Balanced by Irrigation There is a lesson for North Dakota farmers and ranchers in the current reports from the Kansas City feed market, greatest in the country. An extra choice lot of alfalfa hay sold for $26.50 there last week and the better grades were moving to dairymen at only slightly lower prices, many sales at from $24 to $25 a ton being WHERE HE GOT THE IDEA School Superintendent H. O. Saxvik has asked pupils in Bismarck’s public schools to contribute one cent a day to the Open Your Heart campaign, be- ginning Monday. He wante the children to get a little practice in giving. And here’s where he got the idea. The following poem is a part of the prescribed reading course for the Third Grade in the public school system: A REAL SANTA CLAUS (By Frank Dempster Sherman) Santa Claus, I hang for you, By the mantel, stockings two; One for me and one to go To another boy I know. There's a chimney in the town You have never traveled down. Should you chance to enter there You would find a room all bare. Not a stocking could you spy, * Matters not how you might try. And the shoes you'd find are such As no boy would care for, much, In a broken bed you'd see Someone just about like me, Dreaming of the pretty toys Which you bring to other boys. And to him a Christmas seems Merry only in his dreams, All he dreams then, Santa Claus, Stuff the stocking with, because, When it’s filled up to the brim, Tl be Santa Claus to him. And here are two schoolboys who are planning to do something about that empty stocking. The third is “another boy I know.” recorded. Continuing, the report says in part: An increased truck movement of alfalfa from the Garden City district to surrounding counties was reported, with prices generally around $15.00 per ton, baled on farms, This movement was mostly north and south of Garden City into the extreme dust areas. Many trucks were hauling beet tops, sorghum fodder and other rough- ages to these districts, also. Livestock on feed in the Garden City district were being pastured extensively on sorghum fields which failed to mature grain ahead of frost. With a material increase in demand for alfalfa in the Platte Valley of Nebraska, prices showed an advance of around $1.00 per ton. Third cutting was quoted at $13,00-15.00 per ton, second cutting &t $12.00-14.00 and first cutting at $9.00-10.50 per ton, f.0.b. cars. In addition to the liberal carlot shipments, truck movement was good and supplies of hay in the Valley were diminishing rapidly, according to trade reports. Prairie hay, however, remained neglected. Both Garden City and the Platte Valley mentioned are irri- gated areas and the “dust areas” come down to the edges of the irrigated tracts in many places. The irrigation farmers are doing well because of current prices. Some of them are feeding their alfalfa and refusing to sell. The non-irrigation farmers have a source of hay supply which is both better and cheaper than any North Dakota has known in its years of short feed. Thus Kansas has established a balance which keeps its agriculture on an even keel. __ The notation that “prairie hay remained neglected” is interesting and reflects the fact that this type of forage is much less valuable than alfalfa, hence cattlemen hesitate to invest money in preparing it for shipment and in transportation costs as long as alfalfa at reasonable prices is available. If North Dakota had irrigation projects to maintain such balance in this state similar benefits would accrue both to the irrigation farmer and the stockman. Too Many Bonds hy Washington observers, among them The Tribune’s Rodney Dutcher, are unanimous in the opinion that if the business re- cession persists the government soon will go back to an era of free spending in an effort to revive prosperity. If this is done, those who hope to see the America of the future patterned even a little after the America of the past are due for grave disappointment. In its effort to give business a shot in the arm the government will merely administer another soporific which will still further damage its already weakened To finance its spending the government issues bonds, which are tax free. Into these will continue to go the money of the rich who thus find a refuge for the capital which should be driven into productive enterprise. Business, meanwhile, is de- prived of its capital market and initiative languishes. The tax-free bond menace was never so grave as now and feven the wealthy should recognize the fact. Continued long enough it means an overwhelming interest burden, eventual inflation of the currency, repudiation of the bonds and a deluge If too many bonds are loaded onto the taxpayer’s back he wither becomes the slave of the bondholder or is forced by his extremity to revolt and cast off the yoke. America wants none of that sort of thing. And the time to recognize what is in store is before the evil gets too great. FAITHFULNESS REWARDED . How the faithfulness of dogs caan be matched by the faithfulness of their masters was proved this week by Justin Malloy, 11-year-old son of Mrs. Malloy, former commander of the Ameri- Last Monday, Waldo, the. lad’s dog disappeared and failed to answer his master’s repeated calls. As the day wore along a blizzard blew up and by nightfall was raging fiercely. Into the teeth of the wind went repeated calls for “Waldo, Waldo.” But there was no answer. Night fell and the boy mourned. Finally, he heard—or thought he heard—a dog barking in the distance and was sure it was the voice of his pet. Inducing 14-year-old William Malloy, Jr., to go along, the two boys took @ flashlight and ventured forth into the storm, heading in the direction from which the barks came. Several times they lost their way but when they lifted their voices to call for Waldo the dog would answer. : Finally, they found him. He had stepped into a trap which had been placed near the top of a pile of rocks more than a mile away from the Malloy Together the boys and their dog battled home through the storm, the dog limping but glad to be free of the trap. He had evidently been caught in the trap during the morning and might have perished there had not his young master come to the rescue. eeeees BLUE RIBBON Mary had a little lamb, Who loved her very much, He followed her to school one day As a sandwich in her lunch, The aforesaid ditty, without reflecting on the original nursery rhyme, describes exactly what is going to happen to that fat little lamb that has bea quietly munching away in a pen in the lobby of the Patterson hotel That lamb is no common, ordinary lamb. He probably never has fol- lowed any Mary to school. But he did go to Chicago where he won first in his class and went on to capture the grand championship.

