Record of pig fattening and farm activity at George C. Miller ranch
In June 1916 and again in June 1917, twenty five small pigs were fattened at the George C. Miller ranch in Thayne. The pigs enjoyed free range, water, and a steady supply of bran, shorts, and whey. The operation produced a grand champion Lincoln county fair pig weighing 542 pounds and yielded varied returns by weight and price. The piece also lists costs, potential profits, and notes local community news and notices from Merna and surrounding areas.

Victory bread rules permit bakers to label products as victory
Bakers may advertise victory bread if it contains up to eighty percent wheat flour, with the remaining twenty percent from approved substitutes such as corn flour, corn meal, barley flour, oat meal, rice flour, rice sour, and potato flour. Rye flour can be used until March 3, after which it will be restricted alongside wheat as flour shipments aid the Allies. Graham or whole wheat bread may also be called victory bread.
