that Williams county is in the dry
belt is incorrect. Farmers who have
lived there for twelve years say they
never had a failure of crops.
1t is with great pleasure that we are
able to announce the establishment of
another bank in Crary. It is an evil
dence of the growth and prosperity of
the community. We are glad to see
our town come forward with new and
worthy enterprises. Banks are one of
the e which assist in commercial
progress, and are as much a necessity
as mercantile establishments. The
promoters of the new institution are
j. H. Smith, J. S. Kirk and H. A.
Nicholson, of Crary, and A. o.
Whipple and H. E. Baird, of Devils
Lake. No doubt the new institution
will merit a share of the patronage
of the general public.
Making a ten-mile drive Saturday
forenoon in the country lying north
of Crazy, the reporter made the fol-
lowing observations: That the late
rains have greatly enhanced the crop
yield in this part of the county; that
the amount of building in the way of
farm residences and barns is greater
this season than any previous one;
that the following were a few Of the
farmers who are improving their pro-
perty: John LeDuc, new residences;
John Stevenson, new barn; Julius
Anderson, addition to residence;
Mike Rutten, new residence; Peter
Dahl, new house; Thomas Lennon,
new foundation for house; Carl AS
lund, new house; D. G. Mcleod, new
residence; William Nix, new founda-
tion for large barn; that the farmers
at the present time are busy putting
up hay; that the hay crop this year is
good, where there is not too much
water in the meadows; that there are
many fields of fax which look yellow
with mustard in bloom; that unless
farmers are more particular in using
clean seed, and keeping their fields
free of noxious weeds, the farms will
in a few years become foul with grass
and depreciate in value; that the oats,
barley and wheat crops this year are
! better than in many years past; that
the raising of fax is a temporary oc-
cupation; and that old ground will
not continue to yield good returns
that the crop is very uneven, some
farms showing a handsome prospect,
while others will yield but scanty re-
turns. All of which tends to show
that more depends upon the farmer
than upon the farm.

FACES SERVANT PROBLEM.
Troubles of Its own I'm Its Elk
detrimental BOARDING House.

DR.. Harvey Wiley, chemist for the
agricultural department, announced
the other day that he has finally Sc
cured sufficient number of free
boarders for his pure food tests, but a
still graver trouble confronts him.
He Is now in grief over the servant
problem, and only by sending all the
way to Texas could he get a cook with
sufficient recommendation from the
civil service commission to satisfy
him. Such u cook has been engaged
and is now en- route Tor Washington.

IS PUSHED AHEAD.
Official Dinner to the Cabinet In
December Instead of January.

1t has been announced to members
of the cabinet that December 1S was
the date fixed by the president and
Mrs. Roosevelt for the cabinet dinner.
The place where the dinner Is to be
given was not mentioned, but 1t is sup
posed by this that the president ex-
poets to have full possession of the
white house by that date, and will
christensthe state dining room with
the cabinet dinner.
This is the first time in many years,
If it ever happened before, that a cab
met or other state dinner was given
in December, January being the month
fixed for the great official functions at
the white house, which really open the
social season.
Mrs. Roosevelt's reason for thus
early commencing the state dinners is
that she may have more time in the Sin
weeks between the New Years recep-
ton and Lent for other entertain
ments.

SCENERY IN WASHINGTON.

still little known to the country at
large, but in the estimation Of some its
scenery compares favorably with that

r. A. Farmer topographer in charge,
has recently made a report of the gov
eminent topographic work OF the sea

fculty was experienced penetrating
the country on account Of its extreme

ILLITERACY AMONG CHILDREN
shown to be Greater win the N~'i""
Born Than with Those OK
immigrants.

The census office has issued state
ment giving a compilation Of figures
regarding illiteracy among chiiareh
of immigrants and children OF natives
The statement says;
"Confining the comparison to chill
dren between the ages OF III ana IN
years in the United States as whole
05.6 per cent. of the native white chill
dren of native parents and 9o'l per
cent. of the native white children OF
foreign born parents are able to reao
and write. This surprising difference
ia favor Of the children of the foreign
born population is due largely to the
fact that the children of the foreign
born immigrants live mainly in the
northern and western states, where
the public school systems have al
ready reached high degree of eff
cheney, while great numbers OF native
white children of native parents live
in the southern states, and in that re-
gion about ten per cent. of such chill
dren are illiterate.
when the comparison is carried out
by geographic divisions the difference
between the two classes in each part
of the United STATES, except the south
Atlantic states, is found to be much
less than in the whole country. Yet
these figures indicate that in every
region except the north Atlantic
states the litegate children of immi-
grant whites are a larger per cent. of
the whole number of such children
than the literate children of native
whites are of all children of native
whites.
This is partly explained by the
clustering of immigrants and their
children mainly in the cities and towns,
while the native white children of ma
tive parents live more generally in
the rural districts"

TO FOSTER LoHSTERS.
ErcctiOn of Hatcheries on
Eastern Coast.

