CAN YOU BEAT IT?

Once there was a boy who
went to a circus and watching
his chance, managed to crawl IN
der the tent. After the show
was over he went about saying it
was no good. Every time we
hear any one say their home pa

LAZY FARMERS. DON'T REAL
THIS.

The United States Department
of Agriculture, the state board
and the experts all over the coun
try are urging the farmers Of
America to cultivate every avail
able acre during the coming year
The war in Europe assures the
sale of almost everything that
can be raised. Every article thai
is exported to~feed the soldiers
and the citizens and the stock OF
Europe means just that much less
for home consumption, therefore,
even with big crops Of everything,
the prices will be high. If it is
not a good crop year the farmer
will at least raise enough for
home use and will not have to pay
the high prices that will prevail
Utilize every available acre for
grain, grasses and vegetables. In
many sec tons farmers are urged
TO try a DOUBLE ACREAGE of pOta-
toes. 1t should not be necessary,
under proper conditions, to i'm
port potatoes into any agricul-
tural county. Put the hens and
turkeys to work and give them
square deal. Raise pigs, cattle
and horses in as large numbers as
the accommodations of the farm
will justify and any losses that
any farmer. planter or rancher
may have sustained last year will
De more than made good. The
war in Europe may last for
months Or years, but while it con-
;inues there will be an active de-
nand for everything we produce.
should the war end this week the
lations engaged will need all our
surplus products for a year at
east. Take our advice, for once,
nd do not permit good, tillable
and to lie idle in 1915.-Vindi-
'ator. /

In 1914, 1873 per cent. of the
failures were attributed to the
shortcomings of those who failed,
while PIP per cent. were classed
as due to reasons beyond their
control. In 1913, sos per cent.
were due to the fault Of the ones
failing, and 1915 per cent. were
due to outside causes. In 1912
the proportions were SO.3 and
1877 per cent, respectively. In
1911 the proportions of 1914 We're
quite closely approached, the per-
centages being 1919 and oil, re-
spectively. In 1908 the proper
tons were IT'S and 22.5 per cent,
respectively. Here the question
may arise as to whether the cut
ing down Of the percentage due
to outside causes in 1914, as COM
pared with 1908, another year of
stress (21.2 per cent. in 1914,
against 22.5 in 19O8,) was due to
better credit reporting or more
careful credit granting, or both.
In liabilities, in 1914, 62.3 per
cent. were charged to causes
within the individuals control,
37.7 per cent. to outside infuen-
ces. In 1913 the proportions were
1877 and 1858, and 80 and 20. re-
spectively, in 1912. Chiefly in
st1umental in causing the shink-
age in 1914, as compared with

work, however, and despite tn
small increases witnessed in the
past five years in tn. mortality

less, that the number failing in
1914 was little more than half
the number added to the business
community during that year, the
death rate is still below l per
cent. in any period of Bradstreet's
records. These statistics certain
ly give little support to the ancient
tradition that the larger number
of those entering business are
doomed to ultimate failure.
What q Business Failure
Really Is.
Bradstreet's definition of a bus
mess failure is that it must in /
volve some loss to creditors of in
firms or corporations
engaged in ordinary commercial
operations. Under this classical
ion, failures Of professional men,
'uch as physicians, lawyers and
lctors, as well as stockholders and
'eal estate dealers, also old bank
'nptcies passing through the
United States courts, have no
,lace. Most or all of these may
'e, in fact generally are, disso-
lated from the recognized COM
nercial life of the country and
re not included in Bradstreet's
allure data. It is hardly neces-,
airy to add that failures of buck
t-shops are not and never have
cen included in Bradstreet's sta
lstics. Failures merely to src-
eed, without loss to creditors,
re not embraced in our data.
IN the other hand. it shorld be
learly borne in mind that these
tatistics do cover and include all
nspensions of banks and other
trictlv financial institutions, even 4
these suspensions prove only
mporary. For these and other
easons, comparisons of the COM
lercial failure reports made Up ,

INEXPENSIVE GOWNS ORDERED

Twenty-one seniors of the Bemidji
high school will receive diplomas in
acknowledgment of the completion of
the course of studies of that institu-
ton, son commencement day, June
third. The class has adopted the
motto Coming Up" and will float
the blue and gold as the class colors.
The red rose is the class flower.
On May thirtieth Baccalaureate
sermon will be preached in the Bap-
fist church and on June second the
class play will be presented. The
commencement exercises will attract
a large audience as the program will
be of exceptional merit. Music by
the high school glee clubs will be a
feature of the entertainment, togeth-
er with speeches by prominent men.
The girls of the class will not be
clothed in beautiful and expensive
garments as has been the custom in
former years, but according to reso-
luton adopted by the class each girl
member will graduate in dress that
does not exceed five dollars in value.
This is the first time in the history
of the Bemidji schools that plan of
this nature has been attempted.

graduation and whose names will ap-

MAY ASK EXPLANATION
(UnitOd ProSS)

Washington, May 22.-Well found
ed reports say that Switzerland and
Holland plan on sending similar mes
sages to Germany against the use OF
submarines for attacking passenger
steamers on the high seas. This
makes a solid alignment of the neut-
raj nations against the methods used
by Germany. .......-.S. f.. 49,. E
It is fact that the United States
refused to accept British order In
council and denied the British for
eign Office statement but acquiesced
to the plans offered, which permits
the Selling of non-contrabands as
long as they pay for them, which
cleared the German situation. It is
believed that in the answer to the
president, the Kaiser may state that
as firm United States stand, Eng
land has no right to stop non-con-
traband shipments even though they
are being sent to Germany. The
Kaiser only wants food. This action
may solve the situation.

GOOD ROADS DAY june IS.
Automobile Club to Take Active
Interest in Accusing Public
{ Enthusiasm. ,.-
CAR OWNERS TO ASSIST FARMERS

No action has been taken by the
business men of the city to use June
10, Good Roads day, to an advantage,
but many suggestions are being made
daily and it is probable that some
step will be taken soon to arouse pub
lie interest for the occasion. The
roads about the city are not in good
shape, but the efforts of automobile
owners and those who are benefited
by good roads, would soon place them
into excellent motoring condition.
Action may be taken by the Bemidji
Automobile club, but as no meetings
have been held by this organization
for some time, nothing definite has
been planned.
The officers of the local automobile
club are anxious to revive interest
in the club work and are much
pleased to learn that auto owners
wish to cooperate. There are ESQ
auto owners in this city and only ten
have paid their dues for 1915, which
now comprises the club membership.
Several have suggested that the
Bemidji car owners and other bust
ness men take half a day off sew
eral times this spring and go out in
to the country and help the farmers
repair roads. The idea is a good one
and will doubtless be carried out in
the near future.
II any wish to become members OF
the automobile club they can turn
in their dues to Dr.. E. H. Marcun,
treasurer, or E. H. .Denu, secretary
of the club.
The secretary announces also that
he has received membership cards to
the state association, which may be
secured by applying at the Pioneer
office and the payment of the extra
fee of $1.00. For this fee you will
receive in addition to your state men,
bership card the official publication,
Sparks, for one year, and the Ameri-
can Motorist.
