lack of transportation facilities. Many mills |
have thousands of tons of steel in their ware
houses which they are unable to move to their
destination. Ultimately the result will be the
laying off of thousands of men.
The shortage not only prevents expe-
ditious movement of foodstuffs and commodities,
but also ties up thousands Of dollars of capital
If the steel mills cannot move their products,
they cannot obtain payment of the orders placed
with them If industries must keep their output
in the warehouses instead of delivering them to
their customers, they are unable to collect the
money tied up in the orders. If farmers and
mine owners cannot move their products, it will
not be long before industrial stagnation will re-
suit.
Transportation plays vital part in the pros
perty of our country, greater than most of us
have believed. The railroads themselves were
deceived by conditions that followed the conclu-
sion of the war. They believed their equipment,
even if not up to standard and unable to meet
wartime demands, would be able easily to cope
with the needs of the period following the war.
They miscalcuated in this respect.
Unless changes are quickly brought about in
the few months remaining of the open season,
intense suffering from lack of food and fuel will
follow this winter. The government is making
desperate effort to rush coal north before navi-
cation closes on the Great Lakes so that the
northwest will have an adequate supply for the
winter. The of cars for this purpose has
interfered somewhat with the supply normally
i allotted to the transportation of wheat.

The Car Shortage

Reports from the grain raising districts of
the state show that the shortage is prevent
ing the marketing of wheat. Greensburg,
Franklin and Rushville, centers of rich agricul-
tural districts, report that elevators are filled
with wheat and that farmers have no facilities
for storing the crop.
This situation was foreseen weeks ago by ag-
ricultural students, who advised farmers to erect
temporary granaries and to perfect arrange
ments for the storing of the wheat crop. Ele-
vator men also issued warnings of the short
age.
The blame for the situation, however, does
not rest with the farmers. The car shortage has
been one of the n1enacing features of the trans
portaton problem for many months. The coal
industry has been wrestling with the question.
One authority says full years supply of In
diana coal could be mined in seven months if the
roads could supply the industry with the requis-
ite number Of cars.
The steel industry also is affected by the

BASEBALL

II you want to study the best book
on human nature ever written, go to
o baseball park and study the people
IN the grandstauds.
There you will see and hear almost
every vent to human emotion.
Out upon the field your hero walks
Immediately the air is rent with the
voices of worship. But let that hero
fail TO live up to all that has been said
Or thought or imagined about him
and Immediately that same crowd as
Vociferously turns upon him.
1t costs to be a hero,
| went to a baseball game the other
day and saw a popular idol hit a home
run. 1t thrilled enough spectators to
fill small city. And | said to myself
that it didn't make much difference
how much salary that chap was paid,
he was worth 1t.
Just so long as $4,000 people in one
city can go to baseball game in one
afternoon, just so long is this republic
of ours going to be a safe place in
which to live-rumors and counter
ing.
Baseball teaches things, too 1t
teaches that man, to reach the top Of
his game, must know how to keep
himself in condition and under control
at all times.
No wonder BASEBALL is popular No
wonder it has lasted so long.
Teach your boy to play baseball.

Good Evening
BY Roy X. MouIton
POLITICS..

once got into politics
When I was quite a lad.
L think l ran for city clerk
My memory is bad
l lived then in a little burg,
My friends, they were a host.
They all knew me and I knew them.
Yes, l knew them-almost.
And every voter in the town
Stepped up and shook my hand
And made an awful lot of fuss
Some of them hired a band.
The other fellow for the job
They knocked both day and night
And up to noon, election day,
He was nowhere in sight.
My friends stood by me TO man.
A fact I'd like to note.
They all stood by me to a man
Till it was time to vote.
But when the final score was told
There were sixteen for me-
They told me l was beaten by
Nine hundred forty-three.
SO since that time I've always walked
Away around the block
When I've observed a heeler who
Is hired to boost or knock
AS to the game of politics,
I would much rather play
Draw poker with the cards all marked
The other fellows way.
The European woman who won the
championship as the homeliest woman
of her sex there is coming to New
York. She certainly will be conspic
uous here.
How quiet it is around here since
that chatterboX, Colonel House, left
for Europe
Harry Lauder allows and admits
that he has a little Scotch in his
constitution. But isn't that uncon-
StitutiOnal now?

known to his friends has been resi-
dent Of Rogers for the past ten years
during which time he has occupied the
position of cashier and vice president
of the First State Bank. He has been
highly successful in hi administration
of the. affairs of the bank and during
that time the institution has grown
from one of the smallest in the county
to one of the largest. Mr.. Grangaard
/ has also been prominent character
in the North Dakota Bankers Associa-
ton, having held several positions IN
the corps Of officers of the organiza-
ton. He is we'll acquainted all over
the district as he has also played a

make capable representative and
will doubtless be the one who repre-
sents this district in the legislature
