sion, said prominent physician,
Il that one Of the most constant
sources of infant mortality is the
imbecile pride, SO common among
parents of both high and low degree,
in the capacity of their children to
eat anything on the table, just as
they do themselves. In our every
day practice we physicians meet with
this as the cause at least one-half
the illness among little children"
1t is frequently the custom among
parents to think that what is pro-
vided for themselves in the way Of
food may be given without risk, to
the child The usual haphazard
method of feeding children is found
ed upon ignorance. These parents
do not understand that the food
which an adult can receive and as
simulate does harm to the tender d.
gestive organs Of a young child.
Recently at one of our women's
institutes, l discovered a mother of
fering an unripe apple to her baby, a
pale, delicate mite, Of possibly two
and one-half years. / suggested that
a child so young had trouble digest
ing raw fruit, even when thoroughly
ripe. Very cherfully the mother took
the apple away from the baby, at
the same time rewarding me with a
bright smile and word of apprsci-
alton for my interest. When next
my attention was directed to this
little group the baby was contented-
ly munching a pickle. Such careless
ness and ignorance at this period Of
a child's life is quickly followed by
pernicious results. The great need

which, when acted upon by heat, are
partially changed into very easily
digested substance called dextrine.
An extremely high and prolonged
temperature is required for this
change, without which cereals are
not nutritious, and are likely to cause
digestive troubles. Starch foods i'm
perfectly cooked, undergo fermenta-
ton, therefore, for young children
it is especially necessary that thor"
ough cooking be the rule.
The following cereals are suitable
for young children: Granulated or
crushed wheat, which makes a good
all-the-year-round food, possessing
no fat and requiring cream to make
it a perfect winter food; corn meal,
a winter food, which builds up strong
tissues; cooked gluten; oat -four,
from which delicious pudding may
be made; crushed barley. which,
when properly cooked in milk or in
water, is an easily digested nursery
food, and when used with gluten,

ishing nursery food. All these foods

wheat is preferable. All foods con-
tanning starch should not be used at
all during the first year, unless by
medical advice. moreover they must
be used cautiously during the second
year, when milk should still predom-
mate as food.

THE FOURTH AT
GARDEN VALLEY

Garden Valley has decided to
celebrate the Fourth of July and
at q meeting of the Literary society
there last week arrangements we're
made for the big time, the place
selected being the Hedderich ranch.
Committees were appointed and a
large fund subscribed which will
insure those attending a pleas
ant time and something doing to
entertain them. --... ..
As there is to be no other ceie-
bration near Garden Valley they
should receive q large crowd, and
have made preparations for all who
come. The special features will
likely be ANNOUNCED later but if
not, anyone going is sure to be
pleased because the people of Gar
den Valley always know how to
make things pleasant for their
guests.

TWO new SCHOOL
DIRECTORS CHOSEN

Mrs. S. NJ. Hyde and E. B.
Link were elected members of the
Board of Education of the, Willis
ton Special School District, Tnes-
day, the former by a majority of
10 votes over Leroy Smith and
the latter without opposition. The
new members will succeed Presi-
dent G. G.. Mackenroth and Leroy
Smith, Mr.. Mackenroth not being
a candidate for reelection, while
quite q little interest was excited
over the race between Mrs. Hyde
and Mr.. Smith.
While the vote was about the
largest ever cast at school cleo
tion, being 1913, it was q small
vote considering the effort that
was made by the friends of the
contestants to get people to vote,
automobiles being used and prac-
tically all who voted got q free
ride. Mr.. Link polled the entire
vote and Mrs. Hydle's total was
2o4 and Mr.. Smiths was 1874.

The teachers of the county to
the number of about eighty-6ve
assembled at the high school in
this city Monday morning at 9
a. M, and the meeting was called
to order by County Superintendent
Mrs. Tatem who, in q few we'll
chosen words, commended the
teachers upon their punctuality and
enrolment number, then intro
duced the institute instructors,
each of whom briefly outlined the
weeks work in his subject after
greeting the teachers.
Prof. E. G.. Schmidt of State
University was first introduced.
He spoke of the scope of institute
work, saying the aim for the week
would be rather method instead of
subject matter. He emphasized
the social phase of the institute
and designated the meeting of
teachers as place to renew zeal
and enthusiasm.
Mrs. Saunderson then briefly
greeted the teachers saying ''The
teachers profession is noblest on
earth and worthy of your en-
thusiasm."
Miss Pett, of Mlnot, instructor
in penmanship and drawing pleas
ingly anda appropriately character
lied her work and was followed by
Miss Fisher of the Madison normal

PLACES AND PEOPLE
OF HOWARD, n. D.
The HISTORIC LANDMARK KNOWN As
n. BAR BUIE- some PROSPEROUS
Farmers AND BUSINESS MN

Howard, N. D., June IN.
Bar Butte, two miles west of How
ard, is one of the we'll known land
marks of this section of the county
and can be seen for many miles.
It is so named because one of the
early cattlemen Of this country
pitched his tent there and his brand
was N. However none of the
old time cowboys would recognR /
the vicinity now because it has
been changed for the better and
prosperity shines upon the settlers
and the land blossoms like the rose.
j. Egge one of the pioneers,
now owns part of the Butte and he
and his family own five quarters
in the immediate vicinity. Their
land is nearly all in cultivation and
Mr.. Egge is going to build q large
barn this summer. Some of the
other farmers of the neighborhood
are G. j. Simmons, Albert Fisher,
Frank Larson and John O. Rosie.
A new school house 22x26 with
stone foundation and papered and
plastered is also being erected.
One of the beautiful places is
Wild Rose farm owned by
Geo. w. Boyer. The house and
grounds are well kept and the
home has all the comforts,
conveniences and beautiful sur
roundings that 60 to make life on
the farm enjoyable. Mr.. Boyer
believes in making life pleasant for
all and is the leader of the orches-
ira that furnishes music for the
entertainments of the Howard
neighborhood.
One of the surprises, no doubt,
to many is the nursery just two
miles east of Howard, owned by
Dan j. Nero. The nursery covers
seven acres and has q variety of
thirty trees, and is kept in fine
condition. 1t cannot be beat any,
where in the state. Mr.. Nero is
, one of the hustling young men of
the county and while he might be
called an old bachelor just now, if
the wedding bells don't ring about
Howard before many months l
will miss my guess. P. A. White.
