three men on bases and two out, Cayon

How to Poison Gophers.

The following method is given by a
farmer who has had long experience
as a certain and effective means OF
preparing poison for gophers, which
are worse this year than usual because
of the dry weather:
To properly prepare the poison
take at least 4 bottles of the strych-
nine. of the usual size of bottles
and thoroughly dissolve the poison in
a quart bottle of water before mixing
it with the wheat If the poison is
left to completely dissolve and placed
in a safe place there is no danger
in getting it ready before hand. Then
take enough boiling water to cover
the wheat to be soaked, and add
about 5 pounds of sugar to sWeeten
the mixture. Gophers like something
sweet and the sugar is a great at
traction to them. When the wheat
is thoroughly soaked with the hot
sweetened water add the dissolved
poison, and thoroughly stir until all
the wheat is well soaked with the
solution The sugar will add a glaze
to the kernels of wheat and it is saic
that the gophers will die even from
licking the kernels and without
eating them the stuff is so effective
when prepared in this way. A gallor
of the water to a bucket two thirds
full of wheat if enough to soak the
grain. If the field is next to prairie
| land gophers will generally run iron
! the grass into the grain and fur
| rough piowed along side the grair
and the poison wheat scattered alons
the furrow will soon destroy all th'
| gophers in that vicinity

the state, there was nothing in the
constitution to prevent the loaning OF
the funds to the institutions for the
purpose Of erecting buildings and re-
placing the money, principal and inter
est from the income of the institu-
tions, and that it was evident the con-
stitution contemplated such course,
because if it could not be done, there
would be no way in which those in
stitutions could be provided with build
ings and equipment.
Mr. Newman's contention was that
the act of congress directed the in
come to be used solely for the support
of the schools, which meant the pay
ing of their current expenses and that
the state must use the money strictly
in accordance with the direction OF
congress. And that there was no eX
igency, because the constitution lef;
the legislature perfectly free to raise
all the money by taxation that was
necessary to support the entire educa
tional system of the state and that
the limit of the state tax to mills
was confined to the expenses of the
state And, that the law authorizing
the bonds was in conflict with the act
of congress and the constitution. and
is void.
that he was solely responsible for the
action of the treasurer. and was ready
to assume the entire responsibility ant
take the consequences, whatever the!
might be.

ARGUMENTS in BOND CASE

The arguments in the institution
bond cases were begun before the
supreme court at Fargo on Saturday
and will be completed today. Assist
ant Attorney General Philbrck made
the argument in the suit against the
state treasurer for $4,000, appealed
from Judge Fisk at Grand Forks. No
argument was made in this case on the
other side.
At the close of this argument Judge
Walln asked leave of the court and
counsel to make a short statement
on behalf of the capitol commission,
giving his views with respect to the
lands granted to the state by congress
for capitol buildings and asked the
court, if practicable. to embody its
views on these lands, in its opinion
The mandamus case was then taken
up, Judge Corliss opening, and contin-
uing his argument until o'clock.
Mr.. Newman, after a short recess,
commenced his argument and cOntin-
ued until $50, when court adjourned
until Monday morning, when the ar
guments will be concluded.
Judge Corliss' position was that the
bonds were bonds of the state within
the meaning of the constitution, but
were not within the debt limit provi-
sion of the constitution, because they
created no state debt; that while the
income from the common school fund
could not be anticipated, because TIE
constitution required the annual dis
tribution of it among the schools OF
