of delegates with the understanding
that none but those whose progressive

Governor Burke gave a short talk
to the hundred boys encamped at the

Barley an Exceptional Crop In Many
Sections. {.

Valley City.-Harvesting of rye and
wheat in Barnes county has been COM
pleted and farmers are cutting oats,
the entire crop of which will be In

ent indications are that Barnes coun-
ty will produce a crop this year that
has not been equaled in the past Is
years. Barley is an exceptional crop
and in many fields was so heavy that
1t fell of its own weight before the
harvesters could reach it.
Oats are splendid, save for the mum.

feet the total yield. Wheat is ripen-
ing slowly, owing to the large number
of cloudy and rainy days of the past
two weeks, but with few days Of hot
sunshine the crop will soon be ready
for cutting.
Wheat as bumper crop is q thing

WED YOUNG AND BE HAPPY
Fewer Divorces Follow Early Unions,
a Medical Export says-Most
Separation After.

Cambridge. Mass-"Men should
marry young" said DR.. William F.
Boos, the Harvard Medical expert.
He added:
Statistics show clearly the great
benefits of an early union. An impor.
tant feature is the better health. The
offspring of youthful marriages as a
rule inherit greater mental and physi,
cal well-being.
"Our ideas on the subject of the
marriageable age and the require,
ments for the union are all wrong A
father. instead Of opposing a youthful
marriage, should encourage. Statistics
show marriages that usually end in
divorce are contracted by people more
than thirty years old"
