Well how did you feel last Sunday
morning not going to Sunday School,
we're you lonesome, did you not feel
like singing some songs to make you
think you were in church However,
we must not stop coming, just as soon
as the Board of Health allows us to
continue services, be sure you are
there. The contest will start the first
Sunday we come back, and the en-
velopes given out for Work Day will
be collected. Since we are having a
long wait 1t is all the more reason
why our envelopes for the orphanage
should be filled. Rally Day likewise
will be held, so be there IL nothing

SEIZURE Of HOUSEWIVES
FOOD STOCKS IMPOSSIBLE

The government has never consid-
cred any plan Of selling foodstuffs
owned by hOuseholders. Nor 10 there
any policy Of this kind suggested for
the future.
In spite Of this fact, the United
States food administration has been
obliged repeatedly to issue Official de-
malls of rumors that the government
intends communicating preserves and
canned goods put up. In American
homes.
These rumors were originated partly
by pro-German p~ropagandists and part
" BY conscienceless grafters, who
sought to profit through buying from
misinformed housewives.
The year 1918 will see home canning
and preserving practiced on greater
scale than ever before In the nations
history, officials In Washington believe.
And they are assuring all patriotic
housewives that, foods so saved an
theirs, and theirs alone.

war BREAD COSTLY TO
!. BRITISH GOVERNMENT

Every year the British government
pays $2OO,OOO,O 900 toward the cost of
that nations war bread. That II the
principal reason why English bread
prices are lower today to the consumer
than in America. Incidentally the
British bread 10 much poorer than the
American.
Great Britain has taken over all
homo grown grain, bought at IN arbi-
trary price, and all imported wheat
bought IN markets Of the world at pre-
vailing prices. This IL turned over to
the mills by the government at a price
that allows the adulterated war bread
loaf of four pounds to sell at 10 cents.
The two pound loaf costs 8 cents, and
the one pound loaf sells for 3 cents
In milling, however, IA per cent.
more -four is extracted from the wheat
than in America. And there is q COM
pulsory %adulteration of 20 per cent.
and an allowable adulteration of 80
per cent.
Compared with American bread, the
British product IL only about IS per
cent. pure at its best.
In France, under conditions some
what similar, but with 4 larger extrac-
ton, the four pound loaf sells for 10
cents.

WHY We MUST SAVE FOOD.

The 1917 wheat crop in France was
less than half normal, using the crop
of 1913 as q basis of comparison
There was a shortage of 176,OOO,OO0
bushels, or 53.3 per cent. The potato
crop was only within one-third of nor
NAL. The sugar beet crop showed a
deficit Of go per cent. Her meat
herds In the early fall showed a short
age Of 100000 animals.
Those are q few Of the reasons
America must feed her associates In

feed themselves, and unless we come
to the rescue are face to face with
starvation. And starvation means de
feat in the war.

FASTENED RUSSIAN COLLAPSE

1--WE must not overlook the fact that
Russia collapsed, not because Of the
Germans on her borders, but because
she failed to organize and feed her

I'VE must be warned that If we are to
emerge victorious from this war We can
not risk the collapse of another of our
associates in this wal from this cause.
Anybody that 10 looking for the col

BIC HERDS CONE
World War Wastes Europs's
:. Meat Supply.
American Stock Raisers Cooperate
With Food Administration In Con-
servatlon Measures.

It II probable that Europe for many
years after the wal will look to q
great extent t America for its meat
supply.
Europe's herds are dwindling under
wars demands faster than they al be
replenished.
When the German armies retired
from occupied portions Of France and
Belgium approximately 100000 head
Of cattle were appropriated. This ad-
dition virtually safeguarded Germany
from cattle shortage other nations now
suffer.
In England some 100000 acres Of
grass lands have by compulsory meas
ures been forced into grain production,
thus reducing pasturage and hay lands.
A declining scale OF maximum meat
prices for live cattle was ordained In
England, as follows: For September,
$17.76 per hundred pounds; October,
$17.26; November and December,
$16.O6; and for January, $14.4O.. The
evident intent of this measure was to
drive the beef animals into market a.
soon al possible.
According TO official French figures,
the cattle Of France have decreased to
q total Of 12,341,9OO as compared with
14,807,0OO in 1918. Today, due to lack
Of forage principally, France is pro-
ducing only n gallon Of milk where
before the war two and one-half gal
Ions were produced.
Meantime the United States food ad-
ministration has taken steps to con-
serve our 1ocks and herds and to in
cas- their numbers. The stock breed
ers Of this country show q disposition
to cooperate with the government in
this.
For many years 1t has been q prac-
tice among many of the dairy people
Of this country to kill male calves at
birth and In many instances the fe-
males II not needed to replenish their
herds rather than 60 to the expense OF
maturing them into veal. The high
prices Of meat caused the virtual dis
continuance Of this killing. Another
encouraging fact 10 rs per cent. Of
calves killed for veal this year were
males. A1k
Somebody has very aptly said that
the wars Of the world have been won

