Sale is a Success

Clerks at the Vinje Clothing Co.'S
store have been annually busy since
Monday morning. 1t is all because Of
a sale inaugurated Saturday to make
room for new fall goods and to close
up on several line of mems summer
wear. The sale will close tomorrow
night.
"The sale has been a success and
we expect many new customers be-
fore the sale Closes" said Mr.. Vinje.
Because of the busy season with the
farmers at this time clerks at the
store did not anticipate record rush
for the bargains but they have been
surprised at the rate the goods have
moved. Less than three weeks re-
main till the schools open and many
of the parents are having the children
dressed up now.

Davis Loses His Coat

Somebody hereabouts is wearing a
good serge coat which does not belong
to them or else somebody has such a
coat ard is anxious to find the own
err. L. R. Davis, a farmer near
Alberta, owns the coat and would
like to recover the garment and
give the finder a nice reward. Mr..
Davis lost the coat on the road
near Morris about. three weeks ago
when he was driving a horse which
became frightened at an automobile
and plunged off the road. Mr.. Davis
had not driven far when he missed the
coat and went back to lco,l for i: but
it had vanished. One of three auto
drivers who passed the spot evidently
found the coat and now Mr.. Davis
would like to find the finder. He
wishes the finder to leave the gar
ment at the Tribune office for reward.

He has a clear record of the family
tree since colonial times and has
every reason to feel a commendable
pride in his nativity.
His heirloom is still in a remark
able state of preservation although
some years ago mice entered his trunk
and ate several yawning holes in the
scarf. The material is made from
pure silk popular with American
danes at time when large silk shawls
were a fashionable wardrobe require
ment. The shawl was afterwards
divided into four parts and Mr..
Hodgeman's mother became the owner
of one of them. Harley, being the
oldest boy, inherited the scarf when
he was twelve years of age and all
these years he has treasured it very
highly. So far as is known it is the
only remnant extent of the beautiful
shawl which graced the shoulders Of
the grandmother when she was a
bride over one hundred years ago.

ADVANCING PRICES
HIT PRINTER MAN
Conditions Brought on By War
May Drive Many Publishers
to Close Their Shops

Business managers of fifteen of the
largest dailies in the east met last
week to discuss conditions and prices
affecting print paper. Every one of
the leading papers of the country have
already decided to reduce the number
of pages each week, and other are
following suit. Others have taken one
step further and have advanced the
advertising rates in order to meet
increased cost of production. News
paper men Of the country are facing
condition never before known in
newspaper history.
After a thorough investigation and
canvass of the newspaper situation
the department of journalism of the
Kansas university has issued the
following bulletin:
1.-THE newspapers of the United
States today face a situation unparal-
leled in the history of the press of
this country. The public has felt
the effect of the European war in pur-
chasing commodities and it is about
to feel its effects upon the price Of
newspapers. 1t is now up to the
newspapers to tell their readers and
advertisers why an increase in price
is necessary. In other words the press
faces an educational campaign for
its own salvation.
"When the average man purchases
a staple article today and finds the
price has increased from Is to so per
cent, he already knows or is told that
the war has brought about such con-
dition. The manufacturer of that
article has already perhaps advertised
the fact that he is compelled to in
crease his prices. No industry is
more seriously affected by the war
than the newspapers of this country,
and yet an increase in advertising or
circulation rates is Immediately
froNned upon because the newspapers
have failed in inform the public to
what great extent they are affected
by the war"

Rustic OF WINGS
BRINGS OUT GUNS
Appearance of Wild Ducks
Thrills Hunters who Prepare
for Early Fall Shoot

