A Notable Victory

minneapolis Tripune)
Last week saw some substantial agricultural increases
voted into the tariff bill by the senate.
OF special importance to Minnesota and the two Da-
kotas was the increase given sweet clover seed.
The present rate on sweet clover seed is 2 cents a
pound. Northwest agricultural economists felt that a
rate Of 4 cents was necessary If the home market pledge
was to be fulfilled.
And the rate now written into the tariff bill is 4 cents.
Has the American farmer had full command of the
American market for sweet clover seed in the past?
No; from between 100000 to 100000 pounds have
been flowing In from Canada.
Has this competition adversely affected the American
price?
Yes.
Will the new rate shut out the Canadian competition?
Our Northwest agricultural economists believe so.
How much will the new rate add to the annual farm
income OF Minnesota and the two DakotaS?
Apparently about 100000 or even more.

QUESTIONS AND "
Rhannnatllrrfs

Question: Mrs. q. 8. asks: "What
Is the difference between ~articular
rheumatism and arthritis? Is arth-
ritis Of the spine considered more
dangerous than any other Joints in
the hody?"
Answer: All forms Of rheumatism
are caused by practically the same
thing - intestinal poisoning. The
names Of the different types vary ac-
|cording to the region In which the
rheumatism locates. Arthitis Of the
spine is n Of the most serious forms
OF rheumatism, and, II the patient Il.
nally becomes unable to move about
he therefore becomes weaker day by
day, as every moment Of the spine is
painful and induces the patient to
stay in n position to avoid the dis
comfort. It Is sometimes necessary
to keep the spine ir1movable for sew
eral months, in which event the irri-
tated vertebrae join together.
Tomatoes
Question: Mrs. @. A. 8. asks: "Are
tomatoes q fruit or q vegetable and
may they be eaten with genuine
wholewheat bread or biscuits, and
may q little honey ana cream be used
as q dressing on lettuce and eaten
with wholewheat products?"
Answer: Tomatoes must be consid.
cred an acid fruit and should not be .
used with bread OF biscuits. It IL bet
ter not to use honey or other sweet
enings with starchy food, but cream
may be used with any kind a. veget-
ables or with wholewheat products.
i 8 Lemon Juice
Question: Mrs. A. asks: 'sWill lem.
on juice on the face every night tend
to dry the skin?"
Answer: Lemon Juice added to the
water in which the face Is washed
tends to prevent dryness Of the skin
because the acid Of lemon counter
acts the alkau which Is found in 80
much Of the common hydrant wa
Ter. It Is often advisable to also add
q few drops Of lemon juice to the va
ter in which the hair Is washed.

Doctors Opposed Bathtubs

1KaNSaS City STAR
Bathtubs. back in the SOS and SOS, were bitterly OPP
posed by the medical profession on the ground that use
Of them led to pneumonia. In 1853 the Philadelphia COM
mon council considered an ordinance ~forbidding the use
Of batntubs during the winter months, and it failed to
pass by only two votes.
In 1845 Boston passed an ordinance f~orbidding bath
ing In 2 tub. without . medical order, but it never was
enforced, and in 1852 it was repealed. BY 1850, despite
the hostility Of the physicians, there was q bathtub in
every big New York hotel, and some boosted two and
even three.

the way Is cleared for the Of a memorial

where he gave aviation one Of its greatest romances Of
courage and daring and tragedy.
North Dakota owes 1t to such intrepid sons to write
their deeds and memories into the traditions and sagas
which fire the Imagination and spirit OF q people. Their
examples are great inspirations to the racial and civic
morale. North Dakota can not have too many such
heroes to stir its pride in itself, to point the way Of spen-

craven stone or lasting bronze. That is why the Eielson
memorial undertaking now should be pressed to COM

freshly and distinctly In the minds and hearts Of his

can read in between the lines are more impressive than
the ones that are printed.
A short time ago the papers printed q very brief dis

It told how . man and . woman, 90 years old, re-
married one another after having been divorced for 20
years. They had had, . generation ago. . fairly long
married life; then something happened and they broke up
their home. But now, 10 years after their separation. they
came together again, were remarked, and went to the
husbands farm to live out the remainder Of their lives.

General williams had a wealth Of memories ac-

he was innately modest and it was with difficulty that
he could be led into narration Of his experiences and his

prairies, the creation Of an empire Of wheat and Of the

A Transcontinental Railroad

II NdIITOdu
If the Van Sweringens succeed in tying up q collection
OF separate railroads into one great transcontinental
system a very old dream Of railroad builders will be con-
Summated.
Present indications are that that is just what these
energetic brothers have in mind. One newspaper sketches
their proposed grouping as follows:
The Lackawanna, from New York to Buffalo; the
Nickel Plate, from Buffalo to st. Louis: the Missouri Pa
cific thence to Pueblo, Colo; the Denver, Rio Grande &
Western from Pueblo to Salt Lake City, and the West
ern Pacific thence to San Francisco.
OF course, there is no telling what the Interstate Com
merce commission may say to all of this. But the project
is fascinating, just the same. Many men have tried to
weld together one great railroad system reaching from
the Atlantic to the Pacific coast. It will be interesting to
see If the Van sweringens are to be the ones who will
make the dream q reality.
