RAPS SOLONS FOR
ACTS UPON FLOOR

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, April l.
just think! Congressman chew gum!
Not only that, but they converse while
speeches are being made on tho most
serious subjects. and some even chew
tobacco, and stlll others read the
newspapers during business hours.
Mrs. Maud Wood Park. OF Boston, for
four years chairman OF the national
committee of the National American
Woman Suffrage association, winch
was largely instrumental In getting the
federal suffrage amendment through
congress, spoke at the citizenship
school which is being held daily by the
Pennsylvania League Of Women Ciu-
gems in Witherspoon hall. Mrs, Park
outlined the clumsy procedure of bust
ness in congress and explained the
methods of nominating committees.
New machinery is badly needed IN
congress" said Mrs. Park. THE new
members are supposed TO be seen and
not heard when they first arrive, and
after a few years they have grown so
stupid that they forget what practices
they believed were wrong or inadequate.
But 1t Is not fair to hold the men
responsible for everything that happens
in congress when the constituents make
no protest against the practices. Every
one who has visited congress knows
that men talk, chew gum or tobacco or
read newspapers while important ques-
tions are being discussed on the floor -
Mrs. j. Willis Martin urged the
women to affiliate themselves with
some political party. Don't try to
keep independent" said Mrs. Martin,
"and think that you will reserve your
vote for the best man. II you do that,
you will he forced to chose the least
worse candidate. Join some party and
start with the primaries in selecting the
candidate that you want to fill public
office"

Cranes Guest Of Honor

An occasion which was happy one
although tinged with note Of sad.
ness was the dinner given Thursday
evening at the Leland hotel In honor
of President A. G. Crane, Of the Ninot
Normal school and Mrs. Crane who
are leaving the city.
The perfectly appointed dinner was
served at o'clock. The large table
was arranged L-shape and the decora.
tions were red geraniums, the Normal
school flower. The Normal school
kcolors are red and green, thus the
color note was brought out.
A program Of toasts followed the
dinner, Everett Davis acting ~ toast
master. Miss Hulda Winstad had for
her topic, 'The Aims and Ideals Of
the Normal School,; Mrs. ]. B. Per
kett, "The Site Then and the Plant
Now; Miss Julia McDonough, ''The
Faculty.; Miss Elsie Cook 1.-THE Model
School,; and v. F. Goddard, "The
Normal and Northwestern North Da-
kota. William F. Clarke, who made
the presentation of token Of remem-
brance-a beautiful silver chop-plate
TO President and Mrs. Crane, chose
his own topic, speaking of the quail
tiles for which we love and admire
our friends. Mr.. Crane responded in
his usual manner.
The singing of several toasts to
President and Mrs. Crane and the
school song, closed the evening.
1t is interesting to note that out of
the original II members of the fac
ulty, there are still seven here. There
were IS present at the dinner.

Potato Growers Exchange, cooper

died $4,000 carloads Of potatoes for
Michigan farmers at cost of $780,

million dollars so that the actual sell

Not only was the cost Of selling low,
but good prices were realized for the

SELL YOUR SURPLUS HORSES

| OCAA 1OON 0ONE AO0 x1O1N0cO
One of the items in overhead ex-
penses on farm is often in carrying
more horses than is necessary to do
the actual work Of the farm. Dur
ing the last year figures have been
compiled byt he farm management de-
partment of the State Extension De-
partment on the cost of keeping horses
on the farm. These figures are an
average taken from IL farmers in
this state and a total of 116 horses
valued at 1928 per head.
Total cost Of feed $105; interest on
investment $40; depreciation $21;
miscellaneous So; total maintenance
$3.50. Labor for care Of horse SAT;
making a gross cost Of $187. A ma
nure credit Of $13 is allowed, making
the cost Of keeping the horse $173.
Many farmers realize that they are
carrying too many horses, but can
find no suitable market thru which
to dispose Of their surplus. Ar
rangements have been made by the
State Extension Department with Mr..
Delaney of Valley City to put on
series of horse sales in the state. The
advantage Of the series being that
there will be enough horses for sale
to attract the buyers from the South
where the class Of horses which will
be consigned are in demand.
There is class Of horses, however,
that will not sell at any sale and the
farmer consigning old geldings can
not expect to get more than the hide
is worth. The smaller class Of mares
will sell and the larger horse, Of
course, is always in demand. AS the
cotton growers Of the south use the
small horse the cotton crop reflect on
the horse market. There is no de-
mand for yearlings and two year Odds.
The terms Of the sale are as follows:
One dollar consignment fee is charg-
ed, payable at the time the horse is
entered. If the horse is sold 50 is
charged for selling fee. The farm
er can sell the horse or not as he
chooses. Farmers who have surplus
horses and wish to consign them to q
sale as described above should notify
the County Agent, N. d. German, at
once. State number Of horses, age,
sex and weight.

