advocates renting house before you

1T Is true that the people directly in
our rear are charming in the social
sense, but unfortunately. they spend
but six months time at home. On ole
side of us are some poor but honest
neighbors, whose children have taught
mine innumerable little phrases with
which they startle us from tine to
time. My God! and I amt got

truistic would have to draw the line
at family of seven diagonally across
who never miss chance to knock the
baby down or make off with unwatch

our own back yard (when we shall
own one) with hedge offers some
remedy; but what shall we do about
the neighbor on the other corner. who
has a rebellious cesspool?"

REALLY A SOUND INVESTMENT
Sanatorum Where Tuberculosis May
Be Cured Is Worth Much to
Any State or City.

DR.. H. L. Barnes, superintendent OF
the Rhode Island State sanatorium.
has recently demonstrated by some in
teresting studies of patients discharg.
ed as apparently cured" from that in
stitution, that a sanatorium is sound
investment for any state or city. The
gross earnings of 10 ex-patients OBJ
tanned in 1911 amounted to $102,752,
and those Of 211 cases in 1912 TO $112,-
021. BY applying the same average
earning to all eX-patients of the sana-
forum living in 1911 and 1912, DR..
Barnes concludes that their income in
these two years was 1851, 200. This
sum is more than three times the cost
OF maintenance of the sanatorium in
Guiding interest at per cent. on the
original investment and depreciation
charges. Dr. Barnes concludes, how
ever, While institutions for the cure
of tuberculosis are good investments,
there is good reason for thinking that
institutions for the isolation OF far ad-
vanced cases would be still better in
vestments."

"The virtues of Chinese laundry

the woman. "Not of my laundryman

All He Wanted.

A Boston man tells of certain ir-
repressible bore who always made
use of a formula when anyone sought
to put him off and thus spare the OBJ
jects of his attention the annoyance OF
an interview with him. This formula
was: But | assure you l want but one
word with him-only one world"
On one occasion he sought out a
noted lawyer. The latters clerk met
him very solemnly with: why,
haven't you heard? Mr.. Blank died
last night"
The words were scarcely out of the
clerk mouth when the applicant was
saying, conciliatingly: But l assure
you I want but one word with him
only one world"

For upon her rested the responsibility
Of seeing that the minister's secret
was kept. And she, and no other,
must break the news to him.
The dining room was dark and
gloomy She lighted the lamp. Then
she heard a door open and Ellery's
voice, as he called down the stairs.
"Who is it?" he demanded. Mrs.
Cofin?"
She was startled. Eyes," she said

Are you sick? Has anything hap

found her standing by the table wait

Dairy Business Shows
a Wonderful Growth
Throughout the State

There has been a great increase In
the dairy business in the state OF
North Dakota inside of one year." said
E. A. Greenwood, assistant dairy com
missioner of the state.
Il am pleased to say that the inter
est is growing all the time NJ I be-
lieve that in no great time North Da-
kota will take her place in the ranks
Of Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota
and the other great dairy states.
1.-THE people have begun to realize
what a great loss there has been in the
feed Of the state each year and the
work that has ben lone by the dairy
commission and the North Dakota
Better Farming association n other
organizations has begun to show UP.
This enthusiasm is not confined to any
one particular part of the state but Is
all over.
There is one feature that Is a draw
back in a way and that is the fact that
dairy cattle are scarce and hard to get,
but we have advised getting fine dairy
sires and bringing the stock that we
have up to a higher standard and that
helps to a great extent. But at the
same time the people very generally
arc doing their best to acquire more

ARRANGED A SPLENDID PRO.
GRAMME THAT WILL BE REM
DERED AT STONES NEW AUDI
TORIUM.

Fargo college spirit will reign su-
preme tomorrow night when the F. c.
Glee club stages it's home concert at
stones. new auditorium.
The songsters underwent a strenu-
Gus two weeks trip last month, and
it is reported that the voices have all
recuperated from the strenuous per-
formances.
One of the most favorable comments
Of the songs sung by the club was
| that 1t was a typical college pro-
gramme suited to college mems voices,
and pleasing to an audience Interested
in college life.
Besides the college numbers, there
are also several high-Class selections
| which are sure to please music-lovers
The Red Mans Death chant sung in
| honor of the popular Indian, Mr..
Smith of Fargo college, is a beautiful
| selection. Mr.. Smith was recently a
member of the club and a participant
| Of the tour of the state. The call OF
the gas pillow and outfit was too much
and this melIow-voiced Indian singer
from Carlisle departed last week for
his home.
The special features of the pro-
gramme tomorrow night viii be ex-
| cellent. The vocal soloists are first
class and succeeded in bringing down
every house on the trip. -
Clair Codding, violin ~soloist, is in q
class by himself among the younger
violinists of the northwest, and his
solos tomorrow night will be a big
drawing card. rrs
These, with numbers by the male
uuartette, and instrumental trio, will
form a varied and interesting eve
ning's entertainment.
The young men, of the glee club and
lady friends will depart from h au-
ditorium tomorrow evening after the
concert, and gather around h festive
banquet table at one of the local no.
tells.

and this is wise.
THE past few years have been edu-
cation years for the farmers in the
need Of the dairy business for the
state and it is certainly bringing forth
good results. In addition to the mon
ey that Can be made in the raising of
dairy cattle n the products of the
same it helps the land to a great ex-
tent. perhaps better than anything else
can do. .
There has been a great waste of
feed stuff in this state, but the farm
ers are erecting siIos all over the state
and will endeavor to get the cattle to
feed 1t to.
North Dakota is going through the
same process of education as to dairy
ing as did Wisconsin, Iowa and Min
nesota and / look for the time to come
when we will stand in the same class
with these great dairy states. l can,
see a great improvement now over
last year and believe the next year will
show even more. 1t is gratifying to
see the people putting up the silos, for
