NORTON TELLS
SOLONS NOTHING
WRONG IN STATE

Bismarck, n. D.. Aug. 13.-"If
can get a half dozen representatives
to join me, intend to get into this
war myself" said Rep. P. D. Norton
of the Third North Dakota district,
during his few hours stay in Bis
marck while en- route to his home at
Hettinger.
It's the greatest conflict of all
time" said the congressman, and II
will be embarrassing in years to
come for the young man now in his
thirties who stays out. He will find
1t difficult to answer the question:
And what part did you take?'
Congress. Representative Norton
stated, is preparing for three years
of war. The war may last six
believes. He feels that congress is
proceeding with its preparations for
war with as much despatch as could
be expected. The house is now en-
joying a three weeks recess, during
which time ii expects the senate to
finish its operations on the revenue
bill. When the house reconvenes,
the bill will go to conference COM
mittees for action on the amend
ments made by the senate.
There's nothing wrong with North
Dakota" said Mr.. Norton. II told
congress so a few days ago. North
Dakota has been made a butt and
joke so long that l could stand 1t
no longer Much that has been re-
ported in the east has been discolor-
ed and distorted until North Dakota
had become a synonym for disloyal-
ty and lack of patriotism. 1t was
not just that the state should ssuffer
for the wild statements of a few of
its citizens or of men who were not
even citizens.
II have been over the eastern half
of the state. and / find that North
Dakota is right on this war situation
as usual"

AVERAGE YIELD
(special to The Forum.)

Detroit, Mimi, Aug. 13.-Crop con-
ditions in Becker county are very un-
certain Harvest is we'll under way,
the wheat yield small but the kernels
are of good color and weight. Oats
and barley are fair, fax medium in
quality and yield. Potatoes on light
soil are almost a total failure owing
to drought. On heavy soil tubers
promise to be of good quality and an
average yield is expected.
The hay crop is very light. Corn
on light soil was injured by the hot
winds, but on heavy soil the outlook
is better. Compared with former
years. in monetary value. the crops
will be about on an average.
Crop conditions, generally speak
ing, are the most spotted known to
residents of this section.

Places.

In spite of the fact that they see
any number of them every day there
is nothing that people know so little
about as places. The world is full Of
all sorts of places. Some places are
smaller than others, but none Of
them is so small that II does not
contain several more still smaller.
Places are simply Indispensable.
You can't get along without them.
There are places pleasant and un-
pleasant and some of the most I'M
pleasant are electric chairs, jail
yards, tight places, summer camps
and last places. Everything in the
world has its place, but only a small
proportion of the things in the world
stay in their places. The world itself
is only a place and a rather crowded
place, at that.

Plumbers,


Whenever you invite the plumbers
in to spend the week and fix the
kitchen faucet you should plan
ahead. Have everything in readi-
ness.
Plumbers are often a little hurt to
see that there have been no prepara-
tions. Plumbers take these things
very keenly.
If a pipe is leaking and you are
going to have the plumbers come,
move everything out Of the kitchen
so they will have room for their
tools. With good weather and no
mishaps they may get all Of their
tools around the first day.
Getting all the tools, around, Is a
good days work for two plumbers
and a boy. On the second day they
examine the leak and make notes
and then get busy planning the
weeks work on it. II the leak is a
plain hole then the thing is simple
and they finish it up in smart shape
within the week.
1t is best to send the children to
the country when the plumbers
come. Put a lid over the goldfish
bowl. II you haven't spare room
or a stable you might arrange to
have them board with the neighbors.

had asked that the grand jury ascer-
tain if the Springfield Traction COM

erty during the strike. He cited the
