Red Cross Christmas seals date back

After the, war, this method Of raising

the plant and the contractors work.

For the last decade Fargo has always

dons--despite the frequent preliminary
mistakes regarding bond issues--and
other difficulties
Handicapped in the past because OF
its poor water supply Fargo could not
offer prospective investors and home
seekers the inducements they could
secure in other localities. The ques-
ton of water supply was one that ap-
pealed readily to the newcomer. When
he learned Fargo was weak In that re-
speet he moved on somewhere else. In
the future this drawback will be en-,
tirely overcome and Fargoans car,
point with PRIDE to the pure water
that is served through its mains.
Many people would rejoice greatly
IL there was some method OF sanitary
treatment for the mains before the Al.
trated water was turned in.
There will be one distinctive feature
OF Fargo life missing next spring. The
people viii no longer be able to secure
those famous mud baths that have
been characteristic for many years.

HIGH FOOD PRICES.

Farmers get FOR their food products
less than so per cent OF the price ac-
tualiy paid by the ultimate consumer.
why? VINO gets the rest?
Secretary Wilson's annual report in
dicates that the cold storage man is
doubtless responsible to large ex-
tent for the exorbitant prices Of food
stnfs.
stu, an investigation on the part of
the department of agriculture revealed
the fact that the long storage Of food
stuffs is the exception, rather than the
rule--and generally results from llti-
cation or some other unforeseen cir
cumstances which makes it impossible
TO dispose Of the products earlier.
AS q rule the secretary of agricuI-
tpre says, receipts into cold STORAGE
warehouses are exhausted by deliver
les within ten rnonths--and the excep-
ton is generally brought about by
some uncommon incident.
Butter and eggs are believed by the
department to have been affected more
BY storage than any other articles Of
food An examination Of the market
quotations and market conditions has
persuaded the secretary or agriculture
that warehousemen should be required
tosmake report to Washington every
month az to the amount Of butter
ana eggs they have in storage. BY
this means the public would be able to
judge as to the future trend OF the
market. and protect itself against mar
ket manipulation.

MEDICINAL LEAVES
AND HERBS.

The department OF agriculture has
just issued a bulletin on leaves and
herbs used as medicine. Nor is this
the first publication put out by this
department on the subject of medicines
the others being Weeds Used as
Medicine, Root Drugs, and Medicinal
Banks.
Collectors OF medicinal plants have
made such insistent demands on the
department for guide in their work
that a description OF thirty-six nedi-
cinal plants, including only s,fch as
are IN most common use, has been pre-
pared by direction Of the secretary, If
teen of these being mentioned in the
eight decennial revision OF the IT. s..
Pharmacopoeia.
Each plant is listed under the name

ing the plants familiar to him, or in
identifying an unknown one, IL OF the
series, from the description given.
Perhaps the best known plants in
cluded in this bulletin are peppermint
and spearmint, which are not only
found Ia the wis state. but are also
cultivated for the distillation OF oil. an
important American industry. Witch
hazel. almost household word lis
found in low, dASnp woods from New
Brunswick to Minnesota, and south to
Florida and Texas. The soothing prop
critics Of this plaWt were known to the
Indians. and Ii Is still employed for
the relief OF infiHmatory conditions.
Wintergreen il described as having
stimulant and antiseptic properties,
though its chief use seems to be as
havoring agent.
Hurehound, one of the best known
domestic remedies for colds, has a wide
range, being fosind from Maine to
South Carolina, Texas, and westward
to California and Oregon. Jimson
weed, q common weed in field and
waste places, il found almost every
where except in the north and west.
The dried leaves are frequently smok-
ed or the fumes inhaled as d remedy
for asthma. CAtnip, Familiarity assoc
ciated with tea for babies is de-
scribed as a common weed raturalizeu
from Europe. 1T is noted for its quiet
ing effect on the nervous system.
Boneset Is another familiar plant in
many households, the leaves and tops
OF which form an old and popular
remedy in the treatment OF fever and
ague. PennyroyA1. aside from its vaaue
as an aromatic stimulant, has an odor
which is very repulsive TO insects,
ana is therefore rauch used for keep
ing away mosquitoes and other
insects.
Among the other plants. not in such
common uss, mentioned in this paper
are fcxgiove, gam plant, busleweed.
balmony and skuslcap. Tansg, worm
wood, firewsed and fioabane are de-
scribed IS furnishins useful oils.
