The Spring Roundup Of the attle
now ranging in Lincoln County star
ed yesterday, the ususal date for this
important work is the first of May
at latest, but owing to the lateneSS
of the season and the poor condition
of the stock at that date the work
was deferred to as late a date az
possible.
Locally the roundup will COM
mence at Hiko then working South
to Kane Springs Valley. representa-
tives from all over the County will
be present to look after their inter
ests. From Kane Springs Valley

taking in the Cherry Creek Valley.
Coal Valley and the Schaeffer range.
1t is to be hoped that this important

ports Of loss to be exaggerated and
many cattlemen believe that high

HOW TO INVEST
SMALL SAVINGS

Postmaster ]. w. Christian con-
tinues to impress upon the people of
Lincoln County the advantages of
Treasury Savings Certificates and
Postal Savings as an investment as
well as the best method of encourag-
ing persons of small income to form
the habits of thrift and saving. The
post office under this system, said
financial sage who made an invest
igation of the new U. S. Government
Savings System, will become the
savings bank Of the wage Garner and
the person of small salary. In many
of the large cities, and in factory
towns, and especially in many of the
smaller towns in the rural districts,
it is very inconvenient for earners of
a weekly wage to reach bank after
receiving their pay, but post office
Is usually available When the peo-
pie fully understand that their post
offices offer them modern banking
facilities they will avail themselves
of this modern savings system which
Is run for their own advantage and
at no cost to them Postal Savings
and Treasury Savings Certificates
offer an unusual opportunity, and
the post office is ready to render
these banking facilities in an effic-
lent manner.
Postmaster Christian is pleased
with the suggestion of the post office
as the wage earners' savings bank,
and intends to make it that in fact,
as long as people who are its patrons
show disposition to save. He calls
especial attention to the fact that
the Government is in this savings
movement because the officials have
become convinced that only through
the Government can nationwide
campaign for savings be inaugurate6
and made successful. 1.-The Govern
ment." he said, affords an oppor
tunity for everybody to save. ANY
person with ten cents can open
savings account with the Govern
ment With ten cents postal sav
ings stamp can be bought at the pos
office. When tenstamps have beer
purchased and affixed to a posta
savings card they can be exchanged
for a 81 interest bearing postal sav
ings certificate. Postal savings Ger
tificates to the amountof $4,000 ma.
be purchased by any one person
Small investors can also buy Treas
ury Savings Stamps at 81 each.
They do not draw interest, but whel
20 stamps have been acquired the
can be exchanged for $25 Treasur
Savings Certificate. These certif
icates are issued in denomination
of $25 500 and $1,000, and sold TO
$40, $50, and $500. They pay41-
