UNDER Way THIS WEEK
Make Effort to Raise $4,000 Fund
Clearing institution of All
Debt,

Work will be begun this week by
Pres. ]. A. Aasgaard and a committee
from the Moorhead Commercial club
to raise the $50, 900 guarantee to wipe
out the debt of Concordia college The
plan Is to take subscriptions payable
in three annual installments In the
falls Of the years 1917-18 and 10.
This guarantee must be raised and
accepted before June 1 to make the ar
rangement for making the college
course at Concordia permanent. The
committee on inspection, that recon-
mended the consolidation of the Park
Region college course with Concordia,
will make its report at the general
meeting of the church bodies and
recommend an appropriation equal to
the interest on $15O,000. This ap-
preparation cannot be voted until the
college is out of debt
Concordia will be the center Of
interest Of two districts to be formed

bodies of the church at st. Paul early

among the most prosperous people in
the territory included.
Applications have already been re-
ceived at Concordia for rooms for stu

In a statement accompanying its
report today the agricultural depart
ment declared that although the win
ter wheat crop condition is the poor
est on record, crop conditions other
wise are favorable.
The extent of blowing and plant
ing done by May IT, the statement
said, was above the average.
In 1912 the winter wheat crop fell
below 400,000,0 900 bushels, the lowest
since 1904, but Notwithstanding this
low production of winter wheat, the

Urge Use of CornmeaI.
The department is making every eff
fort to educate the American people
to a greater use Of cornmcal for bread
Department officials believe America
must turn to corn to release wheat for

Herbert G. Hoover, chairman of the
food committee of the Council of Ma
tional Defense, who is strongly in fav-
or OF q more limited use of wheat in
this country, appeared before the SEN
ate agricultural committee yesterday
and urged q separate department of
the government to deal with the food
question. He recommended absolute
government control of certain staples,
particularly grain and sugar. He ask
ed prompt action on the administra-
tons food bills.
Capitalization of food control, Mr..
Hoover told the committee, is vital.
Europe, he said, had found maximum
price fixing failure, but minimum
price fixing had been a better success.
Bills advocated by Mr. Hoover give
the president and the department of
agriculture direct control of the coun-
try's food resources. Since Mr.. Hooy-
er's return from Europe there have
may be changed to allow creation of
lister their more drastic provisions.
Price fixing and distribution problems
will be dealt with by this body II Gre
ated.
The bills as drawn give the agricui-
tural department power to reduce
wheat consumption to some extent by
an increase of the amount of
the wheat kernel used in the -four
Europe is using a larger percentage
now.
Well founded predictions that the
government crop report would prove

Moorhead News
TO CROP
IS INVOLVED IN
TANGLED ACTION
Series of Mortgages Being
Scrutinized by Judge Par
sons Today.

This morning the trial Of a case,
involving the crop raised in 1915 on
the farm later purchased by Finch
Bros, was begun before Judge VIII
liam l. Parsons.
The title OF the case is Lavisa c.
Folsom and Stella Steele, doing bust
ness as the J. B. Folsom Co. VS.. The
First National bank of Moorhead. II
appears that John T. Smith was the
tenant of Miller Bros. who owned the
farm. At the time it was sold to
Finch Bros. the Folsom Co. held a
mortgage against the land. Smith,
the tenant. had given the Millers a
mortgage on the crop to secure the
rent Of the farm This mortgage was
later transferred to the Folsom Co.
Smith had also given a crop mort
gage, to the First National bank of
Moorhead for seed and other advances.
The dispute now Is over the DISPOSE
ton OF the crop, the Folsom Co. claim
ing the bank has money belonging to
1t; and Smith claiming that he had
settled the balance of the Miller mort
gage. The amount of the claim with
interest is about $500.
The Folsom Co. is represented by
F. II. Peterson and Chas. s. Marden
and Edgar b Sharp is the attorney
for the First National bank.

AMERICA MUST
PAY With BLOOD
Roosevelt Urges Immediate
Dispatch of Troops to
France. y
rRv Associated Press.l

New York, May s.-Having failed in
time OF peace to prepare for war.
Theodore Roosevelt said in speech
here, the United States and the
entente allies will pay for this act
OF folly" before the war ends. Mean
while, he urged Americans must bear
themselves manfully in. the conflict,
and pay with our blood" sending to
the front as rapidly as possible a
great force Of lighting men.
Talking to q Brooklyn audience,
members Of the Kings county Repub-
lican committee and their guests, the
former president discussed the coun-
tryS participation in the war in its
military, social and industrial phases.
He suggested Incorporation OF the un-
married men of the national guard of
the states into regiments filed out
either by the draft or from volunteers
from the exempted classes, and the
dispatch Of these men to France or
England for the period Of intensive
training preparatory to taking their
places on the firing line. 9nt4
Col. Roosevelt emphasized necessity
for the practice of economy and avoid
ance of waste; said there should be
no improper proft-making, but that
reasonable profits should not be elm
mated: discussed methods Of financ-
ing the war; and asserted that the
great problems which confront the ma
ton could not be solved, 'in a spirit
Of class greed" with capital and labor
not in partnership.
Reiterating his approval OF obliga-
tory military training and service the
colonel again urged use OF volunteers
not included in the draft. saying the
men could be placed at the front with
in. ninety days.
ANY attempt to keep our men here,
and train them for a year before send
ing them over" he said, would mean
that we would rightly awaken the
scorn OF our allies for the delay, and
that the men trained here and not at the
theatre of war would be imperfectly
trained from the standpoint of modern
warfare"

