els than in former years. Corn has become the nations main- stay in the crisis of war.
 Just as this cereal saved the first American colonists from famine on many occasions, just as it served as . staple food during the War of the Rev olution and during the Civil War, King Corn has again come to the front in the nations battle with autocracy.
 Corn meal is finding greatly increas- ed use in the making of ordinary white bread. Hundreds of housewives and many of the larger bakers are mixing 20 per cent. corn meal with wheat flour to make leavened bread. This kind of mixture is worked and baked in the same recipes and with the same methods that apply to straight wheat bread.
 Corn bread-using corn meal entire ly-is gaining a greater popularity than ever before. Housewives are coming to realize that every pound of wheat saved in America means a pound of wheat released for shipment to the nations with which America is associ- ated in the war.
 mere are score or corn products that today possess unusual importance for Americans. Corn syrup for sweet ening corn cakes and buckwheat cakes and for use in the kitchen instead of granulated sugar is one of the leading products made from corn
 Corn oil, excellent for frying and for every other purpose filled by salad oils, is appearing on the market in large quantities. It comes from the germ of the corn.

M|CH|GAN'S CHOICE
Legislature of Michigan Selected
State Constitutional Amend
ment as Method Of Enfran-
chising Michigan Women.
TO BE VOTED ON NOVEMBER 5.
On That Day the Voters VIII Have an
Opportunity to Open Wide the
Estate Door" for Michigan
Women.

There are two ways by which the
women of Michigan may be enfran-
chised-one is by the so-called "fed-
eral route" the other by the state
route" The first means that the two
houses of Congress by two-thirds
! majority In each house must pass a
resolution to submit 20 the Legisla-
lures of the IS states a federal suf-
frage amendment 20 the Constitution
of the United States When this has
been passed the amendment must go
to the 4S state legislatures 10 be voted
on. II SO (three-fourths) of the legis-
latures vote yes 1t becomes law, ma
| tion-wide suffrage for women becomes
fact, and the present ridiculous dis
ordinations by reason of which wo-
man can lose her vote by stepping
across a state boundary fall into the
discard
That is one way by which Michigan
women may be enfranchised. 1t SEEM
| ed to Michigan women, as to other wo-
| men, that 1t was the right way, the
short way, the economical way. But n
tors ga against 62) have blocked that
| way. Over and over the opposition to
| the federal suffrage amendment point
| ed out in that memorable suffrage de-
| bate in the Senate which closed OctO-
| Der ] that 1t was not woman suffrage
per sc that was being opposed 1t was
the manner of getting tit was the
| federal route.
"Women can get the suffrage by the
state route" said the opposition.
| LET them do 1t. Let each state take
care of It's own women. The state
door is open. Let the women enter
| that way, not this"
No one other point was used so Of
| ten and so insistently as an argument
against the federal suffrage amend
ment. On no other did the opponents
of the amendment fall back so compla-
Gently Speaking Of no other, did
| their faces so unanswerably assume
| the expression Of the cat that ate the
| canary.
1.-The states can and will give wo-
| men the suffrage. Let the women Of
each state go to that state. The door
| Is Open"-thus the men who shut the
| federal door in the faces Of American
women.
Now come the women of Michigan
| to their own state seeking that open
door to which they have been so cava-
lierly waved.
Michigan women have this advan-
| tage-their case goes to court, the
great court Of public opinion, on No
vember 8. At least it will be an adj
| vantage II Michigan men make the
most Of the opportunity to give Michi-
gan women q square deal.
Michigan men can open wide the
door of Michigan.
Tho can vote yes on woman suf-
frage on November 5.
They can make America 100 per
| cent. democratic so far as Michigan Is
concerned

this Is MY WAR
YOUR WAR, OUR WAR"
We Must All Dig Up Our Dollars to
Invest In This Liberty Loan
to Win X.
BY MEREDITH NICHOLSON.

