MAY LOSE HAND FROM RAT BITE.

MOUNT HOLLY. Aug. IA finger
of Jackson L Nippins, of Smithville,
was punctured by the teeth of a rat
several weeks ago. The wound was
slight. but the finger showed signs of
infection and had to be amputated at
the first joint. Now, instead of being
better the finger stump appears to be
affected with a sort of dry rot, and it
is believed 1t must be amputated to
save the hand and arm. Physicians
say the case is unusual.

CROPS PROMISE BETTER THAN
WAS HOPED.

Grand Forks, Aug. 1O.-Weather con-
ditions have been much more favor
able in all parts of the state in the
past two weeks and as a consequence,
there is a stronger tone of confidence
in state interviews than was formerly
noted. Some optimists estimate the
wheat yield at one hundred million
bushels. The western counties report
excellent rains which came in time to
save the fax and corn and to help
with the smaller grains. 1t seems al
most certain that next year will see
a very large increase in the corn acre
age and also other changes in crops
and methods that will eventually re-
suit in great benefit to the state.

Application will be. made for member

the new club promises to be one of
the happiest social organizations in

THE VALUE OF NORTH DAKOTA
LAND.

Minot Optic: If an acre of land in
North Dakota will produce $100 worth
of crops in a year Of crop failure
generally, how much is the land worth
for an investment?
Last year, one of the poorest years
that this country has experienced,
John J. Brand of Logan sold $1,000
worth of potatoes from twenty acres,
after getting his seed back and hav.
ing all the potatoes he desired for the
use of his family. Mr.. Brand had
two quarters of grain, which produced
practically nothing, but as result of
his potato crop, he did well just the
same.
Mr.. Brand is doing the same thing
this year. He his already sold $500
worth of 1911 potatoes, and he has
just begun to dig them. He is getting
about SO a bushel for the potatoes.
The chances are that his 1911 potato
yield will run into a much bigger
sum than what he made in 1910.
Mr.. Brand is a farmer. He does
not believe on depending merely on
one crop.

And Whv' Not erazos Too?

A wise step for our commissioners
court would be the abolition of the
office of treasurer. The Rockdale
State bank pays a nice sum for the
use of the county's money. and will
act as treasurer without costing the
county cent. Now we pay the treas
'urer about $4,000 a year, which the
banks would do for nothing, and pay
the county besides. Is there any econ
omy in such policy? Some of the
progressive counties are abolishing
this office, why not Milan? We are
clamoring for more roads. but always
are told that shortage of funds pre-
vents the building of roads. This $4,000
a year would help some This is a
question that our commissioners
should consider. 1t is not business TO

SHOULD A MAN GET MARRIED
On Eighteen Dollars Per week?
How Can Two People Live
on This Amount?

Should a man get married on SlS
week? Curious question. No more
curious than If you asked me to an
swer the question, Should a man oe'
careful in the choice of his parents
To those to whom this answer seems
involved we will make It plain. Man,
ordinary man, exercises as little con-
troll over his getting married as ne
does over his birth. He simply can't
help it. Ask those who have tried 10
interfere.
We think the one person to answer
the question, Should man get mar
ried on SIS week." is the boy who
has gone and done it. He Is an expert.
Who could tell to the dot whether
man should get married on SIS
week or on 81 week?
Well now that depends. 1t depends
on the man and on the woman. IL de-
ponds on their antecedents, the en-
vironment in which they have lived,
| in which they have been brought up.
| 1t affects the man in the city different
| ly from the man in the country IL
affects the laborer differently from the
clerk, and then the temperament or
both contracting parties enters large
| " into the affirmation or negation or
the question. Marriage Is a good
thing. and every man and woman some
time in life should marry. 1t is duty
and without it society can not exist
But again comes the all important and
often asked question, What is the in
come that will permit a man to
marry?" No man has right to tell
another how he should live. TO one
man dollar means more than II does
to another.
Ambitious careers have without end
been derailed by the attempt of two
people to live on what has been only
sufficient for one. Others have sue
ceeded better on the same income
after marriage.
When a man thinks he wants 10 get
married the whole world looks pink
to him and he thinks il Is going TO be
one rosy dream from now until eter-
nifty. And then without a thought Of
how and when and where the money
is coming from to buy wiley the new
dresses in which she looks so we'll
