vetches or the peas Or species of al
falfa which live and thrive in those
high attitudes, and which have the
power to return the heterogeneous ele-
ments taken by the wheat. We have
other men In Russia and in northern
China, in the great Yang Use Kiang
Valley country, and in the Kuen Lun
Mountains. -
These explorers will bring back their
forage and leguminous crops and we
shall send them into the wheat fields
of, the great Northwest. Then the
farmer will have to learn to keep
more domestic animals. He will learn
to diversity and rotate his crops, feed
ing the forage and legumes to stock,
thus returning the plant food to the
soil. When alternated with these for
age and rejuvenating crops these same
fields will grow many times the num-
Der bushels they now yield, and
plenty for our country,
The Mississippi Valley farmers will
come back again into the wheat rails
ing business. It is only question of
the price. Iowa, alone. which now
raises hardly any wheat, once raised
5O'0oO,000 bushels. They find it now
pays better to raise corn and oats and
other crops. But they will soon find
that they can, with profit, put in a.
crop of wheat once in a while. Even
now a crop once in every four or five
years would give them a yield and
price which might surprise them.
Another thing which will do a lot
to solve this problem of raising our
own wheat for bread is the opening
up of the great tract Of country west
OF meridian SO, where there is an an.
nual rainfall of ten inches or less-the
semi-arfd country which has been used
only to raise cactus and jack rabbits.
In our Russian explorations we
found the so-called macaroni or durum
wheat and, by experiment, discovered
that it would grow in the American
semi-arid country. Already 100000
bushels of this wheat has been raised.
1t Is the equal of the best wheat for
bread and we are eating it here in our
national capital every day, and our
chemists say it is more nourishing
than the wheat which was regarded as
native to our country. q
The $4,000, 900 bushels will 20 large
ly for seed, and we will have a much
larger crop of this sort of wheat.
Whether the American farmers sui.
fer from competition with the Cana
dian wheat fields. which are being
opened I'D inst across the American
border is a new question that has
arisen.
There are no doubt very rich fields
up therea but there are new problems
to be faced. Frosted wheat is a thing
that is heard of in some parts of Can.
ada. There are places where It freezes
every month in the year. And the
Canadian farmer cannot go on con.
tinually robbing the soil with impuni.
ty. u f.. ~. H..
It is the old story. Pioneers raise
wheat. Pioneers rob the soil. But
sooner or later they must find the for.
age crop and the animal which will
graze ''non Il, and come tn farm on
honest principles.
Canada must come to this.

DICKINSON EXPERIMENT STATION
Work Has Begun on the Experiment

Planting Will Begin soon-Prof.
L. r. WaIdron Possible Resident
Superintendent.
One of the important epochs in the
history Of western North Dakota was
the locating this week of the Dckin-
son Experiment Station, by Prof. C.
B. Waldron and H L. Bolley of the
North Dakota agricultural college, J..
F. Brodie local director, Senator L. A.
Simpson and prominent business men
of this city. G. E. Nugent, secretary
Of the agricultural college, and Addi-
son Leach, director, were also with
the party.
The history of the law giving $1,000
and permanently locating this station
at Dickinson is known to all Press
readers. 1t was Senator Simpsons
bill, and in it's passage he was ably
assisted by Representatives Phelan,
Mcclure and Martin. Gov Sarles ap-
pointed ]. F. Brodie local director,
who is to act with the agricultural
college faculty in the management of
the station.
The faculty of the college wanted to
get an average piece of land and they
found this in the southeast quarter of
section q, the quarter owned by w. L,
Richards and A. N. Jefferies just west
of the city. Under the provisions of
the bill 100 acres had to be donated
for this purpose, and in view of the
great value to the country at large,
the owners put the land in at $40 per
acre. In reality it is worth twice that
amount The land is fenced and a
portion of it is broken, and in every
way the selection seems a good one.
Prof. L. r. Waldron, graduate of
the college at Fargo and also of Ann
Arbor, is talked of for the position of
resident superintendent. Mr.. Waldron
is man thoroughly acquainted with
the needs Of this country, having made
many trips over the prairies of west
ern North Dakota in connection with
his college work, and should the board
secure his services, it will be extreme.
ly fortunate for this part of the state.
One Of the principal objects of the
Dickinson station will be to get forage
plants adapted to this locality, mean
ing the entire country west of the
Missouri river, and Prof. Waldron
says that he will guarantee that with
in very few years the station will
produce variety of alfalfa that will
be hardy here and that will yield
two crops per season on any average
land. Experiments will not be con-
fined to grasses and grain crops alone.
but will be extended to tree culture,
and finally to the feeding of stock.
This year it is proposed to erect
buildings costing about $500. Five
thousand trees will be set including
apple trees of different varieties, plum
and cherry trees. Current, raspberry
and other small fruit will be set this
season, also rhubarb and asparagus
beds. -. ~. So ~

