Inn SANDY 1ARM.

A friend writes US that last winter
he was persuaded to buy small farm,
when the ground was covered With
snow, on the representation Of the
owner that it was good piece Of land.
When the snow went off he made the
discovery that instead Of being good
soil it was sandy and almost worthless
for cultivation. The funny thing was
that he was inclined to take the sellers
word as. to the quality Of the soil he
cause the man, his wife and twelve
children had made living on the fam
for three years previously. Our friend
wants to know what to do with this
poor soil. We have before said that q
sandy farm was by all odds the hardes1
sort Of farm proposition to handle
The wet farm can be drained, tho STUMP
and stony farm can be cleared, tho
stir clay farm can be rendered pro
ductive by clover, manure and pasture
In Wisconsin the owners Of sandy
farms are meeting with some success by
growing clover, rye and potatoes. BY
clover rotation every fifth year sulli
cient humus and fertility are worked
into the sand so that it will grow e
good crop Of potatoes once in five years
We know of nothing better than clover.
or possibly alfalfa, to use to get sucI
soils into productive shape.

Large Crowd Meet Sunday After
noon and Enjoy Splendid Pro-
gram--=Norwegian Flag Floats
by Side the Stars and Stripes.

The first 18th day of May
demonstration ever held in the
immediate vicinity of Minot, was
the entertainment given in
Watne's woods, a half mile west
of this city Sunday afternoon.
All plans had been made for a
big celebration Thursday after
noon, but on account of the heavy
rain on that day, the celebration
was changed to an entertainment
and postponed until Sunday. A
crowd Of between three and four
hundred Norweigians gathered at
the beautiful spot on the banks
of the Mouse river to again con-
slider the manner in which Nor
way secured her freedom from
Denmark on May II, 1914, and
rejoice over the fact that today
Norwegians Of all classes in Nor
way have a voice in the govern
ment.
The flag Of Norway foated
from a high pole erected over the
speaker stand, and Immediately
over it the stars and stripes told
the simple story that while the
sturdy Sons Of Norway still loved
their native land, yet they were
most loyal to the country to which

NORWEGIAN GATHERING

they swore allegiance and il
necessary they were willing tc
die for it.
Chairman Paul Baukol called
the meeting to order at 3 O'Clock
and all joined in the singing OF
that famous Norwegian song,
''Forsamlingen." This selection
was sung in a very beautiful
manner. The Norwegians are
essentially a music loving nation
and as singers they cannot be
surpassed. The Minot singers
are no exception to the rule.
Mr.. Baukol made a very happy
address Of welcome, making each
one feel like it was good to be
present. He said that the Nor
wegians had gathered to have a
pleasant social time by them
selves. It is the Constitutional
right of every American to peac-
ably assemble to discuss any top
&c, as long as there is no con-
spiracy to overthrow the laws Of
the land. While the Sons Of
Norway have the greatest love
for their native land, yet as
adopted American citizens, there
are none more ready to defend
the rights of the United States.
The Owl quartet composed of
Messrs. Axel Roise, M. Doe, Cas-
per AIKEN and Chas. Fritz sang
''Skjonne May" in a splendid
manner and were compelled to
respond to an encore.
Rev. O. K. Anderson gave a
most appropriate address, his

WILLOWS AND swAMrs.

We came across lately what we knew
thirty years ago as muskeg swamp
Of four acres, an undrainable and ut.
terly worthless and unproductive plot
Of land upon an otherwise good farm
The owner, finding he could not drain
the swamp for lack of outlet, did q
novel thing. He waded in and stuck
cuttings Of the common white willow
I'll over it-this probably about twenty
years ago. Al we saw the old swamp
the other day the water stood three
feet deep all among as fine a grove OF
thrifty willows as we ever saw, trees
forty feet high and almost foot
through. Tho old bog, so worthless,
had been converted into very valua-
Bile timber tract which would furnish
Ut least sixty cords Of wood to the
acre and when cut of would ''~.~-

A friend Of ours raised a most ex.
tFaordinary crop of potatoes last year
by laying the seed potatoes on the top
Of the ground and covering them with
straw to depth Of foot or mere,
When ripe the ground was almost GOV.
cred with large and clean potatoes 100
per cent better than were raised by
any Of his neighbors. Then there was
no bother cultivating the crop. just
plant and the job is done. This is an
old Irish method and is worth trying

year.

subject being ''The II de May"
He was frequently encored by
his interested audience. Mr..
| Anderson is a forcible speaker
and does not lack for words to
express his thoughts.
Perhaps the most interesting
number on the program was the
Norwegian National hymn, which
was sung by the entire audience.
This beautiful song was rendered
with a vim that did ones soul
good.
A Norwegian entertainment in
Minot would be like a wheel with
one spoke missing if S. J. Rog-
nile, the popular musician did
not take a part. He executed a
violin solo Sunday afternoon in
SO able a manner that he was
given no peace until he responded
to an encore. Prof. Rognlie is a
musician of note over the entire
Northwest and Minot can be con-
graduated upon having so talent
ed a young man within her con-
fines.
Rev. N. Nelson, pastor of the
Norwegian Lutheran church, de-
livered a most pleasing address
on "Frihsdens Ansvar. Mr..
Nelson kept the crowd in a state
of good humor from the moment
he started to talk and his hearers
were just a little bit disappointed
because he finished as soon as he
did. Mr.. Nelson has been con-
nected with the church in Minot
for nearly six years and is most
popular with his congregation.
He is very able assisted in his
work by his wife who during her
residence in this city has won the
esteem of all with whom she has
come in contact.
After Mr.. Nelson had finished,
the Owl quartet again rendered
a selection, this time in English,
Pale in the Amber West" A.
ter another musical number, a
cornet duet, the entire audience
Joined jt! / in IN, singing my Country,
After the exercises very fine
lunch was served to all present.
The repast consisted Of sand
wiches and coffee, cake and ice
cream. The coffee was made
right on the grounds and other
refreshments were enjoyed. The
Norwegians are noted for their
liberality and never stop for ex-
penses.
We understand that next year
a genuine celebration will be held,
and no doubt it will be attended
by several thousand. No special
effort was made at this time to
secure a large attendance. The
committee which was responsible
for this good time acquitted itself
in a very able manner. The COM
mittee consisted Of John Strom-
men, foreman: Einar Mus, Secy.
