1st one is Probably a Scott #405, just a bit faded is all. the 2nd is what is known as a duplex cancel, very common and the 3rd is most likely a Yellow / Green Scott's 632. You're looking for a Ruby in a Mountain of Rocks, keep hunting :)
China clay papers were 1908 - 1909. Scott 330's labeled as bluish paper and Some philatelists believe that China clay stamps are a myth, as examination of some purported examples failed to find any clay in the composition of the paper.
First stamp is Scott 525 offset and the date stamp is 1919 witha crooked slug. The Milwaukee 3 left cancel was only used 1919-20. The cancel is from Universal model DT3-300.
The last numeral in the year is "9" but it is cocked a little so that it cuts part of it off to look like a 3. Also notice the heavy inking on the right side and top right of the numeral where the right side was striking harder.
