KEEPi Z THE cow.

/ The cow is an income producer. She
brings in her harvest continually. Az
times it may seem hard to scrape up
enough feed, but it can usually be
done. In addition to the milk and the
calf the COW returns most of the plant
food in her manure. This means that
the COW will help keep up the land,
thus making more productive through
manuring. The pasture continually
becomes more fertile and growing such
crops as alfalfa, grasses; and corn puts
the land insbetter shape for growing
crops. Even if the cow does not make
much profit she makes the acres that
support her more productive, which
usually means more profit.-Ext. Div.

Amsterdam, Aug. 81. Professional
soldiers like Generals Won Blume and
Won Liebert, unlike so many other Ger

the significance Of the appearance Of
American army on the western front.
General Won Blume, who is on the
retired list, writes an article on the
subject which appears in the Rheni-
sche Westfaelische e Zeitung of Essen.
He frankly admits that I'VE have not
recognized that the Americans all in

|D0YLE FOR GOVERNOR
- '" ''lFIiISY Of NORTH DAKOTA

Kota, regardless of politics, ar certain
they can elect Mr.. Doyle, is demon-
strated by the earnestness and en-
thusiasm with which the opponents Of
Townleyism have begun the campaign.
Joint headquarters have been estab-
lished in Fargo by the Democrats and
Independent Republicans. "A harmony
program has been arranged and all are
wholehartedly united in their deter
mination to put Mr.. Doyle over.
The Doyle supporters are not fright
ened at the task before them. They
realize the state is, at present, under
the complete domination 81 Townley,
and that he has entire control Of the
Republican political machinery, the
state patronage, an unlimited supply
of campaign funds, a trained corps Of
speakers and numerous unscrupulous
workers with a record of not hesitat-
ing at anything which they imagine
may help their cause.
The anti -Townley forces readily ad-
nit the great handicaps they face,
but they are inspired with a determine
alton to overcome all obstacles, to
drive out the socialistic, Goddess mis-
fits which have throttled the state, re-
tarded its development for the past
two years and which loom as large -
a still greater menace to North Dako-

In an effort to rid the state of the
political incubus with which it finds
itself encumbered tn real Republicans
of North Dakota, have united with the
Democrats to defeat Frazier, the
Townley league candidate for COVER
nor.
The Democrats nominated S. j.
Doyle, United States Marshal and a
man of unquestioned loyalty and devo-
ton to his country. Mr.. Doyle has
been a resident of North Dakota for
almost a third of a century and for
years personally conducted and still
owns farm in Foster County. As a
member of the legislature and the
acknowledged floor leader of the DEM
ocratic minority he has a wide knowl-
edge of the needs Of theestate.
The fact that he has been United
States marshal for four years and was
reappointed this spring for another
term by President Wilson indicates the
esteem in which he is held at the
White House.

Netherlander who has just returned
from Gronau, Germany, where he went
to attend the funeral Of q friend, a
captain in the German army, says that
in all West Germany great depression
reigns among the people because Of
the recent Allied victories in France.
Before the Allies commenced their
counter attacks flags were flying fro n
public buildings, but the people scarce
glanced at them, declaring that, they
did not care about such victories. but
that they wanted peace. Even brother
officers of the captain, who had fallen
in France, but whose body, as spec
ial recognition Of his bravery, had been
removed for burial at Gronau, where
he used TO- live, did not scruple to tell
Netherlander that they were sick and
tired of war, and did not care who won
if only there might be peace, and ad-
tded: That is the sentiment Of the

GO\ 9 NENT, SAYS JUDGE.

New p Aug. 25.-The Cunard
Steamshi. : oany cannot be held
liable for h IS of life and property
in the tori ; of the Lusitania by
German submarine, according to a
decision handed down in the admiral
ty branch of the United States district
court by Judge Julius M. Mayer and
made public today.
"The cause of the sinking of the
Lusitania was the illegal act Of the
imperial German government, acting
through it's instrument, the submarine
commander" declared Judge Mayer,
who held that "the fault therefore,
must be laid upon those who are re-
sponsible for the sinking Of the vessel
in the legal as we'll as moral sense"
In dismissing suits against the Cum
ard line 'aggregating $4,000,000, brot
by the heirs of persons who perished
with the Lusitania on May Z, 1915,
Judge Mayer asserted that ut is not
to be doubted that the United States
of America and her allies will we'll re-
member the rights of those affected by
the sinking Of the Lusitania, and when
the time shall come will see to it that
reparation shall be made for one Of
the most indefensible acts of modern
times"
Judge Mayer went exhaustively in
to claims that the Cunard line was
negligent, and dismissed them with the
conclusion that the captain and men,
bers of the crew took every precaution
justified by the then known facts, both
before and after the vessel was tor
pedoed. .
"It is, of course, easy now," he de-
clared, "In the light of many later ev.
ents added to proceeding acts, to look
back and say that the Cunard line and
it's captains should have known that
the German government would author.
ize or permit So shocking a breach o1
international law and so foul an Of
tense not only against an enemy, but
as well against peaceful citizens of the
then friendly nation"
Judge Mayer declared that proof
brought out in his investigation which
covered a year, is conclusive that the
Lusitania was not and never had beer
armed and that on the voyage or
which she was sunk did not carry ex.
plosives.

Of one hundred at the rate of 31a and 2-3
cents apiece, pint and quart size and so are
not expensive. With this equipment the
pressure Gamer can be used with the maximum
of efficiency and safety.
The Rubber Rings
With the can question off our minds only
one other fundamental point remains to be
settled. What rubbers shall you use and how
can you know good one from bad one be-
fore the product spoils?
Do not use the rings that come on the
.ars in any case. Use fresh new rings each
year. Remember that rubber rings that might
serve for preserves or food put up by the
old open kettle method will not do for the
cold pack method, in which the ring goes into
the sterilizer with the product and must stand
up under at least three hours of hard boiling.
These are some of the points that a good
ring must have, as decreed by the Department
of Agriculture after much experimentation
and observation:
of the rubber ring should be two and one-quar-
ter inches. 1t must fit the neck of the lar
tightly, stretching a little to go around it.
2. You will have fewer "blowouts" if the
ring is about fve-sixteenths of an inch wide
one-fourth inch to three eighths Of an inch are
the limits.
8. One-twelfth of an inch thick is just right.
T. A good ring will stretch considerably and
return to the same inside diameter; it should
also stand bending. without breakage. Color
is no index of quality.

Somewhat better adapted to the average

quarts or four pints, to one that can process
eight quart jars at once. The small cooker
weighs only eight and one-half pounds and is
positively ornamental. 1t is not bulky, meas
uring eight to ten inches in diameter, with
height Of ten inches. 1t is most economical of
heat; it is said to be ''fool proof as far as

PREPAREDNESS FOR THE CANNING CAMPAIGN

The Lightning wide-mouthed type has a
glass cover with wire clamp, is easily cleaned
and sterilized and lends itself perfectly to
the half seal and subsequent complete sealing
called for by the cold pack method. 1t may be
mad in round or square shapes, the square jar
representing saving in shelf and packing

misunderstanding room for one additional

The Economy Jar has cap coated with

completely sealed, and is considered by some
to be especially safe, as it can be accurately
and finally tested for perfect sealing when
the process is complete, whereas defects in the
rubber rings might develop later, though
responding to the test when taken from the
Gamer.
The tin can is cheaper and more convenient
for some products than glass, but has always

top must be soldered on. The Burpee Sealer
