SlOpe Auto Show


Necessity for some kind of community
building to stage industrial shows and assist
in mechanical demonstrations which follow the
larger conventional is demonstrated by the in
ability of Bismarck to hold its own automo-
bile show this year. It is fortunate, however.
that in cooperation with the Mandan dealers,
. creditable show Of the Bismarck andan au-
tomobile dealers is to be held next week at the
State Training School gymnasium.
This show will afford prospective buyers an
excellent opportunity to view the new models
and to plan their purchases in advance Ex-
celent entertainment is to be provided and the
show will be worth while. A large attendance
from the Slope counties is expected.
Both cities have large group of progressive
dealers and the hearty cooperation evidenced
between the Twins Of the Slope guarantees an
excellent showing Of the latest in automobiles
and accessories.
This joint effort should receive the heartiest
support of the people on both sides of the Mis-
souri,. It is the first intercity auto show and
reflects the kind of spirit that means greater
growth for both cities; for where one pros
pers, so does the other.
Get behind the Twin City Auto Show next
week.

EATING OF TEE GREENS


Our Irish brothers will probably
be singing tomorrow about the
wearing Of the Green" but all Of
our health writer's are singing q
sons every day about the seating
OF the green's"
What change we have observed
J., eating habits during the past
few years!
While green vegetables were used
to . limited degree by the ancients,
it is only within the past ten years
that the leafy green vegetables
have taken their proper place on
the modern dining table. It is true
the doctors of ancient Greece and
Rome did all they could to teach
the value of the use Of green vege-
tables. Hippocrates found cabbage
Of great value in his medical prac-
tice, and Cato said that he owed
to it the preservation Of his whole
family from the plague. Galen said
he knew no better remedy for wake
fulness than a plentiful supply Of
lettuce eaten just efore retiring.
Musa also esteemed lettuce highly
in the treatment Of hypochondria.
This watery green vegetable was
served by the Greeks and Romans
at many of their meals. Cabbage
was highly esteemed by the Greeks
and Romans who carried this vege-
table into Gaul and Britain.
These physicians and warriors
did not of course know about the
mysterious vitamins but they did
kno.7 that the green vegetables
contained certain vital principles
which are needed by the body. From
that time until the beginning of the
Goth century there were few de.
velopments in the growing of non
starchy vegetables, but their value
has been rapidly appreciated dur
ing = is century, and especially in
the past decade. Where formerly
grocers during the winter carried
only cabbage, turnips, parsnips and
beets, they now decorate their dis
play spaces in the front Of their
stores with lettuce, celery, spinach,
egg plants, cucumbers, and the
smaller squashes.
The health magazines have con-
tributed in a large measure toward
this increase in the use of leafy
green vegetables. Research labora-
taries have added their share in edu-
eating the public in the use of those
foods containing the vitamins and
organic minerals. Thousands OF
white rats and mice have been ex-
perimented upon to prove that
dcvitalized foods are unhealthful
and that the green vegetables are in
dispensable and perhaps the most
valuable of all Of our foods.
Besides using the fresh vege-
tables, the masses who have been
educated to the use of al kinds of
vegetables have found that those
put up in cans are equally rs nutri-
tious and appetizing as the fresh
vegetables. As long as cooked
vegetables are used it is just as
we'll for them to be cooked in the

The Mail on Your Desk

The average American wrote la letters and
spent S469 for postage, in 1927 That is a little
more than two week. The nation used more
than % billion stamps or items of stamped
paper, such as postcards and stamped envel-
opes.
That is vast volume of mail, but its very
vastness is one big reason why this is uni
ted country. The man in Maine writes to his
friend in Georgia, and the woman in Minnesota
writes to her sister in New Mexico, and thus
between all sections intimate news of the
viewpoints and aspirations and troubles Of all
flows, and mutual understanding results.
1t is the life Of business. 1t keeps goods
produced in any one locality speeding to AL.
other locality which needs them.
Everything about it is merely additional
proof that the mail service is one thing which
should and must be at the highest state of ef-
ficiency.

