Welding Platinum.

A new process has been recently de-
vised in England for the welding Of
platinum contacts on springs. thus et-
fecting saving In the amount of platt-
mum used. Essentially, the main tea-
ture Of the process is the placing Of a
thin coating Of copperplate on the
platinum, which not only facilitates
the task, but also reduces the welding
current necessary. An automatic weld
ing machine is used In the process. It
takes a strip of platinum sheet or a
coil OF platinum wire, depending on
whether fiat or pointed contact is de-
sired, and deposits q piece Of platinum
Of the proper size on the spring and
holds itin position during the welding
operation. The welded contact is fat
tened or pointed by Idle as It leaves
the machine. Ii /. 4

GROWING GOOD TEE h.
Y 1t is up to mothers to see that chill
dren grow good teeth. tss:.
I Foundations for teeth are made. or
married to a great extent by the food
the children receive.
Asido from the question OF nourish-
ment for the teeth, however, there is
the problem Of their proper use and
exercise.
Exercise is just as necessary to the
proper development and healthful
maintenance OF the teeth and tissues
into which they arc set as Of any 9TH
er part of the body.
In these days Of breakfast foods and
mush there Is apt to be supera-
abundance OF soft foods and not
enough requiring vigorous chewing.
The result is that teeth, jaws and
mouth fail to develop properly and to
even maintain their normal condition.
This causes Irregularities of the
teeth.
There is even reason to believe that
the evil effect Of insufficient chewing
extends to the nasal passages and
may have something to do with the
presence OF troublesome growths in
these passages which in turn often
cause mental hackwardness In chill

Charlotte started the craze.

began to break into the newspapers.

In New York. where many fad.
start, Charlotte and her ice ballet
colleagues gave the thing impetus.
New York folk took to the Kinks with
unprecedented enthusiasm.
Charlotte's press agent says she
was in i'll health before she took to
skating at the age OF 6. Whatever
was the matter with Charlotte is
isn't any more. She does as many
things on ice as Paylowa does on the
stage. She is even more daring, be-
cause there is more chance for the
skates to slip than for Pavlowa to lose
control OF her educated tootsies.
Charlotte comes onto the rink for
her performance like a shot from a
42.centimeter gun. At the center OF
the stage she brings herself up on her
right toe and begins to whirl. She
makes 90 revolutions.
There are not many Charlottes in
the country, but there are thousands
OF just ordinary skaters, some who
have skated for years, and many 9TH
ers who never put on pair Of skates
until the craze swept over the coun-
try, crowded ponds and lakes and put
thousands OF dollars into the hands
OF skate and skate accessory makers.

Notes on the Wedding

As the services were going on news
was brought that the Carignan baby
was better This was a happy in
cident portcntious Of good luck to
come.
They say that Saturday weddings
are fashionable. The elect Of the
east are using this day now instead
Of Wednesday. Jack and his bride
had planned on pulling off the we'd
ding on Wednesday, but had to
postpone it on account of the sick
ness of his little brother, at the St.
Alexius hospital in Bismarck.
They say that Jack was nervous,
but you could hear every word he
said up in the choir loft. / will''
came out strong, manly and brave,
but Charley tells that before the
wedding, when Jack tried to give
directions about placing the auto
mobile, he said, Put the church on
the left side of the car" and.oncc
he asked, "Where's the car to the
key?" He might have been a lit
tie shakcy after all.

Fa1ners Save 1915
Wheat For Seeding
Farmer. are Urged to Save Wheat on
Hand from Last Years Crop for Seed.
1916 Wheat Damaged

Unless the 1915 wheat now held
by farmers and elevators in North
Dakota. is kept from the market
and retained as seed for 1917, agri-
cultural authorities claim that the
prospect for good crop next year
is poor.
The Agricultural college reports
that the seed derived from the 1916
crop will not bring good yields, or
furnish hardy plant that can with
stand the ravages of the elements.
and will be more suceptible to rust.
In order to furnish substantial
basis upon which to start the 1917
crop, experts urge that the present
wheat now being held, be kept for
seed purposes.
The attention of farmers through
out the entire state will be called to
this problem and those who have
disposed of their entire 1915 pro-
duct are urged to purchase seed as
soon as possible, before the entire
crop is thrown on the market.

Sioux County Has
Excellent I respects
Livestock and Diversified Farming Will
Bring Prosperity to Sioux County
Country is Settling Fast

With five or possibly six new
bridges constructed in Sioux county
during the year as the program OF
the county commissioners now call
for, and the grading OF miles Of
splendid road by the Indian Depart
ment, the reservation country is
coming into its own The many
tracts of choice Indian land sold
during the, year together with the
lands entered by homesteaders has
brought new settlers to increase the
population and wealth of the county.
While the wheat crop was a par
tial failure here as elsewhere, yet
the splendid fields of flax, oats and
corn shows the productiveness Of
the soil, and the influx of new set
tiers should be steady from now on.
However, live stock, cattle, horses
and hogs is what the new settlers
should go in for more than raising
small grain. Frequent rains have
kept the range in good condition
and cattle have thrived well, maxi
ing the stockman take notice of what
a valuable asset they are. Beef cat
tie Lave also made wonderful de-
velopment. Most stock because Of
long cold winter were unusually thin
this spring. Grass was late in
starting but made a wonderful
growth and North Dakota can de-
pend on some of the best conditions
for range stock this fall. When one
considers how much less subject to
disease grass and some other crops
arc than wheat. and how stock can
be fed successfully y even after hail
storm has put grain crop out Of
running, it ought to cause so:.le OF
the farmers to look more favorably
upon clovenhoofed farm animals.
No better or more nutritious grass
can be found anywhere for pasturing
than in Sioux county The hay
crop is always ample, and with the
thousands Of acres Of Indian land
that can be leased for a nominal
raasztal, Tor grazing l,sfpssess mo'aaere
favored locality can be found any
where in the Northwest for the live
stock industry.
Corn will also be good crop this
year, and with hogs selling at the
st. Paul market this week for $1O.-.
60, the farmer with a carload or
two of hogs to sell can look into the
future with cheerful confidence.

Covey Getting Inquiries

Superintendent Covey, in charge
of the Standing Rock reservation,
states that owing to the numerous
inquiries for land, he has about de-
cided to to hold another SAFE of
non-competent and inherited In
dian lands this fall.
Ii the changed appraisals can be
made in time to get the list in shape
the sale will be advertised for the
latter part Of November or first part
of December. As the lands must
be advertised go days before the
date Of sale, prospective purchasers
will have ample time to inspect the
land this fall before cold weather
sets in.
AS it takes considerable time to
have the sales approved by the de-
partment at Washington, it would
be advisable for parties wishing to
purchase land with the view OF uti-
]izing it next season to submit their
bids at the fall sale.
This early notice is given so that
interested parties can arrange to
look over the lands while weather
are favorable and the
roads in good shape for travel.
The complete list of lands for sale
together with the appraised price OF
each tract will be advertised in the
