FACTS NOT

Rev. f. f. Saunders of Mapleton,
y. d., is contributing a feature to the
Fargo Forum known as "HistOrical
Letter. His latest epistle No.. 26,
however, contains some statements
which are both unhistorical and mis-
leading. The Tribune has enjoyed per-
uring these letters and regrets to find
its credulity so rudely shocked by
such a statement as this relative to
the. November vote on suffrage:

NEW CORN CONTEST.
With Prizes Agoreoatinu 500 70 BE
Awarded,

The boys who have entered the
Three Acre Yield Corn contests have
secured results that have demonstrat.
ed that North Dakota is back in the
corn belt where the Indians had 1t
years ago. The Better Farming Sec
ton Of the North Dakota Experiment
Station Is announcing a new corn con.
test for 1915 which will give the boys
another chance to demonstrate the
corn growing possibilities of North Da.
kota.
The prizes aggregate. $500. The
state has been divided into a north
and south section. 1926 will he given
out as prizes in eachssection to the 20
contestants who stand highest and the
remaining $50 will 60 to the one Sc
curing the highest yield in the state.
The winners in.sthe other contests
have made q good profit on their corn
due to the big yields secured and their
corn has been In demand for seed. In
addition to these profits they have Sc
cured the prizes.
The highest yield secured in these
contests is 1861 bushels of matured
corn on an acre, while the average Of
the 81 prize winning contestants vas
66h bushels Of marured corn.
The purpose Of the contest has been
and is to create a greater interest In
corn growing through the good yields
secured. This has been accomplished
in each contest and it has done more
than that. It has called the attention
Of the whole union to the possibilities
in corn growing in North Dakota. The
corn crop in 1914 only lacked a mil
lion dollars of being al valuable as the
flax crop.
The contest is open to farm boys 10
to is years Of age. The requirements
are that the contest grow an acre Of
corr which will be judged by q mem.

Station and the prizes awarded on the
basis Of the most mature corn per

previous contest. LIST. The big yields
have been secured from well selected
and tested home grown corn. End.

TEMPERANCE VIEWPOINT

TEMPERANCE VIEWPOINT
The Temperance Association Of the
Methodist church has made the Nl
lowing comparison between North
and South Dakota. Whether all its
conclusions are sound or not does not
destroy the significance of the analy'
sis. Few in this day and generation
can deny the value of prohibition.
That North Dakota is better off with.
out the liquor traffic goes without say
ing. The analysis follows:
Constitutional prohibition went in.
to effect in both North Dakota and
South Dakota in 1890. The policy had
been approved by the people in a ten
tative election in 1885, but really ef-
fectlve ]adtion was taken by both
states in the fall of 1889, when both
were admitted into the Union as pro-
hibition states. .
North Dakota chung to it's prohibi.
ton, but South Dakota abandoned it
after a short trial. The contrasting
development Of these two states, one
under: a license and the other under
"a prohibition policy, should settle in
the mind of any reasonable man that
prohibition pays. NJ
! In 1890 South Dakota led. North Da-
kota in practically every, way. The
two states are of about the same size,
North Dakota having an area of co.
795 square miles and South Dakota a
slightly larger area of 1850 square
miles. In 1890 South Dakota had As
population to the square miles and
North Dakota only ~, but in 1910
North Dakota, with its prohibition, had
so people. to the square mile and
South Dakota rs.
N"Not only had the prohibition state
forged slightly ahead in population
despite it's large handicap in 1890,
but it was ahead in all conditions that
make for state and individual pros
perity. According to the census of
1910, North Dakota had a foreign
born population of s5.4 per cent and
South Dakota only r., although we
are told that prohibition keeps out
the immigrant.
I'm North Dakota 80 per cent of the
people own their own homes, but in
South Dakota the percentage was only

Dakota had a fairly high average rate

by 10 to 100,0 900 of population.
The census of 1910 disclosed an
almost startling development in North

Panama, March 15.-The largest
claim against the United States gov
eminent on account OF the depopula-
ton of the zone through which the
canal has been dug, will come before
the Joint land commission for hearing
this month. 1t is for $1,5OO,0OO and
comprises a large estate lying IN the
zone between the canal towns of An
con and Corozal. This estate is now
known as the rSchuber estate, the fam.
ily owning one of the largest planta-
lions in the entire Panama !repn5lic.
Most of the land is extremely fertile
and a good portion of it has always
been under cultivation. Quite a large
tract was taken over for the town OF
Corozal while another tract now forms
part Of the new canal town of Balboa
where the canal headquarters are To-
Gated. <
Geneva, March .15.-The high price
Of $1,000 a ton for copper delivered on
the frontier is offered by the German
government, while the cost at Mar
settles or Genoa is from $3.50 to $500
a ton. The opportunity has tempted
many SPECTATORS. At Chiasso lately
barrels of wine ticketed for Frank
fort were found to be a quarter filled
with copper. At Singer on the Swiss
German frontier near Lake Constance,
the Swiss authorities became sus-
picious Of the extraordinary number
of funerals crossing the frontier and
finally ordered one of the collins to
be opened. 1t was full of copper.
Geneva. March 15.-In proportion to
her position. population and e
Switzerland is suffering financially
perhaps more than any other neutral
nation. She has spent over $~60,O0O,0OO
on her army, she has lost several mil
lions on her experts, and as much in

This bill, as is well known

This bill,as is well known
required a majority of all
votes cast by the male citi-
zens Nov. 8, 1914, in order
to become a law, It will be
remembered that more than
a majority of all votes cast
upon the subject were cast
for woman suffrage so that
the defeat of the question
was chargeable to those men
who failed to vote on the
proposition.

