On the other hand the Herald has the state

II will be observed that this list contains only

SUGAR FOR THE RANCHERS
New Order Affecting People Living A
Distance From The Markets

There has been much discus
sion of modification of food regu.
lations in this state to enable
ranchers living west of the Mis-
souri, river and far from town to
purchase sugar in quantities.
Charles N. Herreid of Aber-
deem federal food administrator
for South Dakota has announced
a modification of general orders
on this subject. Ranchers in this
locality may take such comfort
from the exception in their favor
as they can. 1t will be remem-
bered that town and city custom
ers are limited to from three to
five pounds of sugar at a time
and general rural and farm GUS
mers to from five to ten pounds.
Here is the new order: Provid-
ed, west of the Missouri river,
excepting Gregory county and
all towns and villages, sugar may
be sold to farm and ranch custo-
mers residing within twenty coo
miles from a store in not more
than twenty-five (25) pound

JACKSON COUNTY MAN ARRESTED

Word reached Kadoka last week
that deputy United States Mar
shall had gone to Belvidere and
placed c. H. Bittings, who resides
north of that place under arrest
charged with, threatening the
life of President Wilson. At the
preliminary hearing which was
held before U. S. Commissioner
Reeves. Mr.. Bittings waived ex-
animation and was placed under
bonds in the amount of $5OO0.0O
to appear at the next term of
federal court to be held at Dead
wood.
Bittings will be remembered in
Philip as the man who held one
end of the famous "ring-tailed
COW" case which was in all the
courts of Stanley county ten
years ago, developing as it went
along a wealth of humor and an
accumulation of costs seldom
known in this state. Gus Stor-
mer was the other party to the
suit, and the jury finally gave
him title and possession of the
very ordinary ring-tailed COW.
The total expenditures of the
two parties exceeded seven hun
dred dollars, the heavy end of
which fell upon Billings.

was one of Stoermer's attorneys

Leslie A. Bistodeau of Webster,
one of the smallest in stature of
of the thousands of men accepted
in the Aberdeen district, left last
night for Jefferson barracks, St.
Louis. Bistodeau weighed nine
ty-three pounds and on tip toes
he was five feet, two inches tall.
Irwin A. Lins of Philip, a stu
dent and one of the tallest men
accepted here for the United

ment today. He is six feet, three
and a half inches tall and tips the
scales at 16l pounds.-From an

COO miles, not more than fifty
(50) pound quantities. Provid-
ed further: These exceptions
are subject to the law against
boarding" All of which goes
to show that the government is
determined that every household
shall have an equal chance to get
what food it requires but intends
to prevent anyone from having
more than his or her share.
That share will be determined,
say the federal agents, chiefly in
the conscience of the individual.
So there you are.
