The Bureau of War Risk Insurance
wishes to emphasize the Importance
to service men of one of the provi-
sions of the War Risk Insurance Act
upon tile fulfillment Of which may
depend the validity of their claim to
compensation under the Act.
The War Risk Insurance Act pro-
vides that:
mo compensation shall be payable
for death or disability which does not
occur prior to or within one year af-
ter discharge or resignation from the
service, except that where, after a
medical examination made pursuant
to regulations, at the time of dis
charge or resignation from the SER
vice, or within such reasonable time
thereafter, not exceeding one year, as
may be allowed by regulations, a GER
titicate has been obtained from the
director to the effect that the injured
person at the time of his discharge or
resignation was suffering from injury
likely to result in death or disabili-
ty."
Many discharged men are not
familiar with or are inclined to disre-
gard this provision of law and are
allowing their rights Hereunder to
lapse.
Request for the certificate men
toned above should be made to the
Chief Medical Advisor. Bureau of

Judge the potatoes. Entries must be
made before l | a. m. on day of show
One-half bushel will constitute a
show sample. The committee re-
serves the right to use any or all of
the potatoes shown for state exhib-

The Society offers the following
suggestions in selecting entries:
dig by hand. Dry in sun. Brush
with soft brush. Never wash. Keep
in dark to avoid discoloration. When
ready to bring to the show wrap ey-
cry potato in paper and pack in layers
with papers or other soft material.
Try to have potatoes typical of the
variety shown. Each potato Of any
one sample should be as nearlNal
in size and shape as possible Do not
bring any potato with the least mar
or injury, scab or black scurf. 1t
takes time to do all this but it is
worth WHILE"
