Your druggist for one-ounce package
of beta -quintol. and mix this with one

A.|V0BLE WORK
-PRO.GERMAN RUMORS WOULD
HINDER RED CROSS PROGRESS

1 Foreman,N. D., Oct. 4.-Reports
that articles which patriotic ladies are
industriously knitting for the Ameri-
can Red Cross were to be sold by that
organization to the soldiers, and that
there was back of the Red Cross a
gigantic profteering scheme, freely
circulated by pro- o-Germans and Social
istic agitators, has handicapped the
work of the Red Cross society here.
In spite of the strenuous denials these
ridiculous reports continue to crop out
: and the officers are making a vigorous
effort to trace these falsehoods to their
source. Ladies who believe the stor-
les told them have Indignantly return
. ed their yarn and knitting needles, and
considerable argument has been re-
quired in some instances to convince
them that the Red Cross society is dis
tributing absolutely free to soldiers in
the war zone the product of these pa
triotic women's labors. Public indig-
nation over this dastardly attempt to
discourage humane work for the re-
lief of the boys fighting in France is
running so high that summary treat
ment is in store for the perpetrators
of the outrage.

Every time you go into a store and
say: "Have it charged" "Have it Ex-
changed" "please deliver this" you
are simply adding just so much to the
price of the goods. Your great grand
father carried j. market basket on his
arm and your great grand mother ne
yer saw a delivery wagon, for there
were none. Pay cash. Keep what you
buy and carry your. packages homo
and the pric, Of all commodities will
come down. It does not cost .ore
than a cent or two to bring an orange
from California, 5000 miles away
but costs your grocer more than that
to deliver it to you only block or tw,
away. The consumer himself is large
ly responsible for the high price OF
goods.

WAR TANKS'''
AID RECRUITING
FORMIDABLE VEHICLE TURNED
OVER TO GOVERNMENT BY
DODGE BROTHERS DEALERS.

Recruiting officers in the Chicago
district have been assisted materially
in their efforts during the last few
weeks by a specially constructed ar
mored car of the tank species. The
tank, a formidable looking object with
heavy guns mounted in genuine war
time fashion, an American flag fving
from the top and a recruiting banner
on the rear, has attracted interest to
such an extent that streets are often
blockaded when it pauses for u mo-
ment on corner. The pauses are
frequent, incidentally, for the tank is
used by recruiting officers as a plat
form from which addresses are &C.
livered. The tank is built over
Dodge Brothers motor car, the en1re
outfit having been placed at the dis
posal of the government officers bv
the Dashiell Motor Company, Dodge
Brothers dealers in Chicago. Thru
an arrangement just made by the De-
troit factory, the same tank will ap-
pear in many other leading cities OF
the country where recruiting for var
ious branches of the service is still in
progress.

SOLDIER Z BOYS
WERE GIVEN A
BIG SEND0FF

Word reached the city the latter
part of the week that members Of Cos.
ID and G. would leave Monday for
their training camp in North Carolina,
and accordingly rapid arrangements
were made to give them most hearty
farewell. Their train was on the side
track, and the time for leaving was at
;2:00 P. NJ, Monday. Consequently
every place of business in the city was
closed from IL until 200 and our citi-
zens, together with hundreds from the
surrounding country were on hand to
bid them God-speed along their way.
At one o'clock the local band headed
the parade, and was followed by the
old veterans Of the war of 1861-65,
then came the local scouts, and were
followed up by the officers and men,
hers of Companies D and G. Kelly
Avenue had been cleared of all vehi-
<cles and traffic was suspended on this
street, in order to give the parade the
entire right of way, and the line Of
march was from the Great Northern
hotel north, to the high school building
and return to the depot, where all the
soldier boys were marched directly to
their train. The depot platform, and
the Great Northern yard Utterly
thronged with people. Fathers, moth
,ers, brothers, Sisters, and wives and
sweethearts -e4a there to say the last
fond farewell to the boys who go to
fight for the cause Of right and liberty
for the whole world. In way it was
really a sad gathering, but the soldier
boys all seemed cheerful, and when
the train pulled out there was joyful
shouting and waving Of flags and
handkerchiefs. If there has been any
doubts in the minds Of some people OF
Devils Lake AMI vicinity being pa
~triotic, we believe that doubt was dis.
PEELED by the patriotic actions Of oul
citizens Monoay. It was certainly q
rousing sendoff for the boys, and the
best wishes or all go with them, and
we all hope to see them return safely

The Assembling of a
Great Army at Camp Dodge

with flags flying, the air pierced with
the flare of trumpets, and the stern
command Of hundreds Of officers made
the transformation seem like dream.
Some Cantonment Figures.
/ The 18th Army Cantonment occupies
4,300 acres of ground. Of this amount
the United States government owns
800 acres; the state of Iowa owns 48O
and there are rented from SO different
land owners, 2,94O acres. This II
son the farmers receive $9.46 Dr.. are
rent and whatever price may BE- ag e.
ed upon for the destruction Of the
growing crop. Next season the rental
will be $11.38 rer acre. The rent is
paid monthly and amount to $33, ass
per year. The land stretches from
Beaver Creek to the DesMoines River
and beyond "a distance from east to
west of 3.75 miles and from mort to
south a distance of ESQ miles. This
makes a distance of over five mile
from the entrance at the southeast
corner to the extreme limit at the
northwest corner at the town of Her
rold. The land is valued at 5000, 900.
In the beginning of the work all
streets and alleys were laid out, a
sewerage system was planned, and
water mains located. The result is
! that there are 10 mile of paved streets
and 10 miles Of graveled highways.
The sewer proper is three mile long,
made of 30-inch sewer pipe and
throughout the grounds are IS miles
of sewers and laterals. There are 81
miles Of water rains and laterals and
a million gallon cement reservoir on
the top of hill overlooking the build
ings. The water is supplied from a
we'll so feet in diameter in sandy
formation on the banks of the Des
Moines river. Three rotary pumps
capable Of throwing million and 6
half gallons of water lay are run by
electric meters. Three fire companies
are on duty at different points on the
grounds and all fire equipment is pro-
PEELED by electric motors. 1t required
% ditching machines for water mains
and the like. In some places the CIV.
er was placed at depth of "a feet.
Many Buildings Required.
There are 1,478 buildings for the
housing of the soldiers and for pener.
al purposes. These are all built after
a uniform pattern and present most
fascinating appearance. Each building
will be libraries, canteens and the like
