today, according to a report to the po-
lice, by cutting his throat with a

the razor beside it. At the urgent
solicitation of his son, Mr.. Weeghman
had retired from business seven years
ago. He had complained consider

cause he had nothing to do.
Il know of no other reason that
would have caused him to end his

was called to his fathers home. of

got on his nerves, but his health was
such that he could not have returned
to active business"
It was believed that his depressed

gloomy weather that prevailed in Chi

Land Lottery
Opens In n. D.

Minot, N. D.. Oct. 18.-Regis-
tration began here today for the
one hundred and ten thousand
acres of land on the Fort Berth
old Inbian reservation which
have been thrown open to set
tlement under the lottery system.
The period of registration also
opened at Bismarck and Plaza
andwlll continue until October 80.
Only surface rights to these
lands, which have been classed
as agricultural lands of the first
class, agricultural lands of the
second class, and grazing lands
will be disposed of. the govern
ment retaining all coal rights.
The entrymen must take up the
land in the same manner that the
full homestead act provides.
The territory to be opened for
settlement lies north and east of
the Missouri river in Mountraail
and Mclean counties. Govern.
ment officials say that lands are
of greater value than were Berth
old lands disposed of in the first
opening, because the Fort Berth
old reservation already is we'll
settled. The homesteads will be
of 160 acres each. Drawing will
begin at Minot on November 4.
Applications began arriving
three days ago for early registra-
ton.

that the price of this seed is
slowly declining and a point will
sooner or later be reached which
will be a fairly constant price.
| venture to place this price at

1t would not then be too much
to presume that land which will

single year.
And how much of our land will

the assurance that it will grew

course it stands to reason that
the better soils will give n e
greater results in alfalfa as in
any other crop. A little more
care is required in first planting
alfalfa, but when once estab-

stand more abuse than any other

that within few years alfalfa
will have become the basis of
our agriculture in the West River

CONCESSION BY FRANCE
TO GAIN u. S. PRODUCTS
Will Lift Embargo on Hide Exporta.
tions in Return for Leather
and Flour.

France wants American leather
goods in large quantities for military
purposes and 100000 tons of American
wheat flour for civilian bakers. In re-
turn France will lift the embargo
against expectation of hides.
These proposals have been laid be-
fore American manufacturers by the
Department of Commerce.
This plan would release in this coun-
try vast quantities of raw hides, which
have accumulated in France as re-
suit of the embargo and because of the
extensive slaughter of French cattle
for food.
Asks for Samples.
The leather and hides proposal calls
for samples of American leather goods,
and conveys the assurance that if Of
fers are accepted and delivery affected
the embargo on hides will be lifted to
allow the expectation to this country
of raw hides in amount equivalent to
the leather goods delivered. The pro-
posals have been laid before Ameri-
can leather goods merchants by the

bile ambulances busy it is hoped that
every patient will be moved to the new
building by noon. so that luncheon may
be served them all there.
If Walls Could Talk.
If the walls of the old building could
talk. no doubt they would tell of the suf-
fering and pain alleviated there. and of
the splendid work done in administering
to the sick and wounded and caring for
the thousands of emergency cases of a
great city through many years; but at
the same time the walls would admit
they are old and dingy and have about
seen their day.
Tonight the patients at Emergency
will go to sleep-those that can sleep
in the cid building, as usual. Tomor-
row night they will sleep in great.
