THE PASSING OF THE INDIANS

Week before last one of the Ash
vance girls died. She was one of
the two sisters who have always
been seen together and who during
the life of the two were inseparable.
They were beautiful girls of. fine
character, though they lived a primi-
tive life. Now one has gone. To-
gether they were sufficient unto
themselves, it would seem, for each
bore happy countenance. Years of
such companionship without the di-
versions that come into most lives
and then to have it terminated with
one left to mourn is a sad plight.
The natural beauty and grace of
these girls whose lives have been
spent for the greater part away back
in the interior of wooded wilder
ness caused universal admiration for
them and their poise surely evidenced
real refinement. For this sorrowing
sister life will be very hard. She
has the sympathy of the people here
about to which ours is added. But
another sister, older and married, has
experienced perhaps more severe
ordeal except that a person is capa-
bic of only so much suffering and
live. We refer to Mrs. David Carri-
boo. She recently lost her husband
and now her only child, a daughter,
is gone. For her also the News
Herald joins generous public
in extending it's sympathy. May
those who understand them and
speak their language see that want
Of bodily comforts is not added to
their already great burden of sorrow

FARM MANAGEMENT MEETINGS

= AsNW 1UANA0EMENI NEE IN GS
Feeding and cropping plans for a
larger production of homegrown
feeds will be discussed at meetings
to be held during the week of July
24th-29th. These meetings will CO.
incide with the canning demonstra-
tions as to date and location. While
the ladies' are studying and discus
sing the most efficient methods in
food preservation, the men will study
ways and means for growing more
feed on the farm and so saving the
heavy outlay for feeds bought out
side the county. This is a subject
we'll worth every farmers considera-
tion. With the present high freight
rates on rail and water, freight and
handling charges present nearly fifty
cents out of every dollar paid for
feed. And this situation exists gen.
orally in northern Minnesota. A
banker in one locality made the
statement that the farmers cream
checks had gone to pay for feed and
that he had loaned four thousand
dollars additional for the same pur-
pose.
Mr.. S., B. Cleland, in charge of ex-
tension service in the northeastern
counties, will be present at all the
meetings. Every farmer, whether a
member of the Farm Bureau or not,
is urged to attend and help discuss
the problems in which he is inter-
ested.

 Every department in Washington is evincing a genuine interest in the Territory and ready to cooperate in the work of development. Co-ordina- tion is the official watchword. The imperative need is uniformly realized. There is some divergence of opinion touching methods of coordination, but none as to the necessity of more efficient and simplified system of administration.
