WOMEN URGED TO
z HELP RED CROSS
COMPLETE i WORK

A most, urgent appeal was issued
this morning to patriotic Bismarck
women TO- assist the Red Cross with
the completion OF the pajamas and
refugee garments now under way at
the local Red Cross rooms in the Ma
sonic temple. 1t is desired to COM
plete this work, by January 20, and
the rooms cannot be closed until this
task is finished. The Masonic temple
is being heated daily merely for the
benefit of these workers, and the num-
Der reporting has been SO few as to
hardly justify this expenditure. Red
Cross officials say that if a sufficient
number of~workers will turn out, the
garments can be completed in very
short order

H A review, Of the 1918 season dis
closes generous and patriotic re-
sponse by the North Dakota farmers
to the nations call for greater acre
age of foodstuffs. The cultivated acre
age in North Dakota this season was
100000 acres, exceeding the record
acreage Of 1917 by l,365,00O acres,
: or an increase Of about nine per cent.
These acreage figures best show the
great effort put forth by the farmers.
Credit is also due to county agricu!-
ttural agents, business firms, yand ipeo-
pie Of the cities and towns, over the
state who at harvest materially aided
to make this splendid war record COM
Aplete. fhis incI easea acreage was en-
tirely confined to the bread food crops,
wheat and rye. Wheat showed an
unusually heavy increase of eleven
per cent. Rye acreage showed a tre-
Hlend0us increase OF practically lOO
per cent over the harvested acreage
in 1917, Notwithstanding thetfact that
slightly more than 10 per cent of the
fan planted acreage was ploWed down
last spring. North Dakota leads the
United States this season in the har-
vested acreage of all wheat, barley,
rye and fax. s,
The 1913 spring opened up extreme
ly early and the soil remained nearly
ideal for field work.. A record amount
of blowing and seeding was complet-
ed by May l. Heavy winds of un-
usually long duration and severe
frosts up to May Is caused small
loss of acreage on the lighter soils
= ~x,I al inf n
pearance....S EARLY Seeding, however,
had given grains deep, vigorous root
growth and following the late May
rains all crops showed a wonderful
recovery. The state crop outlook for
June l was favorable. Drought con-
ditions followed up to July 20 over
the western half Of the state, which
was undergoing it's second year of
soil moisture deficiency and gradually
reduced crop prospects in this area
to either moderate or low yields.
Crops IN northwestern counties were
especially poor. Drought conditions
were much less severe in most Of the
eastern half of the state, and with
the advent of late July rains, nearly
all crops, and especially wheat, made
a noticeably quick recovery. Wheat
yields, in most counties Of the eastern
third Of the state averaged around a

VOICE OF THE ALASKA PRESS

Valdez has one city official who has not earned his salary since his installation in office. It is Fire Chief Levy, who has not had chance to display his uniform since he took of fee over a year ago. Some of MT. Levy's friends are figuring on start ing small blaze to give him chance to display his ability-Valdez Miner.
 The Arctic explorer, Stefansson, seems to appreciate the potential pos abilities of the Arctic regions, and to see in the reindeer and musk oxen great meat supply for generations yet unborn, if the industry is devel- oped. The Times is among those who have been trying to encourage the reindeer industry in Alaska. There should be several herds of reindeer in this part of Alaska, where there is adequate grazing grounds for them. Caribou are native to the Nelchina and upper Susitna regions, and the reindeer is nothing more nor less than the barren ground caribou. Hence, where caribou can live, reindeer can subsist.-Anchorag Times.
 At the head of the Portland canal lies a rich mining district, both on the American and Canadian sides. On the American side is the thriving lit tie town of Hyder, and back of it are number of prospectors, miners op- eratnig on a small scale, and prop critics which give evidence that they will develop into big producers
 Although but comparatively short distance from Ketchikan, little or no business from that district is coming to town. Prospectors from that coun- try, as we'll as men in other lines of industries, have indicated time and time again that they would like to trade with Ketchikan, if they could get the facilities.
 At the present time, passengers and freight go by Canadian vessels and are transshipped at Prince Rupert and then shipped to Hyder.
 Through an unwarranted spirit of magnanimity, Uncle Sam, when the boundary lines were to be located, did not follow the natural dividing line north from the head of Portland canal, and now it develops that rich mining property was presented our neighbors across the line. But even part of the trade of that mine may be secured if a boat service is estab- lished between Ketchikan and Hyder, with stops at camps along the canal. -Ketchikan Times.

