Jasper CMitj EipcM to Put i gutter HIRm to Bonds MAKETOWNSHIPALLOTMENTS According to <te Assessed Valuation of Each asd Otter Conditions Existing 'llmiub. t TJames H. Chapman, chairman of the Liberty loan bond selling for Jasper county, has made the following allotments for each township in the county for the sale of the Third Liberty loan bond issue, which starts today, using as a basis for an equitable division of the >240,000 he has alloted for Jasper county the assessed valuation of each town-1 ship. In townships where there | are towns, the town is ineluded in the unit, making thirteen units for Jasper county. While this bond issue is to be for >3,000,M0.000. the government will accept all over subscriptions, wainr m hoped that Jasper county will exceed its allotment and that the over-subseriptioHS the country over will pofeibly be double the minimum issue. The government will give a handsome flag to each unit subscribing for its allotment as fixed by the county chairman. Following is the allotment for Jasper county as fixed by Mr. Chapman: Barkley township—Assessed valuation, >1.313,000; allotment. >15,000. Gillam —Valuation. >771,000; allotment, >B.OOO.

In making the allotments Mr. Chapman also took into consideration the fart that some of the townships had quite a good many nonresident land owners and other conditions to make the allotments gg fair as possible. It is hoped that every township will "go over the top” and thus win one of the flags ruentioned elsewhere in this article.
