Farmers Advised
to Stack Wheat

IA farmer who also keeps an eye
on the ndustriaI situation in our
country, has asked the Sheaf to sug.
gest to farmers Of the Red River, Val
ley that they stack their wheat this
year year as s far as possible, in order to
avoid l7g rushing it to market ali al
once. The railroad situation in thu
country is very bad now and it il
quite certain that the roads will MOI
pc able to- furnish sufficient cars to
move. the crop. Even under favorable
conditions the roads would be unable
to- furnish all the cars needed. Ana
other element that should induce FARM
sa,s bold i.
is the price. If dumped onto the
market all at once the effect on the
price is bound to be depressing. This
advice does not apply of course tc
farmers who have granaries on theil
farms Of sufficient capacity to store
their grain. Such farmers can haw]
out their wheat at desire during the
fall months. - ~ - aS T.

JAMES MARUSKA
SERIOUSLY INJURED
Auto Driven By Him was Run Into
BY 3 Roseau Car on Way to Grand
Forks Last Friday Evening

James l1aes Maruska, Of this city, was
the victim Of terrible auto accident
last Friday evening that nearly cost
hin his life. The accident occurred
at the bridge across the big ditch
south OF the Northland store on the
road to Grand Forks. Mr.. ,Maruska
was on the way home from Grand
Forks and in the car with him were
MT. and Mrs. Oscar Enebak of this
CITY, AS they approached the bridge
going north they noticed a car COM
Ing from the opposite direction at a
terrific speed, they $50. Mr.. Maruska
turned to bis side of the road as far
as ne could and stopped the car at
the bridge and gave to the car that
mel them plenty of space to enable
It to pass by with safety. A bump
at the bridge caused the speeding car
TO shoot headlong into the Maruska
machlne, smashing greatly, the front
END OF both cars. The speeding car
was "a sedan and asssit Iurched to- one
SIDE! At struck Mr.. Maruska, who was
at the wheel in his machine, suuarely
IL the face, seriously fracturing his
Skull. and breaking the bones of the
supper jaw and nose, besides other
injuries Mr.. and Mrs Enebak were
not injured at all, though badly shook
up. !. ~ 2, ~
Some men in another car short
distance away happened TO see the
two cars collide and hurried to the
scene to lend assistance. Mr.. Maruska
was taken to st. Michael's hospital in
Grand Forks, where at first he was
thought to have but fighting chance
for his life. But Mr. Maruska 's>pow-
erfui physique and strength of endur-
ance are winning the day and latest
reports are to the effect that he is
now now fairly we'll on the way to re-
covery.. IA
The men in the speeding car were
r.. Rasmussen and F. O. Lindauist Of
Roseau. They were not seriously. in
jured although badly shaken up by
the collision. A warrant was sworn
out against them by the Enebaks and
they. appeared before Judge D. J. Nc
Donald, Of Grand Forks Saturday.
plead not guilty and were released on
Dond: Zine for hearing was not set
pending the outcome of Mr.. Maruska's
condition. Another charge has also
been brought against them, namely
OF Of transporting liquor Illegally, as
they are reported to have had liquor
IN their car. On this charge Polk
county authorities arrested them at
Roseau Sunday. Each gave bond Of
$1,000 for his appearance in court.
The accident apparently was caused
by the fast and careless driving on
! the part of the Roseau men,. Mr.. Mar
uska evidently did all in his power to
avoid an accident and stopped his
car TO enable the other car to pass.

have been placed in the library. Each
student in. the Normal Department will
have a regular teachers desk at which
to work. The chairs used so far in
that department have been entirely
inadequate. And in the gymnasium
will be installed new steel lockers. The
people in the city by subscribing for
the Ladies Home, Journal made these
lockers a reality. The Girls Glee Club
has placed two new pictures in the

His First Long Swim.

White sitting on the sands of the
Tidal Basin, my attention was
drawn to three small boys. From
their conversation I learned that
the Oldest boy was a good swim
mer, while the other two were
merely beginners. The older one
was teasing the other two about
not being able to swim to the
little float. After considerable
hesitation one of them decided he
would attempt 1t. So the three
"splashed" out to the ropes. where
the water was over their heads. The
boy that could swim started for the
float. followed by the beginner. Away
they splashed and foamed After
much exertion the little boy landed
on the float. On arriving he let out
an exclamation of joy. saying to
his companion, You are not the
only one who can swim."-John J.

Trials of Late Marketing.

Just as l got of the District Line

o'clock. ! saw a man standing in the
street not far from the car station
He had a box full of groceries. and
look ID as 4 he needed some help.
asked him If j could assist in carry
ing his load. He thanked me and
said he had just sent to hire a little
boy with a wagon, and was waiting
for the boy. While standing there he
told me what success he had met with
while marketing. These are a few
of the things he had: one peck of
apples, half-peck of potatoes. half
rSck of tomatoes, five canteloupes,
six squashes, one dozen ears of corn,
six grape fruits, one-half peck OF
string beans. two punches of lettuce.
five pounds of sugar. four pounds OF
lard. two pounds of rice. six pounds OF
flour and two loaves of bread. These
things only cost him $1.10. he said.
The boy came. I walked up the
street and watched him. He put the
box on the wagon and started. In
fve mintes the boy had dumped the
groceries in the street three times.
The man seemed angry and asked the
boy how much he owed him. The
man paid the little fellow and be-
gan to scold him. After all, the man
finally decided l would make a better
horse, so he saked me to assist him.

Don't Monkey With Monkeys.

j was very much interested in
a pet collie owned by a friend of
mine. I. therefore. went to the
veterinary stables where the dog
was confined. The attendant could
not find the pup. So 1 indiscreetly
went up a flight of stairs to see
IL I could make some headway in
the search. 1 had no sooner reached
the top step when with a rush of
feet and shrill chattering, a
monkey hurled itself from the top
of a window where II had been
resting and make a grab for me.
Luckily I carried a silk umbrella
and the beast grabbed that instead
of me. He ripped three ribs from
the silk and broke them in two.
l beat a hasty retreat, down the
stairs and out, satisfied that mon
keys were vicious. something that
1 had not known before, in spite
of the fact that the attendant told
me that this particular monkey did
not like women. Moral: Keep
away from animals that are not
confined in cages. even when they
are on a chain. You never can tell
what they are going to do.-E. o.
