In the United States sena

In the United States sena :. t
Wednesday Senator McCumb or
talked on the ship subsidy bill
chRracterizing 1t 50 step toward
re-instating our lost prestige on
the SEAS The folks at home, the
senator's constituents, are by no
means as enthusiastic over subsi-
dizing the nation for Sl8O,000, 600
with which to encourage our COM
merce over the seas. The gain to
North Dakota from ship subsidy
will be about as great as If the
tariff on sugar is maintained at
its present figure and Cuban
sugar is kept out of the American
market. No doubt the people Of
North Dakota will profoundly ap-
preciate the efforts made by their
senator, Hon. P. j. McCumber, to
secure the passage Of the ship
subsidy bill.

with millet last year which has
proved to be very paying crop.
A gentleman came here from Iowa

bushels per acre of seed. He sold
this seed for 70 cents per bushel.
His land cost him IS per acre. A

OUT of POL small pox eases re.
ported to the health officer of Bos.
ton in December, 40, or twenty
per cent, resulted fatally. The re-
port from Boston and other eastern
cities, whore small pox epidemics
have existed for two years before
the disease became prevalent in
the Northwest, demonstrates it be-
comes more virulent the longer
endured. Atpresent the mild form
the disease has assumed in cases
treated in Cavalier county makes
it little more than a nuisance. That
vas the early history of it in
Boston and other eastern csnters,
but the longer it exists the more
serious it becomes. The present
situation, though not alarming or
serious, emphasizes the vital neses-
sity of everybody being vaecinated
who has not submitted to an in.
incubation since the disease made
10 appearance in this county.

THERE is one thing about North
Dakota lands that early impresses
those from the eastern states who
laboriously had to grub out their
farms, and that is the absence of
anything here to turn the pillow.
It's one long ribbon from quarter
section corner to corner, mile
after mile Of straight-away work
with no fence corners or division
lines to bother or delay work. In
fact the record has been made
of furrow nearly 200 miles long
without taking the pillow from the
ground.
