Noted Hereford Men to Speak.

O. S. Bell, secretary of the newly formed Jasper-Newton Counties Hereford Association, reports that he has secured three of the biggest Hereford men in the country to address the Association meeting to be held at the office of the county agent next Saturday afternoon. “ W. H. Ambler, polled Hereford breeder of Winamac, will be one of the speakers. Joseph Hepp, also of Pulaski county and owner of a good herd of horned Herefords, will also be present. Col. Fred Reppert, the greatest livestock auctioneer in the country and an ardent admirer of the Herefords, will be one of the big attractions. All Hereford men are invited to be present. Beginning Dec. 1, all parcel post packages requiring postage of 25c or more must bear an internal revenue stamp, as provided in the war tax bill. The postoffice department announced Monday that regular postage stamps will not be valid for this payment. Special internal revenue stamps will be furnished. The'tax rate will be 1c for each 25c postage or part thereof above 25c.
