What to Eat

Dr. Harvey W. Wiley told the Economic club of New York that if he could get the laboring men to listen to him he could double their wages for them by telling them what to eat He cited his own boys. two and four years of age. as more cheaply fed and better fed than any other two boys in the United States" Whole wheat and milk are the principal features of their diet.
 The 25-cent-a-day diet demonstration with 13 New York policemen was an un- qualified success. Nearly all gained in weight and all enjoyed their meals dur ing the entire three weeks. This is not an altogether remarkable achievement for many workingman's family of six members is compelled to spend less than $1.50 a day on the table The chief value of the demonstration was the we'll balanced diet that was provided a fea- ture that does not usually characterize the meals of those who are compelled to live cheaply.
 What We need to offset the high prices
 is education on the Fundamentals of nutri- tion and revival of the simple habits that prevailed a generation or two ago. We are the biggest meat eating nation
 in the world. If the meat supply con- tinues to decrease while the population increases, we shall have to change our habits. Government reports show de- cline of 100000 in the number of cattle other than milch cows and of 5000 900 in the number of sheep the last 10 years, while the population increased 15,OO0. GOO. If the warning nations of Europe are able to get along with meatless days would it not be a good plan for the American family occasionally to practice the same thing?

FAVOR OPEN SEASON
FOR WESTERN CATTLE

Manning, N. D., Oct. 23.--An open
season for stock is deemed a neces-
sity by A. F. Dopohoo, manager of
the Dunn County Shipping associa-
ton because of a large number of
animals being sacrificed owing to the
storage of feed throughout the
country.
unless something can be done to
save the young stock, Dunn county
is going to suffer a severe beef
shortage in the near future" said
Donohoo yesterday, following his re-
turn from the South st. Paul stock
yards.
Having heard that Stark county
adopted an open season during a
short feed winter a few years ago II
dawned on me that 1t would likely
be a good thing for us to consider
such in the present crisis. And with
this thought in mind, talked the
matter over with several of the
farmers OF this locality and they all
agreed that Ii would be the best
way out OF the difficulty.
Now If the residents of other por-
tions OF the county are Of the same
mind, ii might be wise step TO
circulate petitions, asking the coun-
ty commissioners to declare an open
season for Dunn county during the
coming winter or until such time as
the feed shortage has been reliev-
ed.
'The time is here to act If any
thing is to be done to relieve the
situation at once, and it would be
well for interested parties to get
busy in different parts Of the county
and get the petitions sin at the next
meeting Of the county board.

Lizards Give
Minot Doctor
Engine Trouble


Parshall, N. D., Oct. 20. - DIR.
George Hanson of Minot, driving
an Oakland six. heard his engine
missing fire. He jumped from
his seat and started to treat his
patient.
He felt Of his spark plugs but
there was good sign of life. Then
1t occurred to him that the
circulation was not right. DOC"
decided to diagnose the case most
carefully.
He probed into the gasoline
reservoir and found six Shiny,
badly decomposed lizards. The
grease from them caused a
film over the screen through
which the gasoline had to leave
the tank and retarded the
flow.
The doctor knows of no way
in which the lizards could have
gotten into the tank and claims
that for freak case Of engine
trouble this one takes the
cake.

LIGNITE MINERS
GET ST But COAL
SHORTAGE SEEN
Prospects Of Fuel Defici-
ency in Western Dis
trict, Bakes Says

Bismarck. N. D., Oct. 2s.-Despite
the fact that Ignite mining COM
panies are advertising wages as high
as 81 per day, western North Dakota
may find it difficult to obtain enough
native fuel this winter because of a
labor shortage, said Capt. I. P. Baker,
fuel administrator for North Dakota,
today.
THE relatively high price prevail
ing for Ignite coal-$2.50 at the
mouth of the mine-has greatly
stimulated production" said Captain
Baker. Every man who has a little
coal in his back yard is at work with
pick and powder. But it is impossi-
BILE to find sufficient labor. l don't
know why this condition should
exist. l can see no reason why any
one should not be glad to find a
winters job digging coal, with good
wages, a warm place in which to
work and so little danger as is con-
nected with coal-mining in North
Dakota
North Dakota's fuel dictator is still
of the impression that eastern North
Dakota will burn eastern fuel this
winter. Wyoming lump coal costs So
the ton at the mouth of the mine
and the freight rate to Bismarck is
50 more. 1--WE can't revolutionize
things in moment" said Captain
Baker. Our freight moves east
ward. The railroads must have
something to fill those cars when
they bring them back into the state
1t would be ridiculous to ask them to
return empty cars in order that they
may haul coal from Montana and
Wyoming. They will bring these cars
back filled with Illinois and Iowa coal
as they have been doing.
THE national government is do
ing it's best to assure North Dakota
and every other state an adequate
supply of coal. In every state we
have a fuel administrator and an
advisory board named by the gov
eminent. Soon we will have a
county administrator and advisory
board in every county. Then we will
huve an opportunity to discover just
what each county needs. 1t is USE
less to blame the elevator companies,
lumber yards and other local dealers
for not stocking up in the summer.
They couldn't have done it had they
wanted to. With the big manufac-
turers, railway companies, and the
standing at the mouth of
these eastern mines ready to take
every ton that comes out, with no
question about the price, and with
an immediate demand existing for
every ton OF that coal, We couldn't
expect that 1t would be shipped out
here where there is no immediate
need"

RYE ACREAGE IN STATE
INCREASED 100 PER CENT
Commissioner Of Agriculture Haaan
Says There's As Much Money in
This Crop AS In Wheat.

Bismarck, N. D.. Get. 23.-The fact
that winter rye acreage in North Da-
lSota has been increased 100 per cent
will tend to cut down next springs
wheat acreage, in the opinion of John
N. Hagan, commissioner of agricul-
ture and labor.
Farmers have gone in unusually
strong for rye. 1t is a popular crop
for several reasons" said Mr.. Hagan.
TT spreads the harvest over a
longer period and does not make
such a great demand for labor at a
season of the year when il always is
short, and when 1t probably will be
unusually so next year. There is
practically as much money in 1t as
there is in wheat, and II has been
an exceptionally certain crop of re-
cent years. There is already seeded
fully twice as many acres of rye as
we harvested this year. do not be-
lieve that the fact that many North
Dakota wheat farmers will devote
their attention largely to rye next
year will work any hardship. There's
no question as to the food values Of
rye, and ii will do all OF us good IL
we learn to eat more corn and rye"

HEAVY ARMAMENT FOR
THE NEWER AIRPLANE
Less Stress Being Laid On Light
Fighting Machines, and Thrilling
Dusls Are Scarce.
INV AssocIated Press.l

Washington, Oct. 23.-The day Of
thrilling air duels between individual
aviators over the fighting lines in
Europe appears to be passing. Both
official and unofficial advices recently
have shown increasing use Of heavier
machines with greater armament and
the development of air machines ap-
pears to be paralleling closely the
development Of fighting ships.
There are indications that amend
ment already has been necessary in
the program for creating the huge
air fleets provided for by congress,
While there will be no lack Of small
fighting planes, 1t is probable that
stress is being laid now on the
bombing craft and upon increasing
the speed of these heavier machines
and giving them adequate arma-
ment.
Already the engineers who design
ed the liberty motor are at work on
plans for even more powerful plants,
it is understood. At the same time the
liberty motor is now provided at a
rate that assures a sufficient supply
when American flyers are assembled
in force over the fighting lines.
