Boosts for Stookey.

Daniel Harrington placed Or. w. NJ.
Stookcy in nomination, saying that the
int eli cctual welfare of the pupils was Of
lhuch more Consequence than the eerc-
ton or school buildings and that the
most important requisite OF a board
member WAS his Intelligence and hon
csty.
In nominating George NJ. Sullivan, Mr..
Sanford ssid that the present board Has
not entitled 10 the credit OF having given
the city an excellent school system. The
system he said, was an excellent one
when it was turned over 10 the present
beard and the present board had main
taineJ its excellence Furthermore he
said that the destiny OF the new high
school did not rest with any one man
or even With the board itself. but rather
with tho architects, the building cN

Celebration Moved.

This, OF course. put an end TO the
dance and the students again moved to
the campus. Then they decided TO uso
the Eleventh ward meeting house, The
music and the punch were moved and
the crowd marched in a body to the new
hall TO finish the celebration.
Not ali the students struck and rcGu-
lar classes were he'd. The attendance
was so small that little could be accom-
plished. Although all students were urged
10 quit classes and in some cases threats
of haircuttinc were heard, no force was
employed TO have students leave their
classes.
The belief was expressed last night
by President Gardener of the student
body that the students would be credited
with absences from their classes and that
that would be as far as the matter would
go. Acting President Merrill was appar-
emily In doubt as TO what action would
be taken by the faculty, lie said that an
investigation would probably be made.

"SoME" WEATHER.

a close has been remarkable in the
brand of weather that was handed
out. Taken on the whole the year
from the weather standpoint, of any
in the history of the state, and this
despite the fact that unreasonable
rains played hob with harvesting and
threshing.
The spring is unusually early, bright
and cheerful with long days of North
Dakota's famous sunshine. This was
followed by a delightful, cool summer
and-after the month of rain and slush
in September and part of October-the
fall was all that could be desired.
So far the winter has been unusual

out like a lamb. North DakOtans who
have gone to the far west or south to
enjoy a milder climate have missed
a most enjoyable treat.

GERMAN WIVES, ASSOCIATIONS.
How Town and Country Women Com
hine to Their Mutual Profit.


Tacoma Ledger: In the eastern part
of Germany the women Of town and
country have "Hausfrauvereine," or
housewives associations, to facilitate
the selling and buying Of country
products such as eggs, butter, fruit,
poultry and vegetables. The member
ship is composed Of both city and
country women. The advantage Of the
country women is that a good market
is furnished for their products and the
advantage to the city women is that
they can obtain products fresh from
them country. 1t is an interesting
phase of the modern activities of Wo-
men. A. NJ. Thackara, our consul gen.
cral stationed at Berlin, has made a
special report on the subject.
The housewives organizations are
now recognized force in agricultural
education. They promote poultry
breeding and vegetable raising along
scientific lines and to assist them the
chamber Of agriculture of east Prussia
has placed it's travelling lectures at
their disposal.
The first housewives association was
organized in 1898, under the direction
of Frau Elizabeth Boehn of Rasten-
burg. There are now fOrty-four asso-
Citations in Prussia and the idea is
SpISddluS III Olnef pdilS Oh GSi-
many. 1t is' bringing consumers and
producers into closer relations to their
mutual benefit and is an educational
force commanding recognition from
the government. AS d result of the
movement, five schools have been
founded for the education for young
women in practical affairs, including
cooking, hygiene, natural history,
poultry breeding and vegetable raising.
The associations maintain market
halls at which the buying members
meet the selling. Prices are fixed by
the selling members, but at the meet
ings when action is taken buying men,
bers are privileged to be present. Usu-
ally prices are set a little higher than
prevailing market prices, but the buy
ers rarely object for the reason that
they think the superior articles fresh
from the farm worth more. Eggs must
always bear the stamp of the seller.
New-laid eggs are stamped with black
or blue ink and old eggs with red.
All other articles are stamped to show
their origin.
The system establishes a better un-
derstanding between buyer and seller.
The idea is not new. though we be-
lieve the plan Of limiting the member
ship of buyers and sellers organiza-
ton to housewives is new.
The Fargo forum and daily republican., 1912-12-30
THE TRIANGULAR WAR.

The basic aim of the associations
now rapidly forming among the
American farmers and which are MAX
ing good headway in North Dakota,
is to get bigger share of the money
the consumers pay for farm products,
u share which now amounts to less
than one-half.
The aim of the Equity exchange the
consumers league and the score or 50
of other societies working in the food
buyers interest is to prevent an in
crease in the costs of food and, when
possible, to bring about a lowering in
the costs.
Between these two forces are the
transportation companies, the COM
mission men, the storage house COM
panies. the handlers and the retailers.
The farmers and the consumers each
fight but one enemy. The middlemen
must fight two. Which group will
give way?
