An Individual Problem “What,” inquires a public-spirited Bismarck citizen, “can we do about the rising automobile death toll?” He had in mind the adoption of laws for drivers’ licenses, improve- ment of roads, forced testing of the mechanical condition of motor cars and similar expedients which have been urged or adopted in an effort to halt the tremendous loss of life on our streets and highways. The answer, so far as the public is concerned, is difficult. How can any- one force protection upon individuals who are not sufficiently interested to protect themselves? Can any system take the place of personal attention to the rules of safety? It seems doubtful. From the personal standpoint, however, the answer is simple enough. Each motor car driver can look out for himself. He can follow the rules of the road and of reason. He can keep in mind that he may be the next to join @ great army passing into the dim beyond unless he drives carefully himself and is prepared to make allowances for the ignorant or careless drivers of whom there are all too many on our roads, Analysts looking at the problem from a national standpoint blame the return of prosperity for the fact that the automobile death list was longer during the first quarter of 1934 than for any similar period in our history. There are more cars on the roads and the percentage of fools driving them is the same. The re- sult is obvious. Those who would take a purely lo- cal view of the problem need only to investigate the last two fatal acci- dents in Burleigh county, with three dead, to get an insight into the larg- est current difficulty. It is that of excessive speed. Two were killed when a motor car crashed into @ ditch, turned over and stopped in a field east of the city. Indications were that it was traveling swiftly when the mishap which sent it off the road occurred. Another man was killed north of the city when, traveling at high speed, he was forced to swerve to avoid hitting a truck entering the highway from a side road. That automobile plunged into the ditch, turned end-over-end and came to a stop on its wheels. It takes ter- rifle force to make an automobile perform such capers. ‘The death rate among pedestrians hit by automobiles also is increasing. One authority reports that seven out of every 10 children killed in motor- ing mishaps ‘during the first quarter of this year were struck-while walk- ing or running. in the streets. One out of every five killed was riding on some vehicle other than an auto- mobile or motorcycle, most of them being sleds or bicycles. The death rate from casualties of this type is 87 per cent higher than: last year, ‘What to do about it? wi ‘The answer should suggest itself to every motorist. The one require- ment is good sense and attention to the driving job lést he, too, become @ victim or become the unintentional cause of another's death. Poison, Cats and Birds In the current issue of North Da- kota, Outdoors, publication of the state game and fish department, well taken. If properly handled and distributed, according to most author- ities, game birds will not find pol- soned bran an attractive food and will protect themselves. The chief source of danger, in fact, lies in the possibility that the birds will eat enough poisoned grasshoppers to themselves suffer from the poison. Supplementing the attack on poi- son spreading is one against cats which annually destroy thousands of birds in this state. Only persons with a peculiar affinity for felines 9p) Will take issue with this view. The cat is a natural beast of prey, only partly domesticated, and is likely to prefer birds to mice as a source of food. Even the well-fed cat likes to hunt in obedience to its natural in- stincts and the result is a devastation among our feathered population of which few persons are fully aware. Hopeful Signs Business America looks with hungry eyes to the farm belt for a return of substantial prosperity. Gone are the illusions of the gay twenties when the farm problem was merely something for people in our great metropolitan centers to laugh about. In their place have come an understanding that America is an integral unit; that we all rise and fall together; that there can be no real market for manufactured prod- ucts unless the farmer is in position to buy. Current indices show that the farm situation is improving except where drouth has been most severe. Farm prices are better and the ratio be- tween the cost of farm produce and the cost of manufactured articles has improved. People in the cities have been pa- tient in the face of governmental efforts to raise prices by curtailing production. They have seen the cost of living rise steadily but they have not protested because they realize || Signed letters pertaining to personal self-addressed envelope is enclosed. YOUNG TISSUE CELLS ARE VERY TE:!DER I have nothing whatever against antiseptics, baths, salves or simple twists of the wrists. Although I don’t know why I should, I do bathe from time to time, just to see how it feels to be caught in a shower. It rains 80 seldom here. But I can’t and won't tolerate any excesses in this respect. When I hear ;4hyone sounding off about his bathing or trying to give the impression that he takes a wet wash practically every day, I begin to wonde: how he gets so ty. ; One ridiculous nostrum for a while sought to teach the beautiful but dumb that it is the way of the la-di-da to avoid the trouble of cleaning up after a game of tennis by the neat trick of applying some antiseptic to the important places, and hurrying right on to the dansant or the opera. But I reckon the bird who thought that one up was caught at some skull- duggery or other, for it no longer makes the pulp mags amusing. From the reckless and nonchalant way the wiseacre layman souses his wounds, burns and sores with “power- ful antiseptic” nostrums it is evident that the poor boob hasn't the slightest conception of the process of healing. Before you undertake to treat a cut, burn or wound of any kind it might be well to have some notion of the way healing occurs. A more detailed description of the healing process will be given in an- other talk. Here the significant fact is that new tissue must be produced to repair the injury. The new tissue is composed of cells. The young cells are quite delicate—more delicate than germs—and hence they are easily wiped away or destroyed by careless handling or crippled or killed by tne unwise application of antiseptics. We are none too certain that even the first aid application of fodin or that, after all, there will be little for them unless the man on the farm gets something. How long this will last remains to be seen. There are signs that it will not continue indefi- nitely. Secretary Wallace, in his re- cent address here, warned against a blest of propaganda intended to align the city folk against the farmer, to be loosed next winter. Meantime, the improved farm sit- uation is reflecting itself in the cities. A recent survey by Dun and Brad- streets showed a pick-up in the farm equipment trade, the sales volume having trebled for the first five months of this year as compared with the similar period in 1933. ‘The same authority notes the tre- mendous potential demand for new equipment on the farms and asserts that, as soon as purchasing power Picks up sufficiently, industry's wheels will have to move at top speed to supply the needs which have been dammed up during these last 14 years by inadequate returns to agriculture. This is encouraging to the farmer. It gives promise that he is, at last, about to come into his own.

