GETS NATIONAL ATTENTION
Great Farm Paper of North
west Urges Readers to
Visit the Valley City
Assembly. "a.

az have visited scores Of Chautau
squas in all parts of the United States
said p. G. Holden, the American Corr
King" when he visited the Valley City
Assembly last summer. "but know
of none that is doing the great work
which your Chautauqua here at Valley
City is doing" This is how the local
Assembly impressed one of Americas
greatest men.
Another indication of the great ma
tional work which is being done by
the local institution whose fame is
spreading beyond state bounds, is the
following editorial which appeared in
the June l issue of the Dakota Farm
Ger, published at Aberdeen, S. D.. and
which under the editorial direction of
w. C. Allen is one of the great farm
papers of the United States.
mo coming event promises more
for the young people of North Dakota
farms than the three weeks assembly
at the Valley City ChautauQua grounds
June rs to July IL. A monster steel
auditorium costing nearly $4,000 has
ibeen contracted for and will be COM
pleted IN time for the great summer
assembly. lover So, 900 has been rails
ed in gifts to back this Chautauqua,
two farmers alone contributing $1,000
each toward the equipment for the
farm boys and girls part Of it. a..

1girls competent instruction along agri-
cultural lines for the entire seventeen
days making this along with the many
high class Chautauqua features, one
OF, if not the greatest agricultural sum
mer school in the world.
"The beautiful wooded hills and val
ley, along one of the prettiest streams
of the west, makes this an ideal loca-

know where there are prettier shaded
walks and drives, or more beautiful
floating waters than in and tributary

CLEAN
YOUR
GRAIN

At the present rate of growth, crops
are going to ripen early this year, and
they promise to be very heavy too.
You are going to need SAFE storage!
to protect your grain until
you sell it. If you haven't plenty Of
storage room, this will be a good year,
to build new granary. 1t should in
clude room where you can clean
your grain as well as store it. 1t will
pay you to do this. The material and
labor necessary to put up good gran
airy with a cleaning room and equip
it with cleaning machinery probably
won't cost much more than what you
will save on dockage this year, and
in the following years it will add a
great deal to your net profits.
Let me figure with you on plans and
a bill of material for a new granary
right away.
R. E. DRESSER. Agt, spiritwood.
We want you to plan on bringing US
ALL of your grain this year. II you
have never brought us any of your
grain in the past, now is good time
to find out what kind Of deal you
will get. Bring us your last load of
grain and let us show you what kind
of prices we pay and how we treat our
customers.

Commission Wants Pay Held Up.

Denver.-The Civil Service Commits
sion has served notice that the bills
for the pay of House and Senate en-
ployes will not be approved or paid
unless the persons appointed to these
positions first take the civil service ex-
animation. 1t required three months
for the commission to rate the papers
in the examination of applicants for
the position of state boiler inspection
which situation promises another tan
gle in the complicated net of affairs
at the state houss.
The Colorado statesman., 1914-05-16

There are some sixty thousand ne
groes in Chicago. The number has
doubled in the last Is years. This in
crease has come almost wholly from
the South. This fact has to be con-
sidered in every problem which has
to do with church comity The social
and economic pressure which stimu-
lated this migration is increasingly
active in spite of the fact that in the
last ten years the negro has gradually
lost almost every occupation that was
originally his in the northern cities.
Chicago, however, still has the repu-
tation "of offering the largest liberty
to all citizens of all colors and Ian
guages of any community in the
North
Over forty-five thousand of these
