(Official City, State and County Newspaper) Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, BREWER (incorporated) CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON| Wind in Wisconsin | Wisconsin's political winds caused @ major turnover in the primary election Tuesday but it remains to be} seen what will happen there before the ides of November roll around. Outstanding, of course, was the downfall of the LaFollette dynasty, supreme in the state since “Old Bob” roared to the farmers that they were being made the slaves of the rail- roads and big business, selling them on the idea so thoroughly that his influence extended to his sons after his death. But the younger LaFol- lettes seem to lack the ability of their father, a common thing in politics,| and so what was once a great name in Wisconsin suffers its first defeat in more than 40 years. The really significant thing, how- ever, was the enormous swing of in- terest to the Democratic ticket. Two years ago a lone candidate for gov- ernor got 17,000 votes in the primary election. This year there were three candidates battling for the office and the number of votes cast probably will exceed 150,000. On this basis there were some 133,000 who ignored the tradition that to vote at a Demo-| catic primary in Wisconsin is to lose your vote, since the Republican nom- ination is equivalent to election. There can be no question but that the tremendous swing to the Demo- crats aided in the defeat of young Governor LaFollette and Senator’ Blaine. One reason those people went Democratic is because they were dissatisfied with conditions as they; are. People of this ilk have been the backbone of the LaFoliette strength in the state. It seems a fair infer- ence, therefore, that the loss of these votes to the Republicans meant more to the son of “Old Bob” than it did to Mr. Kohler, the gubernatorial nominee. Incidentally, there is some poetic justice in the returns insofar as the! governorship is concerned. As a groundwork for his campaign Bene Kohler two years ago, Philip LaFol- lette, then state's atiorney of Dane county, in which Madison is located, brought numerous charges against the governor and forced a trial. The! apparent object was to focus the spotlight on the young attorney, since there never was a chance of convict-} ing Kohier and the jury promptly re- turned a verdict of not guilty. It was on the rather shoddy issues thus raised that LaFollette cam- pagined against the then governor and defeated him for the nomina- tion. If he is elected in the fall, therefore, Kehler will find it doubly sweet to be again ensconced in the governor's mansion. There is more than a possibility,! however, that Wisconsin may return a@ Democratic governor and senator in November. If the LaFollette forces throw their influence to the Demo- crats it will be a real race and one which can be decided only by count- ing the votes. The Importance of Corn In connection with the State Corn Show which will be held here Oct. 26-29, it is interesting to note the importance attached to this crop by the International Harvester company in announcing its decision to con- tinue its leases on four demonstra- tion farms in the Dakotas and Can- ada. Discussing the experiences of 20 years at the Aberdeen, 8. D., and Larimore, N. D., farms, and a briefer experience at Oak Lake, Manitoba, and Gull Lake, Sask., the company's 00 | Stimulators of additional interest in} just as valuable, and they are as easily grown on these farms as in any other part of the conti- nent. ‘The great increase in acre- age and use of these crops dur- ing the past twenty years, is evi- dence that others are appreciat- ing them as well. The recent dry years have proved the value of corn in this district dur- ing poor seasons. When the sun and the corn has managed to pull through and at least provide feed. | The harvester company is doing good work in proving out the value | of various farm systems under prac-} tical conditions. But one of the best | corn and one of the best proofs of| the importance which it has attained is the annual corn show here. Constructive Action Extension of the lawn water rate through October and a reduction in the price to be charged, announced Thursday by the city commission, is to be commended. The step meets an urgent demand on the part of householders who have done much to give this city the splendid reputation for beauty which it enjoys. Incidentally, it proves the value of a medium of free expression such as that offered to the public in the People’s Forum, conducted by this} newspaper. It was the\suggestion of a contributor to this column which jlaid emphasis upon the need for} jaction. It is to be assumed that the city commission, had it appreciated the situation which had developed as/ a result of the present drought, would have acted voluntarily. As it is, they and everyone in Bismarck profited by this timely suggestion, The suggestion that the water rates may be still further reduced in the spring also is welcome. Bismarck enjoys the best water in the state but, in comparison with the rates charged at Fargo and some other places, it is paying a heavy price for this public service. Reduction in its cost will not only save money for the people al- ready here but will add another to the many factors which make Bis- marck the fastest-growing city in the state. Cooperation These are days when businessmen are going after