NEW REGULATIONS FOR
SUGAR DISTRIBUTION
No More Sugar for Canning Pur-
poses at Present for Those Who
Have Bought

A new ruling of the food admin
istration recently received by county
food administrator, R. M. Adams,
makes it impossible for anyone who
has had rs pounds of sugar this sea-
SON for canning to obtain a second
lot at the present time. Those who
have not had rs pounds Of sugar for
canning may get some if the county
food administrator approves it. To
get sugar for canning just at pres
ent a person must have something
to can at once, as they will not be
allowed to buy for future use.
The reason for this new order is
explained by the fact that the heavy
canning esason for Minnesota does
not come until August and September
while further south they need the
sugar at the present time. When
the canning season opens here the
sugar will be turned back this way
and other districts will have more
restricted privileges.
The rule of three pounds per
month for each member Of the family
for household purposes is still main
tanned, but purchases can only be
made in 2-pound lots to city people
and 5-pound lots to country people,
and each purchaser must sign paper
saying that he has not purchased
more than his allotment that month.

SEED CAMPAIGN FOR
1919 ALREADY BEGUN
Corn Survey Being Made in Every
/ County in This State To Lo-
t cate Seed

AS preliminary to the gathering
of seed corn for 1919 and even for
1920, F. e. Balmer, state leader of
county agricultural agents, has had
started survey of every corn county
in the state to locate every possible
field planted with good local seed.
Mr., Balmer's idea has been to To-
cate fields that will produce desir-
able seed for Minnesota and to en-
courage farmers in all Minnesota
corn areas to prepare for the selection
and proper curing and storing of a
large amount of seed corn this fall.
He has urged the selection of seed
in the different counties, demonstra-
tions as to the methods of curing and
storing, and the erection of racks
for both curing and storing, by every
farmer likely to have good seed.
County agents throughout the state
have cooperated in this work in the
hope that this fall an ample supply
of seed corn for next year may be
laid away and a surplus accumulated
for use in 1920 if necessary.
Preparation for securing supplies
of other seed grains and of seeds of
other crops is also being urged.

Harry Lord Married

Harry Lord surprised his many
friends in Morris by getting married
last Saturday, the wedding taking
his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. M. B. Lord.
Harry has been stationed at Camp
Joseph E. Johnstone, Jacksonville, fol
eight months and came home on a
ten days leave of absence. He had
been placed in an oversee unit and
expected orders which would send
them to France soon. For this rea-
son he was anxious to visit with
home folks before leaving, but very
few geussed the real reason for his
visit.
The lady of his choice was Miss
Agnes Wig, who has been matron of
the dining hall at the West Central
School of Agriculture for the past
two years. Miss Wigs home was at
Fosston, Mimi, where her father is
an attorney.
The ceremony was performed in
the presence of few near friends
and relatives. Miss Pauline Lord,
sister of the groom, was the brides
maid, and Mr.. VIM. Frame was best
man. F. e. Stever performed the
ceremony.
When Harry left Camp Johnson
he expected to stay for ten days, but
the same evening of his marriage he
received orders to report at camp at
once as they had received oversee
orders. He and his bride left the
same evening for Chicago, where they
were held up by train connections
for "a hours. Harry left for Camp
Johnson on Monday and shortly af-
ter the train pulled out a telegram
was received ordering him to report
to an Atlantic port. The telegram
was forwarded to him and 1t is per-
sumed he changed his course and
went to the latter place, where he
will undoubtly board ship for the
other side. Mrs. Lord remained in
Chicago for an extended visit with
friends and will likely return later
to her home at Fosston.
The newly married couple were
given good send-off from Morris.
The Home Guard was at the depot
to bid them good bye and the mem
bers of the Morris Fire Department
took the bride and groom to the
depot on the fire truck and gave them
a lively time until the midnight
train pulled in.

