vindication for the President.

Now that practically all Europe
has been plunged into war over
pretext that must be considered
trifiing-indeed absolutely contempt
lille in view of the untold human
misery involved-it is to be hoped
that fair-minded Americans will De-
gin to estimate more at their true
yalue the wisdom and justice OF
that policy of watchful waiting
which has proved so successful in
President Wilson's handling of the
Mexican question. The United
States had far more provocation for
intervention in Mexico than Austria
Hungary had for its truculent atti-
tude toward Servia. Huerta proved
himself peculiarly eXasperating
person, with much more ability and
a greater command of resources
than were at first credited to him,
and there can be no doubt that
war of invasion, and possibly even
of permanent occupation, would
have proved popular with large
part of the American public. After
the landing at Vera Cruz nothing
would have been easier than to find
a pretext for such n wariike policy.
1t is infinitely TO the credit II
President Wilson and his advisers
that Notwithstanding the sneers and
jeers of the empty-headed, the male
VIOLENT and the selfish interests that
desired TO exploit Mexico for the
benefit of their own pockets, he re

Contrasted with the bullying AFRO
gance of Austria Hungary which

THE River and Harbor bill was
reported to the Senate on June 20
ny the Commerce Committee and
was to have been taken up as the
regular order of business, but owing
o certain trust legislation that was
ieemed necessary by the administra-
ton, the bill was temporarily laid
lside until these measures could be
disposed of, it being agreed when the
bill was supplanted by the trust
measures that discussion should be
1eard upon the bill in case there
should be any cessation during the
lebate on other bills. The bill came
mp for debate several times during
The latter part of June and the early
part of July when some adverse
criticism was made on it by several

the bill, If possible. At the recent

Bottineau. N. D., Aug. 5.-Willie
McKeen, aged 10, son of Charles
McKeen, was found lying in side
street with his skull broken and
his chest crushed in. There is con-
siderable mystery connected with
his death, but it is believed he was
the victim of a vicious horse.
McKeen and a young lady drove
to Bottineau from their farm home
to take in a show. After the show
storm came UP and while it was
stoFming, McKeen, started out to
getfhis rig which was tied in front
of the Patrons exchange. That
was the last seen of him alive.
No alarm was felt when he did
not return as the storm proved to
be- heavy and it was believed that
he had put up his horse and gone
to a hotel for shelter for the night.
The girl stayed with friends think
ing that McKeen had decided it
was too stormy to venture out:
The next morning McKeen's body
was found and it was them learned
that the horse was vicious and

OAK. BARLEY
BETTER FARMING ASSOCIATION
TELLS HOW TO CARE FOR
BARLEY.

In producing high grade barley
certain fundamental practices at
harvest time are necessary, If bright
plump grain is to be secured. The
better farming committee Of Grand
Forks county has issued bulletin
upon barley treatment which gives
excellent advice. Its most import
ant points are as follows:
Cut when ripe. Barley cutting
should not begin until the grain
is. fully ripe. II cut too green
the barley is apt to become some
what discolored, shriveled. and the
thick, heavy straw bound SO tightly
the crop be allowed to get dead
ripe, as it is apt to shatter and
the brittle bears are very disa-
greeable to handle.
Bind properly. Care should be
taken by the binder man to see
that the bundles are tied just a
little above the middle and suffi-
GENTLY tight to shock we'll. There
is always waste of grain from
the machine and in shocking, If
the reel and binding parts are not
shifted by the operator to suit the
height of straw.
Shock and cap. In localities
where there is ant to be rain or
even heavy dew at harvest, the
safe practice is to shock and stack
the barley. Good shocks can be
made by setting up two bundles,
heads together and butts apart,
then two additional bundles in the
same manner, but at right angles
to the first two. Then build around
the shock, covering openings and
using in all about twelve bundles.
Hug the heads closely, then break
"a good bundle at the band and
place it on top of the shock with
heads In direction of the prevail
ing winds. Shocks OF this kind
will keep the grain dry and sound,
but that in the cap. sheaf and
outer bundle is apt to be discolored
by the weather and should be kent

barley bright in any humid local.
fty 1t should be stacked as soon as
1t has gone through the sweat in
shock. Either circular stacks or
long ricks can be made. Some
sort Of foundation should be laid
to keep the bottom sheaves off
the ground; improperly built stacks
will be wet by heavy rains and
loss will result. .,
Threshing. Once barley has
thoroughly dried out in the stack,
it can be threshed out any time
rain is not falling. If it has be-
come very dry either in the case
OF shock threshing or stack thresh-
ing, care should be taken not to
set the concaves Of the separator
too close, as hull will crack and

best price. Don't let it become
ruined after you cut it.

Minot. N. D., Aug 5.-John J..

i'm the Minot postoffice several
months ago and in which act he
was caught and shortly after was
taken to his room where $22,987.0 06

were recovered, must serve three
years in the federal reformatory at
Anamoose, Iowa, according to the
sentence given him in the federal
court at Fargo. 5>es,
Grisco is but "a youth and is said
to be the son of highly respected
people in the east, but it appears
that he got into bad company and
went the downward path. Quite a
few of the checks stolen at the time
were negotiable. 1t is believed that
the term in the reformatory will
teach him this lesson, that honesty
is the best policy, and that when
released he will have more respect
for the law. sq5
