Will STACK THE GRAIN
Wise Farmers Preparing to Save
Every Kernel Possible and Will
Also Save on Labor.

Michigan Arena: Experienced and
careful farmers throughout this dis
trict are preparing to stack whatever
grain they may be fortunate enough to
have. This will not only mean a ire
mendous saving in labor-which in
any event will be heavy enough bur-
den this year-but will result in the
saving Of much short and scattered
grain which the binders will be unable
to secure in bundles. With the shocks
scattered all over the field, and rods
apart, as they are certain to be this
season, 1t would literally require call
the kings horses and all the kings
men" to keep one wheezy little thresh-
ing outfit running at half speed. 1t
is very apparent to the farmer in the
drouth district that IL he has anything
to save he must save 1t at a minimum
of cost and labor, If he would retain
the smallest portion of the receipts for
himself. Therefore the wisest will
CLEAN the last straw and stack their
grain-both as a means of certain
economy of labor and time, and of i'm
proving the grade. Where the grain
Is too sparse to cut with binder and
too dry for fodder, it would seem to
be policy to start the plows at once
gaining thereby a much needed rest
for the land and all the practical adj
vantages Of the renowned and eff
ficacious summer fallow. In the east
the "wiseacres" are viewing North Da-
kota with the 'T-told-you-so" air OF all
elder brother, and we are free to con-
fess that there is some truth in their
assertion that the majority of North
Dakota farmers merely tickle the
ground and let 1t go at that confident
ly expecting crop in return. 1t be-
hooyes us, therefore, to swallow our
pride and make the most of our mis-
takes in other seasons to come. When
North Dakota is farmed as intensively
as Iowa now is, we viii be in a posi-
ton to scoff at the mere effects of or
binary drouth.

ITO Whom 1t May Concern:
"a friend of mine was induced to

perfect cure of the drink habit in
three days, at the institute or in the

man who was passing through town
this morning said, there were no less
than fourteen special cars containing
prominent railroad men at the park,

THE PASSING OF THE
MoORHEAD HIGH BALL

Williston State: With the passing
Of the Moorhead high ball there will
drift into mere memory of many North
Dakota citizens many an aurora bore
alis night followed with furred tongues
and burning thirsts, accompanied with
a dark and dreary headache that holds
on and on and makes a man wonder
IL he is really worthy Of a friend on
earth. Moorhead has been a busy
place-they say. From early morning
to late at night many OF the Fargo
people have taken their daily exercise
in that direction. Walking on the
bridge had become a habit, and when
the Williston man or the Minot man
or the Valley City man--with just an
exception here and there, walked out
of the hotel at Fargo his steps marked
quick time across the boards Of the
bridge which crosses the Ruby. It
looks like strong drink would pass for
ever from the scene of festive days
and nights, and that there will follow
the occupancy of buildings with dry
goods, groceries and provision empori-
ums, which will at any rate contribute
more to the material benefit of the
visitor. The Williston visitor and the
other fellows will not go to Moorhead
as much as they used TO, but they will
keep going to Fargo just the same. It
is because Fargo is a nice place to
go to.

The COMING DROUGHT
Michigan Arena Discusses the corir,
"Dry Spell" in Minnesota Border
Towns,