Wild ducks have already begun fly
ing in the vicinity of the many lakes
in Stevens county and several focks
have been observed in flight over
this city. According to observers
ducks began appearing two weeks ago.
The birds appeared to be young broods
out for their first wing test. Hunters
are scurrying for their guns to polish
them and be ready when the shooting
season opens on September 7.
The Tribune has been requested to
print some of the game laws for the
special guidance of those hunters VINO
are forgetful or who may not be
fully acquainted with the provisions
of the fish and game laws for 1916.
Following are few excerpts from the
Minnesota game laws:
Everyone must have a license to
hunt small game in the county this
year, with the lone exception of farm
ers who desire to hunt on their own
or land leased by them.
Snipe, prairie chicken or pinnated
grouse, white breasted or sharp-tiled
grouse may be hunted from Septem-
Der 7 to November z and the limit is
ten birds per day, with thirty the
limit allowed in possession.
Quail, partridge and ruffled grouse
may be hunted between October 1 and
December l, with same bag limits as
for The above mentioned birds.
Wild ducks, geese and all other
aquatic fowl except wood ducks may
be hunted from September 7 to De-
cember /. The daily limit is fifteen
birds, with IS allowed in possession.
Hunting licenses for small game may
be obtained by the payment of the
81 fee, as usual.

Paralysis Takes Heavy Toll

After six weeks of futile attempts
to stop the ravages of infantile par
alysis, the death rate in New York
City is still high. Since the first
case was discovered up to the first
days Of this week there has been L.
400 fatalities. There were AZ deaths
in one day last week.
So far Morris has escaped without
a single case of this dread disease.
Two cases having strong symptoms of
paralysis were under quarantine OBJ
servation in this city last week but the
patients have recovered and quarantine
restrictions were raised last Friday.
No new cases have developed.

Has Treasured Heirloom

Harley Hodgeman has highly trea-

of a brown silk scarf made from his
grandmother wedding shawl when
she was married in New Hampshire
when Thomas Jefferson served his first

that he is a genuine gopher although
he was born a badger and comes from
a thoroughly American Yankee stock.

RUSTED STRAW IS
VALUABLE AS FEED
North Dakota Expert Declares
it Has Greater Nutrition
than Ordinary Product

Straw of rust damaged wheat makes
better fodder for livestock than the
straw from the unchanged wheat, ac-
cording to Prof. H. L. Bolley of the
North Dakota Agricultural college.
A greater per cent of the nourish-
ment which in ordinary years passes
to the wheat kernels, remains in the
straw, and in the blighted leaves,
while heads also contain shrivelled
grain. There will be considerable
rusted straw hereabouts this year and
what Mr.. Bolley says will be interest
ing to farmers in Stevens county, and
particularly near Morris where the
black rust did much damage a month
ago. Mr.. Bolley has this to say to
the farmers of North Dakota.
trusted wheat straw has been used
everyyyear that there has been a
bad rust epidemic There has not
been any direct information that it
is injurious to cattle. There has
been information available to indicate
that such rusted straw is of more than
ordinary forage value. Stock men
generally have found that the stock
relish this straw in the winter time
and apparently do we'll upon it.
1.-THE extra forage value of the
rusted straw rests in the fact that
the nourishment which in an ordin-
airy ear passed from the straw to the
grain and remains largely in the
straw and blighted leaves. There is
also the shrivelled grain. You are,
therefore, perfectly safe in recon-
mending to the farmers that straw
which has been injured by rust and
root blight to such extent as not to be
fit for threshing should be moved and
stacked for feed, provided it be we'll
eured to prevent mustiness or mould
ing. The greener it is cut the better
the feed value. All those should stack
the straw carefully for the same pur-
poses, as the threshing machine only
improves it's forage value. Stack
carefully to avoid moulding. 1t will
be valuable feed for stock of all
kinds.
LAS to the method of feeding and
handling, each farmer will need to
use his own judgment. Many sug-
gestions come in from different
sources. One farmer expects to buy
a number of sheep and feed it to
them, but most of them expect to
feed it direct to cattle with varied
ration of other sorts of hay. Those
who have clover, alfalfa hay or corn
silage will find it a splendid rough
feed to 60 with that type of forage.
"When stock is fed any kind of
straw, particularly fax straw and
rather dry wheat straw it should
have abundant water and salt sup
ply"
