"and when we were not bothered in

fact that labor was scarce. Since the
weather in a measure has settled we
have made. great progress and the
work of ballasting is going along all
right now. We haul the cars over a
switch from the Great Northern right
on to the new line and from there
the gravel is distributed wherever
needed. AS soon as We get this done
we will begin the work of stringing

W. w. King, secretary and manager
of the North Dakota Retail Merchants

from a ten days visit to his farm out
near Tower City, where he had the
pleasure of seeing his threshing all
done and was more than pleased with
the results.

we were short the greater part of the

three days, another time I went into

engine and managed to get along all

During the period that we were
threshing we again became short of
men and / went to the high school
out our way and the principal let
off five of the larger boys to help us
out, giving them their marks while
they were in the fields.
MY neighbors had about the same
kind of experiences, but thank heaven,
we are all just about getting through
with it, ".'
Il understand, though, that UP in

about the new Fargo Surrey line there
is a very large amount of grain yet

ROOSEVELT WON'T
CARRY one STATE
THAT is THE STATEMENT BRYAN
MADE IN FARGO IN A PRIVATE
CONVERSATION YESTERDAY
1T is EVEN MORE RADICAL
THAN REPUBLICANS CLAIM.

How many states will Roosevelt
carry in November" was a question
asked William Jennings Bryan yester-
day by a Fargo democrat.
Not a single state" was Bryan's
reply.
The local democrat expressed great
establishment at the statement by the
Nebraskan, and asked him what would
happen in California. .~
Roosevelt won't even carry Cali
fornia," continued Mr.. Bryan. "The
bull moosers attempted to steal the
republican organization there, but they
did 1T in such a manner they have an
tagonized every real republican. The
latter have been disfranchised, as far
as their party goes. They blame it on
to Roosevelt. Ny advices are that the
republicans will unite with the demo-
Gratis and vote for Wilson electors.
Not even the fact that johnson is a
vice presidential candidate from Cali
fornta can save Roosevelt in that state.
Il can't figure out state he will
carry He may be second choice in
a number but l don't believe he will
win in one and the talk of his election
is simply preposterous.' .r.
Mr.. Bryan's opposition to Mr.. Roose-
welt has undoubtedly led him into
making a very radical statement. 1t
would seem impossible that Roosevelt
cannot carry a state. Even, his bitter
est republican opponents--while never

for milk, and the duty on It," said
Mr.. Jackson to The Forum. What
especially those in the northern end
of the valley, are overlooking in this
matter! They could ship thousands
Of gallons of milk daily to Winnipeg.
Instead they are sending only a few
occasional cans to Minneapolis.
The same old fight by the central
fzers against the creamerieS is being
carried on in North Dakota that has
been or Is being waged in other states.
AS soon as the creameries are killed

is quickly reduced.

WOMAN HAS CLEVER SCHEME
Matter What Their Color, Are

At one Of the debutante teas the

GUS dressing, tore her gown so badly
that repair was necessary. A friend
accompanied her to her room to sit
and chat while the mending was 60
ing on. The maid brought out sew
ing case filled with needles threaded
with silks and cottons of all colors 1t
took but a moment to select the re-
Quired color and the repairs were
quickly made. The guest thereupon
remarked on the advantage of having
threaded needles ready at hand. The
hostess proudly admitted that this was
her own brilliant idea, as it made her
nervous to see a maid try and try
again for a needle eye when she was
hurried She says she not only has n
stock OF needles threaded in black and
white, but on the day colored frock
is worn needles are threaded in that
color and placed in the workbasket.
IT takes only few minutes on bright
day to thread needles and the system
really saves time, eyesight and, most
precious of all, patience.

PROFIT MADE in
CULTURE OF FISH
Caro- Need Not Interfere With
Other WORK on Farm
Tanks Must Have
Clean Gravel.

To make a success in fish culture,
the tanks must be provided with clean
gravel and the bottoms raked once a
week. If the tanks are disturbed by
fish hawks, bull frogs, mink or other
pests, place strips OF board across
the tank and cover with wire netting
that can be removed when cleaning
The food will scatter through the
wire.
When the tank is ready to receive
the fry, order from q commercial fish
hatchery 10000 speckled, square-tail-
ed, brook trout fry that will cost from
So to $5 per thousand, according to
age. For four weeks after Matching
no feed will be necessary. Nature pro-
vides a sack for fry TO first con-
sumo. For the next six weeks skim
med milk curd may be fed three times
day; after that sheep and pigs liv-
er, poultry waste cut fine, or q COM
mercial food made in the form Of a
meal containing fish and grain, at a
low cost. This should be fed to the
fish the same as poultry is fed.
Supposing the cost of tank and fry
is $50 and cost of feeding $25, to-
tai of SIS, and 5000 OF the 10000
fry grow to fingerlings the first sea-
son. BY September the fingerlings are
worth $25 per thousand, and will find
ready sale if put on the market.
The producer has left the tank and
$50 above the cost, with a chance to
save many of the other 5000 fry not
reckoned. There are no fertilizer
bills to pay, no spraying of trees, no
waiting year for returns, no work
ing in the hot sun killing weeds--just
lot Of wholesome fun that need not
interfere with other work on the
farm.
