BOYS CAMP BEING
LAID OUT IN FARGO

Lieutenant Heron. U. S. A.. and
aides are today laying out the camp
for the 100 North. Dakota boys who
will visit the state fair in Fargo next
week as the guests of the Better
Farming association, according to
Expert Center of Grand Forks who
will have the encampment in charge.
I'VE have picked out a good Local
ton on the fair grounds and the camp
said Mr.. Center this afternoon.
There is now no question but that
all counties in n state will he rep
resented at the encampment. Prac-
tically all of the counties have been
heard from and delegates have been
appointed from each. Should any OF
the counties fail to send their boys
we will have a list of reserves to rep
resent the districts not sending dele
gates.
THE state superintendent of public
instruction is cooperating in the work
OF the encampment. He has sent out
letters to the sundry county superin-
tendents Of schools asking them to
assist in any way they can and they
are all taking hold in a most satisfac-
tory manner.
Some of the boys will arrive in
Fargo Saturday night and Sunday.
IL the majority of the delegates will
go to the encampment Monday morn
ing.
I'VE expect to make things lively
for the boys in Fargo. give them a
lot of fun and at the same time put
them in the way of learning many
things that will be useful on the
farm"

NORTH DAKOTA
ARE
M

One Of the most encouraging
features Of the Better Farming
movement which has gained such
a foothold in this progressive
state is the attitude of the farm
ers upon the subject. In too
many professions. the workers
seem to feel that they know it
all. that no one can give them
any Information. that the last
word has been said as to how
their work may be done and the
results that may be had.
The very great majority Of
North Dakota farmers, however,
are sufficiently broad minded to
know that i'm no line of human
endeavor has perfection been
reached. Science is constantly
opening up new methods and
new possibilities in every line of
human endeavor and the man
who makes good in any line is
the man whose mind is open to
new facts and who is willing to
hear the other fellow and to
useful and helpful to him in his
work.
The banker, the doctor. the
lawyer. the manufacturer. the
business man. the teacher, in fact
all men car learn. The sue
cessful man is the man with the
open mind who constantly rows
and progresses.

Lake to Grand Forks. In making this
trip he will carry a passenger, and If
successful in the journey will estab-
lish a new American record for en-
durance with a passenger, the previ-
Gus best performance being a flight
of sixty-eight miles. Manager Ken
worthy of the company will stop at
several of the towns enroute within
the next few days and arrange for
the stopping of the machine at these
towns. provided they can raise a suf-
hc1ent amount to make 1t worth
while. Teh flight, if completed, as it
undoubtedly will he. will be one of
the biggest aerial features aver at
tempted in the northwest.
Fred Harlm, the other Kenworthy
aviator, who was injured July 8 at
PlentNwood. Mont, returned this
morning from Devils Lake, where he
witnessed several flights by Bell.
The machine is a dandy" said
HARM this morning." and will un-
douhtedly be a good proposition,
barring accidents. The parachute
jump from the machine will be put
on in Grand Forks probably with
the fair directors. Mr.. Kenworthy
and the newspaper men as witnesses.
Ihis will be done I'm order to satisfy
all concerned as to the genuineness
of the feat. and then 1t will be an
easy matter to get contracts"

George F.. Flath. formerly of Grand

made some grave charges against the
authorities of the Rochester. Mimi.

charges are vigorously refuted by the
authorities. and ii is said No ~investi-
cation will be made. it being claimed
that Flath was a. dsorderly patient and
not entitled to any better treatment
than he received.
When making his charges the for

Republicans and democrats Of
Grand Forks county met in this city
yesterday afternoon and organized
their county central committees for
carrying on the campaign. as we'll as
appointing a state committeeman
from each of the three legislative dis
tricts in the county. The session of
the democrats was marked with har-
mony, but the republican meeting was
disturbed occasionally by short de-
bates.
The republican meeting was called
to order by Robert Westacott. who
was chairman of last years commit
tee. This was followed by a rather
warm debate as to the eligibility of
the votes of the proxies present. The
question was whether or not the vote
Of the men having proxies for dele
gates residing in different districts
was eligible. After arguing the ques-
ton for some time. it was decided
that all proxies should be voted.
Mr.. Westacott then called for nom-
nations for chairman. and A. G. Sor-

After another short discussion, 1t
was decided that the county commit

MONOPLANE WILL
FLY AT BIG FAIR
IN GRAND FORKS

For the first time in the history
of aviation a French monoplane
similar to the one flown by Avia-
tor Latham, killed this week in
the French Congo. will penetrate
the skies of North Dakota during
the Grand Forks fair, July 20 to
August 30.
Secretary Bachelor admitted to
newspaper men this afternoon
that he had engaged a m.noplane
and aviator, but would not d.
vulge the name of the flyer. Mr..
Bachelor said:
II have told you boys that I
had a surprise in store for YOU
and now you have made me let
the cat out of the bag. 1t is true
that l have secured the services
of one of the foremost monoplane
pilots in the world for the APP
preaching fair. but on account of
n keen demand for this man at
this season, when there are so
many fairs, l would rather not
make his name public for a short
time; l do not want to. take a
a at losing him until every
thing is tied up for his appear-
ance in this city"
This will be the first important
series of monoplane exhibitions
ever offered in the northwest.
The flights for the Grand Forks
fair are guaranteed and visitors
are assured royal entertainment.

DIETING HELPS RESTORE
INJURED DIGESTION

Many people have the mistaken idea
that dieting implies the eating of un-
p%alatable foods. This is o the case.
Foods that taste good are more apt
to digest well than unpalatahle ar
ticles. but the individual is also more
liable to he tempted into dietary ex-
cess by HI former than the latter.
This is all the truth there is in the
notion.
Dieting means simply that the in
dividual shall refrain from eating
things that are known to disagree with
him, and shall limit the moun which
he eats. while judicious medication
and rest to the digestive organs are re-
storing normal tone and activity.
Usually the necessity for dieting

tive organs. and dieting alone. while
i: will insure a measure of comfort,
will not cure the original trouble.

AVIATOR BELL FALLS FIFTY FEET N
HIS b|RLANE THIS M0RNMG--N01 Hurt
Breeze OFF Devils Lake Broke His Aereon and Machine
Crashed into Swamp-Will Take Week for
Repairs and Then Cross Country Flight.

Aviator Frank Bell. flying his Be-
moist military tractor biplane, fell
fifty feet this morning. while circling
around the city of Devils Lake. Bell
had made A spectacular flight last
evening. going up to a height of g.
300 feet, the North Dakota altitude
record. and his feat took so we'll in
the Satanic city that he consented to
remain there and fly again this
morning.
Luckily the engine was missing
fire when he started to circle the
city, and Bell had only attained a
height of fifty feet when his aereon
snapped and the machine came
hurtling to the ground. Bell, with
great presence Of mind. stayed in his
seat, kept working the levers. and
when he and the machine landed in
the swamp near the Great Northern
tracks. the landing was made in such
a manner that Bell suffered no per-
sonal injury. The wings of the ma
chine. however. were smashed up
and 1t will take a week for repairs
Bell is bruised up a little, but will
be able to fly as o o as the ma
chine is ready. The mechanicians
are already at work making new
wings and fixing up the tail of the
machine, which was badly smashed.
Fly to Grand Forks.
When Bell is ready to take to the
