Has Been No Small Factor in
Checking Central Powers,
Official Statement Says.
GREAT PRAISE BESTOWED
ON THE CHIEF OF STAFF
Gen. Cadorna Cited in Review as "A
Powerful Organizer and
Cautious Strategist."

ROME, July 2s-Complying with
request from the Associated Press, the
italian authorities have prepared
statement reviewing the past year OF
war from the italian viewpoint Al
though the anniversaries that are
marked by the early days Of August
close the second year Of the war for
Germany. Austria-Hungary. Russia,
France and Great Britain, Italy has
only a little more than passed the first
anniversary of her participation In the
conflict. which began May 20. 1915. But
in the view of the italian authorities.
Italy's alignment with the entente
powers has been no small factor in
checking the successes Of the central
powers.
In the statement officially prepared
for the Associated Press great praise
is bestowed on Gen. Cadorna, the 1tal-
ian chief of staff, as "a powerful or
ganfzer and cautious strategist, who
is declared to have conducted his cam
paign against Austria with view to
rendering the greatest possible aid to
the entente allies. 1t Is asserted that
the early reverses of the Russians
might have run into complete disaster
Russian retreat entered the conflict
and forced Austria to employ vast
number of her troops on the southern
boundaries. Further, the onensives
which the Italians have launched from
time to time rendered 1t impossible for
Austria to carry out her purpose OF
sending troops and artillery either to
the aid of the German crown prince for
the attack on Verdun or to fight the
Russians.

Text of italian Statement.

As given out, the Italian statement
reads as follows:
'"The war which Italy is fighting with
her allies is imperfectly understood
abroad in it's ideals as well as in its
technical development, thus needing ex-
plantations even after a year of Italy's
participation in the conflict.
when the European war began Italy
held back for ten months. respecting
the alliance, which for a third of a
century bound her to the central en-
pires. But longer than this she could
not disregard the call of the entente
powers. They were fighting for prin-
ciple of nationality to which Italy Is
fighting for principles of law and JUS
tice of which Italy has been an expo
nent since the time Of the Romans.
Furthermore Italy could no longer
delay solution OF the question OF the
italian provinces that were still sub
Ject to persecution by Austria. 1t was
imperative that Italy should contest the
frontier imposed by Austria after the
war of 1866, which gave her northern
neighbors possession of all the gates
imperative also that Italy should gain
supremacy in the Adriatic. without
which she could never be said to enjoy
liberty and peace in full security.
although unprepared for war, we
fortunately possessed in Gen Cardono
q powerful organizer and a cautious
strategist. Taking the italian army on
its modest peace footing as backbone,
he transformed IT, through miracles OF
energy and military science. into a
army, which ON May "a. 1915. the day
after war was declared on Austria, sud
denly threw itself across the whole
frontier into the enemy's territory.

AGAINST PICKETING.

Seattle. Wash.-The State Federation
of Labor is in the thick OF a fight to
repeal the anti-picketng law, rushed
through the State legislature and APP
proved by the governor between March
and March 10, last year. While the
law prohibits picketing it is an attack
on free speech, free press and all other
forms OF publicity, which is defined in
Section |
"Whoever shall, for the purpose OF
carrying on, calling attention to, or ad-
vertising, directly or indirectly, any

business, or his employe, or for the pur-
pose OF hindering or preventing such
person from conducting his business in
any lawful way, or employing or re-
tanning in his employ any person who
may lawfully engage i'll such business.
The law specifically states that amy
person who shall engage in picketing
shall be guilty OF a misdemeanor.' r.

Harry McGrew, the Mayor of Sharon,
is alarmed when the gang of tramps
who built the speedway will be turned

