ASKS DAKOTANS
TO SPEND REST
time ON FARM RI.


Bismarck, N. D., June 13.-North
Dakotans who are going to take a
vacation this year are urged to take
it during harvest time, spend it on
farm and assist in harvesting grain
so sorely needed to feed the armies
Of the United States and it's allies,
in, an appeal made. by John N. Hag-
an, state commissioner of agricuI-
ture and labor. f--..
There is every indication at the
present time" reads Mr.. Hagan's ap-
peal, that the 1918 crop in North
Dakota will be equal to the crop Of
1915, which, totalled Isl, 100000 bush
els Of wheat alone. Fifty thousand
harvest hands will be necessary to
take care of this grain. Where will
this labor come FROM?
The steady drain on the labor re-
sources Of the, country for military
service and for the production Of
war material, Mr.. Hagan says, will
greatly reduce the usual army OF
transients to the North Dakota har-
vest fields, and that it will be i'm
possible to draw enough labor from
outside the state, no matter what
wages are offered.
Mr.. Hagan suggests that men en-
gagged in non essential Industries can
be replaced by women for the har-
vest period, and adds that business
and professional men, unacoustomed
to hard labor, should prepare them
selves gradually.
Any loss Of grain through short
age Of labor will reflect on the pat
riotism of the people Of North Da-
kota; Mr.. Hagan holds. -.-t 49,,

Railroads Will
Spend Huge Sum
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, June 13.-In announc-
ing classified items of the $946,293,000
railway capital expenditure budgets
for this year, the railroad administra-
ton discloses that it will pursue a
liberal policy in the construction of
new switch tracks, industrial sidings,
shop buildings and freight stations at
terminals, but will cut expenditures
for new passenger depots, Office build
ings and other enterprises not con-
tributing Immediately to war de-
mands.
Railroads will spend $98, 661, 900 for
additional yard tracks, sidings and
industry tracks; $61,979,00O for shop
buildings, engine houses and appur-
tenances; $7,471,0OO for additional
main tracks; $38,035, 900 for bridges,

for rails and other track materials.
The total to be spent for improve
ments is $445, $4,000 and for equip
ment 1882, 417,000. This is approx
imately three times as much as rail-
roads have spend for these purposes
annually heretofore.

At this time of the year people feel
weak, tired, listless, their blood is thin,
they have lived indoors and perhaps
expended all their mental and bodily
energy and they want to know how to
renew their energy and stamina, over
come headaches and backaches have
clear eyes, a smooth, ruddy skin, and
feel the exhilaration of real good health
tingling thru their body. Good, pure,
rich, red blood Is the best insurance
against ills of all kinds. Almost all
diseases come from impure and impov-
erished blood. 1t is to be noticed in the
pale or pimply face, the tired, haggard
appearance or the listless manner.

MEANING OF NAME DECEMBER
Twelfth Months Title Derived FROM
Latin Word "Deeem," When There
Were Only Ten Periods.

The name Of December is no longer
appropriate, for 1t is derived from "ds-
GEN." the Latin word meaning "ten,"
declares q writer. The name was first
applied by the Romans when the year
was divided into ten months, with the
addition of supplementary days to
complete the period required for y
revolution Of the earth around tba
sun.
When the calendar of Romulus YVES
amended in 713 b. @. by Numa Pom
pilius and the year was divided into
twelve months December became tba
twelfth month, but retained its originsi
name. The Emperor Commodus, wh1
reigned in the second century, attempt'
ed to change the name of December 70
Amazonius, in honor of a fair favorite
of that name, whom he had painted to
resemble an Amazon. This innovation
was not popular, and when CommodiUa
died from poison administered by ar'
other feminine favorite the name O.
Amazonius died with him.
The ancient Saxons called the laA
month Winter-monat, which was after
ward changed to Heilig-Moaat, or holy
month, when they were converted 10
Christianity. The modern Germans
again changed the name to Christ
monat, because the month contains thu
anniversary of the birth of Christ.

Drowned, then add boiling water to
cover, with one carrot, one onion, one
head of celery, a small potato, all cut
In small cubes. Cook until the meat
is tender, then add half can of peas
just before serving.
Baked Fish With Sour Cream.-Cut
raw fish into serving-sized pieces and
place them side by side in a shallow
baking dish. For each pound of fish
allow tablespoonful of butter, a slice
of onion, a bay leaf and third of a
cupful of sour cream. Basic the fish
with the sauce while cooking, adding
hot water if the sauce becomes too
thick. Remove the fish to q platter,
add a dash Of lemon juice or vinegar,
with salt and pepper to taste, and
strain it over the fish.
Canned asparagus, heated and
served on points of toast with melted
butter and parmesan cheese grated
over the top, makes most tasty dish.
Punski, a Russian Dish.-Fry fresh
mushrooms rolled in seasoned flour in
butter. Pour sour cream over some
finely chopped chicken or veal. Cut
circles of pastry from pie crust, place
spoonful of the mixture on a piece
OF the pastry, cover with another piece
and pinch the edges together. Brush
with egg and milk and bake in a hot
oven. Serve with mushroom or toma-
TO sauce.
Eggless Cake.-Take three cupfuls
Of boiling water, one package of rails
lns, one and a half tablespoonfuIs Of
butter and two cupfuls of brown sugar,
put all into dish and boil eight min
utes. Cool and add three cupfuls of
-four, one tablespoonful of baking pow
der and a little salt. Mix, beat well
and bake in slow oven one hour.
This makes two loaves.
In making corn bread, substitute a
tablespoonful of molasses for every
egg required in the recipe; 1t will
