DAY TO SPEND A HALF HOUR
VISITING MERCHANTS.

Devils Lake will be host Wednes-
day, June 18th, to about 100 enthusiast
tic boosters for Duluth, the thriving
center at the head Of Lake Superior.
The Duluth business men, following
out an established policy Of cultivating
friendly relations with the towns in
the trade territory Of the Zenith City,
will spend six days, beginning June 2

on the main line and all north bran:h.
cs between Grand Forks and Minot,
returning to Duluth over the Fargo
Surrey cutoff.
A special train carrying the boost
ers and the Third Regiment band, one
CT the most famous musical organize
tions in the Northwest, will leave Dew
luth Sunday evening, June LIST. The
train will arrive at Devils Lake, We'd
resday morning at 1925 and will re.
main for one hour, leaving again at
1925.
The stop here is short, but that was
necessary on account of the fact that
the itinerary calls for stops at 14s
owns in the six days the train will be
III the state. However, the Duluthians
will remain long enough in Devils
Lake to be seen, to gain an impression
of the city and to do some boosting
for Duluth. Headed by the band they
will parade from the depot and around
the city, and will then dispense to mix
with Devils Lake people.
The trip of the Duluthians is arrang-
ed for the avowed purpose of making
friends for Duluth, but while making
themselves and their city better known
the travellers will also learn facts
about the towns they visit and about
North Dakota generally, the education
on both sides establishing firm foun-
dation for better mutual understand
ing.

What u Meant When Used by the
italian Postal Official.
"A postofice order was awaiting me
In the postofiice of a small Italian vii
lage," writes a correspondent Of the
Cologne Gazette. II could see the
pleasant little document lying on the
counter. SO l gave my name and asked
for the money.
'aThe official. however. remarked that
that wouldn't do. 'Ah,' thought l. he
wants some proof of identity 20 I
rummaged among my papers and fetch.
ed out my military service paper.
"aThat Is no good at ALL said the
oflcial. because But after the be
cause he stuck. The words refused to
come out, and he merely assumed an
icy 0facial demeanor. All thought L
he can't read the German of my serv-
ice paper so l went away and dragged
in my innkeeper. and he swore with q
mighty oath that l was so and . {.
"AThat is no good ut ALL was all the
man behind the counter vouchsafed,
though he said it with a smile. So l
hurried back to the inn and fetched
further proofs Of my identity-a pass
port, an authenticated copy of a certin-
cate Of nationality and finally even Z
letter from an Italian relative. Surely
the post0fice man would be able to
read them.
THAT is no good at ALL he said,
with another Of his pleasant smiles.
after he had read them, adding that
he was very. very sorry. Naturally I
got angry at this and abused him a.
wall as a limited acquaintance with
foreign terms Of abuse would permit.
"i'That is no good at ALL he said,
with another Of his smiles. as he rat
tied the shutter across the pigeon hole.
Next morning l returned to the charge
only to see the shutter hy across again.

Among the record yield re-
ports sent to the North Dakota
DevelopmentLeague press bur.
eau at Grand Forks, is one
from Billings county which
tells of alfalfa profit. The New
England Herald reports as
follows:
There are few farmers who
can show more real profit from
a small piece of land than NJ.
G. McC affrey of Midway, who
recently threshed his alfalfa
crop. 1t was not a long or
difficult job to harvest and
thresh the alfalfa grown on two
and a half acres of ground, but
375 pounds of nice, clean seed
is worth just about 1915 at the
present market price. a n d
homegrown seed is really
worth more than that shipped
in from other states.
Another thing to be con-
sidered is the alfalfa hay crop
this farmer harvested early in
the season before letting the
second crop go to seed. Sever
al tons of clean alfalfa hay aud
seed worth 1915 off from two
and a half acres of land is we'll
worth special notice.
Mr.. McC affrey sowed the
alfalfa in rows three feet apart.
Part of the ground was seeded
three years ago and the balance
two years ago, and several
tons of hay we're cut last year.
BY putting the crop in rows
it gave a chance to run a cult
vator and this farmer is salts
fed that it is the best way to
handle alfalfa and he believes
that it is a crop that every
farmer should raise"