BETTER ECONOMIC PLAN
NEEDED, says BURD|Ck
PRODUCTION, DISTRIBUTION, FL
NANCE ALL ESSENTIAL TO
FARMERS WELFARE

"The economic welfare of the farm.
ers in North Dakota, depends upon
three elements" says Usher L. Bur
dick, candidate for governor on the
republican ticket, first production;
second, distribution, and third finance
$50 far as production is concerned
North Dakota has taken an advanced
stand and probably done more on that
feature than is justified in light of the
question of distribution and finance.
Concerning the question Of distribu-
ton, there is no subject of more
Importance to the farmers of this
state that the question Of the ter

proposition and that I am now un-
questionably in favor of terminal
elevator at St. Paul and Superior.
believes that these elevators could re-
ceive support from the state in the
way of appropriations, but I do not
believe that the state should ever 60
into the grain business.
"The actual handling of grain
should be done through board of
directors appointed by the growers
themselves and the terminal elevator
should never become a political insti-
tuition. The moment it becomes such
it's good purpose and service to the
people will be destroyed.
ITO build a terminal elevator in
the state would mean a division in the
ranks Of the grain growers Of the
northwest. In my opinion they should
stand loyalty by the plan as outlined
b ythe Equity Exchange in st. Paul.
"On the question Of finance, the
third element of the economic welfare,
of the farmers, it is a matter of rec
ord that the farmers of the nation
are paying on their indebtedness of
SC, ,000, 100000, an average rate of
Of 8 1-2 per cent, while 9TH
er industries manufacturing concerns,
etc., are paying an average of three
and a half to four per cent. The f.
nance of the farmer has been neglect
ed and should receive immediate as
sistance from the national govern
ment in the way of practical COM

Kaiser DecOrates
CAPTAIN Karl Bowed

London, May ia Central News
dispatch from Amsterdam says that
Captain Karl Boy-ed, formerly Ger
man naval attache at Washington, has
been decorated with the Order of the
Red Eagle of the third class, with
swords, by Emperor Williams. Cap
tain Boy-ed was appointed to the
Washington embassy in Dec, 1911.
After various charges had been
made against him in regard to his
connection with passport frauds, the
equipment of German commerce trad
ers from this country, and German
intrigues in Mexico, President Wilson
requested his recall. ..
After the president has declined a
request from Berlin to explain the
reasons for the demand for Boy-ed's
recall, the attache was ordered home
last December.
Charges against Boy-ed continued
after his departure from this country
in March of this year, when Horst
Won Der Goltz arrived in New York
in connection with the plot to blow up
the Welland canal in Canada. He
had statement charging that Boy-ed
had proposed the invasion of Canada
from the United States.

SUCCESSFULLY EMPLOYED
BY So. OAK. MERCHANT

A Mobridge merchant doesn't de.
pend upon the local newspapers to
fight the mail order houses for him
by printing editorials teaching tn.
wickedness of buying away from
home, while the merchant himself,
possibly. sends away for his own
printing. The Mobridge merchant has
q better system than that. He fights
the mail order houses on their own
ground. Last week in q page adver-
tisement in the local paper this Mo-
bridge merchant compared the aprons
he sold with the aprons sold by mail
order concern. The merchant bought
q dozen aprons from the manufac-
turer he usually patronizes, for 50
a dozen, or thirty-three and third
cents apiece. ..
Then he went through mail order
catalogue and sent away for an apron
the mail order concern charged 49
cents for, with 6 cents extra for
postage, which, with a 2-cent stamp
made the apron cost him 81 cents.
Then he placed one of the aprons
from his 81 lot, and the mail order
houses 49 cent apron, side by side on
his counters, priced them the same,
and without telling his patrons that
one apron was mail order apron and
the other an apron made for him to
sell at 49 cents, asked comparisons be-
tween the two aprons.
And forty-three Mobridge women
signed statements saying that in
their opinion the apron kept in stock
b ythe Mobridge man was worth from
10 to 35 cents more than the mail or
der apron. The same Mobrige mer-
chant recently made the same COM
parison between $25 worth of gro
ceries at his store and $25 worth of
mail order groceries, with the same
results.
1t is safe to say there are lot of
Mobridge people who cannot be en-
ticed by the mail order house cata-
logues now. The Mobridge merchant
has shown them, and isn't afraid to-
spentd printers ink to do it.-Aber-

