GOOD NEWS FOR DAKOTA.

Fargo residents have for years
looked forward longingly to the time
when the vast beds of Ignite in this
state would offer a real solution to the
fuel problem.
Experiments now being conducted at
Scranton, N. D., will be watched with
deepest interest. A new process for
briquetting Ignite coal is being put
into operation there. Disappoint-
ments have been too numerous for
any of the older residents of the state
to become overly enthusiastic over
this oft tried experiment, but the re-
ports coming from Scranton are most
encouraging. The briquetting plant
erected there is turning out 100 bril-
quets weighing a pound apiece, every
minute, or three tons an hour. This
is but one unit of several to be erect
ed, and J. w. Parmley, president of
the South Dakota Development league
is authority for the statement that the
process is g. success and that Dako-
ta's fuel problem is solved. Dakota
could have no better news from an
economic standpoint, if the statement
proves to be true.

MODERN AMAzoNs.

Unthinkable as it seems, it is being
limited that before the troops of the
allies march down Inter Den Linden,
they will have to face organized mass
es OF women soldiers.
If browning horror were needed in
the war, it would be the mobilization
Of the women Of Germany.
The German war lord did not hesi-
tate to ravage Belgium; he closed his
eyes while the Turks exterminated
millions of Armenians in the bloodiest
slaughter Of the worlds history; he
ordered the submarine warfare; he
made raids on unfortified cities of
England killing women and children;
he enslaved and deported the men OF
Belgium. Why should he hesitate to
make cannon fodder for the women of
Germany IL the supply Of men is in
sufficient?
It is reported that women are al-
ready being used in quasi military
occupations on the lines of communi-
cation just back OF the trenches. II
Is q short step to the firing line.

A WARTIME CREED.

The Forums suggestion for war
time creed:
st believe in the ultimate victory Of
democracy in the world war.
i"I believe in the American govern
ment and will believe in the men at
the head Of it until they prove them
selves false or inefficient.
'I believe that the war may we'll
continue another year or two years and
that America must prepare for such q
test no matter how much she may hope
for an earlier termination.
II believe in the soundness of Amer
lean prosperity and that the man who
sells America short IL both knave
and q fool.
1T believe that America cannot af-
ford, physically or morally, TO fight
this war with munitions and money
only. It is our war and we must fight
it, not merely back 1t.
IT believe in the state OF North Da-
kota as one of the great bread baskets
acre should be wasted, or one ounce
Of human energy be left unexpended.
81 believe that it is my duty to fight
for my country IL am conscripted; to
go cheerfunX, hopefully and deter
mined to make myself the best soldier
possible with the brains God has given
me.
81 believe that 1t is my duty, If not
conscripted, to give my best energies
to the job at hand; to work as never
worked before; to contribute a gen.
erous share of my income regularly
and without solicitation to the work
of the Red Cross; to give unsparing-
ly Of my time and energies to the work
of the Fargo council for defense; to
restrain my tongue from thoughtless
criticism; to practice economy, not the
economy that skimps and boards but
rather the economy that guards
against wasting any products that are
necessary to the support OF life.
81 believe 1t is my duty not to hoard
either money or food; the first should
be kept circulating; the latter should
be made to produce more food.
II believe it is my duty as an Amer
lean to avoid mere blind hate that
wastes energy in futile denunciation.
II believe that the man who makes
the supreme sacrifice by offering his
life for his country outbids any sac
fifce I can make, and that 1t is my
4 duty to see that those dependent on
him have at least the necessities and
some of the comforts of life, without
being forced to ask for them.
II believe that out of this war there
must and will come league to enforce
permanent peace in the world.
81 believe that the war, horrible as
II is, will yet give to the world a new
conception Of the brotherhood Of man.
Il believe that America can be gen.
erous in victory, and enforce terms,
not as a harsh dictator but as
friend Of the defeated.
Il believe that the soul of country
is the sum total of the glorious deeds of
! it's citizenry, and that by actions. my
thought and my speech will not be
without their effect on the whole.
II believe that if I can live this
creed daily, l will be an American cit

preached at, cajoled, exhorted. and in
structed class in America. Any farm
err whs attempted to act on all the
advice given him would land in the
madhouse or the poorhouse.
But the campaign for more sheep
seems to be justified. On the cutover
lands of Wisconsin and Minnesota a
few sheep and man with a grub hoe
will clear an acre cheaper and more
effectively than any other combination.
The sheep keep down the second
growth of brush while the stumps rot
away, and they would almost pay for
themselves with the work they do,
even if wool and mutton were not
soaring to unheard of prices. On the
Dakota farms, the sleeps services as
assistant stump remover would not
command a high wage. but in the
present condition of the wool and NUT
ton markets an investment in few
sheep would doubtless be not only
patriotic but profitable. n~7

