CHILD LABOR BILL
IS DISCUSSED
Debate on Naval Proposition In
terrupted at Session of
Senate.

Washington, July 21.-The. child
labor bill, which President Wilson is
advocating, got into the naval bill de-
bate today, when Senator Hardwick
of Georgia charged that it evidently
was the purpose of the Republicans
Of the senate "to play party politics
with this great measure" He called
attention to Leader Gallinger's state
ment that Republican senator's were
eager for its early passage.
II had no such purpose" Senator
Gallinger declared. 'T made the
statement because the people of the
country want the bill passed"
Senator Hardwick declared the
measure was unconstitutional and re-
called that Senator Gallinger had said
so last February. Mr.. Gallinger re-
piled he still had doubts about its
constitutionality, but was willing to
vote for it and leave the question to
the courts.
Senator Eorah got the unanimous
consent agreement to take up the
child labor. bill as soon as appropria-
ton bills we're completed, with L.
hour debate limits on each side.
Consideration of the proposal was
blocked by Senator Swanson insist
ing on the naval appropriations bill.

London, July 21.-The intensity Of
the British and French attacks against
the Germans along the Somme river

Boys Jubilant.
The camp of the First North Da-
kota will be within six miles Of the
Rio Grande and 65 miles from San
Antonio, Texas.
All day yesterday the boys were
in jubilant mood. The published re-
port yesterday, announcing that the
departure was only matter Of few
days, put them in happy frame Of
mind, although yesterday noon they
received a shock when a rumor was
circulated that the porters had been
sent home on No. 4 and the cars
would follow soon, empty. But the
cup of Joy was filled to overaowing
when the news passed around last
night that orders had been received
to entrain and that the time Of leav-
ing was matter only for the nation
al guard officials to decide.
Fear No Order. ,.
The soldiers have not been caying
much, but the fear that they would
not be ordered south has been almost
universal during the last five days.
The published explanation yesterday
morning of the delay in entraining
because Of the measles was the hrst
intimation they had that orders had
been received, but had been held in
allegiance until the danger of mea-
sles epidemic had passed. 4
May Form New Regiment.
No definite decision has been reach,
ed regarding the recruiting Of new
regiment to be stationed at Fort Lin
coin. If the equipment can be secur-
ed from the war department It Will
doubtless be raised at once.
North Dakota under the new militia
bill must raise three regiments, but
she has five years within which to do
so.
Many persons from Bismarck and
from other cities and towns were. =
the camp yesterday afternoon to gee
the dress parade and hear the band
concert. The governor and star NJ
viewed the troops and Photographer
Holmboe took movies Of the attract
i've parade.
Neither Thursday nor yesterday did
any of the men fall out during The pa-
rades. This indicates that life ct the
camp has hardened them. becauoe IN
the parades held soon after they were
mobilized many were carried out oa
stretchers.

Hens will not lay we'll on just
any kind Of feed. They must
have egg producing feeds and
these will include grains, rye,
greens or pasture, clover, or
wheat, etc. worms or rabbits
or some other meat food and
grits. Equal parts of wheat
and corn, half as much oats
fed in straw or leaves make a
good dry feed for winter. Then
a dry mash, say five pounds of
bran, five pounds of shorts and
three and one-half pounds OF
meat scraps will make a good
feed. If milk is available the
meat scrap is not necessary.
Eggs in some Arkansas cities
are now selling for thirty cents
and in the East tor fifty cents.
