~. There Was i
ADTOYV- Stormy Time
In Flyland.
Dinah AlWays
Ghases Files.

PACK and Evelyn had been telling daddy Of the wicked doings OF the fly
family. There had been a good deal OF talk In school about flies toward
the end of the term and many boys and girls had started out to hunt
IL and swat them.
"Ah, indeed" daddy observed; that may account for some of the strange
stories my friend Buzzer has been telling me.
1T seems that there have been very strange happenings in F1yland. Buzzer
was quite worked up about II.
CAS- he came and sat down on my shoulder he was out Of breath and
wheezed as he began to talk.
6 II can't think what that big black thing was that passed me, ne said.
Really it gets more dangerous every day for a poor dy to be about / was
slowly flying through the kitchen when d black mountain rose in front OF me-
and part of the mountain reached out and tried to hit me. why can't noun
tains keep still instead Of rushing about like that, getting into a poor fys way
and soaring him most to deathp"
Jack and Evelyn laughed. "That vas Dnah in the kitchen. She always
aliases flies" they explained. "She says she can't abide them in her kitchen"
There was a terrible earthquake out on the porch said the fly. i sat
down for just a minute OF something that tasted, oh, SO sweet! " and daddy
glanced roguishly at Evelyn as he spoke.
Eyes, yes; Evelyn had a piece OF cake on the porchg' Jack laughed de-
hghtedly. DON'T you remember you said, Scat you hornd hyp" Evelyn
smiled and nodded. #
Daddy went on: tBuzzer said he wanted to just get a taste D. the sweet
stun when the earthquake began.
Whenever 1 go into the house something is sure to happen he com
planned II have almost a notion to do like Uncle Bluebothe-go Off by myself
"Yes; he has a beautiful home over there in the marsh. The house he
used to live in got to be such a dangerous place he left It. He would sit down
for a minute, but a mountain would chase him or a big black cloud would
come swfshing down, trying to hit him. There were so many storms and
cyclones and tornadoes and earthquakes that he said he would go of where
there were n o moving mountains and live in peace and safety. He says there's
lots to eat over there in the woods, and IL this keeps up much longer, why, I'm
just going out camping myself until times get to be a little queter for a
poor fly, & @s h@ 1865
Flies can see only a very little of a big creature like a human being at a
time. So they never quite know what we are. Don't you think, then, that to
them we must look very like moving mountainsT'

WHAT WAR COSTS.

II any one doubts the cost Of war to
trade and it is we'll to study
the result of the Balkan war on Aus
tria. Up to May / this had caused
caused business failures in that coun-
try amounting to more than SIG, 000,-
goo and the end was not reached.
Debts of $18,0 00, 900 remained unpaid
owing to the war. Industry suffered,
machine factories reported 81 500, 900
in losses and the demand for textiles
decreased one-third and this Is the
most important industry In the en-
pire.
The losses to other European cour-
tries were also very heavy. 1t Is no
wonder Europe wants the war ended.
Only one industry thrives on wal or
war threats. This is the making Of
armament, of guns and ammunition.
With peace and the development Of the
greater Balkan states, industry will
thrive, but, 1t will take Austria a long
time to 20 friendly trade rela-
tons with these people and also to re-
coup it's heavy expenditures Of mobi-
l~ization and keeping a great army in
the field for operations.
War is wholly d~estructive; 1t bene-
fits no n and Europe would have
richer If the great powers had reached
by peaceful means the results secured
by this war.

Why They Visit the President.

National Magazine: It is interest
ing to hear visitors to the White
House relate the purposes for which
they desire to see the president. With
many it is a matter of idle curiosity.
Some want to see lie he is taller than
they thought he was, whether his eyes
are blue. whether he has d diro3le
when he smiles, and myriad of small
details that would be thought ordin-
arily of little and vet q
is these very details that go to make
up the popular impression OF a public
servant.
At a recent reception one solemn
visaged man., evidently: a. professor
was standing In line shuffling his feet
He was an exceedingly well-read gem
teInan. and called attention to the fact
thai twenty-five of the twenty seven
presidents of the United States had
iarental ancestors in the British isles
ENGLAND having sixteen, Scotland
Two, ireland three and Wales one
Martin Van Buren, and Theodore
Roosevelt represented a Dutch ances-
try, ne said, and the curious fact Is
noted that although France has been
SO closely associated with the birth
and history of the country, there has
not been a president of French or Lat
In blood. But with the influx OF i'm
migration from the south of Europe
said the professor as he shifted to
the other foot, this condition is sure
to change
The pfysiognomy OF the men today
as compared with the portraits or men
who had lived in former times pre-
SCENTS a most interesting study. The
president necessarily rejects the type
Of his times. The stately dignity Of
official position in years past, with
tail collars, stuffy craVats. laces and
ruffies, has passed away, and now IN
stead OF gaining personal distinction
Through rich attire or an
OF official position, III "a studiously

GET YOUR FLAG
FOR The FOURTH
THE FORUM HAS A LARGE sup
PLY or EXCELLENT FLAGS AND
EVERY CITIZEN SHOULD DIS
PLAY ONE FOR THE FOURTH
OF JULY.

