WHO MUST GO NEXT

The dispatches from Washington
indicate that it will be the policy of
the war department to call in the Oc'
tober draft after the present list is
exhausted, the men between 10 and
20, and those between 80 and SO.
Such a statement has been issued and
it would look reasonable that this
would be the program. Question
naires are to be sent to men of these
ages first and local boards will be or
dered to classify them at once Co
use in the October calls. $50 1000 OF
the men under twenty can be induct-
ed into the S. A. T. c. as the strength
of that corps is authorized at that
number. AS there should be at least
1000, 900 under twenty register, it does
not provide for all Of the younger
men to be indicted into college
courses. AS far as the exemption of
men on account of employment in es-
sential industries, it has been pointed
out that the preferred class Of the
priority board, as to fuel, would be a
good rule to go by in passing on the
claims of the men so applying.

FORTY THOUSAND
WORKERS ENLIST
LIBERTY LOAN CAMPAIGN FOR
THIS DISTRICT WILL TAKE
FIVE DAYS
TO MAKE A WlRLO BREAKING RECORD
South Dakota viii Be Asked To Again
Surprise World With Speed And
/ Big Subscriptions

Early Saturday morning, Septem'
Der 2Sth, forty thousand citizens OF
the Ninth Federal Reserve District
will start to secure the loan Of APP
proximately two hundred million dol
lars for Uncle Sam.
Quite a little organization" is the
way in which Chas. Z. Van Nest, di
rector of organization for the Ninth
district speaks Of the civilian army
that will carry the districts flag
lover the top" in the Fourth Liberty
Loan drive.
"They are getting ready in every
county," said Mr.. Van Nest. THE
patriots are not all in France and
thousands of men are giving their
time, money and best efforts in pre-
pairing to sustain the northwest's rep
utation for prompt and generous re-
spouse to the country's call for finan-
cial aid.
"The results of this wonderfully
united effort were seen in the record
made during the Third Liberty Loan
drive and we did not more than really
get started last spring. This time we
will do a much better job, more quick
ly. My prediction is that eighty per
cent of the two hundred and eighty
eight counties in this district will re-
port an over-subscription by Saturday
night. This may sound somewhat op-
timistic, but we know the men who
are going to do this job and the spirit
in which they are going to do it. They
are going to surprise the United
States and hand a real jolt to the
kaiser.
Because we are going to raise this
immense sum of money in five days
while other districts may take weeks
to accomplish a similar result, does
not mean that we have an easy task
or that two hundred million dollars
are laying idle in this district waiting
for the governments call. 1t means
that we have an army of patriotic men
who have worked out a complete and
scientific plan of organization. With
this organization perfected as it will
be before the opening of the drive
the great majority Of individuals in
the district will have been shown
their duty and will do it promptly"

received from his brother, M. ]. Muir,
ply, now in France with the Red
Cross, a German helmet taken in the
fight of the Germans from their po'

BROOKINGS. SOUTH DAKOTA, SEPTEMBER H. 1918
LOCAL PHYSICIAN CALLED

DR.. B. T. Green yesterday morning
received a telegram from the war de-
partment that he was appointed cap
tain in the Medical Corps, and in
structed to report to the commanding
general at Camp Grant, Rockford,
ILL.,, for assignment to duty at the base
hospital located there, within ten
days. In the mail on the same norm
ing he also received notice that he
had been elected a fellow of the
American College of Surgeons. This
is the highest rank that a surgeon
in the United States can receive. and
the honor was only granted four years
after DR.. Green had applied for mem.
bership. This is an association of
surgeons that corresponds in stand
ing with the Royal College Of Sur
geons in England and a fellowship Is
only granted after a rigid ~investiSa-
ton. 1t was under the auspices of
this society that Doctor Green made
his visit to the clinics of Europe four
years ago and had the advantage Of
seeing the work of foreign surgeons.
These two honors coming to the doc
tor in the same day are a compliment
not only to him, but to BrOokings.
He plans to leave the city within
eight days and will turn owe his
practice to DR.. Gulbrandsen, who has
been associated with him in the same
Offices. Brookings wishes DR.. Green
all the success in his patriotic work
that it is possible for him to have
and trusts that they will welc"' him
back to his home in .ory Time.