the shekels with new energy and ideas, as may be dem- onstrated by a recent action of the Minneapolis Hotel association. In order to fill their rooms they are offering a new service to North- west sport fans and, incidentally, boosting the Little World Series, a Part of which will be played in the Mill City from Oct. 2 to 4. Under the arrangement the hotels are offering to reserve seats for such patrons as ask them for reservations and indicate a desire to see the base- | ball games. It is an additional serv- ice, offered in the hope of promoting business, end is renewed evidence of the growing spirit of cooperation in business. Perhaps the hotel men and the baseball managers have heard so! much about the value of cooperation | with regard to farm matters that| they are adapting the idea to their own business. Editorial Comment Editorials printed below show the trend of thought by other editors. They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies, Hurley ‘Gets’ Pearson (Williams County Farmers Press) A few months ago, Robert Allen, co-author of the sensational best! seller, “Washington Merry-Go- Round,” was summarily discharged. Allen asserted that the order came from the white house for his dis- charge because of the uncomplimen- tary things which were said about the administration in the volume he helped write. A short while ago, a volume en- titled “More Washington Merry-Go- Round” was written, in which one Drew Pearson, Washington corres- pondent for the Baltimore Sun, wrote an unflattering chapter about Secre- tary of War Hurley. In his volume he charged that Hurley had made a property exchange by securing the promise of the renting officer in the Hurley department that the building would continue to be rented by the government. Hurley called Pearson into the war office. A hot session ensued, punc- tuated by numerous threats by Hur- ley that he would “get” Pearson for writing that book, and that Pearson would soon find himself out of a job. Hurley was right. The owner of the newspaper had Pearson called in. he was asked to resign, requesting that he be discharged instead. He was. Arthur Sears Henning, a Chicapo Tribune correspondent, in an article appearing in that newspaper, relates the story of Pearson's discharge and calls attention to the multitudinous influences that are brought to bear on correspondents to write what pleases the white house and the pow- ers that be. Referring to social and other means whereby the correspond- ents are kept in line, Henning says: “Those who are not amenable to such influence may be subject to intimi- dation.

Every little while I get a pretty darn cheery testimonial from some one who has acquired needed flesh by following the instruc- tions in the monograph. Still, in spite of my best efforts, some of these skinny ones have remained holy frights until—they found an up-to- date physician who will give them the insulin treatment. Oh, yes, I suppose there are still a few hopeless old fogy practitioners who have never heard of using insulin merely to give a person some needed flesh, For all I know there may even be a quaint bird here and there who opines such treatment is “dangerous.” That is a reaction which incompetent doctors are likely to give to almost any modern therapeutic development; they can’t learn the new trick o1mas- ter the new technic, so they fall back on the suggestion that it is “danger- ous,” which is enough to frighten their gullible customers off. Insulin plays an important role in Physiology. It makes you eat. One patient gains 221% pounds in 28 days of insulin treatment. Another gains 10 pounds in 12 days. The treat- ment is begun by administering 3 units of insulin every three hours. The dose of insulin is gradually in- creased until 10 units or even larger doses are given every three hours. Patients are directed to keep some carbohydrate food always at hand, and to indulge in it freely—sugar, milk chocolate, candy, orange juice, ice cream, cake, sandwich, bread or cracker, milk, even sweetened tea. Never mind about the diet otherwise. Just clean up whatever good eats hap- pen to be within reach. This treatment produces a remark- able increase in appetite, probably an increase in stomach capacity, and most significant of all, a genuine pleasure in eating. Worry, anxiety, fear and other un- pleasant emotions are notorious for making victims wan and thin. Prob- ably these emotions produce the sad effect by diminishing the natural in- ternal secretion of insulin. So cheer up, you skinny folk, and shop around for an up-to-date doctor who will give you the insulin treat- ment even though there is no ques- tion of diabetes. If this suggestion seemed too novel or visionary when I first published it here a good while ago, it is now a well established principle of modern thera- peutics. Yes, sir, there are a lot of ’em roll- No reply can be made to queries not conforming to instructions.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Nearsightedness Sixteen, very nearsighted, have worn glasses past six years, having them changed every two years. Oculist told me I'd have to wear glasses always. Last year I left off glasses most of the time. Now I notice a distinct im- provement in my sight. Can you give me any exercises or tell me any way I can strengthen my sight? My faith in glasses as a means of improvement is much shaken ... (G. M.) Answer—I know of no such exer- cise.
