The report says that saltpeter Is a

that II cannot be guarded against by
taking the precaution to salt the sheen.
The report states that the experiments

Postpones Campaign

That the struggle of the farm
ers who have organized under the
banner of the American Society
of Equity to secure and maintain
good prices for their products,
has been postponed until next
year is the opinion of James
Holes, president of the North Da-
kota branch of the organization,
as quoted in the Fargo Forum.
The association fixed upon $1.OO.
per bushel as the price which it's
members should demand for
their wheat but the market in
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago
has already passed the dollar
mark and bids fair to climb high
er so that the farmers will secure
their price, and perhaps consid-
erably more, without any effort
on their part.
The elements have come to
our aid this year, said Mr.. Holes.
'andit will not be necessary for
the farmers to band together and
hold their wheat, but the strug-
gle will come next year. The
high price Of wheat this season
will induce many farmers to
plant an unusual quantity of the
grain next season and the re-
suit will be an immense crop. It
will be then that the strength of
the farmers organization is test
ed.
This year we have gotten
practically all we wanted without
asking for it. Every farm pro
duct is now selling above the
price which the society fixed.
Potatoes and oats are both con-
siderably above the price and if
the recent pure food legislation
which requires that barley must
be used in the making of all beer
has raised the price Of that grain
so that is now above our price.
The society does not seek to
make the price of farm products
unusually high. It's only object
is to make it high enough so the
farmers will receive a reasonable
profit. Of course, there are some

Stands Expenses.

Under the new law making each
county in the state liable for the ex-
pense Of it's own insane, there will
this year have to be a new item of levy
Of a tax to pay the charges of the
maintenance. This provision comes.
under H. B. 205, made a law with an
emergency clause and approved March
18th. The act, in addition to pro-
viding that each county pay the ex-
penses of its own insane charges,
determines the legal residence of all
such persons, how the cast of treat
ment is determined, the duty of the
state and county auditor, penalties
upon counties neglecting to make the
proper %levies, the time of payment
and that taxes for this purpose shall
not be diverted
Section5 of the new law provides
that the superintendent of the state
hospital for the insane shall furnish
each county a quarterly statement
giving the names of each patient
chargeable to the county and the cost
of maintenance of the same.-LaMoure

Shot Farmland.

The following appeared in tn Fargo
Forum, under date Valley City, June
It'll:
This morning a shooting affair oc-
Cured in the northern part of Barnes
county, about eighteen miles from this
city, which resulted in the murder of
Elmer Lewis, a farmland, by his en-
ployer, Geo. N Mcclure, at the farm
of c. M. Padgett.
It is alleged by Mcclure that Lewis
was unduly intimate with his wife and
that yesterday the matter eliminated
in a quarrel in which Lewis was dis
charged. After being driven from the
farm, Lewis went to the farm of Mr..
Padgett and stayed yer night.
This morning Mcclure took Lewis
trunk and other belongings, including
a rifle, over to the Padget farm. The
quarrel between the two men was re-
newed and resulted in Mcclure shoot
ing and instantly killing Lewis with
his own rifle.
After the shooting Mcclure went TO
Darcy and gave himself up to Deputy
Sheriff Ole Oppegard.
Mcclure came to Barnes county
from Illinois some eighteen months age
and has been a tenant on the farm Of
VIM. Reid of this city, who speaks
very highly of him as an honest, in
dustrious and sober farmer.
Lewis worked for him last summer
and was hired again this summer. l,
is said that his intimacy with Mrs
Mcclure has continued some time
Mrs. Mcclure is a rather handsome
young m and the mother Of foul
children.

FLAG DAY.

Tomorrow, Friday, jane 18th.
is Flag Day. Warren Lee Goss,
National Patriotic Inspector,
Grand Army of the Republic
sent out the following:
Friday, the 18th of June, will be the
one hundred thirtieth anniversary of
the birth of the flag Of the United
States. The flag was designed for a
nation of thirteen colonies, stretched
like a belt along the Atlantic coast,
made up of less than three millions of
people without common traditions or
languages; drawn together only by
common danger from savages within,
and oppression from without, which
threatened their existence and liberties.
That flag now waves over a great ma
ton, extending from the Gulf of
Mexica to the lakes: from the Atlantic
to beyond the Pacific Sea; and in
habited by nearly ninety millions of
people, who speak q common language.
Our flag is now-in form-the Oldest
flag of civilized nations. The resolu-
ton by Congress for the adoption of
the Stars and Stripes on June the 18th
1777, was as follows:-''Resolved that
the flag of the United States be thir-
teen stripes, alternate red and white;
that the Union be thirteen stars, white
in a blue field, representing a new con-
%stellation." The design of this flag 10
credited to George Washington, and
In part was taken from his family coat
of arms. Such is the origin of a flag
dedicated to the proposition that ''all
men are created free and equal" Let
us honor the natal day of our national
fag-displaying it from u public
buildings, schools, and homes in re-
cognition of this memorable day.
The men of the Grand Army Of the
Republic, who preserved the nation in
the greatest war Of modern times and
made vital the Declaration of our
fathers, call upon all who live under
the flag to recognize this day by
patriotic observances in schools and
-on the Sunday preceding II
churches. To this end we suggest tina
the Governor of every state by pro
olamation announce the day and pro
mote its recognition; that the press
scatter this call-as seeds of patriotism
broadcast over the land. Such re
cognition will nourish the greatness
of our nation, inculcate noble citizen
ship, the principles of civil liberty
and be an object lesson to the nev
generations that have come upon tn
stage since the Civil War.
