THRIVING FACTORY
AT BUFFALO, N. D.

Buffalo Express: 1t has been the in
tention of the writer, for some time, to
let the public know something about
the doing of the T. G. Raveling & Son
noseguard factory, which has, from a
very small beginning, developed into
quite a respectable industry.
o, e. Melvin was the first n to
whom it seemed essential that the
working horse ought to have some
protection against the insect, which,
for the want of a more high sounding
name, is commonly called the nose
| fly, or, as others say, the Bot fly, MI.
Melvin made his wants known to
Franklin Colburn, VINO soon made
what at the time looked like a very
good noseguard and everyone who
saw it believed it to be about the
article that would do the work.
It did not take long for the above
named firm to use up all the wire that
they had and also all they could get
from the wholesale houses at that
time, and the total output did not
exceed 300 noseguards.
The next rear a few travelling men
carried samples and sold them as a
sideline, and when the aso was
over the firm had sold about 5000 OF
them. Another years rolled around
and the output was doubled. In
Auguct, 1911, r. H. Raveling visited
the iobbers in hardware and harness
Fargo. They all seemed willing te
give the article a trial. Small samples
were made up and every hardware and
harness travelling salesman carried his
sample. The result was that in 1917
the output reached about 10000 ant
several orders could not be filled be-
cause the material to make noseguardt
could not be had. In July, 1912 thu
firm contracted for material enough
to make $4,000, to which has beer
added enough more to make all to-
gether $4,000 noseguards. The firm
has at present orders for some.
thing over 10000 Of these, abou
5000 dozens have been shipped to thu
various wholesale and retail houses.
The article has been very much i'm
proved in shape, construction and
material. The material used Is nov
all galvanized, the basket itself is
made Of galvanized before weaving
wire cloth, held by an electric weldeC
rim and strengthened by three galvan
lied wire brace wires and triInlneC

which is put or with timed staples
by a machine operated by a small

in and clinched by a little machin'
which was constructed and made b!
Franklin Colbnrn.
The cost of making has been grad
ually reduced from about 3 cents t.
l cent apiece. To make the abov,
number takes some material and be
low are a few items which will Civ,
the reader some idea shout the worl
and cost of the article: 255,000 square
feet OF wire cloth; 100000 staples

wire; $50 gross Of three-fourth dees

TUESDAY. APRIL. 8, 1913.
COMMISSION ADOPTED.

Showing a complete reversal Of SEN
timent over three years ago when the
proposition was defeated, Fargo has
adopted the commission form Of gov
ernrnent, by one of the most decisive
votes ever registered in the political
history Of the city. Although there
was a light vote cast, those who did
vote spoke in such a decided manner
that the real sentiment Of Fargo was
clearly shown.
The overwhelming nature Of the
victory for better government, is. in
the opinion of The Forum. indicative
of the fact that the people of this
city know just what they want and
are going to get II. 1t indicates that
Fargo citizens are awake to their own
best interests. that they are united as
never before and that the days Of po-
liticai gang control are gone.
The city has now to select the FIVE
men who will run the affairs of Fargo
in a business like way and give this
city a clean, business like administra-
ton. There are going to be a great
many candidates-from present indi-
cations. When it comes to a selec-
ton. The Forum believes that is a
matter for the people at large to de-
eide.
Fargo now has an opportunity of
gaining nation wide fame as u we'll
governed city. This can be attained
by cutting out politics, and selecting
men for their fitness for the position.
The city has the men. The Forum
has faith in the people, and believes
that they will make the right choice.

Manager Fowler is pleasing the
patrons of the Orpheum by his clever
bill for the irst half Of this week, the
headliner being Menlo Moore's famous
Mother Goose Girls, who are appearing
in a spectacular act in which melodies
Of Mother Goose form a prominent
part, introducing The Story of Book
land, the Enchanted Forest and Mid
night on the Rooftops. In this latter
little Boy Blue, a clever little lady
rides a broomstick out over the heads
Of the audience, making a charming
effect. 1t Is a pretty act and filled
with splendid scenic effects and situa-
tons. Miss Evelyn Dare has a fine
new song which she sings we'll. The
Penn City Trio have a grand musical
act introducing comedy and harmony
singing and they responded to many
recalls. The Ritters have a pleasing
singing, talking and dancing act that
went exceeding well and Walter Bak-
er has a single turn act in which he
does some very mystifytng acts that
make the audience sit UP and take no.

WILSON'S MESSAGE,

The message that President Wilson
delivered to the opening session Of the
stxty-third congress today was a re-
markahde document in many respects.
It was a masterpiece of condensation.
1t was one Of the shortest messages
ever delivered to congress. 1t was de-
ltvered to congress personally. some
thing that has not beer done since
John Adams was president.
But the most important feature was
the assurance that the president
gives TO the business interests of the
country that there is to be no disas-
trous business overturn. The president
says that monopoly must be checked.
and that the first step in that direction
is. to lower the tariff. under the pro-
lection of which the monopolies have
been fostered. But he adds:
TT would be unwise to move toward
this end h%eadlong. with reckless haste.
or with strokes that cut at the very
roots of what has grown up amongst
us by long process M at our own in
vttatinn. 1t does not alter a thing to
upset 1t and break it n deprive it of
a chance to change. 1t destroys it.
We must make changes in our fiscal
laws. in u fiscal system. whose OBJ
'5ect is development, a more free and
wholesome development, not revolu-
ton or upset or confusion"
These are wise words coming from
the president on the eve of what
promises to be a most radical change
in the laws which reach to the very
foundation, of Americas system OF
business and commerce, They are
words that will make the entire coun-
try breathe easier. What is to be
done will be done, taking into full
consideration the effect 1t will have or
business. They will have the effect
Of maintaining confidence and avoid
ing any tendency toward panic.

Two large audiences were very
much pleased last night at the repeat
ed by request production of Faust
and 1t was In capable hands. The
Grand Stock Co. was at home in the
piece and the work OF Ed Loffler as
Mephisto was excellent, while Miss
Nell Vernon made a beautiful and
modest Marguerite and read her lines
distinctly and well. Jack Carlton as
Faustus proved himself capable to the
part and earned words of praise for
hts work. Miss Madge Carson as
Martha was also at home, but for
some reason the dialogue between her
and the devil was somewhat cut. 1t
is one OF the best parts Of. the drama
Ed. Borman had his scenery working
nicely and the company under the di-
rection of Mr. Halliday showed up ex-
ceedingly well. It was q splendid pro-
duction and the scenic and electrical
effect were eve surpassed in the
city. The piece will be repeated to-
night and Wednesday evening