Every loyal American citizen should
have a flag. This is the greatest ma
ton on the face Of the globe, and Its
citizens should be proud of that fact,
and proud of the starry banner which
floats over this nation of free men.
In the days of the glory Of old Rome
the greatest honor that could be con-
ferred upon a man was TO make him s.
citizen of the Roman empire, but
Rome. in her proudest day, although
she ruled all the known world, could
not compare, in wealth, in strength or
in greatness with the American repub-
lie of today. Be proud of your citi-
zenship in this nation and teach your
boys and girls to take the same pride
in being an American.
The Forum believes in teaching pa
triotism. For that reason 1T has secur-
ed a great supply of American flags
and is distributing them at a nominal
fee, merely covering the cost and the
expense of handling them.
Get one of these flags to display on
the Fourth of July. It Is a handsome
flag, large enough for display at the
home, and no Fargo home will be COM
plete without one.

WEDNESDAY,, JUNE 1s, 1918.
HORSES.

There are two seasons Of the year
when the horses should be made the
subject Of special consideration. One
of these seasons is when the streets
and roads are bad as the results Of
frost and sleet and snow. The other
season Is now approaching, Is perhaps
already here.
No animal is more susceptible to the
influences Of humidity and heat than
the horse. IF this statement is not
wholly accurate it IL made to appear
so BY the fact that the horse cannot
apsak when il Is "off its feed, Is
frequently made to perform the sever
est tasks when it ought really to be
resting ana recuperating.
For this reason intelligent and hui
name men ought to begin Immediate
lily to see that the standard load, which
may be drawn with comparative ease
lin temperate weather, Is somewhat
diminished; that the inclines en- route
from point to point are avoided as
much as possible. and that drivers are
! Instructed to rest their animals from
time to time. Above all they should
Ebe instructed to exert special care that
1.-the horses get enough to drink, taking
THEW hole day through, and not too
tEnuch at any n time-particularly
Ewhen the animal is in a heated and ex-
hausted condition.
Humane people will welcome the
day when the auto truck wholly sup
EpIants the horse. Not because the
Enaost useful of all animals has lost
anything in usefulness, but because 1t
is SO little the fashion nowadays to
kemploy tempered and expert men as
rivers. especially for city trucking,
when irresponsible boys can be had at
lower wages.
It is but fair to mention that some
owners Of horses, and this Is particu-
Iarly true Of the large Fargo contract
ars, are very careful as to the men
they put in charge of their animals,
and It Is to their credit that these AMI
mails always appear to be we'll cared
for and we'll handled. On the other
hand there are many who seem to
have not the least sense of RESPONSE
bility in this regard.
Nor is it worth while to advocate
kindly practices to those who are not
natural humanitarians.
But on the ground of dollars and
CENTS, the suggestion is offered that
the valuable horse is liable to die or
be ruined, If 1t is not skiIfully handled
when the weather is particularly
warm. and that it will be able to make
a big return or the investment for
years to come, If the mar who loads
and handles and makes out the
tschedule, does a little thinking.

THE NJ READY.

u
Col. w. C. Gorgas of the medical
Ecorps of the United States army, chief
sanitary officer Of the Panama canal
zone, and a member of the Isthmian
canal commission, expresses the opin-
ion In The Houston Post that some
boats will be able to go from the At
lantic to the Pacific oceans by pass
ing through the canal not later than
Jan. / next, though the formal opening
will not occur until q year later. There
is another report to the effect that the
canal is ready right now to take boats,
and that il there had been a hostile
demonstration by Japan the American.
war fleet could have been sent through
afhe canal to the Pacific coast. M
anyway, the fact that the canal is
las nearly ready for use as Colonel
Gorgas says, proclaims a marvellous
achievement, and one that points out
what American genius and enterprise
has accomplished against what France
Twas unable to do. The French effort
continued from 1881 to 1894, when the
plant and works were abandoned until
the United States took hold not less
than ten years ago. There has not
been in this country the slightest
trouble about getting the money as
fast as needed, and at a lower rate of
interest than any other nation can
obtain. The funds are supplied di-
rectly from the national treasury. and
to a considerable extent without the
sale of bonds. All the people have
been heartily in favor Of the expendi-
ture. No political party has entered
an objection to it in any platform.
There is more OF national credit in
this vast construction than is yet per-
ceiyed, and it will not be fully stated
and appreciated until the subject
gets into the hands OF the deliberate
historians of the future. With the
ownership and possession of this canal
the United States lis In a practically
i~nvincibIe position. both for the pur-
pose Of wal and the gentle arts of
peace. But it wouldn't have been
quite SO if France had built the canal

Is not the assurance of the big yield
Of 1912.
Stubble land that was well burned
and well disced and properly seeded
shows q very good stand of wheat,
and in some cases as good as IL the
land had been plowed. But In d
great many fields the wheat seed wa
put in with very little preparation OF
the land on heavy stubbIe ground,
and the weeds have had d good start.
Unless q very favorable season oc-
ours, much Of this land Will not have
q good yield. Late sowed wheat may
prove the best.
While 1T Is seen there will be a de-
crease in the wheat yield over last
year. the quality is likely to prove
better than last year. There prom
ises to be a large yield of feed crops,
as after seeding was finished a great
deal of land was planted to the early
maturing crops such as oats, barley
and rye.
