Position to Handle Big Amount of Work.

At the time the National For cats were originally created, it was impossible to avoid the in clusion of email tracts of land suitable forairicultural purposes These "tracts were scattered throughout the interior of the forests, but there were no legal means of utilizing the name for homestead purposes. However the Secretary of Agriculture finally secured the passage of the Act of June 11, 1900, commonly called the Forest Homestead Act This is the only act providing for securing lands within the National Forests for homestead or any form of ayjmltural use, and each tract IT limited in extent to 150 acres.

Federal trade commission takes action in case of big mail order ' house, charges unfair competition. 1 Washiigton, June 30th. Sears Roebuck & Co, Chicago mail order house, of which Julius Rosen-wal- d is president, has been ordered by the federal trade commission to cease certain unfair methods of competition, it was announced today. Chief of the complaints by the commission, which were all admitted by the corporation was the practice of advertising sugar for sale at prices less than its competitors. The corporation "owned up to the fact that during the latter half of 191G it received $780,000 in receipts from the sale of sugar, but that the same sales were in reality made at a loss of $1,000 This loss, however, was made up through the fact that sugar purchases were included in "combination sales." on which a profit was made. The practices ordered stopped by the commission were: Circulating catalogues containing advertisements of sugar for sale wherein it is falsely represented that the company is able to sell sugar at a lower price than competitors.

Paul Hansen, son of Mr. and Mrs. P. M. Hansen, of Levan, enlisted in the Aviation Service last October, and ha3 made a brilliant record in this branch of the service, having advanced with a rapidity rarely attained in this line of work. He is said to have shown exceptional ability in the handling of the flying machine, and on one occasion remained in the air for a period of seventeen hours, which was a record feat for one so young in the work. He has been stationed at Lake Charles, Louisiana and some time ago contracted malarial fever which is so common in that section of the country. This led to other complications to which he succumbed. He was 22 years of age at the time of his death. The body is expected to arrive in Levan today when luneral services will be held. Miss Mattie Cazier entertained Saturday evening in honor of Mrs. W.
