Dibell, who is a candidate for re-election to the supreme court, was born on a farm n Harman township, Filmore county, this state. He worked his way through school, and through a university, and was admitted to the practice of law in his native state in October, 1891. He was elected a judge of the district court a few years later and several times re-elected. In April, 1913, he was appointed a commissioner of the supreme court and became a justice of this court in 1918, following the death of Justice Bunn. He has been endorsed for re-election by many public men of the state and by many organizations ineluding the Bar associations of several judicial districts. It is admitted on every hand that by reason of his ability, his experience, his personal standing and his human sympathy as reflected in his decisions, Judge Dibell is qualified beyond any question for the place he now holds. Judge Dibell has a strong following among the trades unions and the public in general. He should be returned to the bench by a large majority. PRESS COMMENTS-THAT'S ALL (By BXOEKANGE EDITOR) Alway’s Bulletin on Peat Soil Out. The Agricultural Value and Reclamation of Min- nesota Peat Soils is the title of Bulletin 188 which has just been published by the division of publica- tions of University Farm. F. J. Alway, chief of the division of soils, University of Minnesota, is the author. This bulletin deals with the value for farming purposes of this class of soils, of which Minnesota has about 7,000,000 acres; the crops suited to them, and methods of handling them. It deals especially with the means of determining just what is lacking on any tract of peat, for there are several different kinds of peat soil and nearly all of them require fertilization from the very first in erder to make them productive. Every Minnesota peat land owner who wishes to improve some of this kind of soil will find directions in this splendid bulletin as to how he should proceed.

THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER Gas consumers at Port Arthur, Texas, at a public meeting paid $38 per thousand in advance for the gas they expected to use for the ensuing month ,in order to prevent closing the plant.

Moore ‘&bout releasing our editor a part of a day during the entire encamp- ment according to his promise. {Thank you, Captain Daniel Moore. We appreci- ate very much your liberal attitude. I we knew before, what we know now, we would not have troubled you. If we owe you an apology pleake be frank and say so. We will make every effort to “carry on,” so that it will not now be necessary for you to release our editor. ————————e RESULTS FIRST. Two men were disputing over the merits of their respective denominations, calling in a neighbor to help settle the matter. “Well, neighbors,” said the referee, “I have been hauling wheat to that mill over there for forty years. There are two roads, the valley and the hill road. But never once has the miller asked me about the way I came. His question always is: ‘What sort of wheat have you got?” Not the route nor the rate, the conveyance or the company, but character.”— N. W. Advocate. Never make an excuse for a duty unperformed. To do so is to admit your own weakness. PR S Trouble with some people; is, they work hard to make money and even harder to spend it. g The goose that lays a golden egg no longer has an attraction. The egg is too small Sugar is short; canned vegetables do not require sugar. Therefore, says R. S.

Mr. Mackintosh says that asparagus can be canned as easily and profitably as any garden product.—Farm News. —_—— There is one thing to cheer us up all the time, There are others, but the best bet is Preus.

Rough Roads for Wheels Are Smooth Roads for Passengers ATCH Overland 4 on rough cobbles or un- paved roads. The wheels fol- low surface inequalities, but the new Triplex Springs give car and passengers remarkable riding steadiness. They give 130-inch Spring- base to a car of 100-inch wheelbase. This makes for the gently buoyant road action of a large, heavy car with the economy in upkeep, fuel and tires, and convenience of handling of a scientifically designedlightcar. Auto-Lite startingandlight- ing, door -opening curtains and dash light give but a hint of the completeness and qual- ity which characterize every- thing about Overland 4.
