How Few Flies There Are!

You hear that remark frequently
nowadays.
There's reason. There are two
reasons.
One is that the war on flies is
having its effect. The other is that
the season has been backward.
Warmer weather means more
flies.
Even one fly is too many.

@ IN MEMORY OF LITTLE @
o j. CARL. O
Q o G G @ @ @ G @ 9 Q 9 @ @ @

IT'S painfully grievous to have
our home rent and torn by the un-
welcome visitor Death, and while
we sadly mourn over our greatest
loss, heaven rejoices in its richest
gain. Our dearest little boy, j.
Carl Jackson, was born April 90,
1912, and died May Is, 1913, aged
IL months and 26 days. He was
the only child of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. c..
Jackson.
1t is common practice for us to
think and say our own loved ones
are the brightest and dearest, but
it seems that all who knew Carl
were drawn to him by the strongest
chords of love. He was only a
child, yet he was rapidly developing
and giving every evidence of being
a remarkably smart child.
When we remember him in his
unselfsh mood in the home with
his playmates and in all his lowell
ness, our eyes are filled with tears
and our hearts are pierced with the
keenest daggers. Such experiences
can only be felt and not uttered in
spoken language. though we must
be resigned to the sovereign will of
Almighty God, for it's He who
doeth all things well and bringeth
blessings in disguise. We are COM
forted and rejo'ced to know that
God is God of the living and not
of the dead and that our precious
darling is not dead but is living
with the angels. Ours is the great
est possible loss; his is the greatest
possible gain. Heaven has claimed
another one of its jewels, and is
nearer, dearer, and richer for us.
IT'S sad, solemn and almost I'M
bearable thought to know that the
family ties have been broken and
eternally separated, yet to know
that we shall be united in spirit, we
submissively bow to His divine will
and realize that time and the grace
of God alone can heal the wound.
We express with deep sincerity
our thanks to the good people of
Centertown for their kindness dur
ing the Illness and death of our
sweet boy. They gave all the care
and consolation possible.

Parents.

(By w. II. Cundin.)

How common 1t is to hear It said,
"Mr. Smith is worth $4,000 or
"Mr. Jones is good loking, and is
worth ssO,0U0," or Miss Taylor
is pretty and is worth $780,
O0O!"
Never word about good charac-
ter, intellectual power, or moral
worth. This sordid, sensual. capt.
talistic, commercial worth" is
what counts in our british individ-
ualism and our wicked capitalism.
Nothing exhibits more our want of
the finer perceptions and sensibili-
ties than this commercialized esti-
nation of worth"
Like Rockefeller, or any other
capitalist, one might have millions
in money and property. and yet not
be worth ten cents to society.
1t is the useful worker, the good
doctor, the able teacher, the inspir-
ed preacher, the intelligent editor,
the conscientious citizen, the public
spirited man, who is worth" his
weight in gold to humanity No
capitalist, exploiting labor, no par
asite. sucking substance from the
people, is worth" anything to So
cety.
When man sheds his coarse,
cruel, cheating individualism and
puts on the beautiful raiment of
the Socialized Man, who does work
for society, and thereby aids him
self as a factor in society, then
there will be millions of men made
of much mental and moral worth"
by the Justice and Opportunity of a
Righteous Socialism.
Worth" is not to be computed
in numbers, or in dollars and cents.
All the teachers, servants, lovers
and benefactors- of mankind, from
Jesus Christ to Francesca Ferrer
(who were executed by Church
and State). actuated by love for hui
manity, and devoid of selfish ambi-
ton, were poor indeed, so far as
this worlds goods were concerned;
but. being wise and good, and de-
sirous of assisting the poor and sim
full, and the ignorant and Cypress
ed, they pursued "the even tenor of
their way" undeterred by hate and
persecution and unknown to fame
and fortune
Worth" consists in character,
mental excellence. and moral good
ness. used in behalf of God and hui
manity.