n COUNTY A

1t is impossible to give such a re-
view Of the county fair as we would
like as the secretary has not made
any report of the attendance and the
premium winners, it being too soon
after the fair to get out such state
ments. The exhibits were all of them
small in comparison with the years
before we entered the war, and some
people are inclined to attribute all Of
this difference 10 that cause. Search.
ty of help and high cost of what was
obtainable NJ doubt had a great deal
to do with the lack of stock exhibits,
especially among the horses and
swine. The poultry exhibit was not
as large as usual, but the class Of
birds was positively unexcelled for
quality. Several judges of poultry
who have cen other shows this year
stated that the ~fineness of the birds
was very noticeable, and as a conse-
quence DR.. Sayre is very proud of the
showing that was made by the exhib-
itors. Ed. l.. Hays, the government
poultry expect, who acted as Judge
and gave the finest satisfaction in his
work, said that in all his travel around
the state he had not seen as good a
collection of birds. In the agricultur-
al and fruit building there was not
the usual display. but as reported last
week, the corn exhibit was exception
ally fine for grade and early maturity.
The booths of two separate canning
clubs made a fine and creditable dis
play, and the work of the boys and
girls clubs was an eye opener to the
older gardeners. The Woman's build
ing was given largely to the war work
of the ladies', the usual exhibits, Of
fancy work, baking and preserves be-
ing noticeable by their absence, the
reason was a good one as all the
women of the county are putting in
all available time working to win the
war. The educational show In the
Children's building was way above the
average in number Of exhibits and
class of work and it was the best of
the building full that Superintendent

is ON

Reports from the four wards of the
city show that the registration OF
men for selective service is going on
rapidly. Numbers registered cannot
be learned, but they were ready as
soon as the registrars were open for
business at seven o'clock. Every man
liable seems ready and willing to get
his name down early. Reports from
the country indicate that the same
interest prevails. 1t is expected from
the way the registration starts that
the county will be able to register the
2 900 men who are estimated to be
liable for registry.

ROTTEN MEAT SOLD
 ID AMERICAN ARMY
 COMPLAINT CHARGES
Morris and Wilson Packing
 Houses Named; Chickens Unfit for Food Included In List of Goods Shipped
Republican A. p. Leased Wire

WASHINGTON, May 26.-Sale of spoiled meat and other food products to the army, with the knowledge that the food was unfit for human con- sumption is charged in complaints issued today by the federal trade com mission against Morris X Company, and Wilson & Company, two of the five great packing corporations. It is alleged that thousands of pounds of unfit meat and chickens were sold to Camp Travis Texas. Most of it was detected and condemned, but it is said some of it may have been passed and consumed.
 Details of the information upon which the action is based were with held by the commission. The announce ment and correspondence given out with it, however show that the alleged offenses occurred last DecembS' and are the same upon which indictments were obtained in Texas by the depart ment of justice after an investigation of reports by the food administration. The indictments were dropped because they were returned under section four of the food law, which carries no penalty.
 Must Sell Good Meat
 SlilC6 lutll DOln lilC lOOQ tration and the trade commission have cont;Sued their Investigations. If the complaint now announced should be sustained, the commission could do no ] more than order the packers to cease and desist7 from the practices. Upon repetition, offenders may be haled into federal court.
 Correspondence between E. A. Peden, food administrator for Texas, and R ' w. Boyden, chief of the enforcement division of the food administration, shows that MT Peden reported his be- l lief that the basic trouble in the case was the attempt of the packers to do business without proper facilities. As ] to the unfit chickens, it is charged that | they were prepared in unclean sur roundings by barefoot persons in an unscreened room and shipped partially cleaned.
