the Agricultural college At Fargo for
three months has returned to his farm
ten miles northeast Of this city and will
do some experimental work this year.
He informs US that TO students have
afforded the various departments this
year, and during the winter are instruct

farmer can spend winter with profit at
this college. The tuition fee is nominal,
amounting from five to ten dollars
a term. The hoard is the greatest cost.

D. S. Wolfe and wife recently visited
their son Caleb at Wolseley, Canada
Mr.. Wolfe tells some interesting things
of the great Northwest. From Portal to
Regina the country is Just like floor
and he says the farmers prepare their
ground better and p,r in their crops
better than the North Dakota farmer
does. They make practice of breaking
| in June and July and not putting in a
crop on the new ground until the next
season. They work their new land up
like an onion bed and always figure on
getting ten bushels of grain more to the
acre in that manner. At Regina, there
| is a governmental experiment station
which is doing a vast amount of good.
Withal. Mr. Wolfe is satisfied with his
Surrey farm and has no intention of ever
becoming a subject to King Edward.

believes that if every farmer wnged war

could be eradcated.

j. =. Coy, a successful Surrey farmer,

his experience at farming last season. He
had loco bushels of macarohi wheat
which averaged 81 bushels per acre.

bushel when hard wheat was selling
for only as much at the time. The wheat

ARE ASKED TO CONTRIBUTE TO THIS DEPARTMENT.

it may have cost you quite dearly, it will
be we'll to let others know whatyou have
learned. We want you to ask questions
thru these columns and someone will
answer them. Address all communica
tons to The INpEPEN DENT, Care Busy
Farmer Department.
Don't be backward in this movement
il you do not care to write call at this
Office and talk with the editor. Tell us
how you prepare your ground for the
various kinds of seeds. What kind OF
seed yen would SOW, when to SOW it and a
hundred and one other things. What
kind Of trees to plant and how to plant
them. You can help to make this
department the brightest Of any in the
paper. You will not agree with every
thing that is said. That's all the more
the reason for discussion. II we all
agreed, there would be no use for such
a department.
A poulty farm close to Minot should
prove veritable gold mine. With the
right kind Of feed and buildings hens
will lay in winter and with eggs at 3
cents a, dozen, in the cold months there
should be no trouble in making the
project pay. Poultry for exportcould be
raised on large scale.
Many farmers will SOW timothy seed
this spring. 1t thrives-in this state and
does better than prairie grass. Sow on old
ground with grain using quarts to the
acre.
Don't be discouraged if rain does not
happen to appear for week or two
The ground is in a line condition for
blowing and the largest yield of grain in
the state was the result of sowing in dry
ground. There is no reason to believe
that We will not have a bumper crop this
season

tests which should be tried by every
farmer before sowing seed. They tested
By scattering fax, corn and wheat on wet

Some had strong roots and some showed

Potato Planting.

Il. w. Dalzisi, Lynch. n. d.. in The
Dakota Farmer: Mr.. Chapman's inquiry
about potato planting leads mc TO give
my way manure the potato ground
very heavily. J plow furrow about s
inches deep witha sulky plow, dragging
garden cultiyator in the furrow behind
the plow. The cultivator pulls the loose
dirt back into the furrow pulverizing at
the same time, making is just about the
right depth for Alanting and giving the
furrow a soft bottom for four or five in
ches down. The advantage OF this is
that man can drop the seed Just as fast
as he can walk and they remain just
where they strike, hence it is nnnecess-
AIRY to stoop over atall. Tin blowing tho
next furrow, the horse steps on or the
pillow runs on the seed it is not crushed.
After dropping plow two burrows with
out the cultivator, blowing them all the
same depth then hitch to the cultivator
a gain for the next one that want to
plant in. This is easy all around: The
man rests while riding the pillow; the
team rests while he drops the seed and
the seed rests extra easy on the soft bed
of fine dirt prepared by the cultiyator. I
got a fine stand of plants last year and
dug 1l0 bushels to the acre OF very ex-
cellent potatoes. Not big yield but
better than less.
