Bismarck ward committees for the

made in the capital city next Monday,

toes for the great effort.

equivalent to 81 per capita. Minimum
allotments have been made for every
man. and woman in Bismarck. and the
boys and girls will be given an oppor-
tunity to help if they wish to volun-
teer. The minimum allotments have
been made so small that anyone who
chooses may easily double his quota,
but no large oversubscription is
sought, and it is not believed it will
be necessary, for Burleigh county,
outside Of Bismarck, will easily 90

the county's total of 5000. says Sen

The approaching drive will cover
seven big war work organizations -
the Y. NJ. c. A, Knights of Columbus,
Salvation Army, y. w. c. A.. War
Camps Community service, American
Library association and Jewish Young
Mems Relief association. Instead OF
seven separate drives, all of these Or

they have scaled their requirements
down to tn lowest possible level. AS
result, each individual subs 'riber's

Of state. 'Petrograd." he said, was
a starving and deserted city when /

a deserted street hitched to cab. In

dropped dead You pass that way a

Not an unusual number of absent
voter ballots was counted In any
ward
Indications are that approximately
10000 votes will be east in today'S
general election. The number is not
expected to exceed 100000 and il may
be 5000 less There are fully $4,000
soldier votes out of the state, and
probably forr-ifths Of that number
out of the country, and a very small
percentage of the latter will be count
ted under the soldiers absentee voter
act passed by the special session Of
legislature last winter.
The greater. proportion of these SOL
dior votes have been taken from the
city. If it is true that the country

/ pcctcd to help the-Townley ticket. On
the other hand, the flu epidemic is

the majoritieS there to some extent.
1t is not believed there will be a mar
gin of more than 5000 votes between
Doyle and Frazier Minnie j. Mel
son is expected to nose out Neil C..
Macdonald for state superintendent Of
public instruction by 1000 votes, and
it is expected that Judge Charles J..
Fisk will give Assistant Attorney Gen
rral H. A. Bronson a stiff race for the
associate justiceship. Burleigh
county it is believed, will elect an anti
league legislative ticket, and it is
hoped that there will be named two
who are opposed to the league bond

league amendments will lose by Il

This is the mcssage:

which the people of the United States
feel for the Russian people at this

of Russia

Gardening Is tt t@' 'Ats@'f "''
lertaktug in Minnesota THIS year
Last wear village town and rl'y
dwellcrs made IA beginning. but
this wear every vacant lot Is eN-
pected to be put to service ana
made to do its patriotic duty.
Gardening is to be made An orga
nized industry instead of a series
of sporadic individual expert
mentS.
The Commission of Public
Safety is urging community ac-
ton in war gardening turnout
the state. All communities have
been asked to get busy early,
both to increase the number of
gardens, and to limit planting to
the vegetables which will be
most available to relieve the
food stringency. The whole
garden program is summed up
in two phrases: Grow all you
can: and grow only such vege-
tables as are most needed and
which will keep. The following
fundamentals in successful gard
ening are emphasized:
q. Formulate a definite pro-
gram of production for your
community, prepared by practi-
cal and experienced local gard
eners including only those vege-
tables that can be produced by
the greatest possible number.
Seeds are scarce, therefore a war
garden this year should be linn
tied to few vegetables that can
be easily and proftably pro-
duced.
Secure the services of COM
petent person to supervise the
garden movements in your com
munity. If possible secure the
voluntary services of a good am
ateur gardener in every block to
give aid and advice to his neigh
bors.
50. List all available lots and
vacant land, and as soon as pos
sible, list all who want gardens.
"A. Plan for cooperative
blowing. 1t is not wise, how
ever, to pillow up any land until
it's adaptability has been passed
upon by someone who knows.
IS. Arrange local meetings
and have practical and expert
enced gardeners lecture on the
preparation care and cultivation
Of gardens"
The county agent and agricul.
tural teachers of the high schools
should be very active in this
matter and each community can
look to them to be of splendid
service in organizing the gard.
ening activities of their commu.
mites.
