AS the Grand Forks Herald OBJ
serves, transactions involving millions
hundreds of millions-are now dis
cussed as carelessly and excite no
more interest than the mention of
hundreds of dollars a half century
ago: when the nonfinancial man
tackles the figures involved in some
of the big transactions his head is
likely to be made to swim. For in
stance, the reduction of the stock Of
the Northern Securities company to
one per cent of its former amount,
when the sum involved is away up in
the millions, is discussed as calmly
as farmer would talk about bushel
Of potatoes. The plan is probably all
right for those who are interested,
but when concerns can increase or
diminish their stock in that off-hand
manner it sets a fellow to thinking"

The Grand Forks Herald speaks of

The Grand Forks Herald speaks of
a steam gang plow outfit being ship
ped into Mclean county-as if this
was something unusual. The people
of the eastern part of the state can
hardly appreciate the wonderful
growth on the Missouri slope-especi.
ally Mclean county-during the last
few years. Mclean county has $4,000
people; it was the third county in re-
publican majorities in the last cam
paign; it has al school houses; in
stead of one steam plow there are
twenty steam plows; there are a
dozen newspapers and over fifty post
Offices and score of good towns.
There is still much vacant land in this
empire-land that can be homesteaded
and railroad lands that can be bought
at reasonable price. What IS true
of Mclean county is true of Burleigh,
the northern half Of which is just now
settling up rapidly-is true of EN-
mons, Morton, Mercer, and Oliver
counties bordering on that mighty
thoroughfare the Missouri river. The
Missouri slope offers advantages to
the home-seeker unequaled by any
other region in the world.

Taken to Reform School.

LaMoure Chronicle: On Tuesday of
last week Sheriff Larson escorted Ar
thur Forth, lad of 16 years, to the
state reform school at Mandan, where
the latter will remain until October
LIST, 1909. Arthur has been a very
naughty boy, and it is hoped the re-
straining influence of the reform
school will be potent for his good.
Arthur's parents are highly respect
ed people, living mile or two north
west of Edgeley. On March 4 last
Arthur was given check for 1925
by L. C. Salisbury of Edgeley. He
raised the amount to 5000 and tried to
cash the check at the Edgeley bank.
but without success. He also drew
a check for 5000 and forged the name
of Fred Peek thereon, but payment
was again refused. He then stole a hi.
cycle belonging to James Kipp, rode
the wheel to jamestown and tried to
sell it there. At this point in the in.
glorious cereer of the young man the
majesty Of the law began to get in it's
work. Forth was arrested and taken
back to Edgeley, and the upshot of the
matter was that his father filed com.
plant setting forth the various mis-.
deeds of his hayward son, and pray.
ing the court to order his confinement
in the reform school until he should
attain his majority. Judge Burke
thereupon issued the order, as above
stated. Es..~ I'll "
Arthur spent two or three weeks in
the county Jail at LaMoure, but came
very near escaping therefrom. AS re-
lated in The Chronicle three weeks
ago he and his companion in distress
tunneled through the "solid stone
WALL of the jail, their tools being q
large nail and a broom handle. The
prisoners were about to leave the coy
"bull pen" when the deputy sheriff APP
peared on the scene and cIapped the.

An Old Bismarck Boy Dies in Tonopah
Nevada, Of Black Pneumonia.
An Everett, (Wash.,) dispatch of
April 18th, says: Hank Whitney for
q long time manager Of the Bay View
Hotel of this city died yesterday in
Tonopah presumably of black pneu-
monia. Whitney was As years old and
had lived in Everett fifteen years.
He leaves widow and a step son.
J. H. ("Hank") Whitney, we'll
known to all old Bismarckers, died
in Tonopah, Nevada, on the 10th, pre-
sumably of the so called plague now
so prevalent in the new gold fields.
Up to a year ago he was manager of
the Bay View Hotel in Everett, Wash,
where he had lived nearly fifteen
years and where his mother, widow,
married sister and step son sur
vive him. Henry was 45 years of age !;
his father, Sam Whitney, who died in
| Maine some eight years ago, was a
famous frontier character in the early
days of Bismarck. Every old timer
will remember Sam Whitneys opera
house back in the early days-a
famous place of amusement-that
stood where Gussner's store is now
located. Hank was Sam Whitney's
Oldest boy and well known to all
habitues of that frontier place of

vile" as the management called it.

