railroad continues south on the east
of the River Jordan as far as Medina.
THE other line turns from Deraia
first In a westward direction and then
southwark, passing between Jaffa and
Jerusalem, and going as far as the
Egyptian-Turko frontier.
THE military operations which
have taken place in southern Pales-
tine are exceedingly important from a
military point of view; As the British
were obliged to push forward their
defenses of Egypt to a line well east
of the Suez canal, 1t is obviously
highly important that they establish
these lines well to the east and north
east of the Sinai peninsula and there
fore beyond the desert area.
Again. the capture of Jaffa and
the occupation of the area beyond its
places the British in position to
threaten, If not to cut, the Deraia -Je-
rusalem railroad, and therefore to
sever all communication with Jerusa-
lem. The capture Of Jerusalem would
mean the taking of a place OF great
military impc, ,ance, the occupation
of a military center, which, In this
part Of the Ottoman empire is second
In Importance to Damascus. With
Jerusalem captured. the British would
be in a position to easily advance
across the Jordan to the HedjeZ rail-
road. and by cutting thta line, sever
all Turkish connection with Arabia.
Their operations are of the utmost
importance, for they would be in a
better position TO draw off and pre-
vent the sending Of reinforcements to
Mesopotamia.
Judging by my experience in Tur-
key and my acquaintance with the
Turks, think. too, that the moral ef-
feet of British successes in Palestine
must be almost equal in significance
with their military success. To begin
with, British occupation of Jerusalem.
following as 1t would the capture OF
Pagdad, cannot fail to have the very
greatest effect on the mentality OF the

Auto Industry Prosperous.

Evidence that the automobile in
dustry is reaping n fair share CT the
benefits OF the 30-cent cotton pros
perity OF the south Is contained In
n report from the Jordan Motor Car
company OF Cleveland showing large
increases In sales thruout the south

to the Union Motor Car company.

Many humorous stories OF the ef-
rects OF the unusual prosperity on
the southern farmers are being re-
ported by the dealers " the south.
The story is told OF the darhy who
was made suddenly rich by the sale Of
n $4,000 cotton crop. and celebrated
hy buying a $4,000 automobile. lie

decided TO throw away his automobile

these centres as the two most import
ant in Asiatic Turkey. Moreover. the
Moslems, of course, consider Mecca
and Medina as their two most holy
cities, Jerusalem is always considered
as sacred place, for the Mohamme-
dams reverence Christ, Moses and
Abraham. The capture Of Jerusalem
would therefore have a considerable
effect because one of the strongest
claims of the sultan of Turkey to the
position OF caliph, or head OF the
Moslem religion, is due to the fact
that he has always been the guardian
Of the three holy cities.
The king Of Hedjez Is, SO far as we
know, In indisputed possession or
Mecca and Medina, and therefore the
loss of Jerusalem, which has been I'm
Mohammedan hands since 1243, more
than two hundred years before the
fall of Constantinople, would mean
the loss of the last three holy places"
Mr.. Woods said that he did not be-
lieve that Turkey was in a position to
make a separate peace, as German
domination In the empire is so strong
that she must keep going with Ger
many.
When Ahmed Diemal Pasha, now
leading the Turkish army opposed to
the British forces, was governor OF
Adana, Mr.. Woods used TO visit him
and discuss with him over innumer-
able cups Of coffee the local and gem
eral situation in Turkey He said he
was favorably impressed with the
governor and his regime.

will make a tour Of the country. This

How fires Are Rim Cut.

Protection from rim cutting is not
to be obtained by any particular type
Of ire, but depends rather upon de-
sign, quality and usage. No good tire
of standard make will be cut by any
standard rim II properly used. But
any type of tire will be injured by
abuse. Riding on a soft or flat tire.
dented and irregular rims, excessive
loads, tire-fillers and stiff-rellners are
tho common causes for cutting and
breaking above the beads.
The flanges Of a rim may become
battered from running a tire 1eflated
for considera bic distance, and In ad-
diton 70 running that tire, the next
tire put on that rim will be cut above
the beads. Tires carrying heavier
loads than those for which they are
designed may break at the beads
where engaged by the clinches Of the

WARNING AGAINST POISON
BEANS.