Dry Weather (Valley City Times-Record) Residents of North Dakota may take some comfort from the thought that the weather man is doing much better by them than he is by south- ern Minnesota, Wisconsin, and north- ern Illinois. A trip from St. Paul to Chicago reveals the fact that the por- tions of country mentioned above are still suffering from the dry weather, and only within the last day or two has rain in any quantity fallen in those sections, and then only a light rain far below the needs.

There is no doubt whatever that the Popular practice of applying such crude poisons as carbolized salve, mer- cury and other “powerful antiseptics,” more or less disguised in countless different nostrums, greatly retards the healing process in the majority of cases, especially burns and open sores of any kind.

Why Breathe With Your Belly My experience indicates that a half dozen inflations of the belly at any time of day, with or without physical exercise, sitting, standing or lying down, is an excellent habit.

Candidates against the convention endorsees for governor and congress. man appear on the ballot but party leaders do not concede them even an outside chance to win. Of particular local interest in both Parties is the fight for control of the county political committees. In Republican ranks the contest represents the old division among fac- tions within the party, while in the Democratic camp insurgents were at- tempting to unseat the old-time lead- ers.

Five street car lines were blocked Tuesday night by a crowd estimated by police to number 5,000. Defying 100 officers, the demonstrators ripped Protective screens from the cars, smashed windows and held up motor traffic as well. Several persons were hurt by flying stones and a girl was trampled. The demonstration came as the cli- max to a quiet parade of about fifty pickets. As the crowd and the vio- lence grew, motormen on the cars were forced to abandon the trams, which were moved into nearby barns for the night. Eleven persons were .| arrested, none of whom. however, was identified as a striker. a| Blaming Communists for the van- dalism, Samuel Berrong, business agent of one of the three striking unions, said, “Union organizations had nothing whatsoever to do with that demonstration.” Policemen, their weekly days-off cancelled because of the strike, stood by helplessly as th: demonstrators tossed stones at the cars, but there ‘was no attempt to attack the motor- men as they deserted their cars. In- stead the crowd shouted its approval. Earlier, however, tre rolice report- ed Nathan Buckspan, a motorman, was beaten severely when rushed by about 40 men.
