BIG CELEBRATION
At HANkINsoN

Hankinson will celebrate the
Fourth of July-you bet!
Mark the date on your calendar
and plan right now to come-for
no one within radius of fifty
miles can afford to miss it.
The eagle will scream.
The band will play.
There will be fireworks and a
Dall game-probably two of 'em
Maybe there'll be a balloon as
cension with parachute leap.
Races Of all kinds, athletic con-
tests. military drill, merry-go-
round, speeches, big bowery
dance-oh, yes! and big par
ade.
Nothing like it has happened in
this part of the state since the
year of the big wind and the win
ter of the green snow.
Your neighbors, their wives,
sweethearts and children are all
coming-you do not want to be
left at home alone-'course not.
So come.

PARIS GREEN HIoH; USE LEAD
AR8ENATE

Paris green is now at prohi-
bitive price for spraying plants.
Arsenate of lead can be used as
a substitute, however.
Arsenate Of lead is sold either
dry or in the from of a paste. Dry,
it costs about 20 cents a pound;
and in the paste form it costs
from 9 to 12 cents.
In the dry form it may be used
either mixed with dust or air
Stacked lime. the same proper
tions being used as for Paris
green. 1t may be mixed with
water at the rate of one and a
half pounds of arsenic Of lead to
fifty gallons of water.
In the paste form, usually sold
in small pals, it is to be mixed
with water at the rate of three
pounds to fifty gallons of water.
AS we'll as being cheaper by
one-third than Paris green, arse
nate Of lead may give better re-
suits. 1t is less likely to burn the
foliage of the plants and stick to
the leaves better.

to be the accumulated surplus of
wheat in Russia, there would un-
doubtedly be a decline in price.
Another factor in the situation
is the large surplus carried over
from last year. The farmer who is
in position to hold his wheat
will only sell when it reaches a
price in accordance with his
ideas. 1t is the expressed belief
that a great majority of the far
mers at this time have the ability
to carry their grain for quite a
time if they so wish. Should il
appear, however, with the coming
of peace, that the high price OF
wheat is ended for the time being
it is more than likely that large
holdings will be thrown upon the
market with the effect of further
lowering the price.
The decrease in acreage has
been greatest in the large wheat
growing states, and particularly
marked in the central west, or
according to the committee, Kan
sas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana
Michigan, Ohio and Iowa. 1t is
due to unfavorable weather last
fall during the planting time and
TO an unusual amount of winter
killing.

WINTER WHEAT ACREAGE
= SHORT PRICES STAY Up

Naturally North Dakotans are
intensely interested in any phase
of developments which will af-
feet the price of wheat and in this
connection it seems fairly well
assured. according to a special
report from the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States to the
North Dakota Development Lea
que Headquarters at Grand Forks
that the winter wheat production
this year will be ppreciably less
than that of 1915 and 1914. In
fact, according to this prediction
it will be below the ten-year av-
erage of the decade f9O6-i915,
approximately one-third less
than the harvest Of 1915, or rough
ly speaking, around 100000, 900
bushels. The Chamber states that
there was approximately at the
time Of this survey, April 9Th of
this year, 20 per cent less acre
age standing in wheat then at thu
same time last year. The question
of what the price of wheat will be
during the next six months is one
which will have profound effect
on the business of the country.
The Chamber forecast, at least
for the spring and summer, is for
comparatively high prices in
wheat, since at the time of OBJ
servation there did not seem to
be any likelihood of the crop ap-
preaching the yield Of last year.
This estimate is based on a con-
tinuation of European hostilities.

the Dsrdanelles are opened, re-

NEW TROUBLE AHEAD
FOR SCHOOL DISTRICTS

When the 1915 session of the
Legislature passed chapter 1884,
session laws Of 1915, they did not
consider the effect which this law
might have ON the county tuition
fund for the support of the public
schools.
This chapter forbids any officer
or board having the power to levy
taxes from levying an amount
which is greater than five per cent
for 1915 and ten per cent for 1916
in excess of the levy of 1914. The
purpose of the legislature in pass
ing this law was to prevent extra
vagance on the part of local tax
alton officials, in view of the fact
that flat raise in assessed valua-
ton would be necessary to pro-
vide for the appropriations made
by this session of the legislature
for the support Of the state gov
eminent.
Very few of the county boards
have paid any attention to this
provision. The Great Northern
railroad proposes to test out the
law. Through their division at
torneys they have brought action
to recover 1915 paid under pro-
test to the county treasurer of
Grand Forks.
The railroad company alleges
that this amount was in excess OF
the tax of two mills provided for
the support of the public schools
and levied in every county-com-
monty spoken Of as the county
tuition fund.
The Grand Forks county audi
tor levied the usual two mills for
this county. The railroad COM
pany contends that this levy pro-
duced in excess of los per cent of
the amount realized in 1914, and
for the excess in the case Of their
own property they are suing.
The case raises a very interest
ing question as the two statutes
are in direct contradiction. If the
contention of the railroad COM
pany is correct every county will
have to refund each taxpayer the
share of this excess beyond the
iO5 per cent over the amount lev
led in 1914.
States Attorney Burtness and
Tax Commissioner Geo. Wallace
will appear for the county.

