GOVERNMENT CONCERNED
OVER FOOD SHORTAGE

This is the time when everybody
seems interested in the farmers busi-
ness and this is not strange when we
recognize the fact that in the last
analysis every other industry is de-
pendent on the product Of the farms.
Our Nation has become involved in
q worlds war and at time that is
following long period Of struggle
for supremacy by the foreign nations
which have made great drain on our
foodstuffs in supplying the demand Of
the warning powers SO that we become
involved under an unusual condition
as relating to our food supp y. The
government at Washington is more
concerned over the food situation
than over any other phase Of the war
preparedness, and it is unquestionably
up to the farmers Of the country TO
do all in their power to supply this
pation and the people Of our allies in
preventing y food shortage which =

ity conformed to the issues involved
in the 1916 campaign and redeemed
the pledges enunciated by and en-
bodied in the (League) Republican
platform" The places suggested for
the debate are we'll enough scattered
throughout the county to enable
majority of the voters to hear the is
sues and learn the facts, so that the
people may definitely settle in their
minds which side is in the wrong con-
cerning the disregarding of the CAM
paign issues. Now, will the League
leaders in Bottineau county make
good on their contention? AS in the
matter Of legislative membership
from this county, the ratio stands four
to one in their favor, my challenge is
one that they should "embrace with
glad acclaim" I still hold out the
challenge for debate at the pro-
posed picnic at Bottineau in June.

NO POLITICS IN ADMIN
ISTRATION OF GAME LAWS

New Rockford, N. D.,-Every gun
club in the state, and every true
sportsman is invited to join the game
and Fish board in aiding in enforc-
ing the law, in preserving, propagat-
ing and protecting game and fish.
DIR. Chas. MacLachlan, president of
the board, has asked every newspaper
in the state to give publicity to the
fact that the board invites every gun
club and every sportsman to submit
the name Of one or more responsible
men to act as special deputy game
wardens in the various localities of
the state. The gun clubs are asked
to submit as many names as may be
deemed necessary to enforce the law
in the locality where clubs are main
tanned.
"There is going to be no politics in
the administration of the game and
fish laws during the next two years."
says President MacLachlan. "We ask
the cooperation Of every citizen who
is interested in increasing and protec-
ting the game and fish in the state. "
Recommendations for appointment
Of special deputy game wardens are
to be sent to Secretary George M.
Hogue, Steel, N. Oak. The board will
meet May 18th, at which time all rec
concentrations received will be acted
upon.

URGES TILLAGE OF
ALL STATE LANDS

Bismarck, April 27.-Every. tract of
land in the state is requested to be
titled this season by Governor Fraz-
ier who before leaving for Washing
ton issued the following statement:
"Owners and those controlling real
estate are urged to make every ef-
fort to have uncultivated tracts made
use Of this year.
"There are in every city and on
every farm tracts of land that might
be utilized by someone in producing
food that will be so much needed dur
ing the coming year. It is especially
urged that the boys be encouraged to
till a small area on their own account
and thus give them chance to be OF
real service to their country and at
the same time create in them a spirit
of self-confidence and independence.
"Let the spirit of unselfish coop

NEWBURG N. p. MEETING *
ATTRACTED BIG CROWD

A crowd that packed the Newburg
hall to it's capacity attended the Nom
partisan meeting held in Newburg
Saturday night. The large attendance,
in spite of the busy season for the
farmers, showed plainly the interest
taken in the Farmers League. Many
from east of the Mouse river drove
long distances to attend the meeting.
The meeting was called to order by
Representative Stair, whereupon Thos.
Hennessy was elected chairman.
Mr.. Stair was the first speaker and
he devoted himself principally to q
discussion of H. B. al. He stated
that the opponents of the bill never
would discuss the merits Of it, but
satisfy themselves with decrying it as
socialistic. His remarks were closely
followed and brought forth many
rounds of applause.
Representative Hagan was called
next and he was given a "tiger" be-
fore he started to speak, showing that
the farmers have not been misled by
the lying Misrepresentation Of II. b.
"a since it was introduced.
Mr.. Hagan spoke of the working OF
that famous body, the "secret eau
GUS" and how all legislation was
handled by the league members. His
remarks were very instructive and the
audience showed their appreciation by
the applause given him.
One feature of the meetings was the
questions askedIby the crowd of both
speakers and the quick response to
same.
After the meeting number OF
farmers renewed their subscription
to the league and others paid cash to
recall their postdated checks.
If the spirit of the rest of Botti-
neau county is as favorable towards
the Nonpartisan League as around
Newburg, it will take more than an
Anti-Socialist League and few gang
ridden newspapers to prevent ever a
greater victory in the next election
than that Of last fall.

