How Trees Keep Air Pure.

The volume of carhOnic acid ex-
hailed by Il human being in the course
of "a hours is about 100 gallons, but Il
single yard of leaf surface, counting
both the upper and under sides of the
leaves, can, in favorable circum-
stances, deCompOSc at least gallon OF
carhonic acid day. One hundred
square yards of leaf surface, then,
would suffice to keep the air pure for
one man, but the leaves of a tree OF
moderate size present surface OF
many hundred square yards.

Train Load of Soya Bean Oil

A special train of thirty tank
cars carrying 5000 gallons of
Japanese Soya Bean Oil each, or
a total cargo of 100000 gallons,
valued at $165, 900 has been dis
patched from Seattle via the
Union Pacific System to Cincin-
natl to be used by Proctor &
Gamble as essential oils in the
manufacture of soap
The use of Soya Bean Oil in the
United States is of comparative
ly recent origin. A small guam
tity was imported in 1909 for the
first time. Since then the in
dustry has grown to a valuation
of about $1,000, 900 annually, but
never before in such quantities as
to require a special train of spec
tally built tanks for transporta-
ton.
The oil is used in replacing
beef and pork fats and other
forms of animal greases which
have become to expensive for
such purposes. The industry
has grown to such an extent that
firms for such purposes. The
industry has grown to such an
extent that firms in the east
using it have found it necessary
to station their representatives in
Seattle to handle it. These firms
include extensive paint manu-
facturers who have found in this
oil a valuable substitute for
linseed oil in the mixing of paints
and varnishes, and the extent to
which it is being handled has
justified the Union Pacific in the
construction of special tank Cal 8
for that purpose.

.MINOT And VICINITY

D. B. Welty, Of Sawyer, transacted
business in the city Saturday.
During Saturdays hail storm, crops
on the H. Benno, Ed Kivley and John
j. Lee farms southwest Of the city
were damaged. Mr.. Lee figures that
his rye crop was damaged about half.
H. j. Melos returned Wednesday
from months visit in the Twin
Cities and points in Minnesota. He
reports poor crops thruout Minnesota.
At Fergus Falls the pastures have
failed and farmers are shipping their
cattle.
Arthur LIE Sueur, former mayor Of
Minot and one Of the most prominent
Socialists in North Dakota, arrived
Wednesday to attend the conference of
IL. w. w. leaders and Nonpartisan
league delegates to settle the matter
relative to labor on North Dakota
farms for this season.
George Newport and son Lyman, of
Minot, are here visiting H. Pfunndhler
and family. Mr.. Newport was in this
region six years ago, camped near
Crane creek and recalls when he rode
buffalo bare back. If Henry was
not so we'll noted for his truthfulness,
Mr.. Newport could not realize that

Keep the surface soil loose and fine
Hoe shallow the roots are near the
surface. Hoe after each rain and at
least once a week. Be sure to wait
until the soil is dry enough before
hoeing-this prevents Jumps. Frequent
hoeing kills the weeds before they get
above ground.

in this vicinity. John and Fred De-
silets of Deering are brothers Of Mrs.
Weaver. Mr.. Weaver was formerly
located at Granville and for the past
three years he has been engaged in
the real estate and law business at
Glasgow, doing well. Glasgow, a
city Of about 1000 people, subscribed
about $150,000 to the Liberty Loan,
or about SIS per capita. One wealthy
old rancher subscribed $4,000.
Geo. Reishus, the implement dealer,
has been looking the country over
pretty carefully and informs the indie
pendent that there will be more crop
in this vicinity than was anticipated.
The rye crop in localities is fair and
some Of the early sown wheat has
dried out, but the later sown is filling
and if farmers will use headers, they
can get much of it.
Mr.. and Mrs. Otis J. Marks Of Doug

Massaging the Scalp
Makes Hair Beautiful

Massage conscientiously applied ev-
cry day is responsible for many a beau
tiful head of hair, says the Farm and
Fireside. This keeps the scalp loose
and gives the roots a chance to breathe.
Place the hands at the back of the
head with the thumbs just below the
crown and the fingers among the hair
on the forehead. Move the fingers
around in a little circle slowly and
with a firm pressure for from ten to
twenty times; then move the hands
lower down and repeat the process.
Do this every night. 1t will only take
three minutes or so, and the hair will
soon bear witness to the success Of
your efforts.
The brush and comb you use are of
immense Importance in keeping your
hair in condition. The brush should be
Of the best quality possible. A comb
should be chosen with rounded points
and not too small teeth, so that all
scratching is avoided
Never jerk the hair or pull it in
combing. If tangled begin at the ends,
holding the hair firmly above, and
work upward until all is clear. Jerking
and pulling may destroy and will GER
tainly hurt the little ball Of tissue at
the root of the hair, from which it
derives its nourishment.
The hair should be brushed every
night with long, steady strokes for five
or ten minutes, brushing from every
angle. Take just enough Of the tresses
to be handled comfortably at time
and do not stop until the whole head
has been gone over.

Spots on the Ceiling.

More often than not, the ceiling will
have black spots over the radiators
and gasjess, while the other parts will
still be clean. Try this method of
cleaning the oiled spots: With a very
soft cloth remove all the loose dirt,
wiping always in one direction. Then
dip soft, dry cloth into some dry cal
Gimme powder of the same shade as
the ceiling, finish and rub gently
away from the wall and toward the
center and renewing the powder dress

Home Cookery
About Whipping Cream.

Richness, age ana cold are essential
in whipping cream. BY richness Is
meant so to 40 per cent cream; by age.
at least twenty-four hours old-better
thirty-six cold does not have to be eX-
planned, but it is important If cream
refuses to whip" and gets frOthy, two
drops of lemon juice added will relieve
the difficulty. 1t makes the fat more
viscous, which gives it the power to
become distended with air. 1t has the
same effect as the Tactic acid which
develops in cream upon standing.
very little lemon juice is sufficient, two
or three drops to a cupful of cream or
half teaspoonful to quart. This
slight amount will not flavor the cream
nor tend to sour it. There will be no
more trouble with frothiness and
whipped cream will soon result.

S. F. Schelley Of Watford City was an
interesting spectator to an operation

The most interesting part was the
fact that it was performed for the re-

took no anaesthetic.
The child was born with six fingers
on each hand and six toes on each
