donated as much as fifty bushels
others twenty-five and from those
figures down to one bushel.
The boys feel the need Of a dormi-
tory almost as badly as the girls. They
have waited for twenty-five years for
the state to construct one and this not
having been done they have started
the unique campaign, which has ap-
pealed strongly to many friends Of the
institution.
Such a dormitory would last a half
a. century and would be a monument
to the farmers Of the state who are
deeply interested in the college which
they regard particularly as their
school.
The committee is endeavoring to in
duce ESQ farmers to give fifty bushels,
500 to give twenty-five bushels, 1000
to give ten bushels 5000 to give five
bushels. These donations with the
the thousands who will donate a
bushel should easily erect the build
ing.

Treaty Which Gave Norway to Sweden.

One hundred years ago the repre-
sentatives Of England, Sweden and
Denmark concluded at Kiel o treaty
by which Denmark was forced to cede
Norway to Sweden, n by which
Sweden, in return, gave up Pomerania
to Denmark. England magnanimously
restored to Denmark all the conquests
made in the East and West Indies-all
territory, in short, that had been oc-
cupied by British troops, excepting
Heligoland. The treaty was not wholly
satisfactory to either the Danes, the
Norwegians. Q the Swedes. Pome-
rama was too distant to form a suit
able appendage to the Danish terri
tory, and was exchanged for a sum Of
money and a small district adjoining
Holstein. Pomerania thus came into
the possession of Prussia, as one Of
the fruits of the peace pact. The Nor
wegians. while glad to be freed from
to resist the annexation Of their coun-
try by Sweden. On May IL following.
they declared their independence, but
their means Of resistance were small.
and the SWedes. while dispatching
troops to Norway, offered liberal
terms. Charles Frederic, Duke Of Hoi-
stein. was elected king of Norway, but
he abdicated in October. 1914. and in
the following month Charles XIII OF
Sweden was proclaimed king by the
national diet assembled at Christiania,
BY the terms Of the union between
Norway and Sweden, the latter ac-
cepted the constitution promulgated
by the former at the time of the dec
laration of independence. This docu-
ment made Norway "a free. indepen-
dent, indivisible kingdom. united
with Sweden under the same king.
This dynastic tie was cut in 1906. when.
Norway elected q king Of its own.
NorWegianS are planning a. great
celebration for May III next, the cen
tenary of the declaration Of indepen-
dence and the promulgation Of the
constitution at Eidsvold. One of the
proposed features of the observance il
the legal abortion of a new language
as the official tongue of NorWegians

about three-score years 6 by Aasen.

he adopted. Tt embraces much that

THE SECRET or SUCCESS
Genuine Merit Required to Win
the Peoples Confidence

Have you ever stopped to reason why
It is, that 80 many products that are sx-
tensively advertised, all at once drop
out Of sight and are soon forgotten?
The reason Is p~lain--the article did not
fulfil the promises of the manufacturer.
This applies more particularly to q
medicine. A medicinal preparation that
has real curative value almost sells
itself, as like an endless chair system
the remedy is recommended by those
who have been benefited, to those who
are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for In
almost every case it shows excellent
results, as many of my customers tes-
fifty. No other kidney remedy thai I
KNOW OF has so large a sale"
according to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who
have used the preparation, the SUCCESS
OF DR.. kilmers swamp-Root Is due to
the fact that it fulfiIs. almost every
wish In overcoming kidney, liver II
bladder diseases, corrects urinary
roubles n neutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.

ANGL0-GERMAN RECORD

New York Journal Of Commerce.:
Probably nothing would contribute
so powerfully to the promotion of the
cause of peace the world over as the
establishment of a good understand
ing between England and Germany.
There are various evidences that irri-
tating questions between the two ma
tions are in process of settlement.
Even the silly statement that the I'M
Outstanding between Great Britain
and Germany for non-participation in
the Panama-Pacific exposition ex-
tends to opposition to financial and
commercial activities Of the United
States, particularly in South America,
may be accepted as a straw showing
the direction of the wind. 1t would be
difficult to imagine anything more
~preposterous than an agreement on
the part of London and Berlin ito
| combat the United States In every
thing connected with the extension of
trade and commerce. and the state
ment that the ~refusal,to participate in
the Panama-Paciic Worlds Fair is
merely a minor incident in a far
reaching programme does not render
1t any less absurd. But the spirit of
international agreement must be in
the air to give birth or any semblance

A FoRcEFuL LESSON.