Wheat-corn bread 10 more nutritious
than bread baked with wheat flour

America to provide wheat flour
for the allies. Here's q tested recipe
for this bread: Take one and q half
cups OF milk, water or a mixture Of
the two: one-half cake compressed
yeast, n and q half teaspoons salt,
n tablespoon sugar, n tablespoon
of fat If desired, one cup cornmeal
and two cups wheat flour.

twenty minutes. The water ID sufi-
cient only to soften the meal q little.

OF the water. Knead thoroughly,
make into loaf, place In pan Of stand

a greater percentage Of cornmeal than

HENRY GEORGES
SINGLE TAX is
CUuNINGLY Held.

Candidate Doyle Discusses
H. B. A Proposal to
Levy Tax on Land

Stanley. N. D.. Sept 26.-How the
single tax doctrine of Henry George,
by which all taxes are assessed
against the land was cunningly sugar
coated by the Socialists who are
seeking it's enactment in North Da-
kota. was explained last night by S.
j. Doyle, Democratic candidate for
governor speaking in this city before
a deeply interested audience.
why should the man with $780,
600 invested in farm mortgages pay
no tax, while the farmer who is try
ing to pay off the mortgage also pays
all the taxi" asked Mr.. Doyle at the
conclusion of his analysis Of the sin
gle tax clause as set forth in the
notorious House Bill No. Al, the
leagues constitution" and now
again proposed for adoption in the
form of a constitutional amendment
that has been initiated by the Nom
partisan league leaders through pc
titions.

ment of the proposed single tax

I'm this message" said Mr.. Doyle,
we have the simon pure tax doc

that no class of property should be
taxed except the land. Now the gem

of this legislation have it
for the people by tell

to understand the purpose of this
we will have to go back a
little and study its meaning. Henry
George was the father of the single

DEFENSE BODY
TO SCAN WORK
Necessity of Construction
Will Be Passed on by
State Council

Bismarck, N. D., Sept. 26.-The
War Industries Board has asked the
North Dakota Council Of Defense
to act as its representative in pass
ing upon proposed construction in
order that all building which is not
absolutely necessary may be stopped
for the duration of the war. This
is a part of a. new plan of the War
Industries Board by which permits
will be required for construction
projects, and the War Industries
Board has asked the State Councils
of Defense to pass upon and issue
permits for necessary construction.
The conservation of labor, ma
terials and capital for purposes is
given as the reason for this action
by the War Industries Board.
The following procedure will be
followed in obtaining a permit to
build under the new order:
1. The person interested in a
construction project will apply, with
a full statement of the facts under
oath, to the nearest local repre-
sentative of the North Dakota Coun-
Gil of Defense.
2. The local representative of the
Council of Defense will then investt-
gate the necessity of the proposed
construction and transmit it's rec
ommendation with a summary of
the facts to the North Dakota Coun-
Gil of Defense.
8. The North Dakota Council of
Defense, or it's appropriate commit
tee, will review the case in detail
and will report its decision in the
matter to the War Industries Board.
The ability of the War Industries
Board to enforce this whole plan
rests upon the fact that 1t controle
priorities and has also secured from
the manufacturers of building mater
ials a pledge not to supply mater
ials for projects which are not au-
thorized under the regulations Of
the War Industries Board.
The North Dakota Council of De-
Tense has for some time past been
passing on priorities for the War
