Productions was increased on indications of a buying move- ment of importance. ? Railroads are soon to enter the market for 80,000 cars. Chicago financial men hear. The Pennsylvania raliroad tlone made inquiry for 200,000 tons of steel rails. Demand for structural steel in the Great Lakes producing district is jarge. A sheet metal firm booked an order for an additional 2,000 tons shipment to Japan. Japan also has been buying heavily in the lumber market of the Northwest, having ordered 80,000.000 feet for use ‘in rebuilding her earthquake ruined cities. Building activities are continuing apace, with reports of ‘shortage of labor and high wages im the building trades in ithe large cities. ;, ,Charles Schwab predicts that the steel business will be :better in the next 10 years than in the last 10 years. Ip. spite of the admitted unsatisfactory condition of ag- iriculgire and the best estimates of business experts the facts are at this time:that the volume of business of the United States is still flourishing and probably will continue to flourish fads ENTIRELY UNCALLED FOR President Coolidge may, as some interpreters say, have nominated Frank B. Kellogg of Minnesota to be ambassador to the Court of St. James primarily because he was a west- erm man. It was plain to those in the Northwest that poli- tically the appointment would be unsatisfactory to the farmer-labor group, especially since Kellogg had been de+ Feated for reelection as Senator in Minnesota by Dr. Ship- sptead. ’ Mr. Kellogg’s intellectual attainments. are unquestioned. His; experience in. foreign affairs through hig service on the ‘foreign relations committee in the senate will stand him in 3gooq stead in dealing with delicate problems ‘in London. ~ The announcement of Senator Magnus Johnson and thers of the La Follette group that confirmation of the Rppointment will be opposed because a “progressive” should \ghave been appointed appears to be carrying opposition and “vindicativeness to an unwarranted degree, THE JOKER What do you think of a janitor with a salary of $10,500 .4 year? That’s the income of James A. Howe, described by 2a Boston newspaper as the highest paid janitor in that city. Howe’s salary is more than is received by the mayor of Bos- tonjor the governor of Massachusetts. Here’s the joker. Janitor Howe has to pay seven assist- ‘ants out of his salary. He says this leaves him only about $45.a week. t T- : jplowe isn’t the only person who doesn’t make as much “money as appears on the surface. Around coal mines there sremen whose “big pay” shrinks when they take out what At ebsts for their helpers, the powder they use, and so on. We know a lawyer with an income of $30,000 a year, By the time he gets through paying office rent, employes and soth¢r expenses of operation, we doubt if he has $10,000 a year left. : Another case is a physician who specializes with radium ‘and the X-ray. He charges big fees. Before he has any “clear profit” for himself he has, to figure rent, officé ex- “penses and interest on about $25,000 worth of radium and a-ray machinery. : . : We're all in much the same boat, -Some have to dress expensively for their line of work, compared with the over- allsithey would wear in a plainer job. Many things we buy ure'really business expenses—including often our general sstandard of living. Men in certain positions have to main- tain a certain “front.” ‘Their real income is what’s left after Aleducting all these. .

When you are liked they applaud. But in the pictures ‘you never know.” “In other words, the human touch or human contact is wbsent. And it, in the long run, is one of the mightiest or¢es in the otherwise desolate. journey, life. There Bvouldn’t be wars if there were human contact between indi- Sviduals of rival nations.

Over the nation the name “Bad Lands” ig nearly as well known as the name, “North Dakota.” — In- stead of changing the name an ef- fort should be mide to have it copyrighted and take full advant- age of its advertising value. The name “Bad Lands” is dis- tinctive — different. It is a name which intrigues the interest and inspires the imaginaton. ntion of the name calls to mind histor'c events which cannot be disassci- ated and romantic memories which will live forever, Poets and prose writers have immortalized the “Bad Lands.” The old books will no be rewritten.- It “is too late to make the change. Can you imagine future students of histoy or rough riders of the Diains getting the fact firmly in mind that Teddy Roosevelt ranch- ed in the “Wonderlands of. North Dakota?” The Bad Lands need to be bet- ter known and should be more ap- preciated.

NORTH DAKOTA WILL COME BACK When a Government commission, sent from Washington to investi- gate the condition of the North- western farmer, spends only four hours in .Fargo, it cannot be ex- pected thatimuch good will come from the visit. What the Govern- ment should do is to find out ex-| actly. what the situation is. What is the total indebtedness of thei farmers ‘of North Dakota? How many have left the State, because | of inability to, stay on their land?! How many good crops will be ne- cessary to get things in working order? Somg- of these questions should have \been put, and proba- dly a week should have been given | to the work in North Dakota alone. However, some good may come out of the visft, because it serves to emphasize the fact that the; farmer himself is the solution. He| must work out the problem witi | his face to the front and with his| faith strong. Corn is selling over | one dollar. We believe the turn has been made for the better. Drouths will not always continue. | North Dakota will yet have an av-| erage of twenty bushels an acre on | wheat. Tracy Bangs, in an impromptu |speech in Grand Forks Saturday |morning to the visiting railway jspecial, put the whole truth in a |nutshell, when he said: “North | Dakota ig not busted.” There is the key to the situation, Keep that in mind. Some of the |farmers have been hard hit. Keep | that in mind. But North Dakota | has one great fact to be thankful for—she has not had land price in- | flation. That will do more to put! her back on her feet than even a {good crop might do. . North Dakota has had poor press! agents, The Nonpartisan League jhas been a poor press agent. It} {has emphasized pessimisin. It has preached the doctrine of discon- tent. It hag destroyed the morale | of North Dakota farmers, and noj State can do well without a strong morale, There must be more faita | in’ the future. These hardships | have a purpose. ~ They are teach- {ing the North Dakota farmer that {he must depend less on one crop| |and more on diversified policy, and | that he must work to it slowly. |. We have faith to believe that the |farmers of North Dakota ten years |from today will have forgotten the hardships of the last five years, ,thanks to the prosperity that is {about to come upon them. But for ;the next two years the North Da- jkota farmer» must economize, | ;Once more he must work with the ‘oun, and nof make a daily visit to ‘town.
