TO GEORGE AND GEoRGIANA.

As mentioned last week, there is con-
siderable sentiment brewing about call.
ing in outside people to participate in
the Datural beauties and advantages of
Pembina. To some this sentiment is
forming the concrete in the shape of q
possible Chautauqua. to others the base
ball view is predominant. the "Arts and
Crafts" exhibition of the present week
makes repetition probability. Then
there is always the question of the de-
slrability of outside attractions like those
of street carnivals and county fairs and
athletic sports accompanimentso or speak
ers and musical organizations.
All these have advantages and disad-
vantages, but it takes all kinds of things
to amuse and instruct the people.
Hence all such things may be taken into
consideration. Certainly variety would
be more attractive than any one particu.
lar line.
An underlying sentiment is that any
such entertainment should not be in.
tended or run as money making propo.
sltion for the city or its people. just to
be run III the interest of good-fellowship
with our friends and neighbors.
OF course this is entirely too early to
make definite programs or arrangements
bue it is not too early to get the "thinks"
gong. Let every citizen without regard
to sex or previous condition think it
over, talk it over, until something tang.
lbe comes from the combined efforts
that will do Pembina and its people
proud.
Now don't say "Oh yes, that would be
fine, let George do it,"

THE PROGRESS OF THE War.

The French and English have been
eantent during the week in holding the
ground gained on the Somme river
against desultory German assaults and
consolidating themselves with declar-
ed purpose of pushing back tbs German
lines still farther.
The fighting at Verdun is now about
the same as on other parts Of the lines.
The Allies claim that the Germans we're
compelled to use part of the Verdun
army to reinforce the troops in defend
ing the dnive of the Faench and British
on the Sonme.
The Russian drive still continues to
make the progress in spite of desperate
resistance by the Germans and Aust.
sians? Fighting is going on along q
front of two or three hundred miles.
The Russians are now not far from
Kowel and Lenberg, both important
points which they are aiming TO take.
The American militia on the Mexican
border have been fighting hard all this
week. Three bandits, numerous taran-
tulas, many scorpions and several mil.
lions of mosquitoes we're among the
losses of the enemy. General Sheridan
once remarked that it he owned hell and
Texas that he would sell Texas. Fifty
thousand ''tin- soldiers" add very con.
siderable to the paying population of the
border towns of that state.
The submarine merchant "Deutch-
land" vent to sea on Wednesday even
ing bound for Germany. Two tugs that
accompanied her report that when she
disappeared off the capes at Hampton
Roads near the three mlle-limit no Brit.
ish ships were in sight.
Sir Roger Easement was hanged for
treason at London on Wednesday. He
was the leader of the late Irish rebellion.
In, this case there was not the least
question as to the legal justice of the
sentence. The only possible extenuation
would have been mental alteration.
When a man of the known strong men,
tafity possessed by Easement attempts
such hopeless task as the late rebellion,
that is prima> facie insanity. The case
of John Browns attack on the Harpers
Ferry just before the civil, war in this
country is an historical parallel.

Others read just as they drink water
or breathe air, with but little thought
about whese the supply oemes from or
how necessary that the suapay is kept

the supply stopped.

financial proposition the lecal paper is

local paper IN q stnietly financial sense.
The average citizen subscriber will on
the average during the year find news of

we who are in the business know Of 90
many instances Of money returned to
readers that We can make the statement
and prove it. The reason that the aver.
age subscriber don't see this is because
he acts upon the news he reads without
more thought than when he taIses .

to the we'll.
Hence we may add that he who does
not read the local paper. just as busi-
ness matter, is likely to lose money. No
matter how poor the local paper. some.
time and often many times during the
year it will return the full price of SUBJ

The business man, the housekeeper,
the student, everybody, should take the
time methodically, to read the local pa.
per as business matter that will pay
big dividends.
We could give scores of cases that
would prove this statement, but little
thought will make it prima facie. We
call attention to it just because few peo.
pie think of the local paper other than
as q mere entertainer.

CROPS AND WEATHER..

The hot spell of the whole month OF
July seems to have broken with the end
of the month. The later days are typi.
cal North Dakota days of which we
have had so few since spring opened,
May and June were so cool and July so
hot. Showers that came this week were
welcome and did good, particularly to
late barley: though much of this crop is
still very poor and is heading out close
to the ground.
The wheat crop has undoubtedly been
damaged by the hot waves of July.
A general complaint of loss Of good color
and too rapid ripening is made by far.