This Is my war. The outcome,
whether defeat or victory, vitality con-
Germs me. No one urged that Ameri-
ca declare war upon the Teutonic en-
pires more stridently than l. | re-
joiced in my soul when my country
joined with the other great civilized
powers In driving back the barbarian.
In the strictest sense, In all the con-
nOtations Of the phrase, this Is my
war, as completely as though | stood
on my own doorstep, gun in hand to
protect my household from sword and
brand.
That / am only one of a hundred
million American citizens who share
my sense of responsibility in the con-
flict does not greatly matter This Is
my war; it pleases me TO think of 1t
as something personal and intimate,
undertaken at my behest and impOs-
ing upon me responsibilities which
should be the basest coward to shirk.
Within a short distance Of my home
sleep my two great-grandfathers who
were soldiers under Washington and
my father who fought under Lincoln.
They made this my war; The Ameri-
can citizens who persisted on the Lusi-
tania made this my war. Every shot
fired at an American ship, every man
wounded or killed under the Stars
and Stripes intensifies my realization
that this is indeed my war.
The right of my children to free
dom, happiness and peace make this
my war. And 1t is my business, my
politics and my religion to do my ut
most, at any sacrifice, that this war,
my war. may be carried to trium-
plant conclusion. No dollar l can
earn, no privileges l enjoy, no faith
l hold In man or God will avail me
aught unless I win this war.
This war is my job. l stand alone
and take counsel Of my conscience as
to whether l am doing all that l can
to win it. The demands are constant.
The war that my blood cried for Is
not cheap. But viewing the mighty
conflict as a vast undertaking, carried
on by the United States of America
for my benefit, 1t is not becoming In
me to fret or bubble over the cost.
The fourth Liberty loan is about to
be offered. 1t Is In my heart to sub
scribe the whole issue, but this being
impossible, 1t is with elatiOn that !
reflect upon the millions who will say
to themselves: This is my war and
dig up their dollars and buy bonds.
This is my war, your war, our war;.
Every investor In the Liberty loan
qualities as an active member Of the
great fellowship Of American demOc-
racy. Every Oversubscription of
Liberty loan Is an American triumph,
stunning defeat for autocracy and
barbarism.
Win the war and win 1t quickly.
Whip the devil; and beat the kaiser.
This is my cause and yours; this IL
our war!

Why a Nod Means "Yes.n

The idea Of nodding to mean "Yes"
comes from the opposite Of the action
which, as may be supposed, indicates
"No." When the young animal was
anxious to accept the offered food it
made an effort to get at the food quick
ly. Hence the pushing forward Of
the head and the open mouth and an
expression Of gladness. You will no.
tice If you see anyone nod the head
to indicate "Yes," that the lips are
open rather than closed and that there
is usually smile or an indication Of
smile to accompany II. In other
wordse the nod to mean eyes" is only
another way Of saying II shall be
pleased. "Book Of Wonders"

TNRtSAERS HAVE
PLENTY COAL
FUEL ADMINISTRATION WILL
SEE THAT THRESHERS IN N. D.
ARE SUPPLIED WITH COAL

The grain-threshing season will be-
gin in some parts Of the country IN
the next thirty days and will continue
throughout the country as the season
advances and grain natures. The
supply Of coal for threshcrs is a very
important matter. The threshing in
dustry has been classified by the
Priorities Committee Of the War In
dustries Board as belonging under the
following classification as shown on
Preference List No. l:
"Food-Plants manufacturing, Mill
ing, Preparing, refining, preserving
and wholesaling food for human con-
sumption"
The threshing industry in years
Fast has largely used domestic sizes
of bituminous coal for thresh;ng. This
year, in many parts of the country,
the supply of domestic coal IS limit
ed, and except where there seems to
re a plentiful supply, operators, ship
pers and dealers supplying threshers
should supply mine run coal or other
grades of steam coal. Nut and slack
sizes, generally speaking, are not
suitable and should not be supplied.
The Food Administration has a
threshing committee in each county
headed by a chairman who has been
asked by the Food Administration to
work with our State and County Fuel
Administrators so as to provide the
necessary supply of threshing coal.
Operators accepting shipments for
Williston graphic., 1918-06-20

threshing coal should give same pre-
ferred attention so that the coal, as
far as possible, can move in advance
of the threshing season and retail
dealers ordering coal for resale tc
threshers, should order promptly and
make every effort to keep themselves
supplied with sufficient supply to
protect threshers, but should not en-.
deavor to accumulate large stocks OF
coal in excess of the known require
ments of the threshing industry.
Where threshermen fail to secure
supply direct, or retail dealers or
dering for threshermen are unable 10
secure a supply, in such cases tney
should make their requirements
known through the County Fuel a.
ministrators to the State Fuel Ad-
ministrators, who in turn will place a
request for the requirements in ques-
ton with a District Representative
serving the consuming territory IN
question, and in such cases District
Representatives will see that prompt
attention is given the request.
j. B. Lyon of Williston is district
chairman for Williams and McKen-
zie counties and will look after the
requirements of coal in this district.
