WHEATON WINS
EXCITING RACE
Defeats w. [. Comstock for the
Democratic Nomination
for Governor
RECEIVES LARGE VOTE
}. A. A. Burnquist Eliminates C. A.
Lindbergh for Republican Nomina-
ton by About $4,000 Majority
Senator Nelson Wins to 1.

Minneapolis, June 21-Ihterest
shifted from the victory of Governor
Burnquist over c: A. Lindbergh to the
close race between Fred e. Wheaton
of Minneapolis and Judge Willard L.
Comstock of Mankato.
On the face of returns, it seemed
almost certain that Wheaton would
be the nominee to oppose Governor
Burnquist next fall. Comstock's early
lead of more than 5000 had been ov-
ercome by Wheaton. The latter's
gains were small but steady. The
vote stands: Wheaton, 14,483; Com
stock, 14,194.
Another Hot Race.
One other meek and neck" race
is attracting attention. In the Sew.
enth congressional district, the con,
test between Congressman Andrew
]. Volstead and DR.. Henrik Ship
stead Of Gle1wood, Non partisan
league candidate, is very close. Vol.
stead was reported as having very
slight lead. The Seventh district
was strong league territory.
Governor Burnquist got a big vote
in the strictly rural precincts, des-
pite predictions by League leaders to
the contrary. The. Governor main.
tanned his lead of nearly $4,000 votes
over Charles A. Lindbergh, TownIey's
candidate for governor. The vote
was: Burnqufst, 1S4, 1877; Lindbergh,
135,154.
Senator Nelson's victory over JAS
A. Peterson, is three TO one Senator
Nelson received 1S6,527 and Peterson
69,495.
The vote in the Republican prt
maries has surprised every one. The
total vote will run nearly 100000.
Two years ago the total vote in the
Republican primaries was approx
mately $4,000.
The small vote in the Democratic
primaries shows where the big in
crease came from. Democrats went
into the Republican primaries to help
check the political prairie fire"
which was sweeping down from
North Dakota.
SdSWSt way L0SS.
It was by no, means certain that
Irving A. Caswell, clerk of the SUI
preme court, would be renominated,
although he slightly increased his
lead. The vote stands: Caswell, S4..
4S9; Magnuson. 61,954; Mueller, IT,
572.
Clifford L. Hilton, attorney general
maintained his lead over Thomas v.
Sullivan, Nonpartisan league candi-
date. For a time Sullivan pushed
Hilton very close and friends of the
present attorney general expressed
grave concern.
Thomas Frankson, lieutenant gov.
ernor, continued to increase his lead.
On account of the three cornered
fight, Frankson has been in jeopardy.
The vote was: Frankson, 97,157;
Crane, 1884; Stephens, 51,41s.
Julius Schmahl, secretary of state,
got vote of 150.073, while his OPP
ponent, Carl g. Malmberg Of Forest
Lake polled 70,547.
j. A. o. Preus, state auditor, had
almost the same size vote as that of
Schmahl. Preus had 150,022 as
against Tjosvold's 86,375.
F. W. Putnam, railroad and ware
house commissioner, received 126,186
votes and Tillquist, his opponent, got
93,363.
Henry Rines, state treasurer, had
1878 votes and his opponent, Easel,
had 9O.144.

Ways With Vegetables.


Ways With Vegetables.
We tire of certain vegetables be
cause they are served so often in the
same way, until we grow to dislike
them. Variety is the spice of life,'
and every housewife should endeavor
to put little of this spice into every.
thing she does. The individual is
unfortunate who has been spoiled by
monotonous diet, for enjoying all
kinds of foods, especially vegetables,
which are so valuable to keep the body
in good health.
Simple Cabbage Salad.
Shred small cabbage, add small
amount of celery and a bit of chopped
onion and pour over the cabbage the
following dressing hot: Beat two egg
yolks, add two tablespoonfuls of wa
ter, a tablespoonful Of butter melted,
dash of salt and cayenne, and a
quarter of cupful of vinegar. Cook
this over hot water and pour over
the cabbage, stirring 1t over the heat
until well heated, then serve hot.
SHioHS StuIIeO WIFI htCe.
ParbOfl sufficient quantity of on
ions of even size, remove the centers
and chop fine; mix the chopped onions
with cooked, seasoned rice, season with
butter and salt with q few dashes of
cayenne, stuff the onions and bake,
basting with good stock or butter and
water. Serve as a garnish around a
platter of chops. Any sweet butter
substitute may be used in place of
butter, In cooking. Sausage, leftover
meats of various kinds, bread crumbs
and nut meats, as well as cheese, all
make good filling for stuffed onions.
Cabbage cooked with an onion fine
ly chopped and served with a white
sauce, is good dish to add to ways
of serving vegetables.
Onions and cabbage have the largest
share of abuse given to the ordinary
vegetables, as there are some who fail
to digest them. while others object to
their strong flavor. They are both
rich in mineral salts, and acids, give
bulk to food, as the roughage is neces-
sary to aid in digestion, and are all
round desirable foods to serve, worthy
of more attention.
Stuffed Cabbage.
Remove the heart of a small cab
bage head, drop into boiling water and
cook until tender. Cut in to the GEN.
ter in triangular pieces and pour over
the well-drained vegetable a white
sauce made rich with cupful or more
of finely chopped rich cheese.

of tillage to increase the average prod
uct. Thus far. however, in spite of
agitation and instruction, such results
as have been gained must be attrib-
uted more to favorable seasons than
to intensified cultivation. What a
wizard of horticulture has achieved in
the wonderful climate of California
may not be repeated by everybody else
under less favorable conditions, but
his discovery is full of promise that
some day the bread of the world is to
be more abundant. The man who wins
that triumph will be entitled to stand
in the front rank Of those who are to
conquer the earth for liberty and de-
mocracy.

