Contains Grave Registry
In addition to the service records
of each individual the volumes con-
tain a registry of all graves Of World
War men. If buried in France the
place and number Of the grave is
given; If buried in the United States
the place Is designated.
Listed among the men who served
from North Dakota are two who won
congressional medals OF honor for
conspicuous bravery and distinguish
ed service and many who were given
distinguished service and distinguish
ed Navy crosses for bravery. Every
citation given to q North Dakota SOL
der, sailor or marine in connection
with his war service Is listed.
Occupying more space In the
volumes than the record Of any other
man is that Of Evan Elias Lewis, a
regular army officer who was born
in Dakota Territory in 1885, grad
uated from West Point and finished
the war as colonel. Citations CIV
en- him show that he was the kind Of
army man one reads about, advance
Ing to the charge at the head Of his
troops, inspiring his men to stand
firm In the face Of severe attack and
winning three citations as well as nu-
rnerous decorations from his own and
foreign governments.
. The volumes have been sent to
every county Judge In the state, since
they comprise valuable records In
connection with the probation Of
estates and similar work which coun-
ty judges are required to handle.
Every post OF the American Legion
has been given volume as has every
government hospital and public libra
~. Many newspapers also have
been given copies for their use and
set has been sent to the congress
sional library.
North Dakota Is the sixth state to
issue such publication and had the
experience OF other states to serve
as guide. For this reason the North
Dakota work Is regarded as the most
complete Of its kind in existence.

ect for utilization Of North Dakota
Ignite in fertilizer manufacture is in
cluded In program for aiding north
west agriculture through scientific
research, developed by a University Of
Minnesota faculty committee.
Professor L. H. Reyerson of the uni
versity chemistry school heads the
group, which presented the program
to President L. D. Coffman.
Production Of synthetic ammonia
from North Dakota Ignite, combined
with Montana phosphate, would make
available "the finest of fertilizers for
generations to come" DR.. Reyerson
said.
Concerning the iced for abundant
and cheap fertilizer, which he believes
Ignite could provide through chem
istry, he asserted:
Large areas in western Minnesota
and the Dakotas now are definitely In
need Of phosphate fertilizer. Other
areas need small amounts Of other
chemical elements in order to keep up
or restore fertilizer to the soil. The
situation Is acute in certain regions.
Scientific investigations Of Ignite
largely have concerned themselves
with its preparation and use as q fuel.
Very little, If anything, has been done
to determine its usefulness as basic
material in the development Of Z ma.
jor chemical industry In this region
Chemical researches on Ignite will,
beyond much doubt, be able to show
that from this source the farmers Of
the northwest may be assured Of nj

They have right, especially in Indiana, to feel
that they have been betrayed inasmuch as they
have been used for years to put into public Office
the Watsons and his like.
They have been used to cloak the Ku-Klux when
1t fourshed and to act the shock troops for every
special privilege which has controlled state and ma
tional government
They have permitted their faith in Republican
dryness to lead them into the camp of the licensed
plunderers and they are responsible, finally, for
much of the economic disaster that has through
the control of government by the big interests.
No wonder they feel disguised and betrayed
1t is probably a fine thing that they propose

Just Every Day Sense
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

ITO go from the city to Missouri farm is like be-
4 ing transported into different world. After the
clang and clatter what peacel After the hot pave
ments, what sweet, strong, earthly odors!
After so many useless activities, how simple and
fine appears work done in the country, where men
and women are engaged only in constructive labors
tending life.
The farmers talk about the depression but they
are ploWlng their corn this spring just as they did
last, and the women are picking and canning their
berries and eold-packing vegetables and every day
hundreds of baby chickens emerge from warm incu-
bators.
The calves and pigs are just as fat and lively as

nURNG July and August, the produce men prob
IL ably will not buy any eggs at ALL since the big
city houses overstocked with cold storage supplies
that must be disposed Of.
One can't help being staggered by the stupidity of
our complicated machinery of civilization The facts
are simple. Undernourished children IN the cities

way we can figure out to get the surplus to the people
I'VE have many problems to solve, but it seems to
me the chief one now is to distribute the food of

for lack of it.
Never before has such a condition existed in a
nation whose facilities for transportation are as great
as ours. There is no excuse for it existing now.
We have plenty of food. We have trucks and
railroad trains and airplanes Apparently the only
tnng we lack for the distribution problem Is plain
horse sense.

