NEW FOOD LAWS ARE
IN EFFECT AT ELKO

Frank Middleton. Elko county
food administrator, believes in do
Ing things exactly as the govern
ment wants them done.
The new food laws provide for
not more than six pounds of wheat
products per person per month. II
you buy bread this is to be deduct
ed from the six pounds. Middleton
is enforcing this law.
Three Pounds of Sugar.
Also the government says three
pounds of sugar per person per
month. Middleton says that's all they
get In Elko county.
The government has arranged a
card system for handling this affair
and Middleton is using 1t. There is
a wheat products card. When one
buys loaf of bread or q pound
or SO Of -four the weight of these
pounds are punched by the clerk.
CARD system In Effect.
The card system is going to be
a good thing for the patriotic mer-
chant who Is bent on obeying all
the war measures. He simply
punches out the number of pounds
Of wheat products or sugar and
when the monthly card IL used up
no more -four or sugar for the
holder.
Every family head In Elko county
must report to Middleton p. d. q.
just how many are In the family.
No report, no cards.
Also Middleton is finding out how
much -four and sugar Is boarded
in his county. That's what Uncle
Sam wants and Middleton believes
in obeying orders.
Prof. ]. R. Smith, Lincoln coun-
TVS food administrator, will no
doubt, issue similar orders shortly.
The Record will be glad to give
them publicity.
And, by the way, Elko is not
the only county that ia keeping an
eye on food consumption. There
are many others.
A conscientious and fearless food
administrator is not going to be
very popular with few but the
great majority is going to uphold
him. The press Of the country is
lined up solid with these food ad-
ministrators who hew to the line
and show no favors.

ELECTRIC LIGHTS FOR
CALIENTE PROPOSED

Caliente will, no doubt, have
electric lighted streets within a
short time. Also the stores and
residences will have electric lights,
if present plans do not miscarry.
The Salt Lake Route, the Record
is told, agrees to furnish the nee
essary Juice" to the county for
5000 a month.
The county will establish rates
for stores and residences sufficient
to cover cost of the street lights.
Caliente's water supply is fur
nished by the Salt Lake Route
The county pays $100 a month for
the water which is then sold to the
consumers. 1t Is believed that the
same collector could take care af
the light collections without much
extra expense to the county.

Gentle reader, had you heard Of
the great Indian uprising at Phoebe?
Last week daily papers all over
the United States printed scarehead
stories to the effect that the Piute,
Gcshuto and Shoshone Indians had
met near Phoebe and planned an
uprising to extend all the way up to
Elko-some 800 miles.
Ye gods and little fishes!

have been supplied with arms
and poison by white man,
suspected of being German or
of having pro-German SYM
pathies, and melted to attack
Indian agents and settlers.
"The plot Is said to have
been revealed by gathering OF
Indians near Phoebe few days
ago and at which plans for the
raid were made"
And this is not all. Judge Charles
Lee Horsey received telegram
Saturday from some one in authority
asking him IL he wanted troops
gatling guns or submarines to quel
the disturbance.
The Judge came very near kick
ing the bucket" when he read thai
telegram. 1t was the first news hi

the Indian population OF Phoebe
consists of one squaw and her two
little kids-one pappose which she
carries around on ner back. She Il

With the American Troops in
France, Nov. 11.--Airplanes swung
in circles above the little chapel be-
hind the firing line during the funeral
Of the American aviator, Lieutenant

tors in the filing squadrons permitted
their airplanes to circle lower as his
body was lowered into the grave near
little cemetery not far behind tho
trenches
Lieutenant Thaw was killed wheI
his plane developed engine trouble
two thousand feet from the ground
and fell, striking telephone wires and
tipping over before it struck the
ground.
Every aviator in Lieutenant Thaw's
squadron who could obtain leave OF
absence attended his funeral. His
mother and sister who were in Paris
at the time of the accident, also were
present.
A solidphalanx of aviators from
Thaws squadron preceded the body
as 1t was borne fro mthe chapel by
six American aviators. Serried ranks
of aviation officers and men followed.
The burial was in a cemetery where
lies the body Of Major Raoul Luf-
berry, another noted American aviator.
At the freshly turned grave stood a
group of mechanics holding upright
the propeller of Thaw's Inflated ma
chine as taps were sounded and the

THE FARMERS HAPPY LOT

There is no need for the people Of
Florida to send out Of the State fol
anything they need in the way Of
food supplies. Almost anything
which is produced elsewhere may be
produced on the Florida farm.
In times such as we are now going
through, the Florida farmer should
regard himself as being truly fortu.
nate In the towns and cities food
of all kinds is higher than even many
old men have ever known 1t to be.
Yet the Florida farmer is not dis.
turbed on this account. In fact he
is making a greater profit on his pro-
duce than he every made Def re,
while at the same time the high
prices for food amounts to nothing to
him because he raises all he con-
sumes-if nc is true farmer.
He can have fresh eggs for break
fast at little or no cost for them
while his friend in town must pay
rs cents dozen for them, or do with
out them.
He has an abundance of milk while
his city friend has to buy 1t at ~
cents a quart.
He has plenty of fresh Jersey but
ter Just from the churning while the
town people have to pay 70 cents a
pound for 1t.
He has an abundance Of sugar,
made at little cost on his farm, while
the city folk are limited to two
pounds per month.
He is provided by his farm with

To America Is conceded the weight
that forced the bonds Of tyranny
from millions of people; let America
set apart November II as q day Of
thanksgiving and general rejoicing.
November has long been the month
in which thanksgiving day has
been observed, designated each year
by federal and state executives; this
then would be but the fixing of the
date, permanently and moving the
celebration a few days forward. 1t
could. still be called Thanksgiving
day, for such 1t was, all over the
world.
Unquestionably, behind the boiss
ferrous, noisy, unusual and often
seemingly senseless ways Of giving
vent to the feelings, observed on the
eleventh day of November, 1918,
there was Thanksgiving" in every
true heart-for the news that had
