N. d. POTATO YIELD
100000 BUSHELS

Fargo, N. D., Nov. 19.-The potato
yield in North Dakota this year was
80 bushels an acre, according to an
estimate issued by the United States
bureau of markets, compared with an
average production of 80 bushels. The
state potato yield is fixed at 100000
bushels, compared with $4,000
bushels last year.
The state flax average yield was 7.8
bushels an acre compared with an av-
erage of 7.9 bushels, and the yield this
year was 7,449,000 bushels, compared
with 3,764,000 bushels last year.
The corn average yield was 10
bushels, compared with an average Of
22.7 bushels. The production this year
was 9,196,000 bushels, compared with
I $4,000 bushels last year.
| The report discloses that there s
less fall blowing than usual, largely
because Of the shortage Of help and
the fact that the influenza epidemic
has made heavy inroads on domestic
labor.

For supper, the men got little black
bread and they usually had to buy
something extra out of their days
salary which amounted to % cents.
For the least offense, the men were
put in a dark room for couple of
days. In the town where he was STA
toned, the officers kept 80 snow white
horses and these animals were given
better care than the men. Should
one man die, there were ten to take
his place but horses were not so plen-
tiful. Meet a German officer on the
street, the private would have to give
him the right of way, saluting him,
but never speaking to him. Often
the. officers would come to the bar
racks in the early morning hours, in
an intoxicated condition, and woe I'M
to the soldier who displeased him. 1t
was nothing unusual for a drunken
officer to knock a soldier down with
his sword.
Mr.. Opperman says he remembers
once when the Kaiser and his staff,
came to the town where his division
was stationed, to review the troops.
The Kaiser was fitted out with red
boots and some OF his numerous bad
ges and he was followed by about
twenty members of his staff. AS the
Imperial party passed, the soldiers
had to stand at attention without bat
ting an eye. The Kaiser tried to i'm
press upon the minds of the German
masses that he had God-given power,
but Mr.. Opperman said that he could
not get very far with this proposition.
Mr.. Opperman believes that the Ger
man people are going to come out
from under the great wreck of their
country, democratic and in time
stronger and better than ever. He
says that the German-born people in
the United States have gone thru
quite an ordeal, but practically all
of them have made the very best of
records for their Americanism, doing
what they could to help America win
the war.

NEW OFFICIAL
MEETS EMPLOYEES
Superintendent J. C. johnson,
of Middle Division, Shows
Value of Cooperation

when the employees are in the
right am going to be with them i,
when the company is right. | Will
stand by the company. In order that
heartiest cooperation is necessary.
1t is cooperation that is going to win
the war. Every man has an important
duty to perform and when he does
his task the best he knows how, he
proves himself a real patriot" These
words came from ]. c. Johnson. the
new superintendent of the Middle Di-
vision. Pennsylvania Railroad. last
night.
Superintendent Johnson was the
meeting of the Friendship and CO.
operative Club, held last night at
Eagles Hall, Sixth and Cumberland
streets. His predecessor. N. w.
Smith. now general superintendent,
was also present. The new official
was given hearty welcome. He met
many of his employees for the. first
time, While. not stranger to men
on the Pennsylvania system, there
were many who took this opportunity
to get acquainted.
Mr.. Johnson spoke about war condi-
tions, and told of the requirements of
railroads in taking care of war traf-
tc. He said he had heard so much
about the good work of the Friend
ship Club that he long ago had a de-
sire to be member. He expressed a
desire to see big boost in member
ship, and promised his hearty support
for the good of the men, and in meet
ing the demands of the United States
Government His talk was timely,
and won much favorable comment
from the men.
General Superintendent Smith urged
hearty cooperation on the part of the
employees for his successor He point
ed out the need for locomotives, and
sald TINS shortage was gradually be-
ing overcome. He said one cause
for locomotives to do work about gov
for locomotives to do work about CAV
ernment plants, and in taking care of
business at the points where the vari-
Gus depots are located.
Other members of the club spoke
on various subjects, including the
need for further economy in the use
of coal. Signals were discussed, and
at the close it was decided that each
member do missionary work and bring
railroad man to the next meeting
who was not acquainted with the
good work being done by the Friend
ship and Cooperative Club. 1t was
pointed out that slackers are misrep-
resenting the aims of the get-together
movement, and the men were caution
ed to look out for these men who
showed a lack OF patriotism, by fail
ing to join in cooperation in the
effort to win this war. 1t was also
shown that the cooperative organi-
cations on the Pennsy were on the in
crease; that Altoona had a live body
of men, and that the United States
Government was in hearty accord
