Fargoans, who have not had the
pleasure of an auto trip to Lisbon and
a visit with the hospitable and pro-
gressive residents of the beautiful city
on the Sheyenne, have missed some
thing in life.
An auto trip down there at this sea-
son of the year is a revelation. The
roads are excellent and they run
through some of the finest country in
North Dakota.
Southern Cass and Ransom counties
were pioneers in diversified farming.
The agriculturalists shifted from small
grain to corn, alfalfa, and began to
raise livestock. All along the route,
in addition to the magnificent fields
Of golden grain, there are splendid
acreages of as fine corn as ever grew
out of doors. Large fields of POTATOES,
great stretches of luXuriant alfalfa,
fat herds of beef and dairy cattle, pas
lures filed with excellent types of
horses, hogs and sheep, are some of
the pleasant things that greet the eyes
of the tourists n increase ones con-
hdenCe in the great possibilities Of
North Dakota.
/ Splendid Farming Community.
Along the route between here and
the city of Lisbon are substantial farm
homes with great red barns, beautiful
groves and other attractions. One is
also greatly impressed with the large
amount Of fruit through the country.
Practically every farmer has an apple
orchard, and there are immense guam
titles of CurrantS, gOOseberries, raSp-
berries and splendid gardens. indi-
eating the bountiful supply Of good
things the farmers possess.
The City of Lisbon.
Approaching the city of Lisbon, one
is impressed with the great natural
beauties of the town. Nesting in the
wide curve of the Sheyenne, with an
abundance of timber along the river
and splendid shade trees all over the
city, Lisbon is far from being what
strangers imagine is a typical western
town. 1t recalls some beautiful city
of the east rather than a prairie Sec
ton. The surrounding hills, with their
rugged prominence and the terraced
effect left by different geological per-
iods of the past ages give Lisbon an
unique setting not possessed by any
other city of the state.
Lisbon Is a clean and wholesome city
that at once favorably imIresses a
visitor. It is thoroughly modern, with
electric lights. water and sewer sys-
TENS, we'll kept streets, beautifully
shaded cement sidewalks and other
advantages. It's up-to-date white way
is an attractive feature.
Its residents, as the writer found,
are hospitable to the stranger and it
doesn't AXE the visitor long te dis
cover that its business men are pro-
gressive and enterprising.
Many New Buildings.
Lisbon Is just now undergoing a
building period. It is not a boom. 1t
is more. 1t is the natural growth and
development of a substantial town
surrounded by n Of the best farm
ing regions of the state. Several bust
ness houses are in process Of con.
struction. These are large and indica-
| tive of the volume Of trade done al

History.

Life: History is not the most inter-
esting guess about something that may
or may not nave happened. Interest
ing guessess can usually be classed with
fiction at once and be done with it. But
1T is the solemnly asserted, painfully
detailed and plausibly argued guesses
that cause all the trouble and I'LL the
u~nsuspecttng minds OF young folks
with chronicles of events hat could
not possibly have taken place.
One Of the first duties of a rising
young histrian. as he starts upon his
mad guessing career, Is to prove that
his predecessors could guess with
marvellous e~rroneousness, Just as Sig
nor Ferrero has recently annulled pref
ty nearly everything about Greece M
Rome which was learned so assiduously
by college students Of a generation ago.
Those of us who sighted our history
at that time are better off today for we
have less to forget. 1t Is a splendid
thing to know something about our n
cestors but how are we to find out

oh, for something interesting.

Minneapolis Tribune: 1t is a hot day.
There's nothing to do. If we lived in
New Zealand, now, or some other coun-
try that was picturesque, we could sit
on our porches and see something in
teresting. But here in Minneapolis
Sit on your porch tomorrow morning
about half past seven. Turn the spray
of your hose so that it touches the low
branches of a tree and covers the shady
gsass with little pearls Of dew. Watch
for a minute or two.
After a while will come a sparrow to
get a drink. A cry will sound among
the branches, and a jay, brilliant in
blue and proud in airs, will drop down
and drive away the sparrow. His mate
will follow shortly, keeping well in the
background, as is the wont of good
mothers, and the two Of them will stick
their beaks into their feathers, ruffle
their coats and splash around in their
shower bath very like the human birds
you battle at night.
Now comes a stranger-strange to
you, but a true friend to all bird low
ers. He Is whatever you choose to call
him. Because throughout America the
children, little and big, have given hin
thirty-six names. He is half again as
big as the robin. His back is wonder
fully striped in brown and red and
yellow and black. His u~nderbody is
yellow as a lemon. And he has a
crown of vivid scarlet.
Some Of us call him a ,""yellowham-

winged woodpecker,' the "%clate," the
pigeon woodpecker," the high hole
the high holder" the "yarup," the
wake up" the "yellow-shafted wood
pecker," and goodness knows what
else!
The jays do not mind him as they
did the sparrows. They seem to ex-
pect his mate to futter down, showing
the gold of her underwings, as, in
deed, she does in half a minute. Quite
~leisurely they have their bath, stopping
now and then to sail to the tree trunk
and shake their feathers while stand
ing head downwards. One of them
sings-a song in sweet contrast to the
rasping note of the jays and the peep

scribed 1t as 1.-The sound of a willow

whether, after all, it is needful to teal
yourself away and go down to the

WAR N n x

While comparatively few Of the for
! eign countries had arranged to exhibit
at the big Panama exposition at San
Francisco next year, a few of them
were to have displays. If all Europe
is to become involved in a long ex-
tended conflict, there will be little in
Iterest taken in the big show by the
residents of the other side.
In fact, the people of the United
States are less likely to display much
interest in the exposition if the pres
{ent serious condition in Europe con-
tinues Indefinitely. From any view
point the trouble will prove harmful
to the big show.
