MORNING SESSION..

The irrigation convention recon
vened this morning at 1890, Chairman
Williams presiding. The committee
on credentials reported delegates pre-
snt from nearly every county in the
state.
7. S. Underhill was then intro
duced and spoke along the lines OF
an individual irrigation on a small
scale. The scarcity of winter forage
shut out many cattlemen WHO other
wise would enter the business. and
the absence of forage for finishing"
stock prevented stockmen from real
izing the full profits of the business.
Irrigation. in his opinion, would res
ult in fattened cattle being sent to
! market instead of feeders. He said
he had a small ditch which irrigated
| less thar three acres. 1t supplied
very little water but from this Ian he
took off this year nine and a half
! loads of grass. while from a similar
sized tract adjacent he had cut but
one load. He held that the ground
would freeze as far down as the irri-
CATION water went, thus holding it to
thaw and rise in summer when most
needed. With water on the land at
| the critical time grain and forage
crops in abundance would be assured
each year.
Mr.. Underhill was followed by
Prof. Willard of the state agricultural
college. Picking up an ear OF Burelgh
county corn from the table he said it
proved North Dakota was in the corr
belt. and in fact could wear the belt
for many things if II natural ad
vantages were improved. The state
was not ever a semi arid section and
while it could get along without irri
cation the certainty of water at the
right time would be worth millions
He believed ) acres in every ten coult
be irrigated in this state, while no
more than one in ten could be lrrl
gated in states further west anf

ton convened at schoolhouse, Sat
urday, Nov. IA. at 2:3o P. M.
After singing with Miss Kessler at
the organ, the Reading Circle work
was taken up, Mr.. Foley presiding.
Many interesting points were con-
tanned in this lesson, one being the
use and abuse of drill and concert
work in schoolroom; also too long
continued use of objects in develop
ment of number, the pupil except
swinging on the gate of sense when
he might be making fruitful excur-
sions into the real of reason"
The Algebra recitation ably con-
Quoted by Mr.. Jared consisted main
ly of review of first three fundamen-
tai rules and reducing and simplify
ing algebraic expressions. The les
son for next meeting may be found
in Wentworth's Algebra. pages 4S
to "a. including Division and simple
equations.
: Class in Physics will recite from
State text book to page "a.
At close of recitation the superin-
tendent called attention of teachers
to the law regarding truants and ad-
vised close observance of same.
All present seemed glad to be
there and the interest shown would
indicate that the Meade county
teacher is "alive" in every sense OF
the word. 1t is requested that next
meeting begin at two O'Clock in be-
half of those teachers who are com
PEELED to leave early.