ENGINEER STORRS
TALKS IRRIGATION

Forum: Encouraged over the en-
thusiasm Of farmers in the western
part Of the state over the government
irrigation project, H. "A. Storrs, cleo.
trical; and mechanical expert, who has
general supervision of the work of
the reclamation service, is in the city
today after an extended trip through
the district in the northern part of
the state where the great work is con-
templated
1t was at Buford that Mr.. Storrs was
particularly impressed with the way
the farmers have taken up the matter
Of irrigation. A monster meeting was
held at that place last week and tenn
porary organization of a water-users'
association effected. Another meeting
will be held next week when officers
will be elected and instructed to incor-
porate the association, thus effecting
permanent organization and paying
the way for the expenditure of $780,
900 of government funds in what is
known as the .Buford-Trenton irriga-
ton project.
Because of the conditions under
which the funds were appropriated for
irrigation purposes, the organization
of water-users' associations is essen
tial. Before the actual construction
work is commenced it is necessary
that every land owner in the district
to be benefited by the heme shall
agree to the conditions imposed BIZ
the government. To facilitate mat
tiers, the government deals with the
water-users' association and the land
owners with the associations.
On account of the activity of the
farmers in the vicinity of Buford, it Is
predicted that the Buford-Trenton pro-
ject will be completed during the sum-
mer of 1907. Such activity on the
part of the farmers has encouraged
the government officials and greatly
expedited the work.
Already a monster petition signed
by all of the leading citizens in the
Williston district has been prepared,
asking the secretary of the interior to
continue in the irrigation work in that
district. Tt is hoped that project of
about 10000 acres can be developed.
A meeting of land owners was held
at Nesson Tuesday, but on account of
the short time before which the notice
of the meeting was announced a COM
plete representation was not in attend
ance. However, arrangements were
made for the holding of another meet
ing when the action of the Buford peo-
pie will undoubtedly be followed. The
Nesson project includes about $4,000
acres.
At the present time survey work is
being carried on between Buford and
Nesson. P. M. Churchill is in charge
of the work in that part and las
force of thirty-five men under him,
who are investigating every feasible
project found along the Mis-
souri, river. ..

broadcast method is that larger num-
Der of seedlings can be raised by it on
O given area than by any other method.
Broadcasting in strips is compromise
between the drill and broadcasting
methods, combining the merits of both.
The seed sowed broadcast were press
ed into the soil to the depth Of their
own thickness, while the drills were
made one-eighth to one-fourth OF an
inch deep and in the case of the larger
seed somewhat deeper. A space six
inches wide is left between the broad
cast strips for cultivation.
All the beds were mulched with sand
to depth of one-eighth to one-fourth
OF On inch The beds, which extend in
q north and south direction, are -four
feet wide and are divided into lengths
usually of six feet. All drills and strips
sOwed broadcast extend lengthwlse OF
the bed. The width of four feet was
chosen not only because II is conven-
lent width for wedding, but also be-
cause laths, which form the covering
of most Of the screens, are OF this
length.
Most of the screens rest on uprigbts
foot above the ground and consist OF
a frame OF by ] inch rough lumber
covered with laths or cheeseclOth.
In some cases the cheesecioth is

The spacing Of the laths varies from
the twothirds shade. in which the
laths arc 6ye-eiehths inch apart. to
the one. third shade, in which they are
three inches apart. Between these ex-
tremes is the onehalf shade, which Is
made by covering the frame with the
laths. mailing only the alternate laths.
and then shaking out the loose laths.
Besides these is q screen covered with
laths nailed on edge. with a spacing
corresponding to one-fourth shade.
Since the width of the laths stands

slant of the suns rays One advantage
OF this screen is that the tender seed.

Besides the screens above described
there are n number of screens attach

The rapidity of growth Of the bam-