Scientifically, this little animal is
known as climax lectularius, which
Classics it as a bug that is found

Under some circumstances. certain
insects always move toward a source
of heat; under other circumstances.
insects move away from heat.
1t has been found, for instance,
that insects are not stimulated to
bite by the odor of blood or the
odor of perspiration, but by the
heat coming from the body.
Therefore, DR.. Rivnay tested the
bedbug with particular reference
to such stimulation, trying it out
on the odor of blood, the odor of
various liquids, of bile, of skin, of
perspiration and of various other
substances.

GONE hold that it is very rude
- and wrong for galleries to boo
at political convention. I don't
think so. 1t is fiction to pretend
that the non delegate spectators are
guests privileged to be present only
through the generous courtesy of
the party's representatives.
The function of these outsiders is
spiritual as we'll as material. Not
only do they help defray expenses
by purchasing tickets, but they are

ton and the very core of those

out over the air and serve to con-
vince listening America that all is

These unpaid servants of the
party cause sit faithfully through
long hours and duly applaud the
names of Jefferson and jackson.
They clap hands when told that Joe
Doakes or William Gish grew up in

himself for the long fight against
the special interests.

Have Right to Boo

A ND SO, I say, they have every
IA right to boo upon occasion, to
preserve a balanced ration. The hui
man spirit, like the human body, de-
mands its proper allowance of
citric acid. There is such a thing
as mental beri-beri, which is not to
be avoided without some tot of lime
or lemon.
If the galleries at the Chicago
convention had failed to hiss Will
liam Gibbs McAdoo on the night of
the great surrender, there would
have been in that fair city dam
gerous epidemic of bile poisoning.
And Suppressed bile poisoning, at
chat, which is the worst kind. But
for the highly effective performance
of the paying guests, would have
taken on the business of booing all
by myself.
1t never has been my privilege to
watch a more noXiouS spectacle
than Mr.. McAdoo made of himself,
nor freer and fuller recognition of
that fact. Governor Franklin D.
Roosevelt may have many excellent

to find organs of taste in the mouth
cavity of the insect. The insects
refuse to drink pure water, chicken
broth or sugar solutions; in fact,
they Shun water
Bugs love darkness rather than
light and prefer to be in contact
with a rough surface.
Finally experiments were made
with heat, and it was found that
heat is the important factor in
stimulating the bug to obtain food.
1t detects heat slowly and begins
to go in that direction in about
one and a half minutes. Extreme
heat, however, repels the animal.
The bug has a sense of smell, but
reacts only when very close to the
odoriferous substance. The bug
apparently discriminates between
different foods by its taste.
The reason the bugs group to-
gether is because they like to be in
contact with some rough object and
in general away from the light.

