at equipping the individual for a competitive existence. It fails in anything but a narrow and selfish purpose if it does not early rouse the childs mind to a sense of the solidarity of humanity in this con- tinuous intellectual life inherited from the ages.a More than that, it should persuade him to take a part in it, to add his quota to the heap ed up treasures for his children and his children's children to inherit.
 The American public school is perhaps mans highest effort So far to make a reality of human solidar- ity. It recognizes no classes, no dl- visions based on economic or social prestiges The humblest and the highest may meet here and be friends. How much the public school has done outside of it's curriculum in fostering those sturdy standards of democracy and free opportunity on which the hope of America and the world, is based no one can say.
 Education might be more direct and more efficient if each pupil knew in advance just what he was going to do, to what station in life he was to be called. But part of the adventure of our American life is that no one knows this. The boy whose pants are patched at the knee may be president of the re- public a few decades from now. Vo- cational guidance is bound to have it's limitations.
 But every boy and girl knows one destiny which awaits him: He is go- ing to be citizen in free land. He is going to have to learn to live and work and play with his fellows. He is going to be part in great social mechanism designed to carry humanity farther ahead on it's path. And so, perhaps, the best thing he learns at school is how to get along with his fellows, how to cooperate with them, how to make the puny individual effort mighty by combin- ing it with numberless other puny efforts. That is what America is giving to the world: lesson in it's great public schools of the essential solidarity of human existence.

WHAT IS EDUcATION?

Children have been back in school only a few days. The routine of en enrolment in new classes is over. New teachers and new work confront them on the opening of the new term. They have picked up the task of get tig an education where they left it last fall.
 What is an education? The par ent, looking back on his own school days and glancing at the array of new books at the openng of the school year, is included to wonder. How much he learned has been of no practical use to hm How much, on the other hand, gathered out of school durng those impressionable years has been of estimate benefit.
 If I had only known what I was going to do," he is inclined ot say, how much better I might have equipped myself for it."
 But certain things do not depart The ability to study, once acquired is not quickly lost. Specific knowl- edge goes if it is not used more or less constantly, but the power to dig into a subject, to gather it's essen tials and apply them practically need never go if the student will keep his brain processes in good working order by practice.
 Part of what every child learns is this ability to study, to make his memory work for him, to put his brain into harness. Another part is a broad survey of the world as il is, some of its sciences, little o1 it's historical and literary traditions He learns that he is a social being that he is the heir to a vast herit age of thought, and that life is not simply a span of three score years and ten but continuity of menta lives. Plato, Shakespeare, Goethe these are but stepping stones b! which the thought of mankind ha! crossed and is still crossing to wha unknown heights.
 Education is worthless if it is view ed simply as a means to persona advancement. It should not res

MAN BUYS BIG
FARM IN N. ID.

Fargo, N. D., July 18.-Hans Sor-
enson Of Sacramento, CAL, has pur-
chased the big farm at West Fargo,
known as the Haggart farm, consist
ing of 1920 acres, from DR.. John
Rindlaub of Fargo, the price being
on basis of approximately $75 per
acre, and will develop it at once as
an alfalfa, livestock and all round
diversified farming venture.
Mr.. Sorenson is now purchasing
the equipment with which to begin
improvements. He will have two
tractors summer following the farm
within few days and expects to
develop it intensively.
This big tract Of land has been idle
for several years. 1t is located along
the National Parks highway.
Mr.. Sorenson believes that it is an
ideal spot for a>big alfalfa and live
stock ranch.
For years Mr.. Sorenson was en-
gagged in the milling business at
Minneapolis, Lisbon and Sheldon and
he operated a big wheat ranch at
Crosby, N. D., before leaving for
California two years ago.
After two years in California, Mr..
Sorenson is coming back to invest in
the Red River valley, believing that
no investment offers greater or safer
returns that North Dakota farm land.

curve and it slipped over the road
embankment and turned completely
over.

