The North Dakota Potato Growers
exchange shipped 104 cars Of potatoes
from the local exchanges in the first
thtee and a half months Of its ex-
.lstence. and bids fair' to- double the
number by the. end Of the season, In
the opinion Of the officers Of the ex--
change. There were 512 local .ex-
Changes in the state, while several
more are expected to join. by another

The North Dakota potatoes are sold
through the Minnesota Potato Grow

early stages. Minnesota alone. had
shipped K,750 carss in Its first three

Will duplicate the record Of the Mlchi-

GERMS MAKE US THINK
 OUR BRIGHT THOUGHTS

LONDON. Dec 10. - According to | Dr. s. T. Irwin. a prominent Irish sur geon, genius is nothing more than the product of a germ that gingers up the gray matter in our brains
 The microbes of various diseases, such as tuberculosis. gastric troubles and appendicitis get into our brain cells. kick up a shindy there and make us think bright thoughts
 It is an intriguing thought that if you are healthy you cannot be clever. and genius is to illness near allied. What a hive of microbes Shake speare must have had! and Charlie Chaplin must be full of complaints Look at his poor feet-all caused by the genius riotng round in his cerc- bellum.
 The more one looks at the doctors idea the more there seems to be in it. Fore example who are the strongest and healthiest men in the world2 Dempsey, Carpenter IIackcnschmidt and the Terrible Turk