1t was q comparatively inexpensive
but oven now one mans life hangs in
the balance, and there was consid-
Herable destruction of property, to say
nothing Of the wear and tear on
nerves. Reference is made to the
street car accident at the Thirteenth
street north crossing Of the Great
Northern.
1t is to be hoped, however, that the
lesson has been driven home with suf-
tfcient force, so that another will never
be needed. There have been lessons
at hat crossing before, but they have
gone u~nheeded. Several times a fear
full catastrophe has been averted there
by inches.
This crossing has become one OF the
most dangerous in the city. The num-
Der Of Great Northern trains running
through Fargo has been greatly in
creased in the past few years and
there are times when they come shoot
ing over this crossing almost follow
jng each other.
The lesson that should have been
obvious long & is for the street car
men NEVER TO TAKE A CHANCE
WITH HUMAN LIFE,
There should never be any consider

needless chance Of having those en-
arusted to his charge killed or main

fifteen minutes, rather than take a

Contrasting Agricultural Reports.

Chicago Post: A vivid idea of the
change which has taken place in our
ideas Of the functions of government
within he last year or two may be
gained by contrasting the report of
the present secretary of agriculture
with that Of his predecessor.
Mr.. Wilson's reports were volumin-
Gus documents, written in a technical
style and dealing with facts ascer-
tanned by the department of agricul-
ture.
Mr.. Houston's report is more prag-
matte. 1t is a sociological and eco

of p~lausibility to such a canard. More
to- the purpose, however, is Herr Won
Bethmann Hollweg's letter to Profess
sor Lamprecht, and a recent speech of
the imperial chancellor in the reich
stag. The letter was a ~philosophic
analysis of some points of English and
French superiority In the pursuit of
national ideals, over the equipment of
the less congruous German people. It
must be reckoned a highly significant
criticism and confession, coming from
a man occupying the position Of Herr
Won Hollweg that "the Ger
mans are a young people with, per-
haps, too innocent a belief In force
and too little an appreciation Of he
finer methods and they do not vet
know that force alone has never been
able to maintain what force has won"
In his reichstag speech, the chancellor
complimented the policies of England
and France in regard to the Balkans.
and said that the German government
was, therefore. justified in hoping that
there is no prospect of political strife

RETURNING FROM CANADA,

North, Dakota has lost MANY citi-
zens to Canada in the past. Lured by
the "yender-grass' across the border.
many have left this state for the
Canadian northwest. But the tide has
turned. The Duluth Herald comments
as follows:
The United States commissioner of
immigration in Montreal estima tes
that two hundred thousand people who
emisrated from the United States Ia
Canada will return to their native
land this year. His statistics show
also tlat d hundred n fifty thou
sand returned to this country from
canada in 1913. So it Is apparent that
h rush from the United States ia
canada is over, and that the tide is
Hurned.
Returning emigrants, asked the
Eusual questions at the border, revealed
Hhe fact that the overwhelming ma :
.Jority are from northwestern Canada,
and that they crossed into Canada

Safety Organization Gets Results,

Atlanta Journal: One of the most
noteworthy and gratifying facts in
the record is that not d child in At
lanta or its vicinity was killed or in
jured by a street car during the en-
tire twelve months Of 1913, and acct
dents of any character were conspic-
uously few. For this good showing
much credit Is due the Public Safety
league which was organized last jan
uary and enelistd among it's most &C
tive members the pupils and teachers
OF the public schools, street car Of
11cials. motormen and conductors. The
children adopted as their motto,
Don't get run over" and the motor
men n conductors as theirs. Safe
ty first, safety always" The earnest
ness with which these principles were
lived up to is witnessed in the happy
record.

a pisqraee, indeed,

Baltimore News: DIR. Joseph A,
Holmes, director OF the bureau of
mines, says that the death rate among
miners in 1913 was about Is per cent
greater than in 1912. This is a dis
graceful showing. 1t has been real
lied for q long time that the death
rate in American mines was wickedly
excessive compared with the expert
ence Of other countries. But that
there should be such a striking in
Ia in 1913. right on the heels of
the creation Of the bureau Of mines
and the passage of legislation to pro-
mote safety is astounding.
