SPIRIT OF UNITY
NOW RULING SPIRIT
I IN CAPITAL CITY

Much has been said of recent years
about the surprising building growth
Of Bismarck by those who have not
visited the city for some time pass,
but one of the best things said OF the
Capital City was expressed by a EN-
Der of the legislature, who was here
a day or two ago on private business,
but who did not care to be quotCA.
81 am nightly pleased said the
legislator, TO note not only the won.
derful growth and Improvement in
the character OF Bismarck's business
and residence buildings, but have
been agreeably surprised during my
stay this time, by the general BOOST
spirit exhibited on all sides. In 9TH
er days I could not have commented
favorably on this element in your
people. Then there vas considerable
discord of one kind OF another, u
now a complete change is apparent
and the pessimist of the olden day is
now full of enthusiasm and certainty
as to Bismarck's future as a splendid
business location and a good town in
which to live. | note many OF, the
i%nternecile ifeuds common to all live
towns, seem to have nearly died out,
and in their place a concert of action
is apparent that impresses the VISIT,
or most %agreeably. OF course, you
have your local disturbances, occa.
siolally, like all the other towns, bun
l see an influence of optimism has
grown up which Grawsi all your citi-
zels together in matters of common
interest and betterment. Everywhere
a substantial public spirit is abroad
in the town, with the result that you
have all the public utilities-and well
served at that-and comforts possess
ed by cities Of the East four times as
large. All the frontier ideals seem to
have been exploded, and l know OF
no town in North Dakota more order
ly conducted or cleaner than Bis.

to Is years ago, when ! put in two
strenuous months trying to make
laws in an atmosphere totally at vari-
ance with law. g

Before the invasion was taken in
hand as a serious policy, there had
been at least a profession of q belief
that the fotilla could push across the
channel during a calm. Experience
soon showed that when the needful
allowance was made for the time re-
quired to bring them out of harbor

which the channel currents must have
upon their speed, it would be extreme
ly rash to rely on a calm Of sufficient
length. Napoleon therefore came
early to the conclusion that he must
bring about a concentration of his
seagoing feet in The channel, which
would give him a temporary com.
mand Of its waters"
This concentration Napoleon found
it impossible to achieve. The in.
vasion plan was finally brought to
naught by the great victory OF Nelson
over the French and Spanish fleet at
Trafalgar. " 0..

foregoing was conceded at the argu
ment Of the motion.
1t was sought to- support the
jurisdiction of the. court, however, up
on the fact that the defendant hat
filed with the secretary Of state =:
power OF attorney appointing that OF
tcer its attorney for the service O.
process in all actions against the com
pany in the state. Since the argu
ment, counsel for plaintiffs nave pre-
scented to the court a certified cop,
of the power of attorney. It appear!
that the instrument was executed IL
purported compliance with the pro
visions Of the state statute above re
ferred to. The, provisions of tina
statute requiring the filing of power
Of attorney, as part Of its scheme
must fall with the other provision:
of the statute in SO far as it relate;
TO citizens doing interstate commerce
business.
1t was further sought to support
the jurisdiction upon the ground thai
the general statute of North Dakota
requires foreign corporations doing
business within the state to file such
a power of attorney appointing the
secretary Of state it's agent for the
service Of process. Upon the show
ing made that defendants business is
confined exclusively to interstate
commerce, l do not think it falls
within the plrview of the general
statute requiring foreign corporations
to file a power Of attorney. This
was the holding of the supreme court
Of the state in the case of Sucker
State Drill Co. VS.. Writ, II. N. D. 313
I do not think, therefore, that the in.
strument filed with the secretary Of
state can in any view make the de-
PENDANT subject to the, service of pro
cess il this state.
1t is therefore, ordered, That. the
motion be, and the same is hereby
granted and service OF process upon
the defendant is quashed and the. ac
ton dismissed. N III.

his lady mother has made his gar

pleasant task to those who make a
business of it, he looks like all his
mates in the democracy Of boyhood,
The little boy must be clothed in the
summertime in washable fabrics. The
difficult feat of teaching him to keep
clean Is a part OF his education, ex-
actly as essential as teaching him to
read. For daily wear he romps in
blouses and short pants made in wash
able colored fabrics, such as ging-
ham, linens, crash, madras and other
strong weaves. Heavy linens and
piques and certain specially woven cot
ton fabrics in white are required for
his dress occasions.
These fabrics are SO inexpensive
and the little suits are SO easily made
that 1t is no great task to make UP his
short-lived summer wardrobe. But
manufacturers turn out quantities Of
clothes for children, well designed
and we'll made, at a cost Of production
SO low that 1t is hardly worth while
to make them at home.

fortify their wearer against a chill.
The cool air, dropping down from
frosty mountain tops, and breezes that
have travelled from the land Of ice
bergs to that Of seaside hotels, are
the reasons for the existence Of sweat
ers. They stand daily use, and manu-
facturers are endeavoring to make
them attractive, and have, in fact, sue
ceeded in doing some very beautiful
knitting. 1t would not do to get too
far away from simplicity, and 1t is in
new ways of knitting that the best Of
new attractions lie.
The sweater for a little girl, shown
here, could hardly be palmer. A close
ly knitted border and a pocket at each
side are not purely decorative figures,
but they afford all the details Of orna-
mentation except the border of fancy
knitting about the bottom.

