The tuberculosis Sanatoriun

Official announcement is made boy
Governor Vessey that the new state
sanitorium for the treatment of tube r
culosls, at Custer City, is now ready
for the reception of patients. The
new state institution is up-to-date in

competent superintendent who is a
skilled physician. The sanatorium is
surrounded by fine tract of land, and
the location is declared TO be ideal for
the purpose. 1t is a matter for con-

her share to join in the general fight
against the white plague. Those inter

factories which are being located at
points through the western half of the

operations. While the caring for dairy
herds takes more work than the care
of beef cattle on the range, their milk
means a steady income the year around
and not expense all the year but in the
shipping months, with the returns at
that time alone.

ELECTRICITY ON THE FARM.

There Is promise for the future of
an extraordinary expansion in the use
of electricity on the farms of the conn
try. The American Society Of Apr,-
cultural Engineers, in a recent ses-
sion at Lafayette, Ind, discussed the
subject at great length. The general
opinion was expressed that there was
abundant promise Of a wide and sue
esssful application OF electricity TO
farm uses.
The farmer is large user of power.
For many generations he has used the
most expensive form of power--that
furnished by horses. Until recently his
unfamiliarity with power apparatus
and the manufacturers unfamiliaritv
with farm needs-stood in the wav Of
adapting modern methods OF power
production to farm uses. This diff
Guilty is now in the way to be over
come.
Several central stations have been
established recently in Illinois-fron
which electricity Is being sold to farm.
ers at the same rates which prevail in
towns The day is apparently at hand
when an abundant supply Of electric
power will be available for farmers,

DR.. Max Batt-who Is he? Well,

they go to the Grand theatre Sunday

head of one of the classic departments
at the North Dawota Agricultural COL
lege. president of the North Dakota
Librarians association, member of
several other things, boomer, lecturer,
and chief mogul OF the Grand Free
Lecture association. He is the man
who comes out after the orchestra has
finished its little concert, and tells
you about the splendid programme for
the evening and the ones for several
future Sundays, and then just drops a
remark which informs you that it is
not courteous to leave the theatre with
out leaving your contribution in--the
basket, not your pocketbook.
And in spite Of the professors many
arduous duties he finds time for a lit
tie amusement of his own. He has a
little fiat, known as his bachelor home,
in one OF the city's bsst fiat buildings,
where he whites away his idle mo-
ments.
Music is one of the charms that fills
DR.. Bats whole heart and soul. In
fact that is the reason that there are
SO many successful musical program

Sunday nights.

MARRIAGE LAWS.

Since Adam and Eve hooked up II
has been an easy matter to get mar
ried. Marriage has had the endorse
ment of the religious organizations
time-custom-and convention.
Half baked youths with trace OF
gosIing down on their upper lips lead
giggly girls to the altar and neither
have any more conception of the SOL
emnity Of the act-than a mooley COW.
Regulation of marriages has never
been popular The institution has been
enshrined on a sacred pedestal and re-
garded as too holy for dissertation. In
the popular mind marriage covers a
multitude Of sins-and II does.
A proper marriage is one Of the CIV
ilization's greatest institutions. 1t is
the standard of measure for morality
the fitting climax to the association
Of the sexes-the foundation of do
mestic happiness-the basic principle
Of honorable parentage-and in every
way necessary. But IT should be
along proper principles.
Sociologists and reformers have used
up their energy in reforming divorce
laws. They have been working wrong
end to. Instead Of reforming the eff
feet they should remedy the cause
and try to regulate marriage. Then,
perhaps, there will be less COM
plant Of the divorce court business
and fewer divorces.
While people regard marriage with
veneration-it does not as a part of
the conventionslities Of life, possess
any sanctity. It's reformable.
There is a bill in the North Dakota
legislature to require people who wish
TO marry to prove they have the proper
mental and physical characteristics to
make them desirable fathers and
mothers. Senator Overson's measure
is radical-but it possesses many mer-
itorious features.
There is no logical objection to pro-
hibiting persons, male or female, from
joining the army of those seeking to
perpetuate the human race-unless
they are fit. They should be made to
satisfy society that they are not men
tally defective nor physically diseased.
This kind Of reform is slow. The
people hesitate to take radical action. |
There has been little change for a
century. In the meantime the number
of detectives, degenerates, dwarfs and
human wrecks Unreasonable the asy- |
lums for the insane are packed to the
bursting point.
Senator overson's bill would cali a |
halt in criminal marriages. 1t would |
prevent many ignorant and vicious
unions.
OF course those who could not marry |
under the laws of North Dakota might |
go to other states to have the cere- |
mony performed many miscege- |
nations would be prevented. Trips TO
other states for the purpose of mar
riage would soon come to be regarded |
in the proper light.
The state of Washington has made
successful test OF law similar to |
that Of Senator diversion.

with a voice and real comedian who
could deliver the goods in every way
unusually good dancing were some OF
the features that helped to make Miss
Nobody From Starland popular hit
last night. The Fargo operahouse
management had sold standing room
and there were a lot of people who
felt glad to have seen the performance

The production is unique in many
respects. The way the passengers
from the ocean steamer debarked
down a gangway through one of the
aisles of the theatre was something
decidedly novel, but the second act
showing the back OF stage with the
scenery wrong end to was a greater
hit
Olive vail is an attractive leading

Ralph Riggs was I1ardworked man

BERTHE Beaumonte as Nina, the
Italian girl, was one of the marked
successes. She sang well, but her
dancing in the last act was her fea-
ture work

to say that it was certain that tongue
thick with liquor must balk at it.
But every night Mr. DeAngelis gets
away with it without a break but the
beauty girls who are with him and who
have to join in the chorus are getting
so they can hardly talk without lisp.
Here is the chorus If you think it's
easy, just try to read it fast:
