NATIONS LIFE
DEPENDS UPON
WAR; OUTCOME
Secretary McAdoo Delivered Lib
erty Day Address at Atlanta
to Assist Sale
FREEDOM OF SEAS IS
ESSENTIAL TO PEOPLE

Atlanta, Ga, Oct 24.-Germany's ef
forts to keep American ships off the
high seas through her ruthless sub
aimed at the prosperity of American
farms and of American business, Sec
retary McAdoo declared today in a
Liberty day address here. : - = -.~, ~
After reminding his hearers that
America went to war in 1912 to vim
dicate her right to the freedom OF
the seas and had steadfastly main
tanned it since then, he continued:
Right Essential.
"That right is essential to Ameri.
cas- life and security because we have
always produced more than we can
consume at home. And the very life
of our people depends upon their abil
ity at all times to sell that surplus
in the open markets of the world"
The German emperor "had been led
by disloyal people in this country tc
believe that America never would
fight" Secretary McAdoo continued.
'IIad America submitted and kept
her ships off the sea, discord and
discomfort among American people
would have followed" he said, and the
German emperor by one stroke of his
pen would have accomplished "more
destruction than he could accomplish
with all the armies and navies of the
German empire"
Yellow Blood.
The secretary then turned to ruth.
less submarine warfare and referred
to helpless men and women drowned
at sea.
"Some men have said that America
has no justification for this war with
Germany. If there be an American
who, knowing this record, says we
did not have justification for war with
Germany, then yellow blood flows in
his veins; he hasn't any red blood in
him."

Death Penalty for all
Traitors To Be Lnsistsd Upon
By Bismarck Home Guard

Choosing as its commissioned Off
GERS three men who have seen actual
warfare in the Philippines, and who
have served for long periods in the
standing army of the United States
and foreign countries or in the North
Dakota national guard, the Bismarck
home guard formally organized last
evening at a meeting marked by in
tense enthusiasm and patriotic fervor.
The purpose of the Bismarck home
guard, as stated in it's bylaws, is to
promote loyalty to the flag of our
country by the exposure of enemy
atrocities: the prevention and putting
down of sedition; The suppression OF
peace propaganda of any sort. and at
any time which might give peace and
comfort to the enemy; the enforce
ment of the death penalty in Amer
lea against spies and traitors; the
stopping of all trade with the enemy,
directly or through neutral channels;
the defeat of Germany, and to aid
the Red Cross in casualty and protec-
tion.
Every one of these clauses was care
fully discussed and adopted after SOL
emn deliberation by men of sufficient
caliber to enforce their declarations
to the letter. More than 70 guards
men attended the meeting, and they
came from every rank in Bismarck's s
business, professional and public life.
They were men who have distin-
guished themselves as good citizens,
and whose presence in the home guard
is the best evidence of the sincerity
and loftiness of its purpose.

YEAR HAS BEEN
IMPORTATION
FOR BUILDING
Much Construction Done in Capt.
tai City in Spite of Unsatis-
factory Conditions
NEW HOME OF OVERLAND
TO BE REAL ORNAMENT

Capital City paving operations are
drawing to a close for the season.
Paving district No. 2 Is not entirely
completed, but unsettled weather has
made the laying of further concrete
unadvisable, and unless it becomes
much warmer it is probable that moth
ing will be done with Fourth street
until next spring. The work already
done makes Bismarck the best paved
city in North Dakota, and with II
block of new work, for which peti-
tiOns have been received and the com.
pletion of the present district next
spring, the Capital City will not have
block of unpaved streets within a
half mile OF the central business Sec
ton. In this work will have been eX-
pended, when it is finally completed,
in the neighborhood of a million dol
lars.
In spite of the fact that the year
has not been a satisfactory one for
general building work, necesSitating
the abandonment of a number of i'm
portant projects which would have
made 1917 the Capital City's biggest
construction year, number of sub
s:antial structures are now nearing
comp, elton or are we'll under way.
The Bismarck public library, build.
ing of handsome design which will
cost in the neighborhood of $25,O00
is practically finished, and plans are
being made for it's dedication.
H. w. Richholt is completing a
two story business building on Sew.
enth street, and substantial addi'
ton has been made to the Haggart
building on Broadway.
The Logan building on Third street,
the walls of which are now going up,
will be thoroughly modern business
home and will mark another import
ant point in the development of this
thoroughfare, one of Bismarch's earli'
est commercial centers, but which for
a great many years stood still so far
as progressive construction is con-
cerned.
The most important structural un
dertaking Of the year is the new home
for the Overland, being erected by
the Lahr Motor Sales Co. at the cor
ner of Thayer and Fourth. This build
ing, which is to be three stories high
and of modern fireproof construction
will be one of the finest automobile
assembling and distributing plants in
North Dakota It embodies many
novel features which are new to this
section of the northwest, and with its
glazed brick and tile fronts and three
floors of handsome display windows
it will be a distinct ornament to the

