Copyright, 1918, by William Fox
III short, Pershing had accom-
plished the impossible" In this
short time he had taken the raw men
that were sent to him, and made a
trained army of them. He had taken
the raw supplies that were sent to
him and manufactured supplies for
his army. 1t was a task worthy OF q
Hercules-but it had been done.
General Pershing felt that Score
tary of War Baker, in the interest of
the nation should visit and inspect
this great army. There should be one
in authority in America who could
know. first hand what had been &C
complished and what would be the
future needs of the army.
On March 10, 1918, Secretary Baker
arrived in France for such an inspec-
ton and, after extended visits to the
front and to the various training
camps, could find no words to eX-
press adequately his amazement at
the work that Pershing had accom-
plished in so brief time.
The immense detail of the War De-
partment. however was calling for it's
head, and Secretary Baker could re-
m ain only q few weeks although ne
declared that. if it were possible for
the good of the country, he would
prefer to remain at the front, even
as a private soldier under Pershlng,
rather than occupy q desk at WASH
ington.
With Secretary Baker, General
Pershing had perfected the details or
the first field army of the American
largest unit used in modern warfare
and was the first to be put in active
service by the United States.
In conference with the French high
command, it was arranged that tnls
first American field army should take
over a front of approximately loo
miles At last the world was to know
that the Stars and Stripes was in the
battle line to stay.
On March 21 the Germans began
their unexpected drive. The great
est artillery attack the world has ever
known announced the opening OF the
battle. The startling news that the
Germans had invented a supergun
that could fire a shell seventy miles
and that one of these giant weapons
actually was bombard1ng Paris NASH
ed over the world.
Masses Of men the like of which
never before had been used were
thrown upon that point where the
British and the French troops joined.
Unable to prepare against such a ter
rife assault, the British were hurled
back by sheer weight of numbers.
Ten--twenty-even thirty miles the
Germans advanced. Hundreds of
thousands Of German troops were
sacrificed by the order of the kaiser
to gain these miles.
Masses were used in such close
formation that the British guns were
able to NOV them down by the hum
dreds and thousands.
The allied commanders foresaW
that the German drive would wear 1t
self out by it's very f1erceness ana
wisely adopted policy that would
involve the sacrifice of as few lives as

HEALTH BOARDS
GIVE WARNING OF
INFLUENZA DANGER
Ask People to Be Careful
and Take Proper Treat
ment Promptly. M any
Pneumonia Cases Follow
Influenza. What to Do.

To be Drepared for the serious out
breaks of Influenza and Pneumonia
that are now sweeping over the entire
country and that have seized on this
community Public Health Boards
everywhere are issuing cautions ana
instructions to the public not to neg
lect treatment at the first symptoms
of q cold and to cooperate with health
boards and physicians in stamping
out the spread of the disease.
No disease develops SO quickly or
spreads so rapidly. The first symp-
tom usually is a sharp rise in tempera-
ture to 1913 or 1O4 degrees, headache,
pain in the back, throat feeling dry
or sore. Unless promptly checked by
proper treatment, the best plan is to
go to bed and stay there for at least
a week. keeping warm to avoid
pneumonia and let the minor allment
run its course and also prevent the
spread of the disease to others.
Most of us, in these busy days, can
not afford, if it can be avoided, to
lose a week or more of work so 1T is
all the more necessary that at the
yerv first sign of grip or influenza a
counter-acting treatment should be
taken.
Probably no better or more effec-
tive treatment could be followed at
such a. time than to get from the near
est drug store a complete Hyomel out
fit consisting of a bottle of the pure
oil of Hyomei and q little vestpocket,
hard rubber inhaling device into
which a few drops of the oil are
poured.
Put the Inhaler in your mouth and
breathe it's air deep into the passa ges
of YOUR nose, throat and lungs. Every
particle of air that enters your breath
ing organs will thus be charged With
an antiseptic healing balsam.
You can't do this too often. The
Hyomei Inhaler is small and can be
conveniently carried in a handbag or
in YOUR vestpocket. Every half hour
or so throughout the day take it out
and draw a few breaths of its pure
healing air into your nose and throat
The outfit is not at all expensive for
The rubber inhaler will less last life
time while the Oil of Hyomel can be
obtained at little cost from any relf-
able druggist Lots of people al
ready have Il Hyomei Inhaler. Take
it out, charge it and use it without
delay. If you haven't one get 1t to-
day.
A few cents spent now may easily
nrevent serious illness and save you
many dollars and help stamp out the
spread of the disease.

LIFE OF GENERAL PERSHING

| possible and at the same time do the
greatest amount of damage to the
| Germans.
In the vicinity Of Chauny, several
companies Of American engineers
were engaged in railroad construc-
ton. They suddenly found that the
British with whom they were work
ing had been cut off In their sector
from the remainder OF the army SO,
| dropping their tools, they seized RI
f1es and fought like demons until ell
were either killed or captured.
The whole world waited anxiously
for the allies to stop this drive. 1t
seemed TO those waiting that the
German hordes were actually about
to break through and achieve their
objective. Every reserve i'll the al
lied armies was being rushed to the
front.
Day and night tenseness overhung
the general headquarters of the High
Command. Disaster seemed to have
placed her hand on the forces Of the
Allies. General Pershing was one Of
the little group that planned and la
bored during those ominous days and
age-long nights. Strategic plans to
stem the hordes of the Hun were
in all of these plans that the Allied
commanders could not meet. There
were no large bodies of reserves to
enable the forces of Freedom to make
any effective counter-attack.
The continuous rumble of the
mighty drumfire of the great guns on
the front was plainly heard in Paris.
1t seemed as if Satan himself was
playing a bass obligato to the tramp
of millions of Hun feet on their
march to the city of despair.
AS regularly as the pendulum of
fate, a sharp crash would shake the
city as the devilish gun of the Ger
mans hurled death and destruction
upon the defenseless city Churches,
hospitals, and homes were 'indiscrim-
inately battered and ruined.
1t was enough to shake the hearts
of the strongest men; but the brave
citizens of that great city had an I'M
shaken confidence in the commanders
of their armies-they felt that the
time had not yet come when they
should again see their fair city in
Teutonic hands.
General Pershing sat in the coun-
ellis of the staff. He 1abored on the
great strategic plans. He felt the

