CONSERVING
bREm--MEAT

Every citizen now realizes that the
two things in our food supply that
must be conserved are bread and meat.
This can be effectively done not only
in their economical use but also in
using proper care to protect and guard
the supply.
It is needless to say that now is the
time Of all times when live stock
should be carefully protected from d.
sease. A loss Of hogs or other live
stock of the meat producing classes is
not only a loss to the owner but it is
a direct decrease in the food supply
which should have such careful guard
ing at this time.
A loss Of food grains from impro-
per care is another instance of loss in
the food supply. All food grain
should be watched very carefully to
see that it is remaining in proper con
dition. Food grains should not be
threshed and stored until they are in
proper condition to store safely.
In many cases during the past few
months there have been severe losses
of meat producing animals and food
grains by fire. As a part of our pro-
gram of economy greater precaution
than ever before should be taken to
prevent fires. Not only in this way
the losses Of bread and meat to the
public be prevented.
Losses of the classes mentioned abvoe
are not such in all cases that even the
owner can protect himself by insur-
ance, and in no case will insurance
protect the public. Just now the pub.
lie is interested in the bread and meat
itself and not in its value. While
every inc Of u citizens must be pro.
tected against loss by any mean av.
ailable to him, yet in addition to that
it is his patriotic duty just now tt
protect the bread and meat supply Of
the nation by preventing it's destruc'
tionif possible, because any foot
grains or meat animals that are de
stroyed are entirely lost to the public
and cannot be restored. Guard thu
grain and live stock with greater car,
than is ordinarily used because tn,
risk is now somewhat greater than or
binary and it is a patriotic duty JUS
now to do so.

is MONTHS OLD BULL
BROUGHT SLABS

Grandin, Nov. 4.-The cattle sold at
the first annual Shorthorn sale on the
Riverview farm at Grandin, brought
an average of 1915 per head. This is
a higher average than has been paid
at any similar sale in North Dakota
or Minnesota or South Dakota. The
10 months old Shorthorn bull, Royal
Stamp, brought SLABS, which is the
highest price ever paid for a Short
horn bull bred in North Dakota.
B. W. Aylor, proprietor of the Riv-
erview farm, anticipated the needs of
the state and accordingly built up a
fine hurd of Shorthorns headed by the
bull, Maxwalton Stamp End. The an
finals that brought the highest prices
at this sale yer the get of this bull.
This sale indicates that the stock
business in North Dakota is develop
ing more rapidly than many had thot
and that development is now in full
swing.

This val has made US think hard
and fast. Your boy or your neigh
boris boy or some boy you know and
love has been called to do his share
in the big job Of policing the world for
democracy and human liberty. Is 1t
any comfort to you to know that wher.
ever his duty may call him your boy
will nave a friend that will serve him
in body. mind and soul? Are you
glad to know that this friend will place
books and magazines at his disposal,
organize classes to teach him what
ever he wants to learn, give him a
pocket testament and invite him to
join religious meetings of the faith
that he was brought up in? Did you
realize that the association provides
athletic equipment for his favorite
games, teaches him games If he knows
non and holds concerts, lectures.

some amusement to keep him interest.
ed? Are you glad to know that this
friend will go with him overseas, help
to shield him from a score of difficult
and dangerous temptations and follow
him right up to the front line trench
and beyond 1t? The last contact the
soldier has with this life he loves sc
well Is a cup of tea given him by the
Y. M. G. A. free just before he goei
"over the top" to a hand to hand strug.
gle with the enemy. And as he comes

plucky enough to keep on his feet

the Y. M. C.. A. is waiting for MIN with

you wonder that the Red Triangle IL
called 'the best loved trademark /,

called 1t "the last evidence that any

II every thinking citizen could see

Of the actual work being done for gu

In each Of these q soldier was strum-
ming On q piano; others were reading
books and magazines; hundreds were
writing letters home. Behind the
raised counter at one end three or four
young men were busy passing out
:notepaper and envelopes, selling
stamps and weighing parcels, which
the men were sending home. One Of
the. soldiers said to me as ! stood in
the tent used chiefly by men from
Iowa: I'VE came all the way here
from Des Moines, and we we're mighty
lonely. Then we found this Y. M. G.

