Cold weather has not interfered with
outdoor work materially in Richmond.
Laborers and outdoor skilled work.
men seemed to have become acclimat-
ed despite the frequent changes in
the temperatures and the character of
tie weather Many work without
gloves on days when 1t is below freez-
ing, warming up before small bonfires
occasionally.
There are more men at work on the
Pennsylvania railroad improvement
now than ever before and most of
the company's commissary car and
sleeping quarters on the improvement.
The work is not going on as rapidly
as in warmer weather but is progress
ing satisfactorily
At the Richmond plant of the Atlas
Underwear company, the foundations
for the. big addition are about done and
soon the walls will go upward. The
excavation work was not delayed by
the cold as gravel was found under the
surface.
Workmen are going ahead with the
Richmond Malleable Iron company s
foundry buildings with celebrity, despite
the fact that they are practically work
ing in outside temperatures. The
buildings are entirely rooted so snow
and rain are not disturbing elements

should just now pay more than ordi-
nary attention to advertising and
why their course should be watched
with interest by advertisers all over
the country. Advertising is valuable
to the advertiser, not only in it's re-
lation to the number of persons into
whose hands the announcements can
be placed, but in relation to the abil-
ity of those persons to buy goods.
And the sober fact is that North d.
kota is the best selling market on
the American continent today.
Not only has North Dakota more
wealth per capita than any other
state but that wealth is more gener-
ally distributed among the people.
We have none of the extremes of
wealth and poverty which are to be
found, for instance in the crowded
cities of the east. There is in this
state a condition of general comfort,
and wen atfluance which is not dupll-
Gated in any other state. Our people
have money, and they are ready to
spend it in all things which make for
better living. Hence the advertisers
message to them is likely to be a
fruitful one. Stated in terms of CRU
~lation, thousand for thousand, an inch
of advertising in a North Dakota
newspaper is worth to the advertiser
more money than an inch in a news
paper in any other state in the Union.
For their efforts North Dakota
gives her citizens more for their
labor.
North Dakotans have the money
with which to buy.

NORTH DAKOTA GOOD FIELD

One of the strong points made by
the advertising experts at the Press
Association Convention at Grand
Forks recently was that advertisers
in the North Dakota newspapers get
more for their money than those in
other parts of the country.
The modern business mar scarcely
needs to be reminded Of the value of
advertising. It's efficacy has been
demonstrated on too many occasions
to need a fresh demonstration today.
And the men who have made the
closest study of the subject, and are
most conversant with it are united in
the opinion that the newspaper is by
all means the best advertising
medium known.
There is a special a why

CATTLE STATE

The state of Wyoming occupied first
place in the production of wool for
the year 1915, and now she has dis
.tinguished herself at the Denver live
stock show with her prize cattle.
Wyoming, with her small population,
has already made the eastern states
sit up and take notice, but what will
be the result in a few years hence
when all the valuable are
developed? It will be the richest and
best state in the union. When a
prize-winning Hereford bull, raised
in Wyoming, can sell for $4,000 it
goes to show we have some cattle
country.-Worland (Wyo.) Grit.

The editor of the Dickinson Press
was accorded the honor of being elect
ed as one of the three members of
the executive committee of the
North Dakota Press association, at
the convention held in Grand Forks
last week. The press members of the
Missouri Slope were anxious for rep
resentation in the association, and
accordingly the writer was chosen for
the place. We will try to perform the
duties of this important office with
credit to the association, the Slope

TRAITOR SLAIN FATHER REFUSES
 TO GIVE BURIAL

NANHNIiH "AfNANN ENftNNNN'"tf
 AMSTERDAM, Feb. H. Furthor details arc coming from the Belgian frontier of the assassination of Nels de Rode, Belgian. who is alleged to have betrayed Miss Edith Gavin Eng fish nurse. executed by Germans. at Brussels
 According to this story the body Of young man who had been killed by two revolver shots was found In q street In schaarbeek, a suburb of Brussels. early one morning. He was recognized as De Rade. n mrn of % years. son of a retired major of Bel gian army. The body lay before tho door of the mans parents, but the father refused to receive it, and 1t was taken to the public mortuary,
 Immediately ,he German authori- ties heard of tho case they gave strict orders that the affair be kept quiet as possible but Instructed the police at the same time to make every ef- fort to discover the assassin. The news spread rapidly, however and be. fore noon all Brussels knew that a man regarded by the Belgians as a traitor had been put to death.
 The slain man. it is said, had been suspected for a long time Of spying for the Germans. It was reported that he. together with an individual of the same stamp, had made a spec ialty of enticing young men to take service in the Belgian army. and then, when they were on the point of leav- ing the country, delivering them to the Germans.
 But recently. 1t is stated. proof had been obtained that it was De Rode who betrayed Miss cavell to the Ger mans, as well as the architect Baucq, who was put to death with her. From that moment De Rode's death sentence was signed. There is. 1t appears, a sort of society in Belgium whose en. tire membership have sworn to levy Justice" on those who do spying ser vice for the Germans Those who shot De Rode are sad to have found papers on him that will enable them to trace other such spies
 In reply to this challenge. General von Bissing. the German governor of Belgium. not only imposed a fine of $125.OOO on Brussels. but levied a fine of $12.5OO against shaarbeek where the deed was committed
 Further the civil police of the latter place, 400 strong. have been disband ed, and the Municipal Council has to appoint sixty sworn and paid agents in their place.

 The city street force started this morning tearing up the old planlfing on Third street. from Main up the hill towards the courthouse. New planking will be put in at once. This improvement has been badly needed for some time as the street was in bad condition. The heavy traffic on the street due to the construction of the A. B. building and the tearing up of the planking to lay water and sewer connections tore the roadway up in bad shape
