A MIGHTY GOOD
SUGGESTION
P. R. Trubshaw, Esq,
Editor. TimeS-Record

EUlCOF, llHleS-neCOTO:
Dear Sir: In view of the fact that
the fight for civilization and human
ity has been won and Peace assured
this seems an opportune time to call
the attention of the citizens of Barnes
county to the great number of "Boys''
who have gone from this county who
helped to win this war, and l believe
no one will doubt but what the services
rendered by them will in many ways
be recognized and proper appreciation
shown.
Iwould however suggest and recon-
mend that a suitable bronze tablet be
secured upon which should appear the
name Of every soldier who entered the
service from Barnes county in the
fight for humanity; as lasting me-
mortal and tribute not only to those
"Boys" who have made the supreme
sacrifice, but to those who have en-
tered the service whens called on. The
tablet should be erected where it
would be easy Of access to the public
the court house grounds being a good
location, and l believe that no tax
payer would object if the county COM
missioners would appropriate the ne
cessary funds to defray this expense,
but if for any reason the commission
ers cannot see their way clear to take
public funds for this purpose there is
no reason to doubt but what the re-
quired funds could be raised by popu-
lar subscription. It is not too early
to start the matter now. Let us do
it now.
Yours truly, ....
w. w. SMITH.

BUTTER PRICES
TO STAY HIGH

Bismarck, Nov. 29.-No relief is in
sight from the prevailing high prices
of butter in the opinion Of j. J. Oster-
haus, state dairy commissioner, who
sees no limit to the soaring prices OF
the bread spread but the "bright blue
sky"
the bugaboo trade law of demand and
supply" said Mr.. Osterhaus today
There is claimed to be shortage Of
butter. If there is actually any, it is
due to the governments taking over
go per cent Of the butter in storage.
"Under normal conditions the pro-
duction of butter begins to exceed the
natural demand about May and from
then on large surpluses re placed in
storage for the latter use. About Sept
1 the storage butter is placed on the
market production falls off, with the
result that a fairly even market is
maintained.
early this fall the war department
commandeered 60 per cent of all but
ter in storage at that time and sub
sequently most of the remaining 40
per cent has been taken out. Conse-
uuently the butter we are getting now
is coming almost dierct from the
churns. In other words we are using
fresh instead of storage butter.
Whether there is shortage or not we
can depend upon the middleman to
take advantage fiof the situation and
manipulate prices while the public
pays the bill"

TOO MANY MEN ON THE COAST


For the first time since the com
mencement of the big shipbuilding ac-
tivities there are now more workers
than jobs on the Pacific coast, accord
ing to advices from the federal direc-
tor at Seattle, received yesterday by
the North Dakota office of the United
States employment service.
The federal director states that no
more carpenters are needed in the vi
cinity of Seattle and that large num-
ber of girls and women who came to
the coast to work are unable to obtain
employment.
Lindley H. Patten, state director of
the employment service for North Da-
kota, advises that no one go to the
coast looking for work without first
investigating conditions through the
employment service.
"Men in this state stand better
show of getting employment right
here at home,' Mr.. Patten said. eve
can place many men in good-paying
farm positions for the winter; also
in the mines and on the railroads. We
have many calls for men for work in
the lumber woods in Minnesota"
Mr.. Patten anticipates no shortage
of labor in this state for agricultural
pursuits next season.

AMENDMENTS HAVE
NOT CARRIED

Bismarck, Dec. 4.-Secretary of
State Halls official tabulation of Of
fetal returns from al out of So coun-
ties shows that out of a total vote of
73,O59 on the governorship, the debt
limit amendment proposed by the
Nonpartisan league garnered but &c.
096, or 434 less than the required ma
jority. The IL counties yet missing
are not expected to materially change
the result.
The total of all votes cast, is ma
terially greater than the vote cast for
governor and increases the vote the
debt limit and other Nonpartisan
amendments must have.
"1t is my opinion that all of the
league amendments to the constitu-
tion have lost by around 800 votes,"
said Secretary of State Hall today.
With IL counties missing, the more
important amendments are from 400
to 600 votes behind the required ma
jority."
There is no indication as yet of the
suit promised by the Nonpartisan
league organs to test out the wording
of the initiative amendment to the
constitution, which requires that
amendments proposed by initiative Pc
tition must receive a majority of "all
the qualified electors voting at such
general election" So far as can be
learned the attorney general has not
been asked for an opinion on this sub
ject.

PEARL BAARSTAD !:
DIES SUDDENLY

The hand of death has visited an
other Valley City home and removed
a loved one. This time it is Miss
Pearl Baarstad, the fourteen year old
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Thor Baar-
stad who died between five and six
o'clock this morning after just few
hours sickness. Miss Pearl had the
influenza about 6 weeks ago and was
apparently all right. Last night she
and friend were at the library and
on the way home was taken very
sick and died early this morning. The
bereaved parents certainly have the
sympathy of their friends in this dark
hour of sorrow. May they find conso-
alton in the thought that "He who
doeth all things welll,' has only called
Pearl to her heavenly home there to
await the coming of those who have
been left behind.

