It is an interesting fact that the two studies of arithmetic and geography often seem ,o be opposed to each other in the affections of school children. Pupils who are particularly proficient In the one are apt to be backward in the other
 A story Is told Of a youngster who was slow lG arithmetic and whose ap. parent stupidity in this field was a great source of grief to his father, g clever mathematician.
 One day when the father and son were walking out they passed place where a "learned pig was on exhibl. ton, and the father took the boy in tc see the prcdisies that the animal could perform.
 "Just look at that"' said the father, "Why, there's a pig that can count and add up numh.rs! Don't you wish yop were as Sm9vt as he?"

Club Matters.

The Commercial Club met in special
session Wednesday eveing, President
Maercklein presiding. County Super
intendent Lovell's plan for corn con-
test among the school children was
explained and very favorably received.
The plan, in brief, is for commercial
clubs and other interested parties to
offer suitable prizes for the best corn,
planted, cultivated and exhibited by
the personal efforts of Oickey county
school children. G. A. Malander, H.
j. Johnon and w. A. McCulley were
appointed as a committee to confer
with Mrs. Lowell on the matter of
prizes and contests and report at the
next meeting.
Several other subjects were inform
ally discussed among them, electric
lights and rooms for the club. The
club adjourned to meet Thursday eve
ming, March 10th, 8 o'clock, at the city
hall.

Fletcher Rules.

Some of the rules for eating, laid
down by the celebrated Massachusetts
mastication specialist, Horace Fletcher,
who spoke at Valley City last week,
are as follows:
1. Never eat unless one has an
earned appetite.
2. Always stop upon the first sense
of satisfacti IN. (That is, don't con-
tinue at the table, just because the
bird, fourth, fifth courses, and the
dessert still await you.)
3. Never swallow solids without the
most thorough mastication-following
Gladstone's dictum of 80 chews for a
bite.
4. Never swallow tea, coffee OF
milk without first holding it in the
mouth until it has become somewhat
mixed with saliva.
5. Never attempt to eat when ex
cessively weary, when worried, OF
when subjected to grief or fright
Food taken at such times is worse
than wasted.
Mr.. Fletcher presents very simpl,
philosophy of living and adduces evi
dence to support all his claims. Mr.
Fletcher is not vegetarian as man.
people think and prescribes few re
strictions to diet. Thorough masti
cation is his biggest word-and tn
doctors endorse that.

is in the form Of money or bullion, just
so it is on the market.
Let US suppose that our standard Of
value was horses and that there were
only two horses in the United States
those two horses would be very valu-
able. Now suppose that the govern
msnt should issue, what We may as
we'll call a greenback, just one, and
print upon its face-"This is redeem
abe in one horse"
Now contend that this would sub
tract nothing from the value of the
two real horses. A farmer could get
M work out of this representative
h,rse by hitching it to a plow. l also
contend that this rule will still hold
good if the government should issue a
thousand Of these green backs or any
number of them that you may wish to
name. Those two real horses would
still retain their full value. The issue
of these greenbacks might actually
increase the value of the horse, which
Of course would add to the value of the
greenbacks, in this way. Suppose that
the government, before issuing another
batch of greenbacks should decide that
it would be policy to always keep one
genuine horse in reserve to use in case
of emergency, etc., this would leave
only one real horse for the people to
use and would certainly make that horse
more valuable ard as the horse was the
standard of value the representative
money would become more valuable
! aad don't care how much there is of
it. But suppose we found where we
could get all the horses we wanted, then
there would be sudden change in the
value of our money. The money would
be cheap even if every greenback was
taken out of circulation.
This is what mean-a change in the
per capita volume has no effect on the
purchasing power of money as long as
the supply of the metal which is usec
as the standard remains unchanged.
A change in the supply of the stand
ard metal does make change in the
purchasing power of money, irrespec
tive of any changein per capita volume

Disagrees With McCumber.

On Feb. 4th 1910 Senator McCumber
made speech in the senate on the
price OF farm products. This speech
was addressed to the president but it
isn't at all likely that he cared whether
any one in the senate listened to him
or not. think he must be somewhat
worried about the coming election and
thought by making little speech in
the senate, having it printed in PAM
phlet form and distributed broadcast
throughout North Dakota he would in
duce some of the farmers of this state
to think he was doing great things for
them in Washington. am sorry he
made that speech. It will do good to
no one. 1t proves nothing and leads to
nothing but tumble Of figures. Ifear
it will be a damage to Porter. l am
sure can't vote for him until he takes
at least,a short course in political econ
omy. There are lot of mistatements
misleading statements in his speech and
it would require an article as long as
his speech to criticise them all so l will
begin on page twelve where he thinks
he has sifted out the ''four prime
causes" for the present high prices of
farm products.
Senator McCumber says:-''But let
us get at the real causes for the higher
prices of our food products. I want to
give here in very few sentences the
combined causes, for no single cause is
responsible for them.
There are four prime causes. The
first is the enormous increase in our
circulating medium, and that affects
not only farm produce but it affects
everything else, and is responsible in a
great degree for these higher prices.
The per capita circulation of the U. S.
in 1900 was about $25. 1t is today !
believe, about $38, an increase of over
60 per cent. Now every one under
stands that the value-of commodity
always responds to the quantity of the
circulating medium.
wish to say right here, Senator,
that we do not believe any such thing
and you will know more than you dc
now when you get oyer believing it,
but we will go on with the speech just
a little farther. He says "Money i.
not only the means of value of an art
icle, but it is commodity having al
inherent value, which increases and de
creases as its volume expands or con
tracts. If you have added. 60 per cen,
to your measuring sti *, how can any
I l.ene reasonably ask that the tb,n,
measured by it should be according t
the old standard and not; the nev
length? If money has increased in pc
capita volume so per cent it is nothing
more than reasonable that there shoult
be similar rise in the price Of tn,
article purchased with that money.
i Now the above argument is abso
lutely untrue, but it seems very plaus
! ible and ii will fool q lot Of people i
they don't stop to think.
], believe myself that the increase il
the supply of gold has had more to d
with the present high prices than an!
other one. thing but the increase in pc
capita volume has very little, if any
thing to do with it. AS far as the gol
is concerned it matters not whether j

Andrew White has sold the Oakes
restaurant, to P. o. Kolterman, pro-
prietor of the Oakes Bakery, who took
possession last Sunday.
Mr.. Kolterman will continue his bak-

personal charge Of the restaurant and
keep the present excellent force of
help. The place will be known as the
Oakes restaurant and will be treated
to some paint and Improvements in
honor of the change in proprletors.

small butchershop also, he would have
a complete system. For with all the
wheat, corn, beef, pork, poultry, but

a bakery and market he could feed us
to the queens taste in spite of the
soaring eastern prices and thet tighten
ing grip of the trusts.
Mr.. White has been in miserable
health the past winter which was his
reason for selling. His plans are un-
settled but he will probably take trip
soon in the hope of receiving benefit.
