Fire OF unknown origin broke out
Thursday on the farm of A. T. Mar
shall, near Absaraka, about 40 miles
west of Fargo, resulting in the de-
struction of grain, stock and build
ings. A barn and granary valued
at $4,000 were destroyed. 10000 bush
els Of barley with a value Of $4,000.
were burned and ten horses and a
cow, valued at $4,000 were burned to
death. The loss Is in part covered
by insurance.
The fire broke out shortly after
noon and was discovered by Mrs.
George Bordleau, whose husband
works the farm on shares for A. T..
Marshall, whose residence Is at 1919
Fifth avenue south, Fargo. Mrs.
Bordleau was alone on the farm at
the time and after discovering the
fire she led eight horses from the
barn before the smoke became too
thick for further work. The fire ap-
peared to originate in the granary
and spread rapidly.
The office Of the states attorney
Of Cass county Is cooperating with
the sherlffs' forces today in an effort
TO discover the origin OF the fire.

sued from the city headquarters at

The committee has used every eff
fort to give every resident an OPP
portunity to prove his Willingness to
support our government, but there
are few still hanging back. It ia
hard to believe that we have anyone
enjoying the privilege of Lying in
the United States who is not willing
to do his share but we hope that
when we close the campaign tomor-
row night we can proudly say
Thank God, the city Of Fargo is
100 per cent Americans. It is
squarely up to you, Mr.. Loyal Clti-
zen. We have kept the headquar-
tiers open three days longer than we
were supposed to, but we did not
want to give anyone a chance to
say he did not have an opportunity
" 5hD0GLADSs we AdFo dOlG our
share. Have you done yours? Give
this serious thought. We appreciate
the spirit of the Fargo people. Your
patriotism has made the campaign
not only a success but a pleasure to
the workers. Our allotment was
high and we have not yet reached
the desired goal. but we feel salts
fled that before the sun goes down
tomorrow night we will be able to-
say we are over the top"
The county workers are still in
the field, no reports being received
this afternoon. the report remaining
the same as that issued yesterday
that 26 districts Of the county have
sold bonds to the amount Of their
allotment. The workers express ev-
cry confidence that the entire sum

fore the close of the campaign.

pressure allowed the corn market TO
recover somewhat today from recent
severe declines. Liquidation by hold

disposed to take profits rather than TO
incur new risks. Commission houses
were only moderately active and their
business was we'll divided. Opening
prices. which ranged from the same

with November $1,29A to $3.50 and
December S1.26% TO S1.27, were fol-
lowed by gains all around and then BY
fair reaction.
Oats developed strength with corn.
After opening unchanged to 5c high

ket scored a slight further upturn,
Pork continued to fall the maximum
daily limit. Lard and ribs, however,

to stop the spread, Of Spanish in

Surgeon General Blue OF the public
health service.
There is no way to put a nation
wide closing order into effect" said
DIR. Blue today, "as this is matter
which Is up to the individual com
muuities. In some states the state
board Of health has this power, but
in many others it is matter of
municipal regulation. I hope that
those having the proper authority
win close all public meeting places IL
their community is threatened with
the epidemic. This will do much to-
wards checking the spread Of the
