VETERANS WILL
ENCAMP IN CITIES

ut will take team of wild horses
to keep me from coming to the re-
union of my old division-the fight
ing 88th" writes Major General Will
liam Weigel, who commanded the
Cloverleaf boys of the 88th from Iowa,
Missouri, Nebraska, Minnesota, the
Dakotas, Montana, Illinois, and Wis
consin, overseas. And the declaration
Of their popular wartime leader, now
in Staten Island, New York, is echoed
by every former Cloverleafer from
Maine to California.
Not only will the Twin Cities and
the great state Of Minnesota honor
the Cloverleaf boys with doings at
Fort Smelling and at the Minnesota
State Fair, where divisional parade
will be held September I'd, but on
Sunday, September Sd, there will be
a big Field Day Of sports to which
the governors of the boys home states
have been invited, as well as Governor
General Sir Julian Byng of Canada,
famous in Flanders during the big
fight. Uncle Sam will help entertain
by staging polo matches, military re-
views, etc, and the Fort Smelling Com
nandant, Colonel Bjornstad, says he
will shoot off every gun at the Fort
in honor of his guests, who will be
; housed in army barracks free of
charge and may secure good meals for
! the entire three days of the reunion,
Sept. 1928, at nominal cost of 50.
Everyone connected with arrange
! ments for the reunion Of Cloverleaf-
ers, both veterans and Twin City busi-
ness men, are pleased with the COOP
f.; Grafton Of the war department, the
Minnesota State Fair Association, and
all concerned; and everything points
to huge and enjoyable encampment
of the boys who wore the lucky four
leafed clover on their shoulders when
they hiked and fought together.

! Married-on August 9, 1922. at
high noon, at the home of the brides
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. F. W. Cathro,
at Bottineau, N. D., Roy Allen Wes-
ton and Miss Anita Cathro. 1t was
very pretty home wedding with on
ly the brides family and intimate girl
friends of the bride and Mrs. H. Wes-
ton, mother of the groom being pres
ent. The rooms were beautifully dec
Grated in yellow and green which were
the dominating color scheme. Rev. !.
M. McBain, pastor of the Baptist
church was the officiating minister
and the ring service was used. A
very sumptious luncheon was served
after the ceremony and then the hap
py couple left in their automobile for
Jerome, Idaho, where the groom is
teaching. They go via the Yellow
stone Park and will stop at many
points of interest and expect to ar
rive at Jerom about September first.
Mr.. and Mrs. Roy Weston are both
graduates of the University, gradual
ing in 1920. The bride is the daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. F. w. Cathro,
we'll known citizens of Bottineau and
,, is said to be most estimable young
lady. The groom is Valley City
boy, a splendid young man, of ster-
i ling worth and character and has al

free merchandise, am sure will des-
troy confidence in advertising.
"Manyfake sales are being run, and
it is hard to distinguish between these
kind of sales and sales that are hon
est Good, clean cut, straightforward
advertising, CONTINUOUSLY USED
AND CHANGED EACH ISSUE OF
THE PAPER, will bring results with
out fail".
Fred Mann believes with this writer
that advertising really costs nothing
when you do it right and continuously
"All your other overhead is in the
store anyway, he says, "and if by ad-
vertising you can increase your busi-
ness 25, so or rs per cent you are just
that much to the good, less the cost
of the advertising"
| Of course he has to meet severe
competition from mail order houses.
Says he: "We have used mail order
methods in fighting mail order COM
petition. We aim to get just as good
advertising and more of it in the
hands of the people of our territory
than the mail order houses. We keep
up a continual campaign Of advertis-
ing, watching the mail order house
catalogue prices, so that we know we
are competing with them at all times
Our specific point and plan in our ad-
vertising is service to the consumer at
all times. We find that we can sell
service to great advantage"
In concluding his letter to "The
American Press" Mr.. Mann said some
thing that should interest local pub
fishers as we'll as furnish an item fol
thought to the country merchants
Hsfee it is: >-'2-<.. ''-'
IL am to talk to the National Ad-
vertisers at their convention at the
Drake hotel in Chicago on March 4
at which time I shall advocate very
strongly the coupling up of national
advertising with the local press. This
because have found out in our own
territory, having population OF
10000 in a radius Of so miles of Dev-
lis Lake, that national advertisers
by their present advertising methods
are reaching only 1000 families, OF
5000 people out Of the 100000.

Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 10-The con
ference here yesterday afternoon be-
tween the Ignite coal operators con-
vened at 1:30 o'clock for the purpose
of looking into the Ignite rate situa-
ton. Most of the members were pres
ent at the morning session that were
present at the afternoon session.
More than 80 per cent of the Ignite
shippers were also represented here.
The main talk of the conference was
the alleged identity of the rate in the
state that practically excluded the op-
orators west of the Missouri river
from entering into competition with
the mines located on the east side of
the river. The situation seems to be
caused by the flouting of the percent
age increases more than in the cost
subsequent to the war and from prac-
tically mileage standpoint. The per-
centage increase is the result that the
mines that needed the most protection
aremulcted in much larger sum and
because of the higher rates no wex-
listing. The situation is believed to be
general and recognized as such by
those present and several suggestions
were made and recommended. A COM
mittee has been appointed to study the
rate situation and make a report later.

General Items OF wheat prOductlOnS
costs are being determined so that
they may be used in the future.
Thus available figures compiled
show that an average Of six hours an
acre Of a mans time is necessary to
raise wheat (not including threshing.)
1t takes about 10 hours Of horse
labor.
Seed one to one and one-half BUSH
els per acre.
Twine - Three quarters to two
pounds.
The highest acre cost of producing
wheat in 1921 yet found is $32 per
acre-lowest Sc. The 1921 yield rang
ed from two to "a bushels per acre.
Potatoes-Were produced on one
farm at an average Of 81 cents per
bushel. In 1921 farmers averaged a
less on wheat ,(some as much as 81
a bushel) but a profit on potatoes
a few cents to so cents bushel.
Corn-Acre cost in one county about
SIG.
Cost of Summer Fall0w
Summer fallowing-Must be dis
tributed to overhead expense or other
crop production. Costs SIS to $40 per
acre. If farm is not too large it is
generally possible to rest the ground
by raising corn and potatoes with re-
suits just as good, and these bring
in income where following does not.
Horses-It is necessary to allow for
investment, depreciation and feed.
The average work horse on the North
Dakota farm gets in only about 80
days work year and this brings his
labor from so cents to $1.5o day.
Available records indicate it was
cheaper to work a horse than a trac-
tor in 1921 but these do not consider
that a tractor can do more things and
that man can finish job quicker
with it.
Cattle-Because of a marked de-
crease in cattle prices between the
beginning and the end Of 1921 only
a few farmers made money with cat
tie. Because of severe feed condi-
tions many cattle were carried thru
the year on low costs-some as low
as $40 to $50 per head. Income from
sale of dairy products and beef
amounted from few dollars a head
to SIS head per year. A man can
earn from 20 to Is cents per hour
summer and winter caring for cattle
in some cases. In others, nothing
was made. - -
: Labor distribution - BY including
raising of other crops and livestock
with wheat the farmer not only
eliminates risk but also spreads his
labor and the use of his work stock
and equipment over greater number
of days thus making for greater effi-
cheney. A saving of as much as GO
cents day for each days labor done
by horses has been noted between q
farm where only grains were raised
and one where diversification and
livestock raising was practiced.

WHEAT ZsS4RMINC
4, BIG GAMBLE

Wheat {. ming in North Dakota is
risky business and radical changes
must come in the systems on wheat
raising farms if they are to be made
to pay, Rex Willard, head of the de-
partment of economics of the North
Dakota Agricultural College, told a
conference of investigators, and ex-
tension and college workers at a con-
ference held at the college this after
noon.
Every time the farmer plants an
acre of grain he can gamble that it
has only a. chances out of 100 of
ever reaching maturity - and there
are Sc chances against it. This isn't
pessimistic guess but a result of
observations made on more than 100
widely scattered farms Of the state
for five years, he said.
Here is the conclusion Mr.. Willard
reached after going over a long list
of figures from many farms for sew
eral years:
Cost Of per bushel of wheat pro-
duction must be reduced or a num-
ber Of wheat farmers in North Da-
kota will soon be driven out of busi-
ness.
A less acreage of wheat per farm
must become the practice.
On this less acreage greater yield
per acre must be made. "a Is bushel
to the acre average is necessary to
make it pay, he said.)
On the other acreage a greater d.
versity of feed and cultivated crops,
including legumes appears to be an
economic necessity.
Raising of livestock reduces risk
more than anything else for it is the
surest return of all.
The meeting here was held to ac-
quaint the workers with the cost pro-
duction work the college is doing un-
der Mr.. Willard's supervision, to de-
termine the following:
: /. To find the leaks if there are
any.
2. To find out how the efficient
farmer operates and makes money.
3. To determine which enterprises
on the farm are profitable and which
not. .,......s.. -. ,4rs.s .,.;.. u .
4. To determine the size and type
of farm that can be operated most
efficiently: that is, to get the
right balance between the size Of the
farm, and the combination of crops
to make best use, of work stock,
buildings and other equipment.
S. To learn what combinations of
enterprise in crops and stock will pay
the farm organization taking costs
and risks into consideration.
The farm accounts department of
the college has secured the co-opera-
ton of 1876 farmers in the state who
have kept records of acreage, num-
ber of head Of livestock, income from
these, amount of work put upon each
crop and class of livestock, cost of
all labor, cost of board, work horses
and machinery and overhead.
What Figures Show
Here are some of the things these
figures show, he said:
Wheat-Six recorded farms in RAM
sey county show little variation in
per acre cost of raising it-$15.03 low
est and $16.48 highest. Difference in
yield brought a greater difference in
cost per bushel-$1.09 low and $1.54
high. ...s -.