Louis Lindberg has the general con
tract. The first floor, basement piers
and walls have been poured, the mair

Chicago Eats Alfalfa Bread
7oHelp Cut Down High Cost
How food Prices haue Scared

The latest official compilation Of
prices announced today shows prin-
cipal articles of food as whole 6 per
cent higher on August Is, 1914, than
they were on that date in 1915. There
was drop OF per cent in 1915, but
in 1916, prices advanced II per cent
and during this year they have jump
ed 8 per cent. From July to August
this year, there was a 2 per cent in.
crease in the combined prices of the
principal articles of food.
Flour prices in August were two and
one quarter times what they were in
August, 1913. The increase was 1870
per cent. Corn meal advanced almost
as much with an increase Of l2O per
cent. Potatoes advanced 81 per cent !;
sugar II per cent, lard 72 per cent and
pOrkch0ps 5S per cent.
During the year ending August Is,
onions were the only article to de-
crease in price. Corn meal doubled in
price, flour advanced 70 per cent;
beans SO per cent; and other articles
to a lesser degree.

had thought.
When leaders of the District Of Co.

President Wilson today presumably to
get his subscription to the loan, they
learned he had subscribed for $4,000

November IA. The president bought
$40 CO0 worth of the first issue direct

per cent increase in production during
the current year as compared with
the year 1916, caused principally by
the inability of transportation facili-
ties to accommodate the greatly In
creased war traffic, and the much en-
larged consumption of coal in what
are called war industries, fuel deal
ers throughout North Dakota, and par
ticularly those in the Red River val
ley, are requested to obtain the larg-
est possible supply and to urge the
use by consumers of domestic Ignite
to take the place of anthracite. DR..
Babcock is authority for the state
ment that North Dakota Ignite can be
used to good advantage in stoves de-
signed to burn hard coal, if proper
care be taken. It is imperative that
the use of anthracite be most cautious
throughout the northwest.

stock that come up from TIE second
cutting. My experience in feeding
cattle and hogs with sorghum is the
same as in feeding mules and horses.
1t will not pay you to let your cattle
or hogs run on your sorghum, and
eat it down, because they will tear
down and destroy twice as much as
they eat; but rather you should cut j:
and feed it to both cattle and hogs
the same as you do to your mules.
we fed last summer for three months
about 200 head of hogs that were
running on a pasture, and kept them
in good condition until we were ready
to turn them in on chufas and pea
nuts the first of October, while if
we had turned them in on the same
amount of sorghum it would not have
lasted one month.
/ do not believe it is possible to
make good hay from sorghum in
Florida. / have tried this in num-
Der of ways, and at a number of
times, and have always failed. /
have never been able to get it cured
so i: would not mold, and this mold
will affect stock; and l attribute the
loss of one mule to feeding nodded
sorghum hay.
1t has been suggested by some that
we plant sorghum broadcast with
cowpeas for hay; but gentlemen, l
have tried this on several occasions,
and pronounce this method, also,
failure. Last year cut three acres
of surghum and tried to make hay
out of it, but failed. 1t nodded, and
was totally unfit for stock. After
cutting it l Immediately plowed out
the stubble, and worked it once after
this blowing, and got second crop
equal to two-thirds of the first crop.

produced on this field per acre would
be at least Is to 20 tons.
have no experience in making
sorghum into silage, but / have seen
some excellent silage made from sor-
ghum, and | am advised that sorghum
silage in Kansas has been very prof
liable for stock growing; and where
we can make two crops on the same
land to their one, we should certainly
do as well as they do.
Now, gentlemen, in laying OUT
YOUR crops for this year, don't over
look sorghum, and if you plant, culti-
vate and feed it correctly; your books
will show a greater proportion of
profit from this crop than any feed
crop you plant this year.
