Oats are grown primarily for horse
feed. They are excellent also for cat
tie and sheep. They may be cut green
for hay or used In a mixture with peas
as soiling crop. At the present
time oats are q more profitable crop
in North Dakota than wheat.

CARPENTERS EXPECT
CENTRAL UNION TO
|NDORSE SCHEDULE
J
Delay in Taking Action
Thought to Be Merely to
Get Details.

Although no decision has been reached
by Central Labor Union as to the Sc
cents All hour and the forty-four and a
half week schedule put into effect by
the Amalgamated Society of Carpenters
and Joiners, it was said upon good au-
thority today that the union would
undoubtedly indorse the scale.
The question was discussed at length
al the weekly meeting of the union
in Typographical Temple last night,
but it was decided to take no
action at present. AS It has al
ways been in the past the policy of
the union to not only improve. but in
dorse higher wage scales for the diff
terent local trade organizations Ii was
pointed out today that the union would
undoubtedly follow out its usual policy
with the carpenters. The delay in TAX
ing action, ii is explained. is simply to
give the union sufficient time to go into
all the details and merits of the increase
now i'm effect.
With the exception of the carpenters
scale no other questions of importance
came up for discussion last night. The
special committee, which has been in
Vestigating the charges that desk chairs
and other furniture furnished the Dis
trict schools during the past few years
were not made of genuine cherry or up
TO the required standards, did not make
any report.
John b. Colpoys, chairman of the COM
mittee, stated that several schools were
inspected last Saturday, but that the
committee viii not make public its find
ings until all the buildings in which the
quality of the furniture is in question
have been inspected He said the COM
mittee would make another tour of in

Easy Way to Improve
Your Health
CF'rom Current News.)

Sickness and i'll health almost invari-
ably come from impurities in the blood
which, at the approach of warm weather
cause spring fever, loss of energy and
vitality, sailowness, pimples, poor appe-
system.
At small expense these disorders can
easily be corrected by taking a good,
reliable tonic. For the restoration of
energy and good health, and positive
relief from spring ailments, no better
remedy can be found than this valuable
tonic: Get an ounce of kardene and
one-hah pint alcohol at any drug store
and mix with one-half cup sugar. Whe1
dissolved add hot water to make a
quart. Take a tablespoonful before
each meal and in a short time you wiu
be surprised at the splendid health-re-
storing qualities of this old-fashioned
remedy. 1t is the best system-cleans-
ing. blood-purifying tonic known.

Shelby M. Cullom of Illinois, today ar
ranged for the funeral of William Mar
tin Malloy, the Senator's secretary,
prominent clubman of Washington and

grief. Malloy had worked with him for
ten years.

without warning in the arms of his
roommate, III. X. CruikShank, at their
apartment. His brother, Eugene NAL

Asserts Betsy Ross
Did Not Design Flag

Much interest has been occasioned
here today by the address Of Prof. John
r. Torbert, of the Geological Survey, de-
livered last night before the Women's S
Relief Corps. Department of the Poto-
mac, in which he stated that Betsy
Ross had nothing to do with designing
the American flag, but merely assem-
hled the parts and put them together
and a committee appointed by Congress
in 1Ii5 TO select A design for both a
great seal and flag for the young re-
public.
Prof. Torbcrt laid great stress on the
fact that the prevailing idea in this
country, when the flag was adopted,
was symbolism, and that Dr. Franklin
and his committee were largely guided
by this in their selection of the design
for the flag.
After the address an interesting liter
ary and musical program was given.

The confusion which arose over
the loss of the senate third reading

highway commission the power to
distribute the internal improvement

Thursday, special committee was
appointed to investigate the entire

which will be to determine wheth-

cured an attorney and has gone
over the records in the senate, but
has not secured any evidence ad-

News demands an investigation by a

came of the roll call.
Incidentally, there are few Other
things which a grand jury might vel
investigate, namely:
First. what became of the $780,
600 left in the state treasury by
Gov. Buchtel, which is all gone?
Second, why is Claude Street
drawing approximately 50. 900 veal
as state oil inspector when the law
says he shall only draw $1,000?
Third, what became of the s2l.-
600 collected during the last bien-

Fourth. Why is II necessary for
Gov. Shafroth to have n pay roll

of Gov. Buchtel and Mcdonald and
is Gov. Shafroth using that increas-
ed pay roll to boost himself for

Fifth, Why did the state land
