Eat More Candy and Crave Less
Alcoholic Stimulants

"Give children plenty of pure sugar,
taffy and butterscotch and they'll have
little need OF cod-liver OIL" says Dr..
Woods Hutchinson In the Christmas
woman's Home Companion.
I'm short, sugar is, after meat, bread
and butter, easily our next most impor-
tant and necessary food. You can put
the matter to test very easily. Just
leave off the pie, pudding or other des'
serts at your lunch or midday dinner.
You'll be astonished to find how quick
~ you'll feel empty again, and how
unfinished the meal will seem. You
can't get any working man TO accept o
dinner pail without pie in it. And he's
absolutely right. The only thing that
can take the place of sugar here Is beef
or wine. 1t is a significant fact that the
free-lunch counters run in connection
with bars furnish every imaginable
thing except sweets Even the restaur'
ants and lunch grills attached to saloons
or bars often refuse to serve desserts
of any sort. They know their business
The more sugar and sweets man
takes at meal, the less alcohol be
wants. Conversely, nearly every drink
ing man will tell you that he has LOST
his taste for sweets. The more candy
nation consumes, the less alcohol.
THE United States government buys
pme candy by the ton and ships it to
the Philippines to be sold at cost to the
soldiers in the canteens. All men
crave it in the tropics, and the more
they get of it,, the less vino anc
whisky they want.
I'm fine, the prejudice against sugar
is born of puritanism and stlnginess,
equal parts. Whatever children cry
for must be bad for them, according to
the pure doctrine of original sin; be-
sides, it costs money. l know families
in the rural districts yet where the head
of the family groans over every dollar
worth Of sugar that comes into the
house as a sinful and 'unwholesome'
luxury"

CareIessness of Farmers.

A New York commission mer-
chant, whom l know to be one of
the most reliable men in the
business, showed me an envelope
in which were checks aggregat-
ing $500, made out in blank, and
account sales for produce re-
ceived in a single month from
shippers who had neither sent
any mail advice of their ship
ments nor marked the packages
with their names and addresses.
In some cases, the names but not
the addresses were given, in
most cases neither.
Another commission merchant
received package Of butter by
express with no marks to show
the consignor. He took the tro-
uble to write the express agent
at the office from which it was
received, thinking he would know
the shipper. But the agent said
he found the tub properly marked
as far as destination was con-
cerned, on the platform when he
returned from lunch, so he sent
it on, but no one had ever ap-
peared to stand sponsor for it. -

Most Snow in Twenty Years.

Peter Ramstad drove in from
Ryder, 45 miles Saturday with a
fierce norJheaster staring him in
the face. He reports the ride
the worst that he has ever ex-
perienced and he has lived in
North Dakota twenty years. He
says that never since he has been
here, has there been as much
snow. This goes to prove a
statement made by the Indepen-
dent in a recent issue. US

nm NIL GOOD TO
SNOW SHovELERS
Presents Each Man With Fine
Lot Of Clothing Conditions
are Growing Worse Roads
Almost impossible Shortage
of Coal and Food Stuffs.

Just what was feared the most
by everyone, happened last Satur-
day when a terrific wind blew
the loose snow at a furious rate
of speed over the prairies, prac-
tically destroying all forms of
traffic. A G. N. passenger train
was stalled at Surrey, seven miles
east of this place. Farmers were
caught out on the prairies, some
with jags Of coal and provisions,
and others with empty sleds, on
their way to the mines or to the
towns for food. The condition
is alarming and while we all look
upon the predicament in the best
light possible, we cannot but
wish that conditions were
different.
Before noon Saturday Jones'
coal office was out of commission,
every bit Of wood and coal having
been sold.
Two cars of kerosene oil ar
rived Friday and relieved the
oil famine which has been causing
a good deal of inconvenience.
Some of the stores are having a
hard time getting food stuffs.
Well grin and bear it as long as
pan. cakes and coffee last, but
when it comes to snow balls for
desert, we'll kick. Minot is far
ing perhaps better than the other
cities in this part Of the state.
We will all have cause to remem-
Der the winter of 1906-07.
The railroads have about the
greatest cause for complaint and
the independent must say that
both the 500 and the G. N. are
handling the situation to the best
of their ability.
The great amount of snow fall
has filled in the cuts time and
again and heretofore the rotary
snow plows have been able to
cope with the situation. Now
the banks on either side of the
track are so high that the rotary
no longer throws the snow free
from the track and hundreds of
shovelers have to accompany the
rotary and assist in clearing away
the snow. The Great Northern
has been very considerate with
it's snow shovelers and employees
in general. Louis Hill who has
been in this state doing what he
can to keep the tracks open, or
dered last week several hundreds
of large fur caps with capes,
sheep lined duck coats, overshoes
and German socks, and good
warm mittens. These were given
to the shovelers without a cent
Of charge, but on condition that
the articles are to be returned to
the railroad company when the
shovelers have finished with
them. The engine men have been
given slickers to wear over their
clothing.

$500 for Ignite.

Ignite coal is so scarce in

Coal has sold there regularly all,

WORKING FOR
BETTER SCHOOL Law.
Some Changes Which Would As.
sist the Schools of Ward and
Adjacent Counties Some
Schools Consolidate.

Twenty of the newly elected
superintendents of the state at
tended the state meeting at Far
go last month. The superinten-
dents drafted resolutions recon-
mending a third Normal school
in the western part OF the state
and advising some change in tt e
law, whereby county and state
superin tendents are removed as
far as possible from political in
huences. A committee Of three
was appointed to work with the
Association committee to secul e
some such law and amendments
as seem advisable for the better
ing OF conditions ia the rural
schools. Those committees will
spend some time at Bismarck
during the legislative period for
the purpose OF reviewing and re-
vising school laws. Many of the
representatives and senators
turnout the state have promised
their support to the measures
that will assist the superintend-
ents in improving the quality Of
the instruction and the practic-
ability of the various courses.
The legislators from our own
district will be right on all pro-
positions tending towards the
improvement of conditions in
Ward county.
A district with a valuation lees
than $4,000 can hardly afford
to consolidate it's schools. Supt.
Warren will go to Bismarck to
try to get state aid for such dis
tricts.
We are in favor OF a change in
the new apportionment law by
which children living ~ miles
from school, may be counted as
attending 60 days whether they
have done so or not. This year
Ward county will lose the ap-
portionment on 5000 children
owing to the severe winter. and
this means a loss Of $4,000 to
the districts in Ward county.
The Flaxton school is again
open after being closed on &C.
count OF diphtheria.
About 100 pupils OF the county
schools took the eighth grade
completion examination the last
time.
The force in the county super
inrendent's office will remain the
same during the next two years.
A. M. WaUar is the deputy and
Miss Gertrude Holcomb, clerk.
A number OF the rural schools
of the county closed on account
OF bad weather and fuel shortage.
Teachers associations for the
for the four association districts
of Ward county will soon be
called at which time officers for
the ensuing year will he elected.
Petitions are being circulated
il Districts 126 and 1913 for new
school houses.
A petition has been filed in the.
superintendent office for the
division Of the four rem aiming
townships in Norman dist. No. 3.
j. r. Vail, the Mohali teacher
has resigned and Mr.. Rockney, a
University student succeeds him.
The tax payers in District 33,
voted to consolidate and erect q
Central school. The building
may be ready for the spring
term.
