10. at Fargo on m application by the
railroads to discontinue the present
practice Of stopping carload ship
ments Of fresh fruit, melons and veg
etables for unloading 1t moro than

II has been the practice IN some
localities, according to the employees
Of the State Railroad board, for mcr-
chants in two Or more towns on the
same railroad line to Join In purchas-
ing q carload Of fruit or other pro-
duce. In many cases these trausac-
tions were handled BY farmers or
other elevators for the benefit Of
their patrons.
The charge made by the railroad
was $3.50 per stop for each car. Pro-
posal to discontinue the practice
brought q protest and the State Rail-
road board has asked elevator officers

lege Is used In North Dakota.

perform some spectacular feat to be
a hero. But publicity is far from
being an essential of heroism. In
stead of short period of sacrifice or
self-denial, these men gave their all
"a whole lifetime-to their chosen
task. What more does true heroism
require?
1T has been said "a great man is
he that shall lay down his life for
his friend" In the light of this state
ment, we find that these men are great.
The world may be Indifferent, but
they regard it as their friend, and in
seeking it's betterment they sacrifice
their lives.
1.-The comfort and convenience of
our lives is due to the unceasing work
of these men. Our speed in getting
from place to place, our freedom from
drudgery, our methods of saving lives
through our knowledge of disease, all
of these things and many more which
we think so essential, are the results
of years of study and research on the
part OF these men. The more we
think about our debt to them, the more
clearly we realize their greatness.
Science is the dominant influence
in the world today, and the true
heroes of the day are the men of
science"
