This issue marks the last one in
January and farmers will soon be
making preparation for the seed
time. The first thing necessary is
to look after the seed. This can
be done while during the months
of winter. The LEADER has, dur
ing the past few months, published
several articles relating to the pure
seed question. In farming, as in
every other profession, "the best is
none too good, and in order to get
the best results the best must be
planted. Farming has become a
science. The question Of seed
is a great study itself and the far
can do no better than to devote
time to the study Of this one sub
ject. One Of the greatest troubles
with the early history Of the state
was the seed question. Farmers
should have their seed ell cleaned
of foreign material, such as foul
seed, dirt, etc.

One of the notwithstanding talks
before the irrigation congress, says
the Tribune, was that of j. S. Green
Of Mandan, who simply narrated
what he was doing with a 10 horse
power gasoline engine and a link
belt water box elevator-one of the
oldest known methods of lifting
water, except as to the power used.
At a'cost of only 50 per day of "a
hours for gasoline, he raises to a
height of II feet, water from the
Heart River at a rate of 3,6O0,OOO
gallons every "a hours. It doesn't
take much figuring to indicate the
possibilities for private enterprise
along the small streams of the state
when it is possible at such an in
significant sum to pump water.

House Bill No. 20, by Mr.. Stevens
Of Burleigb, for an act preventing
the adulteration, nisbranding and
imitation Of foods, beverages, "a
dies, drugs and condiments in the
state Of North Dakota, providing
penalties for violation thereof, ap-
pointing a pure food commission
for the enforcement of the provi-
sions thereof and providing an ap-
preparation for the carrying out
the provisions of the act. The bill
is a very strong one and if passed
would put a stop to the purchase
and selling of impure food within
the confines of this state.

We publish this week, for the

We publish this week, for the
be-. eft Of our readers, the new
revision Of the game laws which
will be introduced at this session
of the legislature lIThe law is rec
commended by the Sportsmen As
ISOLATION and.iame Warden Hale.
There a number of changes made,
and those in.charge of the revision
seen to it that there was M reduct-
ion in fees the game warden was en-
titled thereto, but took away that
per cent Of the fees that rightfully
belonged to the county, and gave
it to the deputies, There are
some parts of the new law, that
are more binding, but we do notfor
one minute believe that the game
will receive any better protection
under the proposed new laws than
under the old. 1t takes something
more than laws-it takes a man
who is in authority, with backbone
and one who is willing to act in the
discharge of his duties. One Of the
provisions of the new law should
be, that those who have taken out
a hunting permit in Cass county,
should the party desire to hunt in
Mclean or any other county in the
state the ownerof the permit should
by law go before the auditor of the
county IN which the hunting is to
be done, give his name, residence
and the county auditor place the
seal of his office thereon. Under
this method the warden or his dep
utles would thus know just who
were hunting in the county. In a
few more years under the present
condition, it matters very little
whether there be a game law on
the statute book or not.

Representative Streeter has a bill
in the Legislature to increase the
pay Of witnesses from one dollar to
two dollars per day. The compen-
sation of one dollar a day for wit
nesses is purely pominal, not being
sufficient even to pay the ordinary
expenses of a witness while attend
ing court. Two years ago, the Leg
~islature passed a law increasing the
pay of jurors from two dollars to
three dollars per day. Probably
no one will attempt to explain why
a juror is worth three dollars per
day and a witness only one. dollar.
OF course, the work of the witness
is not continuous, but in many cases
with a badgering attorney, is more
arduous end possibly less pleasant
It would seem a sensible provision
that witnesses receive either NO
compensation at all, except travel
ling expenses, doing their duty out
Of a sense of obligation to the cause
of Justice, or else receive enough
compensation to pay their .egiti.
mate expenses for subsistencewhile
engaged at court.-Tribune.

Transplanting Trees.
rom the Garden Magazine

From the Garden Magazine.
February is an excellent month for trans
planting Towering trees and shrubs from
the woods into the home grounds, especial
ly II the January thaw has barred the
ground and the air thrills with the promise
of spring. The trees are dormant, their
roots packed tight in frozen earth. 1t is
harder digging, but you get a better ball of
roots. Certain Towering trees among our
native species are as beautiful as any
exotics obtainable from a nurseryman. In
fact. all the best ones are sold by nursery
men. Every garden needs Towering wog-
wood, with its snow of white blossoms in
spring. 1t should be planted in the border
of an open lawn, but overtopped behind
by large trees, because it has no foliage of
its own at Towering time to make back
ground for the blossoms. The price of such
beautiful trees is careful transplanting
and patience with its slow growth.

The japanese Baby.
From st. Nicholas.


How do you suppose the babies take an
airing? In baby carriages, you say? OF
course not; the Japanese never do anything
the way we do 1t. When the baby's about
three days old, it goes out for it's first
glimpse of the world strapped on some
body's back, and that's the way it goes
every day till it can go on it's own feet.
Sometimes its mother or it's nurse takes it,
but very often it rides on the back of a
brother or sister, who is perhaps not more
than four or five years old. These little
nurses don't seem to be troubled at all
by their charges as you would suppose:
they play ball and tag, and run races and
fly kites. In spite of the heavy loads on
their backs. What is more remarkable
the babies are perfectly happy, and hardly
ever cry, though when their young nurses
run with them the poor babies faces bang
back and forth against their earetakers'
shoulders TIL an American baby would howl
with pain and rage.
