BRMAIN'S NEW WAR CHIEF

London, May 31.-Few recent ap- ,pointments have given more general satisfaction than that, of Maj. Gen. F. Il. Sykes, the new chief of the British Air Staff. He was one of the handful of men who, when aviation was in it's boyhood, looked ahead in- to it's tremendous possibilities. Ex- perts scoffed when, before the war. he predicted scouting machines trav- cling 12O miles an hour and battle planes carrying pilot, assistant, gum ners, and observer. Unlike the ma jority of prophets. Sykes has seen his predictions fulfilled, and gained merited recognition.

LIMIT KHAKI TO ARMY

Manufacturers of cloth are to be requested that cloth of khaki be manufactured only for the use of the United States army. The color is to be consecrated to the soldiers, and only those who are serving with the nations fighting forces are to be en- titled to wear it. This is an excellent plan. Khaki ought to be the color of honor, and only those who are will ing to wear it on the field of battle should be allowed to wear it at all.

1t is important in this campaign
to emphasize the New Farm

Co-Operation Urged.
In his interest in the organization
of the Southern Beltrami County
Farm bureau, H. C. Baer, In address

Never before have we as farmers
had such an opportunity to benefit
mankind as in the present need for
food. Make your land produce its
limit next summer.
Our county agent, A. w. Aamodt,
working through the farm bureau,
has accomplished big results the past
year. In order to keep UP and in
crease this good work, we must CO.
operate with him in every possible
way. We need more members in our
farm bureau and 1t Is expected that
every old member will bring in at

STATE ADMINISTRATORS
AMONG THE SPEAKERS
Plans Are Coming for Banner
Year in 1919; Secretary
Urges Operation

A campaign is being inaugurated
for increased membership in the
South Beltrami county farm bureau,
which will hold it's first annual meet
ing In Bemidji on December Z, and to
that end A. w. Aamodt, agricultural
director OF the southern district of
Beltranli county, is sending out IL
terature to the 100 members of the
bureau, the intent being to express
the need of a greater membership, In
which the main emphasis is laid: on
the letter which A. ID. Wilson, state
food administrator, has addressed to
all people of Minnesota" Mr..
Wilson urges that Minnesota must
have an agricultural program, which
can only be backed UP by such as
the farm bureau.
There is also an appeal from n. G.
Baer, secretary and treasurer,to the
members of the organization, as to
the results obtained last year and
the need for members.
Administrators Plea.
In his letter to the people Of the
state, Mr.. Wilson says: n s.sz- z
ITO be prepared to cope with such
an engaging problem, every loyal
and public spirited citizen Of Mime
sofa is hereby asked to cooperate
with his county farm bureau organ
ization in determining and support
ing an Agricultural Program" for
his county, that will best meet
local and national needs.
"The membership In farm bureau
organizations in Minnesota, at
present representing 10000 families,
should be increased Immediately to
not less than 100 geo for the coming
two-year period. Such a body Of
united persons, publicly interested in
agriculture will insure constructive
action on problems as they arise.
Accordingly, each county farm

bureau organization is hereby urged
to Immediately organize and conduct
a campaign with view to having a
representative of the farm bureau
visit every person who should be
interested in agriculture and country
living. The representative should
explain the achievements of the
farm bureau during 1918 and
methods OF work, and give every
person visited, an opportunity to be-
come member. e *
Membership Week.
The period Of December to z,
1918, is hereby designated and de-
clared to be Farm Bureau Member
ship Week in Minnesota" in which it
lis urged that general enrolment OF
members be conducted.
Great as have been the demands OF
war upon our agriculture, 1t lis GER
tain that the coming Of peace will
greatly increase rather than lessen
our food obligations. This is especi-
ally true Of livestock and livestock
products. Practically every country
which has been engaged In the war,
as we'll as neighboring neutral
states, will be clamoring to America
for food. This will be particularly
true Of the central powers. and we
should be willing to exchange food
for the right kind Of peace. It Is
estimated that in the countries that
are short Of food, there are approxi-
mately SOC, 100000 people or three
times our own population.
Program for 1919.
The federal government through
the United States department of agrf-
culture, early in the coming year,
will announce a program for meet
ing the national agricultural needs
for 1919. In this, recommendation
will be made as to what must be
produced to provide for the nation
itself and fulfill it's food obligations
to other countries. -
The objects of the campaign are
such as to justify an appeal for the
aid Of the general as we'll as the
farming public: s5s
l. Farmers, their families and
organizations are asked to en-
list in this organized movement
to carry out the government,
state and county agricultural
program.
Q. The women Of the state are
asked to give effective service by
systematic and unified effort in
food production such as garden
ing, poultry raising, dairying
and orcharding, and in safe
guarding through economical
use the nations resources, espe-
cially food, textiles, fuel and the
health Of all citizens, as part
of the agricultural program.
3. The attention Of city peo-
pie is directed to the fact that
the national, state and county
agricultural extension service for
food production and cOnserya-,
ton is the machinery for carry Il
Ing out the agricultural pro-
gram. The city people should
make inquiry as to what has
been done through this service
in 1918, and their active sup
port should be given the plans
for 1919.
