OLD.TIME SPELLING.
Specimen of Martha WashIngton's
 Orthoqraphy Resurrected.

Roswell Field in the Chicago Journal.
 But if George did not grievously err in the matter of spelling, as much cannot be said for Martha, whose words and sen- tences were fearfully and wonderfully made One illustration will be sufficient. The letter was written while the good Martha was with her husband at the seat of government in Philadelphia, and was addressed to her sister at Mount Vernon. After regretting the illness of the little ones at Mount Vernon, who were suffer- ing from an ailment common among chill dren and puppies Martha went on to say:

FOOD NECESSITIES
 OF AVERAGE MAN
HE MUST CONSUME EACH DAY 116 GRAMS OF PROTElD NATTER MEAT A LARGE PART OF THE DIET.

Accepting the daily dietary standards
 previously enumerated, and which are
 based upon observations as to what peo-
 pie are accustomed to consume, 1t is
 plain, says Russell H. Crittenden in the
 October Century, that the average man
 doing from light to moderate muscular
 work must take each day approximately
 116 grams of proteid matter QS grams of
 nitrogen), with sufficient fat and carbo-
 hydrate to yield a total fuel value of
 3,050 large calories.
 The usual proportion of carbohydrate
 (mostly starchy food) is about 300 grams
 to 50 to 60 grams of fat In other words, the average man needs, according to the
 above hypothesis, approximately 120
 grams of proteid, 300 grams of carbohy-
 drate and 60 grains of fat for his daily
 ration
 In order to obtain these amounts of nutrients he would require per day three-fourths of pound of ordinary roast beef, one pound of boiled potato
 one-half pound of white bread and one- fourth pound of butter
 Naturally, must greater variety of food might be adopted with the same nutri- tive values as the above, but these fig
 ures will suffice to give some impression of the quantities of ordinary cooked foodstuffs required to yield the nitrogen
 and the total fuel value called for by the
 above standard dietary.
 A more elaborate diet, one in large measure free from meat and having es- sentially the same content of nitrogen, and with total fuel value of approxi- mately 5000 calories, would be as fol- lows: Fried hominy, six ounces; srup three ounces; baked potato, eight ounces butter, one and one-half ounces; baked to ounces boiled turnip, six ounces; bread, two ounces; apple sauce, eight ounces; apple tapioca pudding, twelve ounces; fried sweet potato. eight ounces; fried bacon, one ounce; fruit jam. four ounces; coffee one and one-half pints, and tea, three-fourths of a pint.
 Such a diet, owing to It's vegetable na- ture and lack of concentration, Is natu- rally quite volumnous. A greater con- centration of diet Is easily obtained by replacement of portion of the vegetable
 matter by meat; and this the ordinary man. with his highly developed palate,
 usually prefers to do. because of the in creased flavor which his acquired taste now calls for.
 Further the resources at the command | of the civilized man render possible great | variety in matters of diet; but whatever | the character of the daily food, or how 1 ever great the number and variety of the | nitrogen content and fuel value of the
 daily food of mankind will in general | correspond usually adoptel throughout | the civilized world.

FFICIAL PAPER OF THE COUNTY AND
THE CITY OF DEVILS LAKE,
500 OR FARMERS, WHICH?

The building of the 500 rail
road from the south, and it's ex-
tension northward would mean
much to this city, and were it
not for the conflict with the in
terests of the Farmers road.
would be welcomed by our PEG.
pie. But so long'as the interests
of these two clash, SO long must
the sympathy of our people be
with the Farmers. There would
seem to be but one way to over
come the difficulty and that is
for the 500 to purchase the
Farmers road. While many
would regret to see the only rail
road in the world owned and
successfully operated by farm
ers pass out of their hands, bust
ness interests might induce them
to sell their holdings to larger
system. They have secured the
original purpose for which the
scheme was planned-a railroad
into the heart of one Of the rich
est portions of North Dakota,
and having done this. and prov
ed that the agriculturalist can
stepfrom the pillow to the counting
room of a railroad and make it a
success, they can dispose of their
property with credit, and at "a
price far in advance of the orig
inal cost.
On the other hand, if the 500
does not build, the men interest
ed in:the Farmers road are fully
able to extend that line itself UNI
til it becomes an important fac
tor in North Dakota railroads.
This is being proven by the fact
that at the present time the line
is being extended into splendid
territory, and the fact that they
have gotten in upon the ground
floor has possibly stirred up the
rival roads to make a fight for
the ground captured by the Farm
ers. In either event this city
must become an important rail-
road center and the business peo-
;ple should give the cause a help
ing hand s..