FARMERS WANT
SQUARE DEAL
Governor Frazier Urges Price Fix
ing of Food Stuffs By
Government.

Washington, May Ito make
available quickly an appropriation for
a food survey, the department of agri-
culture today asked, and the senate
and house agricultural committees
agreed to have the administration food
control legislation reintroduced in
congress in separate bills.
One measure, expected to pass with
out delay, will carry a $25,OO0,OOO
appropriation for the survey and will
provide for charging the depart
ment's staff to permit supervision of
seeding operations; another will in
clude provisions for licensing and con-
trolling storage and distributing con-
Germs.
Both the house and senate commit
tees continued hearings during the
day. Secretary Houston, before the
house committee, urged prompt action
on the legislation proposed and out
lined the governments price-fxing
measures.
The senate committee heard Cover
nor Frazier of North Dakota, who de-
clared he believed farmers of his state
would not oppose minimum price fix
ing. Prices have been set by gamb-
lers, he said, and farmers, he thought,
would not object to the government
fixing them if prices are made fair
and equitable.
The Federal trade commission again
today heard representatives of state
food boards on food control through
out the country. Most of the dele
gates blamed high prices on middle
men. Some said a labor shortage had
much to do with short crops and sug-
gestions were made that orientals be
imported for farm work.
The food problem will be taken up
tomorrow at a conference with repre-
sentatives of state defense councils
with the national defense council.

ANOTHER CHALLENGE.

The Bottineau Courant, the accred-
tied organ of the Nonpartisan Leag-
uers in this county, seems to resent
the suggestion that both the Town
ley-ites and the Anti -Townleyites be
heard at the proposed meeting in Bot
tineau. It very much prefers that its
own speakers have the exclusive right
to do all the talking, without fear of
having the widest statements that the
speakers may make challenged by the
opposition. To use the Courant's own
words, Mr.. Rishoff "likely has his
reasons"
The Courant also demands that do
my own explaining; that I am respon-
sible to the people Of Bottineau coun-
ty for my actions as Senator. BY the
same token the House members from
Bottineau county are also responsible
for their attitude towards the planks
in the Republican League platform;
and their attitude was at variance
with mine. If it is my duty to per-
sonally enter a debate to uphold my
actions, it logically follows that it
must be the duty Of the House mem
bers to uphold the course they took.
Acting on the contention Of the Cour-
ant crowd, hereby challenge Messrs.
Stair, Hagan, Miller and Magnuson,
individually or collectively, to meet
me in joint debate at Bottineau, Sou--
il. Westhope, Lansford and Willow
City; the question on which would
uphold the affirmative being as fol-
lows: Resolved, that the action Of the
Ssnats majority and the House minor

REGENT BOARD
IS SUSTAINED
Supreme Court Decides in Favor of
Old Board in Famous Regents
Case.

Bismarck, April 28.-In the longest
decision handed down in it's history,
the state supreme court today denied
the petition of the state in quo war
ranto proceedings brought to oust
Lewis, Crawford, Frank White, J. D.
Taylor, Emil Scow and J. A. Power
from the Offices Of members of the
state board of regents.
Under the decision the old board of
regents will continue in office, includ-
ing the two members whose terms ex-
pire in July of this year, unless fur
ther action is brought to test the case
relative to these two members.
"The provision in section 2 of chap
ter 237, laws of 1915 Commonly
known as the state board of regents
act) empowering the governor to NOM
mate and the senate to confirm
nominations for the offices of men,
bers of the state board of regents
during the same session Of the legis-
lature at which the act creating the
offices were enacted, dose not conflict
with or contravene the initiative and
referendum amendment of section 25
Of the state constitution" ruled the
supreme court.
The decision was that of a divided
court, Chief Justice Bruce, and JUS
tices Robinson and Christianson writ
ing the majority decision while JUS
tices Birdzell and Grace dissented.

inion while the main opinion was

MANY DEBATES
ARE PROMISED
Senator Sandstrom Proposes Series
of Debates With BOttineau Coun-
ty House Delegation.

