farmers of your district must impress
upon him that they expect him to

do not believe he will fail you, but you

that you are interested and expect
him to serve you and the farmers of
North Dakota. We believe Mr.. Blank
will appreciate your interest and CO.
operation in backing him up with
your moral support and words of con-
fidence.
I'VE therefore ask that you COM
municate, at once with all farmers in
your neighborhood by phone or per-
sonal request and ask them to write
Mr.. Blank, addressing him at Bis
marck, care of the state senate.
I'VE are enclosing form letter as

bring to the attention of Mr.. Blank.
Have the letters written in the farm

language. We know these letters will
give Mr.. Blank greater confidence in
carrying on your fight.

office, and several drafts of tentative
bills have been prepared. The tax
commissions bill, which meets with
the approval or the secretary of state,
the state engineer and automobile
| road posters generally, would
levy an average license fee of
20 the year on each of
North Dakota's 10000 motor cars.
This would produce a fund of $780,
600. which it is planned to devote to
the use of state highway commits
sion, which Governor Farzier advo-
Gated In his inaugural address.
The license fee is now So fiat, re-

there was returned to the counties
portlonment was greatest, received
$7,OSO; Grand Forks county $5,207 and
Ward county $3.50. No other county
| received as much as $1,000, and in a
great majority of cases little actual
good road work was accomplished
through the medium of this fund.
| The tax commission has argued
that an average license fee of SIS per
annum will not be a burden upon any
one who can afford to own car; that
car owners are more interested than
any one, else in good roads, and that
with the knowledge the fund to be ac-
cumulated from this assessment is to
be devoted to the building Of state
wide system of real trunk-line high
ways, there will be no objection from
the men who foot the bill
Out of this fund of $350,O00 would
come the $4,000 which would be re-
quired this year to match North Da-
kota's first apportionment of federal
post roads aid, under the provisions
Of the Shackleford measure. North
Dakota would therefore have a total
of $436,000 to spend on good roads in
1917, and that amount would build

dam highway. as q starter.

The issue wasn't forced.
AS a result, woman suffrage must
go before the house of representatives
without the official backing of the
: league.
A further complication in the sit
uation arises through the proposal of
the Nonpartisan league to set aside
the present constitution Of the state
and adopt a new one.
The amendment passed by the state
senate this week relates to the old
constitution; the women who are here
seeking it's passage by the house are
uncertain as to the effect If the
leagues new constitution should be-
come the state constitution.
That woman suffrage will pass the
house only over the united opposition
Of the so-called resubmission vote,
and that the opposition is not inclined
to let the measure pass without giving
as good battle as possible, is clearly
evident now.
The women, however. who are on
the ground. are confident they will get
favorable action in the house, but the

In order to secure the laws wanted
by the farmers, it becomes necessary
to secure the support of your senator
and other hold-overs from other dis

IF you do not secure the support
of your senator, Mr.. Blank, it may
mean that the work of two years will

to prevent this by getting all the

A Thirty .tbres Var Job.

The founder of synthetic philoso-
ply" so called as being an attempt at
fusing all the sciences into a whole,
was Herbert Spencer. 1t was In 1859,
when he was about forty, that Spencer
projected his scheme Of philosophy,
based on the principle Of evolution In
its relation to life, mind, society and
morals. He proposed scheme requir-
ing him to complete eleven volumes In
twenty years, but he was thirty-three
years at work OH it, and then 1t had
greatly exceeded the original scope. To
the accomplishment Of his self imposed
and gigantic task he devoted all OF his
time, strength and mental powers,
steadfastly refusing honors and titles.
Delicate from infancy, he yet lived to
pass his eighty-third milestone.-Chi-

BAT More Corn.

Ordinarily the quantity Of corn pro-
duced in the United States is from three
to four times the quantity of wheat, but
only q very small portion of the crop
from s to 10 per cent-has been used Tor
human food. This amount may be esti-
mated in normal times at about zoo, 200,
600 bushels year. Not over B per cent
has been exported in peace times. A
relatively slight increase In the corn
acreage, therefore, will place many mil.
lions Of bushels more OF human food at
the disposal of the world without inter.
fering in any way with the feed needed
for the support Of live stock.
In the past, With an abundance OF grain
Of other kinds, corn has not been In
great demand for human consumption.
But with other grains no longer abun-
dsnt. circumstances will compel more
general recognition of the value OF corn
ss human food. It is the best substitute
for wheat that we have and can be utii.
lied in breads, mushes, and variety OF
other ways. We should make every
effort to avail ourselves Of It.

"the age Of electricity" yet the amount
Of gas consumed is still increasing.
There has indeed been falling or In
the amount used for lighting, but a
great gain in the amount used for fuel
This Is not only the age Of electricity,
but also the age Of the gas burning