Flowers for the Dead

To any one who finds national political conventions
interesting, there occasionally must come-the elan-
choy thought that the great party heroesthe patron
saints, so to speak, whose names always must be
mentioned reyerently in the keynote addresses-get
whole lot devotion from their parties after they
are dead than while they are alive
Each party has its great heroes and each party
always drags out their images at it's conventions
The Republicans, Of course, specialize in Abraham
Lincoln; and lately they have begun to enshrine
Theodore Roosevelt in an adjacent niche
The Democrats start with Thomas Jefferson.
pause to bend the knee before the figure of Andrew
jackson, and then drop the rest of their wreaths at
the feet of Woodrow Wilson
But good many of those men got something less
than complete devotion from their followers during
life.
Lincoln for example is a pedestal now But
the dawn OF 1865 found his party bitterly divided
large section almost incredibly hostile to him
If Booth had not killed him, Lincoln and not
Johnson would have felt the wrath of the radicals
in the late sixties; his attempts to save the south
from the horrors Of the reconstruction period would
have brought to him the blind hostility of that Sec
ton of his party which ultimately tried to throw john
son out of Office.
And Wilson, before his public career ended. sat at
the head of a divided party. Not all of the votes
that killed the treaty of Versailles in the United
States senate came from Republicans; and in the
campaign of 1920 there plenty of party leaders
who found it nexpedient to do battle for WiISonian
doctrines.
Not until after his death did his party really en-
shrine him.
The moral of this? Perhaps there isn't any-lln-
less it is that the great party leaders always are
fighters and that the battles they start can not be
forgotten until the leaders themselves are in their
graves.

Has Better Platform

am for Roosevelt. Whatever his
Il faults may be, he is as good a
man as Hoover and is running on
a far better platform. Those who
are shaping Democratic policy have
shown a clearer understanding of
this countrys condition and a high
er degree of courage in proposing
remedies for it than those who are
shaping Republican policy.
The attitude of the Republican
convention was that of a whipped,
bewildered, bossed aggregation. The
clock-like efficiency, for which it
has been praised, bespoke nothing
so much as lack of courage and
initiative.
In this respect, it was a faithful
reflection of the administration it
Endorsed. It's verbose straddling
came as an appropriate epilogue to
three years of innocuous advice.

Service to Nation

WITHOUT psychoanalyzing its
w motives, the Democratic
party must be given credit for
meeting the situation with candor
and boldneSS.
In this particular, it not only has
re-eStablished itself as a virile DO
litical force, but has rendered a. dis
tinct service to millions of perplexed,
discouraged people.
Roosevelt's airplane flight to Chi
cago, climaxed by an impromptu,
breezy speech of acceptance, shows
that he caught the spirit of his
party'S action and his country's
need.
Here we have promise, at least,
that efforts will be made to do
something, which is more than we
have had from the Hoover admins
tration since 1929.

seemed quite unaware of the fact
that the canary feathers in his
whiskers were all too evident.

the galleries, as the gentleman
talked of party harmony and the
welfare of his beloved country.
To be sure, it never can be said
against Mr.. McAdoo that he is a
lost leader who sold out for ribbon
to wear in his hair. The pockets
of the man bulged with the pledges
and promises of the opposition.
incidentally, he had made room
for this argoSy of personal advan-
tages by very quickly tossing into
the gutter his own pledges and his
own promises.
Indeed, as the man turned from
side to side to cast broad and ma
licious beam, you could hear the
clank of newly minted political
preferment in his pockets. Frank
lin D. Roosevelt will let him be sec
rotary of state if things turn out
according to the schedule.
Of course, Governor Roosevelt has
been known to change his mind. But
William Randolph Hearst has prom
ised to have McAdoo out to dinner
some night, and he can count on
that.

NEW YORK, July 5.-With con-

Let us keep that simple fact
clearly in mind.
Along with countless others, this
writer would have preferred to see
Alfred E. Smith get the Democratic
nomination, but that has little to
do with the case now.
The issue Of Smith versus Roose-
welt has given place to the issue Of
Roosevelt versus Hoover.
1t is not wholly, or even largely,
an issue of personal attributes.
Both men are creatures of the
crowd back of them, instruments
of a more or less fixed tradition.
This was illustrated wildly by the
two conventions. Hoover will have
to pussyfoot, because that is what
the Republican platform calls for.
Roosevelt must assume a holder
role, because that is what the
Democratic party has ordered.

TN science there is recognized a

means the tendency of an organism

1t is >tropism that makes a plant

1t occurred to DR.. Ezekiel Rivnay

He tries to answer the questions
as to what stimuli attract the bed

the bedbug discriminates between
