That school is no place to talk or
teach war is the belief of John
Schultz, Glen Ullin farmer, and labor
ing under the unrea sonable belief he
would not permit his children to go to
school. Schultz says the teacher did
MT talk about war the right way in
asmuch as she talked in favor of the
allies and instructed the school chill
dren on the current events Of our
governments program. Schultz was
arrested on complaint of County Sup
erintendent of Schools Jensen and
taken to town by Deputy Sheriff Eek
roth recently. He was arraigned be-
fore Judge Henke and fined $25 and
costs for not sending his children to
school. Mr.. Schultz may have an
other official caller from present indi-
cations as the result of his pro-Ger
man attitude.
Ole Larson, of Devils Lake, Sec
ton man on the Great Northern road,
was accidentally killed. He was work.
ing in the yards and near him an en-
, CINE was blowing off steam, so that
he could not see what was going on
about him, and while standing on
the track No. 10 came in and struck
him, killing him instantly, and his
body was dragged for several hundred
feet, mutilating and disfiguring the
remains in horrible manner. He
lived on the west side and leaves a
wife and several children. The de-
ceased had lived in Devils Lake for
several years and was a hard working
man. 1t was terrible accident and
the bereaved ones have the sympathy
of the Devils Lake community.
Mr.. and Mrs. Michael Rausch of
Glen Ullin were arrested last Thurs
day on charge of hindering the draft
law by using their influence tt pre-
vent man of military age from reg
| istering. The couple were arrested by
Deputy United States Marshall Cam
eron. The complaining witness in the
case is Edward Adolph of Glen W.
lin, who claims they urged him not to
register for the draft. They will be
taken to Hebron later to answer to
the charge. The complaining witness'
| Edward Adolph, was recently taken
up for not registering and it is alleged
| by citizens of Glen Ullin that he be-
lieved that the Rausch family had in
formed on him. 1t is pointed out by
Glen Ullin people that the Rausch
family has always been considered
law-abiding and that Mr.. and Mrs
Rausch have a son who registered on
June last as required by law.
Farmers are warned to avoid the
purchase of oat hulls and rice hulls
when offered at from $25 to $50 ton
in lieu of mill feeds. Complaints are
being received by the division of ag-
ricultural biochemistry, University
Farm, of the serious losses through
the feeding Of such materials. One
farmer reports that his milk produ<
ton fell off so per cent within a few
days after oat hulls were made an i'm
portant part of his dairy herds ra-
ton. Animals fed on oat hulls soon
er or later suffer from digestive dis
turbances and refuse to eat the stuff
The fur becomes rough and in severe
cases "humpy back" is observed. The
protein contained in oat hulls is low
as are also fats and carbohydrates
Besides, the stuff contains so much
woody fibre that it is impossible tc
make mash of it. The ash is high
in SILICA which probably accounts fol
the digestive disturbances. Rice hulls
are even less desirable than oat hulls
