OBSERVERS FUN AND SENTIMENT
Some Pleasant Catches That are Ex-
pressive

Did you ever stop to think that it
was one thing to talk about people and
another thing to have people talk about
you? If those of US who use our
tongues a little too freely about our
neighbors would stop and reflect about
the matter and know the great evil
that comes from too much talk and
tattling, we are sure we would call a
halt and gossip no more forever.

An exchange asking, "What has be-
come of the man who used to light his
pipe with coal from the cook stove?"
has been answered by the Columbia
Herald as follows: ''It's easy enough.
The old man has passed over the river
at the age of IS; his son is putting a
l0-cent cigar, and the grandson rolls
his own cigarettes and lights them
with popping match-but he'll never
see 9S."

CROP PROSPECT
IS NOT SO BAD
MiNoT MAN BACK FROM AUTO
TRIP OVER COUNTY Is VERY
OPTIMISTIC.

Minot, N. D., July 15.-As much
grain will be raised in Ward county
this year as last year. AS much grain
will be raised in Williams county this
year as last year and Mckenzie coun.
ty will raise fully as much as last
year.
This is the opinion of w. II. Dunn
after an automobile trip oyer the
northwestern section of the state.
which quite effectually covered Ward,
Williams and Mckenzie counties.
Mr.. Dunn does not profess to say
that the crop is as good as last year,
but taking everything into considera-
ton he believes there will be as much
grain raised as the acreage In all
three counties this year is considera-
ably larger than last year.
Mr.. Dunn's auto trip covered dis
lance of about 300 miles and took him
as far west as Williston, north to
crosby, south to Ryder ana east of
Mtnot short distance.
The poorest crop prospect in all the
territory covered is in the immediate
vicinity of Minot
In northern Ward and williams
counties there is a fair crop and ex-
cept In few isolated instances there
Is nothing like a complete failure.
Mr.. Dunn made the trip for the
Minot Land and Loan Co.

How to Cure Eczema, Pirnples
and Dandruff e.

We desire to say that when we took
the agency for ZEMO, we were COM
WINGED that it was valuable remedy
for Eczema, pinples and dandruff Yet,
we must frankly admit that Zemo has
far exceeded our expectations as a
treatment for skin diseases. We are
pleased to state that we shall continue
the agency as zBMO has given splen-
did results wherever recommended.
Our customers like ZEMo, too. be-
cause it is clean vegetable liquid for
external use.
zEMO effects Its cures by drawing
to the surface OF the skin and de-
stroying the germ life that causes the
disease, leaving the skin clear ana
healthy. 1t does not soil the clothing
or linen and can be used freely on in
fauts.
With every purchase we give a
booklet on skin diseases, explaining in
simple words how any person can be
cured at home of any form of skin or
scalp diseases by this clean, scientific
remedy. Fout & Porterfeld, Druggists,

Things.

Cogswell Enterprise: The writer
went to Fargo by auto Saturday in
company with J. j. White and DR..
saylor who attended the state trap
shoot under the auspices of the Gate
City Gun club. This afforded us an
opportunity to become familiar with
crop conditions first hand In Ransom
and Cass counties. The best crops we
saw were between Cogswell and Lis
bon, and taken as a whole the yield
will be. about half a yield while
others are not worth cutting. From
Sheldon to Fargo the crops are very
poor with the exception of corn which
is good everywhere. In this section
many fields are being plowed under,
while some the being cut for feed. Rain
is badly needed for flax, potatoes and
corn, and the success of these crops
depends largely on the amount of
moisture in the next two weeks.

RUNAWAY engine
CAUGHT BY AUTO
GLENDIvE, MONT RAILWAY MEN
HAVE EXCITING TIME WHEN
SWITCH MoGUL TEARS
LOOSE.