MUST NOT CUT 0s,Sr-
ATTACKEO NaEAr EARLY.

! have had nAmbsr OF lettsre from
farmers asking wethef rusty wheat
should b cut easily in order to keep the
grain from shriveling. For three years.
particularly in D04, I carried out q
number Of cutting experiments 10 sscer-
tAin whether there was any time prev.
ious 70 maturity ct which it was prefer.
able to cut rusty wheat. These trials
even Oh rusty wheat, seemed to indicate
that Vt is preferable TO allow the straw
to rapen normally, for rust does not
attack oil Of tho plants equally and
those that are not hsavily attacked will
ripen ssabs plsmp SEED. II the grain is
cut while there is milk in it, all of it
will be shri~elled. Therefore it my
opinion that the wheat should be d.
lowed to stand until by study Of the
straw and grain each farmer is convin
ced that his particular field is ready to
cut. Usually the straw should be yellow
above the second joint from the ground.
When the kernel ,s pinched it should
emit no moisture or milk.
Observations made this year and
past years, convince me that the Bar.
berry bush. commonly planted as a
hedge, should be declared public nuis-
ance and be destroyed wherever possible.
This is great destroyer Of wheat as it
starts the rust early in May. The sex
ual stage. male and female form of the
wheat rust is carried by the Barberry
bush, and seems to serve as a constant
reinvigorator Of the stem or ".black rust" {"

Here is the man who Christ
said was Elias. and also those
who come to John and called
him 81 prophet. For they thought
that Elias and that prophet was
two different persons. Therefore
they said to John art thou that
prophet? And the reason for
their belief was because God had
spoken of Elias in this manner,

Here God said of Elias, Il
ordained thee to be prophet

thy mouth,
See, I have this day set thee
over the nations and over the

For Moses truly said unto the
fathers. A. prophet shall the

things whatsoever he shall say

And it shall coue to pass, that

Yea. and all the prophets from

have likewise foretold of these
days. (Acts 3-19 to 24.)
We learn by this scripture
that our statement above con-

spoken of by all the Holy Proph
cts are fulfilled and restored.
For Christ has sit down at the
right hand of the Father until

evidence of this fact we shall
quote you the following,

Mexico in 1914

Editor OF "What Do You Knotv"-Will
you please give some account of our diff
culties with Mexico in 1914? Il. b.
on April United States navy men from
the Dolphin We're arrested by Mexican
officer at Tampico and marched into the
city under an armed guard. Rear Admiral
Mayo demanded formal disaYowal and apol-
ogy, with a salute 10 the American flag
and the Administration supported his de-
mand. Huerta refused to salute the Ameri.
can flag. On receipt of his defiance Presl.
dent Wilson ordered the whole of the active
North Atlantic fleet to Tampico Huerta
then offered to salute the American flag if
the Mexican flag be saluted "reciprocally
and simultaneously" But the United States
demanded unconditional compliance with its
terms and on April 10 additional naval
vessels were ordered to TampiCo. on April
20 Congress passed resolution declaring
tho President justified in the use of the
armed forces of the United States" against
Huerta. But just at this time the occupa.
tion of Vera Cruz by American bluejackets
was forced by the arrival in Mexican wa.
ters of the German ship Ypiranga with a
cargo of arms from Hamburg. To prevent
the landing of the arms and to avoid com.
plications with Germany the United States
seized the custom house at Vera Cruz on
the morning of April 81 The Mexican com
mandant demanded the surrender of The
port; the American officer, Admiral Fletcher
refused, and an engagement took place

children crossed the street midway and
broke the spirit OF further regulation
before Councils. There is no way to stop
children from doing this except by
long period OF individual training. These
facts are not urged against the proposed
traffic laws. but should be considered as
pointing out the need Of regulation
beyond the law. That regulation must be
an instructive check on the accelerator of
every car, and 1t must rest with the indi'
vidual driver. II the fear of the death he
causes be not in his heart then the fear
of the law must take its place. Beyond
that there must be a decided quieting
down of the speed mania. Not one motor.
car out of a hundred need be driven ut
the highest possible speed. There is no
occasion for quite so much rushing, and IL
there were less rushing there might be
some time to think of what murder on
the highroad means.
