PROMINENT FRYBURG
YOUNG COUPLE MARRIED

Fryburg Pioneer: The Marriage Of
Miss Rachael Monty to Mike j.
Henry on Thanksgiving day is inter-
csting news tc a host of friends in
this community. Both parties are
favored with an endless chain Of
friends and acquaintanccs hcrcabouts.
Mr.. Henry is a resident of this COM
muntiy of five years or more and is
held in esteem by all his acquaint-
ances who have found him to be a
young man of sterling worth. The
bride, who is the eldest daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Alex Monty, prominent
residents residing only a half mile
from Fryburg on one of the best i'm
proved farms in this county, is a
charming young lady and very fav-
orably known. That Mr.. and Mrs.
and happiness is the wish of the Pho
neer as of the many other friends.
u, The e. Wedding Hs ceremony was per- e.
Bernard's church at Belficld at 8
o'clock in the morning. The bride
was dressed in a becoming suit Of
navy blue b%roadcloth and carried a
beautiful bunch Of red roses, as did
Miss Celia Henry, who attended the
bride. Miss Henry was attired in
blue silk. The groom wore a suit OF
blue serge and was attended by Roy
Monty.
Following the wedding the party
retired to the home of the brides
parents, where a most enjoyable day
and night was spent. During the day
relatives of the contracting parties
were guests. In the evening the
guests consisted of friends. None of
those present will soon forget the en-
joyable event.
The groom has a quarter section Of
land in Rocky Ridge township, but
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry will spend at
least this winter at the Monty home.

an opinion should still find its voice
among us, to the effect that our nor
NAL aught to give the idle-handed
culture and refinement of the last
generation, now is the time to drown
that voice in a great wave Of ex-
pressed public opinion.
We will produce at Dickinson rural
teachers as a chief output; even those
teachers who qualify for work in our
cities will be in charge of pupils most
of whom will either farm or emigrate.
Let us not believe because certain
manufactures are developing here,
that farming is to be scorned-on the
contrary for every increase in manu-
features there will be a three-fold in
crease in farm production. We have
the land and climate; we have the
right people, but early and consistent
training is needed to produce such re-
suits.
Farmers will agree that the pres
ence of a country teacher who looks
down upon the farm life from a lofty
plane of imagined superiority, is a
worse plague than hog choiera-let

Nor should we fatter ourselves that
this work can be done for us by any
existing institution of the state. We
have a strong agricultural college to
be sure, but not even per cent Of
u rural teachers can ever go
through it's shortest course. If they
did every practical piece of work they
did there would be controlled by soil
and climate conditions the opposite of
ours. Freight rates and markets in
the Red River Valley, also are nearly
as much like our as the equator is
like the north pole. The advanced
steps in the theoretical agriculture
will continue to be taught at Fargo,

with US, and will be largely in the
hands of the same young people who
attend our normal school.

When fully supported by expressed

That the 500 and Great Northern

by President Louis Hill Of the Great

lines. Both railroads have extensions
to within a short distance of The Mis-
souri, river, and by combining in the
erection of a bridge, they would eff

 London, Aug. 15.-It is estimated that the all-around expenditure on a baby born this year is probably from S1OO to $125 higher than in 1914.
 Food alone adds about $15 to the years cost of the war-baby. Milk has gone up four cents quart and 1t is said that the average baby con- sumes from 400 to 450 pints a year. Baby foods are up about ten per cent. Feeding bottles cost a third more, and the methylated spirit for heating the nights feed has advanced from ten cents to 25 cents pint.
 Baby garments cost more also. Everything made of wool has risen 33 per cent. in price; all the cotton and wool mixture materials and gar ments are 25 per cent. higher, the wholly cotton ones, owing to the. rise in raw materials and labor, must be paid for at the rate of about fifteen per cent. more.
 Even babys bath costs about one third more; soap is a third dearer, the bath thermometer is up about 25 per cent. toilet powder-chief1y be- cause of the rise in the price of the boric acid it contains-is 100 per cent dearer.
 Nearly all medicines cost much more.
 PerambuIators are about one- fourth dearer What formerly was sold for $15 is now $20 and so on. A cot that could be bought before the war for s5 is now $750; the fieecy wool mattress baby's basket and baby's high chair are all up propor- tionately.
 Nurses wages have advanced $5 or more and her keep is costing at least one-third more-an increase of $50 or more a year.
