WE MUST HAVE MORE SWEET
POTATOES.

1.-THE present indications are that
potato plants are going to be scarce
again this year." says J. S. Knox, hor-
ticulturist with the Extension Divi-
sion of the University of Arkansas.
"This being the CASE people who
bedded potatoes should put forth
every effort to make them produce as
many slips as possible. The number
of slips can be increased largely by
thorough and frequent watering of the
plant bed after the young plants begin
to appear. Arkansas needs a DIG
crop of sweet potatoes this year. Are
Won going to help produce them?"

SINN FEM LOGIC

Edward De Valera has been elected head of the
that 'his ountry'-1reland-h been invaded bv Eng
land, and that SO long as English troops are in ireland
a state of war exists between the two countries. There
fore. says Mr.. De Valera, "England's enemies must be
friends"
Let us see where that leads us. Germany. Eng
lands enemy, is Irelands friend. Ireland, as REPRESENTED
by the Sim Feiners. naturally reciprocates. Germany
is the enemy Of the United States. 1reland-sinn Fein
1reland-is the friend of Germany. Therefore that Ire
land is the enemy of the United States.
If Mr.. De Valera is logical, if his reasoning is
sound, every non-naturalized Irishman in the United
States who is a member of the Sim Fein or a sympa-
thizer with it should be informed as an alien enemv. and
every American citizen who IL either affiliated or in SYM
pathy with the Sim Fem should be jailed ~ a sedtttous
person.
1t 10 no wonder that the men who have struggled
vahantly for years for Irish home rule, and who SEQ
some prospect Of success just ahead stand a<hast at the
mischtevousness Of the Sim Fein propaganda. It IN no
wonder that O'CIonnor has denounced the pernicious
activities Of this society, and that Redmond has be.oueht
his countrymen to have sense. Neither, it may be said,

WHERE SHOULD WE FIGHT?

Where should we go to trial in a

ests are at stake? In one place only,
We should appear in the court where
the great issue is on trial.
The welfare of the whole world is
on trial in France today. Germany
has set out to make herself mistress
Of the world, Just as Napoleon cid III
his day. Germany must be fought
where there is a chance Of defeating
her. just as Napoleon had to be
fought a hundred years ago. When
the nations gathered at Leipsic to
give him his first defeat. that was
the proper place to fight Napoleon.
When they came together again to
give him his final overthrow at Wa

GERMANS MUST REGISTER.

This is registration week for all German citizens
Occasionally the report comes that some German citizen
has said that he did not need to register, or that he would
not do so. 1t is reported that in some cases Germans
have been advised by others that they need not register
The German who entertains that opinion is utterly mis-
taken. and the person who so advises him is giving him
unsound and dangerous advice.
The registration of Germans is not a matter of within
or opinion, or Of ruling by some irresponsible individual.
1t is an order issued by the president Of the United States
under authority Of law. 1t is an order which must be
obeyed and for the violation of which severe penalties
are provided. These penalties will certainly be imposed
in cases Of violation.
The German resident must Of his own accord. and
without further notice than has already been given in
the presidents proclamation. present himself at the place
Of registration and make the necessary declaration, He
is not to be notified personally, by mail, or in any other
way.
The purpose of the registration is something which
is not to be called in question either by those immedi-
ately affected or by their friends. 1t is a law which must
be obeyed without delay and without question. Whether
they approve or disapprove Of it does not affect the ST.
uation at all. They must register. AS a matter OF fact.
registration involves no hardship, no inconvenience and
no annoyance. The German resident who is here, and
who wishes to live quietly and obey the laws of the land.
Will not be molested in any way. But he must register
in order that the authorities may know who he is, where
he is and what he is doing.
Grand Forks herald. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1916-1955, 1918-02-05

Every German or Austrian in the United States,
unless known by years of association to be abso-
tutely loyal, should be treated as a potential spy.
Keep your eyes and cars open. Whenever any
suspicious act or disloyal word comes to your no.
dce communicate at once with the Bureau Of In
vestigation or the Department of Justice.
We are at war with the most merciless and in
human nation in the world. Hundreds of thousands
OF its people in this country want to see America
Inundated and beaten to her knees, and they are
doing, and will do everything in their power to bring
this about.
Take nothing for granted. Energy and alert
ness in this direction may save the life of your son,
Or husband, or your brother.

NEXT WINTERS FUEL

It isn't a bit too early to begin preparations for get
ting next winters fuel. The northwest has been very
fortunate this year. We were able to obtain a fair
quantity of anthracite and bituminous coal, and the out
put of the Ignite mines in our own state has been so in
creased that Ignite in fairly large quantities has been
available with which to piece out. We are going to get
through the season very nicely.
!. But we may as well accept the probability right
now that little anthracite or bituminous coal will be
shipped into this territory during 1918. To get that coal
here requires a very long haul, and transportation for
other purposes will be in such great demand that the
moving of freight unnecessarily cannot be permitted.
The people Of North Dakota, and many of'those in Min-
nesota, can be supplied with fuel more conveniently from
the North Dakota Ignite mines than from the east, and
1t is to be expected that orders will be issued requiring
that this be done.
Ignite production has been greatly increased this
year. 1t must be still further increased. And the sensi-
BILE thing will be for the people of the northwest to ar
range for a supply Of Ignite early in the season, long be-
fore the movement of the farm crops crowds the rail-
roads to their capacity.
Ignite is a more bulky fuel in proportion to heat
ing value than are other Goals. therefore greater storage
space must be provided. The experience of this winter
Will have shown many people what is needed in the way
Of changes in the CRATES Of furnaces and stoves for burn
ing this coal, and these changes, where they are shown
to be necessary, should be made in ample time. In the
work of distributing the fuel supply of the state for
another winter-and unless it is properly distributed the
quantity on hand will be of no value-there will be need
ed the cooperation of the mine owners and workers, the
government through its control of the railroads, the To-
cal dealers, and the great consuming public. With proper
cooperation Of all these there is no reason why the en-
tire state should not be we'll supplied with fuel for
another season.