Prof. Ladd Of the North Dakota Ay-
ricultural College has been more than
busy the past week, examining sample
of beans sent to him from different
cities in the state for analysis. The
reason for this is that a shipment of
foreign grown beans of poisonous
nature have found their way into this
state.
The beans are similar in appear
ance to but larger than the navy bean
bean and grown exclusively in the
East Indies. European countries have
prohibited their importation because
of their poisonous content, but the
United States has no special law di-
rected against them. The federal
bureau of chemistry, however, by APP
plying general laws governing i'm
portations, has succeeded in holdin +: W
shipments until a few weeks ago,
when a considerable quantity was al
lowed to come through.
mrs. Sprague, city pure food m
spector of Grand Forks was the first
to unearth a lot of these beans, hut
since that time there have been a do
zen different lots found in as n:an::
localities. An effort is being made to
locate the balance of the shipment
through the wholesale house that I'm
knowingly distributed them. Every
one should use precaution in buying
beans while these are on the market.
If the bean is larger that the regular
navy bean and of slightly flatted shape
look out for it.

The following press report from St.
Pual speaks of dreams" In Dur es-
timation anyone who predicts that po-
tatoes will sell for 1Oc per bushel had
had a "dream" without a doubt.
potatoes selling at less than fifty
cents a. bushel is beyond the widest
dreams of most persons, but John A.
Tierney of Tieraey & Co., commission
merchants, has announced that the 81
a bushel potato will be selling for its
former humble price and may 20 as
low as 10 cents a bushel when the crop
is harvested AMI he gives the follow
ing reasons for his opinion.
Every n planted potatoes and
there is every indication that the har-
vest this year will produce an over
supply. Two years ago when the mar
ket was flooded, potatoes were sold in
carload lots for seven cents.
The allied countries have made a
special effort to raise large crops and
there is every reason to believe that
the returns will filfull the hope of a
bumper crop. There have been mil
lions killed in Europe and millions of
others wounded. The wounded will
not care to eat as much as a well per-
son and the millions killed will not
have to be fed"

Rube, of Barnum & Bailey's Menag-
erie, Won't Behave Unless Mile
Gilbert Pays Daily Visits to his
Cage...

To say that Rube, the monkey, is in
love with the lady sword swallower
may be putting it a little strong.
However, there are facts from which
the reader may draw conclusions:
When the Barnum & Bailey circus
was at Los Angeles last year, the
monkey cage had been thinned of its
inhabitants through various accidents
and sickness. Rube was on of a cargo
Of quadrumanous mammal of the or
der Primates on a ship that had just
landed and was included in a $4,000
order from the circus. When the new
monkeys arrived all Of the show peo-
pie visited them, as usual, and, as US
ual, there was the resented chattering
and grimacing that goes on when mon
keys see unfamiliar faces. Rube did
his share in the manifestations of re-
sentiment until Mile. Gilbert the sword
swallower, came along. Immediately
he registered undue interest.
AAN~V OAeS4AAOOAA3 WHICH, Vic C1cd1l0IS
opened the monkey cage, ,Rube was
too quick for them and escaped. A
searching party was all excited until
word came from the side show that a
monkey had made his way under the
tents sides and had jumped into the
lap of the sword swallower just as
she was about to sell one of her pho
tographs to an admirihg visitor. Rube
was petted for awhile and then turned
over to keepers, who, unromantic souls
-chucked him back among the other
monkeys where he seemed to be CON
tented until the following afternoon,
when he escaped again and did the
very same trick.
From then on until the close of the
season, Rube tried to escape every
time the cleaners opened the door of
the monkey cage. and when he was
prevented he sulked in a corner uphill
the sword swallower paid him a visit.

REQUIREMENTS FOR MARRIAGE
Parties Applying for License Must
File Affidavit Showing Divorce
Or Otherwise.

Since July 1, when the new law
went into effect, all persons who ap-
ply for a marriage license, must file
with the county court at the time of
the application an affidavit of both
parties to the license setting forth
whether or not they have been divorc-
ed and if divorced a copy of the decree
must be filed.
The application of this law is that
each party to a marriage license must
make affidavit before some person au-
thorized to administer oaths, whether
or not they have been divorced. Thus
the woman, if she does not appear at
the office of the county Judge, must
make this affidavit and it must be pre-
sented by the party making the appli-
cation.
