CONSIDERATIONS REVERSED.
EImer O. WoIken and Fred Zateehka
Of Dillon, in Class I.

'cimoT ~. "oIkon ana ff0o Ideecukd,
Of Dillon, in Class I.
As result Of instructions issued
to township councils of defense by the
county council, the classiications Of
two Dillon young men have been re-
versed by the district exemption board.
The cases were those Of Elmer o.
Wolken and Fred Zatechka. Each had
been placed in deferred class be-
cause Of agricultural claims. The
county council Of defense ordered the
township council to investigate, and II
justified, to obtain and file affidavits in
the cases thru County Attorney Scott.
This was done, and the local exemp-
ton board has been notified that both
Wolken and zatechka have been re-
classified in Glass l. Neither young
man Is married.
In third case from the Dillon
neighborhood the district board re-
ported that It would allow the deferred
classification as originally made to
stand for the present. This was the
case Of Martin B. Benson. It was sim
liar In most respects to the other two,
except that the showing was made
for Benson that his father, John Ben
son, was 81 years Of age, and much
older than the father Of either of the
other boys. The local exemption board
understands that the district board
may take the Benson case up again.

fresh air and exercise. If colds do
start, nip them In the bud" by using
vapoRub-it is externally applied and
can therefore be used freely and often,
with perfect safety, on the smallest
member Of the family.
VapoRub comes in salve form and
is applied over the throat and chest,
covering with. a warm flannel cloth.
The body heat releases indicated vap-
ors that are inhaled with every breath,
all night long, through the air pass
ages to the lungs. These vapors loosen
the phlegm and cleamthe air passages.
In cases of very severe chest colds
or incipient pneumonia nrst apply hot,
wet towels over the throat and chest
to open the pores. VapoRub Is then
absorbed through and stimulates the.
skin, taking out that tightness and
soreness in the chest.

Altho the food administration has
raised the ban on the killing OF hens,
care should be taken not to dispose OF
hens which are producers. and at the
present time only old hens and unpro-
ducers should be marketed. When the
Matching season Is over male birds
should be disposed Of In order that in
fertile eggs may be produced.
Hens will lay at least as we'll when
not mated as when mated. 1nfertile
eggs will keep better and the great
loss due to fertile eggs being kept in
warm temperature during the summer
will be eliminated. All laying hens
which will lay up to the time of moult
should not BIO marketed now or while
they are laying. as we need the eggs
to keep up our supply Of food
Many. Of the eggs that have been
laid during the last few months have
been consumed. and comparatively few
have been stored. Many eggs should

| be and will be preserved In water
glass or lime water and by other
methods within the next few months,
On account OF these facts II is fair to
assume that there will be a keen de-
mand for eggs for cold storage and the
price will be apt to advance.
Another fact which should be con-
sidered in this connection Is that from
now on most of the food consumed by
the farm flock will be picked up, and
very little marketable grain Will have
to be supplied. consequently laying
hens can be kept for the next few
months at low cost. and they VIII
therefore produce the maximum pro-
fit.
Any one desiring informant oil the
preservation OF eggs or the care OF the
flock should consult the state agricul-
tural college at Amos, or the United
States department OF agriculture
either directly or thru their county
agent
