MAKE HEAVY CUTS IN

Large Reduction Has Been
Made Recently, the Com
mission Reports.

The United States Civil Service Com
mission has issued it's semi-annual
statement regarding the extent of the
Federal executive civil service and re-
ductions therein. as follows:
The Federal executives civil force
in the District of Columbia was re-
duced by 1904 employees during the
year ended July 81. 1921, and by 3S,-
sos during the period from November
IL, 1918, to July 81. 1921. The reduc
ton throughout the United States, in
cluding the District OF Columbia, was
ss,634 for the year ended July 81, 1921,
and more than 100000 during the
period from November IL, 1918, TO
July 81, 1921. The reductions con-
tinue steadily, but now, OF course,
more slowly.
On June 80, 1916, there were 3a.259
employees In the District OF Columbia
and 4o0,539 I'm branches outside the
District Of Columbia. making the
total on that date 4S9,79s. on No
vember IL. 1918, at the height OF the
war expansion. the number of EN-.
iployees in the District of Columbia
was ll7,760 Owing TO rapid fiuctua'
tions at distant places of employment
il was found impracticable to compil,
strictly accurate figures for the fore,

ing the war period. AS near as car
be estimated, the force outside III,

approximately 100000 on Novembe
IL, 1918. This is a conservative es

the number in the District of Colum

CAN YOU BEAT TT?

When G. f.. Peterson of the Spauld-
ing Farm, adjoining the city, brought
in four mangels last Thursday morn
ing, the largest Of which weighed 16
pounds, they were considered to be
''some mangels'' until p. E. Anderson,
of Vega, sent in two real mangels Tues
day afternoon, the largest of which
weighed % pounds. Mangels make ex-
cellent feed for live stock and there
should be a small patch on every farm.
G.. F. Peterson also brought in head
of cabbage raised on the Spaulding
Farm, which tipped the scales at Is
pounds. LII -.-..'
I That our soil is capable of producing
the best quality potatoes is shown by
four Irish Cobblers raised by Frank

ADA AND WARREN
PLAY TIE GAME
Local High School to Meet Stephen
High School Here On
Friday

Last Saturday afternoon the football
season was opened in Warren. Ada and
Warren eIdeayOred to Guido each other
Oh the gridiron but at the end OF the
contest the score stood six and six. The
game was interesting considering the
fact that it was the first game played
by each eleven.
In the first quarter the Warren eleven
ball went into play until the first and
only touchdown made by the locals. the
Ada eleven did not get chance to show
what they could do with the ball. The
locals in this quarter plunged thru the
line at will and made their downs every
time. After getting the ball on the Ada
thirty yard lime a fake play was run
thru with perfection and Quistgard. the
Warren quarterback, made nice run
and crossed the goal line. The work OF
Lindstrand; the local fullback, was eff
fective. he going thru the Ada line for
big gains whenever he was. called on.
Lindstarnd was taken out at the end
of the first half on accountJof severity
bruisingg his arm. @aS* :.S:...5 r?
Z he Atist Gle en- i1i;i,ie tlse..s touch
down in the third period. Because of
some question as to the number Of
downs the Ada eleven had the head
linesman came onto the field and tried
to stop the play: The referee had blown
his whistle but the umpire had not, so
the play went through. Some of the
Warren boys on hearing the whistle pay
ed no attention to the play. The Ada
eleven very nicely performed a forward
pass and crossed the line, thus tieing
| the score.
Coach Johnson's men were given
some hard rubs which will keep several
of the boys off the field for the rest OF
| the season. Among the boys that will
be out of the game for the rest Of the
season are Quistgard and Campion.
| The last game scheduled for the home
grounds will be played next Friday at
| ternoon at 80. Stephen will be down
here to tussel with the local high school
eleven. Everybody is urged to come out
! and help the boys as the financial end

EXCEL TOWNSHIP
TAKES BLUE RIBBON

w. F. Tullar, local weed inspector,
states that Excel township has the
cleanest road sides of any township in
his territory with Holt township close
second
The townships III his district are
placed in regard to clean roads in the
following or iefs Excel. ssrst. HE t. sec
ond:;; McCrea, third; Comstock. fourth
Viking, fifth Newfolden, sixth; Marsh
Grove, seventh and New Solum, eighth.
Only small portion Of that part Of
East Valley in his district was worked
by the weed inspector, owing to too
much territory and lack of time, but
from what was covered it appears that
said town would not have been long
ways from the bottom. Excel township
has more acres of clover and tame hay
than NeWfOlden, Marsh Grove and New
Solum cobined. One good farmer in
Newfolden township speaking Of clover,
said: "No, it won't grow here, if they
don't plant it,. If some of the thistle
polluted townships would invest in a
few hundred pounds of sweet clover
seed. which is now only { or cents per;
pound, and SOW broadcast along ditch
banks and roadsides, in less than two
years time one, would find all sweet
clover instead of sow thistle.
The actual farmer is doing all he can
to hold the weeds down: but the most,
infested fields are nine times out of ten
rented land and vacant farms owned by
non-residents, spectators and various
land companies. These farms are gen
orally rented for only one year, subject
to sale and both renter and landlord are
trying to get the most out of it for the
least labor and expense. There are
renters that would ruin a good farm
and landlords that would ruin good
renter If the two are left to go on as
they have in the past, then what?
