Townley's Grain Grading
Bill Crops Out
NO WEIGHTS, GRADES NOR
INSPECTION FOR RO\ERS

North Dakota's new grain grading
act, which becomes effective week
from next Monday, eXempts, authorl'
ties claim, the one evil which farm
ers and grain men alike have protest
ed against-the track buyer. me
statute provides that it shall be I'M
lawful for ANY person operating a
public warehouse to purchase, weigh,
grade or inspect grain or seed who
is not license as deputy inspector;
provided, that any person without a
license may buy any article that has
been graded, weighed and inspected
by deputy state inspector OF grades,
weights and measures but it does
not place a single restriction on the
track buyer, the free lance without
local elevator, warehouse or other OBJ
legation, who drifts in, buys at any
price which he can induce the farmer
to accept, and drifts out again, per-
haps never to return
Provisions Ambiguous.
Where a state deputy is established
It is made his duty to accurately sam
pie and grade carload shipments des-
tined for some central market either
within or without the state, and to
make and attach a signed inspection
certificate to sealed package con-
tanning the sample and forward the
same to a. deputy in charge Of said
central market. Eut it is not made
the duty of the track buyer to- sub
init to such inspections, nor in, prob
ably any town in North Dakota DUR
ing the present year will there in any
probability be a deputy state inspect
or to make the inspection. State dep
uties are appointed only when a town
supplies at it's own expense a public
scales and scales house, Reports to
the railway commission 10 not indi-
cate that any town to date has taken
such steps, and Dr. E. f. Ladd presi-
dent of the agricultural commission
and state inspector Of grades, weights
and measures, himself stated at the
recent meeting of the railway com.
mission that he did not anticipate the
appointment of many state deputies
this season. 20.
This will mean that. while the
state has hold on the. line, indie
pendent and farm elevators, which
are already under bond the track
buyer remains the same carefree dev
IL he always has been, making his
own Inspections grades and prices
without let or hindrance. The advan-
tage under the new grain. grading bill
Is claimed by grain men to be all on
the side of the track buyer, stu
alton which is. as little relished by
the farmer as by the elevator man.

Ferdig related the early plot for the
killing of Mrs. Dunn, which, he said
was outlined to him by Dunn in Mon

Dunn to,,beleve that he would carry
out the plan for the purpose of obtain
ing money from him. but declared he
never had any intention of killing the
woman.

Dunn. as related by Ferdig was al

MORE THAN HALF LEAGUE

A. G.. Townley, president OF the

German that which his experience on
the Slope convinced him dare not
be stated in English. The first OF
Townley's purely pro-German meet
ings, addressed by German speakers,
was held at Glencoe, Mimi, on Thurs
day. In speaking of the session the
St. Paul Pioneer Press says:
when Ernest Meitzen, Nonparti-
san league organizer, mounted the
platform at the Glencoe meeting yes
terday afternoon and began to adj
dress the gathering in the German
tongue, the eyes of many of the large
audience turned somewhat sympatht-
ically to Miss Lola Henlon, stenogra-
pher in the offices of Charles Marsh,
member of the state safety commits
sion. She proved equal to the occa-
sion, however, and transcribed the en-
tire speech in German
More Than Half German.
More than half of the new series
Of league meetings which ToWnley
has scheduled for North Dakota, be-
ginning next Monday, will be ad-
dressed in German.
1t is proposed that steps similar to
those taken by the safety commits
sion in Minnesota be adopted NY
North Dakota, and that an expert
stenographer be appointed to attend
each Townley meeting and take down
every word that is said in both Eng
lish and German. Loyal German cit
liens look askance upon Townley's
adoption Of their mother tongue for
the spreading of his doctrine Of hate.
They feel that it puts their people
who are loyal to America in false
position.
Conservative, patriotic Germans
are counseling their fellow-country'
men to express their disapproval by
absenting themselves from the Town
ley meetings and to do nothing which
may cast shadow upon their loyalty
or indicate that they are lined up
with Townley and his socialstic crew
against the government in this great
crisis. H., f.

Send Old Magazines 10 The Front

An appeal for magazines and other reading matter came to this country by cable last week from The American soldiers fighting in France Theretare many thousands of Americans tower thefe7 and 1t will take many thous ands of magazines to keep them sup. liied with the kind of reading they were accustomed to at home, so many in fact that isolated gifts of magazines will not go around, The federal gov efnment provided a way Of getting plenty of magazines to the soldiers when It passed the law allowing them to be mailed for one cent apiece, but for some reason or other the American public has not yet taken full advan lage of the plan.
 The Connecticut State Council of Defense has issued Ii bulletin urging the people of this State to do all in their power to meet thls need of the has magazine that he has finished reading k asked to put n one cent stamp on it, take Il to the nearest post office and let Uncle sam send II To the trenches Ii the magazine k not quite finished, send II any way some soldier witt finish II and he will get more pleasure out of IL than the sender could.

Watch Your Habits.

Habit is cruel tasklnaSter. Most mon who have Il daily routine of eIn- ployment fall into certain ways of daily life that In time become more exactlng than any simon Legree that ever lived. Even work becomes il hab- 1t as the years pass, and the less va rtety there Is to the labor the greater influence 1t will have in forming q hablt. The case of John Agnew, who after 64 years in the service of the city of Chicago was pensioned and died recently because he WAS deprived of his daily toll. Is Il striking instance of the effect of habit. "ldleness Is killing me" was his complaint. At his age 1t was almost impossible for him to learn To do anything but that to which he had been accustomed for much longer period than the average man lives. and he simply rusted away until death ended his fretting. Fortu- nate is the man who can vary hls daily tasks so that they will not fix a hold on him that, as he grows older, fl will be impossible for him to shake off.-Exehange.

In negation--in complete and univer- sal negation--there is no salvation to be found Deny everything and you win easily pass for man of ability; it's well-known trick. Simple heart cd people are quite reads to conclude that you are worth more than what you deny. And that's q sn an error. In the first place. you caE pick holes in anything; and secondly. even If you are right in what you say. it's worse for you: your intellect directed by simple negation, grows coiorless and withers up. While you gratify your vanity. you are deprived of the true cancellations of thought: dfe-the es- sence of nfe--evades yoar petty and jaundiced criticism, and you end by scolding and becoming ridiculous. oa- ly one who loves has the right to cen sure and find fault.-ohio State Jour- nal.
