has better opportunity to Judge the
economic situation than L. D. Chas-
sell, general secretary of the Farmers
Mortgage Bankers Association of
America, who. when seen at the

something has turned up, like the ad-
vance in cotton, to offset this condi-
ton.
Crops have been exceptionally
small in some parts. Take North Da-
kota, for instance. In 1915 her wheat
crop totaled 152,000,060 bushels, last
year it dropped to 123.000.O0O bushels
and this year but 63,000,000 bushels.
Yet. on the other hand, the cotton
growing states, with crops none too
large, have enjoyed a boom, because
of the price advance. So, in a way,
where one section loses another
gains, and then add to this the vast
change for the better that has come
to Texas, west Iowa, east Nebraska
and certain parts of Oklahoma, and a
fairly good balance may be struck. .

:CHATTED' WITH DEAD EDITOR
Spirit of Publisher Talked in
His Old Form.

People who go to hear Sir Arthur
Conan Doyle lecture and think him
sensational ought to contact with him
privately when he is tuning under the
public rostrum, as it VERIFYING out
his dreams on you and me, or a small
group in some parlor, according to a
New York letter in the Philadelphia
Public Ledger.
His high spot in "thrill-'ems'' is q
claim he has made of having had a
twenty-minute chat since his arrival
in the United States with the late
Lord Northcliffe. He gives. all the de-
tails of a remarkable conversation in
which the departed publisher and pub
licist regrets not having his ~checkbook
along, else he would write a good one
for carrying forward the cause of
spiritualism.
Sir Arthur in many Of his talks with
persons in the next world ~dispenses
with mediums and controls. He claims
to have had his Northcliffe interview
without a medium as intermediary.
Northcliffe came to him. What trans
pired was most delightfully."- informal
and really characteristic of the bril-
liant Harmsworth, who, according to
Sir Arthur, even talked of individu-
ais who had been running his press
since his death, and not in an alto
gether complimentary manner.

After the ceremony the bride and

per at Alsop's, after which the party
broke up and Mr.. and Mrs. Listerud,
accompanied by the Misses Mont
gomery and Listerud returned to
Wolf Point on No. 2 Saturday morn
ing where they will make their home.
The bride is the daughter of Jo-
seph Montgomery of Wolf Point, a
graduate of Wesley Conservatory of
Music and a very accomplished and
popular young lady.
After the arrival in Wolf Point of
the happy couple, they were treated
to a rather elaborate charivari by
their host of friends.

SEEK RELICS OF OLD RACE
Interesting Discoveries Expected to
Follow Excavations In Mounds
Near East ST. Louis.

The ruins of the largest prehistoric
city in the United States lie near the
juncture of the Missouri and Mississip-
pi rivers close to East st. Louis, Ill
Eighty mounds are scattered over an
area of two thousand acres. One Of
them is the largest eve found in this
country.
When white men first visited that
region two hundred years ago they
found q small village of Cahokia In
dams living on the site and the mounds
had been given their names. But they
told the white men the mounds were
there when they came. No one could
tell who built them nor what became
of the vast population.
1t is believed these mounds were
built by American Indians rather than
by a separate race.
The mounds are being e~xcavated I'M
der the direction of Warren K. Moore
head, curator of the department of
archaeology, Phillips academy, Andover,
Mass. Several years will be required
to complete the exploration of the
ruins. But the time is short. The
spread Of factories is so rapid in that
locality that if explorations are de-
layed the mounds might be leveled to
make way for modern industry. Thus
the secrets of that ancient civilization
would be lost forever.

BARRY FORCETS SPEECH
TO PRESIDENT HARDING

What shall I say to President
Harding?"
Wesley Barry, the juvenile featur-
ed played of "Rags to Riches" the
Harry Rapf production sponsored
by Warne Brothers, which m to
the Liberty theatre on Thursday and
Friday for a two-day run, was sorely
puzzled on this subject.
Yves had received a reply from
President Harding, stating he would
be delighted to grant the freckled
idol of screendom an interview when
he toured through Washington. The
lad felt he ought to do justice to such
an occasion. He asked his friends
what he should do, but having no
precedent, they could not enlighten
him. Finally, he decided to prepare
a speech and for weeks was busily
engaged in rehearsing many foria
phrases.
He was ushered into the sanctum
of the chief executive, dropped his
eyes to the floor, and began with:
"Mr. President, this is one of the
proudest moments Of my life" when
he caught the kindly gaze Of the
president and forgot his speech.
We jes' talked about pictures
he afterwards told Director Wallace
Worsley.

ALASKANS HOST TO
PRESIDENT and WIFE

Rest seemed Tuesday to have re-
stored Mrs. Harding from fatigue.
which Monday led President Harding
to turn southwark over the Alaskan
railroad from Fairbanks instead of
pursuing a plan, cherished by the
Alaskans and enthusiastically urged
by Mrs. Harding, to proceed back
toward the coast by automobile.
Nearly "a hours were passed by the
presidential party in Fairbanks, the
northern terminus of the railroad.
City Impresses
The president left there Monday
evening, greatly impressed by the
agriculture and the mining of which
that city, sometimes called the Chi
cago of Alaska, is the center. But
he was much disappointed at missing
the automobile trip, which would
have led $50 miles ver the Richard
son highway to Chitiata, where "a
train would have been taken on the
Copper River & Northwestern rail
way to Cordova. At Cordova the
party would have boarded the navy
transport Henderson, on which the
president and his party left Tacoma,
Wash, July 5 and by means of which
they visited the principal points in
southeastern Alaska. The president
expects to go upon the Henderson
at Seward, where the party left the
vessel, and to proceed to Cordova.
The president attributes Mrs. Hard
ing's fatigue to the earnest hospital
ity of the Alaskans and to the long
DAYS at this time of the year, This
led to many hours of activities with
shortened periods of rest. The presl-
dent told the people of Fairbanks
that Mrs. Harding had been forced
to 90 to bed, worn out. She had
received several gifts from the peo-
pie of the city earlier in the day.
Collar for Laddy Boy
The Fairbanks folks ever remem-
bered Laddy Boy, the presidents dog,
with a collar of moose hide, decorat-
ed with a nugget of gold and fossil
ivory valued at $500.
While at Fairbanks the president
complimented w. F. Thompson, pub
Usher of the Fairbanks News-Miner,
and n of the pioneers of the terri
tory. on a special edition gotten out
Monday in honor of Mr.. Harding.

An artist was commissioned to paint

like Othello, he wished to tell her of

enced and of many accidents by field
and flood. She knew he had been in
