FARMERS IRE TOLD THATSUCC CCESSOF THIS
SEC1I0Nb< NoS0N NADYANCE0FDAIRYING
TO EXTEND NAVAL MILITIA
Japt. Eaton Plans to Place Divisions
on Shores of All Large Minnesota
Lakes-Praises Bemidji.
LOCAL RESERVES DRILL TONIGHT

Officers of Bemidji's division OF
the state naval militia have been in
formed that Commander Guy A.
Eaton of Duluth is much pleased
with the progress which has been
made here since the muster in Of a
month ago. It is expected that sew
eral staff officers will visit here soon
for the purpose Of inspecting the di-
vision.
There will be drill in the City hall
this evening at o'clock and all re-
serves have been ordered to report.
Lieut.. Barker will have command.
Commander Eaton plans to have
naval training stations established
on the shores of all large Minnesota
lakes, thereby providing opportuni-
ties for naval training that will give
the landlubber everything he would
get on sea voyage, except sea legs
and immunity from seasickness.
When members of the seven divi-
sions of Minnesota Naval reserves go
to Detroit in August for the annual
maneuvers and special study, two
new stations will be taken into the
fold.
There are now five divisions at Du-
luth, one at Pine City and one at Be-
midi. Lindstrom and White Bear
soon will have reserve stations equip
ped and ready to give instructions
in naval matters. This will give the
state nearly 1000 men who would
know what to do if they were sud-
denly called to battleship's crew.
According to Mr. Eaton and other
officers, a man can learn sea life on
land and the routine work aboard a
war vessel if efficiently taught at the
stations. They look for the time
when the preliminary training for
the navy will be done in the reserves
The naval reserves are regarded by
the United States naval department,
which supports the organization, as
an important source of trained men
in time of war. ..,...
These reserve stations in the United
States Have no connection with the
retired naval reserves, who also are
organized. The retired list is COM
posed of men who have actually serv-
ed three or more years in the navy.
The state reserves occupy the same
relation to the navy as does the mill
tia to the regular army.

SOCIAL LIFE IMPORTANT FACTOR
Saturday Meeting Attended by More
Than One Hundred-Interesting
Talks Are Given.

That the social side of farm life
is as important to the success of a
farmer as is the daily toll behind
the plow or harrow, was brought out
in talk given the Bemidji Farmers
club by Rev. S. w. Scott Saturday
afternoon at the farm home of Daniel
Gray, president of the organization
The attendance of the club was a
record-breaker, there being present
nearly 100 men, women and children.
The meeting was conducted by the
clubs efficient secretary, H. G. Gray,
who presided in most able manner,
being ready with appropriate COM
ment after every speaker on the pro-
gram.
"These meetings make life worth
living on the farm in these sections
for some people, especially the Wo-
men, who seldom get outside of their
own homestead" said Mr.. Scott.
''They are educational, entertaining
and beneficial and are looked forward
to by many members. God has laid
down social laws, as we'll as natural
laws, and we should be guided by
them. 1t is our duty to our Creator,
and without following His laws, we
cannot meet with success"
Bemidji Men Talk.
Preceding Rev. Scott, the chair
man Of the meeting called on Messrs.
c. e. Battles, w. L. Brooks and e.
H. Denu for short remarks. Several
business propositions which are now
we'll under way were again explained
and renewed interest being taken in
silo building, uniform crop raising,
attendance in club membership and
cooperation in general reviewed.
The chairman asked for volunteers
to make short remarks. There being
none, he announced that he would
to volunteer Among his favorites
were Edward Paulsen, who halls
from the county Of Todd, the land Of
cream and milk Mr.. Paulson was
asked to tell something Of creamery
operations there which he did in
most interesting manner. The crowd
cried for more when he had con-
cluded his talk He told how easy
it was to begin, how easy it was to
succeed, how easy it was to make
money for the farmer, but how nee
essary it was to stick together
"Stick by your creamery" said Mr..
PaulsOn, "Whether you can get more
for your butter by selling direct to
the consumer or not. If I could get
40 cents a pound for dairy butter,
and my creamery was paying me only
20 cents a pound, l would stick by
my creamery. Why? Because
know that it would pay in the end.
I know that the my creamery was
partly responsible IN bringing about
the advance in price and that it will
pay more just as soon as it can This
is the only way it can be made sue
cess"
All Want to Farm.
Mr.. Paulson has six boys, all Of
whom want to be farmers. This is
what brought him to what he thinks
is bound to become one of the great
est dairying countries in the world,
the farm lands in the vicinity of Be-
midi He bought 400 acres and is
looking for more. ''The success of

JEALOUSY AROUSED
AMONG OFFICIALS
Sudden Ascendancy Of Lloyd George
as Potential Savior of England is
Cause of Thinly Yelled Attacks.
ARE MAKING POLITICAL CAPITAL
Haldane Reveals Fact That George
Was Member of Committee Which
Framed Munition Plan.
BY J. w. T. MASON.

New York, July 12.-Jealousie in
the British government over the sud-
tden ascendancy of Lloyd George as
the potential savior of the empire are
the cause of thinly yelled attacks
now being made on the minister of
munitions. Some of England's states
men are intent on making political
capital for themselves out of the war
and they do, not regard Lloyd
Georges prestige with any kindness.
This is why Lord Haldane, the late
lord chancellor, has gone out of his
way to reveal the fact that minis
terial committee to increase the out
put of munitions was formed last Oc-
tober and among the members was
Lloyd George himself. Lord Haldane
suggests the measure now being ta-
ken to speed up the production of war
stores ought to have been begun last
autumn. :
Nine Months Behind. :.
The inference which the ex-lord
chancellor desires to create is that
LloydGeorge is nine months behind
hand with his plans to save the en-
pire. Lord Haldan is Premier AS
quith's closest political and personal
friend. 1t is impossible to believe
that the attack on Lloyd-George
would have been made except with
Mr.. Asquith's tacit approval, if not
with his direct knowledge.
Suggestions have recently been
made in England that Lloyd-George
is destined to GUST Mr.. Asquith. as
prime minister. Doubtless that has
been discussed by Lord Haldane and
Mr.. Asquith, with the result that an
effort has now been made to demon
strate that Lloyd-George was as
blind as the war Office, earlier in the
war, to the urgent need for more am
mu0lllOn. Ese4g&@ ~. -
Kitchener Was Chairman.
Lord Kitchener, however, was
chairman of the governments muni-
tions committee last October and he
was then at the height of his prestige
and power. He was virtual dictator
of England and could not have been
overridden by Lloyd-George or any
one else. His responsibility was alb
solute.
The failure he made on the job Is
not yet fully understood by English
men, though it is by the Germans.
The attacks on Lord Kitchener by
those who knew his limitations OF
executive ability caused the ammuni-
Etion scarcity are now taking the form
of a flank movement. Maj. Gen. Sir
Stanley Won Donop, as master gen
eral of ordnance, was Kitchener's s
chief subordinate in the munitions
bureau of the war Office.
The demand for Won Donop's re-
moval is an attempt to fasten respon-
sibility by inference on Kitchener,
who outlined the policy which Won
Donop followed. But, Won Donop's
retirement would be triumph for
Lloyd-George, who is believed to de-
sire that his own hands be streng-
thened through the infliction of pub
lie punishment on the higher in CON-
petents at the war Office. Rival poll
ticians don't want this to happen and
so England still remains in the mud.
