I havH drawn roughly the ro au.ts of tho military elVort of the United States for a period of less than ton months. I do not believe that any impartial man would say that this effort is now completed, but I declare that any impartial man must admit its wonderful extension and splendid achieve ments. Andre Tardieu, French High Commissioner to tin United Statos, in a speech Feb. Cth. "50-50" is tho latest ruling on the use of wheat. Tho soldiers in Franco must and will be fed no matter if it does cause a little inconvenience on this stilo of tho water. At present there is a shortage of flour substitutes in Richland, but a supply is expect ed in at any lime. A postcard found in a captured German trench told tho British just what they needed to know of a certain army. A careless re mark dropped in a crowtl may furnish a spy with tho missing link in a long chain. Be careful what you say and whore you say it spies aro everywhere. ED SIRIkNG IN FRANK February 13, 1018. C. E. Thorp, Editor, Dour Sir and Brother: Please allow me space in your paper to thf.nk the Ilo'rnd Missionary So ciety for so kindly remombeu'ng me with a Christmas prosent. It was pretty badly mashed up, but it was ail goo I ju3t the same. It was packed to not leave the U.S. but it went farther than was ex pected as I didn't get it until Jan 28th, and I was in France. It certainly makes us fellows fi-el good to ge,t a package frgm home. I cannot write much about my experiences as I have been in the hospital wilji measles and pneu monia ever since I've been here. Haven't seen much but expect to get out soon as spring is here and everything is gren. Thanking you for the space am. hoping to see all my Eagle Valle friends in the near future, I re main, with best regards to all, Yours in F. 0. ai.d B., Privoto W. E.

Combination Live Stock Sale The combination sale of dairy stock next Monday in Richlunu offers one of tho best opportun ity yet presented in Eafcle Val ley to secure first class cattle on time at your own price. Dairy products ars bringing big prices, tl.e future promises a ready mar ket with even higher prices; dairy cattle will be in demand for years to come. Eugene Brown is compelled to sell, so offers seven head of cows 1 full-blood Jerseys and 3 grade erspys. Every cow made him money when butterfat was low in price; with the present outlook tho cattle will pay for themselves in less than a year. J. A. Davis having sold his farm last fall has no place to keep his herd and is forced to sell nine head, incluoing ono full blood Jersey cow, three grade Jerseys, four Durhams and the registered Jersey bull Mitty's Foxy M7711 -without question as good a herd header as can be found in Baker county. Better Join Now Interest in the Home Guard is increasing, several new members enlisting last Saturday night, and it is expected that a full quota will soon be enrolled. Guns will be forthcoming as soon as the organization is completed and an effort is being made to get the county to furnish uniforms. Don't wait for others, come in Saturday night and sign up. Show our boys who are in service that not all those "back homo" are slnckers. Tho training will do you good and will set an example of patriotism that might help tho "other fellow."

Because victory is not purchasable we ,must vnrk for it and, if need be, die for it Dollars can work for vic tory only in so far as they are converted into labor and materials. A dollar hoarded is a slacker; a dollar wasted is a traitor; a dollar saved is a patriot For a hoarded dollar represents idle power; a wasted dollar represents wasted power; a dollar invested in the United States Government represents power saved, labor saved, ma terials saved it represents power, labor and materials in action, on the firing line, over the top. And more it represents reserve power, energy stored, purchasing power conserved for its owner to use later on. Buy War Savings Stamps. You can buy a United States Thrift Stamp for 25 cents.

Bean, who left Tuesday with their children for Lebanon, were tendered a reception at tho K. P. ball on .Monday evening. A large num ber were present to wish the couple abundant success in their new location. During the year Mr. Bean has bepii pnstor of the Christian church of Richland, he has done a wonderful lot of work for good in the community, and although the greater part of the congrega tion would liked to have had him remain here longer, for certain reasons he accepted the pastorate at Lebanon. Effort is being made to secure another pastor, meanwhile the new church building will be com pleted and Mr. Bean will probably return for its dedication. Dr. M. D. Fleming, optometrist of Boise, will make his third visit to Richland on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, March 22, 23 and 24.