NEWCOMERS FOR
BURLEIGH COUNTY

G. y. Wilson of Cedar Rapids, Iowa,
is in the city this week looking after
some land interests in the county and
showing other lands to several
loWans who accompanied him north.
Mr.. Wilson is in the real estate and
land brokerage business ana is asso-
ciated with the j. B. Slosson land
firm of this city. Each year Mr.. Will
son brings up a party of lOWans TO
see the land in North Dakota and
the SlossOn firm does the same with
Cedar Rapids real estate. Mr.. Will
son was accompanied by -. N. Mitch
ell Of Union, Iowa, who is the owner
OF a half section near Sterling. q.
Lldeman, who also came with the
party, own a hall section near Bel
field, and Mr.. Wilson himself is the
oWner Of 200 acres in Ward county
and owns a homestead four miles out
of Belfield. He was at Cleveland the
other day and sold Daniel Sachow,
cashier of a bank at that town, 1870
acres of land surrounding the town
site---the t0Wnsite of 80 acres being
taken from a corner OF the quarter.
1t is all good property and fine for
farming purposes, and the price is
so much cheaper than that paid for
land in Iowa that farmers looking for
a chance to grow the same amount
from cheaper priced LAND are glad to
invest in North Dakota.
Mr.. Wilson has been here tor sew
eral days and has been all over the
county. He reports that the fax, he
notices, is about all cut, and that
tilreshing of other grains is at least
half over. Corn, he stated. was bet
ter than he expected to find.
Mr.. Wilson left Bismarck Friday
for jamestown, where he will await
another Iowan, who coutemplates
buying a home here. The mar in
question has seven sons and two
daughters and would make an ideal
farmer. Mr.. Wilson himself intends
to dispose Of his holdings in Iowa as
soon as his children are through with
their term Of school and will come to
North Dakota. He has in mind some
land, only a mile or two out of Bis
,marck, which, he truthfully AYERS,
would make a fine location for a
home.

GRAND TRUNK WILL
enter MINIl0l1 soon

Minot, N. D., Sept. 5.-Authentfc
reports have been received that the
Great Northern has completed it's line
from Niobe on the Crosby branch 20
Northgate on the Canadian boundary.
While the line has been completed,
there still remains considerable work
to be done before the track will be in
shape SO trains can run over it. The
scarcity of labor is causing some de.
lay. .a
The Grand Trunk Pacific company
has also completed its line on the
Canadian side TO Northgate to meet
the extension of the Great Northern.
Both the Great Northern company
and the Grand Pacific company are
erecting roundhouses at Northgate..
Noadefinite date has been set, but
the Grand Trunk Pacific will; in all
probability be running trains into Mi
not inside of the next two or three
weeks.
The new town OF NOrthgate is To-.
Gated about 20 miles east of Portal.
The town is growing rapidly into a
very busy business center. Al gen.
eral store is already in operation; q
pool hall, garage, a modern, up to
date hotel and a loading platform are
nearing completion. There will be
two lumber yards located at that
point, and the Ely Salyards company
are having IN elevator erected. Every
line OF business that goes to build UP
a modern western town will soon be-
in operation there. 1s

The next step Is to treat this mass
in a rotary spinning machine. First
the mass Is spun into q coarse yarn.
Then it is drawn and spun until it be-

hard, strong thread is required for GER
tain fabrics the asbestos yarn is placed
in a doubling and twisting machine,
where two or ore or the yarn threads
are combined. II the asbestos is to be
impregnated with rubber a smooth,
hard finished thread Is not desirable.
For a long time the problem Of spin
ming asbestos presented many diff
culties by eason Of the manner in
which the threads persisted in slipping
past one another. Eventually it was
found that, under the microscope. a
thread Of asbestos displayed a notclled
surface and that by means Of special
twisting the spinning could be C
fully accomplished. The result is that.

facturers nowadays are able to turn
out a single asbestos thread 100 yards

Edmund Gambler, when in Lassa with
