WINTER SHOW TO FEATURE FAT
eARRoWs AND CORN
SAMPLES.
BREEDING SWINE NOT TO
BE INCLUDED THIS YEAR
Grains Other Than Corn, Not to BE
IncIuded-consress is Put on War
Basis to Keep Orsanizat'on Alive
Making Search For Suitable Places
to Show Exhibits.

The second Marshalltown Swine ana
Corn Congress, which is to be he'o
Dec. IS, 10 and 20. is to be limited this
wear to a fat barrow and corn show,
with possible a division for home econ
omics. The determination TO limit the
swine division only to fat barrows ana
10 corn was reached at a meeting OF
the officers and directors held at the
Marshalltown Club Thursday nightly
this change breeding swine will not be
shown, neither will samples of grains
other than corn.
This decision was reached as war
measure, both to keep the congress
alive. and to exert all the effort and
expense on the two chief features,
swine for slaughter. and corn. Where
last winter $3.50 was offered in prem
.ums for breeding swine. fat barrows,
corn and other cereals and home
economies this year 5000 will be offered
for fat barrows and altogether ii is
estimated that $3.50 will have to be
raised for the whole show.
All Barrows to Be Sold.
Another very important change in
the management of the show is that all
tat barrows entered for exhibition will
be sold for slaughter to the highest
bidder at the close Of the show. With
this provision il will be allowable for
exhibitors 10 enter barrows that have
not been raccinate3 for cholera. Such
rule could not be enforced il breed
ing swine were shown. and it is be-
lieved that the change will induce many
more exhibitors to show fat barrows
than did so last winter.
In connection with the barrow show
there will be series of lectures and
demonstrations on swine breeding and
production by experts from Iowa State
College.
Must Find Location.
One of the problems that confronts
the managers is the securing Of suit
able places. preferably in the uptown
district. where the shows may be held
1t is hoped to be able to get two such
places close together. one for the swine
and another for the corn.
The executive committee that is in
charge Of the congress this year is
composed of c.. G. Mason. J. NJ. Doug
lass II. -. OoiilNS, Il. A r TlChe ana W.

STAMP DRIVE COMING.
County's Quota Can Not Be Met With.
out AlIottino and ColIectipo

OUt NilOttihS ana SoHectin9.
Marshalltown and several township
precincts are going to, be required to
put on drive in November for cash
sales of war savings stamps unless
sales pick up Immediately. If this is
done allotments will be made by pre-
cinct committees. just as is done in
all liberty loan drives. and people will
be required to invest in enough war
stamps at once to bring their total
purchases for the year up to their full
allotments.
At the. close Of business Thursday
total sales for this county were only
s512,s54 net. after deducting all thrift
stamps exchanged for war savings
stamps. This leaves $147026 in stamps
to be sold before Dec 1, when the first
year of the war savings drive closes.
Owing to the fact that the per capita
basis of apportioning the stamp allot-
ments within the county throws nearly
half Of the county burden upon the city
of Marshalltown. most Of the shortage
in sales lies within the city. Many of
the country precincts have already gone
over the top because their per capita
! ability to buy is greater than that of a
| wage working population in town. hut
people are not putting enough of their
war wages into savings stamps.
Sales in September amounted to
s3s.129.s0 for the county. With the
schools going and people speeding up,
they may reduce the net deficiency to
an even 100000 by Nov. 1. but to sell
800, 900 of war stamps in the one
month of November will call for
doubling the monthly average, and it
can not be done unless everybody now
invests in all the stamps he promised
to buy and about as many more be-
sides. The war savings stamps are
the only war support which have been
allowed to drift according to peoples
free will In November the war service
committees will be out telling each
citizen how much he should buy in
order to put Marshall county over the
top and preserve her war service record
unbroken by single failure.
