Coal.

Editor Warnock of the Jamestown
Capital speaks us follows of Repre-
sentative Williams bill requiring the
use of native coal in the various put.
lie institutions of the state:
Representative Williams has intro.
duced a bill in the legislature requir.
ing the public institutions of North
Dakota to $ coal mined within the
state. We rather like the spirit of
this bill. and if proper safeguards can
be constructed about it to prevent
the coal owners from forming Il trust
and robbing the state in the deal we
believe the plan is a good one. 1t
would keep thousands of dollars in
the state that otherwise will go into
the Golfers of the coal barons of the
east. Not only this, but it would en-.
courage the development of our coal
mines and would probably lead to Il
more general consumption of our
home product by our people. If the
coal could he had ut IL reasonable fig.
IRE inventive genius would Soon fur
nish stoves suitable for buaning it.
There need be no apprehension of
coal owners forming a trust. The
native product is too plentiful. 1t
underlies a region comprising nearly
$4,000 square miles, in which no less
than fifty mines are now being
worked to a greater or less degree.
Besides. by a provision of the state
constitution, which MI. Williams sue.
ceeded i'll getting inserted, all public
lands bearing Ignite coal, which
shall come into the possession of the
state, can never be sold, but are to be
leased in such manner as the legis.
lature may provide. Section l55 of
the constitution reads as follows:
SEC. 1855. The coal lands of the
state shall never he sold, but the leg.
islative assembly may, by general
law, provide for leasing the same.
The words "coal lands" shall include
lands bearing Ignite coal.
This is one of the most important
provisions in the constitution and
those who have not studied the con
stitution carefully may have over
looked it. All that is necessary to
popularize our native coal, develop
this great industry, give employment
to thousands of laborers, furnish
cheap fuel to all portions of North
Dakota and keep within the state
thousands of dollars now being sent
out yearly to eastern coal barons, is
to secure lower transportation rates
OIL all railroads and compel all state
institutions to use Dakota coal. The
regulation of rates within the state is
entirely within the power of the leg
islaturc and no more important legis
lation, affecting greater interests. can
be brought before the present body
than this. The Mandan Pioneer in
speaking of the unjust rates now OK
acted by the railroad companies OH
on this commodity says: eff tho
Northern Pacific would haul II ira il
load of Ignite coal to Fargo, consist
ing of twenty cars, with fifteen tons
of coal in cach-a total of 800 tons
for $l.25 a ton-say 1915 for the trair
the people of Fargo would for oncc il
their lives get II very cheap fuel
That coal could be retailcd in Fargo
for $S Il ton by the single ton, o.
$2.75 by the car load delivercd.-Bis

Secretary Rusk on Mutton.

In discussing the sheep industry in
his first report, just published, Mr..
Rusk says of muttonE "A canvass Of
the principal cities of the country
would evidently show that consump.
ton has doubled, a rate of increase
twice as rapid as the advance of pop
ulation. The healthfulness of NUT
ton, its suitability for summer use in
war; climates and its growing popu-
larity as highly fed animals of the
best mutton breeds become more
common in II markets, contribute
to the rapidly charging demand. 1t
is important that this branch of sheep
raising should receive greater atten.
ton" We do not believe the supply
of tirst-class mutton in this country
is at all liable to become too large.

Some time since. the Alert referred
to tie best tree claim in the country
as belonging to Mr.. Wanner of Pin
gree, This was u mistake as every.
one in that part of the country knows.
The trees are on the farm of w. NJ.
Bartholomew and their present fine
condition is due to his care and judg.
ment in attending to them. There
are four varieties growing on the
farm, but the best of all is the white
willow which had a five summers
growth and now by actual measure.
ment shows a height of twenty-five
feet. This seems almost too tall IL
tree story for North Dakota, but it is
true. as the Alert is assured by the
owner. The trees We're planted from
slips, and are believed to be the best
kind by all means to set out in this
climate. They trim themselves after
getting up a little ways, and the
trunks grow up into beautiful straight
poles. There is no use in planting
the slips on sod. Mr.. Bartholomew
tried that and made poor success.
The only sure way to get the trees
started properly is to plow as deep as
possible and set out in rich. free
ground. Of course the care after.
wards is the next condition Of il sue.
cessful growth. The next best grow.
e1 is the cottonwood. but the white
willows, planted i'm rows eight feet
apart, with trees three feet apart,
will beat them all.-Jamestown
