URGE FARMERS
TO PRODUCE
own SUPPLY

Warrington, Dcc- 7.-Fa m ;
should produce more of their own
foodstuffs and buy less that must be
brought to them by railroads, ac-
cording to a survey of opinion
among $4,000 farmers, made public
today by the department of agricul-
ture. Nearly 30 per cent of the food
consumed by farmers and their fam
lilies generally is not grown by them
or in their immediate vicinity, it
was shown, whereas, it was estimat-
ed that 79 instead of 70 per cent Of
their needs could be produced local.
ly. -.. ,
High freight rates, it was explain
ed, tend to reduce the price farmers
receive for their products and at the
same time increase the cost to them
for the things they buy from out
side localities. so greater home pro-
duction of htcir own requirements
would prove economical and make
them less dependent upon the rail-
roads and the outside world.

Fargo, N. D., Dec. 7.-Authoritlcs
who have studied the public health
system in North Dakota say it is in
chaos, DR.. Robert Oleson of the
United States Public Health Service
told an audience here late yesterday.
Some effective work is being done
by state and private organizations,
he added, but lack of correlation
between such effort and the state
board of health has resulted in con-
fusion and inefficiency.
He spoke of the annual approprl-
alton of the state board of health
as the smallest and the least per
CAPITA amount for any state in the

STEAMER BATTERED

STEAMER DAl Ln6O
Sault St. Marie, Mlch., Dec7.-
with her interior battered, all fur
niturc abroad smashed and the
sleeping quarters wrecked, the
steamers Charles NJ. Warner Of
Buffalo is at a pier here effecting
repairs to engines and recuperating
the strength Of officers and crew
after a thrilling experience in Lake
Huron during the storm Of Thurs
day night.
The vessel with her engines out
of commission so that it could run
in reverse gear only, was battered
by the sixty mile storm that reached
hurricane proportions off Saginaw
bay. The vessel almost rolled over
at times. During the height of the
storm the captain and crew, all
wearing life preservers worked at
the engines effecting temporary re-
pairs to broken rods.
The 21 men in the crew were a
unit in saying they owed their lives
to the courage of Captain Hugh
Little, who urged them to "buck
up" so that temporary repairs could
be effected.
The Warner loaded with coal is
bound for Duluth. She probably
will be here several ways making
repairs.

organization is proceeding rapidly.

rectors are in the hands Of the
members and must be returned be-
fore 6 p. m. Saturday, Dec. g.. The
directors elected will choose a .secre-
tary. ..,... T. :,
Various Programs g.
Some of the suggestions of MEM
bers, most of whom sought to put
forward the things they we're most
Interested in, give food for thought.
One mans program was: community
Christmas and central regulation
bureau, auto camp, city play park.
Another wanted control of soliciting
of fake and worthless advertising,
another a Bismarck trade mark, a
third a public market place with
proper conveniences and control, and
camp grounds for auto tourists.
Another woman, said: "Better spir-
it between the country and the city.
More entertainments, lectures, con-
certs, for the benefit of the coun-
try people. Community chest and CELL
trail registration bureau.
A program with eight planks in it
was suggested by another. 1t fol-
lows: ... .k....
1. Promote settlement of. sur
rounding trade territory. s
2. Encourage poultry and corn
show. rs I
8. Urge Improvement of trunk
highways, Burleigh County. =
4. Establish traffic and transpor-
tation bureau within the club.
5. Street marking.
6. Encourage band.
T. Immediate action on tourist
park. ~
s. Better publicity for Bismarck
and Missouri Slope.
Would Help County Agent
Support for the good roads move
ment, a new courthouse, good rail
road service to Bismarck, opposition
to increase of public utility rates
before railroad commission was urg-
ed by the member. Another in the.
same group urged that the county
agent be supported in his work for
better farming methods and that
rest room for farmer families be
maintained.
A broad suggestion was made in
the following language: "Advertisc
the agricultural possibility, especial
~ corn. etc., of the country tribu-
tarv to Bismarck. Advertise in news
papers in Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin
and other states. What Bismarck
wants is more and better farmers. If
the country prospers the town will
grow. Reasonable park and recrea-
tion facilities to make the city
good place to visit"
Support for a band was frequently
mentioned. Building of community
building, an educational survey, gar
bage disposal and filtration and dis
tribution of city water was another.
A merchant suggested: "organize
a mark board with the intention OF
planning municipal parks and play
grounds. Establish real auto camp
Establish a community chest for
charity"
professional man urged: Secure
tract 16O acres on river for city
park. Elect park board. Get trade
mark and slogan"
Wants Fairgrounds and Band
Another professional man urged:
"1nvestigate housing conditions. Pro-
mote better feeling between city ana

grounds and band. Organize an as

NO TRACE OF

Police Hold Two Men Charged
With Aiding in Her
Escape

Cheyenne, Wyo., Dec. 7.-Search
here Of the Union Pacific train on
which Mrs. Clara Phillips, convicted
murderess of Mrs. Alberta Meadows
in Los Angeles, was reported to be a
passenger, following here escape from
the Los Angeles county Jail Tuesday,
failed to show that she was on board.
One woman remotely resembled
the description of Mrs. Phillips, but
after questioning her the police did
not detain her.
The woman admitted she had been
in Los Angeles recently, but insisted
she boarded the train at Ogden, Utah.
She had a ticket from Ogden to Bal.
timore, Md. She appeared somewhat
older than the age given for Mrs.
Phillips. ,st-,.~. ..... .
Search for Mrs. Clara Phillips,
escaped murdercss from the Los
Angeles county Jail, which today
took in the western half Of the
country, has been without avail.
Developments south Of the Califor-
MIA border in Mexico eliminated
that section from the hunt for the
slayer of Mrs. Alberta Meadows.
Sheriff w. E. Traeger and a posse
made an unfruitful search ut a re-
sort near Tijuana, Mexico, and re,
ported the escaped woman had not
been there. Reports received here
from the east showed that Mrs.
Phillips was not on east bound
trains on which she had been re-
ported.
