The Dickinson Press figures it out
that if one slice of bread is wasted in
every home in America, every day, it
would mean the wasting of the wheat
from 100000 acres.

DO YOU KNOW
Information on Timely Topics
Compiled BY The Forum.

Do you know just what a United
States bond is? Let the Official Bull
Ietin, Uncle Sans own newspaper,
tell you:
The government Of the United States
HAS two methods of raising money. One
is by taxation. The other by the sale
of bonds, which is a method of Dor
rowing money.
The government bond is the printed
promise of the government to pay back
the borrowed sum of money at a GER
tain time, and to pay interest on it at
regular intervals until 1t is repaid.
The government borrows money in
this way only after it has been given
the right to do so by act Of congress
approved by the president, and the
terms of the loan are set out in the
act.
Back Of the promise OF the govern
ments stands the honor Of the govern
ment and all it's taxing resources.
Really the whole wealth Of the nation
stands behind this solemn promise OF
the government to pay.
This makes the United States gov

There is no valid reason why every
dollar in the state school fund that is
available for investment, should not
be placed in Liberty bonds.

There can be no question of the
right of the state to so invest its funds.
The constitution specifically provides
that they may be invested in United
states bonds.
There can be no question Of the
safety of the investment. It is the
safest investment in America, and IL
the bonds are not good. the school
houses themselves are not good.
There can be no question Of the

The Hettinger County Herald editor
sat down and tore this off:
THE farmer always prays for rain
to help along his growing grain. The
fans were always known to pray for
sunshine every playing day. But all
the rooters will allow that things are
slightly different now. When rain is
needed for the soil to help the farmers
at their toll and help 'em get a bum

shop. For If the worse comes to the
worst, we all agree that crops come
first. So Rain, oh Rain no matter when
you come to moisten field and glen,
we will not care one whit at all how
much you stop 'em playing ball."
And the next day it rained. About

bonds, but they are tax free not only
from all existing taxes but from any
war tax that may subsequently be
levied. No state, city, nor coun-
ty may tax them. The inher-

or rather, affect their transfer after
death of the owner by will or by in

States government is not safe, no
property in the United States is safe,
If the United States can not pay its
bonds, 1t is hardly probable that it will

other rights.
The liberty loan bonds of 1917 are
especially attractive investments. Not

For the favor he founH in the eyes If Annie LeGrand, a negress described as a flashy dressing "nigh brown" Willie Lewis. negro, paid with his life Lewis was shot and killed Thursday night by Harrison Quarles, alias Sonny" Quarles, who went to dance on the Berry place. opposite Noble Lake from the Veil Brothers com. pany's store, and found Annie sitting in Lewis lap.
 United a few days ago, Annie, ac- cording to the testimony adduced at the inquest conduted yesterday by Coroner H. E. Williams. M. D., had been 'sweet" on "Sonny'' In jeal- ous rage. Quarles slapped the woman's < face, then left the place. returning a few minutes later with a shotgun. He pushed the barrel of the weapon against Lewis left breast and pulled the trigger. The charge tore a great hole in the negro's body.
 While negroes screamed and rushed to get out of the building Quarles disappeared. He is said to have boarded an Iron Mountain train at Moscow. He is described as being a mulatto about 22 years of age. , feet 5 inches tall, has grey eyes, be- lieved to be partly French, and speaks with peculiar drawl.
 James Brown, who admitted at the coroner's inquest that ;,e had walked back to the dance with Quarles and had advised him to "kill the woman, but leave Willie alone" was brought to the county jail by Deputy Sheriffs J. l.. 'McBurnett and fiery Williams, the coroner's jury recommending the negro be held to await action of the grand jury. According to Brown, the LeGrand woman is held responsible by the negroes. not only for the kill ing of Lewis. but for the shooting af- fray at Noble Lake several months ago, when one woman was killed and several men wounded.
