WHAT MAKES THE CITY STRONG?

WHAT MAKES THE CITY STRONG?
What makes city great and strong?
Not architecture's graceful stength,
Nor factories extended length,
But men who see the civic wrong,
And give their lives to make it right,
And turn it's darkness into light.
What makes city full of power?
Not wealth's display nor titled fame
Not fashions loudly boosted claim.
But women, rich in. virtues dover,
Whose homes, though humble, still are
great,
Because of service to the state.
What makes city men can love?
Not things that charm the outward
sense,
Not gross display of opulence,
But right, that wrong cannot remove
And truth, that faces civic fraud,
And smites it in the name of God.
This is city that shall stand,
A light upon a nations hill,
A voice that evil cannot still,
A source of blessing to the land;
Its strength not brick, nor stone, mol
wood
But Justice, Love and Brotherhood,
Charles M. Sheldon.

Is BISMARCK MEN

Moorhead, Mimi, April 23.-The
Northern Express company has fur
nished its agent at this point with q
list of 16 names with the instructions
not to ship or accept liquor shipments
to any one of the 16. The residence
addresses are all given at Bismarck.
The Northern Pacific Railway com
pany has also advised its agent, L
T. Stoddard, that it will soon send g
list of names to whom liquor must
not be sent by freight and directs the
agent to refuse all shipments of liquor
to Bismarck until this list is received.
These two mandates follow as the
result of the order issued by Judge
Pollock of the Third Judicial district
of North Dakota, last Saturday eve
ming, temporarily enjoining the North
ern Pacific from making shipments OF
intoxicating liquors into the state Of
North Dakota.
The order from the Judge Is re
turnable on May when it is pre-
sumed that the railway company will
ask for dissolution. Since the
granting of the Injunction by the
court, the company went right ahead
with shipments until advice from
headquarters indicated otherwise.

COST OF PRODUCING WHEAT.

The cost Of producing an acre OF
wheat runs fairly uniform from year
to year. On the state demonstrations
farms it has varied from 1898 in
1907 to 1898 in 1912, an average
for the entire period being 1898. :,
The cost Of producing wheat con-
tinuously, as has been the practice in
North Dakota in the past, is prob
ably considerably less than this, so
that the production Of wheat has
given a small profit. Some years
when the crop was exceptionally
good and when the prices were quite
high, profits have been large. There
are other seasons where there was an
actual loss per acre.
The cost of producing an acre Of
wheat can be expressed in another
way. How many bushels does it
take to pay the cost Of production?
This depnds on two factors, the &C.
tual or money cost and the selling
price of the grain. On the demon
stration farms in 1905 It took 1877
bushels to pay the actual cost of
production, and the lowest cost of
production was in 1908 when it took
S85 bushels to pay the actual cost
Of production. The average for the
period was II IL bushels. The aver
age yield Of wheat in the state, ac-
cording to the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture's reports for.
this period, Is II bushels. If the
cost was the same as that on the
demonstration farms for this period
there would be but one-quarter Of
bushel profit per year in producing
an acre of wheat; the farmer would,
however, be paid for the labor that
he performed and he would have
interest also on all mis- investments,
and in many cases this has been
about the only profit that farmers
have secured from the growing of
wheat continuously.
If North Dakota is to make the
progress that it is entitled to, some
other crops must be found which will
give larger returns than the wheat
crop. We have such crops which are
very successful in North Dakota, the
principal ones being corn, alfalfa and
live stock. If these are systematical-
ly introduced on the farm, there is.
no doubt but what the net income on
the farm may be very greatly in
creased.-North Dakota Experiment

THE GREAT GAME,

$3.50 a Year, in Advance
oucHTTo GET RESULTS

North Dakota's new campaign
against gun-toters ought to get result:
if the law is enforced. No petty fines
no reprimands, no "ten-days-or-ten
dollars" stuff is to 60 after this. Any
body found toting a gun can be sent
up for two years for the offense, il
circumstances make it appear desir
able to hand out anything SO drastic
There may be more effective ways
than this of stopping gun toting, but
up to date they have not proved their
existence.
Two years in prison is mighty
long time, but gun toting is a dis
reputable business. There is no more
need for going armed in the vast ma
jority of cases than there Is of man s
wearing a peacock feather in his hat
band.
The bare possession of weapon is
an ever-present argument for it's use
Put a slingshot into the hands of a
small boy and there will be mighty
few objects in the neighborhood that
won't at least be sighted at between
the prongs of the crotch. And the
spirit that prompts the small boy is
not limited to the years when he
wears knickerbockers and despises
starched collars. 1t goes with him as
long as he lives.
That spirit is one thing that makes
the gun-toter a menace. The other is
the liability of mankind to lily off
the handle' in fit of temper and do
something reckless and foolish. If
two hotheaded men get into quarrel
they may or may not resort to their
fists. Often a latent sense of dignity
prevents such a clash. But if one of
them has a gun on him he is bound to
think of it at such a time, and per-
haps use it. But even if he only
draws it, without the intent to use it
at all, and the other man also carries
weapon, there are thousand
chances to one that both will start
shooting, and tragedy result where
there was no need for such develop.
ment.
Gun toting is worse than foolish. 1t
ought to be stopped. Maybe North
Dakota has found way to stop it.
At least the enforcement of the new
law ought to get results in that line
