CATARRHAL DEAFNESS CANNOT
BE CURED

by local applications. as they cannot

There is only n way to cure catar-

Is caused by an inflamed condition
OF the mucous lining of the eustach-

you have a rumbling sound or imper-

the Inflammation can be reduced and
this lube restored to its normal condi-

catarrh, which is an infiamed condi-

EDITORIAL BY THE
o ADMINISTRATION

Seven years ago a famous European
student Of history prophesied that the
next great war of the future would
not be won by lighting but by famine.
We are today fighting that war, and
famine is indeed threatening to be its
arbiter.
The men Of England. Scotland, Ire
land. France, Italy and Belgium-our
allies-are fighting; but they are not
on the farms. The production of food
by these countries has therefore been
greatly reduced. Even before the war
il was much less than the amoun con-
sumed. The difference came more
largely from other countries than
from America. Now. this difference is
greater than ever. and, at the same
time. supplies can no longer come
from most Of the other countries. They
must now come from America. There
fore, our allies depend on us for food
as they have never depended before.
and they ask US for it with a right
which they never had before. For to-
day they are doing the fighting, the
suffering and dying-in our war.
We must send them the food they
have to have. We will send it. But
we can only do it by a wise and loyal
economy of food on the part of every
one Of US. We must stimulate our
food production, organize our food
handling. eliminate all the waste pos
sible, substitute as largely as posi-
bic other foods for wheat, beef, pork.
dairy products. and sugar. and reduce
consumption where it is excessive.
To accomplish these things is the
problem Of the United States food ad
ministration. But this accomplish
ment can come only from the COM
bined personal and voluntary service
of all the people of the land. To that
end we want all the people to join the
food administration. No fees or dues;
merely a promise to help. Send for
membership pledge and our plan.

DRAFTING
THR ALIEN


This newspaper has more than once
suggested that the all-too-apDareni
desire. in the United States. to draft
aliens into the military service Of the
country should be tempered by con-
sideration for Americans, who, at
some time in the future, may be
counted az aliens in other lands. The
United States cannot adopt a policy
which involves the denial Of exemp-
ton to aliens within It's borders with
out c~onceding to other nations a SINH
lar right in dealing with Americans. +

posed brutal reprisals toward Bel

the adoption Of his plan might bring
to the innocent among BIT "gn coun-
trynen at some future day.
Secretary Lansing, who has ex-
hibited excellent judgment in dealing
with this delicate matter. On Wednes-
day presented the problem in its true
light to the house committee on mill
tary affairs. There are various meas
ures pending. and in preparation
looking TO the drafting of aliens in the
United States. Referring to the Cham
berlain resolution, and some proposed
drastic amendments. Mr.. Lansing
asserted that a general policy OF
drafting all aliens might lead TO SER
ious reprisals and cause no end of
trouble to the United States" He cited
the Ease of Mexico as an instance.
pointing out that if Mexicans in the
United States were impressed into the
American army. Americans in Mexico
might be made to serve in the Mexican
army. al any time, to put down revo-
luton.
We are told that practically every
member OF congress has been be-
sieged with demands for some action
TO relieve conditions caused in cities
like Chicago, where there is a large
foreign population. and citizens are
held amenable to service, while aliens
are exempt. On the face of the things,
it appears to be entirely unfair that
the alien should thus be favored at
the expense Of the citizen, but it must
not be forgotten, and Mr.. Lansing at
least is not forgetting. that the time
may come when, ~ far as the Ameri-
a citizen is concerned, this condi-
ton may be reversed. To provide
against a contingency. he recommends
caution, and favors placing the whole
matter in the hands of the President.

AROUND HOME GROUND
New Responsibility Placed on Every
Farmer by Improvement Of Rural
Roads and Highways.


The improvement of rural highways
and the building of good roads lay a
new responsibility upon every farmer.
It means that there will be q greatly
increased amount of traffic passing by
his homestead; it will bring him more
closely in touch with the outside
world, including citizens from the i'm.
mediate neighborhood, from the sur.
rounding counties and indeed from
many parts Of other states.
The farmer and his home life are
now brought more directly to the at
tention Of the general public. Under
these circumstances Fl. +. Major of the
Missouri college Of agriculture sug.
gests that he take more pride in the
development Of his home grounds. "a
man is known by the company he
keeps" so the character of n man Is
judged by his home life and the at
mosphere with which he surrounds
himself.
The Improvement of the grounds
does not necessarily imply spending
great sums or building an extensive
"ShOw Place" decorated with architec.
tural furnishings and formal gardens.
1t means treating the yard as an out
of-door living room; as part Of the
house. 1t means, keeping it clean and
neat and comfortable and cheerful. It
should be decorated with fine trees,
beautiful Towering shrubs, and with
annual and perennial flowers that fill
the soul with. gladness and make home
n lovable spot surrounded by endear.
ing associations,

CONCRETE PAVEMENT is BEST
Affords as Good Foothold for Horses
as Any Other Hard Surface and
Wears Quite Well.

The concrete pavement in use on the
Agricultural college has proved that
this type Of pavement is successful,
according to L. e. Conrad, professor
Of civil engineering. This pavement
has been in use for more than three
years and shows practically no wear.
The traffic over this road is heavy.
1t consists Of all the coal and machin-
cry delivered to the colleges large
part Of the material that Is used in the
construction of new buildings on the
campus, college mail and express, and
the many pleasure vehicles that are
continually using this road.
Two methods were used to surface
the road. On the level portion of the
roadway the finish was made compur-
atively smooth. while on the grades Il
heavy stable brush was drawn over
the green cement, leaving rough sur
face. 1t is probable that after few
years Of service the roadway which
has the smooth surface will present a
more uniform appearance but ut pres
ent there Is no appreciablc difference.
1.-THE tcnmsters hauling coal to the
college power plant We're strongly Of
the opinion TINT the road would be
slippery" remarked Mr.COnrad, "but
they say. after using 1t for three years.
that 1t affords as good foothold for
the horses as any hard surface.
'rhe expansion and contraction Of
the concrete is taken up by stecl-beund
joints that are placed every IS feet,
these joints being surrounded by an
elastic material. Outside of few
dollars for replacing some of this ma
tcrlal, there has been no expense what
ever for tho repair or upkcep Of the
roadway"

NOTES FROM THE COUNTY
SUPERINTENDENT

We wish the teachers would use
every effort to get the boys and girls
of their schools to plant vegetable
gardens this year.
AMERICA is UP AGAINST A
REAL FOOD SHORTAGE. Even if
we raise as big crop in the Spring
wheat states as we have ever done,
there will be only two thirds as much
flour pc. capita as we are used TO
consuming during normal times. Our
flour will have to go to feed the boys
in the trenches and we must substi-
tute, in its place, the bulky vegetables
which we can raise and which cannot
be shipped great distance.
Get all your children, girls as we'll
as boys to plant some potatoes and
beans if nothing else. Every pound
produced is just that much more and
Emmons County has hundreds of idle
acres waiting to be planted.
No one can reach the children as
well as the teacher. Urge the boys
and girls to promise to plant and cul-
tivate garden.
AT the superintendent meeting at
Minot last week, special emphasis
was placed on rural school problems
and professional methods. President
Crane, of the Normal school at Minot
gave a talk on The aims of the school,