Hon. James Sutherland, minister
of marine and fisheries of the do
minion government, has in various
ways shown his desire to promote the
great lobster fishing industry on the
eastern shores of Canada, and his lat
est act, that of sanctioning the erec-
tion of three new lobster hatcheries
in the gulf of St. Lawrence will be
hailed with satisfaction throughout
the maritime provinces. The new
hatcheries will be located at Shippe-
gan island, Shemogue harbor and Lob
ster Point, P. E. L., respectively. That
at Shippegan island will be in the very
center of the lobster canneries OF
northern New Brunswick. and will
draw its supplies of lobster spawn
from the cannerie. along the Bale des
Chaleur, especially Gloucester county,
and from the straits of Northumber-
land as far as the southern limits of
Kent county.
The hatchery at the entrance to
Shemogue harbor will be midway be-
tween the fiourishing canneries Of the
Shediac and Cape Tormentine dis
tricts. Lobster Point, where the third
hatchery Is to be stablished, is few
miles from Charlottetown, and mid
way between the canneries east and
west of Hillsborough bay. The min
lister has decided that the Matching
plant shall be of an improved type,
capable in the case of each hatchery Of
turning out at least 100,000,0O0 of
young Holsters per annum. Few peo-
pie are aware of the Importance of the
lobster fishery, which runs the cod and
salmon close race for premier place
in the fishing industries of the domin-
ion. Each of these industries has an
annual value of between SO, 000, 900 and
100000, far exceeding the mackerel
and herring fisheries, which reach an
annual output of only between $1,000.

OBJECTIONABLE HAT CHECKS.
Railway Passengers Oppose the Cas-
tom of Sticking Railway Checks
i'm Their Headsear.

Railway passengers, more ana
more, are opposing the custom OF
the conductor who marks them by
sticking a strip of cardboard in the
band of the hat.
There are at least two reasons for
this opposition, says the Chicago
Tribune. One of them is that con-
ductors do not always remove them,
and after he leaves the train pas
senger goes from place TO place
wearing a blue, red, or green check
in his hat. Pedestrians stare at
him, and, looking about his person
for the cause, he finally discovers
that he is decorated. The man who
wears one of these markers is by
common consent set down as a hay
seed, and this feeling has spread un-
til few know the extent of it.
Hatters say, and the observing
man soon finds out for himself, that
the repeated sticking of cardboard
in the band of stiff hat loosens the
band and gives the hat-no matter
how much it has costa cheap APP
pearance. When the busy conductor
desires to sniff some of his duties
he sets the brakeman to pulling
checks. Sometimes he yanks them
out any old way, oftentimes dis
pleasing TO the passenger. The con
ductor himself is not always gentle
in "chucking" check. He leaves
them sticking at all angles. Some
times he has checks of as many as
three colors, and when he finishes up
a car Of men their head gear often
times resembles that of a fighting
Indian.
Many Of the railroad managers
have come to recognize this custom
OF the conductor as an imposition
that he has no right TO use the per-
son of a passenger TO mark him.
For that reason Chicago roads, many
Of them. have provided brass hold
ers, screwed on the side of tho car,
one 10 each seat, and the conductor
Is expected TO use this contrivance
in checking a passenger.
Some of the conductors have volun-
tarily abandoned the obnoxious Gus
tom and have adopted different
schemes Of their own in placing n
check about a scat where II will
show that the passenger Is ticketed
TO a particular destination.
Conductors have always managed
10 check women passengers without
attaching anything TO them, and it Is
argued that the men folk may be
similarly treated.

THE MOTHER OF KINGS.
Elizabeth Of Ito h emia Wauthe Ances-
tress of Many of EurOpe's
Royal Rulers.

On August 10 in 1896 was born a lit
tie princess, Elizabeth, whom Fate des-
tined TO be the foundreSs Of our reign
ing dynasty as her younger brother,
the ill-starred Charles l., was 10 be
the ancestor Of the elder branch Of
Stuart. From either the brother or
the sister every living member OF
every reigning family il descended.
II is a little remarkable that James
l., the only child OF an only child Of
an only child, is the ancestor OF every
prineely parsonage in Europe, as well
as Of many others, says the London
News.
Elizabeth, who was named after our
queen Of spacious times" was deeply
attached to Henry, the eldest son Of
James l., who died in his fathers life
time She married in 1913 the Palgraye
OF the Rhine, who afterward became
the winter king Of Bohemia and, after
much suffering, died in 1852, Just as
Gustavus Adolphus Of Sweden, who
had been a claimant for Elizabeth's
hand was triumphing. The widowed
queen lived on poor allowances from
England Holland or the Rhine states
until she returned 10 England after
the restoration Of her nephew, Charles
II. She then resided In Lord Crayen's
house in Drury lane, where she died in
1862.
We cannot now measure what the
charms and wit were which gained for
her the name Of Queen Of Heart" and
the admiration OF all who knew her.
She was not clever. She was not on

ENGLISH PEOPLE SQUIRM.
Much Concern Felt in Great Brftadn
Over the Increased Cost of
Living.

Much concern is felt in England
about the increased cost of living
and the failure of wages to increase
in proportion. Consul Halsted, at
Birmingham, has forwarded to the
department of state an editorial
from one of the leading English
newspapers, which says:
1T is becoming exceedingly difficult
for the housewife of the working
man to make ends meet. Year by
year the price of provisions seems to
advance without a corresponding in
crease in her husbands wages, with
the natural result that the luxuries
she can buy for her family's con-
sumption become fewer and fewer,
all her ingenuity being taxed to exc
out her allowance ON the bare neces-
saries of life.
Nor is it only the extremely poor
who feel the pinch. The advances Of
recent years have been so consider
able that they have been felt by
many families in better circum-
stances. Hee
This season, for various reasons,
another twist of the screw is being
applied, and the already dismayed
housewife will have to face the fact
that provisions will be from ten to
20 per cent. dearer than they were
year ago."
