People OF the United States, | am
led to believe, do not understand the
true thought and effort of the people
who speak the Arabic language.
I express myself this way to make
a distinction in the word Arab. 1t is
an error for people to think that all
Arabs are the Bendouins OF the des-
ert: therefore say people who speak
the Arabic language This includes
the people of syria, Palestine, Meso-
potamia. and so on. The people of
these districts live in cities. and are
many of them highly educated.
In 1916 the Arabian state was re-
cognized by the British, French. 1tal-
ians and the Russian, and the King
of Hedjaz was welcomed as king
and ally by the British and the allies.

The Arabian army was composed
of Syrians, Mesopotamians and Ara
bians. We dealt with the Turks on
the outposts of Hedjaz; in six months
expelled them and captured thou
sands. At that time we had about
600 men, while the Turks had more
than twice that number facing us.
The Turks. who had been our op-
pressors. seized the sanctuary at
Medina. We did not wish to destroy
this place by bonn bardment, SO we left
the Turks there, hut surrounded the
city and cut them off. They capitui-
ated.
After surrounding Medina. our
army proper proceeded north, We
attacked the Turks at Akaba, cap

One thing which strikes us as
being little out Of place at the
community meetings in Askov is
the continual asking for money
in the presence Ct good visiting
speakers. Perhaps it is neces-
sary to bring the matter up
when the largest crowd is pres
ent in order to get money enough
to keep things going. but it ap-
pears that it must be rather en-
barrassing for the speaker to sit
and listen to all the "plugging"
that must be done to get in a
few sheckles. Should think that
il almost makes him feel that
he is a burden to the community.
At some meetings the audience
has been reminded two or three
times Of the fact that man will
be at the door to accept money
as you pass. Could the financial
affairs of these meetings not be
arranged among ourselves at a
separate meeting?

VIGOROUS HEN FOR BREEDING
Fowl That Lays Well All Winter Unti,
for That Purpose-Chicks
Not Strong.

The old hens use for breeders are
selected early In the winter months
and penned to themselves. In select
ing hens for breeders, the first point
consider is vigor. A hen that does not
show an appearance Of vigor Is re-
jected. no matter how many fancy
points she scores.
The old hens are fed maintenance
ration--that Ia. ration that will keep
them we'll nourished without unduly
stimulating egg production. My ex.
perience Is that hen that lays well
pen, says writer in an exchange,
Her eggs will not usually run high in
fertility, and the chicks that hatch will
not be strong. The reason for this Is
that heavy egg production Is weaken.
ing. and that the hen cannot impart
to her offspring strong. vigorous con.
stitution when she herself Is In a
weakened condition.
A month before eggs are wanted for
Matching I gradually work the hens
back to a laying ration. Beef scrap Is
added to the mash and the ration is
made less bulky in character. My ex.
perience is that when these hens dc
commence laying, they lay much bet.
ter than the ones that laid well all
winter. And they are much less likely
to 60 broody at the time when eggs
are especially wanted for breeding.

sore all the way through that he
does not know how to act. Why
don't you say anything about one
printers bill in Pine County on
his personal property tax list
being cut from about 500 to $50
by the state printer. No, that
wasn't the American and is not
anyone you are determined to
injure if you can. The slap that
you got on that 81 bid is prob
ably still grinding in you and we
repeat that had the American
put in a bid for 81 on county
printing we would be utterly
ashamed Of ever mentioning it..
On the face Of it, it looks slip
perry, as no man can afford to do
several hundred dollars worth of
work for 81 unless he has built
up a reserve on the county in
former years or expects to do it
later. Our challenge still stands,
take. your figures from the cost
Of county printing in 1916 and
what you would have charged
the county this year had you got
ten it, add those together and
compare them with the total of
the two years the American has
the printing 1913 and 1919. A
81 mans figures for two or more
years sometimes become inter
esting. Now it is either put up
or shut up on this county print
ing costing the county more than
it should. The fact Of the mat
ter is that the Americans price
on county printing this year is
only about one-third of what it
was in 1916 when Folsom was at
the head of it.
The trouble is that little How
ard used to have things too
much his own way in Pine coun-
ty. If the rest Of the newspa-
per men did not let him have his
way and let him get the hog end
Of it he would raise such a stink
and fuss that they finally let
him go ahead rather than to have
any trouble. But the American
has decided different, and that
is what hurts and makes little
Howard kick, spit and whine. II
you don't already know it little
Howard we will state publicly
that we are ready for all the dirt
you can throw.

Evidently little Howard {

Evidently little Howard (Mr.
Folsom. editor Pine Poker. Pine
City, is bent on doing the Askov
American injury. for recently he
came out with an article on the
front page of the Poker with a
large, conspicuous heading stat
ing that the American had over
charged on it's personal property
tax bill against the county.
The publishing Of the personal
property tax list is new state
law which went into effect two
years ago and the amount. to be
paid for that is set by law,
namely 75c per folio. The coun-
ty treasurer Of each county is
the man who has to distribute
these lists for publication in the
county newspapers and naturally
they are given to the paper in
which the lists are tributary, as
for instance in the case of the
Askov American the personal
property tax lists of several
townships are published as the
American is their nearest paper
and has the largest circulation
in those townships. But to make
the story short little Howard
claimed that those lists in the
American should have been
printed at the same rate as our
bid on the big county printing
job. namely 25c per folio.
Whether or not the American
had the county printing this
year we would get that personal
property tax list to print any
way and would receive 75c per
folio. The personal property tax
list does not come under the
county printing. there is no bid
asked on it and there cannot be
any bid on it according to law,
and why should the American
not be entitled to the same rate
on it's share of the personal pro-
perty tax list ms is the Pine
Poker or any other newspaper
in the county and for that mat
ter the whole state of Minnesota.
I'm order to be perfectly sure and
to get the opinion of the highest
authority the county auditor
wrote to the Attorney General
and asked in regard to this mat
ter. The Attorney Generals de-
cision was that the Askov Ameri-
can was right. Pretty soon we
expect to see little Howard an
nounce that the editor of the
American had made a trip down
to see the Attorney General as
he announced that the American
editor was present at the last
county commissioners meeting.
The trouble with little Howard
is that he hasn't the drag he had
back in 1910. and is so jealous and
