his deposition, and placed squarely upon
the shoulders of President Taft the re-
sponsibIity for the various utterances
he had made regarding conditions in
the far east, which have aroused the
ire of Knox for final action upon his
resignation.
Knox Announces Action
In announcing his action Knox gave
out the following statement:
The department of state has been
engaged for some time IN making
the usual study of the recent
agreements between China and
Japan in relation TO Manchuria
from such data bearing upon the
situation as / was able TO secure,
with g view 10 determining Wheth-

agreements adversely affecting
American interests or in conflict
with the principle of equal oppor-
tunities TO which the powers are
pledged; a study not yet concluded
and in respect 10 which no decision
has been reached.

Little Surprise in Tokyo

TOKYO, Oct 12-Little surprise was
expressed by officials here at the
news that Secretary of State Knox had
determined to recall Charles Crane
when he was on the eve OF sailing
as minister TO China.
Leading newspapers print long spe-
cial dispatches giving the reasons for
Cranes recall, most OF the papers TAX
ing the stand than the reported ut
terances OF Crane were exaggerated
Statements that President Taft ap-
proved Of Cranes attitude and that
the recalled minister had repeated
only what he first had heard from the
president caused much comment here
Oh1cials said that IL Crane actually
had disclosed the attitude of tht
United States government, his recall
was inevitable, but they declined t
believe. they said, that Washington
had any intention OF protesting tn,
chinese-Japanese agreement, because
they asserted, there was absolutely M
ground for such action.
Leading japanese expressed gratif-
cation at the action of Knox, since
they said, 1T indicated a determination
TO discountenance prejudiced speeche
and the unfrfendIy attitude of officials
IN dealings with Japan.

much to improve the health of our
children
Another thing which seems to me
should be given attention by school
officers is the matter Of dust in the
school room. Of course, I recognize
the fact that the use Of chalk results
in the formation of great deal OF
dust, yet the danger Of this chalk
dust can be minimized through the
use of proper erasers and proper
chalk rays. There are number OF
devices now manufactured which
will reduce very greatly the nuisance
of chalk dust. In this connection 1t
seems to me that the floors OF our
school rooms should receive atten-
ton. No school room floor ought to
20 unoiled and those schools that
are most careful about the question
Of cleanliness and sanitation, see
that their floors are frequently
scrubbed and oiled. In this way the
danger arising from the accumula-
ton of dust in the floors is minim-
lied.
There are a number Of other things
which ought to be attended to, yet
it has been my experience that the
school officers Of North Dakota are
awake to these things and whenever
it is called to their attention, they
are more than glad to act in such a
way as will bring the best results.
earnestly commend these points to
YOUR serious consideration with the
hope and expectation that action Will
result from this little appeal.

Editor Streeter of the Emmons
County Record thinks the state is big
enough to support one really first
class fair, but the people at Grand
Forks will probably take vigorous ex-
ception to his suggestion Of Fargo as
the logical location. The Record
says:
1.-THE success of the state fair at
Grand Forks this year shows that,
should the time ever come when the
members of the legislature can get
together and locate the fair at some
one, central point, instead of having
| it on wheels, North Dakota will have
a state fair that would be a credit to
states much older han this. II 1t is
possible to have fair to which
there are thirty thousand admissions
in one day, in a city off in the
northwestern part of the state
even if the presence of two great
race-horses is responsible for a good
liv share of the attendance-how
much more successful it would be
each year were it held as some point
easy of access from all sections or
the state. Either jamestown of Bis.
marck would be an ideal place as to
location. 1t is doubtful, however,
whether either of those cities Is
large enough at present to handle
the fair under the condition of rap
idly increasing population in the
state. If they are not, Fargo, the
metropolis, and the city best
equipped with hotels, is the logical
location"

Well, it is pretty good harvest
weather. anyway. That is some con-
ISOLATION to those who have been
sweltering in continued heat for a
month or so. With the exception Of
an occasional day or night, the hot
weather has continued for month.
There have been showers, it is true,
but they have brought little GOODNESS
in their wake, and the humidity re-
|sulting from unusual moisture has
added to the discomfort /of the
weather. But we have the consOla-
tion of knowing that the same condi-
lions prevail generally, and that in
other parts of the northwest the
weather is hotter than here. Harvest
weather is ordinarily hot and, dry
when it approaches the ideal stand
ard for the crop gathering season.
And all along the Missouri slope now
the crop is being cut, not only in the
day time but far into the night, for
the prudent farmer is anxious to get
his ripened grain gathered and out
[ the way. The air is noisy with the
click of the binder, and golden
sheaves are falling and being gath
cred in the wake of the reaper. The
prairie chicken is fattening in the
fields, and the lakes and sloughs are
plentifully supplied with water and
promises big harvest of wild ducks.
The earth is being plowed and grad
ed for new railroads in many places,
and in all the cities and towns of the
states there is the atmosphere of bus
mess and growth. Soon the elevat-
ors will groan to bursting with
wheat, and trains half mile long
will bear the products of the soil to
market. Let us all be patient and
thankful that the year is as it is, and
that plenty and prosperity smiles on
the land, even if the smile of the
midsummer sun is at times more
than ordinarily beaming.
