Sound Sense for Cities.-There is
something that people of cities should
ponder in Impressions Quarterly for
September. It is paper on cart and

glue generators, tanneries and iron or
acid works. Just little thought and
deliberate, right action would find better
places for such necessities. If forests
were valued as they should be by the
great mass Of the people, no man would
dare desecrate them as they have been
desecrated. The same is true of river

tion, and such subsequent proceedings

sued an order to the commissioners
of Stark county to show cause on
May 16 why the law should not be set
aside. There is a number of points
lin the case, principal among them
being whether territory can be an
nexed to a county by a majority of all
the votes cast at an election by the
people of the entire area affected, OF
whether it requires u majority Of all
the voters in each of the separate
areas. In the case in question, a ma,
jority of all the votes was cast for the
proposition, but, as we understand
not majority of all the votes in each
subdivision. If the court holds the
law illegal, it will restore the territory
in the southwestern part of the state
to it's present condition, and some
further legislation will be necessary

Captain |. p. Baker of this City Tells
Things to Globe Reporter.


st. Paul Globe: "The season open
ed unusually early in North Dakota,
and seeding will not be completed in
our state for some weeks to come
The mild winter was followed by an
early spring. Farmers were blowing
considerably more than a month ago.
Steam plows are being used to advant-
age in breaking new land. one man
that 1 know of having already con-
tracted to turn over 800 acres of virgin
prairie with his steam pillow. 1 ven
ture to say that more steam plows
have been sold in the state this year
than in all previous history of North
Dakota. One advantage of the steam
pillow, is that it may be set to plow
the ground at any depth, and deeper
the better, especially in a dry season.
1--WE are bound to have plenty of
rain and the delay in its coming has
given the farmers an opportunity to
do much more spring blowing than
usual. There is no trouble about
wheat being brought to maturity in
our state. The grave danger is that
the growing grain is sometimes sub
ject to long seasons of hot dry winds.
IF the rains hold off for two weeks,
longer, it is safe to say that there
will be the largest acreage ever sown
to wheat in our state, and the expert
ence of our farmers is that a dry
spring means good wheat crop"
