of our grand young commonwealth.
We must have state pride, and it
should be cultivated.
In past years our state has been i'm

Now the hour has arrived for us to
make up our minds that a state hat is

here for the purpose of building and
good enough to make money in is good
enough to live in and good enough to
die in.
State pride can be cultivated by
identifying our surroundings in the

shade trees and adjoining u homes.

SEEDING IN NORTH DAKOTA

DEVILS LAKE, n. D.-If we should
get another cold snap the present year
VIII be remembered as one i'm which seed
ing started three times. During the last
days of February and early in March
enough seed was sown and enough general
work done on the fields of North Dakota
TO warrant the assertion that seeding had
commenced. The warm weather of those
days followed. of course, by frost, which,
though not severe was sufficient to put
a stop TO field work. Within the past
week the weather has warmed up again.
and though IL has been cloudy in the var
ley, and drying had progressed slowly
iarther west the sun has shone. the fields
have dried again and seeding is again in
progress. Should this condition continue
II will be most unusual as the average
time for the beginning of seeding is along
about the end of the first week in ADrif
Hence 1t would not be surprising for the
drills and harrowS again to be put out of
business for few days.
throughout the state the fields are in
ideal condition for work or they will be
as soon as the frost is out a couple of
inches more. The snowfall all over the
state has been very light, and the only
complaint heard is of lack of moisture
A shower any time within few weeks
would remedy this condition where II
exists. The average of land plowed is
large and the prospects for a large crop
acreage are excellent. 1t is predicted that
on account of the excellent condition of
the fields and the high price of wheat
the wheat area will be unusually large.

THREsHINe WHEAT in OREGON

According to the Portland (Ore) Tele-
gram, threshing is now quite general
throughout the wheat belt of Oregon
something never heard of before at this
time OF year. Two factors in the deveI-
opment of the wheat and stock country
are responsible for this condition of at
fairs. year ago last winter, throughout
the stock country forage became so scarce
there was great loss of stock. Last
summer the stockmen prepared for a
hard winter by cutting immense guam
titles of wheat hay. fearing the alfalfa
would not suffice. The winter. however,
was very mild, and but little feeding was
necessary. The price OF wheat scared 10
the dollar neighborhood. Consequently.
when the spring opened. stockmen found
themselves with large quantities of
wheat hay on hand, and wheat bringing
50 cents bushel. They are now rum
ming this hay through the threshine ma
chine to get the wheat. which they win
sell for a handsome profit As a general
thing, this hay does not carry heavy
values In wheat: but with the price at the
present figure there is profit in thresh-
ing 1t. Reports received at the indus
trial headquarters of the Oregon Railway

ton is quite general in the wheat belt.

seem to be running to their full capacity.

that the south is now consuming between
