The discussion by those pres ent indicates an increasing in re Wahpeton, and we predict, as Spring opens, a more united ef fort tcf make our city attractive. In the talk she told of the gen eral iuterst of the citizens: the organized efforts and success of a "Civic Improvement League" in beautifying city park, keep in re re and beautifying approaches to the city by securing help of the school children in making flow, er garden of the weed patches, and in cleaning up unsightly vacant lots. A balanced food is one that contains the food nutrients in the proper proportions for build ing musles, for producing fat, and for keeping up the animal heat. Corn has not enough of the flesh building nutrients to properly nourish ati animal if fed alone. Alfalfa and clover hay have too much of the~flesh making nutients. Feeding the corn and alfalfa, or corn and clo ver gives a balance food. Twelve pounds of alfalfa, eight pounds ground corn, and what or to a a want makes a good daily ra tion, and it can be raised on the North Dakota farms. Fr. Driscoll of Fargo will con duct the services in St. Adal berts church next Sunday. WRESTLING MATCH AT it** Th VI U&'AS FAIR- MOUNT On Monday night Feb. 13th, at Fairmount Frank C.
