RAISES TOMATOES OF
TRULY ENORMOUS SIZE

BY way Of demonstrating his ability
as an agricultuFalist, L. J. Blalock
this morning brought to town a couple
o. baskets of tomatoes grown by him
in his garden at his home in East
Americus. The tomatoes were fine
specimens and aroused the envy Of
many amateur gardeners who chanced

FISHING
FLEET TAKEN OUT
FROM NORTH SEA

YMUIDEN, Netherlands, July For
many a hapless boatload Of submarine
victims in the North Sea the laying up
CT the big Ymuiden and Vlaardingen
fishing fleets is calculated to have vital
consequences. Their chances of saliva
ton, at any rate SO far as very wide
area of that sea is concerned, now vir-
tually has been restricted to the find
ing of lightship, to making land Or
being picked up by the comparatively
rare passing steamship or occasional
Warship squadron. What the absence
of these fishing craft must mean may
be judged from the fact that since the
proclamation of the sharpened subma-
rine war alone more than 200 such
victims have been landed at Ymuiden
by fishing vessels-seamen of all ma
tionalities but mostly belonging to
neutral nations, who had been found
drifting in open boats on the high seas.
The total thus saved since the out
break of war is more than GOO.
Despite the German governments as
surances respecting the safety Of neu-
tral fishing craft in certain prescribed
parts Of the North Sea, a number Of
Dutch trawlers and other fishing boats
have been ruthlessly destroyed and
others taken into German ports, with
the result that the fishermen resolved
to suspend their operations and sent
two deputations to Berlin on the sub
ject. The recent action is really most
harmful to Germanys' own vital inter-
ests in view of the food scarcity pre-
vailing there, seeing that the German
markets are thereby robbed of their
tIainloads of fish from Holland and
thousands of Germans of comparatively
cheap and nourishing food Britain
and Belgium and the home consumer
likewise suffer. Under the latest agree
ment recent case in point is that of
the big Dutch steamer Batjan laden
with grain from New York for the
Netherlands government. This vessel
was subjected to heavy she'll fire by
German submarine in the North Sea.
The Batjan's first officer rowed to the
lu-boat, and according to his report it
took him an hour and a half to con-
vince the German commander that the
Batjan was demonstrably well within
the so-called safe zone" Cases have
occurred of German submarine COM
manders having to alter their charts
after it had been proved to them by
their victims that they had been at
tackled in the channel in which the
German admiralty had guaranteed
freedom from molestation. Britain and
Germany were to share the surplus
catches OF the Ymuiden fishermen.
The cause of all the trouble appears
to be the unreliable bearings of Ger
man commanders, who constantly as
sert that fishing craft and other ves-
sells are in the barred zone, whereas
bearings carefully taken by experience
ed neutral captains show them to be
well within the safe zone. Germany
has just agreed to pay compensation
in one or two cases, and Dutch fisher-
men naturally hope that she will yet
find a way of rescuing them from tiei
submarine menace and thus enable
tnem to resume the exercise Of a CALI
ing that. at the best of times, hazard
Gus enough.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July o.
Senator's from cotton producing states
express confidence that the Souths
chief staple will be eliminated from the
administration food control bill before
it comes up for a final vote, and there
is a strong movement to confne the
measure to control of food, feeds and

tor Gore, chairman of the senate agri-
cultural committee. today received the
following telegram from Fort Worth,
Texas.
Cotton has declined two and one
half cents since it was included in food

fected by this bill, and business

Unless an agreement is reached by
this afternoon for taking a final vote
on the food control bill, Senator Cham
berlain announced yesterday that he
would introduce motion to put into
effect the new cloture rule. The vote
is being delayed by the fight on the
Core amendment to place upon the
president responsibility for determin
ing whether the manufacture of beer

a banker in western city less than 10000

structons that should be kept in that city and
each transaction in which this dollar bill was CON
cerned to be reported to the bank and the original
dollar bill to be returned to the bank at the end Of

people in their home town. 1t had paid butchers,
grocers, dry goods merchants, ware merchants,
the landlord the ice man. the laundry man. the milk
man. the wash woman, and had served dozens Of
other useful purposes. One resident reported that
the bill had passed through his hands onthree differ

@
what single dollar can do when kept at home
i proves beyond the question Of doubt the utter
folly Of taking or sending your money out Of town
to be spent Just think. dear reader, what it means
when single dollar will pay or help to pay 1913
obligations in your home town in single week;
just think what it means fevery dollar that is now
carried out Of the city OF Valley City was kept
right here at home to help in its small way topay
the thousands Of these obligations that now exist.
Think Of the hundreds Of accounts that are now
carried on the books Of the merchants and business
men in all lines that could be wiped out in a
months time.
Surely the town would be more prosperous and
its citizens a happier lot, because WHATEVER .
MAKES FOR PROSPERITY OF A COM
MJlNITY, MAKES FOR THE HAPPINESS
OF IT'S CITIZENS.

Why Society Women
Wash Their Own Hair

They do, not because it is a fad,
but because they wish to obtain the
greatest possible hair beauty and
be sure they are not using anything
harmful. They have found that in
washing the hair it is never wise to
use a makeshift but is always ad-
visable to use a preparation made
for shampooing only. Many of our
friends say they. get the best results
from simple homemade canthrox
mixture. You can use this at cost
of about three cents shampoo by
getting some canthrox from your
druggist, and dissolving a teaspoon
full in cup of hot water. This makes
enough shampoo liquid to apply to all
the hair instead of just the top of
the head, as with most preparations.
Dandruff, excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear in the
rinsing water. Your hair will be so
fluffy that it will look much heavier
than it is. It's lustre and softness
will also delight you.-Adv.
