Given Big Treat by War

crocio1 10 The News-Times.

Special TO The News INES.
MICHIGAN CITY. Ind, July "a
Thirteen hundred convicts went wild
with enthusiasm here Friday after
noon when they were privileged TO
witness a complete performance of
Hove's Great London shows, given in
the open on the baseball diamond
within the walls Of the Indiana State
prison.
It was the first sight Of a circus
for at least 200 Of the prisoners, &C
cording to the statement of Warden
Edward ]. Fogarty, upon whose in
vitation the circus came TO Michigan
City. and there 200, many of them old
men serving life sentences, got all of
the enjoyment out of the event that
is given to any child at his first circus
performance.
Shout Selves Hoarse.
One gray haired convict, serving
the 3Sth year of a life SEN
tence, was among the most enthus-
iastic Of the crowd of cheering, ex-
cited spectators. He with his mates
/
ed himself hoarse at the thrilling feats
Of the performers.
For two hours the prisoners kept UP
| their demonstration Of appreciation
giving the members of the circus
| troupe the greatest ovation in the
history of circus acting.
Peals of laughter greeted the ef-
/ forts at entertainment presented by
the clowns. who. TO many of the audi
ence, were the most interesting part of
| the circus. Spirits grown heavy
| through many years behind prison
walls were lightened for two hours,
while lao actors and actresses made
special efforts TO please the 800 spec
tators.
Girl Riders Make Hit.
The girl horseback riders of the
| compa ny were given special demon
STATIONS by the convicts, with whom
/ the sight of a woman is rare oc-
currence. Shouts Of appreciation met
every bit of daring riding Amid all
of the excitement. however. nothing
was said at which any Of the ladies
Of the company could poss.bl take
/ exception.
! Expressions Of wonderment were
I exhibited when the animal acts were
I presented. For many it was the first
sight OF wild animals trained TO per-
I form stunts seemingly impossible.
I Trainers who entered the cages of
lions and other wild animals were
given wild demonstrations after they
had put their charges through their
tricks and immerged from the cages
liz safety.
Thrilled by BrOncho Busters.
Even the after concern was pre-
sented giving the prisoners an added
treat. the bronchO busters furnished
a cc- nuous thrill, with their feats of
/ hors emanship and crack shooting
After the completion Of the pro-
gram. the 1900 convicts dropped re-
I luctantly into line and marched TO
their cells declaring that they had
/ been given the treat of their lives. The
/ friendship existing between Warden
Fogarty and his men was cemented
by the humane act. which brought a
ray of gladness into the humdrum
I prison existence
The circus management declared
after the show that the privilege OF
showing before the prisoners brought

tain our schools. We are enjoying
some excellent returns from this
expenditure. There is room for
improvement however, which may
not be pleasant to admit. But if
the school is failing to produce
the results it should produce we
are only increasing and prolong-
ing the trouble if we refuse TO
look the matter squarely in the
face.
There are several things con-
nected with this educational waste
but I wish here to call attention
to but one of them-that Of at
tendance. One of the things that
w II count most vitality in deter
mining the child's educational
gain during the year is his at
tendance at school. AS the child
looks to the end Of the year from
its beginning he hopes to find
himself one grade ahead. He
should be brought to realize that
his promotion will depend on
something more than the marks
he secures in examination-that

shops of North Dakota? Let each
man be also licensed to comply
with the laws and penalized for
failure to do so.
Bread of highest quality made
in sanitary bakeries; ice cream
of the purest and best grades

toes of No. quality clean, uni

ease; butter of the highest quail
ity; eggs strictly fresh and sell

provisions for improving the food
products.
who will give North Dakota a
law that will enable the Food De-
partment TO- aid manufacturers
coming up to definite standard
of quality to produce the articles
under sanitary conditions and
hereby make North Dakota known
for her high grade farm and fac
tory produced products, as she is
now known for the purity of her
food products? Would such a
, condition not be worth striving
for and in few years give our
State an enviable reputation?
The idea is practicable and
would give North Dakota much
excellent publicity, any thing
tending to standardize food pro-
ducts and encourage better sani-
tary conditions is a step in the
fright direction.

