are many reasons for initiation
Most Important has been the fact
that initiation comes when the
supply OF money exceeds the sup
PITY Of goods.

The above can occur either hy

or o. an increase IN the clrcu-

Contamination
Will Delay Delivery

DELIVERIES OF FARM stored COM
modify Credit Corp. loan grain which
does not meet the sanitation tolerances
of the Food and Drug Administration
will be delayed until official handling
arrangements can be made
This is in cooperation with the cur
rent drive to insure that only wheat
which is fit for human consumption
goes into food channels, according to
Leo S. KoIstad, Montana State Agricul-
tural Sterilization and Conservation
administrative officer
ASC offices are now advising pro-
ducers that any communicating filth
should be SKINNED off the top of a
bin before the wheat is hauled for de-
livery to CCC under loan or purchase
agreement. This will prevent mixing
the contaminated material throughout
the bin. Under Food and Drug Admin
istratiOn regulations, any wheat which
contains more than two rodent pellets
per pint or the equivalent amount of
other filth, or 2 per cent weevil dam
aged kernels by weight is not accept
able for food use and thus it is evil
dent that contamination on top of the
bin mixed through the entire lot might
cause contamination of the entire bin.
County ASC officers are pointing out
to producers that delivery instructions
are being issued to producers as rapidly
nc lob L.rA ,0%
any delivery instruction will be auto
matically cancelled if the grain offered
at an elevator or bin site exceeds the
Food and Drug Administration toler-
ances. Producers will be required to
continue storing their grain until such
time as CCC can accurately determine
how much contaminated grain there is
in an area and how it can be handled.
Wheat producers who have requested
reseal of 1854 wheat will be able to Sc
cure a reseal only if the grain is clean
enough to meet the current sanitation
requirements In addition, producers
must sign a statement agreeing that if
the wheat does not meet sanitation re-
uuirements now in effect at the time the
wheat is delivered, it will be sold for
or other non-human uses and the set
Element value will be the sales price.
Agricultural Sterilization and Conser-
vatione officials point out that wheat of
the 1855 crop delivered to CCC under
loan or purchase agreement will have
to meet sanation requirements. Pro
ducers will be required to sign state
ment similar to the one being offered
on 1854 reseal wheat, and purchase
wheat, offered at the time
1855 settlements are made, will not be
accepted unless it meets the standards
covering loan grain.

Notice

Starting December l, 1855, it
will be necessary to adopt a
different system in regard to
fires outside the City limits.
Heretofore Richland county has
betrayed the expenses of the Sid
ney Volunteer Fire Department
on all country fire calls. They
are no longer able to do this.
In the future anyone having a
fire OUTIDE the City limits and
who summons the fire department
will be expected to pay the costs
of the fire call. We shall keep
this cost as low as possible.

Over ZOO Hear
Speak
AT Moose Club

Congressman Orvin B. Flare
was the guest speaker at a tur-
key dinner meeting held Tuesday
evening at the Moose Lodge hall
here, under the sponsorship of
the local lodge of the Loyal Order
Of Moose.
About 200 people were served
turkey with all the "fixins'' at the
$50 dinner which preceded the
talk.
Seated at the speakers table
were numerous past governors of
the local lodge with their wives,
and Senator Donald Nutter, who
introduced Congressman Flare.
Speaking in a strictly non-po-
litical vein he expressed his ap-
probation of the honor of serving
as a congressman, and told some
thing of his experiences in Wash
ington, adding that he had learn
ed much of value to him in his
work, through having been a
member of the Moose, and was
proud to be one.
Asking the question "Why Be
A Moose?" he answered it saying
that it gave an opportunity "To
serve ones fellow man, with ones
fellow men for the good of all
mankind, and added that in so
doing one pays the rent for the
space one occupies in a Chris
tan community.
He stated that not enough peo-
pie realize the Importance of the
present hour. 1t is now possible
to construct a hydrogen bomb in
a cobalt shell which could con-
ceivably wipe out all forms of
plant or animal life, but this can
not happen, because of the con-
cept of the brotherhood of man.,
on which the Moose is based.
He stated that each citizen
carries his share of the load of
world civilization and added that
America needs more good citi-
zens, more disciples able to think,
work, and contribute; that Moose
members contribute to America
and to themselves, and that thru
fellowship and the brotherhood
of man we gain character and
backbone, and that character is
the only thing we can't take with
us.
During the earliest time, man
merely lived, then learned to live
and let others live, and finally
now to live and help live. He
closed by urging that we keep
America a land where genera
tons can be raised in freedom
and that we be prepared to fight
and even to die, rather than to
live on others.
Following the dinner a class Of
10 members was initiated in the
lodge rooms.
Arrangements for the dinner
were made by Art Antonson,
manager Of the Moose club.
