Admiral Wilson is building
up a tradition of good will
coupled with efficiency that
compares with the similar
link between France and
United States that Pershing
and his soldiers are forging
farther inland. French naval
men have expressed their de-
light in a hundred ways at
the courage, audacity and
seaInanlike skill Of Admiral
Wilson's forces.
Wilson is the personifica-
ton of energy" said one Of
his intimate friends. "At the
same time he is painstaking
to the last degree. He never
spares himself, but is on the

A Column Devoted To The Task OF Keep
ing Up With North Dakota Editors

The Portal International pays the following
tribute to it's shock troops:
THE Portal shock troops have done a
wonderful work since harvest in this district
started. Nearly all Of the grain cut in ra-
dius of several miles about the city has been
shocked by the business men and citizens.
While the boys will receive pay for their
labor, we are sure that the farmers who have
received their assistance in handling the
crops very grateful Harvest hands are
very scarce and the farmers would have the
greater part OF their grain unshocked If the
city fellows had not turned out and done their
bit. How much better for everybody con-
cerned if farmer and business man would
have more team work in handling the prob
lens of the farm and business house. Then,
Townleyism would dry up and fade away and
North Dakota would be delightful place in
which to live.
The Mandan Pioneer has the following to say
about the use of the German language in schools
State Council of Defense jockeyed around
with the order relating to teaching German
in the parochial schools, and result it
gave permission to use that language in such
schools they committed crime against chill
dren of German parentage who are forced to
attend such schools.
There are thousands Of children of Ger
man parentage in this country, yes thous-
ands who have grown to manhood or woman
hood who are carrying around burden Of
broken English, all because Of this palaver-
ing of politicians OF the stripe of LANCER,
who have not now, and in times past have
not had, the courage to put down their foot
and bar the use of foreign Languages in our
parochial schools. yes and in some cases in
our public schools at a time when the child
was of tender years, and forming habits of
speech.

PUTTING YARD TO BEST USE
Bulletin Of Department Of Agriculture
Olives Some Valuable Information
ID, to Those Interested.

The best methods to follow and the
best crops to grow in order to make
a small area like a back yard produce
the maximum amount Of food for the
family are discussed In a publication
Of the United States department OF
agriculture, Farmers Bulletin 818,
''The Small Vegetable Garden" In
addition to furnishing information In
regard to the fundamental principles
Of gardening, this bulletin describes in
detail the culture Of all Of the common
garden plants, and also furnishes q ia
BILE showing in a concise form the
quantity Of seed needed for each kind
Of vegetable, the proper way and times
to plant, and the material required to
produce the crop. ...,
To make q small area produce a
large amount Of food, the bulletin
points out that not only every foot Of
available space must be utilized, but
that late or succession crops must be
planted as soon as the earlier plants
have been removed. To carry on gar
dening in this Intensive way requires
careful planning in advance, and it is
recommended that detailed diagram
Of the garden be drawn up and the va
rious uses that it is planned to put
each portion to, throughout the grow
ing season, be clearly indicated. On
this plan the success or failure Of the
various, enterprises should be noted
and the plan itself kept an guide for
the following year.
