Mr. Sondergaard, who has scored but
ter in all parts of the country, stated
that he had never before scored butter
where there were so few low scoring
samples and no real high ones. As TO
defects, he said that the samples general
ly showed lack of pasteurization, the use
of good starter and proper methods OF
rpening. The salt in many instances
was too high and not evenly distributed.
1t seemed as if the raw material was
superior to the workmanship and meth
DDS of handling the cream after it reached
the creamery. 1t was fair lot for this
time of year.
Mr.. Tolstrup said that from market
ing point of view, number of samples
carried too much salt, that some showed
notifies and few were too poor in body
to sell to best advantage. Generally
speaking, the samples lacked the fine
flavor and quick aroma which buyers so

The churning records had not been ex-

after these statements were written. The
score of this entry, the only one which
was pasteurized, was 94.5,
The average score of all creamery

good for the time of year since the
weather is becoming warmer and many
creameries have not yet changed to the
more frequent deliveries customary dur
ing the warmer weather. Some samples,
however, showed effects of this infre-

MUST.KEEP HENS FOR CHEAP EGGS.
Department of Agriculture Urges Flocks

The sbest opportunity for cheap eggs
for city families during the war, says
a recent publication of the United States
department, OF agriculture, lies in keep
ing enough hens in the backyard, where
they can be supported principally on
table. The keeping Of hens in back
yards is described as being an economic
opportunity for city families and at the
same time an essential part of the cam
paign for increasing poultry production.

GREENHOUSES MUST cURTAIL
In Use of Coal During May and Close
Next Winter.

Boston, May 3.-owners of private
green houses in New England were or
dered yesterday by James j. Storrow,
district fuel administrator, to curtail the
use of coal during May and to arrange to
close such places next winter.
I'VE have asked the householder TO
put out his furnace and kitchen range
fires on MAY ! in order TO save coal for
the reserve necessary TO tide US over

BAKER WANTS NO
LIMIT TO ARMY
Says Only Point Is Ability
to Equip and Trans
port Soldiers
THIS is THE ONLY
RESTRICTION
Secretary of War Does Not
Discuss Size of Army
Before Committee

Washington. MAY Secretary Baker
at hearing yesterday before the House
military affairs committee, in coniiden-
tial session, asked that Congress grant
unlimited power for the creation of an
army of whatever size necessary for the
prosecution of the war lie told the COM
mittee that il would be ill-advised to re-
strict the number of men TO be utilized
and that the size Of the army should be
increased in the discretion of the gov
eminent, as transportation and equip
ment facilities warrant.
Mr.. Baker indicated he would submit
n proposed measure. probably as an
amendment TO the draft law, TO grant
the unlimited authority asked. Under
the existing draft law, as construed by
Chairman Dent of the military commit
Zee and others, there is authority for
use OF 100000 men under draft, Mr..
Dent Wednesday introduced bill to
authorize draft total of 100000 men,
which, with volunteers already in the
service would make an ultimate maxi
mum strength OF 100000 men.
Secretary Baker was questioned by the
committee regarding his views TO in
creasing the draft age. He said he was
studying the subject and had made no
decision.
The House military committee will
Immediately resume consideration of the
annual army appropriation bill and Mr.
Bakers idea is that it sail provide only
for the number Immediately foreseen.
Indications are that it will carry pro-
vision for equipment, transportation, pay
nj nj ar al
100000 men, as part of specific pro-
gram, but as furtherance of blanket
authority plan involving use of all or
part of the funds appropriated and sup
Elemental appropriations later on as
their need may become apparent.
Under the new classification scheme |
there are understood to be 100000 men |
Immediately available for active military |
service in Glass /. That estimate is |
passed on the returns of numerous states |
and the law of average. 1t excludes all |
men rated as fit only for limited special
service, all delinquents. slated for i'm
mediate induction into Glass when APP
pretended and all the so-caled medical
cases, the men who will be fit for active
service after operations or medical treat
ment to correct minor physical defects.
Behind that, also, stand the men vino
have reached twenty-one years since the
draft act was passed. and who will be
brought in under pending amendments.
Probably the total of electives in Glass
! will prove to be 100000 men when
the definite figures are available.
The number of men scheduled to be
called to the colors this month under
the selective service act has been raised
10 1000. Last month 100000 were mo-
bilized. At this rate half of the $780,
300 which the department, before the
German drive was launched, had planned
10 call during the present year, will have
been called out in two months.

enough hens to supply eggs for the
household The number of hens needed
for that purpose is twice the number of
persons to be supplied. Hence, the small
est flock TO be considered consists of four
hens. Where hens are kept only to fur
nish eggs for the table no male bird is
needed
A coop for flock of four hens should
have a floor area of about 20 square feet
or about five feet per hen. For larger
focks the space allowed per bird may
be little less, because the space is used
in common and each bird has the use
of all the coop except what her COM
panions actually occupy. For the ordi-
nary flock Of 10 to Is hens, the space
allowed should be about four square
feet.

MATHEW JAMES DIES
SUDDENLY AT CHICAGO

Mathew James, brother of Dave
and Rhys James, who reside east of
Circle, died suddenly of pneumonia at
Chicago, last Monday morning. He
was here two weeks ago for a visit
with his brothers before he should be
called into military service. The first
they knew of his illness was Saturday
when they received message stating
that he was seriously ill at Chicago.
1t is not known whether he had been
drafted or not at the time of his death.
The remains will be buried there.
Deceased was twenty-five years of
age and from what we can learn, was
an exemplary young man of clean
habits and a kindly disposition. His
His death comes as asevere blow not
only to the two brothers here and
one in Havre, this state, but also to
a widowed mother, four sisters and
five brothers in Wales. Three bro
theirs are now in the British army
where they have served since 1915.

The Republican Central Committee
says that the present County Attorney
should be reelected, because he has
been a successful prosecutor. During
the last term of Court, out of eleven
criminal cases set for trial he secured
two convictions. And one of the con-
victions was obtained with the assist
ance of Attorney Geo. w. Farr, of
Miles City,and the other with the as
sistance of Attorney F. P. Leiper of
GIendive. In one of the cases he
lost he was assisted by the latter at
torney. DO YOU CALL THAT Sue
CESSFUL? Why not have county
attorney who can, without one regu-
lar hired deputy and then the county
hiring special prosecutors, prosecute
a case himself? He can do no worse
and the chances are that he would do
better. Vote for ]. A. Slattery for
County Attorney, and save this extra
expense for special prosecutors.
They cost money and mean higher
taxes and the farmers pay the taxes.
We, are surprised at one of the rea-
sons advanced by the Republican,
Central Committee as a reason why
George Twible should be reelected.
Its paid advertisement, in referring
to his connection with the War Board,
says "He has spent year and half
becoming acquainted with this work.
Would it not be most unfortunate to
make a changer" Do the voters of
Dawson County want to continue in
office man, who has required year
and a half to become acquainted with
his work If so, vote for Twible, but,
if the voters want an aggressive, fear
less, efficient officer, vote for A. H.
Holland.
.Likewise:n his personal letter to
the voters George Twible says he is
too buoy to campaign. We do not
know about this, but how about his
deputies? Ask yourself about your
local deputy. Has he been campaign
ing? The officee deputy has been
mailing letters to the voters for the
past month.
No voter should vote for man
simply because he is now in office. !
In voting for Clerk and Recorder
cast your ballot for the man who is
better qualified for the office. Amy
one knows that ]. A. Rainey is an eff
fcient, capable, courteous man, and
possesses the qualifications for this
office better than any ather man In
the county. Vote for j. A. Rainey
aofor a most efficient Clerk and Re
corder.
