FOR THE
EXPOSITION

Secretary Holbein of the North Da-
kota Commission at the San francisco
exposition has suggested and urges
that Devils Lake and Ramsey county
send an exhibit Of vegetables raised
here to the exposition in order that the
people who attend this exposition may
see just what can be done along this
line in North Dakota. The suggestion
is good one and if some one would
take the matter up there is no ques-
tion but what little later a splendid
display could be arranged. This is
is the kind of advertising that would
do North Dakota good, and help along
the lines of securing more emmigra-
tion. Who will start the ball rolling
for a vegetable exhibit at the expo
sition?

convicted in the federal court here
of violation of the Mann white slave
act, is again in the Cass county Jail
waiting for the return of Judge c. F..
Amidon in order that she may be SEN
fenced to the right place. A mistake
was made in sentencing her, as she
should have been sent to Lansing, no
female prisoners being taken at the
Leavenworth institution.
f. The woman was sentenced to ffteei:
months in Leavenworth and in charge
of U. S. Marshal Doyle and his wife
started the first of last week for the
Kansas institution. High water in
Nebraska and Kansas delayed the trip
but after detouring a considerable
distance the federal prison was reach
ed and Marshal Doyle was Informed
that the woman could not be taken
there.
There was nothing to be done but to
return to North Dakota with the pris'
oner. Fhe party arrived here this
morning and Mae Peterson is again

ARRESTED FOR
FORGING CHECKS

Minot, N. D., July PA young
man, 20 years of age, giving his name
as William Walker, was arrested at
Gordon Bros. store where he was at
tempting to pass forged check on
Harvey Wickman of brady, for $22.-
46. Abe Gordon grew suspicious and
telephoned to Mr., Wickman, learning
that the check was forged. An Off
Ger took the young man into custody.
Young Walker, Or whoever he ac-
tually is, arrived recently from Can
ada. He bought a watch for SO from
Hart Swalstead, giving check on Mr..
Wickman for $32.35. When arrested
he still had the watch and all but So
of the change given by Mr.. Swalstad.
The money was found in the band of
his hat. In each instance he claimed
that he had been working for Mr..
Wickman, but the Brady farmer de-
clares that he never saw the man be-
fore. How he learned the name of
the Brady farmer is not known.
Young Walker was given a hearing
he waived examination and was
bound over to the district court.

TRAIN BASEBALL
PITCHERS WITH
BuLL'S-EYE BOX

For drilling pitchers and teaching
them control, as well as for trying out
new material, the coach of Harvard's
baseball team developed pitching
box which proved useful during the
spring training season. The devise
consists of large canvas and board
box approximately six feet in height
and two feet in depth. In the middle
of the front side is a rectangular hole,
3ft. by 2 it,, while within the box,
against the back wall, is a red flanel
bulrs-eye, / #. in diameter. When
in use, the box is placed at distance
from the pitchers mound which cor
responds to the home plate. To hit
the bulls EYE is in this instance the
thing to be avoided. The pitcher
must throw a curve which breaks
quickly, SO that the ball after entering
the aperture does. not strike the red
flannel. This readily shows the pitch
er, and his coach as we'll, what he car
do. "A picture Of the device appears
in the August Popular Mechanics
Magazine.

HOW GERMANY
THINKS THE
WAR STARTED

In the July American Magazine
Edward Lyell Fox, correspondent in
Germany for that publication, writes a
highly interesting article entitled
"God Punish England" in which he re-
ports the intensity of the feeling in
Germany against England. In con-
nection with this subject he quotes
Major vonHerwarth, German officer,
who tells in part as follows what he
regards as the origin of the trouble:
ENGLAND is jealous of our COM
merce. We do not have weekend
parties. We work. We become too
powerful in trade. We disturb the
British peace of mind, therefore Brit
ain must be rid of this disturbance.
We saw with regret that our rela-
tions with England were becoming
unsatisfactory. There was no rhyme
or reason why we should not have
come to a good solid understanding.
We tried for it hard, but in vain. Eng
land turned to France and Russia, and
it was remarkable coincidence
that ever since the Triple Entente was
complete our neighbors in the east and
the west adopted an attitude against
us that grew more and more hostile.
We knew that the struggle was COM
ing and we were prepared. But, more
than anything, we resent the British
hypocrisy over the neutrality of Bel
gium-this from the nation that made
her empire by gobbling up little coun-
tries all over the world! You see, we
cannot think of such things and re-
main calm. Germany is only one
thousandth's part of the surface of the
globe. (The entire area of the globe,
including all oceans, is about one
thousand times the area Of Germany.
The entire area of all the land on the
globe, including fertile territory, des-
erts, steppes, and the polar regions, is
less than three hundred times the area
of Germany-Editor.)
ttWe have worked hard on this soil
and we live we'll. And by our hard
work we are rivaling England's COM
merce, which means that we must

competitor.
Montana and Wyoming are the two
greatest sheep States, each having

LANCD0N Man
HAS QuACk
GRASS CURE

Langdon, N. D., July 21.-While in
town P. Scully told of means Of rid
ding the farm of quack grass, which
he had tried and found successful on
more than one occasion at his place
east of Langdon. In addition to its
efficiency the treatment has the ad-
vantage that while riddfng the ground
of the quack grass the owner is right
along at the same time cropping this
piece of land, the same as the rest Of
the farm. Mr.. Scully's plan is that at
about threshing time cover the patch
of ground to be treated to a depth of
nearly a foot with straw from the ma
chine. Just before freezing up, or
along late in the fall burn the straw
and plow at depth of two or three
inches, using sharp plow share, so
as to make clean cut at the roots of
the quack grass. Leave the land as it
was turned over by the plow along
thru the winter and until the last week
of May or the first week of June, at
which time plow again, this time to a
depth of from four to six inches, and
sow with barley, seeding with a peck
more barley than is sown on the other
land. If this treatment is repeated
two or three seasons, Mr.. Scully is
able to assure anyone that there will
be no further trouble with quack grass
He claims that the strong lye formed
from the burned straw, together with
the later freezing temperature, will
thoroughly kill and rot the roots Of the
grass in a much more effectual man
ner than if the land had been covered
with tar paper, or given some of the
other treatments one reads Of in the
farm journals.

prison, with all the lights out. The
assilant had used knife which had
been used during the day for killing
hogs, and which he had secreted about
his clothes. He came upon Frank
from behind and with suddenness
that prevented any resistance.
Franks jugular vein was cut, but
the windpipe and spinal cord was un-
touched. He fell to the floor and call
ed for help, the guards rushing in and
turning on the light. He was found
lying in pool Of blood and with blood
squirting from the wound in his neck.
II guess they have got me-" he said,
regaining consciousness. The prison
physician was summoned and aid adj
ministered.
When the lights were switched on, a
convict was seen retreating toward his
room and when caught proved to be
Green.
