STICK TO YOUR TOWN
(Valdez Prispector)


 If in diversity we must come to our home mer chants then why should they not have outside patronage He may sell his goods a shade higher than outside firms but his expenses are also higher He is contributing to the upkeep of the town. the schools the lights the sidewalks, the city officers salaries, and in various other ways He is the man who makes the church fairs possible and who helps in every worthy enterprise
 The average small town merchant knows his customers better than city merchant could ever hope to- He has entrance to their homes as a guest attends their weddings. their social functions their funerals. He knows their children by sight and he recognizes their wants and carries stock accordingly
 He knows what they afford to buy and his guarantee is behind every purchase His customers have the privilege of seeing the goods before they purchase. and if they are unsatisfactory he will re place them return the money
 He is the man who congratuates you upon the new arrivals and who mourns with you when one of your number takes his last long journey to that bourne from whence no traveller returns
 You cannot do without your home merchant so why not stick to him. especially now when he needs your help? Don't force him of business and then sympahize with him because you have helped him fail. By all pulling together we can make better times, and add greatly to towns population
 Help your town, your community and your coun try by keeping your business as much at home as possible during these strenuous times

Government Not Dispos-
ed to Disturb Labor Stu
alton During Planting
MAY BE CALLED
IN INSTALLMENTS
Recruits Will Be Absorbed
Into War Machine at Rate
of 100000 Monthly
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, Feb. 20.-Secretary
Baker authorized the statement to-
day that no date had been selected
for the beginning of the second draft.
Various estimates have placed the
time between March 1 and June 1.
These are declared to be entirely
guesses.
The governments disposition not
to disturb the labor situation, parti-
cularly on farms at the planting
season, is one Of the factors entering
into the situation.
The provost marshal generals Of
fee, it is understood, is disinclined TO
go ahead with the second draft until
congress has perfected the law by
pending amendments to change the
basis Of apportionment and to
authorize the President to call into
the military service men skilled in
industry and agriculture regardless
of previous classification.
The remaining increments of the
first draft will begin to move for
ward to the camps beginning this
week.
1t is probable that next month local
boards may be asked to forward
small increments necessary to replace
men going overseas, but the expected
summons Of half million will be
later.
Plans for the second draft as now
under consideration include calling
100000 a month until the second
quota is complete. In that way of1-.
cials expect to avoid much of the
confusion which accompanied the
first call. The men will report in q
steady stream and be assimilated in
to the military machine before the
next lot is received.
1t has been definitely settled that
the first cOntingents will be used to
fill vacancies in national guard di-
visions caused by the withdrawal of
men for the organization of special
and technical units. Similar 'Yacan-
cies in the national army divisions
will have been filed by that time
from the final increment of the first
draft.