NEWSPAPERS STOP
ALL FREE COPIES
War Board Orders That No Papers
Be Sent Except to Paying
Subscribers

The War Industries Board has
taken several measures to conserve
the supply of paper and has made
several rules for newspapers among
which are that all free copies shall
be stopped, free exchanges cut off,
and the practice of sending out sam
pie copies discontinued.
Heretofore The Morris Tribune
has supplied the ministers, CORES
pondents, and yearly advertisers with
a free copy and has from time to
time sent out sample copies, and has
generally made no charge for single
copy that some regular subscriber
wanted and called for at the Office.
Under the present order, however,
these practices will be discontinued,
and we shall have no complimentary
list at all.
Single copies will be sold at five
cents each.
In going over our list we find that
we can save between two and three
per cent of the print paper we are
using. This amounts to very little
with one paper, but like the food saw
ing rules and all other war measures
amounts to a great deal in the ag-
gregate.
The official order in so far as it
applies to weekly papers is as fol-
lows:-
Because of an acute shortage in
the supply of paper the War Indus
tries Board announced, effective
July Is, the following preliminary
economies to be enforced by news
papers publishing a daily and week
ly edition:
Discontinue the use of all samples
and free promotion copies.
Discontinue giving copies to any
body, except for office working copies
or where required by statute law in
the case of official advertising.
Discontinue all free exchanges"

Kerkhoven Smokers Form Club

Nearly every man in Kerkhoven
who uses tobacco in any form has
taken the pledge to give to the Red
Cross an amount of money equal to
the amount he spends each day for
cigars, cigarets, or any other form of
tobacco, and to use only one-half the
daily quota to which he is accus-
toned. The pledge further calls*for
the patronizing of such merchants
and dealers in tobacco as will keep
in conspicuous place on their cigar
counter a registered Red Cross saw
ings bank for deposits.

THIRTY MEN ORDERED
TO CAMP WADSWORTH
Cah for More Minnesota Boys Will
Take Thirty From This
County

Another quota of stalwart and 10y
al young fellows will leave Stevens
county on Friday, July 26, to join
the great hest in the world war.
The call is for ten thousand boys
from Minnesota and this makes
Stevens county's share thirty.
At the present time the list of the
men is not completed. All Of the re-
naming men in class one are farmers
whose help is needed at this time to
harvest the crop and an effort is be-
ing made to get the thirty men from
the newly registered list. The only
way these men can be taken out of
their turn is for them to volunteer
and already about a dozen Of the
young fellows have offered their
services and in doing this they are
not only going to the front to do
actually fighting, but they also offer
themselves in advance Of their turn
in order that the others may remain
to reap the crops which, are needed
80 badly to free the people Of the
world.
This quota of men will go to Camp
Wadsworth, South Carolina, for
training.
The list Of the men was received
Just before going to press and Is
given below: Tt shows that twelve
young men volunteered from those
registered this year and the remain
ing eighteen are from the 1917 reg
tstration.
Twelve men Of new registration,

EVERYBODY MUST HELP,
FARMERS IN HARVEST
Business Men Of Morris Will Do
Everything Possible To Help
Save Crops

