Bitten by Horse.

Our townsman, Hen Matthews, while
conveying feed to one of Morris Proc
tors stage horses (the notably quiet
and good natured one) the animal took
a snap at Hen and closed his teeth on
his right cheek bone The flesh was
considerably lacerated and it not only
makes conspicuous but ugly wound
Although seventy-five years of age it
takes more than that to knock out Hen,
who was on duty that day and the next
as substitute stage driver, and he did
not lose any passengers while enroute.
The action of the horse is regarded as
playful one minus judgment.

PIONEER lie INSURANCE co.

Among the important insurance com
panies Of North Dakota, none occupies a
higher place in the estimation OF the peo-
pie. than does the Pioneer Life Insurance
Co. Of North Dakota. Their business is
supplying Of safe and conservative life
insurance to the residents of this state,
Minnesota and Idaho, at the lowest pos
sible cost consistent with safety. This
company was organized In the fall Of 1907,
and are now located In one of the hand
soonest buildings in Fargo, at corner OF
First avenue north and Roberts street.
During 1910-11 this company wrote more
business in North Dakota than any other
insurance company operating in the state.
They have a splendid office equipment and
an excellent agency force, employing al
together about 200 people. Their assets in
proportion to liabilities indicate that the
company Is as strong as the strongest. All
of their death losses have been paid on
the same day that the proof was made.
They have a branch Office located at Mos
COW, Idaho, where the business of that
state is taken care of. The stock in this
company is held by North Dakota men, and
1t is distinctly a North Dakota institution.

her proportionate share of these cas-
Ual visitors by holding out to the world
u many advantages.
One thing that is attractive is the
purity of the air and the unusual
number of sunshiny days, which Is
granted us each year. The railroad
folders speak Of the topaz blue of the
Colorado skies, but any day in Col
orado is no better than the average
day in North Dakota. Situated as
Fargo is in a sweeping bend of the
Red River of the North, surrounded by
slightly rolling country to the south
n west. we are protected from what
ever heat waves may sweep over the
state at large, and it is very rare in
deed when our hottest days in sum
mer prove at all uncomfortable to the
visitor from the middle states. The
heat waves are alleviated by an invig-
Grating breeze, and to one who comes
from the moist sodden atmosphere Of
Illinois. our climate is a delightful
change.
AS an attraction for visitors this
summer, we win be able to offer a
number of amusements and public
gatherings, which will no doubt at
tract thousands of people and our citi-
zens will hold their best foot foremost
to see that they are properly enter
tanned. Our new filtration plant which
gives an added advantage for pure
soft water for drinking purposes;
while the paved streets and uniform
good roads will lend added zest to the
enjoyment of the fortunate owner of a
motor car.

Fargo as a Summer Resort

Right now at the time of the wear
when the sun is beginning to take on
its added warmth; as the green grass
begins to shoot forth it's tender sprouts
from the soil, and as the trees begin
to send forth buds as the forecast Of
beautiful verdure, soon to make it's
tention of the world at large be called
to the many advantages of Fargo as a
city, wherein to spend the hot months
of the year. No other place has ss
delightful a climate as North Dakota,
and no city in the state has as many
attractive features for the tourist and
visitor as Fargo. Our excellent hotel
accommodations are not excelled by
those of any city in the entire north
west. Our park, while not as large as
some, equals in beauty any park to
be found anywhere. The natural trees
and conveniently placed benches where
any stranger may sit beneath the
cooling shade n pas hours away,
are very attractive to those who are
able to come to Fargo in the summer
time.
During the last year Duluth, SUI
perior, Virginia and other north Min
nesota cities were continually filled
with tourists from Ohio, Kentucky,
Indiana, Illinois and other middle
states. These people came for the sole
purpose of escaping the great heat
wave, which every year sweeps over
the Mississippi valley, and this year
it is quite possible for Fargo to secure

