in any other districts I have made this

them as to crops shake their heads
and say they r very poor. Closely
cornered up, however, they admit that
they are, t%hreshing all the way from
twenty to thirty bushels to the acre

usual crop of the northland, and

an expectation Of forty to fifty bush

OVERHEAD IS !
$1,000 MONTHLY
Kositzky Estimates That the
Drake Mill Must Go Some
To Pull Even.

Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 25.-The
North Dakota -four mill at Drake, de-
clares State Auditor Kositzky, is
launched with the heaviest relative
overhead expense that ever has bur-
dened an infant industry in the north
west. MIR. Kositzky estimates this
overhead to aggregate nearly $4,000
per month. He includes in his esti-
mate the following items: Salary Of
James A. McGovern as manager OF
state mill and elevator association,
$416.60 per month; salary of secre-
tary to Mr.. McGovern, $20s.33 per
month; salary of stenographer to sec
rotary of manager, 500 per month;
travelling expenses Of manager.
$14l;25 per month; salary Of oliver
industrial commission, $500 per
month; salary of Mr.. Morris stem
ographer, 800 per month; total for
salaries ofN"higher ups" SUGGEST
per month.
Must Have Big Output.
In addition, says Mr.. Kositzky, the
mill must pay the small wages of four
or flee men who actually do the mill
ing work: must pay for fuel and light,
insurance and other incidentals of up
keep, and must pay at least five pei
cent interest on a $4,000 bond issue
which the mill and elevatbr associa
ton purposes to plaster onto the prop
erty, for which it is actually paying
$4,000. The mill has a daily capacit!
OF $50 barrels. Mr.. Kositzky figures
that it must grind each day 211 sack
of -four at the rate of Sc per hundred
to pay its overhead, before anything i
applied to profit. On top of thes'
statistics comes the announcement
that the mill has promised the farm
ers a premium of SO cents per bushe
on the comparatively small amount o
wheat which this industry can as
initiate.

This, however, is a huge delusion
It is true that capital made great sac
rifices during the war. It is equally
true the Capital has made unpreced-
ented profits in the same period,
which altogether Offset the great risks
taken. Under these circumstances
capital is undertaking a dangerous
move when it, considers it expedient
to use the profits" of war in order
to better enjoy the promised "treas-
ure" of peace and thus let the poor
fellow who has made the greater sac
rifce face unemployment and starva-
ton on his return to civil life!
Now a word to the mothers and
wives of Vermont who have loved
ones in any one of Uncle Sans var
ious hospitals. Do not worry There
never was a civilian hospital more
compact, efficient and sanitary than
the military hopitals of Uncle Sam.
Some soldiers complain. They should
not. their treatment is of the best,
[ know, for I have received this
treatment for the last two days here
in Camp Meade. Some weeks ago it
was my pleasure to translate an ar
ticle from a French paper praising
the efficiency of Uncle Sans hospital
units; the methodical handling of
cases, the clean, health healing of
their surgery-and proudest note of
all-the extreme youth of the ply
sicians and surgeons! 1t is not gray
hairs that make a surgeon it is in
tellect and brains. In the middle ages
the great physicians and surgeons,
Mondino, Morgagin and their sue
cessors were famous before their 30th
year. It almost surprises one to see
the number of young physicians un-
der 80 in the hospital service of the
U. S. A. And Vermont has worthy
representative of her intellect and her
youth in Lieut.. Tierney of St. Johns

mourn her loss.
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is still;
A place is vacant in our home.
That never can be filled.
She suffered sorely for while,
Then death it's treasure claimed,
And bore her to a better land
There ever free from pain
A loving mother she has left,
A father, kind and true;
Her friends will sadly miss her
Brothers and sisters too.
And dear mourning friends believ
me,
Though it looks so dark today,
You will see Gods purpose palmer,
When the mists have cleared away.
