the GREAT CONVENTION,

: Once more The Forum Is glad Of the
those citizens who form the backbone
or the state, and in fact the entire
ncrthwest-the farmers. Fargo is a
city OF conventions Hardly a week
passes during the year without some
Eathering Of more than local import
ance But there is no convention that
Ever meets here which surpasses in
welcomed to the city than the Tri-
State Grain Growers convention with
It's kindred organizations.
1t had been hoped to welcome the
TTi-Stats convention in the completed
Fargo auditorium this year, but it was
found to be impossible to get the big
STRUCTURE finished in time and the SEES
sions are being held in the lower floor
uf the building which furnishes ample
seating room but is not as convenient
Rs Will be the hail OF the auditorium
when that is finished Those who are
In attendance, however, can get a.
good idea. OF the splendid hall in which
they viii be able TO hold their next
gathering,
There are two auxiliary features Of
the Tri-State convention which vie
with each other in Importance. These
= the corn show in charge Of Pro-
fessoT Randlett and the pure seed con-
test under charge OF Professor Bolley,
pGre seed commissioner of the state.
Could residents Of North Dakota Of
ten years ago., be transported to Far
80 without knowledge Of the interven-
ing years, they would find both of
these displays bordering on the mir
aculOuE. A decade is not a great
stretch Of time and yet the marvel
otls has been accomplished in the
transformation Of agricultural our
suits within the borders of North d.
kota within that little span. Only a.
visit to these two shows car adequate
~ show what has been done.
The Tri-State convention has grown
TO such magnitude that it has become
upweildly and President Worst, the
father Of this big series of gatherings,
a suggested what would appear to
be a happy solution of the problems
that have been growing greater each
year
He suggests that the forenoons be
devoted entirely to sessions Of the
auxiliary organizations, and the after
Moons entirely to the Tri-State pro-
gramme proper. This would give ev-
cry one an opportunity Of attending
the auxiliary gatherings that arc hold
separately from the main session, in
which each was particularly interest,"
ed, without having to miss some of the
sessions Of the big gathering.
Tomorrow will be one Of the most
important days, 1t will be devoted
largely to the conservation congress
and its programme will he of interest
to everyone, whether specially inter-
ested in agriculture or not.

Daddyis Bedtirne
~ The Good
'NfOTV - Luck Of
@ Toody Ruggles.

" "A NUMBER of rich ladies'" began daddy, Eat the seashore n day las
KA Summer had been throwing pennies from a bridge intot me Waprf r
- a lot Of little poor boys who were diving for them. The water as
quite a good deal over their heads, but the little boys were marvel
Gus divers and swimmers, having always lived by the water. The aides KEEP
on throwing pennies time and time again to see the wonderful lives the hue
boys were able Ito make. They would dive straight down into the water n
stay down evr 81 long and then come up, each n holding a ghtterlng
bright penny.
MES dropped of her finger and into the deep water a most beautiful diamond
ring.
"oh, dear she cried in dsmay, that was the ring I valued most and
though, for it was much too loose for that finger. Whatever shall / DO with
out it? I was So 10 fond of it! ,%
AT once the little boys offered to dive for it, for it had been by the throw
ing o. pennies to them that the lady had lost her much priced ring tV
wanted, of course, to get it back for her Et
$50 again and again they dived, but as nom Of them had seen her drop 1t
they couldn't judge where it had been cropped.
Nov, Toody Rugges was perhaps the best little diver of ALL and yet even
he had been 10 far unsuccessful but at last he thought he saw it shining
down among some weeds. The lady, however, had just about given up hopes
Of YER seeing her ring again when, 10 and behold, up came Toody, his wet
little face wreathed in smiles, carrying the beautiful ring. The lady was over
powered with joy and gave Toody a most wonderful reward
"Oh, how happy Te0dy Ruggles was! At home he had ~ little sister
who was vry fragile and delicate. AS their parents had both died, Toody
was trying his best to look after his sister and himself by selling newspapers
and carrying suit cases from the station. Lately though the doctor "a told
him that his sister must ave plenty Of fruit to bund her up and to make lei
regain her strength, and this poor Toody ws unable to afford.
"But now he had the wonderful rewardfr from the lady, and all the other
boys wered delighted that Toody had been the lucky one.
"Toody at nee began to give his little sister delicious fruits. Soon the
color came back to her cheeks and she grew we'll and strong. So Toodys
worry that he might lose his beloved little sister was vel, and through his
good luck their little home nee moro became very very happy"

Parcel Post Fortuna.

New York Press: With the in
crease in the parcel post weight limit
there has come an opportunity for
somebody to make q fortune. 1t seems
that the number of heavy parcels
transported in the mails is increasing
very fast, but most Of them go one
way-from the city instead of toward
it.
The city wants a lot Of things to
come its way from the country, but
they don't come, for a very simple
reason. The city business house has
every facility at hand for wrapping
parcels securely and yet with the
least unnecessary weight. Light
board boxes, corrugated paper car
tons, strong wrapping paper are al
ways at hand.
The farmer has no such facilities.
The man who will get up a system,
say, Of cheap corrugated paper cover
ings; so that the farmer can rip off
the amount Of material h needs and
Old 1t into a substantial box for ship
ment will have a fortune at his hand.
Somebody who needs the money and
has the idea will incidentally do the
public q big service.

EDITORIAL COMMENT
Unmerqinq Union Pacific.

Omaha Bee: The distribution to
Union Pacific shareholders Of its
holdings Of Baltimore & Ohio stock,
popularity denominated as the cutting
Of a melon, is said to have the in
dorsement Of the attorney general as
a step in the unmerging ordered by
the court. If capitalization, therefore,
is a. element In the roads financial
stability, or In it's basis of rate-mak-
ing, as some still contend, then the
whole transaction in its essence be-
comes "a of stock watering pure and
simple, because the total Of outstand-
ing securities are not to be in n
way reduced. If, on the other hand,
the Union Pacifc's holdings in other
roads were disposed of at a market
value. and the proceeds used to retire
in equal amounts bonds, or even Of
preferred stock, the capitalization
would be IL down by that amount
We are accustomed to refer to rail-
roads as being stocked and bonded at
SO much per mile. Unmerger by the
melon-cutting route is going to leave
this mileage figure just where it is,
u with a delusive yield of smaller
returns sure to be held up to US to
justify a boost In rates or to combat
every public demand necessitating the
expenditure of money.

LOWER HOG PRICES,

Receipts at Local Yards Light
With Availability of New
Corn.

II expect lower hog prices for some

manager OF the local yards. today.
"You hear lot of talk about the Euro
pean war keeping the price up. but the
fact is that livestock prices have
steadily declined since the week the
war began"
Unusually light deliveries of hogs
and fat cattle featured the trade at
the Glen Miller Stock Yards today.
Farmers are no longer pushed by .
shortage of corn. due to the new crop
rapidly becoming available With
prices q dollar lower than they were
a month ago. there is not the incentive
for the farmer to deliver unfinished
stuff to the yards.
Prospects are that the hog market
will remain lower for several months.
This is a normal reaction due to new
corn coming on the market The kill
ing value of the green corn hogs is
not as great as OF those finished on
hard grain. The packers in the large
shipping centers are fighting the price
down. as evidenced by a forty cent
drop at Chicago in one day last week.
