Wboopinr Cough.

In this disease 1t is important that
the cough be kept loose and expector-

by giving Chamberlain's Cough REM

liquify the tough mucus, making 1t
easier to expectorate and renders the;
fits of coughing less frequent and legs
severe. 1t has been used in many
epidemics of this disease with the best
results. 1t contains no codeine or
other narcotic, -

NEW PRODUCE FIRM

The Benson Produce Co., have
disposed of their branch house
at this place to j. H. White & Co.
of Chicago. Mr.. P. j. Combiths
of the new firm was here Monday
and completed the transaction.
Abner Markle, who has been the
efficient manager of this Benson
house for the past two years has
accepted the position as manager
here for the new firm and will re-
main here. Mr.. Markle has made
"a large acquaintance among the
farmers of this section during his
business career here and has Sc
cured a splendid patronage by his
courteous and square dealings
and the new company are to be
congratulated ON securing his
services, and also the producer
that he is to remain in charge
here.
j. H. White & Co. have been
established inChicago since 1861
and are one of the largest produce
firms in the United States today,
and come here highly recon-
mended by the largest banks and
financial agents of Chicago, as to
their business dealings and finan-
cial standing.
This company has purchased
several produce stations in this
section and their method of ship
ping i'm carload lots, made up at
centeral points from their houses
makes cheaper transportation
to their market, than by express
and this will enable them to pay
the producer bigger prices.

Slackers Appearing

We understand several young
fellows who have been "conspicu-

the war have put in appearance.
Our advice to these fellows is to
beat it and beat it while beating
is good, or their relatives will
find their lifeless bodies dangling
at the end of a rope from the
branch of a lonesome tree on the
Dakota prairie some fine morn
ing, if threats that we have learn
ed are carried out. These slack
ers are not going to be tolerated
by Roberts county people.

Death of Former sisseton Man

Lars Anderson was born in
Sweden Dec. 13, 1885, and came
to America in 1880, settling in
st. Paul where he resided for
fifteen years. In 1894 he came to
South Dakota where he resided
until a few years ago when he
sold his place here and returned
to st. Paul to make his home and
where he passed away on March
2nd, 1919.
He was the youngest of a
family of twelve children and one
sister survives him. A son, Axel
Anderson and a daughter Mrs.
August Bloomquist Of Sisseton
also survive him, four daughters
having proceeded him to the
Great Beyond. He is also MOURN
ed by twelve grand children and
four great grandchildren.
Altho Mr.. Anderson was of
retiring nature, he made and held
the friendship of many people
who mourn his loss. He held the
regard and esteem of the COM
munity and was most honorable
in all his dealings. He was asde-.
voted husband and fond father,
always placing the comforts of
his family before his own.
The funeral took place at the
Mission Tabernacle in st. Paul
on March 5th and interment was
made in the Union Cemetery.

The New Victory Loan Drive

The 5th Liberty Loan Drive,
which will be known as the VIC
tory Liberty Loan, will, accord
ing to a statement maie on Mar.
18th by Carter Glass, Secretary
of the Treasury, be opened on
Monday, April 21st, will last for
three weeks, and will end on Sat-
urday, May 10th.
This is expected to be the last
liberty loan undertaken by the
Government. The amount of the
loan and the rate of interest have
not yet been announced by the
Treasury Department.
This issue of Government lib
erty securities will consist of
short-term notes, rather than
long-termed bonds, such as were
issued during the frs. four Lib
erty Loan drives.
Secretary Glass has autlic,lty,
in the laws under which the last
three liberty bond issues were
sold, to offer for sale additional
liberty bonds up to S5,O22,51S,-
600; however, the rate OF inter-
est on such bonds is limited by
law to AZ per cent. More ,vcr,
they would be subject 20 super
taxes and profit taxes, and it is
thought that they would not be
likely to prove a real success, con
sequently the issuance of short
term notes will be resorted TO
during the coming drive.
Under the Bond Act of March
3, 1919, recently passed by Con-
gress, the Secretary of the Treas
Try has been given authority 70
issue short-term notes to the
amount of 81, 900, ,OOO,ODO. He al
so has authority to make the
conditions and rate OF interest
more attractive than the 4L4 per
Cent long tern. bonds. Regarding
this matter, Secretary Glass
says: II am led to adopt the plan
of issuing short-term notes rAth-
er than long-term bonds largely
because of the fact that believe
that short tesol ssue will main
tain price at above par after the
campsigR is concluded far more
readily than would a longer term
issue. | have not yet reached a
conclusion as to the rate of in
terest and the exemptions from
taxation which these notes will
bear because this decision must
be based on existing conditions
Immediately prior to the opening
of the campaign. | take this op-
portunity to repeat what | have
already stated, that it is the in
tention of the Treasury Depart
ment to carry on the same kind
of intensive campaign for distr;-
button as heretofore. 1t would he
most unfortunate occurrence it
the people of the United States
failed to take these notes, thus
placing the burden of the SUBJ
scriptions on the banks. | there
fore ask the American people
once again to give their support
to their government in order that
this great loan may be made an
overwhelming success by the
widest possible distribution"