COLDS Due
TO OYERHEATlNG
Director Fu-bush Declares Tenpera-
turu Should Not Be Over 6S.

In these days when so many citi-
zens arc coughing and sneezinS, DR..
G. Lincoln F'urbush, director Of pub
lie health comes forward with a sug-
gestion that should keep many re-
cruits from the "wheeze and blow"
brigade In brief, don't overhead
your home"
"An oyerheated home" says the
director, ''is a poorly ventilated one.
In order that all indoor atmosphere
be healthful it should be maintained
at temperature of 65 to 68 degrees
Fahrenheit with sufficient amount of
moisture to bring about comfort.
The power of the air to absorb and
retain heat depends largely upon the
amount of moisture in it. When
the amount of moisture is decreased
there is required a higher degree of
heat to give it the desired sensation
or warmth and comfort.
THE bedroom windows should be
kept open throughout the night, the
amount of opening depending upon
the individual requirements. No
heating system is efficient until it is
combined with adequate ventilation,
which adds moisture to the dry air,
carries away tn- contaminated at
mosphere, and supplies fresh, healthy
ortdO0r air -

boys have been treated at the hos
pital and every day complaints are
received by the police of windows
broken or of persons who have mar
rowly escaped being shot as the re-
suit of the careless firing of rifles in
the hands of boys. An ordinance of
Cambridge prohibits the shooting OF
firearms within the corporate limits
and notice is hereby given to all par
ents that the police have been in
structed to strictly enforce this Or
dinance All boys caught firing
rifles or reported for doing so will be

1 Calder looked inquiringly into her face. It had grown suddenly com pos ed The color was high iu her 1 cheeks, but her n1u-;th was rigid and proud, her eyes unwavering. Calder quietly dropped her hand. The priests were without the door. The Mexican had dismountGd and was entering with elaborate courtesy.
 'Senor,'' he said. "el Padre Andal- esio espera efuera."
 Calder looked again into Cecelia's face.
 "Diles que pasen.' he said briefly
 Cecelia cast one glance of hopeful expectancy at the priest as he entered but it faded before he austeriry of pulse to speak and stood severely si- lent.
 Forgive me- Calder whispered
 The priest advanced blanhly. Me es dado a entender que desea listed que assista yo a casa ntento, he said
 "Esta la Senorita de acue :do?"
 ''He asks if the senorita is willing,'' '' Calder interpreted.
 "Yes,' Cece1ia replied. Her voice had the hollow sound of d brook running under ice
 The priest beckoned his assistant with a wide motion of his hand. He Ignored the strangeness of the hour, and the strangeness of the lady who stood now very pale and firm Tipped in the graynesS that was beginning to reveal the squalor of the room.
 He performed the ceremony with due solemnity.
 When the ring was placed upon Cecelia's finger she trembled slightly, but immediately recovered her com posture. She made the responses, knelt with Calder, received the priests blessing, permitted the bride groom's kiss, all with wooden calm of an automaton.
 The dullness had frightened into a certainty of light as the black gowned priest and his assistant walk ed from the room. Black they stood for an instant against the yellow east. then rode away.
 Calder took Ceeelfa's passive hand.
 Look" he said, holding howard the eastern sky-"the dawn."
 CeceHa gazed out ind;fferently. It was the moment of still cxpenctancy just before the breaking of the geld into a thousand gems of color. The ghost1y plains were waiting for the miracle. Presently the great sur, swathed in purple. would swing above the horizon.
 Was the marriage legaI?' Cecelia asked, turning haughtily to Calder.
 'I took pains to have every for malfty covered"
 "How?"
 How ?"
 Money" he retorted succinctly.
 ''The marriage license ?"
 None is required here"
 "The certificate?'
 "Conception has it.'' He called to the Mexican, who retired delicately without the door. "Lleva e1 papel a la senora."
 Cecelia took the certificate from the MeIcan's servi1e hand and flung it on the mud floor at her feet.
 Take me to Rodeo!" she exclaimed fiercely to Calder.
