The barberry is necessary to the

is soon here that the barberry will
be sending it's rust spores to attack
the wheat. Most of the barberries
were dug in North Dakota last year
but there may be a few more left
yet and some may not have been
dug deep enough and so have sprout-
ed from the roots. Every body

OUR FEATHERED POLICEMAN

The birds are our feathered po-
liceman that help protect our crops
from bugs and worms. A mother
bird with nest full of young birds
needs 200 to 800 bugs and worms
day to feed them. Plenty of birds
around makes a hard drive on our
enemies the insects. Cats are great
bird catchers and especially stray
cats, but even the puss that enjoys
a good home and food loves to hunt
birds. The birds should be given

FAIR PLAY

Everybody believes in fair play, and, when you
slider the proposition carefully it than fair that
county seat be located at Hope?
First The county seat moved from Hope to
sherbrooke in the early days, and think it the
promise of railroad which to thru the center of
the county that largely influential in the change How
in those days the for locating in the center of
the county good for travel by team and roads
were not good But today with the telephone rural mail
routes automobiles graded roads and banks that look af
ter county business for matter of difference of
mile four five miles from the center of the county
as between towns not worthy serious consideration
Second. Hope has been paying taxes into the county
treasury for S6 years and during that time has contributed
several times much money for county support any
other town. Of this large have gone to the road and
bridge fund which has been expended for the benefit of the
county at large not for the benefit of those paying the
money Is it than fair to locate the county
the place that has paid most in support of the county?
Third One of the competing towns has the county
fair people in this locality have supported by attendance
and with exhibits and properly should be develop
ed into permanent and well equipped institution But
why not distribute county institutions is it than fair?
On these grounds out Of the way saying that
feel that in all fairness Hope has greater claim upon
the county than any other town?

Hope for County Seat
OUR ATTITUDE TOWARDS THE REMOVAL ISSUE


Of course Hope people do not think the county seat
should remain off the railroad permanently but when the
question of removal this year rumored they held
meetings and discussed the matter fully and decided that
owing to activities, donations high building COSTS
scarcity of material and of labor that the project had
best be postponed until times normal and that it
could be done without serious inconvenience the people
of the county as whole. So claim credit for
bringing the removal question to a vote this year.
However, the petitions were filed with the required
number Of names, the election called faced
with Condition, not theory We did not feel that
the voters of the county would expect eliminate
selves from the contest long the election called
for obliged to support ourselves other
town. And we believe that in all fairness and account
of advantages other towns Hope has greater claim
upon the county for the location of the county than
other place. and this in way reflection upon any
of competitors for county fortunate in having
several good progressive towns.
Hope people ask support only upon the merit of
claims ask the voters to vote she he believes
be fair and to consider it business proposition
that is just what it is We would inject nothing into the
campaign that would way tend disturb the plen
did spirit of cooperation that exists in county

WHY NOT? -
HOPES PROPOSITION TO the TAX PAYERS

Some have an idea that vote for choice of
location and the county commissioners at their
convenience this not so for Section 1887 of the North
Dakota Laws requires that the change shall be made with

tion is upon us, UNLESS OTHER PROVISIONS ARE Of
FERED. The government will not allow bonds aoated for
projects they deem not necessary when build in this
county want building that will be credit to our peo
pie.
Therefore after the election called people of Hope
held meeting and decided by unanimous to offer
the of the county free of City Hall for
period Of five years. This building is reproo Of brick

better than present Accommodations Doubtless
ditions should not be normal in five years. and did
have finances up to point where could build with
out entering into large debt could be made
to the building for longer period Hope has this
building, and the election is to be held the county is
welcome to it, and thus avoid the necessity Of going

many people are asking in Topeka
now that the Smileage Book cam
paign is being put on here by the

man of the war department commit
tee on training camp activities, a gov
ernmental agency created to look af-
ter the boys during their off-time and
to correct the mistakes of the Mexican
border campaign. Here is Mr. Eos
dicks statement:
IT remember standing on the streets
of Columbus shortly after Villa had
devastated that village, watching our
5000 soldiers come over the railroad
tracks into town in the evening.
There was absolutely nothing for
them to do there-no movies, no Ii
braries, no place to write letters. no
home to which they could go-noth-
ing but saloons and a well-organiZed

I'm this war we are driving those
vicious agencies out of business and
setting up clean entertainment in their
place. This has a direct bearing upon
1.-The health of our army and is an alb
solute necessity in maintaining the
morale of our men,"
The whole proposition is to make
the army life as nearly normal as pos
sible, to give the boys in the service
the same comforts, the same enter
tainm ent, the same hospitality and
the same activities that he had while
he was at home. No army ever IN
dertook this service until the United
States entered the war. Apparently
no one thought about it before. Army
men were left to shift for themselves
commercialism entering into every
thing connected with their pleasures
An entirely new idea is being followed
in this war and the idea is to keep the
American boy normal as nearly as
may be done in connection with wal
service.
Therefore. buy a Smileage Book and
help keep the American soldier nor
NAL in his amusements.

SPEAK FOR SINGLE TAX
John Y. White Talks Before Current

ability and not property is the bs.
sis of taxation under the present sys-
tenn in use in the United States" was
the startling declaration of John L.
White, SPEAKER from the Henry George
Lecture association, in a talk to the
Current Topic club. at the Central Y.
M. c. A. Monday night.
The statement was made in a talk
on the single tax idea as promulgated
by Henry George and by many famous
economists.
s. THE man who allows his land to lie
idle ought to be compelled to pay a
proportionately higher rate of taxation
than the man who expends money and
effort on his property said White
This would induce the holder of idle
property to put that property to some
good use"

out in the state OF California at pres

Every Minute of Day.

winch has been applied by observers
in describing the rapidity with which
the ambulance service at Camp Fun
ston, home of the seth and 92nd
(negro) national army divisions, oper-
ates. The work of the 314th sanitary
train has become SO systematiZed that
from one to three minutes after a call
has been sent in, an ambulance is
speeding off in answer.
me motor ambulances are kept in
sheds about twenty rods from the in
Urinary. The cars are drawn I'D in the
order in which they are to answer
calls, numbered from 1 to 15. When
a call comes in No. 1 is the first to
go, thus each driver knows his order
of call and can be in readiness.
Calls for ambulances are taken
down by man who is stationed con-
stantly at telephone at infirmary

purpose, he registers the name of the
persons calling, the number of the in
Urinary and diagnosis of the patient
or patients to be moved A record OF
this Information is handed to a wait
ing orderly who goes to a door and
signals an ambulance
For night service, ambulance driv-
ers and orderlies sleep at their bar
racks on cots numbered according to
the order in which they are to be
called as needed. A man is constant
ly on duty at a telephone in the in
Urinary, ready to receive calls
Three ambulance companies, all
motorized, have operated this service
at Camp Funston. Frequently more
than ninety calls a day have been
made by the fifteen machines in the
service. Often trip will take hours
transporting a patient to the hospital
and then to some place where he is
to be isolated. Every precaution is
taken to prevent the men in the ser
vice from taking contagious diseases
One of these preventive measures is
the spraying of the throat three times
a day while on detail. So efficient
have these measures proven. that
hardly man in the ambulance service
has contracted disease.