Minneapolis

The Minneapolis Journal
points approvingly to the efforts
of Senator Hansbrorgh in main
tanning the rights Of the North
Dakota grain-growers under the
tariff law, and says that he is
correctly representing his state,
the chief industry Of which is
wheat raising. In point Of fact,
the senator, by his course with
respect to the drawback .ques-
ton, is sustaining the just rights
and interests Of every farmer in
the United States. If he is cor
rect in his view that Sec. Shaw's
free wheat decision means
lower prices for domestic wheat,
then there can be. no sort Of
doubt that the grain-growing in
dustry of the whole country is
involved. In this case the tariff
is not a local issue.

AZ PRACTICAL PROOF.

One Of the most practical de-
monstrations of the value Of adj
vertising was made in a small
town in this state a short time
ago. Two mercantile firms
changed in the town about the
same time, one Of the new firms
being in business ina nearby
town, where they did strong and
persistent advertising. They
adopted the same methods in
their new location, an the local
papers carried a larger ad for
the firm than for all the others
combined. The other firm be-
lieved in conservatism, and car
ried no ad. A few weeks ago,
the advertising firm had their
opening and advertised some
special bargains, and on the
opening day, though a very busy
time, the store did an enormous
business. The other firm became.
indignant, declared it was not
fair to give goods away to get,

put them in direct competition
with Canadian flour made from

ally furnishing some suggestive
facts on side issues. Lucius
futile, president of the Boston
and Maine road, was before the
committee for three days. His
statement is considered to be the
most exhaustive exposition of
practical railway operation ever
made. The following extract
from his remarks will be of deep
interest here as. bearing upon
another question much discussed
of late. Speaking of the work
ings Of the long and short haul
system, and explaining why low
rates are made on-long distance
traffic, he said:
can give you an illustra-
ton of that in regard to a
matter | had occasion to look
up within a few months.
Wheat exports from the
United States to Europe
very materially decreased,
and after a time practically
ceased. / found that Cana
da was sending wheat to
Europe in large quantities.
The price Of wheat in st.
Paul tor milling was about
SLIPS bushel; the price in
Liverpool and London was
$l.25 a bushel; therefore
there was nothing for the
transportation between the
wheat fields and Liverpool.
But Canadian wheat was
selling at 81 a bushel, our
tariff on Canadian wheat
being just Is cents. That
Is cents moved Canadian
wheat to Liverpool in great
quantities. Wheat from
Manitoba was selling at ST. a
bushel in Minneapolis and
st. Paul for milling pur-
poses. The tariff on Cana
dian wheat in the United
States was, as I..say, 25 cents
a bushe]. Therefore our
price in Minneapolis fixed
the price in Canada, and at
81 a bushel they could send
it to Liverpool just as we'll
as they could send it to. the
United States, because rs
cents a bushel, or about "a.
would move it from Mani
toba to Liverpool.
No doubt Mr.. futile felt that,
owing to the conditions he des
cribes, his road was not getting
its share of wheat and flour
shipments. Whether he favored
the. Shaw drawback decision or
not may be immaterial. 1t is
enough to know that the Ameri-
can transportation lines gener-
ally did favor it. The American
millers also favored it. Now,
Mr.. futile, in other parts of his
staten ent, said there was no
money for the railroads in the
long haul, and Secretary Shaw
has said that the poor miller was
glad to make five cents Il barrel
on export -four. Who then is
benefited by the free wheat de
cision? No one, it seems, unless
it is the foreign consumer.
Who is injured by it," asks
Secretary Shaw. Clearly the
