PRACTICAL

At the meeting Of grain growers in
Fargo an interesting address was de-
livered by the representative of Cali
fornia fruit growers associations urg-
ing on the grain growers Of the north
west the importance of cooperation
in the marketing of their products.
Mr.. Sapiro speaks with authority on
this subject, for he is moi a mere
theorist, but a man Of wide practical
experience in the subject which he
discusses. That such cooperation
rs he suggests is entirely feasible has
successfully been demonstrated in ac-
tual practice. Long ago the fruit
growers of the west organized them
selves into cooperative associations
for the handling of their own pro-
ducts, and they have found that the
move was exceedingly profitable to
them. AS a rule each association de-
votes itself to handling It's own pc
culiar product, and the methods vary
with the character of the product.
Through the agencies which they have
established the western producers
have been able to distribute their pro-
ducts more advantageously, and to
obtain for them better prices than
would have been possible under any
other system.
Organization similar in principle is
recommended to the grain growers
of this section. The detailed sugges-
tons which are suggested may or may
not be the most workable and useful.
That is a rather minor matter at
present. The important thing is that
there. is recommended to our people
methods similar in character to those
which have been found successful
elsewhere, and which depend for their
success, not on the success of any po-
litical party, not in the adoption of
revolutionary principles of govern
those interested in a particular &C
tivity to get together on their own re-
sponsibility and conduct their affairs
prudently and independently as thou
sands of others are now doing.
The subject. is not at all new here.
It has been discussed for a long time,
and some steps have been taken here
and there to put into practice such
policies Is are now recommended.
The Herald has frequently pointed to
the success Of the great cooperative
movements on the west coast as an
illustration of what it Is possible for
producers to accomplish when they
take steps to act together for the pro-
lection Of their own business inter-
ests. Cooperation Of this kind is
practical n bustnesslike. It is the
direct opposite of the political control
which agitators are trying to foist
upon the state.

BANKING OR PROPAGANDA?

The current number Of the Bank
of North Dakota bulletin is, like most
of its predecessors. devoted about ten
per cent to figures relating to the con-
dition Of the bank, and 80 per cent to
propaganda.
In connection with the financial
statement presented. it is pertinent to
remark that there is an apparent lack
Of consistency in the issuance By the
manager Of the bank in issuing a
public statement concerning the
banks condition and the attitude of
himself and his employers and politi-
cal associates in using every imagin-
able device to prevent a report Of the
banks condition made by an Impair
tial accounting firm from coming to
the attention Of the public. The pres
ent statement purports to give the
condition Of the bank at the close of
business on January Is. The report
of the accounting firm will cover, it
is supposed, the entire history Of the
bank since its creation. The anxiety
which those responsible for the con-
duct Of the bank in seeking to prevent
public knowledge Of the contents Of
this report casts suspicion on the
bank itself and on all the statements
which it, officers may make concern
ing IT

1t Il pointed out that on several oc-
5castons the attitude OF Japanese SOL
disrs In Siberia toward American
troops stationed there has been Of
Ifersive and generally unsatisfactory.
tits believed that in this case the rep
reservations made to the Japanese
government will be vigorous
than would ordinarily be called for
by the act Of ar excited or stupid pri-
waite soldier.
The overturn in the French govern
ment is complete. BRAND has taken
the policy Of his administration. which
is decidedly more positive N agrees
sive than that OF the colorless Ley
CUES. The new administration, which
seems to have the backing of a SUBJ
stantial majority in the French par
lament, declares hat it will insist
on German compliance with the treaty
s~tipulations as to disarmament and
repArAdons; that peace with Turkey
must be based on recognition Of new
conditions: that France is DESTROYS of
peace with Germany. but that she
has the power t. enforce compliance
with treaty sttpulations, and will S
it If necessary; and that while France
has no intention of invading Russian
territory, she does not concede the
right Of the Soviet government to in
wade the territory OF Frances allies.
Austria, which is just now in a sor
OF governmental r~eceivership, is con-
sidering the ~desirability of union with
Germany, and it is reported that in
certain sections there is a strong de-
mand for plebiscite Oh the subject.
Such a union has frequently been dis
cussed, and it was fatty opposed by
the entente powers when the condi-
tions of peace were being formulated.
Should the plebiscite movement get
well under way it will undoubtedly
create some stir in all the European
capitals.

BOOZE FIGHTING.

For the married man who thinks he
cannot get along without drink, the
following is suggested as means of
freedom from bondage to the saloon:
Start a saloon in your own house.
Be the only customer(youIl have no
license to pay) Give your wife two
dollars extra to buy a gallon of Whis-
key, and remember there are sixty
nine drinks in a gallon. Buy your
drinks from no one but your wife, and
by the time the first gallon is gone she
will have four dollars and fifty cents
to put in the bank and two dollars to
start in business again. (She can
throw in some drinks on the house.)
Should you live ten years and con-
tinue to buy booze from her, and then
die with the snakes in your boots,
she will have enough money to bury
you decently, educate your children,
buy house and lot, marry decent
man, and quit thinking about you en-

ON SAVING MONEY.

