Kresge Bidg (Official City, State and County Newspaper) WELCOME, LAWMAKERS | The calendar brings to Bismarck again the opcning| of another legislative session, the twenty-first assembly in the history of the state. It is the successor to a long list of lawmaking sessions here that have been notable for the vigorous spirit of their legislative processes and their legislative product, whether for good or ill, whether able to stand the test of time or merely demonstrate the; need of amendment or of repeal. Whatever the incom- ing body has in it potential of progress or error which the perspective of time will reveal later, the city wel- comes it as its guest for a short period. The Tribune welcomes it. Questions of administration are preponderant at this time. No great public problem in the domain of reform thrusts a claifn on the time, the intelligence or the action of the men now assembling here to take up the labors of framing laws. Growing need of support for state in- stitutions and of improvements to the highways, the schools and the maintenance of health constitute ‘a prob- Jem in taxation that must receive intelligent treatment. The perplexing matter of the mill will claim a large share of attention, the health program which the state department administering that activity has formulated will probably take close thought. But there is no out- standing problem to innovate so-called reform legisla- tion or vast economic projects. Those functions of the state and legislation which deal witli the detailed admin- of activity for the session. In its personnel, the new assembly represents typical cross-section of the people who make up the great com- monwealth of agriculture that is North Dakota. Nearly every member in it has his contacts with this primary ine dustry. Many are dirt farmers and stock growers. But there is sufficient diversity of interest in their combined Montana, where industrial che industrial development of electric power, which then is transmitted to other polnis over high tension Ines. And at Lehigh there is being inauguratea the briquetting process that promises the state a fuci industry with highly v.iable by-products. Now, in what is being donc in the case of the dairy herd and the conversion of lignite there 1s the suggestion why not extend this process to other natural products of the state? Why not mill the grain at home? Why not pack the livestock in the cities of the state as already has been begun by the Armours at Fargo? Why not turn |to the production of other agricultural products that may be converted into secondary products here? It seems, then, that for any place in North Dakota, the |inauguration of industry should be shaped by the supply of grain, livestock, sugar beets, flax, fuel and clay de- | posits. The problem of what can be done to bring any in- ry to Bismarck, which is the main item on the pro- posed program of the Association of Commerce at this time, is thus more closely approached. and from that focal point it becomes caster to segregate the possible projects from those lacking in adaptation for the present. Two main suggestions seem to Icom out of the inven- tory of the possible. One logical suggestion would be to establish a packin; plant here, another would be to in- vestigate the possibility of sugar beet culture and follow the exampl7 of Grand Forks by obtaining a beet sugar | slant here if the adjacent agricultural territory can prof- itably develop the culture of the beets. In the case of the suggested packing plant, there is nothing to investi- gate as to cattle, sheep and swine. The growing of these has from back in the pioneer era of the state been a proved and profitable enterprise. There would be no dearth of natural supplies for such a plant here. And with the reputed policy of the big packers being to branch St. Paul and other packing centers into plants nearer the source of supplies, as in the Fargo case, Bismarck should get into line for the day when another of the big fellows begins looking arouza ivr location in North Dress. If the beet sugar industry could be established here, with a success like that in the Grand Forks area and in southern and eastern Montana, Nebraska, Wyoming and Colorado, it would be a tremendous asset to this country and to the city. In the Billings and Sidney territory of 1 out of the concentrated operations in Chicago, Omaha, |- resources are necessarily meager as in any new country which has not fully found itself or developed its resources, the sugar beet check comes as a form of considerable wealth in the season from S2ptember up to and shortly befond Christmas. It pays the farmers larger proceeds than their grain, it af- fords a fat payroll to the factory town for at least three months of the year, when other labor sources of wages are inoperative, it provides feeding by-products which livestock growers utilize in preparing their stock for market and, incidentally, develops another considerable business while these operations are on at some feeding center, as is the case cach winter at the Billings fair grounds, the total volume of expenditure sometimes at- taining $50,000 a month.

The county officials have an ever-increasing accumulation of records to maintain, and these are en- titled to better and safer filing facilities. The architect- ural feature of this suggestion is not debateble. Bur- leigh county is entitled to a commodious, practical and graceful court structure. i The need of a community hall has been suggested by the meeting here last week of the Provident full-time men, the continuing conference of county superintend- ents of schools, and the coming poultry show. A good many business men seem to favor the idea and spoke out for it at a meeting at the Association of Commerce rooms last Wednesday evening. This suggestion might, and improvemcnt may be formulated and early steps be made possible for putting it into concrete form. “Oh, goodness! Are you still talk- ing about that? No, you'd better wait a day or two and then go. Ask Dorothy to come over here.” “You mean I can’t go in because Jim's sick?” “Certainly. That's what I’ve been saying right along.

Most of the cases of female trouble, piles, internal organs in place are attached to the back jn a manner which is more suitable for a dog, walking on all fours, than for a human being, standing and sitting upright. In the one, who desires to avoid an abdom- inal prolapsus, takes special exercises for developing the abdominal muscles. Mere general exercises are not suf- ficient.

These two positions are more valuable if followed by the setting-up exercises for the develop- ment of the abdominal muscles.

L. writes: “My father is blind in one eye from what the doctor says is detached retina. Can this be cured by diet, or is an operation iis q Answer: This condition is usually incurable. There are a few in- stances where the retina became re- attached with and without treatment. I have been unable to discover any cases that were successfully treated surgically. Pies and Cakes Question: D. J. asks: “May one use milk and cream with any foods desired, and when can pies, cakes and doughnuts be eaten and in what com- binations with other foods?” Answer: Milk should be used by itself or with fruits or non-starchy vegetables, but not with the ordinary meal containing proteins and starches. Cream may be used on cer- eals or added to vegetables after they are cooked. If pies, cakes or dough- nuts are ever used, they should be used as starchy foods and the same rules about combinations holds good with these foods as with other hes. - Sore Lips Question: J. K. writes: “Have very sore lips, cracked, and skin peeling off, Have tried many remedies but still getting worse. Please tell me the cause of this and what I can do.” Answer: Your trouble may be caused simply from over-acidity of the stomach, or it may be due to some infection in the mouth around the tecth. First, consult a good dentist and get his opinion. If there is no mouth infection, then take a fast for 8 few days and afterwards live on a careful diet to correct over-acidity .of the stomach.