MORE light ON The
WHEAT DRAWBACK
AN INTERVIEW WITH SECRETARY
WILSON DRAWS OUT POSITIVE
STATEMENTS.
UNDER PRESENT RULING DUTY
ON WHEAT DOES NOT PRO-
TEcT FARMERS.

Fargo Forum: In a copyrighted in
terview with Secretary of Agriculture
Wilson, the Newspaper Enterprise
Association sends out the following
under Washington date:
! Does the 25-cent duty on wheat pro-
tect the American farmer?" was a
question asked Secretary James Will
son.
"Not since the treasury department
made it's ruling permitting drawbacks
on Canadian and other foreign wheats
coming in to be ground by American
mills for export" replied the secre-
tary.
"Would you recommend an act of
congress to repeal that ruling?"
sThat is politics. l leave all that
to congress" <r .
& "Is the United States soon to be
forced to buy bread abroad?"
" This question has been asked me-
Unless the soil robbers stop their
robberies, yes.
The American wheat grower must
learn to farm more nationally As
things are going, the supply may soon
fall below the consumption in this
country. Wheat growing methods
must be radically reformed.
The estimated yield of the wheat
fields in the United States is 340,-
100000 bushels. The per capita con-
sumption of wheat by the people
who, by the way, are the greatest
wheat eaters in the worlds about
81 bushels. So the consumption of
wheat in this country is 536, 900,
which is very close to the average
crop. But the annual yield in the
United States is growing less, while
the population is growing larger. In
addition to this, many thousands of
bushels of wheat are ground into
-four by American mills and sent
abroad. Part Of this wheat is home
grown, and part comes from Canada.
The problem of reforming the wheat
growing industry in the United States
is one of the most important which
is now engaging the attention of the
government. ...
There is no question of the ability
Of the United States to grow all the
wheat 1t can ever eat. We could grow
four times what we are now grow
ing. But methods of farming will
have to be changed and the present
extravagant and wasteful practices
stopped.
In the Dakotas and westerly to the

tice for some years to grow wheat

USE GOLD FISH FOR BAIT.

in Place of MinnoWs.
A pair of Philadelphians who went
down to Gibbsboro on a fishing expedi-
ton recently, says the Philadelphia
Record. discovered when they arrived
In the Jersey town that they were shy
on bait. AS the fishermen were out
for bass and pike, live bait was neces-
sary; so a small boy was hired to
catch minnows. He scooped in thirty
five, and charged l cent apiece for
the fish. The anglers paid the price,
and then found the minnows too small
to swim about after they had been
hooked, a circumstance which seemed
to knock the bottom out of the fish
ing trip, as, unless the bait is lively,
the bass and pike do not bite.
The pair had about decided to so
home when one spied an aquarium
filled with goldfish in a store window.
He suggested the goldfish as bait, n
both men secured a dozen for a com
partively small sum. The experiment
was a success. The anglers caught a
fair mess and found the goldfish to be
very hardy. A pair which had been
used as bait, and had escaped the hun
gry pike and bass seemed none the
worse for having been hooked and

aquarium as if nothing had disturbed

origin Of the word "hamfatter'-a
term Of derision applied to actors:
"Years ago, before cold cream became

Down at Hot Springs, Ark, the Wis
itors have all sorts of complaints, but
it is a subject of remark that the great
majority of them have some trouble
with stomach AID bowels. This may
be partly attributed to the heavy medi-
cines.
Naturally, under the conditions, the
question of food is very prominent.
A young man states that he had suf-
fered for nine years from stomach and
bowel trouble, had two operations
which did not cure, and was at last
threatened with appendicitis.
He went to Hot Springs for rheuma-
tism and his stomach trouble got
worse. One day at breakfast the wait
er, knowing his condition, suggested
he try Grape-Nuta ard cream, which
he did. and found the food agreed with
him perfectly.
After the second day he began to
sleep peacefully at night, different than
he had for years. The perfect diges-
ton OF the food quieted his nervous
system and made sleep possible.
He says: THE next morning / was
