SUNDAY MORNING TALK
KILLING TIME.


 No right-ninded person hears with out a certain shock the common ex- pression, ito kill time" It suggests a crime almost equal to those of which the law takes account For time Is the stuff of life, and to kill time is7to kill life. Who in his senses would ever think or talk of murder ing his potential selff
 In view of the varied and fascin- at1ng interests that may enter into human career it is strange indeed that anyone should consider time as something to be killed, and gotten rid of. There is surely use enough for every minute vouchsafed to us in this mortal career. A person normally occupied finds each day too short for the opportunities presented. The wise man counts the precious moments of the day as a miser counts his golden coins-but only to see how they may be wisely spent, not selfishly hoarded.
 We come into the world with dou- bie endoVvr1 ent-With work to do and with suitable time in which to do it. There is time enough for the task but not too much. If time is wasted some part of the job assigned to our particular care will be left undone. A man must keep working to complete his stint before n1ghtfau.

THE MAN WHO TALKS

How we hope and pray for the re- movaI of the necessity for work, how we pine for rest in idleness when we ought to know there is no rest there. We have to work fer every thing God has provided for us even to the air we breathe; and if we get lazy and negligent about cur breathing we in Vite disease and die before our time. It is clear enough that lazy folks sin against themselves as well as God. Activity is life, and everything else tends towards ineftias or death. Those of largest experience in life know the most miserable people are those who do not have to work; and that it is the rich and idle people who dare not be left alone with their con- sciences. Keep Busy" is the man. date of life; and Step Lively!" is a good second. Laziness is always clear below par whether it is represented by the rich or the poor, for it only can give rise to discomfort. We get all the blessings we deserve by work ing for them likeness is the gath erer of many miseries; and work the guard of virtue.

WEDNESDAY, DEC. II, 1918.
THE 1918 CROP,

The Forum this evening publishes q
statement issued by the United States
government showing the total crops
Of the state this year as compared tc
1912. While the figures show that the
crop for 1912 fell far short Of the
bumper crops Of last year, they show
that over 500, 000, 600 was added to
the wealth of the state this year out
of the soil.
This is a big showing, compared to
many former years. even if it is con
siderably under the wealth produced
last year.
1t should be remembered also that
this years crop was harvested under
most favorable conditions, that pTac-
ticalIy every bushel Of grain is Of OK
cellent quality and that the results
were more evenly distributed this
year than in 1912, when some sections,
because of the fact that they could not
get their crop thrcshed owing to the
heavy rain, had in reality an almost
entire crop failure.
1t should also be remembered. in
comparing his years crop with last.
that in 1912 the crop was one Of the
most expensive to harvest that was
eve produced in the state. The straw
was so heavy, and there was so much
delay in threshing. that many farmers
stated they would rather have had
half the crop they secured last year,
and nave been able to get it to mar
ket under normal conditions.
The state has raised a crop Of TO-
, 600, 900 bushels of corn this year, the
biggest crop of corn ever produced in
North Dakota. It is 1000, 900 bushels
larger than the big crop last year.
Here again there should be some read
ing between the line in figuring the
value Of the crop to the state. 1t is
! almost safe TO say that the 1913 crop
Of corn is practically double the value
Of the 1912 crop. because of the far
superior quality of the 1913 corn.
There is still another feature that
should not be overlooked in figuring
how much prosperity the 1913 Crop
will bring to the state. That is, that
whereas in 1912 practically the whole
crop was shipped out of the state as
grain. much of the 1913 crop will go
out in the shape Of livestock, butter,
etc. The diversified farming move
ment has made such tremendous
strides that a big part Of the CrOp
will be fed here in tho state. This
means that the farmer gets a much
higher net return than he did when he
sold his grain as grain.

THE COST OF LIVING.

1t has been said that the pure food

maple syrup which formerly sold for

DANIELS ON THE WARPATH,

The democratic administration seeks
to revolutionize methods in the navy.
Secretary Daniels has come out for
governHnent-n1ade armor, guns and
powder. No longer are the contractors
to wax fat on the government-that
is. il congress approves.
Cgte reason for this move is econo-
my; another is that the secrets Of
manufacture must be guarded. 9th
eTwise other nations building battle
ships in private shipyards here will
profit from American advance.
Still more interesting and revolu-
tionary is the proposition Of the secre-
taTy OF the navy that the government
and operate its own oil fields.
Modern ships are oil burners rather
than coal burners. The price Of oil
LIS steadily rising. If the government
controls oil fields sufficient to supply
its ships, a great saving will result in
the years that are to come. Already
the navy uses 100000 gallons Of oil
al year.

President Wilson's assurance to the

DON'T STAY GRAY! NOBODY
CAN TELL WHEN YOU DARkEN
GRAY, FADED HAIR WITH SAGE
TEA AND SULPHUR.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and abundant
with a brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair fell out or took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect. BY asking at
any drug store for .Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy" you will get a
large bottle OF this old-time recipe,
ready to use, for about 80 cents. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty to
the hair and is splendid for dandruff,
dry, itchy scalp and falling hair.
A welI-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur, because it darkens so
naturally and evenly that nobody can
tell It has been a~pplied-it's SO easy
to use, too. You simply dafnpen a
sponge or soft brush and draw it
through your hair, taking one strand
at a time. by morning the gray hair
disappears; after another application
or two. it lis restored to its natural
color and looks glossy. soft and ahun-.

Food Boycotts and Inquiries.

Indianapolis News: We must have
something better than food boycotts,
The local and general inquiries which
follow such bOYCOtts are more etlica-
cious, if they are conducted honestly
and vigorously. But science must be
applied all the way from the farm to
the table. 1t is said that the present
high price of eggs was the result Of a
daring corner" in the market. If we
had the proper means for distribution
in each city there would be no such
"Corners." The consumers some day
will awaken TO the fact that the great
need is for an efficiently managed and
unmanipulated food terminal in each
Ceter Of population, to which food of
all kinds may be shipped and her re-
distributed. Terminal markets mean
cheaper food.
