WATER A PROBLEM
IN HARVEST FIELD
RED RIVER VALLEY SOIL TILLERs
HAVE NEW DILEMMA TO CON-
FRONT IN LACK OF AQUA.

East Grand Forks, Mimi, Aug. 49,
Farmers living northeast of this city,
after loosing a good snare of their crop
because of the heat and drought, have
run against another big problem. The
continued drought and heat has caused
an unusual lack Of water, and in some
cases farmers are unable to go ahead
with threshing until some arrange
ments are made for securing water.
August Lietig, a farmer living near
Key West. was in the city, endeavoring
to find some means Of securing water
so that he can do his threshing. A
small stream, known as the Marias, Is
located in that vicinity, but 1t has been
entirely dried up, necessitating the
hauling of water from the Red Lake
river below Mallory. This is an un-
usually long distance to haul water, for
some of the farmers to the northeast
OF this city, but 1t undoubtedly Will
have to be done If threshing operations
are TO continue Farmers also have to
haul water for their cattle, being un-
able to get a sufficient supply on their
farm land.

IN HAIL STORM

Dickinson, NJ D., Aug. 15.--Mr. and
Mrs. F. A. Little and Mrs. Harrington
had an experience the night of the hail
storm that they will not forget right
away. They were driving out to Fay
cite and a mile or so this side of
Green river they seemed to get .nto
the very thickest of the storm. There
was no farm house near and Mr.. Lit
tie saw that they were In for It and
unhitchedls The neckyoke was wired to
the pole and before he could get the
horses entirely loose they became very
frightened by the roar OF the storm
and the peltlng OF hail stones and
started to run. Mr.. Little had one rein
and managed to keep the animals cir
cling so that they did not get away
from him. The ladies were out of the
wagon and were protecting their heads
and shoulders as best they could with
blankets, but they had many black
and blue spots as a result Of the hail
stones. Mr.. Little lost his hat and his
head was a sorry sight. His hands
were also bruised and bleeding as
result of the unusual storm. After 1t
was all over they drove to the John
Fisher home, where they got dry CLOTH
Ing. Mr.. Little has been in the coun-
try Gor q good many years, and he
says that he never in all his life saw
anything like this storm.

TEACHING Correct speech.

A woman of culture and travel has
made a glorious success teaching cor
rect speech. 1t Is surprising how
much incorrect speech there is among
our educated people. They cling to
provincialisms, incorrect pronuncia-
lions, wrong use Of words, and un-
musical intonations. The southerner
holds to the soft, r-less utterance Of
his nanny" days; the middle west
erner fattens his Vowels; the Boston
ian throws his RS completely out of
joint. This woman undertook to cor
rect such errors and teach a pure,
perfect English speech to few young
women. She became SO successful
that she was compelled to start
school of correct English which has
grown to great proportions. This par
ticularly promising field is open in
every town in America.-The Delinea-
tor.

JOHN Lind IS
Still silent
HAS ARRIVED IN SEATTLE, BUT
SAYS NO WORD ON
POLITICS.

Minneapolis, Minn Aug. 15.-John
Lind, the democratic nominee for gov
ernor, landed In Seattle late Saturday
from the steamer humboldt, on which
he had been taking a cruise up the
coast of Alaska, and, according to dis
patches from Seattle, hurried at once
into retirement in Montborne, a small
lumber town; true to the policy he
has maintained he said not a word,
and none Of his friends in Minnesota
today has had any word from him.
Frank A. Day, chairman of the state
committee, has assurances that Lind
will write him later in answer to the
notice sent him of his nomination. Ac-
cording to all Mr.. Lind's previous let
tiers and interviews that democratic
leaders have hope he will relent, as he
did twice before. and consent to use his
name at least
Day Is in Duluth as the guest Of
G. A. Wess, and in discussing the sit
uation he said today: "There has been
no definite decision as to the head of
the ticket; many democrats believe
John Lind will consent, but while /
recognize that 1t was necessary as a
means Of protecting the interests of the
party to nominate him, 1 have always
had some doubt as to whether he would
make the race. In my opinion IT mat
tiers not much whether he is in the race
as a candidate or leader. His voice
for some one else will be as potent as 1t
would be for himself"

WHY WOMEN GROW OLD EARLY
Through Mistaken Idea Of Duty She
Permits Her Life to Become
q Treadmill.

Why do some women grow old and
others keep the secret of perpetual
youth? Here is one answer:
One reason why the average woman
wears out. grows plain before her hus-
band, is that, through a mistaken idea
Of duty, she lays out for herself at
the beginning of her married life q
scheme or plan of duty and employ
ment for her time, every hour filed
with work, with rare and short periods
of relaxation.
This she follows religiously for
years, feeling that she has done her
duty, because every household event
occurs regularly and on time, while
she soon becomes merely machine,
a thing without life of itself or voli-
ton. She settles into rut, and goes
round and round on the same track
everlastingly.
Can any woman keep brightness,
originality of thought or speech, or
even mere prettiness with such life ?
And without those things how can she
keep her husband and growing chill
dren full OF loving admiration, which
is the strong chain by which she can
bind them to her? How bright and
jolly the neighbours wife seems when
she calls. In nine cases out or ten 1t
is because the surroundings and talk
of your home are variety to her, and
rouse her to originality and bright
ness of speech
Cultivate broad attitude toward
the world and It's people. Let your in
terests be far-reaching, and there will
be renewed vigor when 1t comes to
solve the problems. of the home.

Eating Between Meals.

Not much is said about this bad
habit nowadays, but is is still bad
habit. Do not let children eat choco-
lates, biscuits or sweetmeats at odd
times, whenever the within seizes
them.
This practise leads to many trouble
some little ailments connected with
the digestion.
Nibbling at crackers and sucking
sour balls or taffy are perhaps the
most common forms of eating all the
time" and should be checked as soon
as the habit is noticed.
A little pure candy may be given for
dessert at meal, or at night before
the teeth are washed, but 1t should
not be given more than once day.