SALARIES OF TEACHERS

It is gratifying to know that there is general movement throughout the country in favor of properly com pensating school teachers for the services they render. It is at present a poorly paid profession and offers but little encouragement for any one to devote the time and money neces- sary to equip themselves to engage in this life's work. Cordova has an ex- ceptionally efficient staff of instruct ors and it is up to the local board to show it's appreciation of good service by giving the members a substantial increase in salary. Other Alaskan towns are setting the pace and Cor dova can afford to do no less than reward it's teachers by making their salaries in keeping with those paid elsewhere if it hopes to retain con- potent instructors. On the subject, Salaries of Teachers, the Seattle Post Intelligencer says:
 The disparity between the salaries ordinarily paid to teachers, and es- pecially common school teachers, and the salaries earned by men and women in other professions requiring equal intelligence and education, is not only inducing many teachers to take up other pursuits, but it is de- creasing the attendance in some of the normal schools and cutting down the annual supply of graduate teachers. The number of teachers turned out by the normal schools is steadily decreasing, while the demand for them is growing year by year. Under the law of supply and demand salaries are thus due for a rise, what ever views individual members of school boards may entertain.
 Wisconsin newspapers report that the shortage of teachers in that state is largely due to the shrinkage in the number of normal school graduates, and the condition is paralleled in many other states. In 1916 the num- Der of normal school graduates were required that year. In 1919 Wisconsin normal schools will turn out only 2,9OO, while $500 new teachers were half the number that will be required next September when the new school year begins.
 Falling off in normal school at- tendance is attributed wholly to the scant promise that graduation offers for lucrative work. Capable young men and women simply see larger opportunities in earning power and for advancement in other fields, and they are going into business and into professions not so exacting, with more individual liberty and less need for close personal economies.
 The marked increase in the cost of living, of clothing, food, rents and every item of human need, is showing no signs of being merely temporary condition Wage scales controlled by organized labor have been pushed up accordingly, and are likely to remain up. With higher labor costs, the mar ket prices of commodities are not going to recede very much. This con dition leaves the unorganized class with income and outgo running very close race, and either their earnings must be increased or there Is going to be great loss of interst and of an nual supply in these vacations.

GET INTO THE GAME

Life is like game of cards. Some must win. Some must lose. It all depends upon the player and on the gambling chances that may favor or dtsappoint him.
 All have the same gambling chance so the players ability really deter mines whether he shall be 8 loser or a winner. Assiduity, persistence practice and patience all help to make him a winner. and the lack of these a loser.
 Those who win make their gains at, the expense of those who lose'
The Cordova daily times., 1919-05-15

There must always be winners and losers, the winners rejoicing and the losers disappointed, complaining and jealous of the winners.
 How much like the experience of everyday life! Some succeed because of their diligence, earnestness and ceaseless ambition, others lose be. cause of the lack of these winning qualities.
 Some live in well-deserved ease and comfort on the proceeds of their success, others in discomfort, pro- claiming that they suffer from in justice.
 Everybody must play the game of life, and, like the game of cards, in the end every gamester must be a loser. Only the Grim Reaper is sure to be the winner in the end.-Leslie's.

IN THE AIR OR UNDER THE SEA

Is there to be another race for the North pole, this time between Rear Admiral Robert D. Peary, U. s. N, in an airplane, and Vilhjalmur Stefans- son, the Canadian explorer, in sub- marine? Anyway, Peary says he's go- ing in an airplane and that it is just the thing. Stefansson intimates that the airplane is useless, but that the submarine looks good to him and he may go in one. In Chicago, the other day, the man who has lived in the arctic region five of the last six years had this to say about the Windy City:
 "Your Chicago atmosphere re- minds me of where came from. It is so much like the inside of an Eskimo hut. with its open fire and it's odor of fish oil." Having freed his mind con- cerning Chicago smoke, he said:
 'The wireless will not help us much in the arctic. The airplane has no uses there. But in submarine I believe 1t will be possible to penetrate hundreds of miles farther into the fro dition may be made in an undersea bo has the practical value which I belle,
