TRUNK PROTECTION.

Common carriers are liable for the
full value of the baggage OF passengers
--even when the baggage is carried
free--according to recent decision OF
the appellate division of the New
York supreme court.
1t was contended by the railway
company in the case in question that
only $3.50 could be collected for lost
trunk-because it's tickets state that
the railway will assume no greater
liability. In spite Of the fact that the
passenger did not state his lost trunk
was worth more than $3.50. the court
held he could recover the actual value.
At this time Of the year-when
trunks are issuing daily from homes
all over the country, and the railway
and steamship lines have great traf-
fic bound for Europe and the summer
resorts--travelers are especially in
terested in baggage liability. The
New York decision will be welcome
news to many travellers who are ac-
customed to carrying expensive ward
robes and part with their trunks pray
erfully every time they are turned
over to a transfer agency.

Speaker Hanley of the North Dako-
Ia house of representatives was in
town yesterday attending the sessions
of the federal court. where some Of his
Indian clients in land case was up
before Judge Amidon.
He was seen for few moments at
the Gardner hotel at the luncheon hour
and was talking about the various
good times he had during the recent
legislative session, and some OF the
hard fights made on the floor Of the
lower house chamber, which were real
battles while they lasted.
The speakers mind was refreshened
with an incident when Attorney Cen
eral Miller was quoting some poetry to
a few friends gathered about him in
the capitol corridor to illustrate a
point In his conversation. From the
way he commented upon II, 1t was
believed Captain Hanley was not over
awed by the great words Of the attor-
ney general.
"You don't seem to be impressed by
the poetry Mr.. Miller quoted in his
remarks, captain"
mo-" replied Mr.. Hanley, "he's at
tempting too much. It's enough to
guide peoples ideas in politics with
out attempting to regulate their taste
in poetry"

oLn GLORY.

Just another story; just another song
OF the Flag Of Glory, to the mighty
throng.
How the children love it; how their
faces shine
There's no Flag above it; 1t is theirs
and thine.
Torn to shreds it glistens in the fra
grant breeze,
As the young heart listens to its
victories
Told by men who placed il far above
the strife
Glad he is he raised DER his peaceful
life.
When you're sad ana gloomy, still that
Flag above.
Starry bright and bIoomy, radiates its
love.
DON'T believe the story Of your coun-
try's fate.
Far above. "old Glory" guides the
"ship Of State"
Let the children ind IT every day and
year;
Let it's history bind it to their
memories clear
They will do their duty when you pass
away,
Raise its unstained beauty, as you did,
yesterday.

ICE CREAM CANS
MUST BE WASHED
PROF. z. r. L;ADD ISSUES A WARN
ING TO ALL DEALERS IN DAIRY
PRODUCTS AND ICE CREAM
MANUFACTURERS AND USERS
coNcERNIN1 CLEAN CANS.

The following warning has been is
sued by Prof r. f. Laid:
The inspectors are making general
complaint that proper attention is not
being given, on the part Of many to
proper cleanliness in the handling OF
dairy products; that many Of the cans
and containers In which milk, cream
and particularly ice cream is shipped
are not properly cleaned and sterilized;
that cans having been used for milk
and ice cream are returned without
being properly washed and cared for,
thus rendering the use of these re-
ceptacles dangerous to public health.
! quote from the sanitary inspection
law:
"Unclean, unhealthful and unsani-
tary conditions shall be deemed to ex-
list IL food in the process Of manufac-
ture. preparation, packing. storing, sale
or transportation is not securely pro-
tected from flies, dust, dirt and as far
az may be necessary by all reasonable
means from all other foreign and in
furious contamination; and il the re-
fuse, dirt and the waste products sub
ject to decomposition and fermenta-
ton, incident to the manufacture, pre-
paration, packing storing, selling, dis
tributing and transporting of food, are
not removed daily; ." and lie the
clothing OF operatives, employees, clerks
or other persons therein employed is
unclean."
This department holds, therefore,
that the returning of cans not properly
washed and cleaned is in direct viola
ton of the food and sanitary law.
Parties failing to comply with the
provisions of the sanitary law are liza
Bile to prosecution. Complaint win be
lodged with the states attorney
wherever manufacturers, dealers,
transportation companies or consumers
return cans or containers not properly
cleaned.

