A republic can be defended suc ully only by, its citizens—by all its citizens. Uni- versal military training is ‘the only democratic method of preparing a re- public to defent itself. I also believe it will be of immense benefit physical- ly, mentally and morally to the young men of our country. I hope that the urgency of the present situation of the nation will result in such legislation as will introduc general plan and without undu ay.

Labor, Hagan, counties which find themselves in need of seed-grain will be encour- aged to issue seed bonds or warrants through their county commissions, where this courcs is found necessary. “The seed commission stands ready to assist in the selection of seed and in fiinding where it can be bought,” said Commissioner John N. Hagan to- day. “The commission finds after mak-| ing a careful'supvey that a shortage of barley, oats, flax and corn seed exists,‘ and it recommends that farmers hav- ing any of these grains retain them for seed purposes, and that farmers having supplies in excess of their own needs notify the commissioner of ag- rigulture or the agricultural college. “The farmer probably will realize) a somewhat higher price for this seed- grain than he would get in the open amrket, and the buyer will be saved transportation charges two ways and probably a commission or two. It is certain there will not be sufficient seed grain in the state in any event. We will be compelled to go out of the state for much of it, but every bushel that can be bought inside the state will mean a saving in money and a greater certainty of crop.” “DONT LOOK SF HORSE IN MOUTH” HAS COURTS Of Supreme Bench Rules Fargo Not Liable for Injury Sustained in Enjoying Gratuity ’Tis ‘a wise and sound axiom which forbids looking a gift horse in the mouth, says Justice James E.

Dan + Moulton damages against the city of Fargo for injuries which Moulton sus-' tained when the Fargo dumping grounds burst into flames while he was unloading some debris there.
