POULTRY RAISING FOR BOYS

Never before was there a better
time for the North Dakota boys in the
country, city and village to earn some
extra money and at the same time
help the food shortage which the reo-
pie of the United States are using
every, measure to solve.
Boys, get busy and buy a few set
tings of eggs for Matching or buy
baby chicks. Some may think it is
rather late to buy eggs for Matching.
The beginner will be more successful
Matching in April and May, as better
matches are obtained in the natural
breeding season, the days of sunshine
and green grass. April Matching is
early enough for most breeds to ma
ture and the pullets to begin laying
before cold weather sets in, while
May-hatched chicks are very profitable
to produce. 1t is far better to buy a
setting or two of eggs in June, when
breeders generally make reduction
in price of Matching eggs, than go with
out and lose a whole years work. In
May or June weather and conditions
are at their best for the little chicks
and it is not more than half the work
to raise them as in the colder months.

WIMBLEDON BOYS ORGANIZE
CLUB FOR GARDEN WORK

Wimbledon News: The committee,
T. X. Calnan. Mrs H. NJ Chase, Frank
Pierce and C. w. Rabe, in charge of
the boys and girls garden club move
ment, have been busy. Eight boys
have already enlisted and a six.acre
tract of land used last year as hog
pasture by R. Clendening has been
leased, where each boy will cultivate
his acre or half-acre garden under the
supervision of the committee Pota-
toes, beans and sweet corn will be tho
chief vegetables planted. Other boys
may be added to the club. The girls
club has not been organized, but with
continued nice weather this club is
sure to bud out in week or so. Food
is just as important as guns or shells
in winning the war. Every garden
will help. Boys or girls who grows a
garden will be doing their share in
winning the war just as truly as the
man who goes to the front.

at the Dakota Drug Co. They removed
all symptoms of kidney trouble"

OVER TWO YEARS LATER, Mr..
Sollin said: II have had no need of a
kidney medicine since Doan's Kidney
Pills cured me some years ago.

Lo! nations hosts have gathered

Saying, Come"

Let me of my heart take counsel;
War is not of life the sum;
Who shall stay and reap the harvest
When the autumn days shall Gomez"
But the drum
Echoed, Come!
Death shall reap the Drawer harvest"
Said the solemn-sounding drum.
But when won the coming battle,
What If profits spring therefrOm?
What if conquest, subjugation,
Even greater ills become?"
But the drum
Answered, Come! ,.s.',>
You must do the sum to, prove it," -.

When my brothers fall around me,
Should my heart grow cold and

Than in life recreant-COlne!"
Thus they answered, hoping, fearing,

Lo! was dumb;

OLD IRONSIDE

Ay, tear her tattered ensign down!
Long has it waved on high,
And many an eye has danced to see
That banner in the sky;
Beneath it rung the battle shout,
And burst the lannon's roar;
The meteor of the ocean air
Shall sweep the clouds no more.
Her deck, once red with nero's blood,
Where knelt the vanquished foe,
When winds were hurrying DER the
food,
And waves were white below,
No more shall feel the victor's tread,
Or know the conquered knee;
The harpies OF the shore shall pluck
The eagle of the sea!
O, better that her shattered hulk
Should sink beneath the wave;
Her thunders shook the mighty deep,
And there should be her grave:
Nail to the mast her holy flag,
Set every threadbare sail,
And give her to the god of storm,
The lightning and the gale!

We have fought you, Mr.. wilson, just
as hard as e'er we could;
We have lined our pens against you'
and we've told you where we stood;
We have criticized your actions, ana
we've tied a lot OF hay
For to trip you, and to grip you, as
you've run along your way;
We've opposed your reelection, and
we've TESTED now and then
On the subject of your doings and the
products Of your pen;
But we want to tell you now, sir, In
this moment full Of dole,
We are with you - yes, we're with
you. We are with you heart and
soul!
And the past, sir, is forgotten, just as
though it hadn't been
Just as 'twere a bit of writing on
slate washed wholly clean;
All the things we deprecated, all the
things We didn't like,
They have vanished from our vision
like pacifist on strike;
All remembrance of your waiting"
and it's brother "watchfulness"
Has gone tumbling to the discard in
this moment of your stress;
And we want to tell you now, sir,
When you come to call the roll,
You will find that We are with YOU
Yes, we're with you heart and soul!
There's no elephant or donkey on the
Yankee pike today,
And the Bull Moose stops his bulling
on the broad and starry way;
And the animals of the party in our
overvaried ZOO
Are united, Mr.. Wilson, and are stand
ing back of you;
From the sands of San Diego to the
rocky cliffs of Maine,
From Atlantic to Pacific, out and back
and back again;
So here's to you, Prexy Wilson, may
God speed you to the goal!
We are with you-yes, we're with you!
We are with you heart and soul!

FALL IN

We thought that reason had mastered
men,
That peace of the world was lord,
That never the roll of the drum again
Should quicken the thirsty sword
But our bubble broke with a sudden
blow,
And we heard like the trumpet's din
That leveled the walls of Jericho
The old stern cry-"Fall i'm"
Not in the flush Of barren thrill
Do we come to our deed at last.
We have weighed our will, we must do
our will,
For the doubling time is past.
We have faced our souls in the Sleep
less nights,
And what shall we fear but sin?
Not for love of fight, but for love of
right,
In the name Of our God-"Fall i'm"

Enderlin, April 27-Our community
was inexpressibly shocked to learn
last night that Albert Fraedrich, one
of the prominent farmers residing
about six miles northeast of the city,
had died suddenly while at work in
the fields. It seems that he was work
ing with a manure spreader in the
fields when he fell unconscious and
was taken Immediately to the house,
but died before he was taken from the
machine. No further particulars can
be obtained at this time.

THE KID HAS GONE TO THE
COlORS

The Kid has gone to the Colors
And we don't Know what to say;
The Kid we have loved and cuddled
Stepped out for the Flag today.
We thought him child, baby
With never a care at all,
But his country called him man size
And the Kid has heard the call.
He paused to watch the recruiting,
Where, fired by the fife and drum,
He bowed his head to Old Glory
And thought that it whispered
"COme!"
The Kid, not being a Stacker,
Stood forth with patriot joy
To add his name to the roster
And God, we're proud of the boy!
The Kid has gone to the Colors;
1t seems but little while
Since he drilled schoolboy army
In truly martial style.
But now he's a man, a soldier.
And we lend him listening ear,
For his heart is heart all loyal,
Unscourged by the curse of fear.
His dad, when he told him, shuddered,
His motherhood bless her-cried;
Yet, blest with mother nature,
She wept with mother pride.
But he whose old shoulders straight
ened
Was granddad-for memory ran
To years when he, too, a youngster,
Was changed by the Flag to man!

A PRAYER

We're in it now The die is cast,
Our days of peace are in the past,
For liberty and truth we fight,
God grant that We are doing right.
We have been slow to strike, and
borne
Full patiently with hate and scorn.
To freedom now we pledge our
might,
God grant that we are doing right.
Not for ourselves, for gold or gain
Our swords with crimson blood we
stain,
But for mankind and honor bright,
God grant that we are doing right.
