NEW YORK, June 18.-The
North American Newspaper Al
lance today announced
through the United Press that
word had been received from
Kings Bay, Spitzbergen, that
the explorer Roald Amundsen
and his party have returned
safely from their Polar fight.
Information of the explorers safe
ty was contained In a message
signed by himself and members Of
his party.
A London dispatch says the Cen
trail News Oslo correspondent said a
message received there declared
Amundsen was safe.
In two specially built airplanes,
Roald Amundsen and his compan-
ions on this most daring OF attempts
to explore the region around the
North Pole, flew from Kings Bay,
Spitzbergen, four weeks ago, this
afternoon.
The plane was to return within
thirty-six hours. Amundsen hoped
to land at or near the pole, spend
six hours making observations and
return to the base where his staunch
little ships, the Farm and the
Hobby, were waiting.
Scientists Never Despiared
While the world waited for word
from the north. days and finally
weeks passed without any message
from Amundsen. Scientists through
out the world gave their opinions as
to the probable safety OF the ex-
pedition, some believing them safe,
other maintaining the explorers
must be lost. Close friends and

pedition in this country, refused to

Ellsworth and Amundsen both

Amundsen's successful return
from his polar flight will mean
much to the Norwegian explorer,

WASHINGTON, June 49,
Robert Marion La Toilette is
dead.
Fighting Bob," for twenty
years United States Senator
from Wisconsin, staunch de-
fender of what he believed was
the popular will, and independ-
ent candidate for President last
year, passed on at his home
here at l :21 p. m. today.
A gradual weakening of the heart
muscles induced by a siege of
bronchial asthma brought the end.
He was seventy years old last Sun
day.
For the last two weeks he had
been confined to his bed with a cold
which he contracted during recent
sudden weather changes here. Pass
ing his seventieth birthday Sunday
it seemed that he might be able to
throw off the attack, but his frail
physique had been so weakened by
continuous Illnesses for the last two
years, he soon afterward took a turn
for the worse.
His family had been forwarned by
attending physicians who could do
little to fight off the combined at
tack of age and disease.
Knew End War Near
Death came peacefully and quietly
with his wife and children at the bed
side.
La Toilette lapsed into uncon-
sciousness about half an hour be-
fore his death. but just a moment
to rouse himself. It seemed to
those Of his family around his death
bed is If he were trying to say
something-communicate some last
message or ask for something or
some one.
The effort proved fruiltess. Too
little 'trength was left in the body
to voice the words.
That the Senator knew death was
upon him at least two weeks ago
was disclosed by one of his family
today.
Small children were playing
noisily under his window as he lay
in bed with a cold that ultimately
brought his death.
"a life is a wonderful thing. I'd
like to begin it all over again." he
said, "but I think 1 have earned
a long needed vacation"
Knew How to Fight
La Toilette came from a stock
that knew what fighting was.
Known as Fighting Bob" all over
the United States, he deserved his
title.
La Follette's great grandfather
was a soldier in the Revolution while
his grandfather Jesse La Toilette
was one of the strong-hearted
pioneers that settled Kentucky when
Indian attacks were not infrequent.
His grandfather was a neighbor OF
the Lincoln's when Abraham Lin
coin was born In 1909. La Follette's
father was a pioneer of Wisconsin
moving with his wife and several
brothers there in 1851. long before
railroads were built in the State.

We are now beginning to farm sci

All miiicrS and grain people and some

want to say that without our hard

People who arc accustomed to eat 4

The American people want the best
and we people in the hard spring
wheat producing section have been Il
little negligent in not advertising
our commodity for what it is, so that
people might know where they could
get the best.
In connection with the raising Of Il
protein wheat. the alfalfa and sweet
clover also have helped US into new
line of divcrSificati 0n-that Of honey.
You might think it strange that IN
this Northern climate bees would DO
we'll and that they would produce
more honey per hive than in any 9TH

that they would winter out OF doors,
but it is being done and the bee peo-
pie of this state are doing wonder

bees This year we have $4,000 hives
and the estimated production for
1924 was 100000 pounds. The aver

Further, in connection with this al
falfa and sweet clover, the farmers,
of necessity, have mad to have hogs

 To the hard coal diggers, the sus- pension of mining because of the dis agreement over the provisions of new wage contract, means a real vacation but without pay.
 Anticipating that there would be period of idleness lasting from a month to six weeks or more. the miners had their bins filled with fuel before September 1 and are not worried as to how they will keep warm when the cool weather sets in, Most of them live in company houses" near the collieries.
 Veteran miners declare that they are already feeling the good effects of their rest and freedom from air in the underground workings in many ot which gaseous conditions prevail.
 Asthma is the big enemy of the miners, This IS brought on, 1t is claimed, by poor air, in which they labor for years, Rheumatism is am other ailment to which they are sub feet on account of the wet cham bers in which they work.
 Pointing to some mules basking in the sunshine of nearby stable yard, a miner remarked that even the animals showed the benefits Of the open air.
 Look at the mules when they break down from long service in the mines" he declared, "They give them fresh air treatment and they soon recover their strength. So also with the men"
 The only difference, another miner remarked, was that the mule got his pasture gratis but the miner had to
