FARGO

The Fargo Agricultural School
located at Fargo, has done more
hard work in the past two years
because of the increased enroll
ment of students and the high
cost of materials. The school has
800 acres of land in its possession
and attempts to cultivate about $50
acres. For two or three years the
long droughts that usually come
IN the summer months have de-
Perforated the production of food
and feed. Despite these set backs
the school has been able TO in
crease the salaries of its teachers,
meet its obligations, and at the
same time give one-third of its
students scholarships to enable
them TO stay in school.
The Fargo Agricultural Schools
program is to give its students
practical education and to mako

little income to attend school

Electricity on EARNS

On farms there are many practi-
cal uses of electricity for saving
time and labor, for reducing oper-
ating costs and increasing farm in
come. Electricity provides light and
heat and power for many purposes,
including refrigeration and the
pumping of water. One kilowatt
hour will pump 1000 gallons of wa
ter from the average farm well. It
win milk 80 cows, heat S gallons
of water, grind 100 bushels of grain,
run a tool grinder for 4 hours, shell
80 bushels of corn, cool 10 gallons
of milk, or cut ton of ensilage and
elevate it into a 3O-foot silo. Run
ming water in the house brings
better sanitation and saves many
steps. Refrigeration preserves food
and makes better nutrition posi-
BILE. The electric washer and the
electric iron make the family laun-
dry less of chore. The radio keeps
the farm family in touch with the
rest of the nation and the world.
Eye-sight is preserved by good
lighting.

Cool Room

There are several tricks of fur
nishing which will help the family
to forget that the mercury is
bubbling up around a hundred. II
possible, move every bit of unnec-
essary furniture out of the room. II
you have well-finished floors, you
may wish to roll up the rug and use
some inexpensive grass mats. Or
perhaps you are one Of the fortunate
persons who can move to the porch.
Emphasis on cool colors - the
blues and green's - helps to create
the right illusion. Take down the
heavy, dark draperies and put a
temporary cool tint in your window
curtains. An excellent way to get
around the prickly woolens on your
overstuffed furniture and at the
same time carry out your soothing
color scheme is to sipcover these
pieces.

Wash Water

Estimates say that most wash
days mean a consumption of about
SO gallons of mixed hot and cold
water. If an automatic washer, in
stead of the conventional washer,
is used the water consumption is
reduced to about 80 gallons of mixed
hot and cold water. The greater per
cent Of this washday water must be
hot. In fact, good results cannot
be obtained from automatic wash
ers unless the temperature of the
water is 40 to 145 degrees F. for
the first washing. This is too hot
if the user has to get her hands
into the water, and washing in the
ordinary washer is done with hot
water at temperature of about LIS
degrees +.

Strong New Rot-PrOof
Cotton Fabric Developed

A cotton fabric with the strength
and appearance Of ordinary cotton
plus the ability to resist the attack
of reproducing heterogeneous
has recently been developed. It is
partially acetylated cotton which is
somewhat related to rayon made by
the acetate process.
In contrast to the use of the usual
preservative finishes on cotton,
this new process does not cause dis
celebration of the fabric. It does
not produce an odor or cause the
fabric to be sticky, and it does not
make the fabric toxic, great ad-
vantage where it is used for food
sacks.
This new development promises to
be useful in at least two general
fields which consume large amounts
OF cotton. First, the modified cot
ton cloth, yarn and sewing thread
should be satisfactory for making
clothing that will not mildew; tents
and awnings that will not rot in
damp climates, and fish nets that
will not rot if put away wet. 1t
also is promising for use in making
rot resistant bags for the packag-
ing of fruits, vegetables and other
food products.

Rules Listed for
Treating Heat Victims

Heat exhaustion and sunstroke
are two entirely different things, al.
though both may seem to result one
from the other. With heat exhaus-
uon the patients skin is cold and
clammy-while with sunstroke, the
skin Is hot and dry. A simple rule
may serve as a guide and avoid
confusion regarding the treatment.
Briefly it is this: If the patient is
cold, make him warm; if he is hot,
make him cool.
The following measures will help
prevent heat exhaustion among farm
workers: Drink cool water and
lemon or other citrus fruit juices,
avoiding alcohol and ice water. Eat
vegetables and light, easily digest
ed foods. Wear light, loose clothing;
avoid over fatigue; battle daily;
get plenty of sleep. Replace body
salt lost through perspiration by
sailing food, drinking salt in water,
or by taking salt tablets-about
eight l0-grain tablets daily.
Sunstroke results from prolonged
exposure to the rays of the sun.
Consequently it is advisable to
keep the head covered with a broad
brimmed hat and the body, includ-
ing arms and legs covered with
light loose-htting, comfortable cloth
ing. In sunstroke ceases move the
patient to cool, shady spot, remove
the clothing and then place him on
his back with head and shoulders
raised. Apply ice cold cloths to the
head and cool the body gradually
with cool bath. Call doctor as
soon as possible and administer cool
drinks (not cold) if the patient is

Armstrong, R., Kalispell chairman
OF the committee, who did not par
ticipate, in the inquiry.
Armstrong said the investigation
was aimed at tracking down ru-
mors concerning operations of the
liquor system" It did. Liquor
J. A. Buley said
rumors of "bootlegged stamps run
ming loose" had always proved to
be groundless upon investigation. I
lie also explained that distribution (
of liquor in Montana was on a per-
centage scale on the basis of guam
titles used in former years, which
gave taVerns go per cent, and left
40 per cent of all liquor that comes
into Montana for sale to the pub
lie.
AS for high prices, Buley de-
dared, the control board merely
marked up all whiskey So per cent,
including excise tax, and if prices
seemed higher, it was because dis
iliers had upped the wholesale
;ost.
