\ Weather Forecast,

Although Prof. Irl f. Hicks, the St.
Louis weather vender. occasionally
misses it, his forecasts are generally in
terestlng and as near correct as any COM
ing from rival prophets. His predictions
for February put down the 9Th and 7th
as the reactionary period, to be followed
by much local storminess. The 18th is
the central day OF the next regular storm
period, when very warm temperature.
enormous rainfalls with thunder and
lightning in many places. turning to
snow, and followed at the close by ex-
treme cold, will be the natural order. He
names the 10Th, 18th and 14th as the days
OF greatest activity and danger. Phe-
nominal fluctuations of temperature
warm here and zero yonder-with rapid
changes, will characterize all the distur-
Dances during the remainder of the
month. Regions to the northward will
have heavy SHOWS and billiards., with ex-
treme and sudden drops of the mercury,
that will cali for prudent vigilance.

The PrOhibitOry Law Sustained.


The state supreme court Wednesday
rendered its opinion on the validity of
the present state prohibition law. The
main point in the case was whether the
law now on the statute books would have
to be re-enacted to comply with the pro-
visions of the Wilson law which makes
the sale of original packages in prohi-
bition states, illegal. The court held
that 1t was not necessary to re-eDact the
law. The decision of the court is long.
covering at length all the points raised in
the case, and citing large number of
authorities. All the judges concur. The
most important paragraph of the de-
cisicn reads:
A majority of this court is of the opin-~
ion that both the Wilson law and the
prohibitory law of this state are valid
enactments and that the final arbitrator
of the question-the supreme court of
the United Stntes-will so rule at a day
not Distant; and We are unanimous in
viewing this case as one IN which sub
ordirate court should give the benefit of
the doubt, II any. in favor Of the consti-
nationality OF the laws in question. To
do so is only to observe a tir2ly settled
rule OF statutory construction.

A Plan to Irrigate in North Da-
kOta by Means Of Wind.
Mills.
Important Decision Of the SUI
prenle Court in Favor Of
Prohibition.
Prof. Hicks Issues His Schedule
of Weather Ordered for Feb
ruary.
The Wind Mill Irrigation i'Ian.

Apropos of the agitation in various
parts of the state upon the subject of ir-
rigation, w. W. Barrett of Ramsey coun-
ty, president of what is known as the
Forestry, Meteorological, Water Supply
and Scientific association, presents
novel but probably valuable plan for
drouth relief, by means of wind mills. In
the course of a long article. this we'll
known North Dakota writer calls atten-
tion to the immense water supply to be
found but few feet below the surface of
the very lands most affected by lack of
rains. He says wells varying from 30 to
IS feet, or in some instances little
lower depth, will furnish such an amount
of water for irrigation as will richly pay
for the labor and expense of their under
taking. A go'd wind mill Is then rec
commended. One of ample size and lift
ing power can be purchased for from $50
to SIS. 1t would probably be found de-
sirable, says Mr.. Barrett, to connect a
reservoir with the well-the lumber for
which would cost say S25; thus making
total outlay of only 500. The we'll
should be sunk on elevated land. or the
reservoir elevated some distance above
the ground, from which altitude the
water would flow where conducted in
bitches and laterals for the benz fit of the
crops. Let the water be applied at the
time of seeding, and again in June and
July, and later as it NAV be needed.
The originator of this method of irri-
cation demonstrates by careful figuring
that two inches of water evenly dis
tributed would IN most cases be amply
sufficient for moistening the ground.Two
inches of water is IS 04O gallons per acre,
SO that pump raising 675 gallons per
minute would water about % acres every
"a hours, or 160 acres in eight days and
nights. This, he claims, would add to
the yield of gram at least 20 bushels per
acre, giving an increase Of $500 bushels
of wheat, which, at 80 cents per bushel,
affords gain of 5000 on every quarter
section so cropped and irr,gated-less
the expense of 500 for pump and reser-
voir.
Serious consideration might be given
to this matter in localities afflicted by
past crop failures, or even in the more.
favored sections
