High Prices Compensate for Short
Crop, Says Federal Reserve Bank.

A defined tendency to hold back
wheat and other grains, coupled with
moderate deliveries at terminals, has
permitted the crop movement, 50 far,
to be handled very largely 5}pns:: the
farmers money, and the demand
upon the banks at the principal cen

have been expected, says a monthly
report issued by the Federal Reserve
bank of Minneapolis. .-,r ~
"A notable characteristic Of the
situation" says the report, "is that
the demand from the agricultural
sections is rather light. Country
banks are in good condition, and
have not been rediscounting on such
scale as the partial failure Of the
CROP would suggest. Et5I~

TAKE CARE OF THE 49,.
CHILDkEN's TEETH.

A. recent investigation made by
the; u S. Public: Health Service in
connection with studies Of rural
school children showed that 1913 per
cent had defective teeth, 21.1 per
cent had two or more missing teeth,
and only 1863 per cent had had dent:
al attention. Over~14 per cent never
used a tooth brush, 58.2 per cent
used one occasionlly and only 27.4
per cent used one daily. Defective
teeth reduce physical efficiency. Dir
ty, supporating, snaggle-toothed
mouths are responsible for many
cases Of heart disease, rheumatism,
and other chronic affections. The
children are not RESPONSIBLE for the
neglected state of their teeth. The
ignorant and careless parent is to
blame for this condition--a condition
which hampers mental and physical
growth and puts permanent handi-
cap on our future citizens. School
teachers can and are doing much in
intoxicating habits Of personal clean
liness on the rural school child but
this will fail Of the highest accom-
plishment unless parents cooperate
heartily and continuously. This is a
duty which we owe our children.
We believe however, that every
school board should employ COM
petent dentist to examine the child
ren's teeth at least once a year and
to make the necessary repairs at
public expense. It is more import
ant to turn the young people out Of
school with good, strong sets Of
teeth in their mouths than with
craniums filled with useless facts.

THE ARGYLE GRAIN
AND STOCK SHOW

Ye editor visited Argyle last Sat-
urday for the purpose of seeing the
grain and stock show and industrial
contest held there under the auspices
Of the Argyle Better Farming az
sociation. We were very much sur
prised, to say the least, to see in an
off year like this such an excellent
collection of farm products as was
there shown. There were excellent
samples of wheat, oats, barley, flax,
clover seed, corn and other grains,
and the SAMPLES. of potatoes of all
the leading varieties were as good as
we have ever seen. The Argyle,
Foldahl and Bloomer Progressive
Farmers Gibbs had snlendid exhibits
in artisticallv arranged booths, the
Fnldahl club carrying off the first
prize, the Argyle club the second
prize and Bloomnr third nrize. The
colt exhibit contained large num-
her of fine animals and proved that
Marshall county does raise some
'niohty fine horses In poultry there
were nianv entries in the leading
breeds and some very fine birds
shown. The culinary department
was exceptionally complete and our
eyes longed very much to sample the
many good things the women folks
had brought there.
The money prizes and 36 costly
silver cups to be connected for, were
donated bv the business men of
Argyle. Each exhibitor must win
the CUP three times before it be-
comes his own.
The addresses delivered by Prof.
Wilson and other mon from the
State Agricultural Collepe were in
structive. The show. which is to be
>, an annual affair hereafter can not
fail to be an incentive: to better
farming and will TINS benefit the
entire community. The men at the
head Of it deserve credit for their
enterprise. Push a = good thing

, The animal husbandry class autoed
to Argyle Wednesday Of last week.:
On this trip a visit was made to the
Hans Melgaard farm, east of Argyle
and also to the Peter Bushman farm.
Altho the roads were muddy the trip
was enjoyed. The JUDGING Of live
stock was the object Of the trip and
the purpose for our going out, but
notice was also taken Of how the
Tfara buildings were arranged and

prize Of $1,000 for the same ten
ears. This speaks we'll for Leroy
and we feel like shouting a little bit
along with him. Leroy has always
been very enthusiastic about his

how he: won; this prize? His corn

The School Fair.
School fairs are not very common
in the State and the fair held in the
Horgen school was the first one that
I have attended and perhaps it is
the first Of it's kind in Marshal
county.
Much credit is due Miss Saxto1
Nelson, the teacher, who had Sc
nicely managed things. Pupils ant
parents both had brought of. >thei,
products on the farm and came te
their own school on Friday Of last
week to be mutually helpful. This
may sound like a very common thing
to the readers of these lines but tc
me it looks like a big thing.
Miss Olson of the Warren High
School was called upon for a talk
