AS in several cases, there is a dis

the city ordinance, the former giving
a speed Of ten miles as the limit with

that it is illegal to go at rate ex-

Taoler declined to plead guilty to
violating the ordinance, but pleaded
guilty to the charge of exceeding the

MUCH FALL FLOWING
SOUTH Of BISMARCK

Much fall blowing is being done
south of Bismarck in Emmons, Logan
and Mcintosh counties, declares E. H.
Pierce, inspector of the dairy depart
ment, who returned yesterday from a
trip through that region.
Mr.. Pierce declares that he has
never seen much fall blowing done
before in this territory and he takes
this to be a very encouraging sign for
improved crop conditions hereafter.
He does not believe that more than
10 per cent of wheat this year will
be cut. The low yield was due in
many respects to planting on stubble.

Wilson Confers With Leaders.
All through the morning President
Wilson was at his office at the Capt.
tol, comforting with administration
leaders and aiding in arrangements
for putting the legislation through.
He left Washington at three o'clock
in the afternoon for Long Branch, N.
j., where he will be notified formally
tomorrow of his nomination for re-
election, entirely confident that his
efforts had averted the industrial
catastrophe.
While the house was at work, the
three brotherhood leaders, at the in
VitatiOn of Democratic Leader kitch-
in, occupied the ways and means COM
mite room, near the entrance to the
house floor, and were in constant con-
sultation with the labor spokesman
in the house. They were insistent
that the eight-hour day provision go
through without any of the arbitra-
ton or wage-fiXing amendments put
forward during the debate. Repre-
sentative Casey of Pennsylvania was
constantly on the 90 between them
and Representative Kitchin and Repre-
sentative eKating of Colorado, who
conducted their fight on the floor
When the vote was taken, they OBJ
viously were pleased. Their failure
to make statements was attributed
to fear that anything they might say
would have an undesirable effect up
on deliberations in the senate.
Great Crowd Present.
A great crowd thronged into the
senate galleries for the night session.
The house was represented by scores
of members, including Speaker Clark,
who took a seat on the floor near
Senator Underwood.
In asking unanimous consent to lay
aside the senate bill and take up the
one sent over from the house, Sena-
tor Newlands. criticised congress for
not responding to the presidents de-
mands for legislation which would
serve as "a protection against future
labor crisis, and because of fears to
face the issue because of the politi-
cal campaign.
Senator Thomas also said that con-
gress,. and not the president, was
evading the responsibility of meeting
a great emergency in way to make
its action permanent in character
cummins Against Bill.
Senator Cummins made long
speech against the bill. He said the
country was confronted with appal-
ling disaster and he was not prepared
to say the senators should not yield
to some Of their convictions to avert
it, though it was impossible for him
to believe the problem should be
solved in the way proposed. He de-
clared, in his opinion, the amend
ment. of Senator Underwood would
absolutely destroy the object of the
bill, and he doubted if it would be
satisfactory to the brotherhood lead |
ers. -..

duty. 81 acquit them" he added, "of

UNCLE SAM BUYS WELL
Cuts Cost of Feeding His Sailors
While Prices Soar.
Result Is Obtained Largely by Requir-
ing Competitive Bids on Every
Item in Provision Contracts.

