H SCAB NOT
FEARED IN STATE

Fargo, n. D., July 15.-wheat scab,
found in numerous wheat fields in this
district. is not general enough to be
termed a n to the state wheat
crop. says II. L. Bolley, state pure
seed commissioner. The scab, says
Prof. Bolley, is indicative of run down
land, and ean that a system Of bet
ter farming must be adopted to pre-
vent continued depletion of the soils

grain products.

When Lawyers Strike.

Lawyers, as well as policemen, have
been known to strike. Some years ago
the barristers practising in Sierra
Leone were so dissatisfied with the
Judge who was acting as substitute for
the chief justice while the latter was
on leave that they unanimously elected
to give up pleading before him. Legal
business In the colony was, therefore,
at standstill until the chief justice
returned. France, too, affords an In
stance of a legal strike. One of the
judges at st. Armand accused the local
lawyers of deliberately promoting dis
putes in order to fill their pockets with
fees. ThereupOn all the lawyers in
court departed In a body, declaring
that they would not return until this
insulting statement had been with
drawn. Eventually the Judge apollo
gized. and the lawyers resumed prac-
tice.

Ohio.
DAYTON, OHIO, July Fl, 1919.

Prospects for the growing crop have
been very discouraging up to this
time The acreage is cut about so per
cent from last year and what did get
into the fields was held back by the
dry, hot weather. However, today we
have had slow, drenching rain over
practically the entire valley, and look
for the crop to make great Roadway
during the next week or ten days.
Interest in the 1913 crop still contin-
ues very active, with the buyers all
hard at it. The thinner end is getting
pretty we'll cleaned up, while big hole
has been made in the Gebhardt. Vari-
Gus reports indicate that this end of
the crop is fully so per cent bought up.
There has been very active buying of
the low grades, apparently for export.

over 1000 cases of resweat Gebhardt
was sold to large manufacturer.
History repeats itself, and | predict
that we will again experience the ris-
ing market of 1916. People have
thought all along that we had such a
big surplus of old filler tobaccos, but

two large concerns got into the market
to cover their requirements, they took
about all that was left. The few small
packings still remaining here will find
ready market at good prices. Packers
are now turning down offers which
they would have jumped at a few
months ago. Buyers are beginning to
appreciate the fact that they missed
their golden opportunity to get in on
the slump, and are meeting the pres
ent condition with spirit somewhat of
remorse. But it is the same old story
-watchful waiting but waiting too
long. Those buyers who have covered
their wants got good tobacco at prices
not much higher than the 1918 crop
must bring, if the packers are to make
any money. Now what is left will
command prices high enough, not alone
to let the packers out, but in some in
stances to actually net them profit.

AT THE LYRIC

There is a certain freshness of
novelty to the theme of "More Trou-
ble," the Pathe photoplay in which
Frank keenan, is starring at the Ly-
ric Thursday (tonightl, which makes
it amusing every foot of the way,
and reveals keenan, in a humorous
role quite different from the serious
character parts with which he has
been identified in the past. The plot
revolves about a college boy of
seemingly exemplary habits, who's
return horne from schoo g follow
ed by a deluge of bills indicating
anything but quite career away
from home. Frank keenan, has
scored the triumph of his long AID
distinguished career in this picture.
Madge Kennedy will make her .ap-
pearance in one of her best comedy
dramas, "Friend Husband" on Sat-
urday. This picture is a scream from
start to finish.
Humor, with tears that tread up
on smiles is the keynote Of Daddy

famous story by Jean Webster in
which Mary Pickford will be seen on
Sunday and Monday. In this, the
first production to be made by her
very own company. Miss Picford
as "Judy Abbott" easily has the
best role of her career. The fun be-
gins when Mary and her little freck-
le-faced companion lead the Orphans

of hard cider and some sandwiches
which they consume, whereupon they
both get gay, and get into all sorts
of mischief. Their dog also drinks
some of the cider, and gives a first
rate imitation of tippler trying to
make his way home after too lib
al inhibition. The picture was di-
rected by Marshall Nielan, who is
foremost in the new generation of
directors and has already won the
name of the "Mark Twain" of the
screen. This is a big special pro-
duction and nothing that Miss Pick
ford has made in the past can even
be remotely compared to it.

SET THEIR MINDS AT EASE
Cases Are Numerous Where Wrong
doors, After Many Years, Make
Restitution to Show Regret.

