MACARONl EATERS
ALWAYS HEALTHY

Some OF the healthiest men and
wome in Fargo are great eaters OF
minnesota macaroni and spaghetti.
Many people who never cared for these
foods before + delighted with the
rich, nut-like flavor of Minnesota"
macaroni and spaghetti and it is SUR
prislng how much better a family will
feel by eating more of these foods and
less meat.
Good m%acaroni and spaghetti are the
best and most nourishing foods known,
They are fine for children-making
their bodies strong and healthy. But
if you want that rich, nut-like flavor
be sure and get the delicious Min
nesota' brand macaroni or spaghetti
made from the finest Northern Durum
wheat, with all the nourishing Gluten
left in, 1t is easily digested and never
gets soggy. All good Fargo grocers
sell it.

Hank couldn't get away from her;
she couldn't shake off Hank,
And all that they could do was sit

So finally it got real late, bout 9

And Hank and her both knew that
they were in an awful plight.
with his free hand Hank turned the
team and headed back fer town;
He drove right to the parsons house,
the parson helped them down.
You see Hank couldn't use his mouth,
so he talked on his hands,
And told the parson: go ahead and
tie the weddin' bands
The knot was tied. The parson, who
had quite a tender heart,
Let Hank and her set by the stove
till they had thawed apart.
That happened quite a spell ago when
him and her was wed.
That frozen burs was Hanks good

But Hank and her amt never beer

CANADIANS WOULD
HELP IMPROVE RED

Grand Forks, N. D., Feb. 29.-Be-
lieving that the Improvement of the
Red river in the United States posses
SEES almost unlimited possibilities, j.
u. Hyland and A. Berg Of winnipeg,
prominent river navigation men Of
that city, are in Grand Forks yester-
day comforting with commercial club
OFFICIALS concerning the proposed sur
yey Of the valley.
ToniGht they will go to st. Paul
where they expect TO meet Major
Skunk of the United States depart
ment of war, and they will spend sew
eral days there, returning to Grand
Forks in time to attend the conference
Of valley mayors which will be held in
this city next Tuesday at the call of
Mayor M. +. Murphy of Grand Forks.
Pointing to the development of
river traffic on the Red at Winnipeg as
q result of the construction of the big
dam by he government north of that
city as evidence OF the fact that there
are big possibilities, they believe that
in the United States a system OF locks
and dams could be constructed at a
reasonable cost which would result in
a constant supply of water sufficient
to maintain navigation all seasons of
the year.
The Winnipeg men have an interest
IN the navigation question because Of
the fact that American improvements
would act to their advantage, opening
up the way to additional territory
south of their city, allowing them 10
enter the United States by the water
route. Some Improvement work would
have to be done in Canada, between
the boundary lire and Winnipeg. to

N. D. SEED CORN.

The farmers of this state are con-
fronted with a serious problem in the
seed corn supply. Many tests have
been made and the general report is
that the grain will not germinate.
There are some exceptions t. that
rule. The forehanded farmers-who
had gone through the fields and made
selections and then taken the seed
ears to a dry and warm place-find
their seed will terminate.
Those who neglected this found the
corn left in the fields contained so
much moisture that when the early
cold weather came the corn froze and
its terminating qualities were i'm
paired.

TAFT AND ROOSEVELT.

The decision OF Roosevelt to enter
the race for the presidency has re-
suited in a stiffening Of political
lines everywhere. One of the results
is that the followers Of President
Taft are being brought out promi-
nently
Some of the republicans who had
been lukewarm supporters of the man
in the White House are now ardently
advocating his reelection. Others
regarded as somewhat a~ntagonistic
are rallying to his banner.
Even The Chicago Record Herald
formerly such an ardent admirer of
LaFollette-evidentIy concluded the
Wisconsin man has no monopoly on
the claims of the public. In a recent
editorial, characterized by general
fairness, the paper said:
Colonel Roosevelts letter to the
governors, with it's declaration for
direct presidential preference prima-
ries wherever possible, means an
open, vigorous, determined struggle
all along the line between the Taft
supporters and the Rooseyeltians.
Henceforth sharp and decisive fight
ing over or for delegations must be
expected.
But what is the question which the
republican voters are called upon to
answer? The issue is not at ali sim
pie. Were Taft a standpatter or a
reaetionary, were his record poor or
%colorless, the Roosevelt candidacy
would be a candidacy of n for fur
Their advance and progress.
But Mr.. Taft is a genuine, If mod
crate and careful progressive; he has,
in his own judicial way, labored for
the promotion of the Roosevelt poll
cies' as they stood at the time of his
inauguration; he has earnestly cham
pioned reciprocity and pieeemeaI,
-businesslike tariff revision downward
under scientific tests; he has been a
genuine conservationist: he has fa-
yored constructive legislation toward
the regulation of combinations; he
has, proposed radical extensions of the
merit system; he has worked for peace.
arbitration. economy and efficiency: he
has urged financial and tax reform,
indorsing the income tax. and has led
the movement for law reform; he has
advocated postal savings banks. a
parcels post, broad and comprehensive
liability and compensation legislation.
President Taft has made mistakes
but he has been a sincere and high
minded executive. The question, then
is yvhefher the MATURITY of tlle renllhs
lican voters have one far beyond bis
position, have become dissatisfied
with conservative progressive poll
cies. and now want for their leader
and candidate a more radical progress
sive, a bolder and more aggressive re-
former.

OF course she acted BACKYARD like I'd

there was no doubt of it.
So Hank he grabbed her round the
waist; it was SO doggone cold,
She didn't have the heart to scream,
and cen forgot to scold.
OF course, she wanted to be bussed
as most all sweethearts do,
But still she couldn't let Hank think
she ever wanted to.
So after rasslin' round a while, Hank
bussed her on the nose.

EMIL o%BERHoFFER.
Director Of Minneapolis Symphony Or
ehsstra Hailed as Foremost
rondun1orA

The following appreciation of Emil
oberhoffer, conductor of the Minne-
apolis symphony orchestra, by Charles
e. Watt, editor Of Music News, Chi
cago, whose criticisms and opinions
are recognized the musical world over,
is but one OF many tributes paid to
the nan who has brought the famous
Minneapolis organization to its n
questioned place as one of the great
est orchestras of America and the
world:
Minneapolis Is fortunate indeed in
the possession Of Emil Oberhoffer as
director Of the symphony orchestra of
that city, and will be more so if she
retains his distinguished services in
definitely, for it would seem that the
very greatest arena was none too fine
for his efforts and either New York
or Chicago might well be proud to
possess his influence.
Mr.. Oberhofer is the most tenn
peramental leader in America today.
Time was when this honor easily fell
to Walter Damrosch, but this time is
nov Of the past and Emil Oberhoffer
SLdnQS NOudy aShQ anu SuOuIu9rS ABOVE
any Of his contemporaries in thevivid-
ness and the compelling force with
which he reads his programme and
sways his audiences.
"All over the country, wherever the
Minneapolis orchestra has appeared,
Oberhoffer is hailed as the last word
In poetical Interpretation, and not
alone is this true, but he is known
everywhere as a solid musician, one
to whom the reading OF the classics
has become an open book and who
sees in every great modern work all
the surface possibilities at a glance.
and is able and willing t o dig out the
hidden beauties as few others care to
do even when they can.
"The single programme of the Min
neapolis orchestra In Chicago, last
winter, was the red letter event of the
season and it Is earnestly hoped that
the coming winter will bring more
than one such performance"