,OII uUS,. Vi d illSdJOIllv against sui
frage of $40. Official, returns show
that only 215 in this county did not
vote on the subject. If those not
voting had all voted for suffrage it
still would have been beaten by 395.
The total vote on suffrage in the
state was S9,419. Those voting for
suffrage numbered 4O,2O9, and those
against 49,34S. This disproves Mr..
Saunders statement. In fact more
votes were cast on the suffrage issue
than on any issue or for any candi-
date on the ballot. The percentage
of men not voting on this issue was
less than the percentage of men not
voting for any candidate or on any
other issues on the ballot.
"EditOrially the Forum says:
In this issue Rev. Mr.. Saunders
discusses the woman suffrage move
ment. He discusses it from the suff-
rage viewpoint"
We do not want to believe that the
suffrage viewpoint is an unfair one.
Probably Rev. Saunders is merely mis-
informed, but surely historical let
tiers should follow more closely the
actual figures. Accuracy certainly
is the prime consideration.
For Rev. Saunders information we
will carry the analysis a little fur
Their to show the absolute i%naccuracy
of his conclusions.
Grand Forks co, for instance, home
of Bronson and Trageton, chief suff-
rage advocates in the senate, cast 1,736
votes for suffrage and 2,259 against,
or a majority OF 523 against the issue.
There We're only 2s2 not voting, so if
they had all voted suffrage would have
been defeated by PAL.
If Rsy Saunders will send for a
copy ofNathe election returns he will
find that the total majority Of those
voting on the issue was $500 against
woman suffrage. Even if everyone
who cast a ballot at the 1914 election
had voted on the issue. suffrage would
still have lost by several thousand.
Just a word as to the "trickery" by
which the Bronson resolution failed.
In view of the November vote every
Legislator was under positive orders
to vote against suffrage. Forty of the
forty-nine senators came from coun-
ties which had just r%epudiated suff-
rage.

The Spanish influence in fashions of
the day is more evident in evening
gowns than in others, although it
may be detected everywhere. A model
recently shown by a famous New
York house developed the idea in the
cleverest way in an evening gown
made of f1esh-colored satin and
canary-colored tulle. The skirt was
full, round and short, cut true to the
original form, and two wide bands Of
gold applique and rose brocade
adorned it. One of them was placed
at the height of the knee and the
other halfway between this and the
girdle, which was of the same band
ing. The bodice was merely baby
waist of the satin.
The canary tulle yelled the skirt
with full oyerskirt, cascaded at each
side, and it covered the bodice, falling
in ripples over the top of the girdle.
a red rose was worn in the hair, Span
tsA fashion.
The gown of light pink satin pic
,tured here is less full and less short
than the model just described, but be-
longs to the same style. The plain,
moderately full skirt is caught up at
each side with silk ornaments and

cure for purifying the alimentary ca
nal, this led to the study of butter
milk, which was for long time not
at all appreciated.
Buttermilk cheese is now favor
tie dish in many of our college towns,
where a cafeteria is profitable. This
cheese is richer and finer grained than
ordinary cottage cheese and once eat
en- is never thereafter refused.
ButtermiIk Cheese.-This is the
method used in Wisconsin experiment
station for making the cheese: Heat
the buttermilk slowly to 100 or 40 de-
grees F., stirring all the time. This
may be done in a double boiler. After
heating, the curd settles to the bot
tom of the boiler and most OF the
whey may be poured off. The remain
der Of the whey is removed by drain
ing through a cheesecloth, doubled
in several layers Season with salt
and pepper or with salt and caraway
seed. When mixed with a little soft
ened butter, about fourth in weight,
and spread on sandwiches, it is called
sandwich cheese.
ButtermiIk Cream.-This is very
similar to the cheese, but is treated
to a lower temperature in heating. A
hundred degrees F. is the required
temperature, stirring constantly until
the curd separates. Drain through
cheese cloth until the curd is like
thick cream; season and serve as
sandwich filling or IS dressing, with
vinegar for salads, used in the place
of the German cream dressing.
Pineapple Lacto.-Beat the yolks
and whites of two eggs separately,
add two or three cupfuls of sugar,
mixed with two quarts of sour skim
milk and IL cupfuls OF pineapple.
When partly frozen add the juice OF
two lemons In place of the pineapple
a half cupful of cherry juice may be
used, or the juice of five oranges, or
a cupful of strawberry juice, or a half
a cupful of raspberry Juice, thus max
ing any fruit lacto.

The bodice is cut on the same simple
plan as in the gown just described,
with girdle shaped in the same way.
Chiffon roses, tied with narrow velvet
ribbon make a pretty finish at the
waist, and folded tulle is set in the
neck and sleeves.
A small fan and rose in the hair,
worn with this lovely gown, add just
the right finishing touches to give the
toilet an enticing flavor of old Spain.