The sting of conscience is not al
ways dulled by the lapse of time.
There is no more bitter penalty than
to spend ones life with an accusing
conscience, no more unpleasant mem
DRY than of q wrong done. That is
particularly true where it Is in the
power Of the individual to repair the
wrong, to show by restitution that re-
greet is real.
Conscience money is frequently re-
ceived by individuals and corporations
There may be times when payments
come from individuals who are mental
" afflicted, but in many cases where
payments could be traced back they
were made to ease an accusing con-
science, to right a wrong Of years ago.
There are other individuals who do
not use mystery, but VINO come out In
the open and pay debts hong since out

are stories Of these belated payments
frequently printed, the last one coming
from North Dakota, where man paid
a debt nearly thirty years old. He not
only paid the debt, but he paid interest

as man ought to do.-Ohio State

Reporter. I shall have personal charge
of it as publisher and editor. In this
respect my relations with the paper
will be the same as those of the former
owner, the late F. w. Coon.
The character of the paper as a jour

bacco industry in Wisconsin, and as
medium of general news and public
opinion, will remain the same as be-
fore. The expert knowledge of all
matters relating to tobacco possessed
by Mr.. Coon has passed with him, and
there is no one with quite the same
knowledge and experience in this field

The Reporter serve the best interests
of the Wisconsin tobacco industry, the
grower and buyer alike; by giving rell-
able and conservative information about
the culture and marketing of tobacco,
and about other phases of this industry
as a whole.
AS a general newspaper it has no
special hobby to ride, neither has it
any monopoly on wisdom. 1t will en-
deavor to learn and tell the truth, and
furnish to the public wholesome news
and other reading matter.
In this present period of so much un-
rest in the world, and unsettled opin-
ions among men, The Reporter will fol-
low the policy of watching it's steps,;
it will adhere to the axiom that sanity
is a great asset in stabilizing human
society and in browning effort with
success.

If LABOR is better paid today than
ever before, and we cannot doubt it, it
is passing strange that we are passing
through an era of strikes and labor dis
turbances unparalleled in our history.
A scientific analysis of wages and their
correlation with costs of living might
prove that labor has just contentious.
What we want now and what we should
have is the attainment of stability-a
point where prices shall be stabilized
and upon which figures wage may be
established. AS it is now we no sooner
readjust wage dispute than there is a
new situation caused by further adj
vances in prices of living, which gives
the laborer less chance of saving.

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKETS
Continued From Page I.

In Suffield, CT, the largest tobacco
town in point of area under cultivation,
not crop has been sold in the fields so
far as known. Contrary to the usual
custom, buyers have made no overtures
to growers and few inquiries relative
to the growing crop. Newspaper re-
ports from Suffield record tobacco there
which has grown three to four inches
in height over night. There is evident
ly an uncultivated field in Sufield for
an oculist who specializes in astigma-
tism. ,..

By ADDING a new section to the stat
utes relating to the public health, the
present legislature has made it the duty
of the board of supervisors of every
county, within two years after July l,
1919, to employ upon the certification
of the state board of health one or
more public health registered nurses,
or public health instructors. This re-
quirement of the statutes will furnish
an incentive for persons who desire to
ing and will undoubtedly be the means
of inducing many to take up the pro-
fession. The duty of health instructor
or nurse will be to act as health super
visor for all schools not already having
school inspection either by physician
or school nurse; to assist the superin-
tendent of the poor; to instruct tuber-
culosis patients and others in prevent
ing spread of tuberculosis; to assist in
reporting existing cases of tuberculosis
and other communicable diseases; to
assist in investigating cases of delin
quency. neglect and dependency of jul
veniles, including state aid to depend
ent children, in counties not employing
a probation officer; to assist in investi-
eating cases of non-school attendance
in districts where a school attendance
officer is not employed; to assist in in
vestigating cases of infringement on
child labor laws; to investigate cases
of crippled children due to infantile
paralysis or other causes; to act as
health instructor throughout the county
and to perform such other duties as
may be assigned to her.

Good Players.

