IN the case Of hogs, for example.
this applies in vo.y pronounced man

Hogs, under ordinary conditions
are very prolific animals, and their
natural increase would be liable tn

Joe Young Hawk, a Sioux m
dian Of Elbowoods, N. D., who is
serving with the American forces,

short time ago by five Germans,
who took his gun away from him.
But Young Hawk was determined
not to remain captured for, very
long at least" says Major A. b.

Mandan Pioneer.
The Indian waited his chance
and then suddenly taking his cap.

Hun and broke his neck, killed
two with the bare hands and n1arch-
ed the other two back to the
American lines. -
He was shot through the leg in
the fight but is now in an American
hospital and getting along as well
as could be expected. And like his
forebears Of old, who liked nothing
better than fight, he is Just ach-
ing to get out Of the hospital and
be at it again"
Major Welch is particularly in.
terested in the Indian soldiers for
since the recent death Of John
Grass, the Sioux chieftain, he be-
came the first white chief Of the
Sioux by reason Of being Grass
adopted son. He is therefore al
ways on the alert to find out just

Joe Young Hawk was a member

Missouri Slope Fair
September 10, II, IL

The government believes thaf i;f
food will win the war and is using
every agency to increase production
and conservation. Agricultural
Fairs are recognized as one Of the
greatest agencies, and the govern
nnent is urging that they be kept
going. They also help to made the
fairs educational by demonstrations
Of methods to increase production
and conservation.
Several of these demonstrations
will be given at the Missouri Slope
Fair at Mandan, September 10, II
and IL, including a demonstration
on grain grading by the Bureau of
Markets, demonstrations on the
food value Of cottage cheese, on can
ming and drying Of the common
garden vegetables by the Extension
Department of the North Dakota
Agricultural College, and a demon-
stration on wheat rust and other
injurious weeds, with specimens of
the Barberry bush. There will also
be an exhibit Of the work of the
Boys and Girls Clubs of the Slope.
This work is we'll organized and
was one Of the features at the State
Fair at Fargo. These demonstrate
ions alone are worth attending the
fair to see, but they are only a small
part Of the work that the Missouri
Slope Fair is doing to help out the
food question. The entire premium
list has been revised in accordance
with the suggestions made by the
various government agencies, so
that n-essentials are eliminated
and only essentials included in the
premiums offered. There is a
special list for Red Cross work, and
a banner will be offered to the Red
Gross Branch making the best
exhibit, in addition to the premiums
paid.
Why do we hold a fair in war
time? Because the government
wishes 1t and we are going tc
make it one Of the agencies
to help win the war. Come and dc
your part.