One of their best efforts is shown
in the illustration given with this ar
ticle. 1t is a suit of white pique with
plain short pants and belted blouse.
The blouse opens over a small -'fV"-
shaped vest which allows a bit of dec
grafton in the form of a spray of lit
tie flowers and leaves embroidered In
white. The sailor collar is finished
with scallops edged with buttonhole
stitch, instead of a hem. This is about
all the decorating that one may ex-
pect to find in even the dressiest garb
for the small boy.
In order that the blouse may set
we'll a few ~boxplaits run from shout
der to hem. The loose belt, of the
fabric, is slipped through narrow
straps, also of the pique. The belt
drops toward the front and may be
fastened with a buckle or clasp fasten-

holes. The sleeves are rather full and
short enough to escape the wrist.

where mornings and evenings bring

These smart garments are selling
freely at figures which rather take

thirty dollars each seems a high price
for a sweater of any sort, But there

Marketing the Eggs
Farmers Can Obtain a High Price by
Forming Cooperative Societies
By A. cw1mr Asst in Poultry Hn.b.ndy College of Agriculture University of Missouri

One of the hest ways in which to
bring about better prices is the organi-
cation of cooperative egg societies.
One of these societies may be formed
by 20 or more farmers in a district, or
ganizing, appointing officers and a
through the society. BY this means
great improvement has almost in
variably resulted. In Minnesota and
Wisconsin several egg societies are in
active operation. AS a result the
members in those states are realizing
from 8 to 5 cents a dozen more for
their eggs than they would get
through the local trade. If this result
was accomplished in Missouri it would
mean the saving of over $3,000,0 900.
The formation of cooperative egg
societies is simple. A set of rules and
a constitution should be drawn up in
which the members agree to sell all
their eggs not used at home through
the society; to remove the male birds,
after the breeding season, from the
flock; to gather the eggs daily and
store in a cool, dry place; to use no
nest eggs except artificial ones of lime
or china; to market at least twice a
week in the summer months, and to
sell only naturally clean, sound eggs
of fair size and shape. A manager
should be appointed whose duties con
sist in finding a good market to col
lect or receive the eggs, pack ana
ship, and pay out the money received
to the members. Membership fees are

The Missouri farmer can save 3d.
100000 worth of eggs annually.
The old, careless methods of caring
for poultry should go. Three things
should be done for the most profitable
results:
Produce infertile eggs during the
summer;
Take proper care of the eggs ON the
farm;
Market as often as possible.
Marketing often, at least twice a
week, is essential to obtain the best
results.
The custom of the farmer is to

USE Of TILE IN MISSOURI
Experiments Show That in the North.
eastern Part Of the State 1t Is a
Paying Proposition.

There is no doubt that for the wet
sloughs or says found in the north
east Missouri region, the use of tile is
q very paying proposition. On the
level prairie where the water passes
to the tile more slowly, it is necessary
to lay the tile from four to six rods
apart for satisfactory work, thus great
ly increasing the cost. Where the
land is very level and where the tile
are properly put in, the thing of this
land will pay. On the prairie land
that drains naturally, whether or not
it will pay will depend upon the crops
grown and the particular character of
the land.
The profitable thing of land in any
case depends upon how much it needs
drainage and the efficiency with which
the tile work. Usually on land that
grows fair crops without tile, on all
except the wettest years, such as is
the case with most of the level prairie
of northeast Missouri, the use of tile
is delayed until the value of the land
increases. AS lands become higher in
value, the rather poorly drained land
stands at a disadvantage and drainage
becomes economical. Such is already
the case on a great deal of this level
prairie.
Where the land is very level and it
is difficult to secure a proper fall, it
Is usually necessary to have the
Following is the result of the first
! years experiment work on the i'm
provements through use of pure-bred
rams carried on at the college OF ag-
riculture of the University of Mis-
souri,: The average daily gain Of lambs
sired by the pure-bred ram was Sc
per cent greater than that Of the
lambs sired by the inferior ram. The
former had gained 2.54 pounds more
at three months of age than the lat
ter at four months. The lambs from
the interior ram required 88.78 pounds
Of grain per 100 pounds gain. The
lambs from the pure-bred ram re-
CURED only 52.81 pounds. Lambs sired
by the pure-bred ram sold for $7.35
per hundred pounds, while those sired
by the scrub sire brought only $3.50
per hundred pounds.

gather all the Immediately available
products that may be sold. This is
done each week or two, The wife
brings out her basket of eggs from
the hot kitchen Or pantry or from
some other place exposed to heat or
dampness. A search under sheds or
corn-cribs brings to light stolen nests.
These eggs, fresh or old and stale,
clean or dirty, large or small, are all
turned in and the country store mer-
chant buys the lot. On the journey to
the store the eggs are often exposed
to the heat of the sun all the way.
Last summer 7 cents a dozen for
eggs was a common price in some dis
tricts in this state. Some farmers in
the same districts, who practiced bust
ness-like methods with their poultry,
secured II cents. 1t is important to
market good eggs. 1t is also impor-
tant to get the highest market price
for these eggs. With the present
methods Of marketing this is impos-
sible.
The common practice is to sell to
the local dealer. He buys the eggs
and the farmer takes it out in trade"
The dealer feels obliged to take the
eggs whether good, bad or Indifferent,
and pays the same price for all. This
system is called "case-count' or buy
ing as they run. The "~case-count' or
"fat-rate" system of buying eggs dis
courages the production of good eggs.
When bad eggs receive the same price
as good eggs, no inducement is given
to improve the quality. 1t is only by
the introduction of the "loss-of" sys-
tenn that marketing conditions may be
improved. Then a premium will be
paid for good eggs, and eggs of poor
quality will either be refused or taken
at a lower price.
