No CAUSE FOR WISH
TO FORGET IS CROP
Commissioner of Agriculture
Flint Comments on Change Of
Appreciate Week Date

Commissioner of Agriculture and
Labor Flint, who has been planning
on a corn and alfalfa show in every
county in the state during November,
has received a letter from the press
committee Of the North Dakota Press
association and the North Dakota De-
velopment league, advising that at the
meeting held in Grand Forks last
week. January 81 to % was named
as appreciation Week." in place OF
the November dates adopted last year.
The later dates were selected, the
letter advises, because the founders OF
appreciation Week" wanted to get
away from the 1916 crop"
Takes Exception
The commissioner takes exceptions
to that closing sentence. He seems
to reason why North Dakota as a
whole should desire. to "get away from
the 1916 CROP" which has been en-
inently satisfactory so far as the bulk
Of the state is concerned.
IL. A. Tayis of IMandan, head of the
associated banks, tells me that there
is ten percent more money on de-
posit in these institutions than there
was year ago." said Mr.. Flint. "The
amount on deposit in Bismarck banks
is more than ten percent in excess
of that year ago.
NAT Prentice, drug salesman, who
makes this entire territory, advises
that this is the best year he has ever
had. Henry Hoist, travelling for a
clothing house, says the same thing
Our prosperity applies equally to
everyone except those concerned d.
rectly in the handling of the CROP"
Point in Evidence
As a point in evidence, and it Is but
one in a multitude, might be quoted
the fact that Fort Eerthold farmer
who rented land at dollar the acre
from its Indian owners this year har'
vested $35 worth of fax seed to the
acre. OF course, Fort Berthold is
somewhat of an exception, as it has
practically cornered the potato mark
ct. but it is undoubtedly true that
there is more money in circulation
throughout central and western Da.
kota than ever before. ..a..

UNDERPAiD EMPLOYEES.

Thousands Of workers on the rail-
roads of the Northwest are joining
the movement OF the committee OF
employees known as the Eighty Per
Cent" now securing petitions to Con.
gress for an investigation OF the
wages and working conditions of all
railway employees before pay increas-
es are put into effect as provided by
the Adamson law. Representatives
OF employees, other than the twenty
per cent now included in the provl-
sions Of the Adamson act, making a
tour in the interest of the eighty per
cent not coming under the provisions
OF the act declare that the future vel
fare of all railway workers is at
stake.
Under the Adamson law an increase
would go to train service employees
that would preclude for years to come
wage increases for those workers to
which there is no reference made in
the act, and for that reason the meas
uro as it now reads is opposed by
about 100000 employees. Even on
the present basis Of pay, trainmen
and enginemen, many Of whom do
not require the years of specialized
training, nor work daily the long
hours that fall to the lot Of mechan-
les, trackmen, clerks, ETC., draw great
er compensation. To grant the ad.
vances that would accrue under tho
act recently passed will still further
tend to keep down the wages Of 9th.
er classes, say the Eighty Per Cent"
representatives.

Congress at the coming short session
that the Eighty Per Cent" workers
are now extending their campaign to
all parts of the country. Their ei-
forts have been successful to a mark.

awakening Of employees not taken
care Of in the Adamson act to the
deplorable conditions which will be
brought about should this so-called

THE MOST POPULAR BOOK.

THE MOST POPULAR BOOK.
The one best seller is the Bible. It
has been translated into more than
100 languages and it has an annual
circulation of about 100000 books,
testaments and portions.
How many thousands of books
about the Bible have been written no
man knows, and the average reader
does not require the information, be.
cause the Eible, whether it is read
as literature or as a religious guide,
carries its meaning directly to US un-
trained fellows, as we'll as to the
student and preacher.
As the days grow shorter and the
evenings longer. the question of what
to read this winter perplexes many
who like to make their leisure profit
able.
Then-why not read the Bible? In
it there is versifcation which later
poets have not equaled, stirring mar
rative of great adventure, biography
Of great men, the word which COM
forts, the thought which inspires, and
a system of ethics so perfect that
man has not yet comprised it.
Because it fits into the experience
Of all, because it applies to the con.
ditions of every age and every land,
the Bible is recognized as the worlds
leading classic. No man can claim
to be educated unless he has studied
the Bible.
These are hard years for the sensi-
tive. The agony of Europe sears the
mind. And something of the sadness
CT Europe spreads out and encom-
passes the peoples at the four corners
Of the earth.
Men talk less about the war than
they did in its beginning, but they
feel its horrors, its wastefulness, its
hopelessness far more. And when the
literature Of the war proves too ap-
palling and they seek relief in books
of another kind, they require the So
lace and stability of the classic au-
thor rather than the excitement of
the new and transient writer.
In this mood they can appreciate
the Bible with understanding, for it
is the one book wherein for several
thousands of years the spirit of man
has found light, and nourishment, and
an Interpreting response to whatever
is deepest in him"
