1ED t CLOUD, NKltAIIA, OKIES' "T-- l Mechanics Needed 1. According to a statement made by Mnjor Murk L. lrolnnil, Quarter, master Corp, V. S. A , who IV I" com. maud of the extensive mitomobilo re pair shops at Port Sum Houston, Texas, the groat need In the present war Is motor transportation and tin greatest problem arising In connection with motor transportation Is to keep it HVHlIablo at all times for service. In order to accomplish this the govern, inent Is In actual need of hundreds of automobile mechanics and men pos sessing qualifications milking thorn dculrnblo In and about automobile, re pair industries The repair tdiopn lit Fort Sam VIonston are designated by the war dp. tmituient to take enro of the motor transportation south of Kansas and i west of Ihcj Missouri, which menus that the groat number of motor driven vehicles involved In service wi.hin the confine of the territory tuontloned are dependent upon the repair shops tt Felt Sam Houston for overhauls. 6. Tin education and training of mon foi this class of service with the Hiiny is one of the principal factots of the shops located at . Fort Sum Hous ton Adequate Instruction Is given the men to qualify for servico with mechanical units for sendee in this country and abroad. A large percen tage of Ameiienns In this section of the country are somewhat surprised to know that1 such an organization exists at Fort Sam Houston, where men are dally being received for training In the particular duties connected with motors and motor transportation, i 1. Thcro exists nt this tlmo urgent need of men who have had experience in the following trades: Auto Repairer Mechanical Knginoor ltlacksmith ltattery Hepaltnien Carpenter Mec Auto Repairer Harness Maker Mec. Wood Worker Painter Motor Cycle Repairer Plumber Helper, Harness Tire Repairer Sheet Metal Worker Tool Itcpalier Helper Auto Uep ilrer Trimmer, Auto Inspector, Motor Welder Machine Tool Iuspee. Machinist Machinist Helper Wheelwright Magneto Repairer Cook .1. Captain Ned Horton, Q. M U. C, Executive ofllcor of Quartermaster Mechanical Repair Shop. No. .'Ml, at Fort Sam Houston, who is well-known in and about the Urowu&villu district, when interviewed stated that the op. portunlties open to men for service In this- shop are beyond comprehension of civilians. While It is well known (hut the Navy has had in operation training school, for a number of years past, the, army has never hefoio operat ed training institutions such as the one in existence at Fort Sam Houston, for the reason th.it the lequlrements of the army In the past have been tide quute'j met by adjunctive departments attached to corps or regiments, in the pri'nt emiTgi'ncy it has been recog nised by tlie higher oillcials that the methods pursued in tho past could no longer meet the exigencies of the ser vice and as a consequence the great rvpixlr shop?- have sprung into exist Vnce. with the end in view of providing mechanical education and training for snltable men U The government has been ex tremely generous In the apportionment of non.eouintKsioued crudes, and a 1 iree nereentaco of the ollieers now serving with the shops have been pro unotcd to commissioned officers froni Vue ranks of enlisted personnel. An instance ot advancement is Lieutenant Ira A. Tedder, well known in tho Urowusvilie dlrtrlut. Lieut. Tedder ottered his services to the government us an enlisted man; within a short time his ability was and is recognized and he was promoted to llrst liouten nt in the Quartermaster Corps nnd Is sit this time in charge of one of the principal departments of the shops. The instance cited is but one of many where men of energy and ability have been promoted to administrative posi tions in the shops. 7 Any man, whether In the draft nge or otherwise, who has had export unco along the lines abovo Indicated, Is requested to write without delay to the Commanding Olllccr of Quarter master Mechanics Repair Shop No. ,101. Fort Sam Houston, Texas, who will furnish full particulars concern, ing pay, government allowances, and other subject matter Indicating oppor Untitles that are opou to men possess ing quallllcatlons making them desira ble for duty with this organization.

Produce Infertile Eggs Now is the time Unit lias been sug gested us the date to confine or segre gate tho male bird fjrom the Hock If ho is of no value as a breeder. Dispose of him on the market or else can hlin by the cold-pack method. The date has been taken from the poultry question naire cards that huvo been .sent out to the poultry raisers of the state. The reason for doing this Is to pro duce Infertile eggs as there is a loss In tho stato of Nebraska of '.'.1 por cent of the eggs laid during tho summer months, that are unfit for lnimnn con sumption. The fertile eggs will ger minate at u temperature above 03 de grees, thus spoiling the eggs for mark, ot purposes, especially during tho sum mer months when tho teniperatiiro gets around 09 and 100 degrees, It does not take long for tho fertilo egg to -noil, wht'ieas the infertile egg can stand a temperature of lu'J degrees I without deterioration. i After taking the male birds away fruni the Hocks the eggs will be fer tile for at loast ten days or two weeks , and will allow you to hatch chickbout j until the last week in June, for sum mer and fall fries Do not lie muled by the Idea that it is necessary to keep the male birds with tho thick to in crease ogg production. Collect your oggs twice a day. Keep them In a cool place away fiom contaminating odors. Keep your nests clean and the litter on your tloor clean and your eggs will be clean. Provide one nest for every four hens. Market your eggs at least twico a weok. Uy producing Infertile eggs you are doing your bit toward Increasing tho supply of food stulls. Notice to Parents or Guardians The parent or guardian of any pupil desiring freu high school tuition for tho coming year should mako uppllcu. tlon to tho county superintendent on or before t lie Hi ht day of June.
