GRAIN MARKETED

Williston, N. D., July 2S.-Already
nerly 5000, 900 bushels Of grain have
been brought in from the surrounding
country for marketing here. 1t is be-

1t is estimated by the elevator men
that the grain Is coming into Willis
ton at the rate of between 1000 and
1000 bushels per day.
Cars were being loaded out at nearly
all Of the elevators on Tuesday when
The Graphic mar interviewed the
grain buyers. OF course, not all the
grain marketed here has been shipped,
as a vast amount Of it, bought at the

a wide territory. The mill reports a
constantly increasing business and
widening territory for Williston flour

CHANCE FOR NEW MOVEMENT.

There has been much discussion in
means of helping the farmer to elevate
khis calling and to render his life more
pheasant. Vocational schools for boys
and girls, scientific instruction on silos
land crops and many more things have
Ebeen advocated and some of them are
Fbeing put into practice with excellent
results. But it has remained for the
FARMERS wives in Geauga county, Ohio,
Ito strike the real note of success.
These good ladies. like their sisters
Fof the cities, have to wrestle with the
high cost of living, and this has re-
acted on the men folks in ways other
Ethan merely having to pay the bills. 1t
has-or SO report ran-cut down the
quality Of food those Woodworking
itillers of the soil were offered and
there was in consequence something
resembling a revolt.
Now, a farmer, as everyone knows,
has plenty of hard physical labor in
his line and the splendid farmers ap-
Ipetite is proverbial. To sustain him
in this strenuous labor and to ease
this mighty appetite, good food and
plenty of it is the prime requisite. So
the wives and daughters Of the Geauga
district decided that a reform was
Unnecessary.
They got together and agreed that
better meals was the due of the men
land they planned to give them. So
they started a contest among them
selves as to who could prepare the best
meal for her family, using as far as
possible the things that she raised on
her " farm and in her own garden.
Prizes will be awarded for those who
prepare the best meals during the
month of August, and 200 or more
women have agreed to compete. Var
'iety Of food and cooking will be the
chief points aimed at and keeping
down the expense account will also
have a large part in deciding the con-
test.
Here is a. valuable suggestion for
some n of the fair sex in North Da-
kota. This state pioneered the better
farming" movement, which is simply
the taking of up-to-date farm methods
which have been learned by tests and
experiments, directly to the tillers Of
the soil.
Why not enlarge on this scheme of
the Ohio folks and start a better
housekeeping" movement for women,
perhaps on a somewhat smaller scale
than the better farming movement for
men? Domestic science, which is mere
1y improved methods Of housekeeping,
is being taught in the schools. Why
not take these improved methods Of
Ihome-making more directly to the
women of the state, as the improved
farming methods are being taken to
the men.

BALKAN ATROCITIES.

; There seems to be no doubt that the
war between the one-time allies in
the Balkans has been marked by
atrocities that have few parallels in
modern history. Greek accuses Bulgar
of massacreing thousands, and the
Bulgarians deny this and in urn
charge the Greeks with even worse
things, while the Servians n Turks
are accused by the other two belliger-
ents of atrocities equally as CHASTITY.
Out Of the weller the only nation that
seems to have escaped is Montenegro,
against whose armies there has been
no word Of complaint so far.
At this distance, and amid the con-
ficttng stories, it is difficult if not
impossible to say just which of the
~belligerents has disgraced itself most,
but the probabilities are hat Bulgaria,
when all the facts are known, will be
found to have been the worst sin
ner. King Constantine, of Greece, has
made public specific instances of bar
barity that aus a shudder to run

young girls, locked them in the mosque
and set fire to it. They played on the
bagpipes while the victims were

wives and daughters of the victims
dance before the bodies of the Mes

EDITORIAL COMMENT
mmin Lake Erie.

~ONV ~AtSs
Toronto Mail and Empire: The in
ternational waterways commissions
recommendation that the Niagara riv-
er be damned by a submerged weir a
few miles below the Lake Erie outlet
ought to have careful consideration.
The raising Of the level Of Lake Erie,
the object of the proposal, is desira-
Bile, since the diversion of water
through the Chicago drainage canal
and the enlarged Erie canal have low
cred the levels to a serious extent. II
the raising of the level Of Lake Erie
IN this way does not mean any lower
ing of Lake Ontario levels, or any in
jury to the power plants at Niagara
falls, there will be no sectional protest.
But. once and for all, it should be def
nitely understood, and, If possible,
made the subject Of a binding agree
ment, that compromising works on the
lower lakes shall not in raising their
levels, and restoring former conditions,
be the occasion for fresh raids on the
Great lakes water supply by the Chi
cago drainage canal authorities. The
application of the Chicago sanitary
district for permission to enlarge the
canal and greatly increase the flow
was refused by the United States Sec
rotary Of war largely on the ground
that a further lowering Of lake levels
would inflict immense damage on nav
igation interests. 1t was held that
levels had already been sufficiently
lowered, as the drainage canal was
taking a much greater volume Of wa
ter than its license allowed. Whatever
~compensating works may be under
taken by the governments Of the two
countries Jointly should be for interna-
tional benefit only, that Is, for the
people using and living along the
whole length of the Great lakes sys-
tenn.
Canada is preparing to build it's new
Welland canal. and with the prospect
of deepening the st. Lawrence canals,
this country has too much at stake to
consent to further large diversions.

win incline to the belief that naost OF
the charges + true despite the
you're another" attitude OF the ac-
cused. The Balkan peoples have had
the example OF the Turks in these
matters before them for centuries, and
the Bulgarians appear to have taken
to them most readily. Even If half OF
the awful stories told are false the
balance make up a page so black that
all sympathy for the oppressed Bulgars,
all admiration for the magnificent VIC
tories they won over the Turks, Is
turned to loathing.

RELIC FROM The
BAYTLESHIP MAINE

Ashland, Wis, July 2S.--Through the
persistent efforts of Commander Hen
ry Bitschenauer, of John J. Kingston
camp, there has been issued to the
camp by the navy department, a
bronze memorial tablet of the old bat
tleship Maine. So far as is known,
this is only the second tablet in the
state Of Wisconsin, the other being
located at Virogua. There are only a
thousand of these tablets to be cast
from the metal Of the ~battleship Maine,
which was blown up in Havana har-
Dor, bringing about the Spanish-Amer-
lean war.
The tablets are made with a brass
finish, being manufactured OF the
nickel, copper and brass recovered
from the battleship.
The relic will be on exhibition for
about a week, when it will be hung UP
in the meeting place of the John j.
Kingston camp.

most successful remedy for weman's
ills was originally prepared nearly
forty years ago by Mrs, Lydia r.
Pinkham of Lynn, Mass, by sleeping
roots and herbs on her kitchen stove
and supplied to friends and neigh
bors without cost. It's fame spread;
the demand grew; until now many
tons, of roots and herbs are used each
year in order to supply this famous
remedy which has proved such a mar
velous success in controlling diseases
of women. Merit alone could have
