NO REDCROSS FRICTION
WITH WAR WORK DRIVE
Chapters Will Cooperate to Ut
most in November Cam
paign for Funds.

The utmost cooperation on the
! part of all chapters and members is
! urged by the war council of the Red
Cross in making a success of the
united war work campaign, scheduled
for November Ills, on benaf OF the
work of the seven recreatiOnal or
Plantations Endorsed by the govern
! ment.
In line with the above appeal the
council calls attention to the recent
statement of Assistant Secretary
keppel of the War Department TO the
following effect:
ut was natural that the organiZa-
lions which were responsible for pro-
vding recreation facilities to the
troops should merge their campaigns.
inasmuch as they are engaged in
common program of service.

fall for. these organizations. will be

No Conflicting Campaign.
In order that there may be no con-
fusion. the war council will not au-
thorize any campaign for Red Cross
funds for the national organization,
either directly or Indirectly, during
. the time in which the seventyfold war
work campaign is carried on.
IN response 10 the INcu SToSS appear
last spring. approximately $17S,000. 900
was subscribed. The demands upon
i the Red Cross are much larger than
was ever anticipated, and are increas-
/ ing. The organization is nevertheless
| in possession of sufficient funds for
the immediate present. 1t is as yet
! impossible to estimate the opportuni-
ties and obligations of the next year,
but a campaign for funds will of ne
cessity be made in the spring.
! 1t also is felt by the war council that
the Red Cross appeals for funds
should be regarded as essentially for
relief and should, as set forth in the
above statement by the War Depart
| ment, be made on distinctive occasion.

One Of the best crops to grow this
year is flax. With the present short
supply of farm labor and the high
prices which must be paid for it, farm
ers must plan to grow crops which re-
quire little labor They must also plan
to grow a variety Of crops so that the
work Of men and machinery may be
utilized as fully as possible. Where
wheat. oats. and barley are important
crops, a part Of the time between seed
ing and harvesting may be we'll used
in preparing land, particularly new
land. and sowing it to flax. As the
flax is not ready to harvest until other
small grains are cut. it does not inter-
fere in any way with growing the
largest possible acreage of these crops.
Flax requires little labor and at any
thing like present prices, ought to be a
highly profitable crop. The world
supply Of flaxseed and of other Oil-pro-
ducing seeds is very short this year.
hence good prices for flax should pre-
vail next fall and winter.

Last Tuesday Mrs. w. N. Wing, living

reply to urgent requests to stay for
supper, her reply was that she must
go home to do her chores, and she went.

discovered that it was burned to the

the ashes were not smoking, it is sup
posed that the house must have caught
fire in the early part of the night, and
that when discovered by the mother

TELEPHONE USERS
state Railroad Commission Authorizes.
Unification of Telephone Service
in Minnesota,

About July l, every telephone SUBJ
scriber will have direct service from,
his own instrument with every toll
line connection in the state as a re-
suit of an order, by the Minnesota
Railroad and Warehouse Commission.
authorizing a unification of the tele-
phone systems through reimbursement
OF the properties of the Northwestern
and Tri-State Telephone Companies
ana their subsidiaries. By this order,
the state is divided into two zones or
districts by a line following the
northern boundaries of Washington,
Ramsey, Dakota, Scott, Carver, Nc
Leod, Renville and Yellow Medicine
counties; the northern district to be
operated by the Northwestern Com
pany and the southern district to be.
operated by the Tri-State Company, ex-
cepting only at Marshall, Minneota,

exchanges are retained by the North
western Company, as well as four long
distance lines for it's interstate service
through Hudson, Winona Mankato

Commissioner Fred w. Putnam. who
wrote the order, holds that the dupli-
cation of telephone service throughout
the state imposes upon the public an
unnecessary expense and creates need
less annoyance and confusion While
there was, at one time, a general de-
mand for competition in the telephone
field in order to obtain improvement in
service and reduction in rates. the con-
ditions which gave rise to such de-
mands no longer exist. With the State
Railroad and Warehouse Commission
having full authority to regulate rates
and service, the public is protected.
completely, and one of the conditions
of the Commissions order authorizing
a division Of territory and a consolida-
ton of telephone properties, is that no
rate nor any condition of service now
enjoyed anywhere in the state shall be
disturbed without the consent of the
Commission.

Both Pennsyl- vania and New Jersey have approved plans for a mammoth suspension structure with the largest span in the world to cost approximately $20.0O0.- 900. and in few years what Is regarded as an invaluable connecting link between eastern Pennsylvania end southern New Jersey may be an accomplished fact.
 The great bridge will clear the channel at 152 feet high water and the suspension span will be 1,725 feet from pier to pier. or 145 feet longer than the Williamsburg bridge over over the East river. Four railway tracks, two 40-foot roadways and two 12.foot promenades will fur nish accommodations for all classes of travel.

WAR HAS UPSET
 OPENING PLANS

HONOLULU, Feb. 1.-The great Pearl Harbor Naval Station drydock which has been in process of con struction for several years. will be completed by next June and ready for use by the largest battleships next fall, according to an official state ment by local navy authorities.
 No ceremony, it is announced. will mark the first opening and closing of the huge caisson gate for the recep tion of the first war ship. Originally it was intended to have the event ob- served by impressive ceremonies. but the war has upset all that.
 The work of the Pearl Harbor Ma val Station began in 1900, when pre- liminary surveys were made for deepening and widening the channel from the open sea and for dredging out the bar at the entrance. This work required several years before the actual construction was begun.
 The drydock has had several Be rious setbacks. the gravest of which occurred several years ago and de 'layed the work for more than a year At that time the entire bottom oi the drydock blew up. running all tha, had been done. The cause of the dis aster, engineers discovered, was tha, the dredged-out bottom was softer than the adjoining terrain and the pressure of the latter caused the bottom to blow up as if a huge charge of dynamite had been ex ploded under it.
 After long delay a new scheme of construction was adapted. In stead of pouring concrete on the bot tom. huge concrete blocks were moulded. These were floated out and let down to the bottom. securely an choring it.
 The Pearl Harbor drydock is biz enough to accommodate the larees, battleship afloat or projected.