just being agitated by a number of
people of this city is the developing
of canoeing and boating on the Red
river. Inside of a month a new boat
house will be erected on the banks OF
the river lear the hospital, where a
number of boat owners and canoe
thusiasts will keep their water vehicles
stored ready for use at all times. The.
building will be 40x20 feet. and will
hold thirty canoes, the same will be
built of galvanized iron over wood
frame. The Red river affords many
beautiful stretches of water, and it is
possible to go quite a distance from
Fargo in a large motor launch-two
or three of which will be in commits
sion during the summer. With these
advantages to offer, would it not be
a good policy to arrange at least a
weeks time in Fargo during the heat
ed term? What better advertising
could Fargo have in the future, than
to have a number of people who had
spent IN enjoyable vacation period in
this city, tell their friends about u
many beauties and the ~salubrious
climate which awaits them in North
Dakota. Citizens are gained more
rapidly by personal conversation with
people who have visited the country
that they are looking toward. than by
any other manner, n if it were pos
sible to have three or four thousand
visitors here for two weeks during
the summer it is a practical certain
ty that the beauties of our city and
climate would so impress them that
it would send hundreds of permanent
residents to North Dakota.
This suggestion is worth trying out
at any rate, and it will cost our peo-
pie but little time and trouble to send
a letter to acquaintance asking them
to come to Fargo for their summer
vacation.

CrOss.State Highway.

The Crose-State Highway Associa- tion met in the city hall Monday evening, with good attendance, Vice president Alderson presiding.
 Secretary ]. O. Rush read a number Of interesting letters from various parties along the proposed route, and some from other portions of the State, indorsing the movement, and wanting to be counted in as enthusiastic SUD- porters. Editorials from several news papers were also read, urging the people to wake up to the necessity of good roads.
 MT. DeRossitt paid merited tri- bute to the efficiency of Secretary Rush, and stated that it required money to run anything that amount ed to anything, which truth elicited contributions from delinquent and new members.
 It was suggested that meeting be called for December 10th, inviting delegates from all along the proposed highway, and others interested. The suggestion was put to vote and carried.
 A meeting is called for next Mon- 1 day night, at the City Hall, and ar 1 engagements will then be made to care forand entertain all the visitors on De cember 10th. We urge upon all citi- zens 10 join the association, and meet with them next Monday night.
 If concerted action is taken on this proposition and it is thoroughly adyer- tised, thse will be a good big crowd of good roads enthusiasts here.
 This is also one of the best means for advertising our town and county. 1t will also help business

THE MILK QUESTION.

The Boards of Health of this city,
both present and former boards,
have had a tangled skein to un-
ravcl when dealing with the milk
question. These boards were truly
80 against old established customs,
accepted by dairymen and patrons
alike When attentions was called
to the defects and Ills of the sys-
tenn, the patrons were AFRAID to ef-
fcctively demand the enforcement
Of tho boards rulings, fearing to
increase the cost of their milk sup
ply. They risked the dangers. for
the sake Of cheap milk
The present board has been con-
Quoting campaign OF education
along this line for the past five
months There has been and is no
desire to impose hardships upon
the dairymcn beyond those absO-
lutcIy necessary for the protec-
ton OF the health of those they
serve. 1t became necessary to
prosecute three dairymen-and
they were convicted-in order to
command a respect for the regula-
tons. In evidence that these pros
ccutions bore no trace of persecu-
ton, tilS ptildItltS dutItOIILe ')N
the law was suspended, giving the
convicted dairymen an Opportuni-
~ of mending their ways.
The Board wishes to give notice
that it will recommend no further
suspension OF penalties and that it
will hereafter expect uniform
compliance With the law. After
the 10th OF the present month the
dispensing of milk from cans must
be abolished. Sanitary bottles
alone will be recognized. Any 9TH
ers will come under the ban. Milk
must score - and be brought up to
50 within 80 days, or the vendor
must cease.
The purity of milk must be safe
guarded. II prosecutions become
necessary they will be invoked
not in the spirit OF persecution
but with a view of obtaining a
compliance with the law. by those
who care to remain in the business
Sanitary milk bottles will prove
cheaper than court penalties.
