VICTORY GARDENS WHY?

Victory Gardens!
 They're planting and planting them everywhere this year.
 Did you know that Miama had a 100-acre Victory Garden?
 Have you planted your Victory Garden?
 Now is the time to act.
 And there is a reason.
 The nation really needs the ex- tra food that you can raise.
 Perhaps you personally or your family will need it.
 There is the same reason back of Victory Gardens that there is back of Victory Bread. Both are needed to save wheat.
 There is a real wheat shortage in this country, and the pinch is bound to come sooner or later.
 Every householder that can grow some of the food that he eats from his own table, and whose family eats less wheat as a result, will be serving the na- tion in this respect as we'll as in the broader aspect of increasing production. Food Administration

NOTICE!

Notice is hereby given to those having claims against Apache county, that with the moving in- to the new Court House I posi- lively intend to follow the law in regard to the filing of demands against the County, as set forth in the following paragraph, viz: Sec. B of Para. 413 Revised Stat. 1913, No account must necessar- fly be passed upon by the Board, unless made out as described in the proceeding section and filed by the clerk at least one day prior to the session at which same is asked to be heard" :"
 This action is taken for the reason that in the past more de- mands have been filed on the day the Board met than all the rest of the month put together, which results in confusion and greatly flinders the work of the Board.
 Very Respectfully Yours
 LEVI s. UDALL,
 Clerk, Board of Supervisors.

CALLED HOME.

The people of Apache county were shocked last Friday morn ing to hear of the death of Miss Polly Hamblin, the IT year old daughter of MT. and Mrs. Duane Hamblin, of Ramah, N. M.
 Miss Polly has attended the St. Johns academy for the past two or three terms and came here last fall and commenced the term for this year, but was compelled to quit on account of her health.
 Drs. Brown and Bouldin were called and pronounced it leakage of the heart. They did all they could to relieve her suffering. Her parents came and took her to Ramah, but she did not gain any strength but slowly became weak CT. She was finally taken to Gal lup and placed in the Sacred Heart hospital, where death came to her relief March P.
 Miss Hamblin was one of the sweetest spirits sent here on earth to dwell for a short period and was beloved by all who knew her.
 Some relatives and Bp. w. D. Rencher went to Ramah to attend the funeral services.
