It stated that Grangeville had subscribed | about $100,000 of its quota of| $125,000 and “Cottonwood $5000 of its quota of $67,000.” Perhaps | |this was a mistake in setting the! | type, as at that time Cottonwood | had subscribed about $55,000, | while our quota was only $50,650. If it was nota mistake in type- setting, then the fool-killer has a_ job in Grangeville. Evidently | |this correspondent has “run jamuck” and needs “looking aft- er.” In Tuesday’s Spokesman- Review he says that the people of | Winona have already subscribed for $86,000 worth of bonds. It should have read $8,700. All over the United States there | are a lot of “grain hogs’ who are| hoarding and holding their wheat | and other grain, hoping to be able | jto sell at fabulous prices. The} government has grown tired coax- | |ing these “hogs” to let loose and | sell their grain while the country | is in such desperate straits for wheat for our army as well as our jallies. In order to encourage them to let loose, the government now announces that all grain be- ing held unnecessarily after the 15th of next month will be taken over and confiscated by the Food | Administration. The Americans’ style of fight- | ing excites the admiration of the | world. It is noticed that in the!
