ONE MONTHS START.

Mandan, April 18~Wheat sown
this spring has fully one months
start on the crop Of 1924, according
to county agent R. C. Newcomer, and
various others who have made a
survey in the slope. The plentiful
rains which at Mandan in the last
four days totaled 81 inch have in
sured crop. Wheat the first of
this week was up in many places as
high as four to six inches and to-
day is shooting out Of the ground un-
der the balmy influence Of bright
sun after two days of rain. The fact
that farmers were able to get into
the fields a month earlier this year
than in many past years has resulted
in an increased acreage not only in
wheat but in all other small grain
and fodder crops being seeded.

DOwnpour Insures Abundance
Of Spring Feed For

Golden rain drops, that will bring
North Dakota farmers thousands of
dollars in added profits from their
crops this year, fell over the state
yesterday and last night.
Showers or steady downpour was
reported from every section of the
state except strip from Pembina
to the Canadian line, where rain is
n handicap to farmers this time of
the year, and in the district between
Wilton and Pingree, where the rain
was needed most, there was a hard
downpour through mosa Of the
night.
The rain was especially beneficial
because the water did not fall in q
torrent anywhere in the state and
the ground absorbed all the moist
ure.
The rain was great help to pas
ture land, agricul.urists say. 1t gave
an added impetus to the hay crop
and insured an abundance of spring
feed for stock.
The heaviest rain was reported
tion was 1.2O inches. The prec:pits-
tion at Bismarck was .l6 inch, It

inch. at Williston, IS inch and at
Fargo, SO inch.
Wheat on the Missouri slope is in
excellent condition, according to re-
ports reaching here and the crop will
be greatly benefited by the rain. The
wheat is up about three inches and
has fine color, farmers say.
The freeze early in the week did
little damage, according to reports.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance
Often Rejected

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jectedSis because kidney trouble is SO
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. Dr. Kilmers
Swamp-Root is on sale at all drug stores
in bottles of two sizes, medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure
and mention this paper.

Tommy had started on his adven-

He knew he would have long climb

The first creature he had met had

He had almost stepped on the snake

He had said that it was a great re-

what he had meant at first, had said:
Whats a relief?"

the snake chortled.
It's a relief you didn't strike me

killed?"
Il should say so! J" Tommy cried.
ITS too bad" the snake said, 'but

Two-Piece Kasha Dress
Popular Golf Costume

Notwithstanding the comparative
mannishness of the golfng costume,
the tweed suit so popular In recent
seasons is being gradually replaced by
other models. The most modiSh CT
these is the twO-Diece kasha dress
consisting Of jumper and skirts-the
kasha skirt worn in combination with
a silk blouse and a slip-on sweater,
the silk plated skirt with turtle-neck
jumper, the balbriggan suit consisting
of a skirt and slip-over both In the
same bright shade, and the two-pieCe
dress with plated silk skirt and jer-
sey top, the latter trimmed with silk
collar and cuffs to match the skirt.
A dark brown jersey golfing suit is
very much in accord with the present
vogue for the practical. 1t has box
plated skirt and three fiat box plaits
down the back of the coat. the latter
finished with belt to match. There
are large diamond-shaped inlet gusset7
under the arms that allow great free

Delicate Tints Are in
Favor for Summer Wear

A wide range of delicate tints are
being introduced for the very early
summer There are all the soft blues
and pinks and corals which have not
appeared for some seasons now, and
which are especially suited to the
gowns Of the feminine picture type.
In a recent fashion show the col
ors which were especially prominent
were yellow, blue, beige, green and a
lovely peach and apricot tint. The yell
low appears in buttercup, sulphur and
chartreuse tones, with interesting
tints bordering on gold. Blue is again
at the height of fashion, after a sea-
son or SO in which 1t disappeared
from use almost entirely. Madonna,
azure and pervenche are sponsored.
Skirts ar shorter than ever, and
some chiffon dresses have lace hens
which barely cover the knees. Most
fashion houses, however, average a
length OF fifteen inches from the
ground.

Many OF the golf blouses, instead
of fastening in the usual manner, but
ton like a mans tuxedo shirt-that is
to say, they are worn with studs and
cuff links and the smart golfer insists
that these match.
The hosiery and shoes Of this golfer
are always more ornate than for the
tennis player. The latter usually
wears light rubber-soled slippers Of
the plainest sort, and the accompany
ing stockings are seldom fancily pat
terened. Golfng shoes are more sub
stantial and need not be simple. Those
on the Vionnet model are compar-
atively elaborate and they are fit
tingly set off by Scotch plaid hose,
possibly tribute to the origin of the
game.
