looking for other jobs. There are hold

Here in Minot business is going
along nicely. There's something for
us all to do. Merchants have done a
very nice business and will do some
more. Grain men tell us that there
are no less than 100000 bushels of
wheat in the country tributary to Mi
not to be marketed and at $1.15 a
bushel, this represents big sum. Be
thankful that you live in one of Gods
most favored spots.

Bismarck early in January for their
regular session. Senator Albert Mel
son, of Rolette, publisher of the Ro-
lette Examiner, is the only newspaper
man in the Senate. He was in the
Senate two years ago and made a
rather brilliant record.
S. Tn. Westdal, who publishes a
breezy little weekly out at Charlson
in Mckenzie county, has just been
elected to the lower house and Luther
H. Bratton, editor and publisher of the
Rugby Optimist, is another member
of the lower house, who will serve his
second term. Mr.. Bratton distinguish

the legislature and is certain to give q
good account of himself during the
coming session. He publishes one of
the best weekly newspapers in the
state, his editorials being widely pub
lished over the state.

the Kaiser's army numbers several
millions and more are training. The
Allies may have lost nearly as many.
England has placed two million men
in the field and will have half million
more ready for the spring campaign.
Just how long the war will last is q
problem. Such writer's as Cobb and
Frederick Palmer, who are at the
front, predict that it will last for three
years from the time it started. The
Saturday Evening Post, in an editor
ial, goes on record as believing that it
will not last year, for the reason that
all sides will become so Disguised ut
the senseless struggle and loss Of life
at that time as to lay down their arms.

The total value of the states crop
for 1914, according to the United
States Department of Agriculture, is
$144, 1877 $40, or an increase of about
40 per cent of the total value a year
ago. To be more exact, the crop this
year was worth $3s,s30, 600 over the
aggregate value of the 1918 crop. This
was due not only to an increase in
crop acreage and yields, but to the
advance in prices, owing to the Euro
pean war. The per capita increased
wealth based on wheat, corn, oats, bar
ley, flax, rye, potatoes and hay is over
$3.50. This is a record that will make
the world take notice. North Dakota
is surely wealthy state.

The editor of a paper in this vicin-
ity was recently married and has sized
up the matrimonial situation some
thing after this fashion: Editor and
wife disagree with one another. She
sets things to rights, and he writes
things to set; she reads what others
write, and he writes what others read;
she keeps the devil out of the house as
much as possible, while he retains him
and couldn't 60 to press without him;
she knows more than she writes, and
he writes more than he knows" It
seems as though he had the situation
sized up just about "write.'

There are some things a levelhead-
ed human being should never do.
Among these is to kindle the fire with
kerosene oil, to walk on the railroad
track or attempt to get on a moving
train, to point a gun or revolver at
another, to put his name on another
mans note, to keep his savings in a
stocking under the bed, to play a game
of chance with prepossessing strang-
er; to run for Office when he has a
paying position in private life, to call
a bigger man than himself a liar.

Many of our older people remember
when about sixty years ago, the first
stoves were used. Prior to that time
fire places were used not only for
cooking but to heat the house. People
looked with suspicion on the first
stoves and many of the early buyers
first set the stoves up out in the yards,
kindling a fire in them to see how the
critters" would act.

The cost to the government will am

would be unable to put in a crop in