In these days when the price of pro-
isions is advancing, it may be inter-
.sting to know that Uncle Sam solves
he problem of giving to the man be-
lind the guns all the food he needs
without making too heavy a drain on
he public treasury.
Since the outbreak of the war in
europe the cost of provisions general
has steadily increased; and yet, ac-
.ording to the navy department, the
iverage cost of subsisting one man per
lay in our navy has, for the first three
luarters of the fiscal year 1916,
iropped more than three-quarters of a
.ent from the average for the fiscal
5ear ended June 80, 1914. This would
mean net saving cost of foodstuffs of
lbout 100000 in the subsistence of the
navy in spite of the increased cost of
,oodstuffs, due to war conditions.
If, as indicated by official records,
prices of provisions have advanced on
the average of 10 per cent since the
outbreak of the war, this would mean a
comparative lesser cost for subsisting
The navy during the fiscal year 1916
Of something like a half million dol
lars.
Department officials think that one
If the great factors in thus reducing
The cost of subsistence was an order
promulgated in August, 1914, by the
secretary, requiring that no provision
requisition would thereafter call for
any proprietary article, any food sub
stitute or any other item on which pub
tic competition could not be had.
Therefore, in lieu of prepared foods
md food substitutes, the men are now
supplied with fresh provisions, which,
whenever practicable, include season
fruits and vegetables; and, with the
modern equipment installed on board
naval vessels, good and wholesome
food is prepared on the ships from the
raw material. The result is that the
daily bill of fare in the fleet is at least
ns good as, if not indeed superior to,
that of the average home on shore.
Improvement in the purchasing sys-
tenn is also in measure responsible
for the decreased cost of subsistence.
The first step toward reform along
these lines was the passage by con-
gress of the requirement that all pro-
vision contracts be awarded, item by
item, to the lowest bidder on each I;
whereas formerly different kinds of
provisions We're grouped into classes
and the lowest bidder on each class
was given the contract for that class.

MAKE PAPER OF WILD GRASS
Investigation Shows That Material
Found in Profusion in Burma Can
Be Used Successfully.

The wild kaing grass of Burma may
De used for the manufacture of paper,
Uncle Sam has learned. The possibili-
les of using this grass for paper max
,ng have been under investigation by
British paper manufacturers and 9TH
srs interested in the matter for several
years and it is now announced that the
conversion of this grass into pulp and
subsequently into paper can be accom-
plished in a simple and economical
manner. 1t is said that arrangements
soon will be made for the collection of
the grass, its conversion into pulp and
its shipment in that form to paper
makers in the United Kingdom.
Kaing grass grows in great profu-
sion in all parts of Burma, frequently
reaching a height of ten feet. AS pa
per-making material it may be classed
with espartO grass, and is much cheap
er, though the quality of the pulp is
not quite so good as that obtained
with esparto. Esparto grass is to a
large extent cultivated, whereas kaing
grass grows wild and is sometimes
rank and coarse. BY systematic cut
ting, however, over properly preserved
preas, finer grass of uniform quality
can be obtained in a very short time,

Forest Notes
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
(I'rom the United States Forest Service.)

One ton of coniferous wood waste
will produce from 15 to 25 gallons of
190-proof alcohol.
The farm woodlots of the United
States contain about 10 per cent of the
total standing timber in the country.
Grazing experts of the forest service
estimate that the cost of producing
lambs in the northwestern states is
S1.S2 per head.
The stand of timber on the two
great national forests in Alaska is esti-
mated by the forest service as over
10000, 100000 board feet, while the an
nual growth will, it is said, produce of
bulpwood alone enough for the manu-
facture of 5000 tons of wood pulp u
lay.
Oak is the most suitable wood for
carving, on account of its durability
and toughness, without being too hard.
Chestnut, American walnut, mahogany
and teak are also desirable, while for
fine work Italian walnut, lime, syca-
more, apple, pear or plum are gener-
ally chosen.

BY CHALMERS COMP ANY
New Director of Advertising Favors
Newspapers.

Following his policy of strengthening
the sales and advertising. organization of
the Chalmers Motor Company, E. II.
Morse, vice president of the selling di-
vision has just announced the appoint
ment of w. l.. Agnew as director of ad-
vertising.
Mr.. Agnew, who has already assumed
his new duties, is one of the best known
advertising men in the automobile in
dustry. For the past four years he has
been advertising manager for the Hud-
son Motor Car Company and has been
responsible for much of the excellent
selling copy placed by that concern. Be
fore joining the Hudson Company, he
was a prominent member of the copy
staff of Lord & Thomas, Chicago adver-
tising agents.
According to Mr.. Agnew, Chalmers ad-
vertising plans call for widespread use
of daily newspapers during the coming
year. He has a high regard for the
ability of newspaper space to deliver the
goods, and has directed a large appro-
prIation for this purpose in the 1917 cam
paign.
