Of the warmth and comfort of Gods love His

"Death!' said Henry Bicycle What it this
plsce?"
1T is called The Valley of the Shadow Of
Death"
Henry Bicycle could not repress his look of
horror. He sank crouching upon the bench.
His limbs trembled
What frightens you?" asked Sharda gently
Look Is not the valley beautiful calm and
peaceful, lit by the glory of God? There is
nothing to be frightened at. Seel At the
further end there is no shadow Come I will
give you dream that shall lead you to the
end, that will smooth your frightened face
and calm your troubled spirit Come. She Will
carry you until you can walk alone"
Henry Bicycle saw his dream woman He saw
her face with the veil lifted, but it was strange
to him. She beckoned him. He thought
eagerly.
Il cannot" He rose unsteadly to his feet.
Il am not ready" He knew he would have
gone if she had been his love-
He began to beseech Sharda to show him
the way back. He felt the sweat bursting
through his pores, the stabbing pains return
ing to his back and loins. The form of the
woman vanished. The figure of Sharda blended
with a grey mist that film his eyes He
sensed a moist cloth drawn er his lips.
1T has been stiff fight urse" he heard

Back-to-Farm Movement Gr0zos

THE "backto-the- farm" movement has gained
considerable impetus of late so much so
that experts Of the Department OF Agriculture
have been busy collecting data and observing
the tendencies of those seeking a living in the
rural sections.
The investigators have found that in gen.
eral those going back to the farms can be rough
ly divided into three classes. The first class is
made up of those who left the farm to seek
living in the cities and have been forced. be-
cause of lack of employment, to seek refuge
back with relatives in the country helping in
the farm work in return for a living for their
families.
The second group is made up of those who
are trying their hand at farming as temporary
expedient and are picking up idle farms on a
snare basis wherever they can get owners to
give them an opportunity on that agreement
The third group is made up of those who are
taking to farming seriously, investing small
sums which they have been able to accumulate
IN the farms which they hope to make their
permanent homes Food shelter and fuel to be
had at first hand without cash outlay, seems at
tractive to those who find limited incomes or
no income at all presenting serious problems

Buy MetaLJ the Flask

RUYING metal by the flask seems strange ae
first thought but the metal in question,
mercury, is always In liquid form when handled
in commerce and is therefore sold in this man.
ner. last year there was q total of 24,750
fasks produced fn the United States an in
crease OF IS per cent over the previous wear.
The value, $2,fo2 900, was IS per cent under the
year before -

Molybdenum VitaI to Metal Industry

N the list of metals produced in this country,
both from weight and price point of view
molybdenum is of small consequence but in
view OF its importance to industry, this metal
Is OF real value and new uses are constantly
being found for it, The total production last
year was only about 5000 short tons with a
value roughly of a million and a half dollars
This in itself would hardly cause ripple on
the surface Of the economic waters of the coun-
try However should molybdenum be with
drawn from the various enterprises employing
it, the consequences would be felt almost uni
versally.
The Bureau of Mines, in a survey of the
molybdenum situation, reports that a new use
and one which will be Of service to large por-
ton of the people, whether they know it or not
has been discovered. A small percentage of the
metal is alloyed with cast iron and used for
brake drums on automobiles The advantage
that cast iron with molybdenum enjoys is that
no cracks develop in spite of repeated heating

There is the threat of much poverty and

inexperienced and ill-equipped persons seeking
to make living out of farming are sure Ia
learn that there is more to the work than break

gone far beyond the activities of a generation
or so ago, and a farmer following the old meth

OF molybdenum iron has brought about its
utilization in the manufacture of crate bar
molds annealing pots and similar articles.
The radio industry, too, has found use for
molybdenum, the sheet form as well as wire
being used. The wire Is used as a supporting
hlament In both radio and incandescent tubes.
The chemical laboratories also use molybdenum
as a reagent and catalyst, the latter one -tf

Anniversary Fete Is
Held at C0operstOwn

CooperstoWn, N. D.. July 8.-(P,-
Griggs countyS golden anniversary
celebration here Thursday marked an
epoch in the history of the county
and midwest North Dakota. More
than 1000 persons, perhaps the larg-
est assemblage in CooperStoWn's his
tory thronged the city from morning
to night to honor the hundreds of
pioneers, living and dead, who invad-
ed Griggs county so years ago.
Thousands milled through the city
streets to view the extensive and var
led exhibits typical of the country life
Of half century ago. Show windows
were crowded with displays. Griggs
county's first home was exhibited on
the courthouse lawn.
The days program had colorful
beginning with a mammoth parade
led by the Cooperstown band.
In the mile-long procession were
floats depicting the pioneer era-cov-
cred wagons, spinning wheels, reapers,
and other common helps of the prairie
pioneer.
Congressman Thomas A. Amlie of
Wisconsin, born on Griggs county
farm and a graduate of Cooperstown
high school, delivered the main ad-
dress of the day.

