The quota for the Northwest division is nearly $2,000,000. One hundred million will be needed and every cent of every dollar will be spent in war relief work. E. H. Dewey, state chairman for Ida- ho, has plans for the eampaign almost completed. The slogan is, “Be Ready.” Have your little fund stowed away and be ready to make a liberal contribution on the opening day of the campaign. By following this system, Idaho could be the first state “over the top” in the campaign. The money received by the Red Cross is used in saving lives and alleviating suffering. For many months the world has been spend- ing over one hundred million dol- lars a day for the destruction of life and property. Who is he then who would refuse to contribute to the necessary $100,000,000 to be used for the next year for the gal- lant wounded boys fighting your battles in a foreign land? “Be Ready” and not only let Idaho go “over the top,” but give the Gem State a new record in the number of subscribers contributing, as well as for the amount subscribed. Card of Thanks Prof. R. A. Shattuck desires in this manner to thank the kind friends for their assistance and sympathy during the sickness and death of his wife, whose burial took place at Cottonwood Friday. Also for the beautiful floral offer- ings from the Cottonwood band and other friends.

In order to comply with the wishes of the Food Administration, and considering it a patriotic duty, we would advise all our customers to return any excess flour on hand, and we will be pleased to allow regular market prices for same, either in cash or trade. “Would also advise you to bring your wheat, barley or any other grain you may have to us, we will be glad to exchange it or pay you more than twice as much for it as we would charge you for millfeed, which in most cases gives you better results than your whole grain.
