sweet potatoes. In regions favorable
to the growth OF the sugary brand OF
understanding factories are being or
ganized.
II canned sweet potatoes are a
source of profit-why can't North Da-
kota gain wealth and fame by canning
the Irish spuds? There is no land that
can grow 'em more easily or of finer
quality. If there is some way by
Which they could be canned-every
land owner in North Dakota has a
chance to become a millionaire.
Here 10 an opportunity for some in

But why wait on canned spuds-
North Dakota can raise vegetables of
all kinds in the greatest profusion-
and with yields that would make an
eastern gardener green with envy. No
other section Of the country offers such
opportunities for certain kinds Of cam
neries. There seems to be no reason
why canneries could not be establish
ed in this state with great success.
Where could tomatoes, beans, peas,
and many other vegetables be grown

The following editorial:
A judge in North Dakota who

vorce alimony pending the decision of
the suit, has started a swelling chorus
of ordinations at woman's risk in
seeking full equality before the law.
Look, they cry to her, before YOU lean.

you are made to pay alimony to worth

There are many women In the business
world, In factories and other lines of
Industrial employment, who are sun
porting worthless husbands. AS the
case stands they could be divorced
without the payment of alimony, be-
cause Of the legal fiction that the man
must always be the responsible head of
a household. Investing women with
full legal equality, and full legal re-
sponsibility might make them tech

FOR M'NAMARA's VICTIMS.


1t is reported that much of the fund
raised by the labor unions for the de-
Tense of the McNamaras remains un-
expended. It would be a difficult mat
ter to return this to the contributors
and the amount would not be large to
any individual.
1t has been suggested that the labor
leaders of the country could score
great hit by turning over the remain
ing money to create fund for the sup

sETrER ROADS.

/ Barnes township in Cass county,
near Fargo. gained the reputation dur
ing the past summer of having the best
graded roads Of any township in the
state. The supervisors were wide
awake men. Last spring they hired a
man and team and kept them on the
roads all summer. The results more
than indicated their enterprise and
judgment.
The Fargo Auto club kept men and
teams at work on several roads out
of Fargo. Similar action was taken
by many other auto clubs over the
state. In this manner many miles Of
good roads were maintained.
The success of Barnes township has
led many others to consider the prop
osition for next year. 1t is claimed
that by using the road tax in that
manner-much better results can be
obtained than in any other way. Not

OF so they win shed water.
In many townships-in addition to
the road tax funds--prominent farm
ers and especially auto owners would
contribute to the good cause. II one
live man in each township would take
up the proposition it is easy to see
what great results could be accom-
plished.
The funds from the auto licenses.
the special road taxes and the con-
tributiohs could be profitably expended
In, this manner. In a short time the
roads Of the state would be improved
to such an extent auto riding would be
. .pleasure-and the farmers could get
their produce to market much more
easily and cheapIy.
