Time Pieces Again to Be Advanced an Hour On
 Sunday, March the 30m


 One week from next Sunday, or on Sunday, March 30, at o'clock in the morning, all watches and clocks are to be advanced one hour in conformity to the rules and regulations of the day light saving law, which congress neglected, failed and refused to repeal at it's late lamented session.
 There is but one sort of timepiece that is exempted from the provisions of the bill, and that is the sun-dial which of course, cannot be altered Old Sol, of course, will go his rounds as usual, and no earthly law can change his schedule, so those who tell the time of day by the sun will find themselves just an hour late after Sunday, next week.
 Under the law passed in March 1918 and which has not been repealed, as many had supposed and more had hop es, the daylight" saving program re- mains in effect until the last Sunday in October at 2 a. m., when the time pieces are all turned back an hour and astronomical time is again the standard.

 UNDER THE NEW SYSTEM
County Agent George M. Johnston Left With Car of Hogs Wednesday;
 Government Marketing System.

County Agent George M. Johnson left Wednesday for Kansas City With the first car of hogs to be shipped from this county under the new government cooperative marketing system. Other counties, which have been marketing under this system have been receiv- ing remarkable good returns and it is hoped that this first shipment will turn out we'll so that the system may be firmly established in this section and result in the growing of more hogs for the market Under this plan a man with only few hogs, or even one hog, may take advantage of the car-lot ship ment and receive the top of the market based on the quality of his hog or hogs. Each lot of hogs is given 8 special mark so that it may be dis tinguished from the others in the car when placed on sale.
 Those who made up the car and the number of hogs shipped by each were as follows:
 H. B. Wilson, 25; c. s. Cobb, 16; D. l.. Baggarly, 3; B. s. Pickett, 3; P. o. Beck, 1; A. T. Collins, 8; J. c. San- derson, 3; w. 1T. Locke, 3. The fol- lowing were taken on at Winthrop: c. l.. Sloup 1; Earnest Fahrni, z; Henry Pond, 10; J. C.. Clay, q; Edgar Davis, z; Mrs. Ada Crenshaw, 1.

Plan Announced Last
January

Victory Liberty Loan quotas will not
be affected by Thrift Stamp sales as
planned by the Treasury Department

last January by Lewis B. Franklin,
director of war savings, that wherever
Thrift Stamp quotas were exceeded
the amount of oyersubscription would
be taken from the coming loan quota
and that if the Thrift Stamp quotas
were not reached the deficiency would
be added to the loan quota.

tory Loan quotas in accordance with