AS will be noted elsewhere in this
issue, Senator Sandstrom proposes to
engage in series of debates with the
members Of the house of representa-
tives from Bottineau county.
It is quite likely that the challenge
will be accepted and a series of in
teresting meetings arranged for in the
different towns suggested in the chal-
lenge.
The question for debate, as proposed
by Senator Sandstrom, places his op-
ponents in rather an embarrassing po-
sition. The original proposition was
to discuss the league platform, and
not the republican platform. Nonpar-
tisans are not partisan. Two of the
house members of Bottineau county
have in the past always been demo-
Gratis. The other two have been af-
fiiliated with the republican party.
In a partisan discussion they would
naturally stand divided. However,
now they are all Nonpartisans and it
is on the platform of the Nonpartisan
League they stand on common ground,
not as republicans or democrats.
It is to be hoped that arrangements
will be made for a discussion of the
Nonpartisan League platform, as was
contemplated from the very start,
in place of discussion Of the Repub-
lican party-which was never con-
templated.
The Courant hopes to be able to
make definite announcement of COM
pleted arrangements for this series of
interesting debates in our next issue.
It might be we'll to arrange for
some disinterested third party to
bring the matter down to 'sbrass
tacks." Propositions and counter pro-
positions through the newspapers Of
the county week after week does not
give promise Of ever getting any
where.

A DELIBERATE LIAR.

In the issue of April 26 of that pros
tituted sheet-the Bottineau County
News, Frank C. F'alkenstein, its Icing
editor, said that L. L. Stair and the
writer had man groomed for the ap-
pointment of game warden, other than
Peter Scott. r
When Mr.. Falkenstein wrote that
article he knew he was lieing and lie
ing maliciously.
Neither Mr.. Stair or the writer has
ever had anyone else in view for the
position and have never talked of any
one.
The writer signed Mr.. SCOTS pc
tition and Mr.. Scott tells me he never
saw Mr.. Stair to ask him to sign his
petition and has no reason to believe
that Mr.. Stair would not sign it.
cannot conceive how a man can
sink so low as to continually lie and
misrepresent a great movement like
the Farmers Nonpartisan League and
never give anyone connected with it
in an official capacity any credit for
being conscientious in their work.
Falkenstein is superintendent, I be-
lieve, of Sunday School in this city
and goes there every Sunday with his
bible under his arm, l presume to in
struct the youth who attends there in
the way they should grow.
I am of the firm opinion that these
same children, when they find out
that their instructor who leads them
in prayer, is a canting hypocrite
whose religion is for Sunday only and
not for the other six days in dealing
with his fellow man, are apt to lose
respect for and belief in the teachings
given them in their Sunday School.
Now Falkenstein, if this is not
enough I may come again, as I have
known you since 1904, in the days that
a famous political boss ruled this
county and you were his subservient
tool and you were willing to kiss his
toe for his thirty pieces Of silver that
he would hand out to you. Now Mr..
Falkenstein, who is the liar, you or I !?
There is States Attorney in this
county. Get busy.

special legislation ard rightfully so
when it is consit.-r I'd his responsible
ity to the rest of the people and no
one in right frame of mind be-
grudges such benefits as the laws ac
cord this class Of our citizens, at the
same time the farmer has his part to
perform. He rightfully expects pro-
lection Of the governing power in his
property and in the pursuit Of his
calling and such protection will be
furnished, he in return do all in his
ability to furnish from the production
of his farms as much Of the needed
foodstuffs as they will produce.
In one respect that is somewhat
neglected in this region is the produc-
tion Of corn which should not be ov-
erlooked this season. It has been
demonstrated that we can in this To-
cality in almost every year produce
enough Of this feed to largely win
ter the idle horses of the farm as we'll
as the other farm stock and by plant
ing large acreage Of corn after the
grain crop is in the ground much of
the grain otherwise used for feed for
farm stock can be diverted to the use
of the human family.
Good corn fodder, to say nothing
of matured ear corn, will winter farm
stock in good condition and if straw
is depended upon for roughage con-
siderable grain must be fed to keep
stock in equally good condition. We
should then put out a large acreage
of corn for fodder and silage and
plant field to flint corn for hogging
down for every farmer is being urged
by the government to look after this
the meat supply Of the family.
In 1913 we reached the altitude in
corn output, but that year was dis
astrous to corn owing to repeated
frosts but this was not peculiar to this
region, last season demonstrated the
wonderful adaptability of this local
ity for the production Of corn which
made a large tonnage of feed, even
though planted late and this year the
corn acreage should again mount up
to the $4,000 acre mark in this county
and in this way take the place Of the
expensive summer fallow method OF
cleaning the land and conservation OF
the moisture of which we have such
an abundant supply this spring, most
of our seed houses have a supply OF
good seed at reasonable prices and
there was never a time when the corn
crop was of so much Importance as
now in the way taking the. place
of grain ration for farm stock and
thus making more bushels of grain
available for human food for which
both oats and barley can be used to
make up for the wheat shortage.
A good price seems assured for all
the grains and every assistance, fin
ancial and otherwise, is being design
ed to assist in this very necessary in
crease in production.