(Marshalltown Times Republican,
jim Hill, the empire-builder, who
started life as a boy clerk on a steam
boat and died as president OF three
great railroad corporations, once
said that if you want to know wheth-
err you are going to be success or
not you can find out, Are you able
to save money? II not drop out.
You will lose; you may think not, but
YOU will lose as sure as fate, for the
seed of success is not in you. with
this as a text the National Assocla-
ton of Life Underwriters puts out
the following statistics
"Eighty-two out of every 100 men
who die leave nothing in their es-
tates Only one in hundred dies
rich and only two are even Well-to-do.
Fifteen leave less than $4,000.
'Out of every 100 widows thirty
five are left absolutely dependent on
some relatives, forty-seven must go
to work by taking in washing and the
like and only eighteen can live on
their incomes.
"Of every 100 men who start out in
life, thirty-six will die before they at
tain 65 years of age. OF the sixty
four living at that age all but ten Will
be absolutely dependent upon their
relatives, and five of the ten will still
have to work for their living. Only
one out of the original 100 will be
rich and only four well-to-do.
"At the age of Is only thirty-seven
will be living and all but three OF them
will be dependent upon somebody else
for support"
Men who fail to save early in life
for a home of their own or for the
accumula lion of capital with which to
go into business are destined to the
poor house, an old peoples home, for
an old age of dependency, or else they
will die early and leave widows with
no means of support.
Old Jim Hill was a very wise man.
He began with nothing and made
millions in his day In spite Of his
millions he raised a son who knew
how to work. and to save instead of
becoming a spendthrift. In his life
time Jim Hill employed thousands Of
men and knew their traits of char
acter as farmers know their calves.
After life had become an old story
and an open book to him he said that
if a man is to succeed he must save"
eff you are not able to save money,
drop out. The seed of success is not
in you"

WHY FEAR2

To fear is to fail. There is no likli-
hood of success in any field of endeav-
or for one who is slave of that great
wrecker of human happiness-fea
1t is pitiful to think how many of us
are slaves of this harsh master. From
the cradle to the grave we fear things
and people.
Emerson says: Always do what you
are afraid to do" Every time we do
something we are afraid to do, we
are stronger for the next battle. At
ter all, what have any of us to fear?
The power of good is certainly strong
er than the power of evil. If we
could only remember that our well
fare is dear to the heart of our Crea-
tor, we would fear nothing In the
morning, consider the many things
you are afraid to do Then do them.
You will be surprised at the number
of them. Don't be afraid to do any
thing that is right, anything that does
not bring unhappiness to others.
If you want to succeed you must
not be afraid to try. Above all, don't
be afraid of failure The person Of
real courage does not fear defeat.

JUDICIAL VOTE RECOUNT.
(From the Richland Rustic.l


(FrOm the Richland Rustic.)
AS a result of conference of sew
eral citizens of this city, held toward
the close of last week, it was deter
mined to investigate some of the cleo
ton proceedings of last Tuesday, the
returns from Lafayette county and
some of the precincts of southern
Grant county which are so peculiar
that they cause wOnderment.
For instance the village of Cuba
City, with population of approx
imately $780, cast 800 votes. That may
be absolutely alright, and the pre-
sumption is that it is right, but it is
unusual and gives rise to the wonder
ment if there could have been any
mistake made. These gentlemen who
have decided to ascertain if there is
a possibility of a mistake, have pre-
vailed upon Judge Bancroft to sign
a complaint which will permit of the
investigation being made. 1t is neces-
sary under the law, that the candi-
date himself must sign such a COM
plant On Tuesday of this week three
of our local citizens drove across to
Lancaster and Darlington, where they
met consulting attorneys and where
they served notice upon the officials
of request for recount. 1t is not
fair to our neighbors to reflect upon
their integrity, and this movement is
not started with that in view, but it
is equally unfair to interested citi-
zens of this section to allow so un-
usual and astounding circumstances
go uninvestigated. Maybe every other
person in Cuba City is voter, but
that proportion does not prevail in
other localities. Even with the wO-
men voting, the normal ratio is less
than two out of five of the population.
There is more than just the Cuba
City matter that battles the under
standing of these people who reside
so far away that they could not OBJ
serve the operations. If the investi-
CATION amounts to nothing else than
teaching us how they do those things
it will be worth its cost from the
standpoint of education.
This is reprinted because it refutes
the story gotten out by the judges
opponents here that he was playing
the baby act" and couldn't take his
medicine. 1t seems that the motion
for a recount did not emanate from
Bancroft but from his close support
ers and that he concurred that they
might feel satisfied. One of his OPP
ponents said Saturday that the re-
quest for a recount had hurt Ban
croft among his admirers in this
county. Maybe SO but we doubt it.
Ii such friends exist they are of the
fair-weather tyne who blow hot and
cold until they locate the winning
side and then hike to cover. They
(if they EXIST are probably assuring
the successful candidate that they
were really for him all the time but
just hung around the other camp to
get information. We like the man

Man 4 TOOL USING ANIMAL.

Man is tool using animal. Weak
in himself, and of small stature, he
stands on a basis, at most for the flat
test-soled, of some half-square foot,
insecuely enough; has to straddle
out his legs, lest the very wind sup
plant him. Feeblest of bipeds! Three
quintals are a crushing load for him;
the steer of the meadow losses him
aloft, like a waste rag. Nevertheless
he can use Tools, can devise Tools:
with these the granite mountain melts
into light dust before him; seas are
his smooth highway, winds and fire
his unwearying steeds. Nowhere do
YOU find him without Tools; without
Tools he is nothing, with tools he is

FOREIGN LANDS.

(By ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON.)
Up into the cherry tree
Who should climb but little me?
| held the trunk with both my hands
And looked abroad on foreign lands.
saw the neXt-door garden lie,
Adorned with flowers before my eye
And many pleasant faces more,
That / had never seen before.
saw the dimpling river pass
And be the sky's blue Iooking-glass
The dusty roads go up and down
With people tramping in to town.
If | could find higher tree
Farther and farther | should see,
To where the grownup river slips
Into the sea among the ships.
To where the roads on either hand
Lead onward into fairy land,
Where all the children dine at five,
And all the playthings come alive.