DOES not Want
CROPS DOOMED
NORTH DAKOTA FARMERS THINK
THE PAPERS OF THE STATE
SHOULD NOT PLAY UP THE
GOOD CROPS, BECAUSE 1T WILL
TEND TO LOWER PRICES.


1t is difficult many times to decide
just what shall be published in news
paper. II is impossible to please all
readers. Most people believe they could
conduct a newspaper better than the
publishers, The editor, however. gem
orally welcomes consistent criticism,
and tries to profit by the same.
Readers Of The Forum will be inter-
ested in the following letter from a
well known farmer in the southern
part of the state, whose name is
omitted:
Barney, N. D.. June 9.-To The
Forum: Allow me to call attention
to the items in The Forum concerning
prospects for a bumper crop In North
Dakota. Last year we only had from
ave to thirteen bushels per acre when
these reports OF large prospective
Yields go out. the farmers cannot fix
the price at harvest time. We farmers
have talked this matter over many
times, and we know that the wheat
spectators are watching these reports
day and night. We farmers think that
such reports should not be put in the
papers at all; wait until the threshing
is done and then make the report
THE crop certainly looks good--as
fine as we had in 1895; still we have
not gotten It yet, and there are many
dangers which may attack the crop be-
fore IL can be harvested. The wheat
kings take every advantage Of us and
fix prices without regard to the cost
of production"
This correspondent is honest, and
from his point of view the advice is
undoubtedly good, but would this
course be best for the state? The crop
was light last fall. Many farmers had
to buy seed and feed this spring; some
OF them did not have the money to pay
for these expenses If crop prospects
had not been good the local banks
would not have been able to secure the
funds to help out these farmers.
| Then, again, the grain men keep
thoroughly posted on conditions not
only through the newspapers, but in
many other ways. False reports do not
deceive them.
Is 1t not best for all interests--and
especially the farmers-that honest re-
ports are promulgated-the actual
facts given - whether favorable or
lotherwise, as concerns the prospects
of the crops during the growing sea-
son, and later the actual results OF the
harvest be published?

and how to apply them. In fact they
are wanted wherever the sciences will
advance the great business OF agricul-
ture. The salaries range all the way
from $1,000 to $4,000, according TO
ones efficiency, energy, ability and
experience
What Colonel Miner says regard
ing the situation in Texas is even
more true OF North Dakota. This
state ID one Of the most exclusively
agricultural in the union and it affords
more opportunities for bright young
men along scientific farming lines.

lege are doing a great work. They

WHEAT PRICES.

Commenting on the wheat situation,
The Minneapolis Tribune says editor
tally:
Notwithstanding the sharp decline in
wheat prices, farmers have sown he
largest area for the 1911 harvest ever
recorded. The stimulus of high prices
which resulted In the increased acre
age following the advance in 1908 and
1903 has not been affected by lower
level.
Even at the present market there Is,
undoubtedly. considerable profit in
raising wheat. The government re-
Gently compiled data from 5000 reports
which showed the average cost to be
SIS cents a bushel covering the year
1908, In Minnesota the cost was
shown to be 81 cents, in South Da-
kota and North Dakota So cents a
bushel
These figures may seem low and are
under the popular notion based on the
higher cost OF material and labor to
the farmer. The government explains
that the yields per acre which were
reported by the correspondents were
higher than the average, and adds that
1t was probably because they were bet
ter farmers. This would give them a
lower cost per acre, of course, than
their less scientific competitors.
The readjustment in the wheat mar
ket, however, has not brought prices
below level which few years ago
represented wild, bullish speculative
imitation. The large accumulations of
supplies the world over and the re-
stricted demand does not suggest that
a close balance has been reached be-
tween supply and demand. Instead of
declining lately, however, the market
has advanced, but the strength has
been the result of congested holdings
of cash wheat in Chicago and the ex-
tremely hot weather over the winter
wheat fields at the critical period OF
the plant growth.
While the June promise, based on
the governments yields per acre, which
allows for normal deterioration be-
tween now and harvest, is for the
largest wheat crop produced. the spec-
ulative trade win be more responsive
to abnormal weather and the liability
Of greater damage to the growing
grain.
