EFF1clBcY COMMISSION BUSY.
Bsard Appointed By Governor Speed
ily Gets Down to
Work.

The Efficiency Commission, recent
" appointed by Governor Frazier, at
tt first meeting, held ,at Jamestown
on April 9th, 1917, adopted the fol-
lowing resolutions, which it asks the
nexspapers Of the state kindly to
give publication in their news COL
umns.
Be It resolved by the Efficiency
Commission Of North Dakota:-
That the farmers Of this state are
commended for the great and patri-
otto efforts they have already made
70 increase the production Of food sup
plies and that they are urged to con-
.tinue these efforts until the last pos
sible acre is put into crop. We urge
that an especial effort be made to
break new land and SOW it in fax and
that each farmer put in a. large a po-
tato acreage as he can harvest with
out waste under normal conditions.
That the United States government
10 urged to guarantee fair minimum
price for all agricultural products for
. fixed period Of time in order that
Al the manifold risks Of their occupa-
toin may not fan upon the farmers.
Sueh minimum price. should take in
to consideration not only the cost of
production but also the decrease in
the fertility Of the soil.
That the farmers and stock men
are urged not to sell or kill immature
cattle. hogs, or sheep, and that lambs
b carried over until next spring in
order to get the wool clip.
That the national government is
urged to rsgnlate the buying and
selling Of farm products during war
times 10 that the speculation therein
may be reduced to q minimum and
that the boarding Of food material
for speculative purposes be restrict
isd4by law.
That the louse wives Of the state
are urged to buy and use only those
amounts of food required for ade-
quate nourishment Of their families,
to control waste in every possible
manner and to live simply. They
are especially urged to cooperate with
the Gsneral Federation Of Women's
Clubs and Other Women's organiza-
tions In increasing efficiency and con-
sssrving ths food supply Of the nation.
That the national government is
urged to prohibit absolutely the man
ufacture and sale Of fermented and
spurious liquors for beverage pur-
poses during the continuance of the
war. The people Of this state are
willing. to raise food for the nation,
but draw the line on toiling early and
late 70 raise grain to be used in max
ing booze.
That the farmers are urged to CO.
operate with the various county or
carnations Of this commission in the
distribution Of the labor needed for
harvesting md threshing. The sup
ply Of such labor when and where
needed is tp be the main endeavor Of
this commission but such endeavor
will be useless without the hearty
assistance Of the farmers Of the state
That the railroads entering this
state are urged to grant low round
fare rate to farm laborers and to
give their assistance in securing q
plentiful supply Of such labor. They
are further urged to furnish the use
pf their right Of ways for garden pur.

Charity workers who demand fifty fifty
entertainments are charity workers in name
only. They are in reality harpies who prey
upon benevolence. Ii is but fair TO pay
a fair wage to people who are obliged TO
eafn their living, for services in preparing
charity entertainments, but il should he
a fair a and nothing more. The per-
cen,age basis is hardly fair to those who
give literally because of the merits of the
cause TO which they donate. II is even less
fair TO the cause which should benefit by
such liberality.

COTTON SHOULD ENRICH THE SOUTH

Adding TO its earliest function of pro-
viding clothing for mankind, that of pro-
viding food products of great importance.
besides its contribution Of one of the most
important factors in the production of war
munitions. the cotton plant now peform~
n highly important part in the production
of fqed. Not so many years ago, the only
part of the plant that was valued was it,
fleecy staple, which was spun into fabrics
for the manufacture of clothing. The seed
was considered useless. and was burned in
,,craar to remove it from the space which il
encountered. Today cotton seed sells at
$40 per ton. The oil which it yields i
equal to the famed olive oil of Spain. Cot
ton seed Eard is one Of the most important
commodities Of commerce. Cotton seed
flour i recognized a a valuable food pro-
duet. Cotton seed cake j. a staple stock
feed. And now we have Il new use for
cotton seed flour in the manufacture of
sausage. Three parts meat To one of cot
ton seed flour are the proportions. These
sausages are said TO he fully a nutritious
and palatable a those made entirely OF
meat, and the cost i reduced by abou.
eight cents y pound.
Thus the great product of the Southern
plantation plays a part of constantly in
creasing Importance in the economic prog
rcss of the world.
Verify, the day Of King Cotton j. here.
The staple is worth % cents per pound TO-
day and may 20 higher.
Tbs South produces by far the greatest
proportion Of this wonderful plant. which
clothes the world, provides food for man
and beast. and furnishes a most important
part of the war munitions which, in the
hands Of our armies and those of our allies.
presently will bring Germany to her knees. |
We wonder why the South does not reap
the commercial reward which should be
hers a the producer of this most import |
ant single product of the soil on earth.

our public schools, such as my fam

tc solve the problem, but this is a
long ways off. We must work, for
tlse present, along other lines. The
means must afford an appeal to all
We possess but two ways-profes-
sional and amateur sport. Neither
has as yet appealed to all citizens,
tfo the latter has made amazing and
all iut unnoticed advances.

too far west to be considered ''radi-

invested in golf links more than ten
times as many play golf as use this

When this war Is =. over sport IN
America will come into its own. We
VIII not discard professional sport or
our intensive intercollegiate sport, as
some advocate. Each has place and
a use. But we will further amateur
sport as never before. Our big men,
the leaders in business and profess
slonal lines, already recognize the
benefit to all from sport, especially
BY means of golf. The well-to- do
have practically solved their physical
welfare problems by this means. But
tie job cut out Tor us is TO place tho
benefits OF physical training within
reach of the poorer classes. Big COR

broad field the need of which has