BLACK RUST
CONFINED TO
EASTERN N. D.
Considerable Damage Done 10
Wheat in Red River VAL
ley, Report States

"Black rust has done considerable
damage to the wheat crop in the Red
River valley, the damage being done
greatest in Cass county and the ter
ritory more or less contiguous, ac-
cording to the report Of the United
States bureau of agriculture made
public today Northward there was
much black rust in evidence, but not
so prevalent as southwark and west
ward, the report states.
"Out Of the Red River valley
there is less black stem rust and
westward the remaining one-third
of the state is almost totally free
from infection. A few western areas
actually require more moisture. Just
what the decline in state production
will amount to is most problematical
and will not be decided until more
time has elapsed. Harvest will be
general in southern counties late in
July or early in August, northward
harvest will be later. Durum varie-
ties Of wheat are remarkably free
from infection in all areas.
"There is much variation in the
rye crop. Little of it can be very
good, and much Of it is in very poor
condition. Rye harvest will be gen.
eral the week of July 10.
Flax varies from fields which are
already in the "ball" to many which
are only five or six inches above the
ground. The present condition is
favorable, although many fields are
exceedingly weedy.
"Haying is in full progress. es-
pecially the tame hay crops, and the
drier weather recently is highly
favorable.
"The abundance of moisture early
in the month was very damaging to
much of the corn, permitting the
weeds to over-grow the crop and pre-
venting cultivation.
Potatoes. which are largely con-
fined to the valley, have been suffer-
ing considerable from wet weather.
resulting in lack of cultivation, and
wesdy fields. Much of this crop was
drowned out.
livestock in general are in ex-
cellent condition.
'Dry and continued warm weather
is necessary for the proper develop
ment of North Dakota crops.
"There were numerous days be-
tween July and 13 which favored
rust development. July Is and l6
were more favorable for checking
this disease.

Of local citizens here today.
The would-be yeggs had fired l3
shots Of explosives to open the outer

from all points OF the five blocks of
the town with any kind of firearms
they could muster, and when the gang
inside the bank saw the growing size
of their audience they fled in auto
mobiles.
All telephone and telegraph wires
into the town were cut and there
were robber lookouts posted at the
five principal corners Of the town.
Several shots were fired by the
robbers and three men, members Of

ISLANDER SUIT
GETS $4,000

Chicago, July 18.-LR-Albert r.
Leland was awarded damages of S1O,-
600 last night by jury in his $4,000
slander suit against E. L. Hartig.
wealthy official of the Oak Park
church of which Leland formerly was
a parishioner.
The jury deliberated for little
more than three hours. The suit was
the outgrowth of suit for divorce
filed by Leland, in which the Rev.
Carl D. Case, pastor of the Oak Park
church, which all the principals at
tended, was named.
The divorce action came after Le-
lands wife, Mrs. Charlotte Leland,
said that DR.. Case and she had been
guilty of misconduct. Mrs. Leland
testified for her husband in the di.
vorce action.
During the investigation of the af-
fair by the church, Hartig. trustee

made an inquiry. Leland charged
that Hartig had referred to him as
the father of an illegitimate child.

BUREAUS ARE ABOLISHED
Bismarck Association of Com
merce to Help Burleigh
County Farmers

An estimated army Of 10000 men
will be required to harvest the
North Dakota grain crop, Joseph A..
Kitchen, commissioner Of agricul-
ture. declared today in announcing
plans for importation Of labor to
begin work Of cutting grain matured
by recent torrid weather, prevailing
in all parts Of the state.
The 1925 harvest will be handi-
capped by lack Of appropriation for
maintaining the department Of labor
which has regularly functioncd as a
subdivision Of the department Of
agriculture. At the last session.
the assembly neglected to pass the
$4,000 annual grant to the labor bu-
reau.
Falls on Civic Bodies
Work Of organizing the tempor-
ary labor force demanded during the
harvest season will fall to local civic
bodies. Communications went out
today to all county agents in the
state notifying them that the 1925
harvest force will have to be re-
cruited by private agencies.
"Although The department Of agri-
culture will cooperate with local
agencies in bringing harvest hands
into the state, it can be of no ma
terial assistance without an appro-
priation,' Commissioner Kitchen de-
clared.
Wages for harvest workers will
range from three to four dollars
day, accordingf to the harvest
scale prevailing in Kansas and
South Dakota. Indications are har-
vest wages will be slightly lower than
last year.
Confusion and disorganization
which may result from abolition of
the state labor bureau would work
hardship in a large section Of the
state not readily accessible to
itinerant workers.
A. of {. to Aid.

merce will handle the harvest labor
supply for Burleigh county. in the
absence Of state aid. II. p. Goddard,
