NO MORE "BUM CHECKS,"
One of the commendable pieces of
legislation enacted at the present ses
Bton at Bismarck, is the measure which
1$ popularly known by the classical
sobriquet, "the bum check bill." This
measure is not aimed at forged checks,
or checks that have been tampered
V4th, as might be inferred from the
words "bum checks," but it prohibits
the use of checks when the owner has
tip funds in the bank.
-An amendment, which was added in
tile senate, provides that if the writer
of the check has made an arrangement
with his banker to take care of tho
over-draft, the check may be used.
Tjiis amendment, however, does not
Impair the principle of the bill which
was designed to protect the pub
He.
As soon aft the bill becomes effective
It will be a felony to issue a check, on
a bank in which the writer has no
funds, or if the check is for a greater
amount than the writer's bank balance,
unless the person who issued the check
|has made arrangements with the bank
'$6 take care of the amount.
Over-drawing bank accounts has be
come a public nuisance in North Da
ffcota as any one who has done an ex
pensive business In the state will
testify. It Is a shiftless, unbusiness
like procedure, to say the least, and it
fig time the evil was corrccted.
THE DEMONSTRATION FARMS.
The Forum is in receipt of the fol
lowing Interesting letter:
McLeod, N. D., Feb. 15.—I came
^to McLeod from Minnesota in the
spring of 1912 with tho intention
Of looking over land with the view
of purchasing some land and farm
ing it. I went r.Ver the MeLcod

the fine grove of trees starting, the
I flno garden and potato crop, saw
how well the corn and oats produc-
1
«d. the alfalfa was very fine and
this induced me to buy land and
Jpjild upon it near the demonstra
tion farm.
I have learned many valuable
ratlings from this farm and I know
good many mrre people who
treat
ave had the same experience as
have had. I think it would be a
mistake to discontinue this
farm as your paper stated a few
^Jflays ago. It would be far better
*jto increase Hie scope of the dem

tinue them at a time when the
ktate is changtng from wheat rats

^The Forum reproduces this letter
ftijfas prominently because it expresses
concisely the views of many other
farmers, as given to The Forum either

This is to test the possibilities of the

itheir people to do.
The increased cost of living through

Ihai flour made of other substances
Ithasn wheat, or of those substances
mixed with wheat, might provide peo
ple with healthful food quite as nutri

the same time cheaper.
Austrian bakers are now compelled
]1»y law to use at least 30 per cent po
Ltato-meaJ in making their bread. Tho
ibureau of chemistry's potato-meal
[bread has been baked with from 25 to
jfc per cent potato-meal and the remain
ing percentage wheat. The most satis
factory loaves in combining economy
f&nd appearance were those made with
the minimum percentage allowed in
Austria or less. The loaves made with
more than 30 per cent potato-meal
were not so satisfactory as they were
heavier and less attractive in form.
The bread has a rather coarse texture
and dark appearance, but possesses a
distinctive and agreeable flavor. It al
so retains moisture for a much longer
period than ordinary wheat bread.
THE BOY 8COUT8.
Boy Scout troops all over the coun

lifth anniversary of the founding of
the order. Although the Bcouts were
organized, in this country but five
years ago this month, they already

growth.
There are hundreds of other move
ments for interesting and inspiring
boys, but most of them seem to be al
ways trying to get the boys to do
what the grown-ups think they ought
to. The Boy Scout movement has
been an effort to find out the kind of

mal boy takes to Indian and frontier
life like a fish to his native element.
Don't expect live boys will sit still*
long listening to lectures on good con
duct. After you have talked about
five minutes they are hiding each oth

other's arms. Get them out of doors
following the woodland trail and dis
order disappears.
A boy may not be willing to work
five minutes piling up wood for the
kitchen fire. But he will grub around
for hours collecting dry sticks for a
camp fire, lugging water and cooking
bacon and eggs. The meal of his own
cooking may be smoky and burned,
but it tastes better than the best home
dinner. Incidentally on the hike and
in the camp, the principles of manli

be taught.

A Remedy
For All Pain
"The efficiency of any drug" says Dr. O. P.
Rohblna, "is known to us by the results we
obtain from its use. If we are able to con
trol pain and disease by means of any pre
paration, we certainly are warranted In its
use. One of the principal symptoms of all
dUeases is pain, and tliis Is what the patient
most often applies to us for, 1. e. something
to relieve his pain. If we can arrest this
promptly, the patient Is most liable to trust
la us for the other remedies which will effect
a permanent cure. One remedy which 1
have used largely in my practice is Antl
kamnia Tablets. Many and varied are their
use*. I have put them to the test on many
occasions, and have never been disappoint
ed. 1 found them especially valuable for
headaches of malarial origin, where quinine
was being taken. They appear to prevent

for headaches of a neuralgic origin, and es
pecially for women subject, to pain s at certain

