FOOTBALL PRACTICE.
High school Players Begin seasons
Wor.-


The boys who hope to land places on
the high school football team have
lined up and will begin working out
soon.
This is the first move and the show
ing made by the individual lads will
soon be summed up and the team Sc
lected. Doubtless the form shown by
the prospective members will depend
much upon their equipment.
Some idea of the best and neces-
sary equipment, including pants with
either cane or fibre padding; head
gear, ranging in price from 81 to S.
shoes with heavy soles, also the light
srrinter soles for fast work, and shin

II am amazed and delighted with
the displays of North Dakota prod
Gets at the exposition" said Prof.
Thomas Shaw, the celebrated Mime
SOFA agricultural expert and instt-
tute lecturer, who arrived last night
and lectured in the auditorium this
afternoon.
"One of the amazing features is the
effort put forth by residents of the
different counties under present con-
ditions to gather such products and
so tastefully arrange them in the diff
ferent booths with the immediate
financial reward offered in the way
of prizes," continued the gentleman.
1T is next to marvellous. l speak not
only from the quality but the quan-
tity as we'll. do not hesitate to
say that many of the exhibits excel
those of the Minnesota fair and they
speak we'll for North Dakota.
Another feature which struck me
as next to marvellous, and it will i'm
press anyone familiar with conditions
the same way, is the fine display Of
corn. The exhibits will convince any
beholder that North Dakota is a corn
state. The magnificent display Of
wheat might have been expected, but
not the variety of winter wheat
shown. And in roots and grasses the
display is truly amazing. In every
booth samples of corn are shown as

crops are the saving ones for the
country, for they. not only yield rich

truly a revelation and increases my
faith in North Dakota as winter
wheat state In every booth will be
found samples of winter wheat and
of such quality as to convince the
most skeptical that this crop may be
successfully and profitably grown
here. I cannot dwell too long on the
subject of corn cultivation. In fact
my astonishment at what is shown
here has been too great to give time
for analysis. am going to visit each
booth again during my stay here and
talk with the men in charge. l am
greedy for more information; I want
to learn howvthe great work has been
accomplished. thought knew
North Dakota pretty well and was
familiar with all her resources, but
these exhibits from so many obscure
and remote hooks and corners Of the
state have convinced me that l have
yet much to learn about your great
commonwealth.

astounded and overwhelmed with
what l have found here and desire
to compliment the state on its Indus

made it what it is. Its value is be-
