Ms sE2c,s@UL IN his article OF
us wess struck the keynote
.hen IL speaking Of the pOssioil-
liies of q raise Of The school levy
b. sa'd that It WAS ZAP to the peo~
pie. The Board Of Supervisors
represent the people and should
they receive sufficient proof shat
a majority of the citizens desire
this RAISE. as faithful Representa-
tives they could do nothing but
give it to US.
If therefore when the time for
the Board to lay the levy has
past and YOU 61ld that no change
has been made. before you begin
to cuss out the supervisors. think
well as to whether or not yon
have not had q hs nd in bringing
about this lamatable state Of at
fairs. Did you agitate this raise
of levy among your neighbors and
did You let the Board know what
you thought about itl If you did
not, then 40 not abuse the Super
visors for not doing what yon9did
not take enough interest IN TO
advocate.
If therefore YOU are interested
in the welfare of your children
get to work. See that the Board
of Supervisors are informed OF
your wishes in this matter and
strive to awake your neighbors 10
its importance also. When YOU
have done your best and fail to
accom- plish the desired result, then
you can cuss the other fellow with
better grace. -.
We would suggest that a petit
tion be circulated in each district
and strong efforts made to get
upon it the signature of a majority
of the taxpayers OF that district.
With such indisputable evidence
OF the wishes of the people the
Board Of Supervisors must either
raise the levy or act in direct OPP
position to the wishes of their
constituents. If the Dlatter is
properly presented to the people
there is po doubt that a majority
OF them would favor the raise.

FATHER OF pvRuM WHEAT DEAD

Charles Hitchcock Of Buttzville, N.
D., known as the ''father of maca-
roni wheat in North Dakota died
at his farm May 2lst. He secured in
1882 small bag of what is known as
Rice wheat from Canada. 1t had
been brought here by q farm hand
who worked on Mr.. Hitchcock's
farm. and later went back to Canada
leaving the sack of wheat. 1t lay
around in an out house for number
of years and was all destroyed but
about a cupful by the mice. In 1885
Mrs. Hitchcock in a general clean up
of the buildings, discovered the
wheat, and MI. Hitchcock examined
it. He was SO struck by the large
kernels that he planted what was left
in his garden. From this he got .
couple of quarts and he kept on grow
ing it until In 1891 he harvested 1900
bushels from forty acres.
It was largely from the supply and
what MI. Hitchcock grew subee-
quently that the great durum wheat
industry Of North Dakota had Its
start. b. i1sa,

BIG HEATING PROJECT
Western Electric Co. May Greatly
Extend It's Steam Heating
Business.

Manager Canham Of tho Western
Electric Company. may add an exten-
sive heating equipment to what is
now in operation 0y the electric light
company. 1t is proposed to furnish
heat for the greater portion OF the
business blocks Of the city on 5th
avenue and Main and Front streets.
1t is contemplated at present to run
the mains as far south on 5th' ave-
nue. as the Lutz building, east on Main
street to the Wallace building, south
to the high school, and proposed new
armory, and west on Main street to
the city hall. e,.
On the north side the mains are to
extend on 5th avenue to include the
Elks' building, and the owners. of
residences in two or three blocks on
north 5th avenue have also requested
MI. Canham to. extend the mains
north along that street, which propo-
sition is also under consideration.
Successful central heating plants
are furnishing heat at Bismarck,
Fargo and Dickinson, and a PROPOSE
tion is under consideration for put
ting one in at Glendive., The James
town plant would involve an expen-
diture of from $40, 900 to s22, 900. A
decision may be reached..in q short
time.

Two AND AQuARrER INCHES OF RAIN

TWO AND 4 QUARTER INCHES OF RAIN
The rain that again began Monday
morning continued during the day
and the greater part Of Monday night.
The rain was a steady dowRpour and
went deep into the ground, wetting
soil that has been dry for the last
year. In fact the rains Of the last
few days have given more water than
any similar rain period for over two
years. The farmers rejoice over the
heavy fall of rain. Water is standing
alongside of the roads and some low
spots in fields. The amount or rain
that has fallen since Friday is equal
to 2A inches as measured by the state
hospital guage. Rains have been
general over both North and South
Dakota, Alberta and throughout the
southern states to the Gulf.