Michigan Arena: In mournfuI com.
pany with a score or more of other
Minnesota towns Moorhead must go
dry. Liquor vendors in the city across
from Fargo will cater no more to the
local thirst or quench the threats of
the pilgrims who daily cross the bridge
from North Dakota So reads an ord.
er from the Indian bureau, which de-
crees that the drouth shall have effect
on and after the 18th day of Septem.
Der OF the present year. Under the
conditions of an old treaty in which
certain Minnesota lands were coded
by the Indians, spirituous liquors were
forbidden sale within the district
ceded. Until now this important pro-
vision has been in effect a dead letter.
Presumably the enforcement is the
fruit of prohibitionist activity, which
has brought to the attention of the
bureau this violation of the treaty
agreement. Minnesota liquor dealers
are aroused to action by the impend-
ing calamity which threatens their an
cient privilege of assisting intemper-
ance. While admitting, however I'M
willingly, that wines and spirits must
fall under the official ban, saloon men
and brewers, backed by enormous
capital, will fight by injunction for the
retention of the privilege to sell beer
basing their argument upon the con-
tention that the amber draught is not
"spirituous," and, therefore not includ-
ed in the order. Whatever else the
merits or dement's of the order may
be. this pretext of the brewers asso-
citation is fiimsy and their position I'M
tenantable. A too free indulgence in
beer is fraught with the identical eff
fects that follow intemperance in
wines or spirits. None know this bet
ter than the brewers, and should they
succeed in their efforts at q technical
evasion, then is law mockery and
the recent order worthless as an allie
Walton. 1t is the old struggle, with
an added impetus, of vice and its pro-
fits arrayed against order and decency.
Conglomerate and virile, the American
public is not of the type of certain
contained and phlegmatic European
nations, whose citizens partake freely
American is given to excess in all
things, and the opportunity to indulge
In any liquor whatsoever Is invariably
followed in this country by intemper-
ance and debauch. Therefore, we
count 1t a distinct victory for the pub
lie good wherever and whenever, or
by whatsoever means, temptation and
opportunity for over indulgence are
curtailed. The bitterest foes of the
recent order, aside from the implac-
able brewers and saloon men, with
their attendant purveyors of vice. will
be a certain class of drinkers, who are
of the opinion that it is an American
citizens privilege to abuse his body
and mind whenever he sees fit. AS to
these latter, the rigid enforcement of
the order will result in the satisfac-
tlon of their creditors, the building of
homes, and a general increase in their
standard of worth and efficiency
Which is a good thing, however IL
may be accomplished.

DROUTH in
NORTH AMERICA
THE RECORD IS HELD BY THE
YEAR 1852, WHEN 1913 DAYS
PASSED WITHOUT ANY RAIN.
FALL WHATEVER 49, OTHER
DROUGHT PERIODS.

When conditions prevailing through
out this country during the past two
months are considered, readers gener-
ally will be interested in learning the
record of severe droughts in America
dating as far back as the landing of
the Pilgrim Fathers, which is as fol-
lows:
In the summer of 1921, twenty-four
days in succession without rain.
In the summer of $780, forty-one
days in succession without rain.
In the summer Of 1857, seventy-fve
days in succession without rain.
In the summer 1852, eighty days in
succession without rain.
In the summer of 1874, forty-five
days in succession without rain.
In the summer of 1888, eighty-one
days in succession without rain.
In the summer of 1894, sixty-two
days in succession without rain.
In the summer OF 1705, forty days in
succession without rain.
In the summer OF 1715, forty-six
days in succession without rain.
In the summer of 1928, sixty-one
days in succession without rain.
In the summer of 1880, ninety-two
days in succession without rain.
In the summer Of 1741, seventy-two
days in succession without rain.
In the summer Of 1749, 10S days in
succession without rain.
In the summer of 1855, forty-two
days in succession without rain.
In the summer of 1852, 1913 days in
succession without rain.
In the summer of 1878, eighty days
in succession without rain.
In the summer Of 1871, eighty-two
days in succession without rain
In the SUMMER of 1902. twenty-three
days in succession without rain.
In the summer of 1912, twenty-eight
days In succession without rain.
In the summer Of 1856, twenty-four
days in succession without rain.
In the summer of 1871, forty-two
days in succession without rain.
In the summer of 1875, twenty-six
days in succession without rain.
In the summer of 1875, twenty-six
days in succession without rain.
1t will be seen that the longest
drought that ever occurred in America
was in the summer of 1852. No rain
fell from the first of May to the first
of September, making 123 days with
out rain. Many of the inhabitants
sent to England for hay and grain.
OF course, at the time Of the most
extraordinary droughts the term
America included a very much smaller
area than the present-little more than
q mart If the NexU ENGLAND states
eastern New York, and Virginia.