It seems that Marcelle LaRose MacRae, cast as Candida in the title, role of the play, must need carry a carpet-bag in her hand on one of her en- trancés. And the carpet-bag must fit in with her ensemble. It can’t be just any old color, ‘cause that just wouldn’t do. , And until Candida can have just the kind of a carpet-bag she wants the “producers” won't rest easy. Hence the call for help: “Who's got a carpet- bag, and what does it look like?” Can anybody help dress Candida? oe ee ET TU, BRUTES! Remember some weeks ago that Rex V. King wrote as though his queen had burnt the breakfast toast and he sounded off in not too complimentary @ manner about women in general because he figures it wasn’t possible they could have the last word for once. But we fooled him! We told all gals to hitch up their galluses and use their verbal rolling pins on insulting Rex. {| Remember? Well, one of Eve's descendants dropped us a line. She wants Rex to know | that “Those ladies you said must first be gentlemen:—then gentlemen must first be ladies, “I want to say if your requirements of opening doors for others is a lady, then I'm a lady and I’ve opened the door and held it open for so may men that never even said ‘boo’ that I know there are a number of ungrateful brutes. And there are women in the same category! “and about those butter-cheese smearers. I know what you mean. There are three of them in my own household, and they aren't females either!” But our fighting female really goes to town when she answers Rex's ques- tion as to the reason why ladies trot across an icy place. The answer is, says she “that the ladies want to draw attention, because men do notice such things. While men walk carefully because they would not want a woman to see them slip and land on thelr dignity-” | ‘ REAL ESTATE HISTORY If A, J. Arnot, president of the Burleigh County Abstract company, is right in his speculations, property in the Governor Pierce addition to the City of Bismarck changed hands more in the boom of 1883 here than any other part of the Capital City. Lots and tracts of land in that addition sold for from one to five and eight thousand dollars during the period of land speculation that followed the establishment of the territorial capitol here, Arnot told members of the Bismarck Rotary club Wednesday. And consequently titles to property there have stretched into long, involved documents. The Governor Pierce addition is bounded on the north by Avenue A, has its west boundary midway between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, its south boundary just south of Main street, and its east boundary at Twenty-first street, Another part of the city where titles are complicated is the Prospect Place addition west of Avenue D and between Emerson avenue on the south and what perhaps would be Avenue G on the north. Some of the shortest titles are to be found in the original plat, or the present business district, and the two Northern Pacific additions. Reason for this, Arnot explained, is that here the titles passed directly to the original owners and since then they have not changed hands as many times as has some property in other parts of the city. The two Northern Pacific additions—one west of the other—extend from Washington avenue to midway between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, and are bounded on the north by Avenue D and on the south by a line running midway between Avenue A and Rosser. zs ee eee WHAT'S BECOME OF— Col.

