view of the thrilling history of Ire
land and the Irish people and of St.
Patrick, their patron saint.

Irishmen who had found here the
liberty and freedom denied them It
home.
Then followed history of distiL-
guished Irishmen who had helped to
make history in the service Of the

was heartily applauded when he as
serted that Irishmen, as patriotic |
would always earnestly /
oppose any alliance between this F.
country and England.

EXPENSIVE Law.
I-HOBo Law PROVES TO BE
AN EXPENSIS . ONE FOR CASss

ANTI-HoBo Law PROVES TO BE
AN EXPENSIS . ONE FOR CASs
COUNTY.
4 Fargo, July 10. If all the counties
through which the railroads run in
North Dakota are doing as much bus
mess as Cass it is costing a consider
able amount for the protection Of the
railroads from the hobo class who
make practice of stealing rides on
freight and other trains.
The law known as the "anti-hobo
law, went into effect a year agoS this
month. It provides that a person
found guilty of stealing a ride on any
train is guilty Of a misdemeanor and
for such offense shall be fined not less
than m $1O0, or from then to ninety days
in the county Jail. The county COM
.mlissioners audited the justice reports
last week and for the three months
ending with June 80 there were forty
seven convictions under the new law.
Figuring all of the cases at ten days
each--for none Of them pay their fines
1T cost Cass county during that time
the sum Of $I54 50 This is probably
a larger amount than in any other
county in the state, but it goes to show
that the new law is an expensive one.

@ jamestown, July TO- The 6-year-old
son of N. B. Merry, who resides 1S
miles southwest Of Jamestown, was
accidentally shot yesterday afternoon,
a 22-calibre bullet passing through the
child's back and inficting probably
fatal wounds. The child has been out
with his older brother who was shoot
ing gophers with the rifle and on their
return to the house the older boy at
tempted to remove the cartridge from
the gun. In doing SO the gun was
discharged and the bullet passed
through the boys back and stomach
leaving an opening through his body.
Physicians were summoned from
jamestown and dressed the wounds.
The shock to the boy was very great
and his recovery is doubtful. The
first thing the little fellow said on re-
covering from the effects Of the chloro-
form was :: Mamma, will you get me
my gun? I want to play with it,
The fact is recalled that about five
years ago brother of the boy was .ac-
.cidentally killed by shooting.

labor saving Methods and Helps In

j have observed SO many farmers
during the past season in Wisconsin
and other states outside Of the potato

were grown in patches" In lien OF

for giving some Of the means OF saving

says a correspondent of Farm, Field
and Fireside
We plant deep enough to permit the
ground to be narrowed with good
drag. Any common harrow win do,
though the teeth should not ba too
long Drag several times from plant

and there viii be no need to make

where more human labor was being
expended on patch of half an acre OF
potatoes than is necessary to cultivate

This great saving of labor is accom-
plished by a judicious use of harrow,

convenient and rapid worker. One
horse and man viii brush over 20 acres
per day. Drag and weeder must be
used often. to be of best service, say
once in five days.
Then in digging time to see people

QUESTIONS OF TlLLAGE.
Shallow and Late Cultivation q
Corn and Potatoea

Shallow and Late Cultivation OF
Corn and Potatoes.
In recent times there has been an Inn
mense amount written and spoken in
favor of shallow and late tillage Of a
crop. Discussing these points in The
National Stockman, Alva Agee of Ohio
says: Some have insisted that cultiva-
ton an inch or an inch and a half deep
was just right and that they wished
they could continue to give such culti-
vation to the crop until it was matured.
This probably illustrates well our tend
ency to run to extremes either run
the cultivators deep and cut off the
roots that are needed or else. try to
scratch the surface SO lightly that the
scratching does little good. Any depth
not over three inches is surface culti-
walton for potatoes or corn, and if the
shovels do not run from two to three
inches deep all of the surface soil is not
put in condition to prevent the loss of
moisture from below. Professor r. 81.
King is always good authority on soils,
and he says that when the loose soil on
top settles down so that moisture rises
within two inches of the surface the
water viii begin to escape and that
surface soil should be stirred again.
Just as an extreme was reached in
reference to shallowness of cultivation,
30 it is with continued late cultivation,
if Professor King is right. On this
point he says: Late in the season, es-
pecially with corn and potatoes, it is
questionable whether cultivation will
not do more harm than good, even
though the mulch has become fairly
firm. 1t is the habit of most crops on
which intertillage is practiced to throw
up in July roots very close to the sur
face, evidently for the purpose Of tax
ing advantage Of the plant food which
capillarity and evaporation tend to
concentrate at the surface and also to-
take advantage of the lighter rains,
which after the soil becomes dry sell
dom penetrate deeper than two. or
three inches" a
Here again Seems possible evidences
that the old customs in growing crop
fixed as a result of experience in past
generations are often much nearer
right than many would suppose. had
supposed that it would be beneficial to
the corn to keep stirring the surface as
late as one had the nerve to start a
horse among the blades under q hot
July sun, as the cultivation would help
In q drought but Professor King tells
us that the plants want the fertility
near the surface and the light showers
and at this time send up little roots
near the surface that should be left
alone. In the black soils of the corn
belt cultivation is stopped when the
corn begins to tassel If not before In
our clay soils would risk the contin-
ned cultivation In corn and potatoes IL
they were practicable and cost nothing.
On a venture should prefer cover
ing of loose soil over the roots until fan
to all the fertility the surface roots
may get out OF the surface III July
when the soil is left undisturbed. But
1t seems that the advocates OF late cen
tinued cultivation Or corn mar be ID
the wrong.
