,lioaded For Economy.

A fireman was up for examination
for promotion to the position Of engi.
neer. He passed fair test on the
rules and machinery. but during all
Of it the examiner was constantly lee
turing him as to the need of economy
in the use Of fuel and oil. 80 that by
the time he finished his examination
1t was pretty we'll on his nerves. Hav-
ing finished the technical part, the ex-
aminer thought he would put the man
in a critical position to see what be
might do in an emergency. So he put
this question: "Supposing you are the
engineer Of freight train on single
track. and you are in danger Of a head.
on collision with a passenger train.
and you know that you could not stop
your train-that a collision could not
be ayerted-what would you do?' The
man. unstrung by the vigorous In.
struction he had received as to econ
omy, replied in this way: why. I
would grab the oil can in one hand
and lump of coal in the other and
jump."-Atchlson Globe.

as fuel. 1t means cheap fuel. When
one thinks of the Transformation, the
revolution which has taken place in
heat producing materials it, too, will
cause him to marvel. From buffalo
chips to Ignite coal.
Few people realize what cheap fuel
means to a community or a state.
1t gave to Pennsylvania her iron and
steel mills, her wealth and population.
AS an agricultural factor the Key
stone state cuts but small figure,
but as a fuel producing state she
stands at the head of all the states in
the Union.
In addition to her agricultural ad-
vantages North Dakota has even q
cheaper fuel than Pennsylvania can
boast Of Cheaper because it is cas-
Ter mined. Cheaper because it is not
controlled by profit exacting corpora
lions. Cheaper because it belongs to
the national government and is for
the use and benefit of all the people.
1t does not require very far.seeing

OCTOBER a Will. Be !;
TRAVELLING MEMS DAY
Y. c. 7. BOYS WILL NOT HAVE
FULL CHARGE OF THAT DAY.
Every Commercial Traveller In tho
State ls Urged to>ee In Exposition
CITY and to Join In Fun. NJ

There seems to have been a genera
Misunderstanding regarding the date
October IA, which has been set aside
by the management of the North Da
kota Industrial Exposition for the
travelling men OF the state. It has
been announced in several articles
which have appeared in the state press
that this Is U. c. T day.
While the members of the United
Commercial Travellers organization
are working hard to help make the
day a success, the day Is not theirs
exclusively. The day has. been set apart
for the entire travelling world, and
every knight Of the grip with his
wife, sweetheart and friends is invited
to come to the Exposition City on that
occasion and Join in the merrymak
ing. The official designation Of the
day is "Commercial Travellers Day."
So a member Of the I. c. NJ. A., I. S.
T. M. A. and kindred bodies are just
as welcome as the members Of the u.
c. T. Also the traveller who has not
affiliated with any organization is
every whit as welcome as he who be.
longs to them ALL
Everyone who knows travelling men,
and that should include nearly every
residen+ of the state, knows that they
are a bunch of live wires, when it
comes to making special success OF
anything. The boys of the road &have
decided emphatically to make their
day one of the biggest and best of the
entire exposition, and October IA will
be one Of the red letter days of the
big Industrial show. Surprises galore
are up the sleeve of he committee in
charge, and they will be sprung at q
later date.

mind to foretell what these condi.
tons are going to give to North d.
kota in the near future. North d.
kota with her fields of grain and
grasses. her great waterways, her
abundant fuel supply lying right at
the touch of man her progressive and
intelligent citizenship, all the ele-
ments that invite wealth and popu.
lation.
The flag follows the smoke. There
is no gainsaying this. 1t was there
soon after the campfire Of the white
man was kindled on North Dakota's
plains. It came with the vapors OF
the locomotive and it is coming with
the smoke of the mill and factory.
North Dakota undoubtedly has her
underlying oil and gas, awaiting the
invitation of the driller. She has rich
clay and mineral deposits awaiting
development. Samples of North Da,
kota made brick will be on exhibition
at the big exposition, specimens of
earthenware and pottery are also
there, showing the possibilities along
these lines, illustrations of what may
be accomplished in briquetting. These
exhibits will prove an educating fac.
tor to the people OF North Dakota and
not alone to the visitor from abroad.
It is the development of these valu.
able resources which build great CIT
les. There is room in North Dakota
for many more brick plants. The de.
mand for paving brick alone will keep
many yards busy for years to come
to say nothing of the beautiful blocks !;
of earth prepared for building ma
terial. Briquetting factories are
bound to multiply as the demand for
the product increases.
This state is the natural location
for the oatmeal mill, the fax fibre
plant and the condensed milk factory.
Creamery butter may be produced
here, with the product from the wide
cattle ranges to supply one-half the
United States, and at a much less
cost of production should be in oper-
alton in every county. All these
things will come with future develop
ment and the big industrial exposition
Is the one great factor calling atten.
ton to these wonderful possibilities.

WHEAT YIELD BETTER

JULIUS MEYER OF BALDWIN
AVERAGES TEN BUSHELS

Yields Of Other Farmers Of That Com.

With Some a Little Higher.

julius Meyer of Baldwin was in tho
city yesterday, and seemed well
pleased with the crop conditions In
and around his home.
Mr.. Meyer owns 10 acres Of wheat
near Baldwin and when he threshed
he received LOGO bushels Of excellent
wheat, making an average Of nearly
10 bushels to the acre. He has a gaso.
line threshing outfit and Is now thresh.
ing for his neighbors, who are getting
a good average also.
While this cannot be called bump

There was held in the McCabe Meth
odist church Tuesday night the fourth
quarterly conference Of that church
organization, DR.. s. A. Danford, dis
trict superintendent, presiding. The
various routine duties of the year were
carefully examined and the reports Of
the different boards and societies were
considered and acted upon. The
growth in membership was considered
excellent and the financial affairs Of
thr church greatly improved.
There has never been a year in the
history of this church when there has
been closer and more harmonious
work of the official board than of the
conference year Just closing.
There were two especially interest
ing events of the. evening that are
worthy OF consideration. One was tho

went to work to try to have the North
Dakota annual conference, which
meets at Grand Forks next month, ap
point ]. P. Jackson as q lay delegate

will convene in May, 1912, and the
unanimous and urgent request with
which the board urged upon the dis.
trict superintendent and the bishop
to return Dr. A. Lincoln Shute to this
charge for the coming year.

WILL, ADDRESS GATHERING
insurance CommIssioner Taylor leaves
for Jamestown.


Insurance Commissioner Taylor lett
this afternoon for jamestown where
he will address meeting tonight
called by the state fire prevention
association. Commissioner Taylor
takes great interest in insurance
matters and his address will be inter-
esting and instructive. The objects
of the association are to educate the
people in the matter of preventing
fire losses. It is subject in which
all the people feel a deep interest,
and one in which the insurance COM
panies are lending their hearty sup
port. A decrease of five losses in the
state, better equipment for fighting
the destroying element, and a general
education along thse lines will tend
to reduce insurance rates.
