SECURE. YOUR SEED GRAIN:
Timely Advice Given by N. w. Ex
pertinent Station at sCrookston.

IA short time ago, brief news
article was sent out requesting in
formation about the amount Of 1916
seed grain that would be available
for the spring Of 1917. Supt. SeNig
of the Northwest Experiment Station
informs us that very little seed was
reported. Indications are that there
will be a tremendous seed shortage
in 1917, as the supply of grain har-
vested and threshed this fall, indi-
Gates very low grade for seed pur-
poses.
It is incumbent upon each commun-
ity to, take up the matter of securing
seed for the 1917 crop in order that
good seed will be secured. Reports
from the grain terminals indicate
that grain Of superior quality was
grown in Montana, and is being
shipped through the Red River Valley
at the present tins. Sufficient
quantities Of good seed should be
bought now, and stored for use next
year. Every Farmers Club and every
progressive village and town should
take up this movement In order that
seed grain Of the highest quality be
secured before it is too late. There
should be no trouble in financing a
plan of this kind, as in all likelihood
the price Of grain will not be down
next spring. Suitable storing places
for large quantities can easily be
found, but the best plan would be fol-
each farmer to secure what he needs
and store it himself. Do it now.

Warren 81; Argyle 0

Warren High School opened the
football season in a spectacular man
ner Saturday afternoon by walking
all over their friends from Argyle.
The game began with a kickoff by
Warren. Ball was recovered on the
opponents twenty yard line by Paul
Bartholow of the local team. The
first play sent Capt Mattson around
right end for touchdown.
The remainder Of the game was
easy picking for Warren. Gains Of
from ten to twenty yards were made
at will. At no time were the local
warriors held for downs or. were
forced to put, while the Argyle
squad were successful but once in
making the required ten yards.
r: Team work and accurate passing
characterized the game for the War
rem aggregation. Interference was
quickly formed and effective at all
times. A record of no fumbles in
the first game Of the season !: is !. a
mark OF carefW practlce and clear
Judgment. ,...~ ,
The clean-cut consistent work of
the whole team makes it practically
impossible to mention the work Of any
individual player The spectacular
work of Jarvis. Of Argyle, however,
made him the: center Of interest of
that team. Although playing a los
ing game, his spirit never seemed to
lag. Warren will doubtless hear
from him in the return game.
This week the home boys will
meet the fast aggregation from Ste.
phen. There will be battle royal
for Stephen is one of the strong
teams of the valley and Warren has
! shown that they have fighting bloot
and a well oiled machine. Don't for
get the time, 8 p. m. Saturday The
place is the ball park, Warren.

On Friday evening, Oct. 6, was held
the largest and one Of the most en-
thusiastic meetings in the history of
the Boxville Farmers Club.
The speakers for the evening were
Supt. Selvig, Of the N. w. expert
ment Station at Crookston, Mr.. A. A.
Miller of Crookston, and Prof. Sjo-
strand of the North Star College at
Warren.
Supt. Selvig dealt at large with
some of the most important problems
which confront the farmers of the
Red River Valley at present. One
of these is the disposition to be made
of the flood waters that play havoc
with so much land every year and
another is to check the further
spread of the SOW thistle thruout the
valley. He impressed upon our
minds very forcibly the necessity of
immediate action in the direction ex-
terminating this noxious weed.
Mr.. A. A. Miller's talk was a re-
miniscense of olden times in the Red
River Valley as he is one Of the
pioneers of the country. He compar-
ed the opportunities of the early day
with those Of the present time and
emphasized very strongly the i'm
portance of education in living sue
cessful life nowadays.
Prof. Sjostrand made additional
remarks upon what had already been
said concerning the handling of the
SOW thistle and gave some striking
illustrations of it's adaptability to it's
surroundings.
The next meeting will be held Fri
day evening, Oct. 20, and another
good program is promised for that
date.

Mr. Nichols was born in Ontario,

one son, who died in infancy. The

field, Noble, Erland, Havlock, Harry,
Lille and Abner. Mrs. Nichols
died May 18, 1914, and her death
vas a severe blow to the family and
especially to the stricken husband,
whose heath since has failed rapidly.
Deceased was an Industrious, in
teJligent and very successful farmer
He was honest and upright in all his
dealings and held in the highest re-
spect by everybody in the community
where he lived. AS a friend he was
true as steel and no deceit was ever
found in his heart. In early life he
rad affiliated with the Canadian
Methodist church. $50 SIS
The funeral was held from the
home on Saturday afternoon at. one

friends and neighbors from near and
far who came to pay their last trib-
ute of respect and love to the depart
ed pioneer The funeral service was
conducted by Rev. L. w. Barthalow,
pastor Of the M. E. church of this
city. A long funeral procession fol-
lowed the remains to- the last resting
place in Greenwood cemetery at

John Nichols, the sturdy pioneer
farmer. - :SfsG r..
To the children who are. now
bereft of a fathers as well as a
mothers guiding hand, the scommun-
ity extends most heartfelt sympathy.
The memory of their good parents
will always be strong incentive to
them to lead honored and useful

A good county road is always to
be desired and is source OF com
fort and conveniece to everybody
who has occasion to use it. Good
roads attract population, as we'll as
goods schools and churches. Good
roads improve the value of the pro-
perty, so that it is said farm ly-
ing five miles from market, con-
nected by bad road is of less val
ue than an equally good farm lying
ten miles away from market con-
nected by good road. A larger
load can be drawn by one horse
over a good road than can be drawn
by two horses over a bad road
Good roads encourage the greater
exchange of products and com
modities between one section anc
another.

Dear Editor:
1 have never been 'a.".teacher, but
think that anyone who has the
care and training of children and
young people should try as much
as possible to impress upon their
minds the great Importance of daily
Bible reading as well as the impor-
lance of guidance from the Bible In
daily life.
1 greatly favor the Bible stories
put in simple language that child
can understand, and perhaps occas,
ionally some moral story from
other sources will do much good.
l think the children should b'
taught the habit of thinging OF thu
Bible truths as they get them iron

Bible or Bible stories.
Thanking you In advance