Minot Normal Students Say Farewell
to President Crane

The student body of the Minot
Normal held farewell demonstration
to President Crane in the Assembly
room of the Normal school Wednesday
afternoon. President Crane was pre-
sented with handsome travelling bag
as testimonial of the esteem in which
he is held by the students. Robert
Magnusson, one of the students, made
the presentation speech and after re-
counting the affectionate regard of his
fellow students for the man who has
so zealously worked for their inter-
ests and for the interests of the school
during the past nine years, closed
with prediction that North Dakota
was merely loaning Pennsylvania her
n'ost popular educator. That event.
ually when this state had once more
resumed her former prosperity she
would ask his return to the state
where he belongs of right.
President Cranes response touched
the hearts of the students and faculty
deeply and when he finished speaking
there was not "a face in the whole
assembly but bore the marks of tears.
The interest and affection of the seu-
dents for President Crane has always
been the most striking testimonial of
his remarkable hold and influence up
on the young men and women who
come under the influence of his mag
netic personality.

MISS Ida Browning DIES
after LINGERING ILLNESS
One Of City's Most Beautiful Christian
Characters Passes to Reward This
Afternoon After Long Illness.

Miss Ida Browning died at the
home of her brother, Mr.. E. p. Brown
ing in Riverview Terrace this after
noon about 2:S0 o'clock after linger-
ing illness covering period of sew
eral years. Quite a while ago Miss
Browning fell at her brothers home
and has been an invalid since that time
She had been gradually growing worse
and on Saturday it was noticed that
she was in very critical condition.
Those who knew Miss Ida Brown
ing intimately were indeed fortunate
for more noble woman never lived.
She was a consistent Christian and
her Christianity was of practical
sort. She was lifelong member of
the First Baptist church of this city
and until her accident most faithful
attendant. For many years she taught
class of young men in the First Bap-
tist Sunday school and her influence
over the young men of that congrega-
ton was marvellous and lasting.
Besides her brother, she is survived
by several nieces and nephews in
Maysville and Mason county and many
relatives in Central Kentucky. Ar.
rangements for the funeral have no
as yet been made

6. 0. P. SUCCESS
IN THIS STATE
NOW ASSURED
Spirit Of Confidence In Party Prevails
Throughout State-Farmers, Work.
ers and Business Men
For Party.

The Louisville Herald's political ed
itor back from a trip over Kentucky
says:
A survey of the POLITICAL situation in
the Bluegrass, Eastern Kentucky, the
counties of the Big Sandy, and in those
counties bordering on the Ohio River
from Boyd to Campbell and Kenton,
reveals that everywhere a spirit Of
confidence in Republican success in
the fall campaign prevails.
This confidence is based on convic-
ton that Kentucky came to the parting
of the ways politically last fall when
a majority of 10000 was rolled up for
Morrow. but this year, the leaders in
every section visited by The Herald
correspondent declare victory is in the
air, not so much because of the en-
phatic preponderance of Republican
votes in the last campaign, but because
of several contributing factors making
for Republican success this year.
In the Bluegrass section, long the
stronghold of the Democrats, there is
much discomfort among the farmers.
At every meeting of the farmers in
that section, as well as all over Ken
lucky for that matter, organizers have
stressed what they call discrimination
against the farmers. The organizers
have accentuated the fact that while
all commodities consumed by the
! farmer have been steadily mounting in
price since the signing Of the armis-
tice the farmer has been receiving a
steadily diminishing return for his
products. The break in the price Of
cattle and hogs last winter brought
| actual loss to stock raisers in Ken
lucky, and no one seems to be able to
point out any material reduction in the
price of these commodities when pur-
chased by Old Uultimate Consumer.
Ernst will swell the Republican
vote In all this section of Kentucky, "
said Kenton county Republican lead
er to the Herald correspondent. His
candidacy has a particularly strong
appeal to the business interests
throughout the state
Something of this enthusiasm was
reflected by leaders with whom the
Herald correspondent talked in many
different sections in the territory in
cluded in this survey.
The feeling throughout the state is
that the state administration has re-
deemed every promise made to the
voters last fall Republican leaders
are very enthusiastic when discussing
this phase of the situation, and many
of them declare II is bound to have
the effect of retaining the support OF
/ thousands of voters who supported the
party last fall for the first time in re-
cent years.
Perhaps no one act OF Governor
Morrow's has created more genera
satisfaction throughout the state
among all classes of citizens, than his
appointment Of strictly non-partisar
good roads commission, and his firm
stand against permitting the injection
of politics into the administration o
the state highway department.
