Evidently North Dakota is growing
more rapidly than other communities
into which our investment money has
gone, and rapid growth means rapid
Increase in value.
3 North Dakotans, because of the fact
that they are prosperous due to- their
North Dakota Investments, are con-
stantly importuned by statesmen for all
kinds of so-called Investment PROPOSE
tons" which range from land located
in various states and countries down
through the scale to mining stocks,
wild cat Industrial stocks, oil stocks,
and many other "get rich quick pro-
positions. Hundreds Of thousands of
dollars are lost to our people every
year through these channels, which, If
invested here at home would be saved
to our state. 80 II 9.s
We believe that North Dakota money
should be invested in North Dakota;
that North Dakota men should boost
North Dakota. We believe that it is
to the interest of all of us that this
should be done. Occasionally there
may be a good Investment that might
be made aside from this, but these
cases are few and far between. YOU
local club will be glad to cooperate
with you in investigating any PROPOSE
tons that are presented to you. .Wher
salesman calls upon you, if you d.
not know of his proposition, refer hin
to your local club, and it will investi
gate the matter thoroughly, and if thu
| proposition is good one, will S,
report to yu. ...
Let us all join in a movement Il
keep North Dakota dollars in Nort]
Dakota, for the upbuilding of our owl
community and state.

THERE ARE MANY USES TO
WHICH SOUR MILK CAN BE
PUT, SAYS AUTHORITY.

At time when 80 much is seen in
print about the medicinal value OF sour
milk, it behooyes the Dakota house
wife to become an experimenter to
he extent of its frequent use on her
table, during the summer months at
least. Experimental work is usually
expensive, but in this case it is not so.
Sour milk is easily obtained on the
farms of this state and might we'll
take the place Of tea and coffee during
at least a portion of the time. 1t fur
nishes some nutrients, without the
stimulating effect Of tea and coffee.
Tea and coffee, when taken hot, add
to bodily discomfort on summer
day, and if chilled they require as
much time and expense as does the
chilling of sour milk for the same
purpose. Commercial preparations,
such as "lacto'' and "idalac' owe their
| medicinal value to the Tactic acid con-
tent and to the bacteria which, produce
this acid. Iowa Experiment Station
Bulletin No. 11S says: Science has
shown that the presence of putrefac-
tive bacteria in the intestines may be
very detrimental to health. Tactic
acid bacteria, which are entirely harm
ess, will largely replace these putre-
factive forms. Loppered milk and but
termilk will supply Tactic acid bac-
! terra" IS -..,-. .,..
The use of milk on the farm table
would necessitate keeping some milk
at home each day, and churning occa-
sionally, instead of sending all to the
creamery and buying butter. Such a
course entails extra work, but, if it
promotes good health, it is certainly
the right course TO pursue. .,.z
There are, many ways in which sour
milk can be successfully used in cook
ing, when combined with other in
gradients, as in the making Of hot
breads, etc. It is equally useful and
! nutritious as roeat substitute, in the
form of cottage cheese. It can be
!: used as a beverage, made into a pala
table soup, or formed into a pleasing
dessert. Buttermilk and loppered
milk serve about the same purpose ir
4 the diet, and are suitable for about
the same kind of dishes.

PLANTS ARE SUBJECT TO sPEcI
FIG DISEASES OF WHICH
FARMERS ARE NOT AWARE.

Is Many farmers, as well as amateur
raisers of plants, hardly realize the
fact that plants are subject to specific
diseases, just as are man and other
animals: Moreover, large number
Of farmers think that diseases which
may devastate their crops are new
things or of recent origin. Although
it is fact that some Of these dis
eases are recently imported, and al.
though It is also a fact that these dis.
leases are worse in some years than in
. other years, and apparently move over
the country in waves. yet it is also
a fact that many Of these diseases
have existed in the country as long as
the crops. 81. ... & :... a
There are two things of utmost i'm
portance in regard to plant disease;
first, the cause of a disease, and sec
ond, the conditions under which the
disease develops. The cause Of most
Of these diseases is usually a para
lite Of the nature Of a fungus or q
bacterium.S Every Il disease depends
more or less upon the weather and
other conditions surrounding the plant,
for its development. Some years we
have bad attacks Of scab on apples, or
Of rust in the grain, while othe years
we do not. In both cases we always
have the disease with us, but the
weather conditions may or may not
be favorable for the development Of
the disease. n RIFE
It is to be expected, and 1t has. been:
the experience in almost every long
settled district, that the longer crops
are grown and the more intensive,
and specialized and restricted the agriii
culture of a region the more will dis
ease accumulate. H potatoes are
grown on the same farm for. long
series Of years. diseases are bound to
Increase in number. 33s
In handling diseases, the farmer has:
two methods of protection. First, arti-
fetal preventive measures, and sec
ond, favorable weather condi tions. His
potatoes may not need spraying In
some years because ofsWeather condi-
lions which may be unfayorable to-
the spread of the disease. On the
other hand artificial methods, such as
SPRAYING. selection Of variety, etc. fftlr Fur
nisf In many cases an insurance which
the modern farmer will find absolutely
necessary for the success of his work.

