BUSINESS is BOOMING
Robert Jones Returns From Trip to
the East and Reports That Money
Is Tight All Over the Country.

Money is tight and rates of interest
are high all over the country. accord
ing to Robert Jones, president of the
First National bank, who has just re-
turned from three weeks business
trip to New York and Montreal Mr..
Jones said that Judging from what he
had learned during his trip this was
largely due to the immense amount of
business which Is being done every
where, and the vast number of linz
.provements which are being made.
1T is the same in New York and In
Canada as in the northwest said Mr..
Jones. "The importers cannot import
enough goods to supply the demand.
1t seems to be impossible to get
enough of anything, money included,
Everywhere business is booming.
Mr.. Jones stated that the value of
the jewels which Mrs. ones left in the
sleeping car on the night Of their arr
rival in Minneapolis was nothing like
$4,000. He said he did not know just
what their value was, but they were
glad to recover them SO promptly.

GLOVER CROP.
Red River Valley Well Adapted to the
Growth Of the Plant.

Mayville Tribune: superintendent
Hilstad of the Smith farm came. up
from Blanchard Monday and took
Tuesday forenoon's train for North
wood. Speaking with Mr. Iilstad
about the clover crop on the. Smith
farm, he informed us that the farm
win put 200 acres more into clover this
year, which with the $50 acres they
had in last year will make a total of
$50 acres of clover. Last year he
cropped their clover field about the
first of July, then harvested crop Of
hay from the same land, and in the
fall gathered in second crop Of
clover, getting the seed from the last
crop. The live stock on the farm
cattle, horses hogs and sheep--are fed
on clover and thrive on it. Glover is
excellent for the good health of the
land, it being said that a clover crop
is equal to summer following in its
beneficent effect upon the soil.
AS to whether clover is adapted to
the soil of the Red River valley, the
experience of the Smith farm COM
clusively proves the affirmative A
Mayyille man who undertook to drive
through a part of a clover field on the
Smith farm with team and buggy
says he was compelled to get out and
lead his horses back, the growth of
clover being so thick and heavy that
the horses could not get through it.
He took up a sample and it measured
nearly feet in length.

profession than he is of belonging to
the nobility. He says In Syria women
prefer brains to titles and he suggests
That 1t might be wise IL the American
women would for an example to their
eastern sisters, whose standards he
considers much more worthy. He thinks

the fashions of the Syrian women. They
have no wrinkles, he says, they have
no worries. They spend their days In
accordance to the old adage, Laugh
and grow fat"
'tiFntness is a mark of beauty" Dr..
TeWfk says. and the most beautiful
face is that which Is round and full like
the moon when she Is In her glory. In
America the women are forever steam

ing all kinds Of asrobatic stunts to get
rid Of a few pounds when If they only
knew II every one they lose they are
parting with just that amount of
beauty. In Syria we think every wom-

If a woman has a dollar left the day

When a farmer comes to town on a

After a woman reaches 40. her hats

APPLES PROPAGATE MOTHS.
Germans Give Warnings Against Keep
the Fruit in DWELLINGS.

Germany has found a peril in apples.
They are the principal medium for the
propagation and spread Of the destructive
house moth (Glycyphagus domest.cus) &C
cordIng to observations recently made.
The discovery was the result Of a plague
of moths at Cries and the villages sur
rounding it. The larvae were traced to.
the stores OF apples kept In the houses and
thence to the trees themselves.
The larvae are found first Of all in the
apple blossoms. AS the fruit grows they
cluster In the conical depression about the
stem of the apple.
When the fruit is taken into theh house 1t
Is laden with the eggs. The propagation
Of the eggs is said to be ~prodigious.
When the fruit Is taken into the house
the eggs find their way into clothing,
hangings, carpets and upholstered furnl-
ture and the insect is Matched out, with
the well known ru.nous results. The eggs
are also said to be the cause Of the white
nothing that is so often noticed on dried
fruit.
AS a result OF the discoveries 1t is urged
that apples never be taken into dwellings
without careful cleansing, and even then
they should never be kept in living rooms,
and the Feelings should be promptly re-
moved.

New System of Making Wine.
From tho C~nnsO1ar

Wine germs, which make it possible
to duplicate the famous wines Of Bor-
6eaux, Burgundy or the Rhine, are
among the latest experiments Of sci
cntists. The germs are obtained from
the dregs of casks which have con-
tanned genuine old wine. and those
for each particular brand are placed
for safekeeping in a substance pre-
pared from Japanese isinglass n
fruit juice. In the jelly-like mass the
germs soon establish a colony. When
needed. sufficient germs may be placed
in a tube of steriiized fruit juice. At
ter two or three days the juice will be
in full fermentation with plentiful eff
tervescence. This process is said to
ilnpart to the wine the exact bouquet
and charan teristics of the wine from
which the germs originally came.

NERVOUS HEADACHES

Every Sufferer.

Nobody who has not endured the
suffering caused by nervous head.
ache can realize the awful agony Of
it's victims. Worst of all, the ordin.
ary treatment cannot be relied upon
to cure nor even to give relief. Some
doctors will say that IT a person ID
subject to these headaches there il
nothing that can be done to prevent
their recurrence.
Nervous headaches, as we'll AZ neu-
ralgia, are caused by lack Of nutrition
tho nerves are starved. The only
way to feed the nerves Is through the
blood and 1t is in this way that DR..
williams Pink Pills have accom-
plished SO many remarkable cures
Mrs. Addie Merrill, OF 80 Union

years I suffered from nervous mead
aches, which would come on me every
five or six weeks and continue for
several days. The pain was SO severe
that I would be obliged to go to bed
for three or four days each time. II
vas particularly intense ove my right
eye. l tried medicines but got no re-
lief. I had no appetite and when
the headache passed away I felt as II
1 had been sick for a month. My
blood was thin and l was pale. weak
and reduced In weight.
II read about Dr.. Williams Pink
Pills in a paper and decided to try
them. I first noticed that they be.
