There is another prospect of a road
to Cooke City. It's merchants and
others interested in the mines of
that region are considering a propo-
sition of eastern capitalists to build
a road by the Stinkingwater route
from some point on the Union Pacif-
&c. They expect to have it completed
by September l, 1898, provided the
Cooke City people and mine owners
will give them sufficient interest in
the mines and property. The Cooke
City people are to deposit in escrow,
deeds and bonds as they choose, in
the name of ", w. Dudley, of Wash
IngtOn, to be held until the road is
completed. We will be pleased to see
Cooke have railroad communication
with the outside world, but we have
little faith that the above scheme viii

BEST. THINGS TO EAT
By Albert Apple

Your instinct (appetite) can usually be trusted in the
matter of what you should should not This idea is
advanced by Dr. Graham Lusk Of Cornell Medical School,
DR.. Lusks experiments show that animals instinctvey
choose the foods that best for them Rats turned loose
in profuson of choice things eat pounce upon the
containing certain .ytamines they need
Says Lusk 1T does not seem possible that the established
habits of diet of be deeterous his welfare For
exarpN the Eskimo lives largely upon meat yet does not
contract gout Meat increases the heat production very
greatly and is food in cold weather.
Food fad have been the vogue for several years. They
unquestonably accomplish much particularly certain
diets for adding weight reducing fat Again. many peo
pie under nourished though they eat ot pros
per diet supplied to them by expert furnishes necessary
food substances they have not been getting. 49,
But food fads, like everything else, be overdone
The New York State Department of Health declares:
One Of most fads is the going ithoutbreak
fast fa This has been especially developed among young
people, notably girls The normal person needs nourish
ing breakfast to draw for energy used in the days acv
tes and is very doubtful if individual can or does get
ample nourishment from two meals day. .,
Science has exploded these ancient bits of hokumhat
carrots make beautiful that cruss make their hair curl
That fish is brain food that rheumatism be cured by
carrying red kidney bean horse chestnut in the pocket
that an onion the hair will relieve headache All these are
fads and just sensible of the whattoeat cults
Instinct will tell the average person what to eat and
what to avoid People with acid somachs generally need
less starch and meat than Others Strawberries buck
wheat and oatmeal excellent foods for people, but
on some they produce warning rash.
What's one mans meat is another mans poison

ignoring her warning and obey the craving

WHEAT HARVEST STARTS

AS far north as Minot, N. d..
the binders are whirring in the
wheat. The harvest is general
over the Northwest. 1t has been
a tight race this year between the
wheat and the rust. A cold spring
delayed the grain-yet strength
ened it. But a cool summer did
not mature it as quickly as usual
and the spores Of rust came out
with the advent of hot weather
and in the end gave the wheat a
neck -and-neck finish. Some of the
wheat is touched as to the leaves
but the stem--the vital parts,
on the whole, intact.
These "Garrison finishes" are
hard on the nerves The suspense
in watching the wheat to see If it
will ripen and harden before the
rust gets to the stem, is terrific
in the case of the farmer who has
his all bet upon the wheat and
against the rust. The game that
involves "all or nothing" takes
cold nerve.
Perhaps something like that
drove one farmer to play Luther
Burbank. BY selection over a
number of years, John Brisk,
whose farm Is near Mandan. N. D..
has developed a new variety of
wheat which is said to ripen ten to
twelve days ahead of the varieties
now grown. He is now cutting 300
acres. and the entire crop will be
sold for seed If corn can be ac-
climatized-as it has been-to our
shorter northern season. why can
not wheat be found that will ma
ture earlier? That is one way
around the rust spore threat,
which has year after year, been
dangerous and costly. If wheat
can be cut before heat and humid
ity make rust conditions, then the
rust danger is minimized in normal
years and in years like 1924 prac-
tically eliminated Anything that
helps to take the risk out of grow
ing any crop is stabilizer of ag-
riculture.-St. Paul Pioneer Press.

said, "but Nancy and Nick may 60

"All right" said Mrs. Seal. "Come

"Hurrah!" cried Nick. "1'm glad

So in went Nancy and Nick to see
the circus posters in Mister and
Mrs. Seals house while Weeny slip

a snooze.
Weeny was very tired and soon
he was snoring like old Whizzy Tor
nado on rampage.
He slept and slept and slept and
all the time he was sleeping Nancy
and Nick were looking at circus pos
tiers in Mister and Mrs. Seals house
Pretty soon, or I mean pretty late
Mrs. Seal folded up all the posters
and put them away in the cupboard
where they kept all the things for
their circus acts.
"Now I'll see about lunch," said
she. Solomon, go and see if the
elephant is comfortable, and ash
him if he eats fish,"
Out went Mister Seal.
In about two seconds, in came
Mister Seal in hurry.
Hes gone!" he cried. "The place
he was standing on was ice and il
broke off and now it's floating away
in the ocean," -
They all rushed out at that, and
there was Weeny. the elephant, away
out in the ocean on an iceberg-still
sound asleep, for you could hear him
snoring.
"We're sorry but we can't stay s
week, or even for lunch" said
Nancy. "Goodby, Mister and Mrs
