DO YOU SING?

This is question that 'Old Bill
Holbein, secrtary of the North Da-
kota Press association has asked ev.
cry member in glaring headlines on
postcard just sent out. Mr.. Hol-
helm is arranging for a grand chorus
for the summer meeting to be hold
at Minot.
Tie only singer of any note among
the newspapermen of Minot is Dorr
Carroll. We've heard McGahan howl
once or twice. BY all means let us
arrange for that chorus. We know
there's plenty Of local talent among
the press boys. We've heard Jack
Charmley sing "How Dry Am" in a
weak but very sweet high tenor,
white Editor Richter appeared at his
best in the rendition of that touco-
ing little ditty, I'VE Won't Go Home
Till Mornin' The chorus would
make hit and we suggest that the
grand concert be given at Wildwood !.

OLD eRINDLE PAYS
THE INTEREST

81 always notice that the farmers
have paid the interest on their notes
the best where there are the most
cows and creameries,' said Frank
Chapman, state :. ank examiner "Take
the New Salem country for instance.
The farmers have raised scarcely any
thing during the past two years, yet
upon examining the records at tee
banks, find that they have been able
to meet their obligations or pay their
interest and renew their notes in
nearly every instance. The hotels at
New Salem always have a generous
quantity of fresh egs and nice rich
cream. The farmers should 60 into
dairy business as soon as possible. D
Stick by Old Brindle, for she'll pay
the interest, the principle and then
some.
Mr.. Chapman said that in driving
across country from Minot to Lans-
ford. he noticed great deal Of land
that had not vet been cropped, and
considers that the condition is quite
critical in some localities.

MUCH POOR SEED soWN.

Many farmers are going to be dis
appointed with their wheat crop this
year, we are afraid. One farmer
claimed that he knew his wheat was
good because it had withstood the rig
ors Of last fall, and altho shriveled
bit, stood q fair test. A calf that IS
born out along straw stack In Fob
ruary may have had it's ears frozen,
and still pull thru, but that calf will
never make the strong vigorous steer
that one raised amid the proper sur
roundings will. So it is with seed.
Small potatoes may produce large pc-
tatoes once, but If one continues to
plant small potatoes year after year,
he will probably finally grow nothing
but poor ones. You can't raise a
1900 pound draft horse with an 1ndian
pony mare ard scrub stallion. FAR
mers are learning to breed up seed
as they would stock.

BOY SLUNBERED
FOR FIFTY HOURS
Young Man Put to Sleep by Hypnotist
by Telephone From Bismarck SLEPT
the Sleep Of the Just for Lora
Period.

Griffeth, the hypnotist, appeared 1t
Jacobsons opera house Monday and
Tuesday nights before large crowds.
He is first class hypnotist. 1t
seems surprising the number Of peo-
pie who believe that hypnotism is all
fake. Men who have practtced the
art on their customers for years have
done so without knowing it. The
clothier who induces q customer to
buy a suit of clothes which he does
not need. when he merely went into
the store to get a red bandapa, is q
pretty fair hypnotist. The hypnotist
may not have stronger mind than
the man he hypnotizes, but he knows
how to make certain suggestions
which if considered properly by the
one who desires to be hypnotized,
places the subject under his control
perfectly Of course hypnottst
can do nothing with subject who
is not perfectly willing.
Griffeth pulled off rather unusual
stunt Saturday evening, by placing
one of his subjects, young man, IN
sound sleep and for fifty hours he
sumbered peacefully in he'd placed
in McJannet's display window. He
was awakened just before Monday
evenings show.
The subject was put to sleep by
a message Griffeth sent him from
bismarck by telephone.
Another performance was that II
young man in hypnotic condition
riding o bicycle in Roell's display win
dow for several hours Tuesday after
noon The pedals went around az
the rate of fifty miles an hour, yet
the rider stated upon being awakened
that he did not feel tired, but his
joints felt trife loose.
The county superintendent and his
deputies are marking a thousand 9Th
grade final examination papers. from
