INK MILK --You know is - CLEAN --- SAFE Schroeder’s Alfalfa Dairy Farm milk comes from healthy cows, kept in sanitary quarters. fed on balanced . rations. The milk is clarified, bot- \ tled and brought to your table pure. There is such a difference in milk-' and youw’ll notice it more if you drink Schroeder’s. i ' Phone 65 SCHROEDER’S ;DR & PURE e g always patronize The Pioneer. ence, that it has no equal in this section-of the country as an advertising medium, % : Advertisers who want the best results They know, by experi- = | When You g0 fur" il aTriporona V@un You'll of course want handy luggage—a trunk, suit case, travel- ing bag, especially for traveling use,and there’s no reason why it should not be just as “right” as your clothes.

There areno shopwon, slow sellers to be disposed of in the store that keeps the advertising columns at work selling goods. And you can always depend upon the quality of advertised - articles. The merchant’s reputation is back of his merchandise and he' cannot jeopard- ize it by misrepresenting his goods even the least bit. Furthermore, the dealer’s newspaper an- nouncement usually offers money-saving i and every thrifty person should take full advantage of such opportunities. - Read the advertisements today. : RLOVV0900909000900000000000000000900000609 KEEE KRR KK KKK K] * MME.

There 18 no room for controversy on this point since the object les- son on the Mexican border. All our available regular troops (less; I belleve, than 40,000) are there or in México, nd 48 these have been' deemed insufficient the entire Natlonal Guard has been ordered out; that is, we are summoning practically all our movable military forces in order to present bandit Incur- slons. In view of the warnings of the past three years, it 18 inexcusable that we should find - ourselves In this . plight. For our - faithful -guardsmen, who with a fine patriotism responded to this call and are bearing this burden, I have nothing but praise. ‘But I think it little short of -absurd that we should be compelled to call men from their shops, their factories, their offices and their professions for such a purpose. This, however, is not all. The units of the Na- tional Guard were at peace strength, which was only about one-half the required strength. It was necessary to bring in recruits, for the most part raw and untrained. Only a small percentage of the regiments re- cruited up to war strength will have had even a year’s training in the National Guard, which at the maximum means one hun- dred hours of military drill, and, on the average, means much less. Men fresh -from their peaceful employments and phy- slcally unprepared have been hurried to the border for actual service. They were without proper equipment; without necessary supplies; suitable conditions of transportation were not provided. Men with dependent families were sent; and conditions which should have been well known were dis- covered after the event. And yet -the exigency, comparatively speaking, was not a very grave one. It Involved nothing that could not readily have been fore- seen during the past three years of disturbance, and required only a modest talent for organ- izatlon. That this Administra- tion while pursuing its course in Mexico should have permitted such conditions to exist is al- most incredible—From . Mr, Hughes' speech of acceptance. Mme. Petrova, the great emotional actress, will be seen on the screen here at the Grand theater tonight in “The Eternal Question,” a five-part Metro wonderplay produced by the Popular Plays and Players. This is easily the best production in which Mme. Petrova has ever been starred, on either the stage or screen. She is given an opportunity, for the first time since she has been in Am- erica to display her remarkable ver- satility. In the early chapters of the story she is seen as a princess in royal sur- roundings. Next she is an immi- grant girl, playing a hand organ in the streets of New York, and soon afterwards as a society woman. 1. W. W. WORKERS MAKE DEATH THREAT AT CASS LAKE VILLAGE Ashland, Wis., Aug. 17.—Rodney McDougal and Olaf Erickson return- ed to Ashland following a fruitless attempt to reach the harvest flelds of the Dakotas. Because they were not members of the I. W. W.- they| were held up at Cass Lake by a gang [ of that organization, who threatened them with death if they attempted to reach the harvesting without join- ing the “I Wont Workers.” According to the young men, they stopped over night at Superior. They were-arrested by the police on sus- picion of belonging to the I. W. W. Although both denied the charges, they said they were haled into court the next morning and fined on charges of vagrancy. Desiring to put as much room as possible between themselves and the authorities there, they boarded a train at once, intending to go to the harvest fields without loss of time. They reached Cass Lake without trou- ble, but when the train stopped there, and they went onto the platform to|gqyck on Monday were Herman Thom stretch their legs, they were .ap-|anq family, C.

W. to travel around in the United States. Both attempted to argue, claiming that the United States was a free country and they could go where and when they pleased. One of the gang, who seemed to be leader, informed them that while certain sections of the country might be open, they were in a restricted section at the present time. One of three courses was open to them: Join the I. W. W. and pro- ceed;. give up their quest of work and turn back, or proceed without a card and lose their lives. The pair turned back.

D., Aug. 17.—With a conference of the Federal farm land board set for September 1, the Fargo Commercial club has opened a cam- paign for the establishment of one of the proposed banks in this city. Fargo's claim as a shipping center will be the plea about which the city will build its case for the location of a bank here. There are many things in our stock, many people wonder where to buy. If it's for the office, we be- lieve we have it. At any rate, it will not take long to get it for you. That’s part of our business also. The Pioneer Office, Read the Pioneer want ads.

Clover should be cut when in full bloom. The mower should be followed by the tedder to loosen up the swath, letting in the air so that it ‘can cure evenly. The clover should not be left to burn up in the sun, but should be raked up as soon as nicely wilted. The aim should be to cure the hay in the wind- row or pile rather than to let it lie too long exposed to the sun. If it lies overnight in the wind- row it is advisable to go along with forks and turn the wind- rows over the next morning as soon as the dew is off. Two or three men can in a short time turn over a good sized fleld, and in a .little while the hay is ready to haui in, although - something always depends on the season as to the time it takes to cure the.clover.