SHARP CONTEST FOR
JUDGESH|P CERTAIN
EIGHT CANDIDATES IN FIELD
AND ONLY THREE OFFICES
TO BE FILLED

Fargo, N. D.-With eigh, announc-
ed candidates in the field for the state
supreme court, and with but three
vacancies to be filled in the forthcom-
ing election, North Dakota will be
provided with strikingly interesting
judicial fight that may equal that of a
few years ago, when such bitter
fight was staged to fill the three
posts that are now again being con-
tested for.
Chief Justice Charles J. Fisk, and
associate Justices E. B. Goss and F..
L. Burke are the members of the
court whose terms expire at this
time, and their successors, for six
year terms, will be chosen in the gen.
eral election in November.
In the statewide primary of June
2S, however, six candidates who will
enter the general election campaign,
will be chosen, the law providing for
such elimination by providing a non
partisan election, entirely Independent
ofthe primaries of the political par
ties. This measure provides that for
each supreme court vacancy there
may be two candidates nominated in
the primary election. In the coming
election there being three vacancies
six candidates will be nominated.
While there are eight candidates in
the race at the present time, there is
a possibility that this number will be
increased.
One set of candidates is running
for the court under the endorsement
fthe North Dakota Farmers Nom
partisan Political league, being J. E.
Robinson of Fargo, R. H. Grace of
Mohall, and Luther E. Birdzell of
Grand Forks, the last named being
a member Of the faculty of the state
law school. Robinson was a candi-
date several years ago, but failed of
nomination, though he made a most
picturesque campaign.
Burleigh F. Spalding of Fargo, for
mer chief justice Of the sup
court, former congressman from
North Dakota, is a newly announced
candidate for the court. He was de.
feated two years ago by A. M. Chris
tianson of Towner.
John c. Adamson of Devils Lake.
formerly of Bottineau, has also been
in the field for some time past, and
is making an active campaign.
- Reports are to the effect that G.. L.
Young of Bismarck, former assistant
attorney general of the state may en-
ter the race, but he has made no am
nOuncement yet.

United States and southern Canada,

Habits and economic status: This
10 the largest as it is one of tho most
beautiful of the swallow tribe. It
formerly built its nests in cavities
Of trees, as 1t still does in wild dis.
tricts, but learning that man was .
friend it soon adopted domestic habits.
Its presence about the farm can often
be secured by erecting houses suit
able for nesting sites and protecting
them from usurpation by tho English
sparrow, and every effort should be
made to increase the number Of colo
MES of this very useful bird. Tho
boxes should be at . reasonable
height, say IS feet from the ground,
and made inaccessible to cats. A colo
ny of these birds on . farm makes
great inroads upon the insect popu.
lation, as the birds not only them
selves feed upon insects but rear their
young upon the same diet. Fifty years
ago in New England It was not uncom-
mon to see colonies of so pairs OF
martins, but most of them have now
vanished for no apparent reason ex-
cept that the martin houses have de-
cayed and have not been renewed.
More than three-fourths Of this birds
food consists of wasps, bugs, and
beetles, their importance being in the
order given. The beetles include sev.
eral species Of harmful weevils, %
the clover.leaf weevils and tho nut
Weevils. Besides these are many crane
flies, moths, May dies, and dragon.

Improper Incubation

While in a great many instances
the incubator or the hen is blamed
when the cause lies in the eggs
themselves, still there are times
when poor matches are due to faulty
incubation. If you have Matching

troubles look to your eggs first and
is right here, then study your ineu-
baton.
OF course there are some incuba-
tors that are not built right or that
are not adapted to all conditions but
the majority will give satisfaction if
the directions coming with them are
followed and the operator exercises
good common sense. Therefore, to
avoid trouble with incubation if you
are beginner, stick to the directions
that come with the incubator and do
not try experiments Of your own.
If you are using hens and have
trouble see that your nests are Ar
ranged properly. Nests are often
poorly arranged and unprotected from
other birds in the flock, the settlers
are allowed to become infested with
lice, eggs are soiled by breakage and
are not cleaned, and feeding and wa
tering is often neglected. These mis-:
takes are easily remedied and it will
pay you to look out for them. II
you want good matches give your SET
ters good care. Sprinkle the hens
with a good lice powder and put some
in their dust bath. It will destroy
body lice and keep them off the lit
tie chicks when they hatch out. Free
from lice, little chicks have much
better chance to get good start in
life and to keep the energy with
which they are born, to fight off 9TH
er natural troubles, rather than vast
ing it on vitality sucking lice: In
raising chicks as in many other things
in life remember that an ounce of pre-
vention is worth pound Of cure.
