There is only one class of citizenship
in these United States. A naturalized
citizen Of foreign birth is just as truly
a citizen as one born here. Your type
of citizenship is therefore not meas
ured by who you are or where you
came from. but solely by your loyalty
and patriotism. The oath of the nat
uralized citizen should be an added
guarantee of his feaity to the govern
ment. Any attitude unfriendly to this
government in its present relation
with Germany, should be promptly
called to my attention, or reported to
the office of the states attorney OF the
United States district attorney. The
peace officers of this county will posi-
lively not tolerate any seditious utter
ances or traitorous acts, and call up
on the patriotic citizenship of this
county to aid by prompt reports of any
desecration of the flag, traitorous acts,
or seditious utterances.
fervently believe that Dickey coun-

:, /, w. D. Huffman, sheriff of Dickey
county,, on behalf ~of the Conference
Committee on National Preparedness,
wish in this formal proclamation to as
sure all residents of foreign birth that
whereas the United States has become
actively involved in the great Euro
pean war, no citizen of any foreign
power, resident in Dickey county, need
fear an invasion of his personal or
property rights so long as he goes
peaceably about his business and con-
ducts himself in a law-abiding manner.
The United States has never, in any
war, confiscated the property Of any
foreign resident unless by his own hos
tile acts he made it necessary.
l take this formal means of declar-
ing to all foreign-born residents that
they will be protected in the owner
ship of their property and money and
that they will be free from personal
molestation, so long as they obey the
laws of the state and nation.
Let it be understood that every cit
izen owes undivided allegiance to the
American flag, that he is expected to
loyalty fulfill all obligations which cit
izenship and residence impose upon
him, and that any act, however slight,
tending to give aid or comfort to the
enemy is treason, for which severe
penalties are provided in addition to
the punishment which public opinion

Charley Smith Has Accident

Charley Smith of Hample was the
victim of very unfortunate accident
Tuesday while enroute to Oakes. At
ter getting about two miles out of
Hample his team and load became
stuck in the mud SO badly that it took
some little time to get out. After get.
ting them free of tha mud Mr.. Smith
attempted to climb on the wagon when
his horses started, with the result that
he was thrown under one of the
wheels. 1t was about three hours af-
ter the accident until he was found by
Mr.. Malmberg, who noticed the team
had been standing in the same place
for some time. Thinking someone was
stuck in the mud and needed assist
ance he went down to find Charley at
the side of the road, badly bruised but
still conscious. The unfortunate vic
tim was taken to the Oakes Hospital
at once where it was discovered that
his hip had been dislocated. At the
last report he is recovering rapidly
but it will be some time before he will
be able to resume his work.

Suggestions Holu Dickey County
Farmers Can Increase Production
By W: 9: RICHARDS County Agriculture. Agent
BY w. 3. RICHARDS
5 County Agricultural. Agent

Every farmer in Dickey County is
aware of the urgent demand made on
the part of the government and other
agencies regarding the necessity for a
large production of all farm products
this season. For this reason there is
no necessity for me to dwell with any
length in order to emphasize this ur-
gent desire to have the farmers in
crease the production of their farms as
much as possible this year.
This is patriotic duty that all
should perform to the best of their
ability. The demand is just and
needful one and when we consider that
this country is faced with the neces-
sity of preparing and taking part in
the greatest Of world wars, with the
country experiencing the greatest food
shortage ever known in its history.
This is not only an opportunity to be a
help to ones country, but also an op-
portunity to increase his own welfare
as well.
Responsibility on Agents
County agents are being informed
through the different government
agencies that much is expected Of
them to help bring about greater pro-
duction in their counties. This places
much responsibility upon the county
agent who will accept it. I, as one, am
willing to accept the responsibility.
How much shall be able to accom-
plish, however, in increasing the pro-
duction of farm crops this season in
the county will depend largely upon
the cooperation shall get from the
farmers and the other people of the
county. If they do not cooperate by
soliciting what aid am able to give
them to plan for greater production
and also to make use of all the infor-
nation am able to give, or obtain for
them, then. we will fall short of accom-
plishing what is possible.
In view of what is stated above am
taking this means of informing the
farmers who wish assistance that am
ready to cooperate and prepared to
render to them what help is within my
power. and if necessary to put forth
greater effort than has been done in
the past in case results can be accom-
bplished.

To Organize Red Cross

After the patriotic meeting on the
main square the people are invited to
assemble at the city hall for the pur-
pose of organizing branch of the
American Red Cross. This is going on
in all cities of any consequence at the
present time. Your country needs you
as member of this great agency in
the present crisis, and every man and
woman, and boy and girl, should be-
long to it.
You know what the Red Cross is.
You are familiar with some of its
achievements-with the organized
helpfulness, heroism and self-sacrifice
Of its men and women amid the hor-
rors Of war, devastating plaques and
epidemics and in great calamities,
such as the San Francisco fire, the
Ohio Valley floods, the Titanic" and
"Eastland" disasters; and other catas-
tropics involving loss of life and suf-
fering.
Do you know that as an American
you have the right to become mem
Der Of the Red Cross? That by the
payment of small annual dues, and a
little unselfish service; you can sup
port your government in its humani'
tartan work?
Your circumstances may not permit
you to engage in field work-few mem
bers can-but you can help; your fam
lily and your friends can help by be
coming members of the society and by
actively supporting your local Red
Cross Chapter.
Your help is needed now. To sup
port It's field and base hospitals, its
doctors and nurses, and to provide the
necessities Of military and civilian re
lief. calls for at least 100000 mem
bers. America can do what other ma
tiOns have done. z
No field service is required Of mem
fbers.
All are invited to take part Saturday
Ievening1at city hall.

