VALLEY CITY GIRLS
IN LITCHVlLLE SCHOOLS

Litchville Bulletin: Miss Ruth
Marie Witter, of Valley City, will be in
charge of the grammar room. She is a
graduate of the county seat high
school and last week graduated from
the one year professional course of the
Valley City Normal. Her father is EN-.
ployed in the Valley City postoffice
and the family has lived in that city
for many years. Supt Hanna writes:
she is fine girl Of fine chara cter
and habits, and splendid disposition.
She is vigorous and forceful in every
task before her. From childhood she
has been hard worker and tackles
every problem in a business-like way"
The primary room will be in charge
OF Miss Elsie A. Stenshoel, of Valley
City. Miss Stenshoel is a graduate of
the Normal in her home town and has
had three years experience at Rogers
and was reelected for another year at
that place. She has the strongest rec
concentrations from the county sup.
erintendent as well as from the place
she has taught before. w. j. Pickett,
president of the Rogers school board,
writes: Miss Stenshoel has taught
here the past three years and we
would be glad to keep her longer. She
has at all times given entire satisfac-
ton, both in and out of school. I take
great pleasure in recommending her
as through teacher, good in disci.

SUFFRAGE WORKER INJURED

Fargo, June 30-Serious injuries
were sustained by Mrs. A. E. Bestic,
prominent suffrage worker, 315 Thir.
! teenth street south, late Wednesday
night when the automobile in which
she was riding, and driven by her hus.
band, suddenly dropped to a depth of
four feet when the pavement caved
in on Eighth street south, between
Fourth and Fifth avenues, across the
old ravine.
Mrs. Bestic was thrown forward
against the windshield. Four teeth
were broken, her right knee and left
hand were badly hurt, and bruises sus-
tanned on her face. The accident hap
pened about 1915 o'clock, while the
car was travelling north toward the
Bestic home .-... ak.
Mrs. Bestic had attended a suffrage
meeting that evening in one of the
homes on the south side. Her husband
had called for her and had passed over
the same piece of pavement an hour
previous to the accident The machine,
he stated this morning, was travelling
about three miles an hour when the
pavement dropped, leaving cavity
about six feet in diameter in the
street. The fact that the car was not
travelling at high speed doubtless pre-
vented a serious accident.
The heavy rains of Wednesday af-
ternoon and that evening had washed
out the ground under the pavement.
When the car reached the weak spot,
the pavement was unable to support
it,

BIG CROP PREDICTED
BY LOUIS w. HILL

L. w Hill, president Of the Great
Northern railroad, who has returned
from the west, predicts one of the
greatest crops this year that i the
Northwest has ever known. Mr.. Hill
said. the development Of Montana is
remarkable and is going on at rap.
i'd rate. .". .
in North Dakota" said Mr.. Hill
II found outside of the Red River val.
| ley, where it is too wet in some places,
! that conditions are more favorable
| than last year, on account Of favorable
rainfalls. ...
Five years ago we handled $780,
| 900 bushels of grain out of Montana,
and this year, just finished with the
close of last month, June 80, we have
handled a little over 26,0000OO bush
els, or about IS per cent of all grain
shipped from the state of Montana.
II feel that this speaks we'll for the
interest taken by the various com.
munities along the line in co-operat-
ing with US, and the colonizing and
homestead movements that we have
been carrying on since the inaugura.
ton of this policy, which began at the
Billings Dry Farming congress, Octo.
Der, 1909.
Eat that time we endeavored to con.
vince the people of Montana and the
Northwest that Montana had good ar.
able land as yet unoccupiel and un-
surveyed equal to the entire area Of
the state of Iowa. Montana, as is
generally known, is about three times
the size of Iowa. 1t has been our ef-
fort to have this land surveyed and
thrown open to settlement, and as a
result up to March 81 100000 acres
have been homesteaded in the state
in six years.
The Great Falls land office last
year made more land entries than all
similar offices in the United States.
The result of the influx at good farm
ers from our best agricultural states
is very gratifying to the people of the
Northwest and evidently they have
been rewarded for their efforts in COL
onizing this great area.
Il was greatly interested to see
what the crop conditions were for the
coming harvest season and find that
conditions are very favorable over all
the territory travelled in North Dako-
ia and Montana, for all grains other
than corn, and corn is not an import
ant crop with us as yet.
"Our homeseeking and colonist ira
vel keeps up and the best class of Am
erican farmers are coming into the ter
ritory. All of the above growth and
development is very directly reflect
ed in the prosperity of merchants in
the distributing cities and they are
looking forward to another good year
and have every reason to feel more
than hopeful
Il expect to make trip next week
in northern Minnesota, where we have
made the same cooperation. The re-
suults are gratifying"

COPPER PRODUCTION
CONTINUES HEAVY

Under the influence of large de-
mands and resultant high prices the
production of copper during the last
six months has exceeded that of any
equal period in the history of the in
dustry.
The United States geological survey
states that there has been steady
rate of increase|in the output of cop
per since early in 1915. The produc-
ton during the last half of 1915 con-
siderably exceeded that of the first
half, according to the report by B. S.
Butler of the geological survey, and
during the year the refneries produc-
ed, from both domestic and foreign
ores, total of 1,634,O00,0OO pounds of
blister copper, Of which 1,388,O09, 527
pounds was produced from ores mined
in the United States. -"@~
The price for the period has aver
aged about the highest price received
for copper at any time in recent years,
the average for the first six months of
1916 being more than rs cents a
pound. The cost has doubtless in.
creased slightly, as the important cop
per companies have increased the
wages Of their employees, but this in
crease has been largely Offset by de-
crease in cost due to working plants
at the maximum capacity Many small
mines are operating that could not be
pro6tably worked under normal condl-
lions and this, of couse, tends to in
crease the average cost per pound.
The profits of the producing CON-
panies have been large and as much
of the output is sold several months
ahead of delivery the prosperity of the
Industry is we'll assured for the re-
mainder of the year, SO that 1916 will
doubtless be the most profitable year
in the history of copper production to
the present time and possibly for years
to come.

"CHuCk.HCLE" CLUBS

Farm and Fireside: Lyman county
South Dakota, is the home of chuck
hole clubs. What is a chuck-hole
club? 1t consists Of four or five men
or boys each one of whom has an auto
mobile. Each member provides him
self with pick, shovel, or spade;
they climb into the car and fill every
chuck-hole, bad bridge approach, and
any other bad spot in their neighbor.
hood that does not require the work
of regular road gang.
Each member agrees to fill at least
one chuck-hole a month, and to en-.
courage others to help improve the
roads. County Agent Dick Lewallen
organized these clubs, thus adding one
more items to the list of activities in
which county agents may help a com.
munity.
Apparently there is nothing about
the scheme which will not bear trans.
planting to any locality that is inter
ested in better roads.

GOOD TO remember

Every young man should remember
that if his income is just little above
expenses every day, he will eventually
become we'll off. If his receipts daily
lack little Of meeting his expendi