Herr Harden follows with a

him as ''actuated by love for his

sure by a standard of a students

great, free nation, led by a man OF
the weight and Importance OF

asks.
IF President Wilson, after a

HARDEN TO Defense
OF WILSON POLICY
President Actuated by a Love For
His People, Writes Noted
German Journalist

After figuratively taking the
public's breath away two weeks
ago by a daring article captioned
IF l Were Wilson," Macmillan
Harden of Berlin, Germany TO-DAY
returns to an exhaustive defense
Of President Wilson, his policy
and the entire American stand
point.
Proud to Own Him
In leader in the Zukunft ell
titled THE Real Wilson," Herr
Harden praises President Wilson
as a IMAM of high moral and high
spiritual character. of whom we
might be proud if he were ours
What the writer characterizes
as lazy ignorance" is represent
ed as chattering from the mantle
Of would-be patriotism, which in
reality has nothing in common
with genuine patriotism when
President Wilson is assailed as
he frequently has been.
Respect for Foreign People
Ninety-nine one-hundredths OF
all the so-called war literature,
Herr Harden continues, should be
sent where it belongs-to the pa

"euNePAeeA" IS sTRANGEsT
 DISEASE.

A strange disease called "bung- pagga," appears to be micro-organ- ismal infection which produces a neu- rotoxic effort as well as a local reac- tion. Prof. Patton, who has investi- gated this strange disease of the Afri- can gold coast, says that it is prob ably due to eating infected raw grain.
 "The definite incubation period ap- pears to be three days" says Prof. Patton, during which there is head ache, a sense of fatigue, intense thirst and constipation. The onset is sud den; rigors may usher in the attack The temperature rises rapidly to 103 or so. There is extreme tenderness in the muscles Within 12 hours pain ful tumors make their appearance in the affected muscles. The abscesses seem always to ccur near their in sertions There may be only one nodule, or a crop. The tumors are deep seated, hard. nonfluctuating and very painful, with their long axes eith- CT in or parallel to the long axes of the muscles affected They do not cor respond to lymphatic glands.
 Each tumor is about the size of a hens egg. They are at first hard and firm, and are easily visible and palp- able; later on, if the patient survives they become slightly soft, but never fiabby. Usually, in mild cases, the ab- scesses point after some weeks and burst if unopened.
 If the patient survives the acute stage he stands a good chance of re covery. The deaths usually occur within the first week, the third and sixth days seeming to be hte most critical. Even during convalescence (for two months or more) the patient exhibits an occasional febrile reac- tion."

Moral Of This Tale
 Is "Watch Your Step''
(Paid Advertisement )

A correspondent at Columbus, Kas., sends this story to the Des Moines, Qa.,) Registerer and Leader:
 Because he stepped through par tition door to deliver a quart of whis- key to a customer, John Smith, who runs a saloon one mile east of Ga lena. was arrested by Sheriff Ralph Martin, charged with selling liquor in Kansas.
 The building in which the saloon is located is situated on the stage line, the east half being in Missouri and the west half in Kansas. The parti- tion marks the state line. Smith, owns a distillery just back of the sa- loon, has been reaping a harvest by making his own whiskey, and while standing in Missouri sells the stuff in Kansas.
 The Cherokee county sheriff slip ped into the Kansas side of the sa- loon late Saturday night, unrecogniz- ed. He waited until he had seen Smith pass through the partition door twice to deliver drinks. The sheriff then called for a quart of corn whis- key, and while searching his pockets for the change managed to edge away from the partition and into Kansas as far as possible.
 Smith delivered the quart to the sheriff, and after accepting the price was surprised to find himself under arrest.

CROOK DISCOVERS
 HE HAS CONSCIENCE

An illustration of point of honor held sacred by a thief is had in the return of a purse containing $70 to an old miner, James Brown, from whom it was stolen twenty-four hours before by a man who had to commit burglarly to replace the coin, says the Butte Times. James Brown now 70 years old, was at one time a con fidential employe of the late copper king. Marcus Daly. When Daily died Brown left for South America and while there made a fortune of $75,- 900.
 He lost almost the entire sum in un- wise speculation and had only S70 when he returned to Butte from New York a few days ago. He applied for work in several places but was re- fused on account of his age. Detective Frank White promised to help him obtain a job. Brown had a room on Front Street and left it for about 80 minutes to take a bath. When he re- turned he found that he had been robbed of all that he had He report ed the loss to the detective and on account of his plight the facts were published.
 Twenty-four hours later MT Brown found that his room had again been entered, but instead of loss he found that the missing purse with the money intact had been mysteriously return ed.

CHARGE LUSITANIA
INVITED DISASTER

New York, June 16. - Entirely new
allegations of negligence against the
Cunard Steamship company in CON
nection with the sinking of the Lusi-
tania by a German submarine May z,
1915, were contained In complaints
filed here in two damage suits institut-
ed in behalf OF the heirs of victims of
the tragedy.
The cargo carried by the Lusitania,
together with the belligerent appear
ance given the vessel by a covering
of gray paint, invited the submarine
attack, according to allegations in the
complaints.
According to the complaints, parts
of submarines, guns, ammunition con-
sisting OF cartridges, guncotton. nitro
glycerin and dynamite. were part of
the Lusltania's S cargo and were being
transported for use in hostile opera
tions against the German empire"
Troops and soldiers on their way to
join the armies of Great Britain also
were aboard the Lusitania at the time
of the attack. the complaints allege
