ENGLISH WOMEN ARE ARRESTED Three Sentenced to Fourteen Days Imprisonment For Resisting Po- lice—One Refused Fine, By United Proess. St. Paul, Jan., 29.—With the wo- mans’ suffrage bill out of the way in the senate, that body will now have time to consider other important measures, such as the proposed pub- lic utflities bill, the several amend- ments to the primary election law, reapportionment, and the creation of departments of public domain and agriculture. While the most ardent supporters of the equal suffrage bill were hope- ful to the last that the bill would pass the senate, it has been appar- ent to the experienced observer that the chances were against it. With the same senators on guard a8 were there two years ago, and with one vote already recorded against the Dill, it seems that the ‘workers now concede that they prob- ably made a blunder when they did mnot have the measure come up in the house first. Even now, there is nothing to prevent the house from. passing its own bill and again putting the.mat- ter up to the ‘senate, but with one defeat, the enthusiasm of the most enthusiastic worker is bound to be dampened. Three senators, S. B. Duea, Ruth- town; W. B. Dwinnell, Minneapolis; and Manley L. Fosseen, Minneapolis, this year voted for the bill although they voted against it two years ago. Thelir votes were off-set, however, by the fact that four senators, H. W. Cheadle, Duluth; F. A. Duxbury, Caledonia; C. D. Johnson, Brainerd, and A. C. Olson, Windom, changed thelr votes from “aye” to “nay.” ‘The vote was recorded as follows: Ayes—Bedford, Benson, Boyle, Cashman, Clague, C. F. Cooke, Dale, Denegre, Duea, Dwinnell, Elwell, Fosseen, Froshaug, Gunderson, Han- son, Haycraft, V. L.

A man in the crowd yelled: “There goes the brewery bunch.” Senator McGrath; who voted against the bill, took exception to the remark and started for the man.

ELIMINATES MISLEADING ADS 1ation of newspfiper advertlslng ever undertaken in any state Is proposed under a menure suggested by Pure Food Commissioner Ladd of North Dakota. It is & “pure newspaper” law, as relating to advertising. The editor may prevaricate, mislead and exaggerate. in the editorial and news columns of his paper to his heart’s content,. but the ‘advertisers must not misrepresent. The law is general in its scope. It applies not only to food: stufts and to medicines-and paints and articles of that nature but also to all kinds ot wearing apparel; machinery, clothing, shoes—in fact everything offered for sale. The proposed law will not only stop exaggerated advertisements but éntirely eliminate misleading circu- lars, books and posters used by fake doctors and fake food 'x}nd medicine and other commercial articles. Shoddy: clothes, advertised as real wool, silk clafmed to be pure when it is forty to seventy-five per cent min- eral, shoes with paper soles, plate iron machinery advertised as steel, and thousands of other articles come under the measure advocated by Commissioner Ladd. ! It- is the most éensatinnzl plan ever suggested for the regulating of advertisers and makes it as necessary to_ tell the truth in soliciting patron- age as on the bottles of medicine or packages of food sold in-this state. It even reaches the almanacs and calendars. One of the strong points of the law is the manner in which' it will prevent the vendors of fake medicine cure-alls from advertising in North Dakotd. The plan is attracting a great deal of Mtem_,lon. SCOOP. THE CUB REPORTER Oh, Yes, The Boss Is Very Technical - " FBoss Lev me T Youre PENCL-THERES @ LADXON By "HOP” D. A: Whiting, a Farmer in thio Town. . of Northern; More Than Paid for LAND VALUE -WAS INCREASED Figures: He Made $58.10 on Five - and One-Half Acres After Pay- ing All the Expenses, A HOME IN THREE YEARS Started With $500 Cash and Now Has Well Stocked Forty With Twenty-five Under the Plow. D. A. Whiting, a farmer in the town of Northern, believes that Bel- trami county jack pine soil is & mon- ey maker. To prove it, he points to his own experiences. In 1910 he bought forty acres on which there was a clearing of about elght acres. Mr. Whiting had a capital of $500. There were no buildings on the place. Today he has twenty-five acres under the plow, a commodious house, a modern barn in the course of comstruction, and other necessary out buildings. He bought this'land for $300. He has four head of cattle, three of horses and necessary farm implements. The farm today is worth conservatively $2,000 and it is all clear. He has made a good living for three years on forty acres and has increased his worth $600 per year. GIVES BiG RETURN _Of_what . the. land- will -do, Mre Whmng submits the following ex- ample. . He had a woodlot of five and one-half acres which he hired grub- bed at $15 per acre. He ran over the land once with a harrow and planted three acres to fodder corn and the balance he planted to rutabagas by sowing them wild and running over once with a harrow. It took two men half a day to cut the fodder corn. Figuring.his pay for labor, the value of the seed, etc., at $10, which he says is liberal, and the in- crease in the value of the land at the cost of clearing, Mr. Whiting shows this balance sheet: Return on Land. Fodder corn, 3 acres . 200 bu. bagas, 20¢ ... Increase in land value... $ 50.00 40.00 82.60 Total «.uvvineeennnes. $172.60° Cost. 5 ..$ 21.90 . 82.50 10.00 Land, raw .. Clearing ...

He was offered $60 for the corn as it stood in the field after being cut but refused the offer. - He points to the fact that the of clearing the land and salso $7.50 of the $10 expense in.preparing, seeding and harvesting the crop. Four acres of potatoes last year yielded him 600 bushels but the crop ‘was not normal. has run over 200 bushels to the acre. He had in fourteen acres of corn which is furnishing feed for three milk cows; a heifer, two horses and a colt, Mr. Whiting’s best cow took second prize in the. three-year- old class at the county fair.last fall and he also had three helifers which took a second each. 5 : One of the improvements he is making on his farm is 'a barn which has a floor space of 36x32. - The stock stalls are built in the basement and the main floor of the barn is used for hay, fodder corn and a machinery shed. - The barn is located on-the side of a hill and the doors to the stock room ‘openl on the south. thick cement wall and on'the north by a 12x32 root cellar. - In the spring,” Mr. Whiting expects to put in a cement floor and a cement roof in’ the stoék room and vlll put “Mr. Whiting hvtrennm ‘and man- value of the crop paid for the cost - The: sbock room is 22x32 and ili protected on three ‘sides by a foot In other years it vphn‘king over the cement floor 80 ° that it will not’ be cold to stand on.