What an appeal to the sympathies

Immediately of the sacrifice they have
made for the rest of us and how pre-.
cious they are to some one back home.
Somewhere. in far off farm Of village
or city street, there are parents or
brothers or wives who would give all
they possess for one glimpse of those
sunburned faces as you and ! see
them on their last night before going
across. And 1t was with a throb OF
the heart that l watched them, bent
over their letter paper, in one after
another of those seven big tents.
These were the tents of the Y. M. G.
A. On that last night in America the
association was serving the soldiers
In the best Of all ways-giving them
an opportunity to write home. On
previous nights they had enjoyed box
ing bouts, movies, concerts, dramatics
and q score of healthy entertainments
q well as religious meetings. But on
this last night home ties were strong

'~T was evening on the broad
Hampstead Plain, Long Island,
where the Rainbow division was
spending Its last night before embark
ing for France. It had been raining
hard in the afternoon-a cold, steady
autumn downpour-and there was
nothing to suggest the rainbow in the
outward aspect of the camp. Lines
and lines Of sodden canvas housed
$1,000 men, gathered from 81 different
states. The ground was dotted with
pools and quagmires. Under the wet
canvas it was damp and cold, with. q

his native land.
But there were seven big tents
where electric lights, numbers and

Of position and refinement, who report
that they never meet any d%iscourtesy

HE FOUND WAY TO WAKE HER
Minister, Annoyed by Woman Who
Persisted in Sleeping During
Service, Had a Bright Idea.

The minister Of l. - is one Of
those quietly humorous characters Of
whom there are many In the church.
He has deal to contend with in
his preaching, and the chief matter he
has to combat is sleep.
Many of his hearers begin to doze
the minute he starts preaching. The
minister arranged with the verger that
in future he should endeavOr to wax
en- sleepers from the pulpit.
He managed this successfully for
some time, but one Sunday he failed
to rouse an old woman, well-known
innkeeper in the parish. At length,
just as he was about to yield, bright
idea struck him.
"Tll waken her this time" he ex-
claimed.
Striking the side Of the pulpit firm
~ with his Clenched fist, he called out,
"Anither pint here, JANET" whereupOn

replied, Coming, sir; comingw

BADNESS DUE TO PET DOGS
Doctor Holds CANNES Responsible for
Epidemic Which Has Appeared
Among Women In London.

From London comes a warning to
women who have pet dogs. Since the
start of the war many English women
have found that they were losing their
hair. A West End hairdresser, observ-
ing that he had had more cases of fall
ing hair In the last year than ever be-
fore, regarded worry and grief as the
cause, but physician advances an
other theory:
"This explanation Is partly correct"
says this physician. 'The depressing
effect on vitality Of fear, anxiety and
sorrow reacts with serious cOnse-
quences on the hair. But In my opin-
ion the epidemic, If there Is an cpl
demic, Is to be traced mainly to infec-
ton from dogs.
every hair expert knows that In
nine out of ten cases the premature
loss of hair Is due to dandruff. That
condition often results from the pres
ence of microbes whose great source Ia
the dog. Ordinary cleansing with soap
or shampoo preparations Is of practi-
cally no use, but simple antiseptics,
such as boric ointment, usually bring
about speedy cure. AS preventive
measure dispense with the dog"

Tons of Gold Dollars.

The statement that there has just
been counted in New York, at the
United States assay office, the enOr-
nous sum of $765, 100000 in gold may
be visualized somewhat when this is
translated into ounces, pounds and
tons, writes Girard In the Philadelphia
Ledger.
While it has been asserted that this
sum probably is the largest amount of
gold coin and bullion ever accumulat-
ed in one place, it is well to remem-
Der that only so recently as a year
ago there was said to be $S000OO,OOO
In gold and bullion in the Russian
State bank.
The sum in New York figures out
something like this: There are ap-
proximately 100000 ounces or 3,000,-
600 pounds or 1,646 tons. The figures
are not exact.

MILKING SHORTHORN
DUAL-PURPOSE cows
Superior to Farmer Who Desires
Good Mess Of Milk Along
With Ability to Fatten.

Milking Shorthorns are identical
with the beef Shorthorn so far as
color is concerned. They vary all the
way from red to white, with numer-
Gus roans. The milking ShorthorA
usually presents the rather reCtangu-
lar shape Of the beef Shorthorn, but
is somewhat inclined to be more an
gular.
The milking Shorthorn Is superior
or inferior to the other dairy breeds
accordingly as dairy performance Is
of greater or less importance. The
breed or more correctly strain, is not
as highly developed as a mich ami
nal as are the specialized dairy
breeds. 1t properly fills the place Of
n dual-purpose cow, or COW for the
farmer who desires a good mess Of
milk along with ability to fatten
readily and produce a good market
able carcass.
The farm condition under which a
breed must be kept, the market facili-
ties, the likes and dslikes Of the
owner, etc, are all factors that de-
termine the desirability or undesira-
bility Of any particular breed. Certain
conditions demand one breed and 9th
ers are best for another.
