hardships Of
Trench Fight
is Described

in the trenches are vividly pictured
in story written by an English SOL
dier who is on the Belgian frontier.
He enlisted as a private. but later
was raised to an officer. Thus he
has had an opportunity to see the
war from different angles. His story
follows:
1t isn't the ,uanger that affects
one in the trenches, but the hard
ships of cold and damp. Bullets
from snipers the Germans have
lots OF these out night and day
whiZz about your ears continually,
and occasionally shrapnel makes one
tuck ones head down. but one gets
so used to firing that - although 1t
may sound incredible - it soon be-
comes far less noticeable than city
traffic. for instance.
At night sometimes an outburst of
artillery or a wild rattle of musketry
at an imaginary night attack wakens
one stiff, sore. frozen and full of
strong language from fitful dreams,
which mainly concern themselves
/ WIN st'aN p"u"'he' CA" ""Ss ~
at home.
The cold is really horrible. One
never ceases shiverinR. At night the
holes of ones boots freezes and one
! is awakened by icy feet and forced to
get up and stamp till the blood con-
sents to circulate once more. Day
light brings some respite, but the
whole time one is forced to mnffle
to the eyes. and such things as Bala-
clava helmets. timex gloves, COM
fortcrs. cardiSans and woody waist
coats cannot be too numerous. can
scarcely button my coat over my nu-
mcrous raimcnt and still | perish.
A., Washing and shaving are practi-
oaIly impossible. Officers and men
leave the trenches like miners COM
ing up from pit, but somehow that
does not worry us. The Idea of
washing in such cold is too awful
for it is impossible to restore the cir
/ culatior by exercise in narrow
crowded trench and in the dug outs
there is lust room to lie down. There
are now beginning to serve out coal
and coke-iust in time. There
would have been wholesale frost bite
otherwise.

ROPE ON THE FARM

The ability to tie few use-ul knots
and splice a rope is useful to the farm
er as well as the sailor, and at times to
people in all walks of life. The av-
erage person does not wish to spend
the time necessary to learn a large
number Of knots, but he should master
a few Of hose that are most useful, SO
thoroughly that he can make them at
any time from memory. There are sew
eral ways Of tying some of the knots
and making some Of the spices and
bitches, but the beginner should con-
fine himself to the one method by
which he can obtain the best results,
even though it may not be the way
which the expert would find quickest
and easiest. Those who wish to tie the
simple knots and make the spices Of
use on the farm, may secure. free Of
charge a copy Of Bulletin 1856 entitled
Rope and It's Use On the Farm, bv ad-
dressing the Agricultural Experiment
Station, University Farm, sc. Paul.

IN JUSTICE COURT

A young man named Demoise from
Akeley was arrested here Saturday,
charged with having stolen $50 from a
pocketbook which he found on Broad
way that day.
The owner of the pocket book, Peter
Kowalczyk Of Swan River, discovered
his loss when in local store and I'M
mediately set upon the finders trial, as
the young man had been seen to pick
up the wallet. Upon being found De-
noise Immediately returned the pocket
book to the owner, who looked into IL
and found $4.OO therein. He claimed
that the pocket book contained over
$34.OO and that the young man had
stolen some of the money. Demolse
was brought before Justice Gaudet to
answer to the charge. He claimed that
he returned the wallet to the owner
lust as he had found it. He had $40
on his person which he said he receiv-
ed from his home. No proof could be
obtained that he had taken the money
from the wallet and he was discharged.
The case against George w. Mosher
of Motley, who was charged with hav-
inc sold Intoxicating liquors in that
village without license, has been dis
missed by Justice Gaudet. The action
was brought bv c. L. Bennett, Of Min
neapolis, a detective.
A warrant is out for the arrest OF
William Holm of Motley, on similar
charge, the complaint in this case also
having been made by Mr.. Bennett.
Holm has left Motley for unknown

PHYSICIANS AND 1.-THE CODE"
"Time Has Come When Obsolete Ban
of Silence Should Be Iifted.'

New York World: Is publicity the
objectionable sin Of medical practice
The conclusion that one element of the
profession so regards it is forced by
the action of prominent New YORK
physician in requesting the County
Medical Society to censure another and
equally prominent physician for invlt'
ing newspaper reporter to attend q
clinic at which he made a personal
demonstration of the Koch tuberculln'
The action requested is in line with
the resolutions recently adopted by the
society deprecating publicity OF the
kind and pledging itself against cob
jectionable personal advertising.
As against this medieval policy OF
secrecy, the Council Of the American
Medical Association at Chicago has de-
cided to submit to the full convention
of the association at Atlantic City next
summer the question of "'removing the
ethical ban on medical publicity This
decision was reached after long dis
cussion, in which DR.. Petit Of Ottawa,
ILL.,, said: "The time has come when
the old, obsolete ban Of silence should
be lifted and the propaganda should
go on through the agency best fitted to
spread it, the newspaper.
Is there the slightest doubt which
attitude is the enlightened, progress
sive and rational one, and which re.
fleets the prejudice Of the dark ages?9
The practice Of medicine is no sacred
rite. It has most to gain from the
fullest publicity, both as respects the
credit of the profession and the pro-
lection of the public against quackery'
What would be thought Of great law
yer who refused to discuss intricate
questions Of law except before bar as
sociations, on the ground that the pub
lie intelligence was incapable Of un'
derstanding them. Why secrecy about
cancer cures any more than about wire
less telegraphy or constitutional amend
ments and currency legislation?
Medical "ethics' which invest med
ical discovery with sarcosanct proper
ties belong to the tenth, not the TWEEN
tieth century. They represent as ab:
surd a survival as can be conceived OF
class intellectual prejudice, and they
cannot be too soon abolished for the
good name Of the profession.

FARM MACHINERY AND POWER

The great agricultural, industrial,
and commercial expansion Of the last
fifty years has forced every class of
American business men, including the
farmer, to economize labor. Not in all
the history of the world has such pro-
gress been made in the development of
tools and machinery for the saving Of
time and labor and the. cost Of produc-
tion as during the last century in
America. The prevention Of waste of
human labor on the modern farms is not
only q great economic gain; but it has
lghtened the drudgery Of farm labor
and added intellectual stimulus. The
value Of the regular farm hand is row
determined by his skill and directive
ability, his honestly and reliability,
rather than by his brute force.
While on some farms there is too
little machinery and horsepower used
to cultivate the land properly and save
human labor, on others there is too
much. Careful statistical studies Of
farms in Minnesota have shown US
that horses are employed on an aver
age only about three hours a day. At
least two-thirds Of their available en-
-ergy, thel efore, goes to waste, making
the cost of the energy used very high.
The same is true Of expensive tools
which are only used for a short period
during the year. A farmer needs to
figure very carefully before investing
in cornshellers, shredders, threshers,
power plows, ETC., especially il the use
Of this needful machinery can be OBJ
tanned by hire at reasonable rate or
cooperative ownership arranged. The
latter method will doubtless be the
final solution.
The use of wide tires on wagons has
made hauling easier and improved and
packed-rather than cut ruts in the
roads. The farmer who still uses mar
row tires for heavy loads is not only
wasting time and horse energy, but Is
guilty Of cruelty to animals and the
destruction of the public highways.
The relation between weight Of load
and width of tire and the maintenance
Of roads in each section should be
carefully considered and fixed by local
regulations.-A. F. Woods, Dean, De-
partment Of Agriculture, University
Farm, St. Paul.