CITY COUNCIL
IS ORGANIZED
AS EXPECTED ALL OLD APPOINT
EEs RETAINED
6. w. Smiley Is Chosen Out Of Field
for Night Policeman With
Raise Of Salary

For lack of quorum on Tuesday
evening the city council did not or
ganize, but last evening found the
mayor and all councilmen together at
$3.50. X
The council organized by the elec-
tion of Alderman Scott as president
and Alderman johnson as vice presi-
dent.
On motion Dell Coy was appointed
as poundmaster.
The mayor stated that if there were
no objections he would reappoint w.
r. Whitver as city auditor. Hearing
none w. R. Whityer was appointed.
There were six applications in for
night gyliceman. No names were read,
but on putting decision of this to the
couacil the votes were as follows:
Smiley 8, Kahl 1, Harris 1, Frawley 1.
The second ballot was the same. The
third ballot G.. w. Smiley received all
six votes and the mayor appointed
him.
The following committees were an
nounced by Mayor Slocum:}
Finance-Scott, Bergepthal, Bart.

Streets. Alleys, Sidewalks-Bartlett,
Scott, johnson.
Public safety-Hunter, Johnson,

The proper way of handling the Of
fees of chief of police and street com.
missioner was brought forward by the
mayor. From the gist of his remarks
we gathered that the present officer is
all right as street commissioner, but
no other man could work amlcably
with him with the authority of chief OF
police. It was decided to give Geo
Burrows the place as street commits
sioner, and give him, the same police
power only as night man.
On suggestion of Mayor Slocum all
appointments were upon motion con.
firmed.
Two sealed bids were in for city
team for coming season: J.. Saulter
for $50 per month for himself, team
and wagon; G. d. Booth had bid in
to furnish the same for $110 per month
Some discussion arose as to the feas.
ibility of keeping a man and team the
season through as it was stated by the
street commissioner that the work
could be accomplished in three
months. The matter was referred to
the committee on streets and alleys.
One bid was filed for official news
paper, that Of The Oakes Times. The
rates were the same las paid the Jour
nal for official printing the past year
but its reading brought forth the ami
mus of the mayor and newly elected
president of the council. It brought
down on the head Of the editor, who
was present, some catechism and .chas.

call to the attention of the farmers of
the county ways and means by which
l think they can accomplish greater
production. OF course, every farmer
can not do all of these things that are
suggested, but it is very probable that
every farmer can accomplish some of
the things mentioned. There are, how
ever, many suggestions being made
from other sources as to- what the
farmers should do in this state, and
what to grow in order to increase, our
food supply. Too much of this, how
ever, is done at long range without a
thorough knowledge of local condi-
tions. For this reason would suggest
that every farmer take under careful
advisement some of the suggestions
made before putting them into prac-
tice. Because of the great need of in
creasing our wheat supply there is
much encouragement given to increas-
ing wheat acreage as much as possible.
, Personally, do not believe that it is
wise for the farmers of Dickey county
to devote too great an acreage of their
land to wheat this year; knowing what
do about our conditions. l would sug-
gest the land be devoted to a larger
acreage of the other crops that are
more reliable than wheat to produce a
satisfactory yield. There are other
parts Of the state that are better adapt
ed for the production of wheat than
Dickey county, because of our soil
conditions and other factors essential
to its growth. The necessity for other
cereals and feed crops for the produc-
tion of livestock will be nearly as bad
ly needed. We must bear in mind that
maximum production can only come
from raising the products that con-
ditions are best adapted to. produce
with the greatest degree of certainty.
Thirteen Suggestions
Based on my knowledge of our con-
ditions suggest the following means
by which we can increase our produc-
tion. l believe every farmer should
feel it his duty to consider increasing
his production through some of these
means.
1. Raise the crops or produce prod
ucts for which our conditions are best
suited to produce with the greatest de-
gree Of certainty.
2. Use good seed. NOT. only seed of
good germination. but seed of the va
rieties that are best adapted for our
conditions to produce maximum yields.
For example, seed corn that will be
most sure to mature, etc.
%. Crop all available lands, provid-
ing labor can be obtained in order to
get the crop in the ground properly.
This means that consideration should
be given to the hiring Of more labor,
Eeyen. at a higher wage than has been
paid in the past, for the price that is
assured for the crops that will be
grown will warrant paying higher
wages.
1. Some Of the native grass land
devoted to hay should be plowed up
and put into crop. and the hay replaced
with other forage crops such as corn
millet, etc, as q much larger yield can
be produced<in this way.
81 Sow tame grasses to limited
extent. such as timothy and alfalfa
mixed. or other mixtures. with grain
to take the place Of native grass pas.
lures for next season. This will make
