| League asks the cooperation of the
people of Minot. Nearly enough mon
ey has been collected, and the work
that is asked of friends of the work
should be so pleasant and interesting
that it should be sufficient remunera-
ton in itself. You can help further
/. By exhibiting flowers and vege-
tables, and by encouraging other peo-
pie to do the same.
2. By attending the show and by
encouraging children and older people
to come out and see what we can
grow in Minot, particularly with the
intention Of making their gardening
plans for next year.
Individuals and cooperating organ
izations are urged to help us to get
this flower show as much before the
children as possible so that there may
be complete exhibit, and so that
the work will have as much influence
on next seasons planting as possible.
The exhibit will be held in the
Elks Home on Tuesday and Wednes-
day, August 81 and %. Entries of
vegetables and flowers will begin at
nine o'clock on the first day and will
be accepted all day. They will close
at closing time on the first day.
A cash first and second prize will be
offered for every variety Of vegetable
shown in the children's entries. Only
the exhibits of children and high
school and normal school will be en-
tered for cash prizes, but ribbons and
honor prizes will be awarded for ev-
cry variety of vegetable shown in the
adult entries and in the flower entries.
Adult entries are particularly desired,
however, and good display of adult
entries will go long way toward
successful the objects for
which the show is planned. Prize
lists and other rules will be announced
later.

GARDEN CONTEST AND
VEGETABLE EXHIBIT
ElkS Home, August 2l and %


To Conform to War Time Needs
The executive committee of the City
Identifying League have decided that
the efforts Of the League can be most
usefully directed toward food produc-
ton and conservation at this time of
the National need for food. This was
decided at the last meeting of the
committee on August II, when the fol-
lowing resolution was passed unani-
mously:
"Moved that the exhibit be held as
scheduled, excepting that honor prizes
only be awarded for flowers; that rear
yard and vegetable contests be held as
scheduled, but that as far as possible
no money be expended excepting to
further vegetable culture and conser-
walton; this being in the opinion of the
committee war measure of incalcul-
able value"
The members were President Will O.
Doolittle, Mrs. C. B. Davis, F. B.
Lambert, James Macarthur and J. H.
Lewis.
The question of financing the show
which has always been met literally
before by public donations has become
a problem, because of the new de-
mands on public donations growing
out of the more urgently felt needs
brought on by the war. For this rea-
son it decided to limit the expenditure
of funds to premiums which directly
help in meeting the food crisis and to
give only honor premiums to orna-
mental displays and to flowers. The
immediate object of the League pro-
poganda is educational. By the gar
den contest and vegetable exhibit, it
is intended to give recognition to mer-
itorious work done in gardening this
season, to encourage other gardeners
by showing them what can be grown
in Minot gardens, and to stimulate
the planting spirit among both child
rem and adults to such an extent that
the area planted to gardens next sea-
son may be very greatly enlarged.
1t is a fair estimate that at least
200 vacant lots were put under cult
walton this year through the cooper
ative efforts of the League and the
Normal School, that probably would
not have been put under cultivation
otherwise, thereby adding several hun
dreds of dollars worth of vegetables
to the food supply of the City.
1t is in the furthering of the above
projects that the City Beautifying

STAINING THE MEN.

Elihu Root, in returning to America
after visiting Russia as head of the
American commission, made remark
in Chicago that cannot be construed
as other than reflection upon the
hundreds of thousands who are
claiming exemption from the National
Army.
'The women who are going to the
front in Russia are shaming the men
who are holding back" Root declared.
1T hope the American women will do
the same if we fall down on the task
set before u.s."
The gist Of the remark lies in ''if
we fall down in the task set before
u.s. And the way to fall down is to
claim exemption upon fimsy grounds.
If this occurs it is possible that
Roots diagnosis of the patriotism of
our women might be correct. They
are already doing war work with a
snap and enthusiasm that "shames
the men," and if worst came to worst,
we have no doubt that they would
shame them in other respects.

THE VALUE OF STOCK

"Well, don't know what we would
have done this winter if it had not been
for the cows, or for the half-dozen
steers that we had to sell, or for the
Is to 80 hogs that we had to market"
These are expressions that are being
made in all parts of the state this sum-
mer and they will likely be more the
winter. It will pay to think hard be-
fore stock is sold and to puzzle good
deal over food for them. Stock are
mighty valuable, in fact, they come
mighty near being the goose that lays
the golden eggs.

The Minot Public Library is asking
for books which are to be read by the
soldiers at the front. Every family
is asked to give one or two books.
Don't know which ones to part with ?
Just imagine yourself a soldier at the
front, coming off duty at the end of a
trying period, standing in the muddy
trenches, with the shells whistling
around you. In way you have had
plenty of entertainment, and now you
want to be entertained in a different
manner. Books of adventure, good
short stories, after dinner jokes, any
thing to take the minds of the soldiers
off from their grim business will find
a welcome. Don't give the books with
the expectations of getting them back.
These boys are going to the front to
fight for all of us and it is certainly
not much to ask Of anyone to give up
a book or two. Miss Greene, our IL
brarian, can assist you in making your
selection if you will call on her or call
her up by phone, No. sos.
