North DakoiaUs Fortunate

Grand Forks, Aug. II.
North Dakotans are proud of
their home state and always
appreciate it's advantages, but
at the present time they are
especially impressed with the
fact that it is good to live III
this state. Europeon countries
are in the midst of what prom
ises to be the greatest war in
the worlds history and as "A
consequence business is de-
moralized not alone in foreign
countries but in many portions
of the United States as we'll.
This condition in SO far as the
United States is concerned is
only temporary for as soon as
readjustments can be made.
this country will forge ahead
rapidly because of the demand
that will come for her products.
In North Dakota where food
stuffs are produced, even the
period of readjustment neces-
sary in other sections of the
country where manufacturing <
is more prevalent, is not found
so necessary. This state has
raised a good crop for which
there will be world demand
with a subsequent raise in
price.
The stability of Nortn Dako-
ia is indicated by the fact that
some of her largest banks have
not deemed it necessary to fol-
low the example of the large
centers of the east which went
temporarily upon clearing
house basis and whose example
was followed by the Twin Cit
les and some of the smaller
cities west of Minneapolis. All
Grand Forks banks have con-
tinued business along ordinary
lines, taking care of their coun-
try customers as is usual at
this season and deposits have
increased rather than dimin-
ished within the past month
North Dakota with it's large
production of food stuffs, today
stands in an enviable position
in the business world.

SIMPLE FUNERAL
OF MRS. WILSON
President and Ms Daughters Take
Bsdy 70 Last Resting Place In
Southland

President Wilson made the
saddest journey of his life Mon
day night, In a special train,
bearing the body of Mrs. Will
son to it's final resting place be-
side the gravas of her father
and mother, he is enroute to
Rome, Ca, surrounded by his
daughters and a few members
of his own and his wife's fam
lilies.
The last simple ceremony of
the funeral will take place to-
morrow afternoon in the quiet
wooded cemetery near the
Georgia town, then the pres
ident will turn again to the
heavy burdens of the office and
loneliness at the White House.
While flags dropped at half
mast throughout the capital to-
day thousands of men and wo-
men gathered in the wide ave-
nue. before the closed gates of
the White House grounds,
while first service was held
over the body in the east
room.
In accordance with Mrs.
Wilson's wishes service was of
the simplest character, no mu-
sic, only reading of few vers-
es from the Bible and prayer
by Rev. Sylvester Beach of the
church which the Wilson fam
lily attended during their years
in Princeton, N. j.. Benedic-
ton was pronounced by Rev.
J. H. Taylor. at whose church
the president has worshipped
since coming to Washington.
Less than 200 persons were
present. Besides the family
there were few intimate friends,
members of the cabinet, and
their wives, COMMITTEES from
the senate and house, headed
by the vice president and the
speaker; and employees of the
White House. The casket was
borne from the White House
by six members of the city po-
lice force, who for years have
guarded the White House.
There where no honorary pail
bearers. The casket was TAX
to the train; on it was a single
wreath, the last gift of the
president and his daughters.
Among flowers at the White
House were many elaborate de-
signs. Only small part of
the flowers could be sent with
the train,--Courier News.

TESTS OF AIR BRAKES.

important Results Obtained In Quick
Stepping Of Heavy Trains.
Important improvements in the brak-
ing Of heavy trains were described in
q paper read before the American So
ciety of Mechanical Engineers at New
fork recently. These tests were con-
Quoted Jointly by the Pennsylvania
railroad and the Westinghouse Air
Brake company. The results are con-
sidered the most important recent con-
tribution to the subject Of air brakes.
A train of twelve steel cars at sixty
miles per hour stores up 224.O0O,OOO
foot pounds of energy. This is suffi.
cient to raise the entire train l2O feet.
With prevailing brake equipment such
q train would be stopped by an emer-
gency application in q distance If
1000 to 2,2OO feet. according to the
truck rigging and brake shoe design
These tests showed that this distance
has actually been reduced to 1000 feet
or to within the length Of the train.
This was the result Of improv ements
In the truck brake design involving the
clasp brake. having two shoes per
wheel, and the location Of the brake
shoes with reference to the horizontal
center line Of the wheels. In addition
to improved methods of applying the
air brakes quickly and simultaneously
and at a high pressure This concerns
safety.
These tests emphasized. as has never
been done before. the possibilities Of
improvement in efficiency and econ
omy in regular service operation BY
proper attention to design and install
lation In order to permit the realization
Of the flexibility Of improved air brake
apparatus. These improvements cen.
ter in the electric control Of the brakes.
giving quick. simultaneous and respon.
sive action. The electric control has
opened the way for maximum effect
In practice Of Improvements In prac.
tically all the factors involved in air
brake apparatus, all Of which were
covered in the development represent
ed by these tests. The tests consti.
tuted a progressive development OF

nection with the scientific study OF the

FIRST WAR
WITH GERMANY
EnsIIsh and German Troops Have
Fought Side BY Side but Never
Never Before Against Each Other

The Anglo-German conflict
that has just begun is the first
war that has ever been fought
between England and Ger
many, or between England and
any part of Germany.
Great Britain has often been
the ally of Prussia, the backbone
of the present German Empire,
but never her enemy. England
lent Prussia valuable aid during
the seven years war, 1856 1853,
and helped her again during the
war of liberation against Napo-
leon. Prussian and English
troops fought side by side in
the battle of Waterloo and
marched into Paris together
several weeks later. 1t is true
that during this conflict Sax
ony, a German state siding with
Napoleon, was technically con.
sidered at war with England,
but no actual clash between the
forces of these two countries
ever occurred. The last time
Englishmen and Germans
fought as allies was during the
Boxer insurrection in China,
thirteen years ago.
Until we'll after the accession
of Emperor William IL, France
and not Germany. was regard
ed as England's arch enemy.
1t was the Kaiser's aggressive
naval policy that antagonized
John Bull. That wary old
gentleman soon became sus-
picious of the upstart navy
which his Teuton neighbor
was constructing. and from
that moment on the Anglo
German friendship became a
thing of the past.-Courier
News Fargo.

Better farming Notes

Discing the grain stubble
fields as soon as prcticle after
the crop is off will conserve
such moisture as is remaining g
in the soil, will destroy much
foul growth of weeds. and will
help the blowing on and latter
pack the soil in turning of the
plow slice thro being made
more fine by discing now.
Flowing the land when dry and
letting it lay in the plow slice
unharrowed and not packed or
worked down in any way, is
not summer fallow or summer
till. but merely summer plow-
ed, and does not conserve
moisture does not destroy
weeds and is productive Of no
good results.
