items of expense.
That money was set aside as sacred
each week.
We lived on the balance, and we
adopted practice of putting Ger.
tain sum into the savings account
each month.
As a result, when the coal bills
came in November and December,
there was money on hand to pay them.
When the insurance premiums were
due, the money was there, ready to
pay.
We, often times find the weekly por-
ton remaining for living expenses
runs short, but we have adhered rigid
ly to the proposition Of making each
weeks income take care Of its share
of the expense, with the result that
the plan has worked out to our entire
satisfaction; our bills are paid more
promptly, and we know for just what
purpose we spend money, and we
know, also, when not to spend.

1t is doubtful if the republican can,
didates for the presidential nomination
will make much Of a campaign in the
presidential primaries in March. Hi
ram Johnson of California is apt to
make a number of addresses in the
state and in the event that he can get
the endorsement of the nonpartisan
leage, he is apt to win the fight in
North Dakota. Whether General
Wood will make any bid for the North
Dakota vote is not known at this
time. Governor Lowden of Illinois is
considering the ACCESSIBILITY of making
a fight in North Dakota, but he is
not willing to put forth any efforts
here unless he has a fair chance to
win. The North Dakota presidential
primaries will be the first to be held
in the United States and rather than
suffer defeat, a candidate had better
not enter the state at all, but save his
resources and energy for some state
where he might have better chance.
Lowden may not even make a fight
in Minnesota, in which state he was
born. Hiram johnson is expected to
make a strong showing in that state
as the nonpartisan league is very
strong there and he has a good chance
of getting the endorsement. Wood
and Lowden will be the candidates in
South Dakota, but will make such q
fight that whichever wins, the party
will still present solid front.

In this weeks issue of the Indepen-
dent appears a page advertisement by
E. A. Shirley, we'll known Minot gro
GER, who outlines the local sugar stu
alton in a comprehensive manner,
There has been scarcity of sugar in
Minot and vicinity and no mistake.
Perhaps if the sugar could have been
distributed equally, there would have
been just about enough to go around
if everyone used it economically. A
good many in the vicinity have man
aged to ship in sugar in fairly large
quantities, several families laying in
hundred pound sack each, and Of
course while these people consider
themselves fortunate, they have been
getting sugar at the expense Of others
who perhaps have had to 60 without
entirely at times. Mr.. Shirley has
worked out his own system Of distri-
button. He stepped out into the mar
ket and secured a quantity of sugar.
1t cost him some money and his Gus
toners must realize that Mr.. Shirley
or nc other merchant can afford to
sell sugar or any other merchandise
for less than cost. The Independent
knows Mr.. Shirley well enough to feel
certain that he would not try to take
of anyone and he intends to
treat everyone alike. His advertise
ment makes interesting reading. Look
it up.

third country to ask for the extra
lition Of one who has fed from his
country on account of political rea-
sons. Holland reasons that Mr.. Ho-
henzollern can be given up only In
.he event that Germany asks for him.
The former Kaiser did not fee from
his country on account of political
reasons and Hollands point is not well
5aken. If Holland were right, she
would not permit a man guilty of as
many crimes as the former Kaiser
to remain within her borders. But
perhaps Mr.. Hohenzollern's great
wealth makes him welcome guest in
Holland, which country waxed fat over
the war while the other countries
fought and bled for humanity. The
Allies would be justified in overrun-
ming that greedy country and taking
the prisoner by force.

The Secretary of Agriculture esti-
mates the value Of all crops in the
United States during 1919 at $15,873,
100000, and the value Of all live stock
at $S,830,OOO,0O0. This compares with
a five-year average value, from 1910
to 1914, inclusive, of $685., 00O, 900 for
crops, and of $5,31s, 100000 for live
stock.
The farmer has Jared well in these
days of high prices. He is one of
the men that the cost of living has
hot worried much. While there are
many things he has to buy, they are
unbalanced greatly by the things he
has to sell. He we'll can afford to pay
more for his clothes and his machin-
cry if he can get more for his farm
produce.
Few people will begrudge the farm
err his prosperity. In our own North
west, as elsewhere, he has been the

North Dakota attorneys for years
advocated law providing for court
of Cancellation in each county of the
state where minor cases may be set
tied without the bother and expense of
going into county or district court. In
states where these courts are in OPP
Grafton, the Judge is always ready to
consider these minor disputes which
should never be permitted to be car
ried to the higher courts. Litigants
are not put to the expense of hiring
attorneys and their disputes are set
tied Immediately. The higher courts
are clogged with large number of
small cases, some of which drag along
for years and when finally tried, often
cost the county several times the am
cunt involved. Courts of Cancellation
might mean less revenue to some at
torneys, but they would save the tax
payers of the state vast sum Of mon
ey in year. The Independent sees
no good argument against these courts
and on the other hand, there is much
to be said in favor of them. The fact
that the North Dakota attorneys ia
vor this law should not create preju-
dice against the measure among the
legislators

There is something wrong with the
wholesale price of woolens that are
used for mems clothing. Manufactur-
ers of the cloth claim that the extra
ordinary price of clothing is due to
the high cost of wool that goes into
the manufacture of the woolens. 1t
requires about 81 ounces of wool to
make the cloth for an ordinary sized
suit of clothes of medium weight.
Even at the present high price of WOO,
the 62 ounces are worth only $5.75.
Such an all wool, tailor made suit will
cost the wearer 500 and upwards.
There's too much of spread between
clipping the wool and getting it ready
for mans back.

Perhaps the buying public is large
~ to blame for the high prices. Mich
ael Bowling, noted Minnesota lecturer,
told of an instance in point during
his address in Minot, last night. A
Minneapolis merchant bought four
dresses which he marked 70 sell close
ly, for $4,000. Women passed them
by and he could not understand why
they overlooked the extraordinary
bargains. One of his saleswomen
followed woman from the store and
saw her go into another store and buy
dress identically like his $45 gar
ments for $S5. The merchant got an
idea. He marked one of the $45
dresses at $135.O0 which was soon
purchased by a mechanics wife, who
paid SIS down and $40 month.

A Rugby mercantile concern In 1918
spent $4OO for advertising and did
$175,OOO worth of business. In 1919
that company spent $4,000 for adver-
Using and increased its business by
$4,000. This company is so well
pleased with the results Of its adver-
Using that it has set aside $4,000 for
advertising purposes to be spent dur
ing the year 1920. The merchant who
does not do some good consistent ad-
vertising, keeping everiast;ngly at it,
is passing up a fine opportunity to IN
crease his business. Don't think for
minute that the money you spend
for advertising is strewn to the four
winds.

ling of our finances.
Up to three years ago, we went
about financing our home in a hap
hazard manner. We spent money
while we had it; we had to scrape
pretty hard, sometimes, when an un-
usual payment was due.
Then we figured that there should
be a more satisfactory way Of handl-
ing our money, so we figured out how
much we needed for coal, how much
for insurance, how much for rent, and
how much for one or two other fixed