the happy union Of the suffrage ana
citizenship clauses IL thus explained
BY Mrs. John l. Pyle:
"A special session Of the South Da-
kota Legislature. ~cumvening In 1918 to
enact war emergency measures, faced
the necessity Of correcting the states
lax election law which permits men to
vote before they swear allegiance to
the United StateA The Legislature, In
regular session In 1917, had passed q
woman suffrage amendment These
bills both pertafned to the Qualifca-
tons OF voters and therefore had to
be amendments to Article Z Of the Con-
stitutiOn which defined them.
1T has been suggested that the SUI
frage amendment and the amendment
taking the franchise from aliens not
n~aturalized should have been submit.
ted as separate propositions and not
included In n amendment. This
seems reasonable, but was in fact I'm
possible. With one amendment to Arti-
Gle Z already submitted, any proposed
amendment to that amendment had to
be germane to it II two separate
amendments had been submitted the
first would have defined electors as
men and women, with the necessary
qualifications as to age and residence,
who are either citizens or had declar-
ed their intention to become such the
other would have defined as electors
men who were citizens either native
born or n~aturalized.
III one Of the amendments had AR
ried and the other had failed. the in
tention Of the voters would, of course
have been plain and the effect of the
amendment easy to determine, but IL
both had carried there would then
have been two definitions as to who
should be an ~elector, each as conclu-
sive as the other upon the question in
volved, and the two SO inconsistent
that each would destroy the effect OF
the other. 1t viii thus readily be seen
that the amendment to eliminate the
word male which had been passed by
the regular session OF the Legislature
could not be amended by one which
would pertain only to males. There
fore, In order to submit the anti-alien
measure, 1t was necessary to incor-
porate 1t in the already submitted wo-
man suffrage amendment. The amend
ment to the amendment known as
Amendment E vas therefore passed."

taken by the South Dakota men and

throughout the East Il
Suffragists all oveS the country are
calling attention to the fact that this
will be the first time In the history OF

have been enfranchised upon the
broad basis Of loyal citizenship. They
say that Amendment e Is in keeping
with the dignity of q great nation at
war and reflects great credit upon the
South Dakota Legislature.
South DakOtans sum up the qualities
Of Amendment e In this wise:
1T Is q patriotic amendment. II

and denies 1t to the alien who does not
intend to become an American" Two
reasons for Its passage stand out:
"First, war involves both men and
women, and women as q necessary In

invested with the rights OF citizenship.
Second. enemy aliens are not will

The Hardest Rye
The hardest rye for North Dakota
is the N. d. $50 developed at ths,
North Dakota Agricultural College.
Rye is one of the valuable bread crops
and it is, also, crop that does not
need work at the same time as the
other grain crops. Rye is also a good
weed killer.
Flowing to Get Grasshoppers
The grashoppers lay their eggs in
land covered with crop. weeds, or
grass or alfalfa. preferably stubble
land, but do not lay in the prairie sod.
The laying is done from July to Sep
tember. Good plowing will destroy
the eggs and the hoppers do not like
to lay their eggs on newly plowed
groud. The alafalfa field can be har-
rowed both ways which will kill a
good many of the hoppers eggs by
bringing the egg masses to the~sur-
face.
Seeding Rye
The best yields are usually secured
from early seeding. The last weeks
in September is i good time for SOW
ing rye. Good crops have been pro-
duced from later seeding but usually
the yield will be lighter If it is seeded
before September Goth. Where the
soil does not drift summer fallow,
corn groud or potato groud will usual
ly produce the best yields of rye, but

for producing wheat. Rye will do

have occurred even in the Red River
Valley, but only in the last few years.
The first indication of it is depres-
sion, loss of appetite, a failure to rum
mate and high fever. The breath
ing becomes rapid, the animal moves
with difficulty and lays down often.
In few hours swellings appear un-
der the skin, and in twelve hours the
animal may become paralytic. The
muscles Of the affected quarters be-
come dark brown or black.
Blackleg is caused by germ found
in the soil in some sections. These
germs get through the skin BY way Of
scratches. pricks Of thorns. stubbls
boards and penetrating foreign bodies
which may puncture the skin. Cattle
between six months and two years are
the most susceptible. The disease
does not usually spread from animal
to animal, but the germs from the sick
or dead animal get into the soil and
from the soil to another animal. For
this reason the dead animal should be
burned or buried (at least six feet
deep) and quick lime sprinkled over
it. In case Of burning 1t must be done
thoroughly, then disinfect thoroughly.
The cattle can be vaccinated
against blackleg. The Bureau of
Animal Industry of the U. s. Depart
ment of Agriculture furnishes this
vaccine free. Where blackleg is
known to have occurred all cattle
should he vaccinated.
