stated that his sixteen years expert

that Christianity is worth while

ploded the common belief that Alaska
is not an agricultural country by say

ricultural products can be successfully
grown there. Bishop Rowe quoted tho
director Of the experiment station OF
Alaska as saying that the products of
her soil could feed three million peo-

Pierre.-The volunteer firemen of
the state are a long way from harmony
with the state insurance these days.
The trouble apparently started when
Insurance Commissioner BashfOrd
last spring protested against the hold
ing of the state firemen'S tournament
on the Fourth Of July, taking away
from home the firenlen who might be
needed to handle Fourth of July fires.
The feeling created by this protest was
not smoothed down in any a in
in regard to firemeu's tournaments, in
his annual report. In fact, that report
has called out a reply from some OF
the officers of the state 1iremen's as

claim that if harmony between the

was desired the meeting would have

The new agricultural movement as

Gus kinds of newspapers are often al

Moreover, if it is true hat a debt
gratitude is to be offered to the press
for disseminating facts, a double debt
of gratitude is due to an editor or a
paper that refuses to disseminate that
which is not fact. Such newspapers
not only do good by disseminating in

toiled to find out what is true today
and what will be e~ternally just tomor-
