ABOUT STORING
VEGETABLES

Vegetables must be stored under the
conditions that will keep them in the
best condition for use. Mr.. H. O..
Werner, of the North Dakota experi-
ment station, gives the following poin-
ters:
In the first place they should be
handled carefully. Bruises form a
place for decay germs to enter. The
vegetables store best if a little i'm
matcre. Cabbage, celery and root
crops keep best at low temperature.
Onions keep best just above freezing
in a dry atmosphere. Squashes and
pumpkins need Il dry atmosphere at
about so degrees. Celery when dug
is really transplanted as it has to be
kept growing when in storage. Dig it
with a good deal of soil on the roots
and plant closely in sand or loose
damp soil in a cool cellar or pit. The
root crops keep best when buried in
sand or soil in a cool place. The veg
etables excepting celery will keep bet
ter if well dried in the sun before be-
ing stored.

from Barbary, is not q botanical spe-
cies, but a variety Of the thistle, which
grows spontaneously all along the At
rican coast of the Mediterranean from
Morocco to Palestine. 1t is now cult
waited extensively In France, where
those which come from Brittany and
Algeria are the species most highly es-
teemed. Even Of these there are many
varieties, such as the Camus artichoke
Of Brittany, the bronzed artichoke Of
Roscof, the big green artichoke Of
Laon and the violet artichoke Of Pro-
vence. There are also varieties which
come from Italy, Spain, India and CAN
ada, to say nothing Of the Jerusalem
artichoke, famous for the enormous
size of its leaves. In the south of
France when the crop is abundant the
heads are carefully picked Of all their
leaves and the hearts dried In the sun.

winter use. These hearts when boiled
in water or in a rich beef broth be-

the pot, the water and broth strained
away, the center is filed with force
meat. and they are then either fried or
baked.

tastes like candy, though each dose
will digest and prepare for assimila-
ton into the blood all the food YOU
eat; besides, it makes you go to the
table with a healthy appetite; but
what will please you most, is that YOU
will feel that yoursstomach and intes-

not need to resort to laxatives or liver
pills for bi%llousness or constipation.
This city will have many "Pape's

call them, but you will be enthusiastic
about this splendid stomach
ton, too, if you ever take it for indi-

WILD OATS

How to get rid Of wild oats is a
question that is coming to the North
Dakota Experiment Station in many
letters. The following suggestions r
offered: Take wild oats at their
weakest point which is that they a
only grow seed. If they were not al
lowed to go to seed that is the end of
them. Wild oats growing in grain
ripens before the grain is cut, fall on
the ground and if not buried by plow-
ing or discing they will dig themselves
into the ground by means of their
twisted arms. Grain growing does
not hit the weak point of the wild oats
but rather gives them a boost. Crops
that are cut for hay clean out the wild
oats the quickest and easiest, as they
are cut before the wild oats ripen
seed.
The cultivated crops such as corr Or
potatoes lie good wild oats killers if
little hand pulling will be requised to
get those that the cultivator misses.
Rye is a good crop for cleaning out
wild oats. Wild oats if buried deep
enough will grow the next year if
plowed up. So even if one side of the
furrow slice is cleaned the other side
may be full of wild oats seed. There
are two ways Of cleaning the other
side.
DO not pillow the land for at Leaf two
years and three is better and all the
oats will have rotted. e. If it has
to be plowed then use one of the clean
ing methods given above.

Edmore is certainly waking up to
the many needs of that thrifty little
city, and the latest is that they will
have a new flour mill. While it will
not be the largest mill of it's kind in
the state, it will be up to date in ev-
cry respect, and will have a capacity
of rs barrels of flour a day. liver A.
Lestrud, who for several years has
been conducting a flour and feed bust
ness in Edmore, has begun the erec-
ton of a building for the mill and will
install the most up-to-date machinery
Good for Edmore! This will be one
of the finest little institutions that one
could imagine and will be a great ben
eft to the farming community, and
will be the can of bringing much
trade to that thrifty little town.

Hon. E. S. Gambler, Jr.

Hon E S Gambler, IT,, our dis
tinguished representative In Con
gress, addressed a large number
of voters and friends at the Court
House last Thursday evening.
The first part of his speech was
devoted to "reminiscences, in
which he touched upon many in
cidents connected with his faith
er's and his own life, many years
of which were spent in this county.
In the latter part of his talk he
spoke of the victories achieved by
the Democratic administration and
paid glowing tribute to Presi-
dent Wilson. He explained at
length the canal toll bill and other
measures that were adopted and
for which he voted. 1t is a mat
ter of great pride to the voters of
the district which Mr. Gambler rep
resents, that when an investiga-
ton was made into the lobby
ing" that was going on and list
of the names of the Congress
men who could not be reached by
the lobbyists was made known
his name headed the list. Nj
Gambler said when Re was ap
preached by lobbyist, he very
politely bur emphatically showed
him the door.
That the people believe in, adj
mire and love Mr. Gambler is ev-
idenced by the fact that he has
been their representative for 1t
years, and he is likely to be fol
many years to come.

The hardest housekeeping in
the world Is the housekeeping that
people do for their neighbors.
Half the troubles we have are
caused by worrying about what
people think. What difference
does it make what they think, any
way? No one can live his own
life and two or three other peo-
pies besides. What's the use of
setting up housekeeping on the
roof or on the outside walls for the
benefit of the neighbors? You
would rightly be judgek insane if
you suggested anything of the
kind, and that is practically what
half the people do. They can't
do this because the neighbors
would talk, and they can't do that
because the neighbors wonder if
they could not afford to do some
thing else. They may not say
it in so many words, but they
mean it, and it is simply a great
big vacuum in some of our ma
lures where moral courage ought
to be. Half the sting of poverty
or small means is gone when one
keeps house for himself and not
for his neighbors.
