of February Is to 25. All the different
branches of the Lutheran faith a
united in carrying out this work,
which will be co-ordinated in the war
commission.
1t is interesting to know that there
are now at Camp Dodge about $4,000
adherents of the Lutheran church,
and in some of the other environments
nearly as large numbers are found.
The English and foreign speaking
branches of the church have joined in
the campaign which will be waged.
The pastors and chaplains who
may be connected with the army will
work in harmony with the Y. NJ. c.
A. so that there will be no lost mo-
ton. But the real purpose is to give
the membership of the Lutheran
churches an opportunity to keep in
touch with their own religious ideals.

LIZ INSANE AT.
STATE ASYLUM
Two Sections of Additional
Land Will Make Hospital
Self Supporting.

Bismarck, N. d., Feb. 5.-With Il
credit of $4,000 now at it's disposal.
as q result of an act OF the speciai
session, the board of control expects
to lose little time in clearing up ou.-
standing bills against the state hos
pitai Tor the insane at jamestown.
After all the Indebtedness of the in
stltution is paid, there will cemain
a satisfactory balance to take care o,
expenditures for the ensuing
which will be in excess of the est
mates made by the budget committee
in the last session.
At a meeting last week, the hoard
OF control adopted a resolution in
creaslng the maintenance fee per
capita for patients at the hospital
from SIS to $24 the month, in ac-
cordance with another act Of the
special session, fixing $24 as the max
imum. h act was given immediate
effect through an emergency clause.
and the new maintenance fee became
operative February l..
There are now LIZ patients al the
state hospital, n the Sc per month
increase for maintenance will add
about $1,000 monthly to the revenues
of the institution. The maintenance
of patients is cared for by the coun-
ties from which they are committed,
except in the case of those whose lie.
gal residence cannot be established.
There are about 100 in this class a,
the state hospital, and the state is
paying for their maintenance.
IF we can induce the mex assem-
bly, to give us another W. sections
of land, we a make the state hos
pital much self-supporting,'
said Chairman Brown of the control
board, Saturday. Many of our pa.
tients are suffering from minor forms
Of dementia which does not prevent
them from being good farmers and
truck gardeners, and there is no oc-
cupation which We can give them
that better affects their mental and
physical condition. AS it is now we
haven't enough land to give all Of
these patients employment. and If we
can produce $4,000 worth of food
stuffs a yea from one section. there
is no reason why, with an abundance
of help, such as we have. we should
not double or treble that Weld"