Veteran Court Clerk
to Seek Reelection

Yes, Charles Fisher, veteran clerk
Of court in Burleigh county, will be
candidate for reelection this year.
Although the omission Of his name
from . recently published list Of
present county officers who would
seek reelection was entirely unin-
territorial, the error is regretted and
the Tribune hastens to state that
Mr.. Fisher will again seek favor at
the hands Of the voters at the June
primary.
Mr.. Fisher has held his present
office continuously since 1909, and
has had little trouble in winning out
1T each election over HIS opponents.
In fact the last two elections have
found him without an opponent,
since anyone else who has had long,
ings to hold county office has APP
parently decided that Mr.. Fisher
could not be beaten.

sent many back to the farm and agricultural
troubles are driving the farmers out of the
mountain states.
There is no cause for concern in these fuc-
tuations in farm population. There are still
27,699, 900 people on the farm and the country
is suffering from surplus of farm products
rather than from shortage Of them. Wher-
ever and whenever farmers are making money
there is no dearth of dirt farmers. If world con-
sumption demanded it, the idle farms would be
tenanted. Overproduction, machinery and low
wages have driven farm labor to the industrial
centers.

Fewer Farmers


Those who have seen cause for alarm in the
farm EXODUS of the last decade should find
Some comfort and reinsurance in the results
Of the 1927 survey Of the United States depart
ment of agriculture covering rural and urban
population.
Last year 1,97S,0o0 persons abandoned the
farm for town and city life. In the correspond
ing period 1,374,000 persons deserted the city
for the country. The net movement away
from the farm was therefore 100000, but be-
cause Of the low death rate and high birth rate
IN the country the farm population dropped
only $4,000. This latter figure seems low
compared with the 1926 decrease Of $4,000
and the 1925 drop Of 441,000.
.. In only two sections did the farm population
increase last year. They were the South At
lantic and East South Central States. Those
increases are probably accounted for by the
growing demand for Southern fruits and other
food products and an influx Of northerners
seeking permanent residence in warmer
Climes
OF the other sections the New England
St:tes showed the least decrease in farm popu-
lation and the mountain states, which include
several western states showed the greatest
drop New England's industrial troubles have

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Question: x. Y. z. writes: II
have had an abscessed tooth for two
years. That part which shows il
quite sound, hence hesitate to part
with it, as it is ip a prominent posi-.
ton. There is a hard lump on the
gum at the root Of the tooth which
used to break every little while, but
has not done 50 now for some
time. l would be very glad II you
would advise me whether you think
the orange juice fast would dis
persc the abscess and do away with
the necessity Of having the tooth
extracted"
Answer: The abscess will doubt
less absorb if you continue to fast
long enough, but it will surely return
in a short time due to the necrosis
and the decayed condition at the end
Of the root canal. It is best for you
to make up your mind to have the
tooth extracted, as well as any other
dead teeth in your mouth, II You
have the slightest kind of an ab.
scess.
Question: Mrs. X. asks: ''What
is meant by the term sroughage' in
connection with food? Also, what
foods contain starch?"
Answer: The term "roughage"
usually refers to the non-starchy
vegetables and sometimes to whole
grain foods. Starchy foods may be
remembered easily in this way:
Any grains, or any foods made
from the flour from grains, are
starchy foods. Potatoes and Hub.
bard squash are the only vegetables
which are highly starchy.
Question: Mint. asks: "What
is zymosis? And what part Of the
body does it affect?"
Answer: Zvmosis simply means
q kind Of self-poisoning or auto
intoxication which may affect all
parts of the body. It is not q spe-
cific disease located in any one
part, but a general condition, the
same as autotoyemia.

Fear of the Unknown

Every time the leviathan of the air, the Los
Angeles, flies low over the land there follow
reports of runaway beasts of burden, barnyard
panics and dairy herds sent galloping across
fields.
Were the huge dirigible to suddenly appear
on the horizon of some wilderness peopled by
uncivized tribes the terror Of those who be-
held it would not be dissimilar to that of the
dumb animals in this civilized land. There are
mountaineers and prairie rats in this country
WHO would be frightened by the awe-inspiring
sight.
Man and beast alike fear the unknown and
the unseen. Ignorance and superstition are as
inseparable as Siamese twins-you cannot sep
arate them without killing both.
It was but few centuries ago that the most
learned of men were struck with terror by
every strange constellation, total eclipse Of
the sun and an earth shudder. Had they UNI
derstood that all were due to natural causes
they would not have been afraid.
How wide Is the margin of difference be-.
tween the superstitious fears Of the savage or
the instructive fears of the animal and the fear
Of new ideas which possesses many supposedly
intelligent men and women? Some people are
easily set to shaking like q quake by some
thought that is strange to them and by de-
NAL of some old thought they inherited from
