How the Boys and Girls Can Help

How the Boys and Girls Can Help
Food is just as important as guns
or shells in winning the war. Every
garden will help. Every boy or girl
who grows garden will be doing their
share in winning the war just as truly
as the man who goes to the front. The
way for the boys and girls to enlist is
to find piece of suitable ground that
is available. plow it up and plant it to
vegetables. Full information and plans
as to how, when and what to plant can
be secured from the Agricultural Ex-
tension Department. Agricultural Col
lege (P. o. North Dakota.
The first thing to do is to select we'll
drained soil that is not too heavy or
gravelly and that does not have too
deep sod on it, apply well rotted ma
nure, plow or spade deeply and make a
mellow but firm seed bed. The vege-
tables that produce the most food
value are peas. beans, corn, beets, car.
rots. parships, onions, cabbage and
squash. When there is room potatoes
should be included.
Now is the time for the boys and
girls to enlist in the garden army.

MILITARY TRAINING CAMPS

The United States Government is or
ganizing camps for the training of
candidates for commissions in the Of
ficers Reserve Corps. The camp for
North Dakota will be located at Fort
Smelling, Minnesota, where not to ex-
ceed $500 candidates will be received
for training. This camp training will
start about May 8th and last for three
months. Candidates are desired be-
tween the ages of twenty years and
nine months and forty-four years. The
enlistment in this camp is for the per-
iod of three months only and does not
require the candidate to enlist for any
further service unless he desires.
The object of these camps is to Sc
cure 10000 officers to command the
first 100000 troops. Candidates with
college education or some military
school training are especially desired
Candidates selected for command in
the regular army who then desire to
enlist will become regular officers with
war Office salary. Transportation
board, clothing, and equipment, will be
furnished.
Candidates should take prompt ac'
tion. as their applications must be sent
in at once. The local chairman is F,
d. Mccartney, of whom applications
and information can be obtained.

AN APPEAL TO OWNERS
OF VACANT LOTS

The American people, against their
will, have been dragged into the Euro
pean conflict. We are at war. 1t will
be the business of America as never
before to assist in replenishing the
food supply of the Allies. In addition
she must feed her own people. If the
farmer doesn't have a crop this year
conditions may become appalling.
What concerns the American people
equally concerns the citizen of Oakes.
It is necessary that every citizen
who possibly can should plant a gar
den this spring. Some would gladly
plant a garden or plant more if they
had the ground available. Therefore
this appeal. Every citizen who has va
cant lots and is not planning on put
ting them under cultivation himself
should demonstrate his patriotism by
allowing someone else to use for gar.
den purposes free Of charge. The more
food stuffs, that can be raised this year
the better. This is small matter, but
at this time it becomes a patriotic
duty.
(Signed)
Clarence E. Blume.

Cemetery to Be Improved

The City of Oakes has recently taken
over the management of the Oakes
cemetery, and according to law board
of control has been appointed to man.
age it.
The board which has been appointed
by Mayor Slocum and which will have
charge of the cemetery for the next
two years is composed of the following
aldermen: H. ]. Johnson, chairman,
]. A. Dyer, ]. d. Scott.
1t is desired by this board that the
cemetery have sufficient income to
enable the board to hire man who
will devote all his time to the care of
the graves, paths, and of the flowers
and trees which are planted and which
will be planted in the future. At the
present time there is no water in the
cemetery and it is planned to install
either pumping plant and a large
tank or make arrangements to secure
artesian water in order that the trees,
shrubs and grass may be watered.
A charge of $500 per lot yearly will
be made and the money derived from
this source and from the future sale of
lots will be e<spent for labor, trees and
shrubs and an endeavor made to beau
tify the Oakes cemetery.
A good many lot owners have ex-
pressed a willingness to give more
! than $500 and this is particularly ac-
ceptable at this time. Contributions
can be made to H. ]. Johnson, or to

Too Much Water

The heavy rains of last year and the
excessive SHOWS of winter have left
the country south and southeast of
Oakes in rather wet condition.
The large lake near Straubville tied
up train service on the Great Northern

water. Considerable of the water has
dried up in the past week and some
of the high land is now being sown.

The class plays of the past have set a
high standard and the present senior
class is confident it will maintain this
standard in their presentation of that

fact that the class is obliged to pay a
royalty for permission to produce it.
The synopsis follows:

OFF IN PATRIOTISM
OPEN, AIR MEETING IN WHICH
MANY JOIN
Red Cross Chapter Set Asoina-Mili-
tary Drills. Will Soon Be
There Too

Oakes had it's first patriotic meeting
on Saturday evening, and it showed
fervor worthy of the times in which
we live. The main square was a mass
of people who had come out to take
part in the exercises and listen to the
addresses.
The band had led the party from the
city hall, the place of assembling, and
were followed to. the main square by
the Women's Relief Corps and by
school children and citizens-each
carrying a flag. The red, white and
blue was much in evidence.
The speaking took place from an au-
tomobile in which were Mayor Slocum,
Revs. Wolfe and Opie and Supt.
Blume. Mayor Slocum acted as master
of ceremonies, and after few patriot
ic selections by the band, called for
the invocation by Rev. Aaron Wolfe.
This was followed by addresses by
Rev. James Opie and Supt. Blume, who
reviewed the great European conflict,
and why we had entered into it. Both
addresses were full of patriotism and
were punctuated with applause.
At the close as many as could get
into the city hall crowded in where a
chapter of the Red Cross was started.
Mayor Slocum was made temporary
chairman and Mrs. J. w. Bush tempo
rary secretary. After the matter was
explained the roll was opened and
thirty-five names were appended as
charter memoers. This was sufficient
to send for charter to Washington
and as soon as the charter is received
a canvass will be made of the city for
members. The fee is but one dollar.
Mrs. ]. A. Logan volunteered for Civ
ing instructions in Red Cross work, to
those who would care to take it.
