NORTHWEST IN NEED
OF THOUSANDS OF MEN

Minneapolis, July 22.-Reports from
81 stations on the 500 line in North
Dakota and northern Minnesota show
total of $500 men wanted to help
harvest and thresh the small grain
crop along that system this fall. A
bulletin has been issued by the rail-
road company for general circulation
and posting, giving the number of men
needed and the wages that will be
paid.
The information, gathered by the
general passenger department, shows
an average of about 100 harvest hands
needed at every station, the biggest
requisition coming from Drake, where
400 are wanted

HAIL, BIG AS 1EAcUPS
FALLS NEAR NEW SALEM

Dickinson, N. D., July 23.-Passen-
gers arriving on No. 7 tonight are
excited over a hail storm this side
of New Salem lasting 20 minutes
which broke every window on the
north side of three coaches, penetrat-
ing double windows and piercing cur
tains, and ripping off screening on
roof ventilators. Ice chunks the size
of teacups crashed through the win
dows while the passengers stood hud-
died together on the opposite side.
The oldest inhabitants never saw such
a storm.
Some Is miles OF country between
New Salem and Glen Ullen were hit.
The train was held mere an hour while
workmen pulled out jagged pieces of
glass.

BEAUTY OF BAD LANDS

Dickinson Press: Do we appreciate
the unusual beauty of this section of
the country and realize that within
Is or 20 miles of Dickinson are
sights many would traverse half con-
tinent to see? To be sure there are
large treeless areas, but, with the set
Ting up of the country and the practi-
cal elimination of the .s:airie fires the
trees along the rivers, creeks and
draws are making a wonderful show
ing. There is no monotony in our
landscape and much of our scenery
matches anything found anywhere in
the country.
A twelve mile drive north brings one
to the edge of the Breaks" or minia-
ture Bad Lands, with their oddly shap-
ed cones, gorgeous coloring and wealth
of wild plum trees and ground cedar
clinging to the sides and tops of the
buttes. In the distance are the his
toric Killdeer mountains, with oak
thickets, cool springs and the famous
Diamond c ranch nesting at the base,
which will well repay visit if one
has day or two to spare.
From Dickinson to South Heart the
old bumpy road is no more and, up and
down, over the scoria surfaced Red
Trail, the car simply flies along, with
the tree-fringed Heart river at the left
and the sharply notched outline of the
Blue Crane hills in the background.
The new road from South Heart to
Daglum winds right through the Lit
tie Bad Lands and, if one hasn't time
to go ia Medora and see the real thing
this is wonderful and beautiful enough.
Where can be matched the view of
the Bad Lands as the morning sun
lights up each glistening point and
brings out in strong light the colors
of the clay, the evergreens and the
flowers? Or what can equal this
same scene, bathed in the soft, rosy
reflection of the glorious North Dakota
sunset? Let us appreciate our home
scenery.

Bring back the pain that in youth
tackled me,
Put me again, mother, over your lap,
Give me rap, mother-give me rap.
No one has licked me in thirty odd
years,
Not a blamed soul has been boxing
my ears,
No one has said Don't you do that

SOME READABLE VERSE
PLANTING A TREE

He who plans tree ...1
Plants a hope;
Rootlets up through fbres blindly
grope; ~
Leaves unfold into horizon free;
So mans life must climb
From the clods of time
Unto heavens sublime
Canst thou prophesy, thou little tree,
What the glory of thy bough shall be?
He who plants tree
Plants joy;
Plants comfort that will never cloy;
Every day fresh reality.
Beautiful and strong,
To whose shelter throng
Creatures blithe with song.
If thou couldst but know, thou happy
tree,
OF the bliss that shall inhabit thee!
He who plants tree,
He plants peace.
Under it's green curtain jargons cease;
Leaf and zephyr murmur soothingly;
Shadows soft with sleep
Down tired eyelids creep,
Balm of slumbe1 deep.
Never hast thou dreamed, thou blessed
Of the benedic,ioa tnou shalt be.
He who plants tree,
He plants youth;
Vigor won for centuries, in sooth:
Life of time, that hints eternity.
@Boughs their strength uprear,
New shoots every year
On old growths appear.
Thou shalt teach the ages, sturdy tree,
Youth of soul is Immortality.
He who plants tree,
He plants love;
Tents of GOODNESS spreading out above
Wayfarers he may not live to see;
Gifts that grow are best:
Hands that bless are blest.
Plant!-Life does the rest!
Heaven and earth help him who plants
tree,
And his work it's own reward shall be
Lucy Larcom.

LET GERMANY RULE.-England
and the rest of the world should rec,
ognize Germany as the great military
nation and give up and let them be
the champion rulers. What is the
use of seeking so-called glory at such
a price? There is no use or sense
in it at all. Surrender or settle some
how. It is no disgrace to have brains
enough to realize and know that the
strength is possessed by the kaiser.
Let him be the king, if he wants to.
Who cares?
What's the use of thousands dying
lust because of some false notion or
idea on the part of the men at the
head of affairs with their idiotic di-
plomacy that spells foolishness? This
is plain English, but there is no rea-
son for delaying the end except as
some say: ooh, the bible says it must
be so'." Is this going to continue just
because of that? We hope not. 1t
is a sick sight and disgrace and
shame. It simply proves what loss
of manhood and brain power is posi-

The future of union labor is so I'M

How tedious it is to listen to rad
