Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, BREWER (Incorporated) CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON Legislative Sabotage The prospective attempt in the na- tional senate to broaden the terms of the emergency farm relief bill may turn out to be a form of legislative | sabotage rather than a sincere at- tempt to give the farmer the square Geal for which he has been looking 80 long. It would have been much better to have limited application of the measure to the four items originally listed, wheat, hogs, cotton and to- bacco. Those four items would have been enough to experiment with and would have been of some benefit to every farmer. Here in the northwest, the wheat and hog provisions would have been helpful. Every farmer in this sec- tion raises both—or should. In the south nearly every farmer raises both, tobacco and hogs or cotton and hogs. The effort to eliminate hogs from: the bill should-be defeated, for hogs mean corn in this country and the corn belt is entitled to consideration. ‘The attempt to add corn is foolish, for the American porker is corn on the hoof. Much as all of us favor the dairy industry and its support, it is doubt- ful if the bill should have been ex- tended to cover dairy products. Miserably low as the price is, dairy products are not on an export basis in this country. The other items are. At the beginning it would seem safer to limit the bill to those items of which we have a surplus. They are| him in| the sentence ‘The pen is mightier of such tremendous importance the economic scheme that to lift them would be to lift the level of all other agricultural products. One way to defeat a piece of legis- lation is to load it up with all sorts of provisos and gadgets. Another benefit from the standpoint of those who oppose it is the probability that vast extension will make it almost impossible to operate. From various sections of the farm areas there may come pleas to extend the bill's provisions to include agri- cultural specialties. The fruit people will be heard from most certainly, along with the potato raiser, the sheep and cattle man, the produce grower and the poultryman. But such pleas will be based on purely selfish considerations and they may have the effect of defeating eumbersome to administer.

A Splendid Record The annual meeting of the Bur- tended, for this great charitable or- as it has never needed it before. In a period when many other en- terprises have gone backwWard the Red Cross has gone forward, for the need for its services in the last two years has been tremendous. ‘The work of the Red Cross in deal- ing with major disaster, such as drouth, storm, fire and flood has at- 4 BB 88 - z ge a i 3 3 <i The Bismarck Tribune |°"s Ret Cross has been fortu- an nate in having the able services of Mrs, F. L. Conklin as its chairman. A capable and understanding wom- an, she has given unselfishly of her time in order that this work may be Promoted and properly handled. She has served her fellow man because of her love for humanity and he- cause it was a job which needed to be done. She has not received a penny for her services. During these last few years her experience and training have been of incalculable value. Because of her work Mrs. Conklin is rated as one of Burleigh county's foremost citizens. If all the facts were known she would also be regarded as one of the coun- ty's greatest benefactors, for the work which the Red Cross has done is indissolubly linked with the work which she has accomplished, J. L. Bell's Retirement Few men have given more gener- ously or more graciously of their time to public service than J. L. Bell who, jatter @ very active business career,| retires from the staff of the First National Bank. He holds a high Place in the confidence of the com- munity and probably was called upon many times to do more than his share in community work. He seldom} said no and what jobs he accepted! he always did well. ; Mr. Bell has a wide acquaintance in the state. His knowledge of con- ‘ditions in this section is wide and his work as a banker closely allied him with development in the Missouri Slope section. Entering the bank as a boy, he |started as messenger and ran the gamut of posts before reaching a high executive position. Many will regret his decision to retire from an institution for which he worked so arduously, In state banking circles, he was a leader, having held many posts of honor in the North Dakota Bankers’ association. In the work of the serv- ice clubs, churches and Masonic work, Mr. Bell served long and well. Whatever new field Mr. Bell en- ters he will carry with him the best wishes of a host of friends in Bur- leigh and throughout the state.

They are published without regard to whether they agree or disagree with The Tribune's policies, Pen and Sword (Chicago Tribune) In Mr. Lloyd Lewis’ vivid biog- raphy of William Tecumseh Sher- man there is recorded an incident worth pondering at a period of our history when something like a psy- chosis on the subject of war seems to have touched our intelligentsia and even some eminent public men. “Once,” writes Mr. Lewis, “a Dutch immigrant boy, Edward Bok, wrote (Sherman) a request to send than the sword’ for his autograph collection.

Dill Co.) times, ear cough must be considered a possible explanation and the physi- cian must exclude the possibiltiy by examining the ears with headlight and speculum. e In many cases such an ear cough 066 Is for months of} HORIZONTAL ‘years, and in a few cases the patient even ascribes it to “weak lungs” or some such vague idea. As a rule the ear cough is found to be produced by irritation from a plug of hardened cerumen (ear wax). When this is so, the patient may notice sudden spells of coughing every time water gets into the ear. Some- times there are associated complaints of sudden blurring of sounds and per- haps some dizziness when water gets into the ear. All, of course, the result of swelling of the mass. H Whenever there is reason to suspect | that such @ plug or mass of hardened ; ear wax is present, it is never safe or advisable to insert anything in the) ear canal in the attempt to remove the substance. The homely old ad- vice that the only safe thing to inser! in your ear is your elbow is still sound. Even if you use a blunt instrument there is always danger of infecting the} ear and getting an al - ful boil in the external ear canal,! which is far more painful than a/ | gathering or abscess in the middle ear. The only proper way to remove any accumulation of wax from the ear is by irrigation with an agreebliy warm solution, say a tablespoonful of 1 Autobiography, 7 Hair wavers. 13 Black. 14To deceive. 16 Young herring. 17 Quantity. 18 Disputant. 20 Striped fabric. 21 To exist. 22 Inlet. 23 To sink. 25 Street. 26 Male child. 27 To recede. 29 Kettle. 31 One. 33 Affirms. 35 Street car. 37 Corded cloth. 38 Molasses. 40 Wrath. 41 Northeast. 42 Therefore. 43 Branch. 44 Atjove. 46 Half an em. 47 Lixiviums, 49 Poem, VERTICAL 51 Cattle food. iLarge city in 53 European mint.
