variety. The rye pasture is good for
cattle and hogs. When through pas
turing, pillow the land and got the ben.

SERUM AGAINST HOG CHOLERA.
Hog cholera serum will make a hog
immune to hog cholera for four weeks.
The time to use serum Is just when the
cholera breaks out. Hogs treated with
serum at this time become immune for
a long time. some for life. In order
to treat at this time, have a supply OF
serum on hand. The method sugges-'
ted by the North Dakota Experiment
| Station is that several farmers go to-
Sether and buy a quantity OF serum
and keep it on ice; when the hog chol-
era breaks out the serum is right at
hand SO the hogs can be treated at
once. The State Serum Laboratory
at the North Dakota Experiment Sta.
zion has tested serum which can be Sc
cured by North Dakotans at Sl.37 per
100 &C. Forty &C., or So cents worth
is enough for treating q l0O-lb. hog.
DON'T GIVE AWAY SCREENINGS.
Screenings make good feed for hogs
and sheep. Better fan the grain and
keep the screenings at home to make
hogs that bring good money. At the
North Dakota Experiment Station it
has been found that they give about
as good gains as grain. When the
screenings are left in the grain, the
other fellow screens them out and sells
them for a good price.
CORN FOR SILO.
The best stage to put corn in the silo
is when nearly ripe. 1t contains the
most feed at this time, and also makes
the best ensilage. When corn is put
in the silo too immature it makes a
a more acid ensilage, as we'll as a less
nutritious one.

North Dakota Towns
Fight for Life.

The Rolette Record of recent date
carried the following editorial COM
ment upon community life which it viii
be noted gives briefly a strong argu-
ment for the necessity for supporting
the home community in place of the
mail order house. The Record says:
Towns and Communities have per-
sonalities and individual characters
just the same as do the citizens Of
which they are made. In fact the
character of the community Is precise
ly determined by the character of its
citizens. Hence when a citizen finds
something wrong with his community
and wishes to complain about it he
may criticiss himself. The community
has no existence independently of the
citizens Of which IL Is composed. Ev-
cry defect in it II pursued to Its ult-
mate sourc will lead right up to the
front door of its citizens.
"Let any one ask what makes q
town and no is bound to answer,
Trade, business Take away the
trade OF a town and you take away the
life OF the town itself-the air lit
breathes, the food it onsume The
avenues Of trade arr to the community
exactly what the blood vessels are to
the human body.
Tho retail store rs Q way station in
the channels of trade is an indispensa.
BILE factor in perpetuating the com.
mercial life OF q community. With the
destruction of the commercial life OF
the central town or city of q commun-
ity all other forms of social life must
cease to exist. because they all depend
upon the m and trade. For
this reason the citizen needs the town
fully as much as the town needs the
citizen. Let him moi suppose that in a
few packages he carries home from the
local store ire contained all the things
he received for the money he passes
over the counter OF the local mer.
chants. Substantially all the com
forts and conveniences OF modern civ.
ilized society is passed out to him in
return for his patronizing his home
merchants. The surest way to de.
prive himself OF those facilities and
environments that make life worth liv.
ing, is to withdraw his patronage
from the local town"
1t is high time that North Dakotans
shall think carefully of the wisdom
contained 10 the above. The mail or.
der evil is present in the state-it is
cutting down the efficiency and growth
of every community in North Dakota.
A Fargo newspaper is authority for
the statement that at least five hundred
tons Of mail order -catalogs will be-
sent out from Fargo by the big east
ern mail order houses this fall. Think
Of it!-1,0O0, 600 pounds of catalogs, q
total of about thirty.hve carloads, OF
one freight train load of catalogs! Il
that money sent ast because of those
books was spent in North Dakota,
many dollars would bs added to til,
wealth OF every acre of land in thu
state because of the additional devel
opment and growth at home.

August 10Th, 1914.
Miss Kate Devereux Blake. has just
completed her trip across the north
eru part of the state in the interest OF
suffrage. Everywhere she was enthu-
s%iastically received and never failed
to delight her audiences.
Snffragists are bound to leave no
stone unturned. AT the recent State
Tennis Tournament held on the Island
Park courts at Fargo, might be e

kota Women November Sd, 1914"
Mrs. Antoinette Funk, National
Suffrage worker and OF note,
is to give seven days to the North Da.
kot campaign. Her dates are Septem-
Der l5th-23d. Mrs. Funk has spent
much time in Washington, D. c., lob
bying for the National Suffrage

famous FOUR who represented the
Illinois Sufragists at Springfield last
year when they succeeded in winning
the ballot.
Recently Headquarters was SUR
prised and touched upon receiving .
donation OF of sl42. IS. part Of a lega-
cy left by Miss Mary Anthony for "a
state that would win" Miss Anthony
was a poor little school teacher who
from earliest youth had saved a small
portion of every dollar she earned
just for this one cause. Her legacy
was a thousand dollars, but as the
trustees could not be SURE which state
would win, voted to split it evenly be-
tween the seven campaign states.
Should not such a sacrifice as this lit
tie woman's bring home to US the
great seriousness OF this question?
Mrs. F. J.Van Fleet, Of Larimore.
we'll known in many parts Of the state
for her work with Anti Tuberculosis,
has begun a months campaign work
for suffrage. She has been spending
a successful week in the Grand Forks

McCumber, of University. and Mrs.
James Collins, OF Grand Forks. At

the Chicago branch OF the National
Suffrage Association a package OF
beautiful post cards bearing the pic
turs OF q melting pot, with the in
scription, For Our Sisters in the
Suffrage Campaign States" This va,
q charming reminder Of how much our
winning the franchise means, not only
to North Dakota but to every state in
the Union.
Miss Kate Devereux Blake very
generously stayed over an extra day
in Fargo in order that she might talk
to the newly organized Young Wo.
mans Club. She proved to be jus
the person to encourage them. and the
girls are now looking forward eagerly
to the next two months campaign.

When DIR. Cabot Lull, summoned
about 1.55 o'clock, reached the resi-

DAUGHTERS OF AMERICAN REVOLUTION

There are several members of the
Daughters of the American Revolution
in Pensacola and there seems now a
prospect of a chapter being organized
here. There is a growing interest in
this patriotic society all ever Florida,
and Pensacola with her historic past
has never been lacking in patriotism.
With a present membership of over
100000 women and a large increase
every year. this great society is
q power in the land, and has al
ready worked wonders along the lines
of patriotic education and the several
objects for which 1t stands.
The work of the society in Florida
began with a chapter organized at
Jacksonville, followed by a chapter at
St Augustine, Tampa, Orlando. Day

St Petersburg
