Z and scientific manner IN which Au
straha is meeting the problem o
, 'repatriating the men who are fight
ing in Eusepe for the liberties of tn,
commonwealth was described in of
ricial dispatches today to the Bureau
of Foreign and Domestic Commerce
Much interest was aroused by the
.lispatchese. as foreshadowing what
the United States must do when the
tide of wounded and incapacitated
men begins to flow westward to this
country
Two principles were enunciated in
the formulation of the Australian
system OF repatriation: First, that
the true purposeof repatriation is to
secure the establishment of re-
turned soldiers in the industrial life
Of the community to the fullest eX
tent that circumstances will permit,
and second. that, as a soldier aban-
doned his civil calling to serve the
state. it is the duty of the state to
sustain him until an opportunity for
such re-establishment is assured.
Sustenance. therefore. will be paid
to men who. after discharge from the
army. are seeking employment or are
being trained in technical schools.
The amounts will vary according to
the number Of dependents. the maxi
mum payable being 3 pounds 6 shil-
lincs, or approximately S16.5O.
Centralized authority is obtained
through the creation Of Ministry of
Repatriation. while decentralized ad-
is assured by the organ

charged soldiers and one a repre-

STOVES CAUSES ALARM.
Fire Truck Called to Webster City
Implenent 'Company's Build.
ing Saturday.

An alarm Of fire was turned in
about II o'clock Saturday through
the central Office calling the fire de-
partmenta to the new Webster City
Implement Company's building. How
ever investigation revealed no fire
burning id the building, outside OF
eight stqvesl in the basement, where
an attemptswas being made to drive
out the frost, preparatory to putting
down cement floor.
Six of the eight stoves are open
burners in which coke is used and
the smoke from these was rolling
out the front entrance, way of the
building. A passerby, seeing this,
reported 1t, to the telephone Office
and an alarm was turned in. w. n
Frazier responded with the truck,
no whistle being blown.
In this instance the alarm was UNI
necessary, but in nine cases out OF
ten, smoke from any building could
mean nothing less than a fire some
where inside and to be neglected
would be counting a serious finan-
cial loss for someone.

Il - = : I'll / !. 2 . i 4i
A testing station has been estab-

the city hall for the testing Of seed
corn for the farmers of Hamilton
county by the Hamilton County
Farm Bureau. Active operation will
begin tomorrow.
: The purpose is to test old corn out
OF the cribs, that the farmers OF this
county may be assured of seed that
will grow! The testing plant will be
operated until planting time. or until
every farmer in the county has been
supplied with good seed corn.
Some Old Corn.
Considerable old corn has been
secured and orders have already
been placed for a hundred and fifty
bushels Of seed. It is expected that
farmers who have good corn will
bring it in to the station and those
who are without seed will in this
manner be supplied. IS
The securing of sufficient seed
corn for next seasons planting is Z
more vital problem than is generally
realized. J. w. Coverdale Of Iowa

Delco Lighting Plants.

Ross Mesecher and Dan Goehring,
Jr., members of the local Cadillac
firm, have taken the Hamilton county
agency for the Delco lighting plant for
farm use
Several of these plants have already
been sold to Hamilton county farmers.
The plants can be set in a four foot
square and, because they are so small
and easy to move, the Hamilton county
agents intend installing one on an
automobile and travelling about the
county demonstrating to the farmers.
With the convenience of plant of
this kind the farm housewife can
operate her iron and cream separator
while the farmer can use it in the
operation of the water plant and fan
ming mill.
The agency for the Delco lighting
plant has never been handled by any
firm Or individual in Hamilton county
before and the Cadillac garage men
anticipate many sales in the farming
community
