notoriety. Mohall has had county
seat fights, whiskey runners and var
ious other attractions, but now it
seems that the stork is in control. In
any event, it would appear that the
game old bird had more than her
share of cargo on Wednesday of last
week when she left three fine husky
youngsters at the home of Barber
Herigstad and his good wife. The
trio consists of two girls and boy.
All persons concerned, Mrs. Herig-
stad, the triplets and the barber are
doing finely. We would suggest
your getting shave and learn the

Brinton Flayed League Before Crowd
of 600

More than 600 people paid 35 cents
each to hear Job Wells Brinton, for
mer private secretary to "A. c. Town
ley tell about his relations with the
nonpartisan league boss, at the Grand
theatre in Minot last Friday evening,
and not one of them asked for their
money back. Brinton spoke for
nearly four hours, telling the most
unbelievable things, only to be alb
solutely proved by pictures of the
documents which he later threw on
the screen. + ~ $50
Brinton reviewed the league acti-
vities in the state and told how Fraz-
ier was elected governor the first
time with $1,000 majority. The last
time his majority was only $500 and
then only because of the presidential
election. "The farmers are waking
up, / tell you", he said. Brinton
named many of the prominent men
once connected with the league, who
had deserted it.
The most interesting part of his
speech, perhaps. was when he told
how he personally assisted in taking
see, 900 out of the pockets of the
Ward County farmers for the Con-
sumers United Stores Co. He stated
that he expected portion Of the mon
ey would be used in constructing a
four story ware house, the picture of
the promised building being thrown
on the screen. He criticized Dist
rict Judge Moellring for appointing
a nonpartisan receiver for the stores
and not giving the 10, 900 farmers who
signed the notes for the stores any

The Women's Business.

The man who kicks about the
clothes the women ware when
out should have a care and rest
his nose ere it looks like a snout.
If you'd make this a better land
just mind your own affairs.
Attend to your own business,
and the women will mind theirs.
If knee-high skirts offend your
eye, don't follow them around.
Just pass the low-necked woman
by and look down at the ground.
If some fair Juno likes her shape
and puts it on display, it isn't
up to you to cape and protest in
dismay. Clean-minded men
won't knock the way a woman
cuts her waist. He will see the
dear things every Gay and
compliment their taste. So. il
the styles effect your dome and
shock your pure sweet life, stay
off the streets, my friend, go
home and rubber at your wife. :

Plant Board making WeeviI
VamOOse

Great progress is being made
toward eradicating the Sweet
Potato WeeviI from South Mis-
sissippi according to a recent
report received by the Mississip-
pi State Plant Board from X. L.
Cockerham. who is in charge" of
the work. This pest, which has
damaged as high as $751; of the
potatoes on the farms, is found
in Mississippi only in Harrison,
Hancock, and Jackson counties
and the lower part of Pearl
River County, The eradiction
work began in the fall Of 1917
when the weevil was found on
81 farms in Jackson and Hand
cock counties.
The recent reports show that
when these 81 farms were
inspected in 1920 weevil were
found on only 2 of them, the
other 10 farms being apparently
free. During 1918 weevils were
found on 158 properties and at
the close of the 1920 season only
rs of these farms were still
infested. Even better progress
has, been made in graduating
the weevils from the farms found
infested in 1919, as of the So
newly infested farms found that
year only 6 of them still had
weevils at the close of 1920.
Thus from a total of 2S7 farms
found infested in 1917, 1918, and
1919, the weevil has apparently
been eradicated from 204 of
them and its numbers greatly
rednced on the farms Where II
is still present. Weevils were
found on az new farms in 1920
but the success already attained
in eradicating them causes the
Plant Board to feel confident
that the 1921 report will show
that a large majority of these
farms have been freed from the
destructive pest. Farmers in
the infected counties are urged
to cooperate heartily aud help
get rid Of the weevil as soon as
possible.
