Iron Rations'' Are Now
Given To Eeach Soldier

Has Saved The Life Of Many A
Fighter Marooned In A Shell
Hole-First Publicity Civ
en- To Civilians

A government request for bids
on 100000 emergency rations for
the army in France brings to light the
interesting story of how American
industry has broken records in put
ting up the 'iron ration" that the
boys take with them when they go
over the top. The ''iron ration" is
30 called because it is impervious to
gas, water and air. It is in an her
metically sealed tin which can be
slipped into a soldiers pocket with
out inconvenience.
Back in June, General Pershing
cabled a request to the quartermas
ter's department for "a million of
the emergency rations like those for
merly turned out by Armour Packing
Company. The quartermaster got
in communication at once with Arm
our & Co. and it developed that this
particular ration was mixture of
wheat and beef dried and ground to
a powder and three cakes Of choco-
late.
The special machinery necessary
for putting up this ration had been
dismantled years before, but the urg-
ency was made clear and the Armour
officials at once made the telegraph
wires hot in locating the needed
equipment at the various plants and
in ordering the immediate assembling
of the machinery at Kansas City.

CRACK
SAFE; ESCAPE
In STOLEN CAR

Yeggs blew open the safe of the
First State bank of CoIfax, at Coll
fax, Richland county, about o'clock
Sunday morning and escaped with
approximately $500, in an automo-
bile which they stole from William
McRoberts, cashier of the bank. later
abandoning the machine in Fargo.
The robbery was reported Sunday
morning to W. c. Macfadden, secre-
tary Of the North Dakota Bankers
association, and also to the sheriff
and the police departments in Fargo.
A shipment of money from a bank
in Wahpeton was due to reach the
First State bank of Colfax, Satur-
day morning, but in some manner
it was delayed and did not roach
Colfax until Sunday morning.
The explosion threw the main safe
door ten feet away. and partially
wrecked the bank interior. The af-
fair wasn't discovered till early
Sunday forenoon.
The car stolen by the men was
housed in a garage near the bank.
The men evidently pushed it from
the garage to the bank, and at one
point sent it into ditch.

IdahO'S Organization Appreciated

Idaho has one of the most COM
plete war organizations in the u.
S. This in brief is the report that
Joseph Hansen of Boise, secretary
of the state council of defense,
brought back this week with him
from Washington, D. c., where
he was afforded an opportunity to
confer with those actively in
charge of war work and hear re-
ports made by other states. 1t
was gratifying to him and will
unquestionably be so to all men,
bers of county councils to learn
they are part of an organization
which is recognized as one of the
best by the nations leaders.
This state has yet to see a fail
ure in going over the top on war
drive whether it be for men or
money. 1t has been prepared and
is still prepared to make any sac
rifices the nation may call for.
