be made to get an agreemnet on these
five grades of wheat.
The first Of the refusals was Of the
demand of the Chicago grain men to
raise the test weigh of No. 2 white
winter wheat from 56 to 81 pounds.
Another denial was of the demand
that No. 2, 3 and hard winter wheat
may contain a maximum of rs per

The national convention refused to
raise the test weight of NO. / hard
spring wheat from So to SO pounds,
and No northern spring wheat
from 81 to 571z mounds.
The convention indicated that it
would grant an additional one pound
to the tes weights of velvet chan

to the demands of the Chicago men to
raise the weight test approximately

MANY MARRIAGES FOUND VOID.

1t has just been discovered that
large number of marriages performed
in North Dakota ar null and void un-
der the present marriage law. This
has been found TO be particularly true
in Western North Dakota where a
great many matrimonially inclined
have in the past hied themselves to
Dickinson, procured license, had the
ceremony performed and returned
home.
The statutes require that one of the
parties to lie married must reside in
the county where the license sissued
and the ceremony must also be per.
formed in the same county. Senator
Simpson of Stark county will intro.
duce a bill, which if allowed to be.
come a law, will legalize all marriages
which have been made not in accor.
ance with the present law.

food, especially milk, should be- KEEP,
carefully from all access Of flies.
Water. which is the great carrier Of
typhoid. may be rendered perfectly
safe as far as disease-producing pos
sibilities are concerned, by boiling
The time Of boiling does not need tc
be long. If it is brought merely to
the boiling point, and then taken of
from the stove and allowed to COO
it will be rendered safe. Such water
will taste "flat," but the taste can be
improved by pouring it from dippe,
to dtpper two or three times, so thai
it may be exposed to the air and re.
dissolve that which has been boiled
out. If a cistern is suspected of con
tamination by typhoid fever it can be
rendered safe by treatment with cop
per sulphate, which is the same as
blue vitriol. or bluestone. Such treat
ment should never be greater thar
one part of copper sulphate to one
million parts of water (by weight)
and in fact this method of treatment
should not be used without expert ad
vice. Milk may be rendered safe If it
is suspected of contamination by heat
ing to point just below that of scald.
ing for space of about ten or fifteen
minutes. This is what is known as
pasteurizing milk, and is used in q
number of large cities.
All of these methods of prevention,
should be understood by every farm.
er and citizen, and should be used
wherever it is deemed advisable. The
number of deaths from typhoid fever
in the United States during the last
year was something over thirty.five
thousand, and about Is per cent OF
these could have been prevented by
the use of proper precautions. In
combating a run of fever or epidemic
of such we should remember that
after all the best possible methods OF
prevention lie in absolute cleanliness
and the use of common sense in SAM
tation.

mcvev CONSIDERS OFFER.

DR.. Franklin L. McVey of Mime
apolis, chairman of the Minnesota tax
commission, was elected president of
the University Of North Dakota at a
meeting of the regents in Grand
Forks. He has the offer under con-
sideration, and will make his decision
in few days.
Il have not decided what to do
said DR.. McVey when seen at the
capitol in st. Paul. Il am going up
again to speak on taxation before the
North Dakota legislature at Bismarck
Friday. l will investigate the propo-
sition further at that time. That is
all I can say at present"
DR.. Webster Merrif1eld. the retiring
president, is understood to have made
small fortune through an interest
in a proprietary food concern, and is
retiring to devote his time to bust
ness. His salary has been $4,000 a
year, but the regents have decided
to raise it If they can get the right
man. It is thought their offer is &c.
900 a year.
DR.. McVey's term on the tax com
mission expires in May, but Gov.
johnson has announced that he will
reappoint him for a six-year term.
The tax commissioners receive $4,000
year. Even if DR.. McVey goes to
North Dakota, it is understood that
he will remain until July and help to
finish work the commission now has
1. under way.
DR.. McVey is thirty-eight years old,
native of Des Moines, Iowa, and a
graduate of Ohio Wesleyan. He has
the doctor of philosophy degree from
Yale. He was a member of the Uni
versity of Minnesota faculty for elev-
en- years, retiring as professor of eco
nomics to accept the state appoint
ment.
The impression at the capitol in ST.
Paul is that he will accept the North
Dakota offer. Gov. Johnson expressed
his regret at the prospect.
The offer by North Dakota has eli
cited unqualified approval from friends
of DR.. McVey among the Minnesota
faculty.
President Cyrus Northrop said: "Ot
course, no one knows whether DR..
McVey will accept the presidency, for
he has just received his reappoint-
ment to the Minnesota state tax COM
mission, but the fact that he has been
in conference with the board of re-
gents of the North Dakota university
would lead me to believe that he will
take the offer. He is eminently fitted
for the position"
Prof. C. D. Allin of the department
of political science and economics
and a close friend Of DR.. McVey said:
THE rare combination of academic
training and executive ability pos
sessed by DR.. McVey make him we'll
qualified for the presidency of the
University of North Dakota"

FUNDS IN JEOPARDY.
North Dakota May Have to Refund
Counties $4,000.

Counties @loV,VOV.
\ decision is expected from the SUI
preme court in day or two so that
will have a considerable effect upon
the revenues of the state and will eff.
feet the appropriations that can be
made by the legislature to the extent
of about quarter of a million of dol
lars. The case is that involving the
law passed two years ago requiring
counties to pay 500 annually for the
care of insane patients at the state
hospital and imbeciles at the state
school for feeble minded. Several of
the counties have refused to pay the
charge, and the whole sum that has
been paid in is something like $780,.
600.
If the decision goes against the state
a good share of this sum will have to
be refunded, and the state will in adj
dition have to find revenus to com.
pensate for this failure of revenue to
the state hospital. The decision is
awaited with great interest by repre-.
sentatives of state institutions whose
appropriations will depend to some ex.
tent upon the outcome of the case.