THE GANG VS.. THE PEOPLE.


One of the smoothest samples of
gang politics ever worked out in any
city in North Dakota is now being
brought to a head right here in Devils
Lake.
In an effort to gain the support of
the voters at the last election the
local gang headed by their faithful
Maj(y-or McClory raised big hula
ballo for~municipal ownership of the
light and power plant and city water
works, and succeeded in holding an
election to vote bonds for the same last
fall. The voters signified their wishes
in the matter by voting for the NUM-
cipally owned plant. The people in
vested two hundred and fifty dollars
in this election, but, owing to certain
errors which were made in preparing
the ballots the matter is now in the
hands of the courts and will undoubt-
edly stay there.
So far everything has gone along
just as the gang had hoped for and
the people without the least foresight
stepped right into the baited trap that
this gang has set for them. This ring
Of corrupt politicians succeeded in pull.
Ing the wool over the voters eyes
sufficient to gain their favor and votes
at the spring election by shouting
municipal ownership. The gang did
not want municipal ownership, far be
it from that, but they did want votes
and as every one knows their little
tricks worked perfectly.
Now, after the majority of the voters
of Devils Lake have shown their pre-.
ference for a municipality owned plant
this same gang, ignoring entirely the
peoples voice on the subject, are will.
ing to let franchise to this new
company for term of thirty years.
When the facts of the whole case
are known, the gangs motive in the
whole deal can be plainly seen. First
they needed reelection last, spring, to
: get this they shouted municipal owner
4. ship. They didn't want municipal
ownership, so to do away with that
they got the ballots up in such way
as to make the election illegal and tie
it up in the courts, and the reason fol
the whole thing is that their superiors
what remains of the old Alex. McKen
zie ring wanted possession of the De
wills Lake Improvement company.
Who fought the people at the spring
election ? That's easy, the remnants
of the Hanna+McKenzie Gang assisted
by the local booze element Isn't il
strange how suddenly McClory and his
2 cohorts forgot the proposition of q
municipality owned light and power
plant when once they got back into
Office?
1t is generally understood that this
proposed new light company that is
" masquerading under the direction Of
a Mr.. Corson is none other than L. B
Hanna and few Of his political side
kicks, who as long as they have con
troll of the city council could squeeze
the citizens pocket book just as strong
as they liked.
The majority Of the citizens of De
wis Lake wanted municipal ownership
last fall, and they still want it. Viii
+ the city council continue ignoring the
E wants of the citizens of Devils Lake OF
will it continue down the path Of rule
or ruin? T.. 4s..5. .s ,... e. *.+

CHILDREN BEATEN TO WORK.
This to Keep Them Awake--Eyils of
New York Tenement Labor.

New York, Dec. Testimony OF
more than score of investigators
brought the evils of child labor in the
New York tenements in high relief at a
hearing OF the state factory inyestigat-
ing committee Thursday. Epitomizcd,
the reports were that mothers beat then
children to keep them awake when ttey
fell asleep over their needles after
working ten hours day; that it was
no uncommon sight to find children Of
four and five years making artificial
flowers; that one of three years was
found working on corset covers; that
nineteen workers were found living in a
two-room apartment; that children AZ
ficted with diphtheria and tuberculosis
and other diseases were found making
cigarettes sold to fashionable clubs,
picking nuts with fingers and hair pins
for the trade. and doing other work at
a pittance for wages.
Many Of the witnesses urged upon ihe
the need Of law to prevent
such work in the tenements.
