ENJOYMENT OF Food.

There is a mistaken notion that the
hygiene Of food means giving UP all
the things that taste good" While it
is true that, in many cases, sacrifices
have TO be made, the net result of re-
forming ones diet is not to diminish,
but 70 s-nrease the enjoyment of food.
In general, It is extremely unhygienic
to eat foods which are not relished.
Experiments by Pavlov and others
have shown that the taste and enjoy
ment OF food stimulate the flow Of di-

SHOULD COTTON BE
HIGHER OR LOWER?

WASHINGTON, d. G., March s.
The month cotton ginning report is
sued by the United States bureau of
The census, announced that up to Jan
uary 16, 10,766,202 bales of cotton had
been ginned Of the growth of 1915-lJ
crop. This compares with the gin
nings to same date last year of H.
915,850 bales, the year before, 1892
O36 and 13, OSS, $50 the year before thai.
The average number of bales ginned
10 January 16 for the last ten years
has been 1921, l,d94, representing 95h
per cent of the total crop ginned as
gathered and reported by the census
bureau.
Based on the ten year average gin
nings to January 16, the 1856 gin
nings for the year will be 11,255,6Sl
bales. To this must be added linters
and repacks to get figures Of the COM
mercial crop of 1876. It is safe to
estimate that these conditions will noS
make this years cotton crop, American
grown ,sover 100000 bales.
Last years crop was slightly over
16, 10000 bales and it has been gen
orally estimated that 100000 bales
Of last years crop was carried over as
surplus to this year, which added to
this years crop of 12,000,000 bales
makes 15,O00,O00 bales American
grown cotton available for consump-
ton and distribution to the world.
The last report from the census
bureau, dated February IA, 1916, Civ
ing the consumption and distribution of
American grown cotton for the first
six months of 1915-1e (frop July 1,
1915 to January 81, 1870 shows the
following
Bales.
Decrease in exports to foreign
ports ------------ ----1 ,O35,25
Increase in United States con-
sumptions ------- 77G,461
Decrease in the worlds con-
sumption apd distribution of
American cotton for the six
months Zoo,f9o
If the ratio is maintained through the
balance of the year the decrease at
the end of 1915-i6 year in the worlds
taking of American cotton will be 5l7,-
592 bales less than in 1914-1A with the
1856 crop yield smaller by 100000
bales and ten year average crop be-
fore this of 12,251 ,494 bales, (ginnings
TO January 16) and a surplus at the be-
ginning of this year of 100000 bales
From these figures it is plain that
even with half million bale decrease
in the worlds takings Of American
cotton this year, considering the years
crop yield the surplus to begin 1916
II will be considerably less than II
was at the beginning of 1876.

WEATHER COOLEST
IN THIRTEEN YEARS
Forty Degrees Below Zero Reg.
istered at Government Observ.
atory Yesterday.

For the first time in thirteen years,
North Dakota has experienced real
old.time spell of cold weather. The
extreme cold has interfered greatly
with railroad traffic and many trains
are reported hours behind their sche-
dule. Frequently freight trains freeze
up and block the line, thus setting
back the other trains.
All Business At StandstiII.
In every community the cold has
produced i'll effects upon business
and many of the people have been
unable to get to town on account of
the severity of the weather Busi-
ness men report that trade during
the last few days has fallen greatly,
but that it is due only to the sudden
ness with which the cold wave ar
rived. The people are not suffering
as nearly everywhere ample time had
been given for preparation for the
cold spell.
Cold Wave General.
The cold wave has hit many places
far apart, and other cities and coun.
tries have Jared far worse than North
Dakota. L, The. following report receiv.
ed at, the local weather observatory
gives some interesting facts.
Lowest Was SO.
Bismarck and vicinity were visited
yesterday morning with the lowest
temperature recorded for a period of
thirteen years, when q, minimum of
forty degrees below occurred. Since
the weather bureau was, established
here in 1874 there have been but
seven other occasions on which a
temperature of forty or more degrees
below zero was recorded. These
were as follows: Jan. 4, 1884, 40;
Jan. 1, 1887, Al; Jan. 2, 1887, IA;
Jan. Z, 1887, 40; Jan. 8, 1887. AZ;
Feb. l, 1887, -43; Feb. 1, 1898, Al,
and Jan. ~, 1916, 40. Bismarck, how
ever, can console herself with the
fact that the temperature in many
other places was much lower than
here, as is shown by the following
minimum temperatures recorded at
points in the United States and Cana
da yesterday,-Battlefor1, Sc; Dew
lis Lake, AZ; Edmonton, 40; Havre,
As; Medicine Hat, 50; Prince Albert,
SO; Qu'Appelle, .46; Swift Current
-4S; Williston, 40, and Winnipeg, 40.
The weather bureau, however, fore
casts gradually rising temperature
for the next few days.
Nine o'clock last evening observa-
tions at the government observation
station report the thermometer reg
istered at 55 degrees below zero,
against Tuesday night at IL o'clock,
when the same ]owness of tempera-
ture was reported.

SEVENTEEN KILLED
IN c. P. COLLISION
Between Snow Plow and Work
Train on the Canadian Paci-

Brandon, Manitoba, Jan. 12.-Sev-
enteen men are dead and nine others
are in a local hospital as the result
of rear end collision between a
snow clearing train and a freight
train on the Canadian Pacific railroad
near here today. Fourteen victims,
foreign laborers in the caboose of the
work train, were instantly killed, and
three others died of injuries and ex-
posure to the intense cold.
az Below Zerow.
With the temperature AZ degrees
below zero, about sixty workmen
had crowded into the caboose to get
warm. The locomotive of the freight
train ploughed half way through the
car, hurting the ment in every direc-
ton. Besides those taken to the hos
pital, more than score were slightly
hurt. Steam and flying snow pre-
vented the engineer of the freight
train from seeing the snow train.

the area from Williston, N. d., where
the thermometer registered 80 de-
grees below, to Little Rock, Ark, and
North Platte, Neb., where it was IA
