The Sioux City Journal editorially
expresses the following opinion Of the
action of South Dakota in the Third
Liberty Loan:

kota is to give her a mark to shoot at.

the second Liberty loan effort South

SAVE THE LAYING HENS

The U. S. Food Administration rule
prohibiting the sale of hens or pullets
for slaughter terminated April Goth,
therefore, every farmer and poultry
raiser in South Dakota should retain
all healthy hens, which will continue
to lay up to time of moult, and to mar
ket only old hens and non-producers
at this time, as sale of large number
of fowls at this time would tend to
lower the prices considerably.
The hens that lay are the hens that
pay, therefore, keep all hens that are
laying now. Ed. /. Hayes,

Cooke county speakers and work
ers are coming, 100 strong, to assist
in the great work. They win arrive
at the courthouse at II a. m. and be
met by our citizens and entertained
for dinner, and return to the court
house at ] p. m, and be assigned for
speaking engagements.
An interesting program has been
arranged for night meeting in the
courthouse at 8 p. m, and it is hoped
that each and every auxiliary in the
county will have representatives at
this meeting.
While this is renewal drive, there
should be some new members gained
at every point.
The president of each auxiliary is
expected to make the report to the
night meeting or designate some one
to represent the auxiliary, but the
secretary of each auxiliary is re-
quested to make the financial report
at some other time and not bring
the money taken in to this night
meeting.
Some of the auxiliaries have no
members due for renewal" and are
therefore not on the list for speak
ing engagements, but we hope that
each auxiliary will ask its members
to attend the closest meeting to them
and assist in the work. All new or
renewal members can be listed with
any auxiliary in the county, no mat
ter where they attend.
