Commercial Club TO
Push Potato Warehouse
COMMITTEE APPOINTED At NOON
LUNCHEON TO INVESTIGATE
POSSIBILITIES
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

(From Wednesdays Daily.)
The possibilities of building potato
warehouse in Valley City were dis
cussed this noon at the noon day
luncheon of the club, held at the Com
mercial club rooms.
The subject has been before the
club at various times in the past few
years, but the poor crops Of the coun-
ty for several seasons have made it
inadvisable to take any active steps
looking to the erection of building
for the purpose. .r.
Several of the members of the club
spoke for and against the proposition,
most of them agreeing that it would
be of benefit, not only to the business
men, but to the farmers Of the county,
although some thought the erection of
such a building should be left to the
farmers who, they claimed, would ben
eft to the greatest extent.
Following the discussion, a commit
tee consisting of E. s. Delaney, G. F.
Mudgett and Otto Zetterberg, was ap-
pointed to look into the potato situa-
ton and make a report to the club at
the next meeting.

Ia toilette As SENATOR.

The Grand Forks Times says: ANY
how LaF'ollette still has one vote and
one proxy in the Senate" This may
be intended for sarcasm, but thought
full and fairminded people are glad
that LaFollette is still a member OF
the United States Senate, where he is
and will continue to be a power for
good. Clifford Plnchot in referring to
LaFollette used these words:
81 watched his fights and saw that
he had courage. watched the legis-
lation he supported and saw that he
had common sense. I came to under
stand what he had done and saw that
he was wise. AS I got to know him
I found him as lovable as he was
strong. I began to ask his help and
when i asked I got it, both to fight
bad bills and to get good bills passed"

the crop infinitely and found it was at

he had seen in the state. ~

Herbert A. Hard of the State Ag-

day in the city with the engineering
party in charge of the Barnes coun.

There have been frequent inquiries
now to destroy the English sparrow,
received by the biological survey and
aeloW is an approved method:
Destroy nests at intervals of ten to
twelve days throughout the breeding
season. If difficult to reach, they
can be torn down by means of long
pole having an iron hook at the tip.
They sometimes nest in trees, but as
u rnle in cornices, water spouts, bird

Playing Base Ball
Teaches Loyalty
DR., HENRY CURTIS MAKES THIS
STATEMENT IN ADDRESS ON
NATIONAL GAME-SAYS GEO.
GRAPHY AND MATHEMATICS
ARE NOT so MUCH OF BOYS
MAKEUP.

Chicago, Aug. 16.-fPlaying base
ball with a regular team teaches a
boy loyalty and instills social lessons
that will affect his whole life. Com
petition with the ordinary back lot
nine will not do this. Therefore, get
the boys to work on permanent teams
and reap the benefits of organized
recreation" 49, --;,4~~ a-ss.s.I
This was the announcement on the
national game made today by DR..
Henry S. Curtis, former secretary OF
the Playground association of Amer.
lea, in lecture on play yesterday
at the university of Chicago. The
athletic authority declared the game
as played by pickup teams on vacant
lots to be much ~overrated institu'
ton because of it's emphasis on in.
dividual performance.
DR.. Curtis handed the educators
something like a shock when he de
clared that geography and mathema
tics were by no means so large part
of boys education as they are gen
orally regarded in schools. The i'm
portance of athletics as a beneficial
agent in bringing up the young is moi
realized, he declared.
Nothing in the world takes hole
of a young man like athletics" h,
said. Sports encourage clean liv
ing. The boy and the young mai
know that it is bad craftsmanship to
ward those who depend on thei
success to go out of training in sea
son. Consequently they have goo,
health and good thoughts at the sam
time.
Games, such as baseball, give tn
boy fine conception of the law. TIL
young American is getting his cor
ception of the law today largely iron
the games he PLAYS. We always hav
to teach young people to obey tn
rules when we organize a branch O
athletics in any community. TIL
rules of the game are part of th
moral law of a boy. If he break
these laws he is likely to break tn
laws of the community in which h
lives"

The cost of the survey, says Mr..
Hard, is borne by the county, state,
and United States governments. In
Barnes county the county commits
sionsers have appropriated $500 for
the work to date, the state has appro-
priated $4,000; while the government
gives twice as much as the state and
county together, in this case $4,000.

A CRISIS FOR FARMERS.

Thomas Cooper, director of tn
North Dakota Better Farming associa
! ton, believes the present year pres
ents crisis to North Dakota farmers
He says:
"The promising crop this year ma!
encourage many to trust to grain pro
duction for the future, rather than tt
change their methods of farming 81
as to make use OF other crops and tt
produce animal products. Changes il
methods Of production are brough
about slowly and often come only
when failure forces them generally in
to practice. This year is crisis IN
our agricultural development. The
question will arise on every farm
whether it pays to continue the meth
DDS now generally in use.
The better farming association in
it's campaign for better conditions be-
ieves that the production of live
stock, of forage crops and alfalfa, is
the only method by which conditions
may generally be bettered. Now is the
time when farmers should make use
of the profits from generally good
crop to finance the change in methods.
The farmers of this state are too pro-
gressive to neglect this opportunity.
During the next year many changes
for the better may be expected on the
farms.
There is widespread interest
studied in live stock. Farmers general
ly are ready to use the dairy COW, the
pig, sheep, beef cattle and poultry on
the farm and to make part of their
farm profits from live stock products.
The stock shown at the recent fairs,
especially in Grand Forks, have been
studied by many farmers in the state.
Pure bred COWS and bulls will be pur-
chased with the proceeds Of the grain
crops this year. Thinking farmers
everywhere recognize that grain pro-
duction cannot be maintained without
live stock on the farm. Farms that
feed the roughage produced and the
coarse grains to live stock are more
profitable than grain farms. The aver
age income from grain forms in the
United States, according to compiled
statistics, was $7.72 per acre, while
the average income from farms that
received a large proportion of their
receipts from live stock production
was SLAP per acre. North Dakota
farmers can materially increase their
incomes nd their profits from the farm
by the greater use of live stock.
There is no question but what beef
can be produced to advantage on the
arabic farms in North Dakota. Ou1
land is not so high in price as to make
the cost of production excessive. II

Farming association, we found farm

Fire Damages
Northern Pacific Hotel
MIDNIGHT FIRE IN LOCAL HOTEL
MAY RESULT IN INVESTIGA.
TON BY FIRE COMPANIES.

Fire, which, it is alleged, is un.
doubtedly of incendiary origin, did
about 5000 worth of damage last eve.
ming in the Northern Pacific hotel on
Third avenue south.
1t has not been learned who first
discovered the blaze, which started in
the kitchen. There were number
of boarders in the hotel at the time,
who made their escape from the
smoke which filled the building, in
safety.
According to firemen and roomers
the flames were distributed through
the kitchen and dining room of the
house, and had evidently been light
ed from kerosene, as a kerosene can
lay on the floor, while the contents
were sprinkled through the two
rooms. The cooks room is just Oh
the kitchen, and here, although sep
arated from the kitchen and dining
room, the fire had done considerable
damage. There is at present no clue
to those who started the fire. It is
thought possible that it may have
been started by some one with q
mania in that direction.
The building was covered by about
$4,000 of insurance, the furniture had
$500, and the cooks wearing apparel
and other effects were protected by a
$500 policy.