The boys had been playing ball all
the morning on the vacant lot next
door. Often there were many argu-
ments but always they were settled
and the game progressed. At noon
mother reproached Tom for his part
in them. "What would you think If
mother would quarrel with her friends
as you do?" she asked.
"But you can't, cause you women
aren't good players" Tom explained
carefully. "When you get mad over
something you just resign. A good
player quarrels it out and then goes
back to the game like we fellows did
this morning.
And the mother had no answer.

date on which the 20 cent minimum
wage for women workers became eff
fective. The commission also refused
to make any exemptions. Employers
from all over the state appeared before

claimed the order would put them out

PLANS are now being made by the
Senate committee on the District of
Columbia to conduct an investigation,
through a subcommittee, of the high
cost of living in the District of Column
bia. Senator Ball of Delaware is chair
man of the sub committee. Although
the investigation relates primarily to
the high cost of living in Washington,
it is expected to take on so broad a
scope that it will shed light on condi-
tions throughout the country. More
over, such facts as are learned with
respect to conditions in Washington
will undoubtedly apply to large ex-
Congress feel that no little good can
be accomplished by bringing out the
facts with respect to the causes which
are leading to the high cost of living
of which the whole country is COM
important legislation will be the out
come of this inquiry and perhaps others
to be made by this Congress. The
next question. however, is to bring
about thorough and impartial enforce
ment of any legislation which may be
enacted calculated to relieve the pub
lie. AS matter of fact, for many
months officials have possessed powers
which were ample to reach to many
forms of profteering at the expense of
the public, but they have not lifted a
finger to accomplish anything. This
being the case, good many members
of Congress feel that publicity through
investigation is for the present about
the only hope for the burdened con-
sumner so far as federal action is con-
cerned.

TOO MUCH MONEY

!" This is a good time to pay debts
because debts can now be PAID Win
dollars that are worth only about ~
cents. Did you ever look at it this
way? It's a fact and the wise man
is availing himself of the opportunity.
Likewise, this is not good time TO
go deeply into debt because you Will
| be borrowing dollars that are worth
only about so or so cents and il your
debt runs long eniugh you Will nave
to pay it with dollars that cost you
| 100 cents. Our country is In the
!, throes of currency imitation. Ihere IS
too much money IN the country Inc
war has brought billions to US from
other countries so that the value Oh
dollar has gone down-that is,
dollar will not purchase as much as
] it would purchase two and three
years ago. We say that prices are
high. Values have of course lncreas-
| ed some but the main reason why It
takes S35 today to buy a suit OF
clothes that could have been bought
for $50 in 1916 is that the dollar we
offer in payment is really worth only
about so cents. This is largely the
reason prices if all commodities are
so much higher than they were
short time ago and it is true wheth-
err the commodities are wheat, beef,
pork. butter, shoes, binders or barb
wire. Al reaction will set in or course.
The nation viii adjust itself to the
new wealth that has come TO It and
currency values will again approach
normal. Hence the truth OF our
statement that now is the time TO
nav debts. For instance, the $1,000
you borrowed five years ago brought
for you 81 900 worth of property. To-
day you can pay the 81 900 with dol
lars that come so easily and are so
plentiful that il repaid BY you now

will buy for the man who holds your
debt only about half or two-thirds
what they bought when he turned the
dollars over to you. Debtors are able
these days to repay debts at about
60 cents on the original dollars. Re-
versing the situation, this is not a
good time to go deeply into debt be-
cause if you borrow now you will get
dollar that will. for instance, buy
less than half a bushel of wheat,
while if your debt runs long enough,
say five or six years, you will in all
likelihood have to market an entire
bushel to get each dollar that you re-
pay. From another standpoint this
is good time to invest your savings
in safe securities. For instance,
Liberty bond or war savings stamp
or a bank certificate of dpeosit or
the note of your neighbor that calls
for the payment of certain number
of dollars at some distant time are
much better investment in reality
than they profess to be because each
promises to pay you certain number
of dollars and to pay them at time
when dollar will be worth much
more to you than the dollar you give
to them now is worth. because the
dollar you get back vii lbuy consid-

cradle more than the dollar yiu now
have. This item is not written for
the purpose of discouraging business
because business will go on as US
ual, but to call attention to a fact
in finance which if given reasonable
attention will help the man who
needs the advice. By all means try
to pay your debts now. With money
plentiful and prosperity general, the
tendency is for men to be carried
away by the ease with which invest
ments, purchases and loans can be
made and to neglect to use savings
to pay up old debts. Newspaper and
magazine reports are to the effect
that the country never witnessed
such wild ogre of speculation as
characterizes many localities. The
wise man is capitalizing the present
prosperity by getting out of debt
not by getting into debt. Long
