will utilize it exclusively in the pro-

other fuel using plants. BY this pro-
cess the largest warship can take on
enough fuel for cruise around the
world.

THE NEW COURT HOUSE.

In January, 1900, the question of is
suing and floating $4,000 of Flathead
county bonds, at per cent and on I
2O-year basis, was submitted to the
voters of the county at special cleo
ton, and carried beyond question.
These bonds were designed to provide
funds for the construction of count
house and county Jail, the plans and
site for the same having already been
determined. The bonds were adver-
tised and sold to Chicago concern,
subject to the propriety of the issue
and the deal was considered closed,
when the lawyers discovered that the
bonds were not valid. They had
been authorized at special election
which was entirely contrary to law.
That settled the cathop. The ques-
ton was again submitted last fall and
every requirement of the statutes was
complied with. Today the bonds are
virtually sold to the Conrad National
bank, the plan and site is still avail.

What a Newspaper Should Be.

Mr. Melville E. Stone, general man
ager of the Associated Press, read a
paper before the American News
paper Publishers Association at it's
recent meeting in New York city, en-
titled "The Commercial Side of the
Newspaper" in which he said some
interesting things and from which we
quote the following:
"First-I hope you will agree that a
newspaper should be the end and aim
of it's owner, and not a means to an
end, if it is to be a last
! ing success. It must win the
confidence of the public, and
| if it to be a lasting success. It must
win the confidence of the public, and
to do this it must be admittedly wise
and truthful; it must be just and
forceful In short, it must give such
direction to the public mind as will
command at least a large measure IF
public approval.
How many, think you, of the daily
newspapers of this country are con

that end? How many deserve public
confidence? Certainly not those
owned by street car magnates
or railway corporations, or Standard
Oil monopolists. And the number VI
these is not inconsiderable.
81 know of at least half dozen
cities in which one or more of the
daily newspapers are owned by the
street car magnates. Then there arc
others owned by copper kings or null
ti-millionaire dry goods men or rich
bankers. Or (and claim indul
gence) they are avowed party organs
in which, as Bishop. Warburton said
Orthodoxy is my doxy, heterodoxy is

Sorghum for Feed.

The following article in relation
to the growing of sorghum for
coarse feed, was contributed by
Mr.. h Chris man, who is engaged
extensively in farming in Iowa,
and who has lately secured large
real estate interests in Grant
county.
For COWS and other stock cattle Sor-
ghum (cane), by all who have used it,
is generally given the preference. 1t
can be grown successfully from North
Dakota to Texas. Thin land is pre-
ferred and no extra rainfall is re-
CURED. 1t is much relied on in Kan
sas, and is sown there in very large
area. | have grown it successfully in
Grant county, S. D., sowed in fresh
breaking too late to SOW flax. 1t may
be sowed as early as June lst and as
late as July 4th. 1t yields about two
tons on light soil and on rich land all
you want to handle. 1t can be sown
broadcast on old land or on new
breaking with drill. If light it may
be cut with the binder and shocked
like wheat. If heavy, cut with the
mower when it begins to head and ex-
pose to sun and wind till ready to be
shocked or stacked: or it may be let
stand uncut and pastured like corn
stalks. Both cattle and horses prefer
it to any other dry feed, and it keeps
them in better condition than either
straw, hay or millet. We prefer corn
stalks, whether cut up or left standing,
in Iowa, to any other feed except
sorghum, but all who have tried sor-
ghum here are enthusiastic about it.
Seed can be had in Sioux City or in
St. Paul, and will cost about Sl.OO a
bus hel.

Twin Brooks,S D. Mar. Is, 1901.
Mr.. Editor notice in the
Twin Brooks correspondence of
the Milbank Review an aspersion
upon the German people Of this
community for holding a church
service a week ago last Sunday.
The writer says "some kind of
a public meeting was held in
the German church. The fact
is that many of our people, know
ing that the public schools were
all running, did not think that
the prohibition by the township
board applied to church meet
ings. However, | would say for
the information of our critic,
that the only kind of public
meetings the Germans of this
neighborhood are won't to hold
on Sundays are their church SER
vices. 1t doesn't need a small
pox scare nor board Of health
notice to close some of our Eng
lish churches-they easily re-
main closed most of the time
without anything of this kind.
Very respectfully yours,
JULIUS RUNGE.