Speaking Of food-how much OF
what you eat do you help to produce
by your own work? Farms need labor.
THE difficulty is not an insufficieney
of actual man power. There are plenty
of men to supply the farms with help.
But that man power is applied to
other things and the farms will not be
adequately supplied with help unless
men turn temporarily from their pres
ent business or employment and work
on farms in their county during the

vest, .'-~~----t'N-'-'s
II we were not at war you might feel
free to disregard this as your per-
sonal duty. But we are at war; this

TO disregard it.
1t is the duty of every strong man
of farm experience or of farm apti-
rude, who is not now engaged in work
of war value, and not engaged in work
so which his personal attention is con-
stantly Indispensable, to go to farms

Get in touch with the county agent
of the United States department of
agriculture and the state agricultural
college or write the state agricultural
college if you cannot get in personal

help. Lay off your present job or get
away from your present business for

Tobacco the Only Luxury
Poor Man Has Ever Known

From government records it is
shown that only Is per cent of the
cigars consumed in this country are
ten-cent cigars or betterj and that IS
per cent of American smokers do not
smoke cigars at all, but confine them
selves to the cheaper forms of tobacco
little cigars, pipe tobacco, chewing
tobacco and cigarettes. Verify, those

Purihes Water.

An enterprising company in Califor-
MIA has found that water which is dis
tasteful because of sulphur gas can be
purified by blowing the gas out Of it.
The water is forced to escape from
the reservoir through inch holes into a
long trough. 1t also falls over two
shelves Of laths. The process atomizes
the water and with the help of slight
breeze entirely removes the sulphur
taste.

 The sign of weakness on the part of the Central powers is at least encouraging. It may or may not bring peace but where there is much smoke there must be fire Germany knows she is being licked and will continue to face complete defeat, which is inevitable anything human can be. Peace will come when Germany is really ready to agree to the peace of the Allies not when she suggests peace with strings tied to it.

What Man Has Done

On Saturday there into Phoenix two great trucks 25 long, riding upon gigantic pneu- matic tires the largest ever made. These tires fabricated of rubber and long staple cotton grown in the Salt River Valley. These first from Boston to San Francisco, then to Los Angeles and thence to Phoenix via Ash Fork. Only twice were tires changed in this long journey, and it the Salt River Valley cotton which made this wonderful result possible.
 Those carried, besides relays of drivers, 10 tons of government arpane goods consigned from Boston to San Francisco. They made that trip in P days. In Phoenix they went to the cotton planta- tion of great tire company, where they carried to the gin seed cotton. This cotton to be gnned and the finished product is to be carted by these same trucks to Ohio where it will be woven into tires.
 It is but few years ago that trip of 25 miles a day in the horseess carriage deemed won- derfu accomplishment, and yet is now con- petng with his older transportation brother of steam and rivaling the railroads in fact the two trucks which came here have been for nearly year running regularly from Akron to Mas sachusetts and back again, no matter what the weather They have made the trip even when trains rails stalled.
 It should be matter of local pride that the cot ton developed here has had big part in this truly remarkable accomplishment.

But One Answer.

The German chancellor's peace ad- dress to the reichstag is an exceedingly adroit attempt to strengthen the rapid lyweakeningmorale of the German peo- pie. to gain the backing of the discon- tented masses by the promise of real constitutional government and "gen- aral. equal and secret franchise" and to make friends at the peace table of the powerful labor group in the allied coun- tries.
 There can be but one answer. When Germany voluntarily withdraws from the allied territory she has devastated, and agrees mqualifiedly to consider peace based exactly and without eva sion on the fourteen principles laid down by President Wilson-then and then only can the allies consider an armistice. Until that date force, and more force, must be the answer of America.

What a Nation Has Learned

Banded together in unity of purpose this country has shown what it accomplish. This lesson will not be lost, it is to be hoped
 Cooperation and ordination are words often used carelessy. When they are used with care and lived up to they turning the wheels of all in- dustry as they have never turned before.
 What nation do in war it can also do in peace The methods which produce results at one time certain to succeed at another. Vast stores which have been created at a rate never before equaed in the history of the world point to the pos abilities of quantity production quantity pro- duction and better goods of standardized type at lowest possible cost
 All of these things which America has fairly learned in the past few months. Failures have been comparatively few considering the magnitude of un- dertakings and now the question is, will the nation profit by the things it has learned in that period Pulling and hauling commercial strife and bickernss costly costly in proportion those most closely engaged than to anyone else. With good will there is place for every legitimate effort in this great land of opportunity and with nation to be tested in the future in world commerce as never be- fore it is imperative that this frst great lesson of unity of purpose should not be lost.