"Three minutes with its face toward

who is a soldier in that army I have
mentioned.
The foe this army Jg flghting is bad
lighting and unnecessary glare—the
glare of glased paper, polished desks,

too little light, but, most of all, poorly

Business men can measure exactly
the value of good llahts. The AVest
inghouse & General Electric Co. proved
that the wages paid to a man for six
minutes each day is sufficient to pay
for efficient lighting for him to work
by. Yet in these very plants—my in
formation comes from one of their own
engineers—under the old system of
poor lights men would waste the equiv
alent of an hour's labor every day.
H»ncc the result: Bad lights cost the
employer one hour's wages, while good
lights cost the employer only six min
utes in wages. In one big plant poor
lighting cost $10,000 a month, until a
young engineer showed how good
lights would stop that leak.

shaded lights," Mr. Horner of the New

Rivals the Eagle. with
HE eagle Is our national bird. Isn't he?" asked Jack ai the children
came to daddy for tbe evening story.
"Ho certainly is," replied claddjr, "and he is a glorious old bird."
"Why do they call the eagle the •bird of freedomrM asked Eve
lyn in her torn.
"Why," replied daddy, "I suppose It is because he Is such a wild, free, won
derful creature and lord of the air. But I have in mind a bird that is a likely
rival to the eagle as the 'bird of freedom.'"
"What's that, daddy?" asked Jack eagerly. "A condor7*
"You silly!" cried Evelyn in disgnst. "Why, a condor is an awful Mfd!"
"The vulture is not exactly a lordly bird," commented daddy, "though he's
bfpr enough, and he's about king of the roost down on the Andes mountains in
South America. But I have in mind the seagull.
"Somehow I don't know of a freer, more splendid bird in some respects
than the seagull. He Is very small beside tbe eagle, yet the little fellow files
splendidly. Tbe eagle is very popular from a romantic standpoint. He builds
his eyrie upon some Jutting crag high above the clouds and thinks nothing of
swooping down and bearing homo in his talons a little lamb for the eaglets'
dinner.
"The eagle is a fierce bird, but there is nothing fierce aboat tbe little gray
seagull, though he can fly so fast. Passengers on the fast liners walk the
decks and watch clouds of these gulls following tbe ship, fast as it is, with
as much ease as if it were a little sailboat. They feed upon the scraps of
food which are thre*vn from the ships, and when they are satisfied they utter
strange, harsh cries and dart ahead like the wind and soon leave the big, fast
liner away behind as they wing for the shore so far away.
"Occasionally one will see them diving for fish. It is great sport They
awoop down like a flash and soon reappear with wriggling fishes in their bills."
"Don't they ever rest, daddy?" asked Evelyn.
"Ob, yes! You will see them on any of our beaches, hopping along the
sand and eating little shellfish which have been washed up. They will let
you come quite near them. Then they will rise lazily and fly for a moment,
no faster than a hen. Then away they go like a shot, bound for somewhere
or other.
"Good night, now, kiddles.**
"Good night, daddy.**
THE FOE THAT ROBS
US OF OUR EYESIGHT
Philadelphia lHiWie Ledger: I met
and dined the other evening with one
corps of a grand army of engineers.
This particular section of the army is
fighting a foe that stealthily robs from
us our eyesight.

shadow and a dangerous corner make
a fine combination for an accident."
The illuminating engineers in this
town do not stop with their work in
office and factory. School buildings,
the home, the church, the club and the
printing press are all fields for their
activity.
"If a light is so bright," one of these
experts explained, "that after looking
at it and when you close your eyes the
impression remains there, your eye has
been injured to some extent. Tt has
been proved that such an imprint of
the sun may continue half a day, prov
ing the terrible peril in exposing chil
dren's eyes to that direct glare."
Count the men and women wearing
glasses and the number appalls you.
Too highly glazed pages of books, un
shaded lamps and unprotected electric
lights in cars, homes and schools have
aided enormously the business of the
optician. But among the illuminating
engineers who are flghting the glare
foe I find some distinguished oculists
and eye specialists.
If these men thought only of their
own purse they would advise all of us
to go ahead In the old and badly-light
ed fashion.
It requires exactly 100 typewritten
pages to transcribe the Pennsylvania
laws dealing with the question of light.
Not one word in those 100 pages about
a standard of light.
We are told to have this and that
and the other "properly" illuminated,
but we are not told how good or bad
"properly" may be. If an ignoramus
school board wishes to ruin the eyes of
forty pupils with misplaced windows
there is no law to check it.
It is easy to get too much light. Mr.
Markle, the Willow Grove electrician,
says that 8-candle power were substi
tuted for 16-candle power lamps for
decorative purposes at that park. The
bigger lamps made too much light.
Better to have double the number of
smaller ones.
And Mr. Markle must know, for he
has to look after more than 40,000
lights at Willow drove. Yes, these il
luminating engineers are doing a fine,
bier job. 1 suggest for them the motto:
Save the Eye!
