NO MORE PAINTED
CANDY

WASHINGTON, July 15.-When
the present stock in the hands Of
the confectioners is exhausted,
there will be no more candies var
nished with shellac and other
gums. In the past, cheap bon bons
have been covered with mixtures
scarcely more edible than house
paints, but the ruling in effect to-
day will serve to stop such prac-
tees.
Several reasons are given by the
food bureau prohibiting the use of
gums. One is that the gums are
prepared in alcoholic solutions and
even wood alcohol solutions. The
other reasons are that the coating
conceals inferiorities and enables
candy to be kept in stock for long
periods of time, both undesirable
results.

NORWEGlANs.
GIVEN BY NORMAN FRENCH
Erected in Honor Of Millennium Of the
Conquest Of Normandy byscele-
brated Northman Must
Name Park for Him.

Fargo.-This city is to have statue
of Rollo. the Northman. It is to be
presented to the Norwegians Of the
United States by the Norman French
in honor Of the millennium Of the Duchy
Of Normandy, France. The statue will
be unveiled in this city July 4, 1911.
DIR. H. o. Fjelde of Abercrombie, to
whom Fargo Is so greatly, indebted, is
the moving spirit in securing this new
honor for Fargo. The doctor was in
strumental in getting the Bjornson
beauta stem, which adorns a prominent
site in the A., G. campus and the he
roic monument Of Wergeland, which is
on prominent site in Island park.
There are certain conditions to the
location Of the Rollo statue in Fargo,
one of them being that there must be
a park dedicated for this purpose and
to be named Rollo.
Rollo, the Northman, with his band
Of brave Norsemen, conquered that
part of France, now known as Nor
mandy, and reached an agreement in
1911 with Charles, the Simple. It Is in
celebration of the millennium Of this
event that the statue is being sent to
the Norwegians of the United States
and Fargo is exceptionally fortunate
in being able to secure the great honor
of being the location Of the statue.

Want to Prepare oue.tiors.

Grand Forks.-High school superin-
tendents of this state believe that they
are the ones who should make up the
list of questions in the state examina-
tions, and at the conference held at
the state university, a resolution was
passed requesting that they be allowed
to do so, this request going to the high
school board.
At the present time. high school
state examination questions are pre-
pared at the state university by men,
bers of the faculty. If the plan pro-
posed by the superintendent il adopt
ed. a committee Of about twenty super
intendents in all sections of the state
would be charged with the duty of
preparing these questions.
Another matter taken up was that CT
allowing credits for penmanship and
spelling in high schools This practice
was abolished and those two subjects
will hereafter give credits.

HOMESTEAD LANDS.
100000 Acres in the WiIliston District
Available juno Is.


Williston.-That there still remains
in the Williston land office district of
the United States at least 100000 acres
open to settlement, is revealed by a
statement of Register George w. Will
son. This amount of land will soon
be increased by the re-opening of GER
tain land which was withdrawn some
time ago, and by the opening of the
Fort Berthold reservation lands.
When the last official statement was
issued, there remained 648,300 acres
in the district open to settlement. Fill
ings have been and are now being
made at an average of about six day,
so that the present open acreage is
about 100000. The abandonment Of
the Nessen irrigation project and the
restoration of Nessen and Grinnell
valleys to settlement, means the ad-
dition Of thousands of acres of rich
farming lands to the district.
Squattings on the land in these two
valleys will be permitted June Is, and
on July 25 the filings will be accepted.
There is certain to be race for places
on June 26, as there are some fine
parcels o. ground in the district.

North Dakota Farn,srs are Pisassd
With New 600 Extension. & 81 n

Grand Forks.-Farmers and land
owners in the central, northern and
western parts Of North Dakota are
pleased at the prospects Of having
better railway connections with Du.
luth's wheat market, by reason Of the
new railway lines planned by the soot
and particularly because Of it's new
cut-off from Drake.
Papers have been filed in the Of
flee of the secretary Of state at Bis
marck, designating the course Of the
new CUTOFF, which will pass through
part Of McHenry county, thence clear
across Pierce, Benson and Ramsey
counties. and part Of Nelson and
Walsh counties, distance Of about
$50 miles. The contract has been let
for grading parts Of the line, and
graders are at work all along the first
"a miles east Of Drake, while others
are at work from the Medford end.
The surveyors are not yet through
with their work, but are still busy in
Benson county, headed for Devils
Lake. which will be a station on the
new line Surveys were run from both
Drake and Medford ends, the Med
ford crews having already reached
Devils Lake. The fact that the grad
ers are thus following SO closely on
the heels Of the surveyors evidences
the haste with which the construction
is being carried on, and it is conf
IDENTIFY expected that the line will be
ready in time to haul this years crops.
Sixty miles Of grading are said to
have been already contracted for at
the Medford end.
In Towner county this new 500
line crosses the new Fargo-New
Rockford -Minot cutoff of the Great
Northern, which is no wunder con-
struction, not far from Drake, and
there is considerable rivalry between
the, construction crews and right-of-
way and townsite agents of the two
roads.
The 500 is also said to be planning
an extension Of IT'S Drake-Plaza line,
to Williston on the westward, and
also a line to Elbowoods, to the
southwest on the Missouri river and
this new Drake Medford cutoff will
haul all the grain from all the Soo's
lines west Of Drake, and with che
new Thief River Falls CUTOFF in
Minnesota, and this new cutoff in
North Dakota, the Duluth markets
will be brought many miles nearer.
and the saving in mileage and freight
will be of great benefit to the North
Dakota farmer.