Glendive, Mont, July ia new rec
ord for automobiles was made here to-
day when an automobile was success
fully used to stop a runaway switch en-
.gine, probably saving the lives of a
sleeping. car crew.
Two switch engines were at work IN
the yards, when one 'side hit" the 9TH

off steam and he and his fireman jump
ed just as their cab was demolished by
the collision
But something struck the throttle
Of the engine, opening it wide, and be-
fore 1t could be boarded 1T bounded
away down the main track as a run
away. A yardmaster tried to wave 1t
down. A section crew scattered just in
time to avoid being run over.
A circus parade was crossing the
track at one point and a cage Of lions
was, barely avoided.
Down the track a short distance q
caboose had been left, In which train
crew was asleep. This was struck, but
not with sufficient force to wreck it.
The caboose and an empty freight car
attached to it then became part of the
runaway.
One. member of the train crew was
awakened by the jar when the caboose
was struck. and hastily donned some
clothing and jumped through win
dow. His feet were painfully injured
as he struck the ground, necessitating
medical attention.
In the meantime the fireman of the
truant engine had jumped into Henry
car and asked him to
chase the runaway, hoping TO catch 1t
on the long up grade east of the city.
Then began an exciting race. Stead
lily the automobile gained on the run
away as the grade was reached. Just
at the top of the hill the Buick pulled
close, to the track, the fireman made a
jump and run, managing to board the
runaway engine and bring 1t to stop
just before long down grade was
reached

Ward COUNTY FAIR
SURE TO Be HELD

Minqt N. D., July 15.-Joseph Roach,
president of the Ward County Fair as
ISOLATION, this morning denied a re-
port which has been current in the
city for the past several days to the
effect that no county fair would be held
at Minot this fall.
Mr.. Roach said the premium list was
being printed and would no doubt be
ready to issue in short time and that
the dates for the fair would be Sept
%, 20 and 80.
The official canvass of the demo-
cratic vote cast at the recent election
shows that John Bruegger, the well
known Williston merchant, and mayor
or the city, has carried Ward county
by a safe majority for state senator
over Senator Duis Of Grand Forks

MANITOBA WHEAT
CROP TO BE Light
AVERAGE OF EIGHT BUSHELS
PREDICTED FOR SOUTHERN
PART OF PROVINCE.

Winnipeg, July Is. - 1t is evident
that Manitoba crops, more especially
southern Manitoba's, have suffered Sc
verely and that taken as a whole that
section will not produce more than half
the usual yield. Judging by the num-
Der OF reports that run from eight to
ten bushels for wheat 1t would be safe
to place the yield of that section Of
the province at eight bushels as the
average. This roughly includes the
country lying south of the main line Of
the Canadian Pacific railway though
even in that area there are some fine
crops which viii help out the average.
Southern Saskatchewan has suffered
less than expected Southern Alberta
may be counted almost total loss.
Northern and central Saskatchewan
have one Of the finest crops in their
history, and Of all the provinces Sas-
katchewan has the largest area in
wheat and the largest percentage Of
that area is in the central and north
ern parts Of the province. Northern
Alberta, speaking generally, has a good
crop.
The oats crop will be light and the
barley crop generally unsatisfactory,
but speaking broadly the fax crop is a
success in the districts where the larg-
est areas were sown.
The Free Press says: The west will
not harvest a bumper crop this year,
that is out of the question; but she will
have bread and seed and a very fair
amount for export and the quality will
be high"
In many reports stress is laid on the
fact that where careful farming has
been done the crop is good in spite Of
the light rainfall.
Two thirds Yield Expected.
Esmond, N. D., July 15.-Because Of |
several good rains the crop situation |
IN southern Pierce and Benson counties
has improved, and at least a two-thirds |
crop Is expected. A thirty-fiv mile |
rip from Esmond to Rugby, yesterday, |
disclosed the fact that no grain was |
being plowed under anywhere along the |
-oad until about six miles south of |
Rugby, where several fields, of land |
Early seeded, were burned yellow. and |
we're being summer fallowed. There |
Ire many good fields Of fax, and a few |
airly good fields Of wheat, oats and
barley.
GAINESVILLE Mimi, July 15.-Clay
md Wilkin counties will have a two
birds crop of small grain. Corn and
potatoes are safe and the hay crop will
'e good after harvest, owing to the
'rass being thick on the ground.