Peg MANAGER
IN FARGO TODAY
With HIS TEAM
Only Three of Last Years
Championship Winnipeg
Team Remains.
FENCE CREW HAS
BEEN DISPERSED
Turner Arrives to Play 3rd
for Fargo Kielty Releas-
ed to Winnipeg.

Charles Moll owner of the Winnipeg
team, led his 1917 pennant chasers into
the city today and they are mixing it
with Denny Sullivan's colts at Moor
head park this afternoon.
THE present Northern league cir
cult is far better than last year." Mr..
Moll said today. I'VE are getting away
from the long expensive jumps and
believe we have towns that will sup
port good baseball.
Warren is booked for Sunday
games mostly and there is splendid
baseball sentiment in that neighbor-
hood. Warren should be able to pro-
duce enough results in the box Office
to justify the hackers Of the team.
"Minot is a live wire town. I know
that. There Is no question in my mind
about the kind of support the fans of
that town will give. We know what
Winnipeg and Fargo Moorhead will
do"
Mr.. MoIl has a team composed
largely of youngsters. OF his last year
championship outfit, he has only three
left. They are Stevenson, pitcher;
Conroy, shortstop, and Moore, the big,
peppery catcher.
Moll arrived in Fargo short a third
baseman and Manager Sullivan re-
leased Kielty to the Winnipeg team.
Moll announced the following list of
players:
Stevenson, Hickey, Malone and
Buckley, pitchers; Moore, catcher;
Ollerman, first base; Munich, second
base; Conroy, shortstop; Kielty, third
base: Reiter, center field: Luke, left
field. Mol will play a pitcher in the
other outfield job.
Fargo fans will heave a sigh Of re-
lief as they look over this list and
miss such names as Hank Miller,
company. The Pegs still have Steven
son and Moore, both dangerous hit
ters and crack all round players, but
Winnipeg will not bust the fences"
with the same old regularity as last
year, unless Moll has performed a
miracle and picked another wrecking
crew.
DR.. Sullivan will start the season
tomorrow with the following list Of
players: Boardman, johnson, Nc
Laughlin, Moore, Hasbrook, futile,
Thielman and Waswo. From this list
the Fargo manager will release three
pitchers to Warren tomorrow. The
Minnesota town is not satisfied with
the pitchers secured and Sullivan,
having more than he needs, will he6
them out.
The rest or the players on the Fargo
list to start the season are: Turner,
third base: Debus, shortstop: Dough
erty, second base; Boyle, first base;
Miller, left field; Meixell, center field;
Sullivan and Durham, right field;
Bachant and White, catchers.
Turner, the new third baseman,
formerly with the Three-I. league, ar
rived this morning and Sullivan Is
now we'll satisfied with his team in
every department. Turner rounds out
an inf1eld which gives good promise
Of classy work.
The Northern league season will
open tomorrow, Fargo-Moorhead trav-
cling to Warren in the morning for
the opening battle. The same teams
will return to Moorhead park Friday
for the first game of the local season.
1t is probable that Charlie Boardman
will throw the opening home battle.

New York, May George Burns,
the Giants outflelder, Is displaying
such excellent speed and form for so
early a season of the race that local
fans are moved to wonder. Muggsy
McGraw has explained that Burns
great playing is the result of the hard
work he did at the training camp this
spring.
While south with the team Burns
showed an, appetite for hard work
that amazed his teammates. He did
many extra stunts that the rest of
them would never consider. McGraw
reports that George frequently stay
ed around the field playing at short or
third when all the rest OF the boys
had gone back to the hotel and no one
was there but Muggsy and the rock
les.
Burns was a bit overweight when
he reported in the spring and seemed
unusually anxious to get into the
best possible shape. All of the
Giants worked hard to shape them
selves but Burns did them all one
better every time. Instead Of TAX
ig the shortest way back to the
hotel he took the roundabout path
that made the trip a half mile longer.
And instead Of merely walking as the
rest of them did he went all the way
very often on the run and sometimes
made the trip, twice a day.
McGraw is a believer in the value
of perfect condition for ball players.
He says that players should be as
willing to condition themselves per-
fectly as boxers or other athletes. He
is sure that Burns hard work this
spring will benefit him all through
the season and not merely in fielding
alone. "A player with Burns natural
batting ability should never fail under
the 800 mark" says McGraw, and in
his present great shape I'm willing to.
bet that he'll make better showing
than ever with his bat this season"
