WOOD Should ANSWER.

In view Of the showing made b,
Leonard Wood in the Dakota repub.
lican primary, color is added to the
charge of Senator Borah "that large
financial interests are backing the
General for the republican nomina-
ton A few weeks ago the Wood
forces swooped down upon the State.
A strong political organization de-
veloped overnight and Wood in a few
weeks carried the State. Did money
do it?
The whole county rejoiced in the
conviction Of Newberry, the Senator
from Michigan, whose slush fund was
numbered to defeat Henry Ford, Mil
lions We're spent and the will of the
people was defeated. In the face of
this brazen attempt Of money to fas.
ten its representative on Congress to
defeat the wishes of the people and
to protect privilege and wealth, the
effort of wealth to usurp the execu-
ton as well as the legislative branch
cs of our government should be rep
udiatod at the polls. Wood cannot
ignore this charge. 1t is too serious to
remain unanswered. If money is put
ting over his, or any other nomina-
ton it must be known. If he is not
repudiated by his own party the whole
people should smite him when the
time comes.
Gen. Wood should reply to Borahs
charge. His record has been too
clean and honorable TO rest under
such an accusation.

LEGISLATIVE NOTES



The State educational institution
program for the enlargement and inn.
provement Of the University. the A
and N. College and the State Col.
lege for Women, has been finally
cleared Of all obstructive measures
The Williams bin, independent of the
Zellar-Sheldon measure, for the re.
moval Of the University to Jackson,
went the way Of its predecessors the
past week when it was overwhelmint-
~ defeated in the lower house. Only
80 votes favored it and the matter oe
removing the University has been
settled, we hope, for all time to come.
Now comes the consideration Of the
bond bill, estimated at FIVE million
dollars for needed improvements at
these institutions. The expansion pro.
gram is quite an ambitious one and
as 1t is to serve posterity, it is bu.
right that posterity should share in
its payment. Not only is the question
of removal be settled in the
enactment Of this law, but the future
educational policy Of the state will be
settled, for with three or four million
dollars invested in the present edu.
rational plants they will be fixtures
for all time to come.

With an estimated 1920 production
of 100000 automobiles, the need for

spent on hard-sulfaced roads during
the year.

Bird club
1Qotes

Nature has given us the birds to
protect all growing things from the
ravages of insects and rodents. In
summer swallows and swifts are fly
ing through the air in pursuit of the
insects which constitute their food.
When darkness comes on and they
retire for the night whippoorwills
and nighthawks take up the chase
and make war on the moths and
other insects which fly at night.
The Aycatchers dart out of seclu-
ded hooks and capture the buzzing
insects at hand and the warblers
fiutter about the foliage and pick
insects from the leaves and blossoms.
The vireos explore the under side
of the leaves and odd hooks and
corners to see that no skulker
escapes. The woodpeckers, nut
thatches and creepers examine care
fully every inch of tree trunk and
limb, searching the bark for insects,
eggs and larvae or boring in the
wood for the ants and borers they
hear inside.
On the ground the hunt goes on
by thrushes, sparrows and other
birds who feed upon the bugs,
worms, buffers, an crickets, grass
hoppers and every kind Of insect
found on or near the ground.
Hawks and owls destroy the
small rodents which are 50 destluc-
tive to crops. 1t is found that ninety
per cent of the food of the so called
chicken hawk consists of Injurious
rodents and insects.
The winter birds devour great
quantities of the seeds of noXious
weeds which if left to terminate
would cause a heavy loss to the
farmers.
The downy woocpecker, the nut
hatch and the chickadee are often
found to gether in winter searching
the bark of trees for their food.
They seem to enjoy each others
society and rough and stormy wea-
Their has no terrors for them. You
can hear the CHEEKY chickadee,
chickadee OF the friendly little
blackcap in the coolest winter
weather.

Carl Johansen, thirteen year old
son OF Mr.. and Mr.. Ludwig johann

10 Clean Vinegar Cruet
When vinegar or oil cruet be-
comes stained, an easy way to clean
the inside is to use egg shells.
Break the shells into small pieces
and put them into the bottle with
soapsuds and shake. The more
shaking the brighter the inside.
The sharp edges of the shells not
only clean but polish the glass.
When wallpaper is soiled try the
experiment of gently rubbing it all
over with a sponge that has oeen
allowed to absorb as much clean
bran as possible. Though the sponge
be perfectly dry, the bran will re-
move the dirty surface, leaving only
grease stains behind. These stains
can be removed by means of blot
tlng-paper and warm iron.

Mix thoroughly and apply to paint
with an old brush. Allow this to
stand, then wash off in three or
four waters.
Busy mothers who have large
lronlngs can economic time by fold
ing ordinary sheets, pillow cases and
towels and running them carefully
through the wringer in place of IRON
ing, when the clothes are dry.
Apractical way to clean kid gloves
is to rub the soiled parts of the
glove with corn-meal, moistened
with gasoline. After that. thev
shouldbe dried thoroughly.
Another method is to dip the
glove in fruit jar partly filed
with gasoline and shaking it up and
down, changing the gasoline until
it is clear.
OF course, the gasoline must be
used in the open.
Small scratches can be removed
from furniture by rubbing the sur
face vigorously with the kernels of
any nut containing large amount
of oil.