FREE OF CHARGE

The department of music considers
it self fortunate to be in position to
announce to the public departure,
that should in time prove to be of i'm
mense value in the promotion of mu-
sical appreciation in our own city
and throughout the entire state.
Beginning with the winter term ele-
mentary instruction will be offered
free of charge to all regular students
in the entire school. Glasses in violin
and piano will be formed and the work
will be conducted in such way as to
give the students good musical foun-
dation, so they will gain finer appre-
citation of music and will be capable
of starting classes of their own when
they 20 out to teach in rural commun-
tiles. One need not be a prophet to
foretell what this eventually will mean
not only to the musical life of the
state, but in a more general way, to
the people living on the farms and in
the smaller towns.
The school owns a number of vlo-
Inns that will be loaned to students,
who desire to take up the work, and
it is expected that many will avail
themselves of this opportunity to get
musical instruction without any ex-
pense other than that of buying the
music incidental to the class work.

POTATO FLOUR :
MAY Be USED

Waste or surplus potatoes should
be made into starch for potato flour.
Starch for sizing can be made from
frozen or even from rotten potatoes.
A starch factory would eliminate the
waste that results from freezing which
may be considerable some years, ac-
cording to DR.. P. F. Trobridge of the
North Dakota Agricultural college.
DR.. Trowbridge, director of the
North Dakota experiment station, who
attended the National Potato Growers
association convention at Milwaukee
reports that a good deal of attention
is being given to making potatoes in
to flour and into starch. 1t was
brought out that bakers can use 6 per
cent of potato flour in bread to good
advantage 1t could take 900 potato
flour mills to supply the necessary
amount while at present there are but
three or four in the United States, he
reports Germany had some 300 such
factories when the war started, but
has now about 5000 and it was by
this means that the food supply was
largely solved.
The drying Of other vegetables was
also considered at this meeting, as
we'll as making these into starch.
Factories for converting sweet pota-
toes into flour are being built in the
south.
Factories for making potatoes into
starch or flour will help to stabilize
the price of potatoes, as when there is
surplus the excess portion can be
converted into products that will keep
for considerable time and that are
easily transported, it was brought out
at the convention.

GOVERNMENT AID
INTENDING TEACHERS

Fifty thousand teachers places are
vacant, and 10000 persons are teach
ing this year who have never before
taught a class. Several thousand
schools have actually closed or have
remained unopened because it was i'm
possible for the local trustees to find
teachers for them. The lowered
standards in many places and the total
lack of instruction in others mean a
loss to the children of the nation
which cannot be replaced.
The shortage of teachers affects
nearly every state in the union. Many
urgent requests have been made for
the assistance of the United States
Bureau of Education, for it is clearly
impossible for some of the states to
man their schools with the teachers
available in their own borders.
President Wilson has been moved
by this condition. He has directed the
establishment in the Bureau of Edu-
cation of new division to assist local
officers in finding teachers to meet
the emergency, and he has wrotten an
open letter of appeal to all who are
qualified and able to teach, urging
them to signify their willingness to
do so by registering with the new
School Board Service Division of the
Bureau Of Education, in Washington.
Schools seeking teachers will be put
in touch with registrants, with the ex-
pectation of employment in the regu-
lar way. No charge whatever will be
made to either the registrants or to
the schools for the service.
It is we'll known that in every COM
munity there are women who formerly
taught, whose husbands are now in
the army or in other branches Of the
Government service, or whose homes
do not demand all their time. Such
women are specially needed in the
schools now.
High schools all over tR' ountry
have suffered from the demand for
men of scientific training for service
in munition plants, the chemical war
fare branch of the army, and the like.
The shortage of teachers of chemistry
and physics is particularly acute. 1t
is pointed out that this shortage might
be met in many cases if physicians,
pharamsts, and other professional
men would take classes in nearby
schools for part of each day.

RIVETINC COLLARS
ON LEGISLATORS

The signing up of the Nonpartisan
league members-elect of the North
Dakota legislature to the program
dictated by the socialist leaders OF
the league, already is in progress
with A. E. Bowen, Mr.. Townley's
chief aide within the league, in
charge Of the work.
Two years ago the Socialists
awaited the convening of the legis-
ature before they signed up, but this
year it is already apparent that a
new plan is being worked out, and
that the Legislators are being COM
mitted for in advance to be bound
by the league system of handling
legislation.
Whether or not the signing UP pro.
cess calls for the continuance of the
secret caucus in the coming assem-.
bly,, is not at this time clear, but re-
ports received from several points IN
the state where Mr.. Bowen has held
meetings with the legislators elect
indicate that such is the case.
While Mr.. Bowen is the chief in
charge Of the signing up process, he
is being aided by other leaders of the
league movement, and it is said to
be their aim to cover the whole state
within the next two or three weeks
Estimates place the Nonpartisan
strength in the house at about 80
while in the senate the league will
have about 35 members, according to
the present lineup. Each Nonparti-
san supported candidate for the leg
lslature is expected to abide abso-
lutely by the program laid down for
them by the league leaders, and
there is every indication that the no.
torious caucus system, by which all
legislation is dealt with secretly, will
be continued, the Socialists contend
in gthat it is necessary to the sue
cesswul working out of their plans.
Among conferences Mr.. Bowen has
held so far was one at Hillsboro
where the three house members.
elect, Messrs. Strom, Moen and Nes-
Wig met with Mr.. Bowen. Another

been held at Jamestown on Wednes-
day of this week.
There are indications, too, that Mr.
Bowen will be on the job at Bis.