each day will place him farther
ahead or not, depending on how
that day is spent.
1 would urge parents to send
their children to school all the
time if possible. If you cannot
send them all the time send them
all you can. They will gain some
thing by even a partial attend
ance. But don OF expect as much
from a fifty per cent attendance
as from one of a hundred per
cent. And let nothing but a real
excuse keep the child from school.

a STRONG INDICTMENT

The October issue of Pearson'S
Magazine contains an article by
P. V. Collins, formerly editor of
the Northwestern Agriculturist,
upon the grain marketing condi-
tions in Minneapolis. 1t is a strong
presentation of the evils past and
present, as they affect the farmers
1t shows up the methods of grain
marketing in the Chamber of
Commerce, where only 1900 of
the transactions are in real grain,
and the rest are fictitious, what
some of us not engaged in them
would probably pronounce to BE-
gambling.
The article also sets forth the
fact that wheat cannot be produc-
ed for less than Sl7.29 per acre
in This northwest, taking into rec
koning all elements of production
as follows: Labor, IS: seed. Sl.75
loss in fertility (soil ingredients
taken up into the grain) s5.il;
interest on land, 50: depreciation
in equipment and horses, $3.50;
interest on equipment 6Oc.
Along with some opinions of
the writer and characterization
of the Equity suit with which not
all will agree comes the proposed
remedy, viz, 4" build Il $150,OOO
elevator at st. Paul; the state Of
North Dakota to do the job.
The presentation of conditions
and methods in doubtless correct.
! The economic loss to the state is
f, beyond computation and one 9TH
er feature is worthy of attention.
The great machinery companies
have their harvest field in North
Dakota. Millions of dollars worth
of farm machinery is sold annual
ly to cur farmers and the greater
part of the payment is in notes
due ''after harvest" This forces
early sales of the grain when pri-
ces are depressed, and becomes
another powerful factor i'm i'm
poverishing The producers.
Acception the correctness of
practically all of Mr.. Collins
statements, thousands of thought
full people in the state who are
anxious to assist in correcting
the abuses complained of and to
help put our people upon a better
The Wahpeton times. [volume] (Wahpeton, Richland County, Dakota [N.D.]) 1879-1919, 1915-10-21

economic basis are forced to ques
ton his remedy.
An elevator costing $l5O,OOO
could contain but an infinitesmal
part of the grain crop of North
Dakota. What would hinder those
whose grain fills it from allowing
that grain to remain there for
months? Then what use would it
be to the rest of the state? When
our marketing is under control
of the state of Minnesota and the
fnen who have built upthis system
is it not foolish for us to build a
state elevator there to be control
led by them?
ITS long long way to Upper
ary''-a long, long way to the
creation of our own terminal
markets; to the development of
mills which will grind up our
grain, of packinghouses to man.
ufacture the meat product pro-
duced by feeding our refuse, but
it seems to many earnest and
honest men that the slow road is
the only speedy one, that North
Dakota's building terminal ele-
vator at st. Paul would only delay
the relief needed and would ar-
c"mplish practically nothing.
Elevators, packinghouses. mills.
livestock and a combined and CO.
operative effort to create our own
system of marketing grain and its
products looks better to many.
All this market was created in
Minneapolis. why not in North
Dakota? And Why not begin and
avoid the evils which have devel-
oped i'm that city?-Fargo Gour-
Ter News.