It is a state of mind, of course, but even so, it may depend on # physical condition. is @ fellow who sets out ular that he discontinues his studies and magazines and popular books. The one that invented might discovered, had he persevered with his study of physiology, that there is more than just an idea or an attitude in anhedonia. Another definition of anhedonia is absence of pleasure from the per- formance of acts which are pleasurable to a normal individual; failure to get a “kick” out of doing things . Some “killjoys” are obviously sick and their sufferings sufficiently explain their cheerless disposition, Others are appar- ently well, free from any evident disease or ailment, simply lack relish, gusto, zest, well-being, felicity. Chronic anoxia is what ails a good ‘many of these anhedonics. This is my opinion—probably you will not find it in my textbook or hear it from any authority until 1943 or later. But meanwhile it will do no harm to try it on your anhedonia if you have a touch of it. Anoxia is a deficit of oxygen in the tissues and cells. Acute anoxia i: asphyxia. Chronic anoxia may be due wholly to frequent or daily exposure to carbon monoxide in the atmosphere—the carbon monoxide crowds out oxygen. Again it is often due to slow metabolism or a low metabolic rate. Shallow breathing alone may account for chronic anoxia, although it is hardly possible to correct shallow breathing by conscious active deep breathing. Un- conscious or automatic passive deeper breathing induced by a reasonable amount of exercise corrects it; exercise increases the absorption of oxygen by blood, tissues and cells of the body. j Vitamins have a good deal to do with metabolism, the oxidation process, We told here recently how the administration of vitamin D to a hedgehog prevented the hibernation or brought the animal out of its winter dormant state. Vitamin B is essential for the metabolism of carbohydrate material, the main part of human metabolism, energy metabolism, heat metabolism. Thyroid and perhaps other hormones or ductless gland (endocrine) secre- tions participate in the control of metabolism. Iodin activates thyroid gland function and increases met the absorption of oxygen. Girl in her early ‘teens who gets insufficient idoin and develops simple goitre, or hypothyroidism without apparent goitre, is char- acteristically anhedonic, mopish, languid, singuarly lacking in the joyous spirit which is normal in youth.

Now a $5 check doesn’t usually look fishy to me and I sign all comers in a free flowing hand.

Transplanting Hate Now that Germany’s plea for the return of her war-lost colonies is beginning to get a sympathetic hearing in Paris and London, the Nazi government would do well to put a silencer ‘on some of its over-zealous followers who are all hopped up by Herr Hitler’s queer racial theories. Dr. Gruenther Hecht, of the Nazi party’s racial and poli- tical bureau, declares currently that if and when Germany regains her colonies the Nazi doctrine of “nordic supremacy” must immediately be extended to them, “It would be a great relief,” he says, “to drive all Jews, regardless of their citizenship, and degraded whites, from all colonial territory.” That kind of talk is enough to make one lose all sympathy with the German plea for return of the lost territories. The anti-Jewish aberration is bad enough when ig, is confined to Germany ; the world is not likely to accept the prospect of .its _ transplantation overseas. Last One There Wins One of the most useful of the airplane races held at the tecent Miami air show was one which reversed everything you expect of an airplane race. It was a race for slowness, not for speed; half a dozen commercial-type planes were started around ab gg and the prize was offered to the one which finished The idea, of course, was to stress the importance of a low stalling speed. The planes in this race went cruising along at ' pbout 35 miles an hour and when they breasted a head wind they almost seemed to hang motionless in the air. If pleasure flying ever approaches automobile driving in larity, it will be along such a line as this. Other things b equal, a plane that can throttle down to a very low speed fs the safest of planes; further development in this direction ‘would make flight possible for many citizens who cannot handle the high speed planes of today. vi But a week later Rex returned lean and hungry to his farm home.

Spain already is a shambles. Churches, cities and innocent people have been destroyed by bombs. Now it is China’s universities, cities, hos- pitals, missions ‘stations and schools we helped to build. America has poured tens of millions into China’s missionary enterprises and now Japan is trying to shut the doors of trade in our face, But she can be stopped by boy- cotting all Japanese goods, especially silk, like the co-eds at the University of Washington, Steveris college and so many Catholic and Protestant groups are doing. America buys 70 per cent of Japan’s silk, which 1s the biggest article she exports, Seafoods, mostly canned and toys are exported in large volume Remember that every dollar's worth of Japanese goods goes to buy war supplies. It may mean the death of some brave man defending his home- land and help throw some American out of work. We know what anguish our Amer- ican mothers and sisters suffered dur- ing the World War. We know what the Ohinese, Japanese, Spanish and Italian women must be suffering with their men fighting to defend their home country or forced to invade an- other man’s country.» A half-hearted embargo against the tryant Mussolini dealt him a hard. blow, but a world-wide boycott of Ja- pan by all peace-loving people can force her out of China, Let us hear from more people.
