COMMUNICATION.

Editor CoURIEK-DEMoCRAT, Langdon, N, d.
l am on my way to Banf, and between
Moosejaw and Medicine Hat. We have
had many crop reports about Langdon
at places where we have stopped since
leaving home and perhaps it would be of
some interest to many of your readers to
know how l have found the crops to
be growing on the road vel which we
have travelled since leaving Langdon. I
came over the 500 from Nekoma to Por-
tai. Made inquiry at stations along the
way and from personal observation and
various reports obtained I have come to
the conclusion that we will not have a
bushel of grain in the north end of the
state to sell. I did not see one field that
/ thought could be cut with a binder.
But 1 think that by cutting it with
mowers and raking it up we will be able
to get our seed and plenty of feed. Per
haps it will seem hard and very slow to
farm that way and have to get down to
saving little things,but it seems to me to
be the thing to do. We hardly realize
yet that We will hardly have a dollar
coming in this fall, but when we do we
will know that we are up against a hard
proposition and our ability to manage
will be taxed to the limit. to pull through
until another year. And even with the
best of management some will be forced
to thu wall porboo ~ -, a lae,op uo
needed to learn. We have been running
on high years at an awful gait for a long
time. Many have exceeded the speed
limit and this may be a good time to call
a bait and get down to common sense
living. Perhaps the early settlers are the
only ones who know about the econo-
my we will have to practice. But we
ought to start now to save everything in
sight. ] think that the crops six miles
south of Langdon on the road to Neko-
ma are as good as any I have seen in
North Dakota this summer and when I
passed through Rolette county, up near
the boundary line, l found the poorest.
Ont there they will have a hard time to
get feed for their stock. Fuathsr west
at the first crossing OF the Mouse river
they will probably get a quarter Of
q crop. From there on tho condition re-
NAMED about the same until were ached

TO COME WEST
viii Swing Round the Circle and
Take In the South ON
Trip.

\ dispatch from Washington
quotes republican leader as say
ing:
Realizing that the tendency of
the western states is strongly pro-
gressive and that none but a pro-
gressive republican will stand a
chance of election to the presidency
in 1912, Colonel Roosevelt will
make his spring trip into the west
the basis for a progressive cam
paign,"
Rumors current here are that
Roosevelt will plan his speaking
tour in all the southern states on
his way to the Pacific coast as pre-
liminary to the opening of a cam
paign, In the west and northwest
he will deliver several addresses,
most of which will be in support of
the insurgent spirit, instead of at
tempting to mold public sentiment
in favor of Taft. This attempt, II
is believed, would be the only man
ner in which Roosevelt could defeat
himself.

Made From Grapes.

OF all the fruits that grow to give
sustenance and nourishment TO man
kind. the grape is the most famous.
A favorit subject of the poet, TINS
healthful. luscious fruit has from
the beginning of time been cele-
brated in song and story, There
fore it is pleasude to know that
TO the grape we are indebted Tor
some of the finest foods that go to
our table, for from the grape is de-
rived Royal Grape Cream of Tartar,
the chief ingredient and active prln-
ciple of the world-renowned Royal
Baking Powder.
While the connection between
baking powder and grapes may seem
remote. il is evident to those who
know that cream of tartar exists IN
all ripe grapes, from which 1t is
directly produced in the following
manner:
Flowing with the juice of the
grape from the press, the cream OF
tartar gradually separates theretrom
and settles upon and adheres to the
sides of the casks It is subsequent
" collected, boiled, and purified
with water. Crystals of cream OF
tartar, white and very pure, are pro,
duced specially refined, and ground
into an impalpable powder. This
forms the Royal Grape Cream OF
Tartar from which Royal Bakinf
Powder is made. The exclusive EN-
ployment of this pure fruit acid has
aided i'm rendering Royal unique II

it does, the delicious flavor anC
wholesome properties which are
characteristic of all food made will

FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE
DIES AT NINETY ONE
The Heroine of the Crimean War in
1S5I-First Woman to Fol-
low Modern Army.

Florence Nightingale, the heroine
of the Crimean war and the founder
of the system of army field hospi-
tails, died in London on the 18th
instant, at the advanced age of 81
years. She was the only woman who
ever received the order of merit,
recognition that is given TO few
men She was known as the
Angel of Crimea." At the close of
that war she was enabled by a testi-
monial fund amounting to $250,O0O
to found an institution for the train
ing of nurses, the Nightingale home
at st. Thomas hospital.
Florence Nightingale, one of the
founders of the Red Cross society,
was born at Florence, Italy. Her
father was William Edward Night
ingale, of Embley Park, Hampshire,
and her mother was Lea Hurst. of
Derbyshire. Her father, who was
very highly educated, instructed her
in mathematics. the classics and
modern languages.
She exhibited an intense devotion
to the alleviation of suffering at an
early age and began visiting and in
specting hospitals in 1914. She Wis
tied hospitals all over Europe and
went into training as a nurse in the
institution of Protestant Deaconesses
at Kaiserswerth on the Rhine in
1851. She also studied with the Sis
ters of St. Vincent de Paul in Paris
and when she returned to England
she took up hospital work at the
Sanatorium for Governesses.
When England declared war on
Russia in 1854 and the wounded
English soldiers were sent to the
miserable hospitals on the BospOrus,
where they died among revolving
conditions, Miss Nightingale wrote
to the war department. volunteered
her services and offered to organize
a nursing department at Scutari,
Her offer was accepted, She and
thirty-four nurses arrived at Con-
stantinople on the eve of the battle
of Inkermann-th beginning of the
terrible winter campaign-and were
in time to receive the wounded into
wards already filled with 23O0 pa
tients. She would stand for twenty

THE STANFORD
UNIVERSITY CO-EDS

With Stanford university about to
reopen for the fall semester, rules
which will be expected to govern the
demeanor of the fair co-eds, living
in the girls dormitories were posted
today Much attention is given to
those who would pay court to the
co-eds, and the hours during which
they may call, Men are expressly
barred during study hours. As these
hours constitute a large portion of
the day it is to be inferred that
Jealous swains will not be approved,
More than this rule is directed
at those who call incognito,
"All callers must be announced, "
says the law,
Strays from the ranks of nobility
have been such frequent callers at
the girls dormitory that 1t is be-
lieved this rule will meet with great
disapproval on the part of the co-eds
Circumspection in hours is also
necessitated by the new regulation
which reads:

l PnbliC Necessity.

The city fathers are reminded that
Grants Pass needs posts and racks
where farmers can hitch their
teams, and at least two places where
teams can be watered. No up-to-
date city can afford to be without
these modern conveniences. Farm
ers are the life of trade and some
thing should be done to make their
visits to the city as pleasant as pos
sible. These things make friends
and draw trade. 1t is important that
we be not unmindful of the one
thing most important, and that is to
leave nothing undone that will add
to the commercial growth Of the
city. Drinking fountains for men
and beasts and hitching posts for
the farmers teams are each neces-
sary to our growth and prosperity.
True we have a drinking fountain
on Sixth street, near the old depot,
and private individual maintains
a watering trough on the corner of
G and Sixth streets, the only place
in the city where teams can get
water.