What North Dakota
Editors are Saying

Let every baby in Harvey be in the
Baby Parade on Friday, May II, which
will be the last feature of the Baby
Week campaign. We want not only
the babies but the small children as
we'll" saws the Harvey Journal.
If Harvey were in the First district
the Forum would respectfully refer
this item to the candidates for nomin-
alton to congress. Since it isn't, the
chance for an osculatOry sweepstakes
is lost.
1.-THE Pioneer by special arrange
ment, has secured a number of timely
articles on the baby and its care. and
they will be found on another page OF
this issue. These articles are well
written and interesting, and should
not be overlooked" writes the editor
of The Hope Pioneer.
Without wishing to appear curious
The Forum would inquire If The Pho
neer's experience is practical or vicar
ious.
when Gen. Haig tries to advance
three miles and advances only two,
that seems to be Berlin's idea of a
British defeat" says The Bismarck
Tribune, heaving brickbat at the
German idol and his strategic re-
treat"
The Casselton Reporter seems to be
flirting with the idea of sending Teddy
to the trenches, with the following
Marshal Joffre is strong for Ameri-
can troops in France. Their aid would
be considerable. their influence even
more"
Wilton is becoming metropolitan.
The Wilton News calls for traffic
COP as follows: "A committee from
the Wilton Community club will wait
Iupon the council next Monday and
| ask that an officer be placed at one
of the prominent street crossings and
arrest speeding automobiles. The
lives of our children are endangered py
careless, reckless driving" That
sounds better than hiring man to
| cut the grass in the streets.
ITO economize on leather they're
now making soles of aluminium. con-
tributes The Bismarck Tribune.
"To make Americans light on their
feet" is so easy we hate to do 1t.
The New Rockford State Center
editor Just touched a big problem
when he wrote: investigations show
that cost of delivery within the city
| exceeds the railroad freight transpor-
tation at Washington, or o. per cent
of the gross sales is spent for deliv-
cry"
Some day The Forum would like to
find out how much money is wasted
in Fargo by duplicate delivery sys-
TENS. It's a pretty problem in econ
omy that few American cities have
touched.
The Prairie Press editor will have
to be credited with clean single
over second for the following: I'VE
hear much about increasing produc-
ton and utilizing idle lands, but LEI
1 us not lose sight of the fact that the
burning demand is not for maximum
production per acre but maximum
per man."

LEMONS BRING OUT
THE HIDDEN BEAUTY
Make this lotion for very little
cost and Just see
for yourself. -,

What girl or woman hasn't heard Of
lemon Juice to remove complexion
bIemishes; to bleach the skin and to
bring out the roses, the freshness and
the hidden beauty? But lemon juice
alone is acid, therefore Irritating, and
should be mixed with orchard white
this way. Strain through fine cloth
the juice Of two fresh lemons into a
bottle containing about three ounces of
orchard white, then shake well and you
have q whole quarter pint of skin and
complexion lotion at about the cost one
usually pays for a small jar of ordinary
cold cream. Be sure to strain the lemon
juice so no pulp gets into the bottle,
then this lotion will remain pure and
fresh for months. When applied daily
to the face, neck, arms and hands it
should help to bleach, clear, smoother
and heautify the skin.
Any druggist will supply three ounces
of orchard white at very little. cost and
the grocer has the lemons.

TO PREVENT AUTo-INToxI-
CATION.

To insure good health, one must
have perfect elimination and positive
expulsion OF poisonous refuse from the

matter cause auto intoxication and
the poison finds its way through the
entire system. Foley Cathartic Tablets
are recommended for indigestion, con-

breath or other conditions caused by
disordered digestion. They work gently
