COMMISSION BELIEVES THAT IT
81 SHOULD NOT MAKE DECISION
AS TO LOCATION ,.5 III

Because of the extremely keen s
competition that has been created for :
the location of the hospital which
will be constructed in the state by the
;Methodists, the commission appointed
by the state conference has decided to
refer the whole matter back to the
general body for consideration at the
next annual gathering. III.
Commercial clubs in the several
cities, organizations Of physicians, to-
3gether with others, have Interested
themselves in an effort to secure the
hospital, and the result has been such
Ia spirited contest before the commits
sion that it has been decided to refer
the matter back: ".
The general state conference of the
Methodists will be held next October,
thus giving the several cities interest
ed in the proposition about nine
months time in which to complete
their plans for the fight before that
body. #
The Methodists are desirous Of con-
structing an institution that will be-
large enough for the needs OF the de-
nomination for many years to come.
In selecting a location the conference
hospital commission felt that too
much was at stake to pass hasty judg-
lment on the pleas Of the several cities

5.- St TOWNSHIP WORK 5:$

Bismarck, N. D., Jan. 24.-Of all the
questions to be dealt with during the
present session of the North Dakota
legislature, none is regarded as OF
greater Importance than the matter OF
good roads, and in all probability the
next few weeks will witness some leg
islation in this respect that will be a
great boon to hte state. s5
Approaching the significance Of the
good roads question, representatives
of both branches of the legislature are
cooperating in a preliminary endeavor,
and joint committee resolution is
about OF be introduced dealing with
the good roads problem. E ss5
A special committee, consisting of
the chairman Of the good roads com
tnittee Of the, house and senate and
several members, already have prepar-
ed a rough draft Of a bill dealing with
township road building, which In all
probability will be introduced this
week. " $sS:$ ;. ~. s$ss
It. provides that township road
Ecommissio ioner$ shall be appointed BY
the board Of supervisors, whose term
OF office shall be three years, and it
Incorporates a system Of cash pay
ment that will insure this official Of
sufficient funds to carry on the. good
roads work in his respective district.
Under the present system, the road
oyerseer Of the respective townships
is elected for a term Of one year, and
his work is alleged to be carried on
in{a a haphazard fashion. y
So many individual plans have been
suggested by the respective members
Of both branches, that the good roads
committee Of the two houses decided
to get together on the proposition and
submit a committee bill that would
thoroughly cover the question.
Representative Of the various com.
mercial clubs throughout the state
met with committees from both houses
last week and urged early and favor.

ALFALFA FOR THE HORSE.
Mistake to Think Hay Is Not Suitable
For Animals Feed.

Hon. f. ID. Coburn, the author of an
authentic treatise on the growing, care
and feeding of alfalfa. or lucern, finds
that from ten to twenty pounds OF al
faIfa hay per day. with Il small guam
tity of grain, will keep work horse in
good condition at 4 saving of 20 per
cent to 30 per cent in cost Of mainte-
nance He says: ''The idea that al
falfa hay is not suitable for horses has
been proved erroneous by thousands of
farmers. teamSters and liVerymen
Many use no other hay. If there is
any trouble it comes from feeding
more than is needed"
Utah experiment station finds that
1.400 pound horses at hard work can
be maintained in condition on 32la
pounds of alfalfa hay Il day. When at
resi- twenty pounds were sufficient for
the same horses.

they passed up the companionWay TO
the deck, where they strolled about or
stood chatting in groups. Lucy Arcnl-
bald had captured Ensign Noble. who
was promenading with her. and in
stead of looking happy the union
down" tioated palmer than ever from

rails party. where Miss Tryne saw
them. wondered and wrapped herself
in a mantle of cool dignity.
1t was about this time that some
thing happened. There were aboard Il
number Of maidServantS, dressed in
the conventional livery of black
dresses and white ruttied aprons,
! whose Ostensible duties We're to serve
the ladies' Suddenly Noble saw his
friend Mansfield come up the compan-
| iOnWay with one of these maids ana
point to his companion. Lucy Archl-
bald. The maid advanced and said to
| Lucy in low voice:

People were looking when she opened

friend from his double girl dilemma

was not Informed Of
Even had Noble really loved the girl

that Lucy was no more of a thief than

guests. but by this time Noble had
