M. Gile) On account of the present high prices of all foodstuffs and the probable continued high prices until the close of the war, every available square foot of soil should be made to produce something. It is not only a patriotic duty for each individual owner of a farm or a city lot to do this for it will be profitable and also a pleasure. Those of us who are in close touch with the agricultural industry in our vicinity know that the farmers will plant and take good care of a much larger acreage than has ever been done be- fore. Through discussing the situation with school children in the grades of the City of Bemidji, nearly one-half the enrollment in Beltrami county is found, their interest has been aroused and there will be few unproduc- tive vacant lots the coming season in the city of Bemidji. Tomato seeds enough to grow three acres of tomatoes have been distributed in Bemidji and the surrounding schools and there are still seeds for those who will call for them. A resident of Bemidji recently told the writer that in a certain Towa town $1,800 has been donated by public spirited citizens to offer in prizes to the school children as an incentive to greater production. Donations for this purpose have never been asked of ‘the citizens of Bemidji, but if we had one hundred dollars for this purpose at present we could get prac- tically every child from the third grade and up to care for a small garden plot, even though the little fellows might not have a space more than eight feet square. Francis Rhea, a hoy in the sixth grade, recently said that he saved $25 last summer and most of it he received by selling vegetables from his garden at the High School Farm. His garden was 20 by 50 feet. Francis says he is saving money to go to college. Many of the boys and girls in the potato contest conducted by the Agricultural Department of the Be- midji schools last year raised over forty bushels of potatoes on an eighth of an acre. John Stillwell raised 55 bushels. They received from $40 to $100 for their potatoes, depending upon the price at the time of selling. The time has not expired as yet for the enrollment in the various con- tests and garden projects supervised by the Agricultural Department for the coming season. MISTAKES When a plumber makes a mistake, he charges twice for it. When a lawyer makes a mistake, it's just what he wanted, because he has a chance to try the case all over again. When a carpenter makes a mistake, it’s just what he expected, be- cause the chances are 10 to 1 he never learned his business. When an electrician makes a mistake, he blames it on “induction,” because nobody knows what that is. When a doctor makes a mistake, he buries it. When a judge makes a mistake, it becomes the law of the land. When a preacher makes a mistake, nobody knows the difference. When a printer makes a mistake, everybody knows it, and he’s lucky, he is allowed to print the job over and charge the cost up to profit and loss. Don’t you envy the ‘“‘lucky’ printer? —Sessions Printing Co., Sioux Falls, S. D. In 1898 the United States freed Cuba from the rule of Spain. Today, when we are at war with Germany, Cuba comes right to the front with an offer of her entire army of 25,000 officers and men, to be employed in any manner this government may desire. There is gratitude for you, and our hat is off. We have a faint recollection of a well meaning citizen, not so long ago, remarking something about trying to bring harmony in certain af- fairs in Bemidji. Good idea, fine sentiment, but how in hades can any one harmonize with a rattlesnake? We rise to inquire, What would be more attractive in the front yard than a growing bed of lettuce or onions, or tomatoes or beets, or any one of a dozen articles of food? It would be such a symbol of patriotism as the world has never before seen. And the odd moments would do it. We are not worrving in the least ahout those German submarines for we are going to feel quite safe in Lake Bemidji this summer. We admit we would be a little apprehensive over a German submarine but if a Ger- man schooner should happen near us—Ho, Hum! Bling pigging in Bemidji is getting to be a fine business, with the ac- cent on the ““fine.” They collected $1,000 the other day.—Baudette Region. Carranza assures us of his neutrality—which, being correctly inter- preted, means the old cuss is plotting mischief again. Encouraging? Since the advent of war there have been a number of sudden conversions in Bemidji. Governor Burnquist is about as popular as a case of German measles in this section.—Baudette Région. You can’t play both ends against the middle and get away with it. Not that anybody knows of. D.D. D. Cured Clergyman and Banker Also Write H. G.
