THE LAND OF NOD.
BY CHAS. J. COTTON.

Oh, don't you love the Land of Nod
my baby,
Where all the little children go at
night,
TO wander meath the eyes of God, my
baby,
IN those pleasant realms of ever-new
delight?
Where the gentle angels play with
thee, my baby,
And show thee many a soft and beau
teous sight,
Until they give thee back to me, my
baby,
When the morning glow has put the
shades to flight?
I wonder just what joys are there, my
baby,
That make you smile so often in your
sleep!
Are the ones who welcome you so fair,
my baby?
And the pleasures that you drink in,
are they deep!
And tell me, through the happy day.
my baby,
When those azure orbs are lit with
childish glee,
In the midst of all your romp and
play, my baby,
Does a longing for the nighttime come
to thee?
DO you wish tho glowing sun would
sink, my baby,
So the horses of the twilight, lightly
shod,
Could come for thee when eyelids
blink, my baby,
To bring thee once to the Land OF
Nod?

BRADSTREETS WEEKLY REVIEW
OF INDUSTRIAL AND COM
IMPROVEMENT.

New York, April 14-Trade and
industry do not reflect any very
marked changes from recent reports,
but there are enough signs of inn
provement in basic conditions to rob
the general showing of some of its
hitherto rather depressing atmos-
phere, according to this weeks re-
view of trade by Bradstreets.
Cool weather, bad roads, cautious,
even timid, buying and reduced pur-
chasing power in industrial and agri-
cultural regions, the latter the result
Of lessened earnings and low prices,
keep trade distribution down TO the
barely fair point.
Crop reports are favorable. Dam

Dakota. and starting in North Da-
kota. Indications point to a reduced
acreage
Corn planting is progressing in
the southern and southwestern states,

Texas.
Traffic on the western railroads in
March was Is TO 80 per cent below
that of last year Merchandise lead

FASTENED DEATH
REPORTS SHOW SEEDING OPER-
ATOMS WE'LL UNDER WAY
THROUGHOUT STATE.

Grand Forks, n. D., April IA
Seeding operations in North Dakota
were reported well under way
throughout the state today, when a
survey of conditions in general way
was made through the offices of the
county agents and the extension di-
vision of the North Dakota agricul-
tural college In the extreme north
eastern tier of counties, seeding cam
not be started for a week or 10 days
as the result of the heavy snowfall
last week. which left the fields too
Wet for work
The acreage to be placed under cul-
tivatlon will approximate five per
cent under 1920. while the area to De
devoted to wheat will be about IS
per cent less than last year.
In the northern part of the state
the acreage will be reduced but
slightly and reports from the south
western district indicate that from
25 to 40 per cent less will be culti-
waited than in 1920. In that section
the land is reported too dry, but in
Golden Valley county and other dis
tricts in the extreme western section.
where crop failures have been preva-
lent the last five years, conditions
have never been better. Reports from
Beach in Golden Valley, also estimat-
ed the acreage at approximately the
same as in 1920.
County agents of northern North
Dakota. in conference here with agri-
cultural and livestock experts from
the state agricultural college, declar-
ed that the financial stringency in the
rural communities is responsible for
the reduced acreage. Many farmers
are attempting TO do their spring
seeding without outside assistance
and, as a result, have been forced to
reduce the area put under cultivation.
Wages throughout the state, rec
commended by the Farm Bureau fed
Grafton, have been fixed at $50 and
$40 a month. The supply of mar
ried men, seeking labor for them
selves and wives, has been too pfenti-
full. No district has reported short
age of labor. The influx of laboring
men from the lumber camps of north
ern Minnesota the last 10 days has
placed the supply far above the de-
mand.

NORTH DAKOTA
CROP CONDITIONS
LAST WORDS OF THE LATE FOR
MER GERMAN EMPRESS.

Berlin, April 14.-"I cannot bear
to leave you all alone. What will
become Of you?"
These were the last trembling
words of the former German empress
Augusta Victoria. A moment la
ter her heart missed and, while for
mer Kaiser Wilhelm watched, a ply
sician gave her an injection in the
arm in an attempt to revive her. but
the late German kaiserin did not re-
cover consciousness again. This is a
description of the death scene, ac-
cording to a royal personage who ar
rived in Berlin this morning from
Doorn.
The former kaiser spent a great
part of the days and nights at the
bedside of his wife and he himself
administered the medicines prescrib-
ed for her. The former kaiser and
kaiserin held each others hands for
hours at a time, and the kaiserin
died clasping him. When Wilhelm
realized that the end had come he inn
mediately burst out crying, in which
he was joined by his son, Prince
Adalbert.
1t is declared that homesickness
was and additional cause OF the kai-
serins death. The last few days she
is reported to have said:
why must I never see my home
again?"
+ More frequently she told her hus.
band that the reason she did not give
up and die sooner was because she
could not bear to think of leaving
him alone This thought obsessec
her.

CUMM|NS To BARE
RAILROAD SITUATION
INTRODUCES RESOLUTION FOR
PROBE-CONSOLIDATION OF
SYSTEMS.

Washington, April 14-Senator AL
bert Cummins, of Iowa, by introduc-
ing Tuesday his resolution calling for
a thorough investigation of the rail
road crisis, hopes to lay all facts in
the situation before the country, and
to determine if possible, the causes
that are threatening the breakdown
of transportation.
He says charges of mismanage-
ment an dinefficiency will be inyesti-
gated, together with charges of la
Dor inefficiency.
I'VE want all the facts" said Sem
ator Cummins, mo matter who is
hit. The expenses both for mainten-
ance and operation are too high. Civ
ing all weight possible to the dimin-
ished traffic, it will not account for
the negligible net income of the
roads.
1T is costing the railroads too
much to earn the money which they
are earning. This may be due to mis-
management or to inefficiency or to
unreasonable compensation TO those
that operate the roads from presi-
dent down"
Senator Cummins still declines to
believe government ownership is in
prospect But he can conceive a sit
uation where the government might
be forced to step in, if present TEN
denotes are not checked. He declared
his belief that government operation
had proved failure and was to be
summed
He said he believed economies
could be affected which could save
5000, 100000 or s700, 600, 900 yearly
mentioning the possible saving oI
$500, 900, 900 in the labor bill, $780,
100000 in the coal and SIS, 900, 200
in the bill for ties. Senator Cummins
explained he was not in favor oi
wholesale wage cuts, but said he be.
lieved the saving could be made
through readjustments wi h u
greatly disturbing basic prices.
Coupled with this he hopes bust
ness revival, increasing traffic, viii
swell the roads income, and that the
SooI VI Indiciid idiS duu SuppiItS VIII
come down.
He said he would endeavor tt
bring about consolidation of ths
roads into possibly Is great system!
and that meantime regional consoli
dation as favored by Cummins is be
ing prepared by the Interstate Com
merce Commission.