A VERY POPULAR MOVEMENT

Probably no movement in North
Dakota in recent years has met
with such universal favor as
North Dakota Appreciation Week,
which was presented by the North
Dakota Press Association and
which was made an official act of
the state through special pro-
clamation by Governor Hanna,
naming the week of November
1 4th to goth as the official week.
Briefly outlined, the plan is to
have every newspaper issue a
special Booster edition during
that week, filled with special mat
ter prepared by the Commissioner
of Agriculture at Bismarck, to-
gether with local write-ups of the
local communities. Large num-
bers Of extra copies of these pa
pers to be mailed to other parts
of the country. In addition to this
Commercial Clubs and commun-
ity organizations are to hold din
ners with special programs of
North Dakota adore. ses, all chur-
cneS are requested to hold special
North Dakota services on Sunday
November lith, and Friday No
vember 10Th has been set aside
by the schools of the state for
special North Dakota exercises
when prize essays will be read,
special music rendered and other
appropriate features given.
North Dakota has enjoyed great
prosperity this year. This state
stands at the top of the whole
country in the Department of Ag-
riculture reports from Washing
ton in point of value of all crops.
There is every opportunity for eN-
pressing our appreciation of the
virtues, opportunities and re-
sources Of our state and we are
we'll justified in making known
her greatness to others. We will
all unite in making North Dakota
Appreciation Week week long
to be remembered because of its
permanent value to us.

DO YOU WANT
TO DIE OF CANCER

How cancer begins and how it
may be destroyed in its begin
nlngs is the subject of a bulletin
coming from the department Of
preventive medicine of the Uni
versity Of Missouri. In our opin-
ion, every reader Of this newSpa-
per should give attention to this
highly helpful bulletin.
Abnormal tissue, caused by ir-
ritation, is described as the seat
of most cancers. Scahs, obstinate
cracks on the lip. blisters on the
tongue caused by smoking, and
non-healing ulcers produced by a
broken tooth become sources Of
danger if they persist. Even a
mole or wart should arouse sus-
picion, if in later life, it changes
color and increases in size.
Such tissue is called "precan-
erous lesion:' the Missouri au-
thority urges that it be kept un-
der medical observation.
Probably 80 per cent of cases
of breast cancer would be durable
if women would seek an early di-
agnosls. Every woman, not nur-
sing mother, should go to a sur
Gcon within "a hours after detect
ing a hardened breast gland. Alb
domlnal cancers usually give ear
ly warnings, immediate obedience
to which would save many lives.
10 note first symptoms and to
resort to surgical treatment is,
according to the bulletin, the only
known preventive for cancer.
Diseases of tins kind are not
merely personal affairs.
10 save ourself from cancer,
if threatened, is to help stamp it
out of existence. 1t is a service to
ones country and community as
we'll as a duty to ones friends
and family.

THE SCOUT Of INDUSTRY

ii the iinancler is the captain
of industry, the chemist is the
scout.
And without its scout the army
of industry would be blind.
Little do we realize, until we
pause and think, what we human
beings owe to the unheralded,
fameless chemist.
For the various corn products
which have made agriculture dou
bly, profitable in the corn belt,

For the level asphalt pavements
over which we chug-chug or rat
tie or walk to work, thank the

more, thank the chemist.

STATE TRADE MARK

Commissioner E. F. Ladd in the
September number of the food de-
partment's Special Bulletin makes
the following timely suggestion.
why not have trade mark

to recognize and protect high
grade products produced in North
Dakota for those farmers or man.

Take 1t to the Farmers Congress at
Fort Collins Beginning Monday
of Next Week

Is there a problem on your
farm which has been worrying
you, and about which you would
like to have direct, personal in
formation? Of course there is.
There are such problems on every
farm. Take your problem with
you and attend the sessions of the
Colorado Farmers Congress and
Extension Short Course, which
will be held at the Colorado Agri-
cultural College in Fort Collins
during the week of January 3-S
If none of the lectures on the pro-
gram have a direct bearing upon
the particular difficulty which
you are facing, you will meet
there government men aud tech
nical experts from the agricultur-
al college, as we'll as many far
mers from other sections of the
state, and among these you are
certain to find some valuable in
formation which will aid you in
Strengthening out that one little
thing which is bothering you.
Sessions of the congress will
continue thru Monday, Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday and the
program this year is one of the
strongest that has ever been pre-
sented for the aid and enlighten-
ment of the agriculturists of the
state. Make your plans now to
take a week away from the farm
and attend the congress. You
will not only never regret it but
you will always be glad you came.