The farmers of the state of Min
nesota and the entire Northwest are
facing a serious proposition right
now in their effort to obtain help for
the coming harvest, and it will be
necessary, for every man to help to the
utmost in order to care for the crop
as it should be cared for and get it
cut and shocked at the proper time.
Since last harvest hundreds of young
men have left the state for military
service and this number naturally
included large number of farmers
son and their hired men.
A census has recently been taken
of Stevens county to find out how
many men will be needed to work in
the harvest fields and it IS found that
there is demand for $50 men by the
farmers of this county alone. At a
recent meeting of the Morris Com
mercial Club this important matter
was taken up and the business men
Of Morris consented to do everything
possible to assist the farmers and
even offered to close their business
places if it became absolutely neces-
sary.
County Agent Nash and Food Ad-
ministrator Adams have called on
every business man in the city and
nearly everyone has offered to release
all the men they can spare, even to
locking up their places entirely If
the situation proves critical.
That the farmers are facing one Of
the most serious situations ever to
come up, is quite evident. Auth.
entic reports from all sections Of Min
nesota indicate phenomenal crop OF
hay, wheat, oats and other small
grain and the immediate problem is
to secure adequate man power for
its harvesting. The state is in q
position to make the biggest contri-
button possible towards winning the
war and it is a patriotic duty for
every man here at home to assist in
every way possible.
There is a farm labor shortage.
More than $4,000 of our young men
are now under arms and 10000 more
will go in the Ave days beginning
July %. High wages and the In
dustrial demands Of the government
for it's ship building and munition
plants have taken away thousands
of our workers of non-military age.
There are many men in the cities
and villages engaged in occupations
which could be handled by women
and children, or which could be
closed down entirely for week or
two. Besides this there are many
men engaged in repair and construc-
tion work that could safely be post
poned, but which is still going on
and taking the time of laborers used
to outdoor work who would be most
useful on farms. This condition
must be changed. The harvest can
not be postponed, but many other
things can.
Morris tribune., 1918-07-19

mitted to do so, but no threshermen
can charge more than that.
The question of labor was also
taken up at the meeting and the
maximum price was set at s4.00 a
day for experienced help during har-
vest and threshing. Indian labor was
also discussed and it was decided to
get rs Indians from the reservation
near Itasca to help out the labor
problem.

AUTOMOBILE BUSINESS
7 PLACED ON WAR BASIS
Garages, Oil Stations and Accessory
Dealers in Morris Make New
Rules

LII DecemDer OF ISl1 the Council
of National Defense, thru the War
Emergency Board, authorized the
Chamber of Commerce of the United
States to mobilize the Industrial and
business organizations of the country
for the purpose of winning the war.
War service committees were auth
orized by this War Emergency Board,
and every business in the United
States was requested to re-organize
its method of transacting business
and change its business policy Of
peace times for wartime policy" I"
Every business was also asked
to make recommendations and find
ings to the War Economy Board that
would conserve man power and re-
lease mechanics required for war
purposes, and also eliminate waste
of material in shop methods.
In March of 1918 the War Service
Committee of the automobile deal
ers of the United States made its
report. The Board accepted and in
dorsed the findings on behalf of the
Council Of National Defense and ap-
pointed the National Dealers Asso-
citation administrator for the automo-
bile and allied industries with auth
ority to enforce all recommendations.
These recommendations will be ad-
ministered by every automobile deal
er, garage owner, oil company, ac-
cessory and supply house in the
country for the purposes of releas-
ing the necessary skilled mechanics
and man power and also to conserve
the gasoline supply.
The new rules for the automobile
business have been in effect in the
larger cities for sometime, but they
will now apply to every town and
village in the United States and be-
ginning last Monday, July 15, the
garages, auto dealers and supply men
Of Morris adopted the new rules and
are now living up to them strictly.
This wartime policy calls for
the following rules: Night. Sunday
and Holiday service has been discon-
tinued and all garages will be closed
at six o'clock each evening, except
Wednesdays and Saturdays, when
they will remain open until 10
o'clock. They will be closed all day
on Sunday and every holiday. The
only business transacted when the
garages are. closed will be to admit
cars for storage purposes, but no
gasoline supplies will be sold during
the closed hours.
The business will also go on a
strictly cash basis and all gasoline,
repairs and parts will be cash. The
government has requested that all
business be conducted as economical
ly and efficiently as possible and this
can only be done on cash basis. In
order to establish this rule on war
basis, all customers will be treated
alike. Credit departments will be
abandoned and charge accounts dis
continued. This will eliminate un-
necessary Office work and will elm
mate all losses.
The automobile business is today
the third largest industry in the
country and 1t is doing as much as
any other single industry toward
winning the war. These new rules
will help even more along this line.
