NO one can read Congressman

No one can read Congressman
Steenerson's statement of his posi-
ton on matters now pending before
congress without being impressed
that he is in full accord with the Re-
publican sentiment of his district. It
must not be forgotten that Mr.. Steen-
erscn is Republican, that he was
elected as such, and those who elect.
ed him expect that he will 2o-operate
with the Republican majority in con-
gress. He shows that he has stooo
for those ideas which he thought were
RI ut but he has stood on the Repub.
hcan platform, on which he ran and
on which he was elected. AS he well
points out he has some serious mat
ters to attend to for the people of his
district and has other things to do
ne l1es attempting to make war on
the majority of his party which or.
ganizel the house. He voted against
the majority On the tariff bill because
the bill! did not correspond to the pro.
MI: es OF the party. He does not pro-
pose to leave the republican party to
which he belongs and which is in
control OF congress and in taking this
stand he is absolutely right and all
ats mpts to unseat him on this kind
OF an Issue will result in a dismal
lallure.-Fergus Falls Journal.

We thought there was law in this
state against selling cigarettes, yet
nearly every day we see boys and
young men with the deadly little
coffin nail' between their lips Evil
IDENTIFY somebody is violating the law.
We do not blame the boys so much,
as they see their elders smoking all
around them and do not realize the
harmful effects. But a business man,
who, for paltry profit and contrary to
law, persists in selling to the boys
and starting them on the road to be-
come cigarette fiends, and perhaps
ruin their career in life, is decidedly
- blame. When later in life these
b0ys find out how the habit has harm
ed them, they will curse you for the
opportunity you gave them to 20
astray. But young man, noble young
man, why do you persist in smoking
cigarettes when medical science and
common experience teaches that the
practice will harm you physically
morally and mentally? You will be
held responsible for your own acts
and must suffer the consequences
mo cigarette fiend need apply" is an
edict that has gone forth from many
large employers of labor. Let the
demoralizing business of selling cigar
cites be stopped, otherwise the strong
arm of the law will be invoked to do
it.

ANIMALS CONSUME OUR FOOD
Conservation in This Line Among I'M
portant Subjects Discussed by
Eastern Farmers.

State College, Pa.-Among the i'm.
portant subjects discussed at the
fourth annual state college farmers
week, was the problem of supplying
the necessary food for man, when the
time shall have arrived when the in
creased population will necessitate
more Intensive husbandry and greater
economy in the rations of cattle. In
other words, it is believed by DR.. H. P.
Armsby, head of the department OF
animal nutrition, that the time will
come when the demand for food il
this country will be so great that it
will be impossible for man to live, if
the food palatable to human beings.
Thus, complex experiments are being
conducted here under the direction of
Dr. Armsby. The machine employed
in the work is an animal calorimeter.
Steers are put into this apparatus
and by means of infinitely accurate OBJ
servations made every 80 seconds, is
learned the exact disposal of every bit
of the ration of the animal. Through
changes in the diet of the bovine sub
jects knowledge is acquired as to the
most economic feed and by the sup
plying of foodstuffs not desirable to
man but tasteful to cattle, informa-
ton Is obtained along the line of con-
serving the food supply of the coun.
try. Speaking of the calorimeter and
it's allied investigation, DR.. Armsby
said: s u .s.aa i; ;.s
"A sufficient food supply is funda,
mental necessity Of civilization, and
Its conservation is as important as that
of our mines, forests or water pow
ers. We are at last beginning to re.
alize that there is such thing 40
a food problem, and that when. In the
not distant future, our population
reaches half q billion, It may be very
serious one. All the available mate
rial will then be needed for human
consumption. A large part Of the
products Of the farm, however. can
not be consumed directly. About 70
per cent. Of the wheat crop Is con.
tanned In the straw and the milling
residues, while hay and similar forage
crops we cannot consume at all. We
can, however, feed them to farm anil
mails, and thus affect : double say.

The Young Widow

She is modest, but not bashful,
Free and easy but not bold,
Like an apple, ripe and mellow,
Not too young and not too old.
half melting, half repulsing,
Now advancing, and now shy:
There is mischief in her dimple-
There is danger in her eye.
She has studied human nature
She is Schooled in all her arts,
She has taken her diploma
AS the mistress of all hearts.
She can tell the very moment
When to sigh, and when to smile
0, maid is often charming,
But widow all the while,
Are you sad? How very serious
Will her smiling face become.
Are you angry? She is wretched.
Dropping, signing, fearful, dumb.
Are you mirthful? How her laughter
Silver-sounding, will ring out
She can lure, and catch, and play you,
AS an angler does the trout.
Ye old bachelors of forty,
Who have grown so bald and wise
Young Americans of twenty
With the love-locks in your eyes
You may practice all the lessons
Taught by Cupid since the fall,
But know a little widow
Who can win and fool you all.

Dorothy as Meredith's wife;
she won't understand him in

cross when he is only en-

he is witty; she never, you
