Capt. I. P. Bakers appointment as
fuel administrator for North Dakota
is regarded as particularly fortunate.
He is believed to be one of North Da-
kota's best authorities on native lig-
mite coal, and he is conceded to be- one
of the best managers in the state. A
quarter of century or more ago,
man who was then associated with
Capt. Baker, heard him make the
statement to the Washburn interests
that central North Dakota had enough
Ignite coal to supply the nations
needs for 500 years to come Ignite
was not highly regarded in that early
day, nor was the extent Of the states
deposits appreciated, and Capt. Baker
was regarded by even good North Da-
kotans as too enthusiastic optimist.
Since that time, the United Statues &C.
illogical survey, after a careful inves-
tigation of North Dakota's coal re-
sources, has made statement identi-
cal with that of Captain Baker.

When the snow is on the prairies
And the stock is put away
In their stanchion stall to rummage
In the sweet alfalfa hay,
Well, / like to loaf among 'em,
Like a Parson maxim calls,
When the snow is on the prairies
And the cattle's in their stalls.
Like to stroke their dusty noses
When they lift their heads to see
If I've got extra carrot,
Or turnip long with me;
Stroke their silken sides and listen
To the rustic Of the hay,
When the snow is on the prairies
And the stock is put away.
Oh, for visitin' in winter,
Give me just the cattle shed,
With the cooter of the chickens
And the pigeons overhead,
For it starts a pleasant feelin'
In feller's breast to know
That the cows are warm and happy
Though the prairie's under snow.
When the snow is on the prairies
And the stock is put away, !
Oh, I like to hea rthe rustic
Of the sweet alfalfa hay.
There's a heap of satisfaction
In that old familiar sound,
When the cattle's in their stanchions
And the snow is on the ground.

to make up the serious shortage threat
ened by the unpromising conditions If
the winter wheat crop.
Action at once is imperative, said the
secretary, and the best opportunity
will be found in the regions ia which
spring wheat already is produced ex-
tensively.
"Attempts to increase the acreage Of
spring wheat outside the present spring
wheat belt, on the other hand, might
prove less successful because of a lack
of familiarity by farmers with the
CROP" continued the statement, "and
especially because of the difficulty of
obtaining harvesting machinery and the
added likelihood of the crop suffering
for a lack of labor at harvest time. A
concentration of large crop production
will make possible the more efficient
utilization of labor, whether the labor
ers assemble individually or under a

INsTILLTNCs PATRIOTISM
BY ARMSTRONG METHODS

Grand Junction, April IA little
n proper respect for Old Glory, and
Gay HereJeeu, special detective for the
D. q r. G. has way of applying that
force which is most effective. In fact,
so effective that one is lulled off into a
hong sleep, Such was the experience of
Mike Valesqucz, local Mexican charac-
ter. who on Sunday night thought ne
would start a little revolution of his
own against Uncle Sam. He didn't get
very far with his revolution: in fact,
no farther than the corner of Fourth
and Coolroio, fer there he met up with
M. Hrredeen who is at all times in
readiness to uphold the honor of Uncle
Sam.

Bin followed Immediately by dntl
thud and the revolution was over, Val
-esqucz had gone to sleep on the job.
In foct his sleep was so sound that
when he awakened he was in the city
bastilc and would have made fitting
companion for Bryan s peace dove.
Another Jolt, though not to the point
of the Jaw, was administered to him
Monday morning when he was ar
raigucd before Mayor Cherriugton, for
there he was informed of the fact that
he must remain guest of the city for
the next 50 days, serving out sen
tence Of $50 and costs assessed against
him.
The Mexican has given the authcri-
ties much trouble in the past and they
are determined to be rid Of him. he
will be compelled to serve out the SEN
fenee, unless he can be run ont of town
and made to stay away, and if any
moro reasonable utterances are heard
out of him he will be turned over to
-she government authorities as an alien
enemy and probably confined in con-
centration camp until such time as the
war is over. The time is past when
Grand Junction will longer contend
with such characters, and they will be
