
All communications should be
addressed to ]. T. McMahon, *

BRITISH DARE
DODCED BY
HUNS
VESSELS NEAR BY FAILED TO
PROTECT OWN CRAFT

LONDON, April 1S.-The British ma
val success against the German mine
sweepers in the Categat recently, says
the Daily Telegraph, is sufficient ans
wer to the Germans who say the Brit
ish Grand Fleet is in hiding. The pa
per points out that the exploit was
carefully planned and the operation
conducted more than five hundred
miles from the nearest point of the
British coast.
1t adds: "Such sweep can be made
only by power in real control of the
sea. and confronted by an enemy who
will not risk protecting his small craft.
Suspecting such an intervention might
be. a prelude to a general action, he
desires to avoid.
THE Germans had large naval fore
es near the scene the Monday but per-
mitted ten trawlers to be destroyed
virtually under their eyes,"

ENLARCINC POTATO
STORAGE HOUSE
INTEREST IN CARE OF SWEET
POTATOES is WIDENING
OVER COUNTRY

A letter from W. w. CroXton, Gen
eral Passenger Agent of the A. B. &
A. Railroad to Local Frengith Agent
w. w. Bercaw, indicates that potato
housing is becoming matter of
great Importance. 1t is printed here
to help strengthen interest in this
section if such thing is possible
The letter follows;
"As information, Mr. j. C. Wright
OF the Roanoke Banking Company,
Roanoke, Ala, is arranging to build
sweet potato storage house at
Roanoke, with a capacity of from
900 to 100000 bushels, according to
the acreage we estimate will be
planted in potatoes in the territory
tributary to Roanoke this year.
"Please try to interest all the farm
ers in your community to plant sweet
potatoes this year, in order that we
may cooperate in every way we can
with Mr.. Wright in his enterprise.
81 understand that other sweet
potato storage houses are already in
existence or will be built The plant,
which Mr.. Wright is arranging to
build. however, is so large that he
will have to look beyond the immedi-
ate vicinity for sufficient potatoes to
fill his house. This storage house,
therefore, absolutely insures pro
fitable market either the sale of the
crop in the fall of the year or by rea-
son of the storage facilities thus pro
vided."

WASHINGTON April 1S.-Elimina-

BOND TRAIN
DESERVES A ROAST
MEN IN CHARGE TREAEO PEo-

AFTERNOON LIKE CATTLE

Did you go down to see the war re-
lie on the Liberty Bond train yester-
day afternoon? If you did, you
promised not to go to see another
Just like it, The men in charge behav-
ed just as if those who were sight
seeing were so many cattle. One
citizen, merchant, had done fine
part by his local committee, but he
wanted to add another handsome
contribution in bond pledges, but
when the crew in charge of the
train got through with him, he was
quite too ready to join in. He was
accustomed to civil treatment and
he didn't get it.
Many ridiculous incidents occurred
and nobody had opportunity to do
much ether than mount, be driven
through like cattle and jump out in
a big hurry at the other end.
If those in charge had been dis
posed to show and explain instead
of drive through in great hurry,
there might have been some results.
The relic train was great dis ap-
pointment in Cordele, and there were
many people to see it. both white
and black.
