Organize Junior Red Cross.

A Junior Red Cross social was
given at the Blake school February
21. A program was rendered by the
school and this was received with
hearty applause by the audience
The program was followed by gen
erous supper, and after that games
were played till it was time to go
home. The people of the district
responded literally, $40 being raised
for the Junior Red Cross. Miss
Robertson is the teacher in that
school, and appears to be making a
fine record.

The Automobile
Versus Motor Boat

Owning both an auto and a mo-
ttor boat" says q writer In the jan
uary issue Of Motor Boating. there
is no question in my mind that
derive more pleasure from the boat
than from the auto.
In the first place the auto Is lin.
tied to six or seven guests. while you
can give pleasure to double this mum.
Der with the average motor, boat.
and the old saying is The more. the
merrier."
The auto il confined to narrow
dusty and frequently very rough
roads upon which the driver must
keep his eyes lest the machine be
wrecked. On the motor boat there
lie so little restriction that the steers
man may enjoy the outing as much
as the passengers or guests. as there
Is always some one along who Il
able to steer and give the owner re-
lief. On the auto In most cases tn
owner does all the work and get'
the least pleasure.

ONLY A VOLUNTEER

Why didn't wait to be drafted.
And be led to the station by a band.
And put In a claim for exemption.
Oh. why did hold up my hand?
Why didn't wait for the banquet?
Why didn't I wait to be cheered?
For the drafted man gets all of the
credit.
While merely volunteered.
And nobody gave me a banquet,
Nobody said kind word,
The puff of the engine. the grind of
the wheels.
Was all the goodbye that I heard.
Then off to the training camp hustled
To be trained for the next hall year.
And in the shuttle forgotten,
I was only q volunteer.
But perhaps some day In the future.
When my little boy sits on my knee.
And asks me what did in the great
war.
And his little eyes look at me.
will have to look back into those
eyes.
That to me so trustingly peer.
And tell him that I wasn't drafted
I was only volunteer.

that the railroads, under their old

RAILROAD OPERATION

Opinions differ very widely on the
extent to which the government
should go in its experiment of rail-
road control. There are certain gen
eral principles of business success
that all people of sound sense will
want to see recognized.
1t will be a big question to de-
eide, how far the government should
interfere with the organization and
executive forces of a railroad cor
poration. II on some roads 1t ap-
pears that good results are not being
attained, IL freight is not moving as
1t should, it is to be expected that
the government will insist on the
changes.
The people will wish to have the
element of politics entirely cut out
They will not want any man TO be
advanced or retarded because he is
a Republican or a Democrat. Nor
will they want Congressman attempt
ing to interfere and secure jobs and
promotions for their friends. In
handling the executive forces of
railroads. the government should be
governed solely by the capacity men
have shown In their past record.

THE WORLDS FOOD
SHORTAGE

Our people might well reflect on
the patient frugality by which Japan
has become a great nation, though
living on a small group Of islands
with poor soils. They fought and
financed great war, and have
grown to great Industrial nation,
on diet mostly Of rice. root crops.
barley, vegetables. and fish.
In Great Britain the farmers are
already growing six months wheat
supply on their cramped territory.
They expect to be able very nearly
to feed themselves in 1918. Yet our
country with its vast acres can hard
ly raise Its own food.
Beans with their rich soils and
proteins are splendid war time
substitute for meat. Potatoes form
6S per cent of the food of Germany,
Austria, and Russia. The Germans
have certainly demonstrated on this
diet their physical ability.
Rice is the staple Of the Chinese
Empire. a nation Of hard working
industry. Our rice production has
tripled in five years. and our people
are fast learning its value. Wheat
has only three fourths the nutrition
of cleaned rice. The difficulty is
that rice production requires extern
sive plants for irrigation and other
equipment. In these times 1t Is not
easy to find capital for such devel-
opment.
In conclusion of this series It may
be remarked that the worlds food
shortage will not wholly end when
the war closes. though that will at
ford some relief. There are causes
even more fundamental than the
great war. We need scientific ag-
riculture. home gardening. intensive
farming. more food producers. And
one Of the greatest needs Is the
saving of more capital to put into
farm enterprises and equipment
Every man who saves dollar and
puts 1t into enterprises that helps
agriculture. does something to relieve
food shortage.

INCREASES BUREAUCRATIC
TENDENCIES

lNSItEASEo 1AO
TENDENCIES
Many Dakota farmers were much
dissatisfied with the way their wheat
was marketed. They said 1t was un-
fairly graded; that they were cheat
ed by certain trade practices; that
middlemen and spectators rugged
the market against the producer.
They wanted to control the market
ing machinery; they wanted better
warehousing; they wanted better
credit facilities.
So they organized a political par
ty; and In North Dakota they have
pretty completely captured the state.
Being in political possession they
will. no doubt, require the state ia
set up and operate the kinds OF
marketing, warehousing and credit
system they want.
This is the logical fruit Of our re-
cent political bent; and 1t seems to
be unfortunately true that Dakota
farmers had cause to distrust the old
political organization. But we think
they would have done better to have
organized in non-political co-opera'
ton, by which they could undoubt.
eddy have set up their own country
elevators and terminal warehouses.
and secured a fair grading system
and ample credit facilities: for the
credit of organized cooperating far
mers would be almost equal to that
Of the state itself.
For some years all the pull has
been away from cooperation on a
large scale aud toward political &C
ton. The accepted program for any
big class or group has been to de-
mand that the state should do what
+, ever 1t wanted done. instead OF the
members OF the class or group DOING
1t themselves by non-political coop
Grafton. This. Of course. tends tt
make state government prize to b
seized by whatever class can muster
the most votes. 1t increases the In
clination to rely on the state FOL
everything.
The state. at best. is lumberinl
stiff jointed affair. with powerful
bureaucratic tendencies and an In
eradicable inclination toward part
politics. The whole world Is LOOKING
toward closer Industrial organization
