The creameries at Hannaford,
Cooperstown and McHenry are
all in operation and the farmers
are now getting good hard cash
for their milk aud cream which
makes them Independent as to
where they buy their groceries
and other products, They can
walk into any store and plank
down the cash for what they
want and can take advantage Of
the cash discount. This helps a
whole lot. Creameries are q
good thing for any farming com
munity and North Dakota far
mers are waking up to this fact.

Those who will persist in closing
their ears against the continual re-
commendation of DR.. Kings New Dis

long and bitter fight with their troub-

mination. Read what T. r. Beall, of

Teachers Institute.

!. The Griggs county teachers
for 1904 was held in the
primary school building begin
ming June 6 and closing June IL.
Supt. w. E. Hoover, of Park
River. N. OAK, conducted class
es in U. S. History, Grammar,
Advanced Reading and Arith-
metic. A general survey of
history was taken and in gram.
mar lthe pronoun was studied.
1t is with this part of speech
that the most errors occur in
speaking. hence the need of re-
viewing it's uses and case forms.
The class in advanced reading
studied: ga Hymn to the North
Star" Special attention was
given to thought getting and
reference was made to figures Of
speech. The method of instruct
ion employed in this class is one
which should be followed in the
higher grades in our rural
schools as Well as in the city
schools.
Two methods of presentation
was given in the analysis of pro.
blems in Arithmetic and were
found Of value. New ideas in
number were brought up for dis
cussion aud the teachers
thoughts were directed in new
channels.
Miss Margaret Haley. OF
Cooperstown, conducted the
work in Primary Reading.
Numbers Language, Calisthenics
and Nature Study. To illus
trate her methods Miss Haley
had classes from the beginning
and primary grades. In her
characteristic happy manner
Miss Haley showed how she in
terested and busted every mem
ber of her class.
The attendance at the institute
by teachers was excellent, and
the spirit of kindness. co-opera
ton, and earnest endeavor or
the part of all present was com
mendable.
We were glad to see so many
visitors among US. Their pres
ence assured US of their interest
in the work in which we are en-
gagged and was a means of en-
couragement.

RED ANTS DESTROYING
THE BOIL WEEYIL
Imported Insects Show Their Value in
the Cotton Fields of the
Lone Star State.

The Department Of Agriculture makes
positive announcement OF the effective
ness OF the recently discovered Guate-
malan ant in destroying the boil weevil
with which Texas cotton is now in
Tested.
The announcement is made in connec-
ton with the publication OF pamphlet
by o. r. Cook, Of the Bureau Of Plant
Industry. and discoverer Of the ant, pre-
pared after an exhaustive series Of ex-
pcriments.
The conclusions reached are that the
ant destroys the weevils; that 1t IN
jures no form Of vegetation; that IL
takes from the cotton plant nothing ex-
eept the nectar secreted for II on the
leaves and floral envelopes. and that the
habits Of the insect are such as 10 make
il readily capable OF domestication and
colonization in the cotton fields OF
Texas
The only questions unsolved are as q
whether the ants Will survive the win
ter IN Texas, and can be prOpagated IN

tical purposes for which they have beer
introduced.

VIII be ready to advertise for bids from

as possible.
DIR. Galloway. who Is representing the
Secretary OF Agriculture in this work.
said yesterday that 1t would take the
Government several weeks to so over the
plans. but as soon as the examination
was completed bids would be advertised
for. There will be two proposals. one for
the construction Of the entire building,
including everything. and the other for
doing separate portions of the work.
An interesting feature Of the plans
which the architects have submitted is
that they are complete for the whole
structure. This Is contrary to the usual
custom of the Government. but Secre-
Iary Wilson was determined 10 know ex-
actly what he had before him before he
began. Consequently, when the pro-
posals are issued the specifications Will
: be for the building complete in every
particular.