Rates from Southwest
Altered Voluntarily

A voluntary adjustment OF the car
load and less than carload freight
rates on practically all commodities
except petroleum and its products
between North Dakota and the SOUTH
west has been undertaken by the rail-
roads. according to the state railroad
commission.
Southwest states included in the
adjustment are Texas, Oklahoma
Arkansas, southern Missouri and
western Louisiana.
North Dakota railroads have
made a checkout of the new pro-
posed rates and have taken the mat
ter up with the southwestern carriers
for approval, the railroad commission
said. The action was taken follow
ing informal negotiations between
the railroads and the commission.
Many substantial reductions are
proposed, and, if made effective, will
place the rates to and from North
Dakota on the same basis as those of
the Twin Cities and other competing
areas. The commission estimated
the new rates would result in savings
of thousands Of dollars in freight
charges annually to North Dakota
shippers and receivers.
The state commission expects the
new rates to be published by early
fall.

separate bill and reported on favor
ably by the senate agriculture COM
mittee. Frazier proposed it Thurs
q : as a rider to the substitute of
Senator Couzens (Rep., Mich) for the

Frazier, Nye rep, N. d., Brook
hart (Rep., Iowa. and Norbeck plead
ed for adoption of the amendment.
Senator Norris rep, Neb), said he
wanted to help agriculture but could
not support the Frazier amendment,
largely because of its currency infla-
ton provision.
The measure provides that treasury
Bonds and currency notes be issued
to supply the necessary funds. Fra
zier estimated $500 100000 in new
currency would be needed.

PlasterbOard Rate
Adjustments Seen

Confidence has been expressed by
| officials of the North Dakota railroad
commission that complete adjust
ment will be made by the interstate
commerce commission on carload
rates on plasterboard from Fort
Dodge. Ia, and other points in North
Dakota.
Oral arguments on the case were
made in Washington before the I. C.
c., last month, at which time the state
commission urged reductions in rates
and additional privileges of mixed
carload shipments proposed by the
examiner be made effective. The rail-
roads urged that on account of their
general insufficiency of revenue that
no reductions be made.
The state commission seeks an adj
justment by which rates of North Da-
kota consumers will be no higher
mile for mile than those in immedi-
ately adjoining states, resulting in a
substantial reduction in North Da-
kota.
The present rates on plasterboard to
North Dakota were termed by the
state commission as exorbitant. The
examiner proposed reduction of SIG
per minimum carload to Minot and
Dickinson, $84 car to Williston and
Beach, $64 a car to Devils Lake and
$50 to Bismarck.

WOMEN VETS Will
SUPPORT ROOSEVELT
Vote to Ignore Party Lines and
Go Down Line With Advo-
cate of Repeal

New York, July 8.-(P)-After vot-
ing to support Franklin D. Roosevelt
for president, the national executive
committee of the women's organiza-
ton for national prohibition reform
drove ahead Friday to create Roose-
welt committees in every state"
Mrs. Charles H. Sabin, the Repub-
lican leader of the organization, said
Citizens Roosevelt-for- president
committees will be started in every
state. We are going to make a con-
centrated drive for members in the
SOUTH"
The women wet leaders, whose or
ganization claims million members
with divisions in AZ states, threshed
out their views in an all-day meeting
Thursday at the home of Mrs. Edward
S. Moore in Roslyn, Long Island. OF
the SO women present, 20 were deS-
cribed as Republicans.
The vote, including proxies and mail
ballots, stood 81 to 10 on the two
paragraphs of the resolution dealing
with the support of the presidential
candidate. The committee. however,
unanimously endorsed the Democratic
repeal plank, urged support for con-
gressional candidates committed to
repeal and suggested the members
back congressional candidates of their
own parties provided they favor re-
peal.
The paragraphs ON rtlich the
members spit were:
while the president of the United
States has no power to veto or change
a proposed constitutional amendment
he has through the prestige of his
high office the power to WELD direct
ly or indirectly great influence over
legislation.
I'VE therefore urge the members of
this organization, because they are
committed to the cause of repeal,
whether they be Republicans or
whether they be Democrats, to give
their support to the nominee of that
party which favors the repeal of the
18th amendment, Franklin Delano
Roosevelt"
