Naming i Of Farms, q q,

In England, all the estates are
known by the estate name, rather
than by the name Of the owner.
Why should this not be truein this
country and especially in this state
where the farmers constitute the
aristocracy Towns, political di-
visions, churches, and often schools
are designated by name, and if the
reason for these names is good, the
same reason can be assigned for the
naming Of farms. A few are so
named, notably .:Sylverton = and
g Lake View" Then, too, every
farmer should have printed station
cry, the same as, the business man.
A cut, distinctive of the farm a
bit Of scenery, the mansion house
or farm buildings, a fine bunch Of
stock or a field of growing grain =
should be printed on the stationery
It would not only be q matter Of
pride and pleasure, but would en-
hance the business importance Of
the farm and its owner Farmers
are getting telephones and rural
mail service, and with these there
should be the naming Of farms and
the use Of distinctive printed sta
tionery Devils Lake Inter Ocean

THE GOODRICH CITIZEN.

Henry Buechler came over from
Fessenden Monday evening and is
now employed as assistant grain
buyer at the G.. Doering & Co. ele-
vator.
Goodrich has been the rendez-
yous for a number of prominent
attorneys of the state. It is ru-
mored that it has a significant
meaning.
# I. and w. M. Workman, of
Wells Co., were in town Monday.
The former has finished threshing
and reports rs bushels of wheat to
the acre.
VIM. j, Ehren, who resides eight
miles north of Goodrich, has two of
his best horses laid up with what
is pronounced by DR.. Howey as a
blood disease.
County Treasurer Root has been
over from the county seat the past
few days assisting threshing on his
farm a few miles northeast Of here.
He returned to Washburn today.
Fred Jenner, ST., purchased the
Avery threshing outfit which was
uhloaded here the latter part of last
week, and has taken it out to his
farm and will start threshing his
large crop.
Crops in this vicinity are turn
ing out good. The wheat is a lit
tie better than last year and feed
grain is fully as good, which is very
satisfactory. Little flax has been
threshed yet, but on an average, it
will come up to last years.
States Attorney Nuessle, Of Nc
Lean county, accompanied by Atty.
|B. G.. Skulason and Fred 81. Lar
|son, drove in from Washburn last
Saturday, Mr.. n uessle to look after
ms large legal practice in this end
OF the county, and the latter two to
hunt. Mr.. Skulason is one Of the
prominent legal lights Of Grand
Forks, and has very large prac-
tice in that city. Mr.. Larson, we
are informed, is making arrange
ments to locate at Turtle Lake,

a very pleasant gentleman and is no
doubt a man of ability, and we wish
him success in his new locality.

yield will average from fifteen to.
twenty five bushels per acre, and a
good deal is grading No. northern.
Those who do not treat their seed

grain is being graded one grade,
lower than where seed was treated,

GREAT UNDEYEL LOPED n
DAKOTA INTERESTS

DAKOTA INTERESTS!
In past years, when conside dering
the enormous wealth that this state
possesses in its coal fields, we have
felt like congratulating ourselves,
and The PIONEER has frequently
called attention to this great unde-,
yeloped asset. But this consider
alton has not been with the view
entirely that the products Of these
coal fields should be burned in
wasteful boilers, for the purpose OF
generating steam engines: We all: all
know that a small percentage Of the
coal is utilized in the steam engine
I. and we have all been looking for
the day when there would be less
waste. IN,
It would seem that we are meas
ureably approaching near that day.
As some Of our readers are aware,
tests were made at the st. Louis
exposition which showed that North
Dakota Ignite coal instead of being
burned in a boiler and steam made
therefrom, could be used to much
better advantage by liberating the
gasses, and using them in gas en-
gines, without the medium of steam.
Gas engines have not been brought
to the high state Of perfection by
the makers in this country that ex-
lists in European countries, and gas
is not used nearly as much as a
motive power here as there. This
should be changed. The tests at
st. Louis demonstrated that one
pound Of Ignite, converted into
gas and used in a gas engine would
produce the same power as two and
ashalf pounds Of the best Yough-
iogheny coal, burned in a boiler,
and the force thereof used in steam.
This is a great showing, and one
that is attracting the attention of
the governmental inits contemplated
irrigation works in the Ignite coal
/. regions and also Of t the Northern
Pacific railroad. L
We understand that the North
ern Pacific management is fully
alive to the value Of Ignite as a gas
producer for its stationary plants,
and in the near future the company
will, when it needs to largely in
crease it's power capacity in some
North Dakota town where Ignite
is available, erect gas producer,
and use the gas thus produced from
Ignite in gas OF explod oding engine.
The department. that has this mat
ter in charge is satisfied that this
will be an economical way Of pro-
dncing power.
Ameriic ans are. always i on the alert
for new inventions, and new i, y devel-
opments sc old theories. 1T will
