Extensive Grading Operations.

Few persons realize the extent Of
grading operations that have been
done on the N. P. track between
Buffalo and Wheatland this summer
and which are still going on. A stiff
grade over the "Bu6alo hill" has
always existed and this the company
Is reducing at heavy expense. The
revised grade extends from mile
east Of Wheat tland 10 the west end of
the yard at Buffalo, a distance Of
about II miles. The old grade was
10 some places as high as one per
cent or a rise Of one foot iD every 100
eet. The revised grade will be- four
tenths per cent. Of this new grade
about four and one-half lies consists
of excavation work, the balance OF
the distance fill wort. This year the
steam shovel has worked through two
miles of the cut once, and when the
cut is finished the shovel will run
through 1t a second time. In some
places the cut Is 20 feet deep. The
new double track will cx'end on all
of the work being done. The filling on
the grade begins a mile west Of Mag
nolia and runs to a point about a
mile eastof Wheatland Or distance OF
about six aud a half miles. The grade
has been raised In some places 10 feet.
During the rrogress of the work
temporary double track has been laid
about 100 feet sourh Of the old track.
Three miles Of the track will be CON-
pleted before freezing up this fall.
Part of the dirt taken from the ex-
cavation has been used on the double
track work between Haggart and
Casselton and east Of Moorhead. At
Buffalo the depression Of the new
grade is only about three or four
feet, but will be greater at the west
end of the yard where the grade ris-
es. 1t may be necessary to move the
depot building at Buffalo. The COM
pany has planted rows of willows
along both sides Of the cut to protect
it against drifts Of snow and portable
snow fences will be used this winter
for that purpose. The cost Of this
big piece of grading will be over
half million dollars In labor and ma
terial.s . .s .-...

Profit In Flax.


The idea that fax Is harder on the
soil than wheat or oats has been dis
proved, yet the fact remains that the
farmers Of the United States are rails
Ing less fax now than they were sew
eral years ago, even though 1t always
brings high price. In 1905 the total
production Of the fax In the United
States was 2s,477, 753 bushels, for
which an average price Of 84.4 cents
per bushel was received. This shows
that it is a profitable crop to raise.
Flax can be successfully grown in any
climate that Is favorable for wheat.
1t does best wherever rains are fire.
Quent. While 1t is a common prac-
tice to & ow fax on new land, it can
be raised on any soil that is adapted
to other cereal crops. A sandy loan
is preferable to clay. Flax probably
gets its reputation for inJurlng the
soil from a disease known as fax will,
which will injure succeed ing crops II
it gets into the soil. Scientific exper-
iments have pr0ven, however, that
fax does not draw any more plant
food from soil than crop Of wheat
does. Flax seed should be planted
much as wheat is, but as the seeds are
much finer they must not be covered
too deeply on a rough seed bed. Two
or three pecks per acre should be
sown II the crop is desired for see d
purposes. A larger quantity per acre
should be sown If fibre is desired.
The seeds should be covered one to
three inches deep and sown later in
the spring than other crops. Flax
wilt is a disease CAUSED by wilt seeds
or spores, land no remedy has yet been
discovered for it. The only way to
get rid of it is to stop growing fax
on that piece of land for several
years. In selecting fax seed. care
should be taken to prevent weed seeds
from being included. The flax seed
of commerce contains false fax, mus
tard seed and other weeds. Before
seeding, fax seed should he treated
the same az seed wheat IL for smLt,
by applying solution of fomalie-
hyde. The solution should be applied
slowly and evenly, and the seed shov-
eled constantly to prevent mating.
A small force pump, with the nozzle
set to throw a" misty spray, Is best
for the work. A half..gallon Of the
solution should be used for every
bushel of seed. BY practicing rotation
and not sowing on old ground, little
trouble will be ocoasioned BY flax
wilt. While fax seed is sometimes
used as food for stock. its gr"atest
value is in the production OF linseed
oil. After the oil Is extracted, the
residue, which is known as "0i
NEAL" can still be used for feed.
The market for fax is constantly in
creasing, land 1t will paw every farmer
to raise some.

judicial Elections In Recent Years.

Regarding some past history of
the state and county judicial cam
paigns the following is applicable to
the present time:
Lets see, didn't the Valley City
Times-R Record and the Grand Forks
Herald each have a flt when Judge
Burke was nominated for the bench
in the Jamestown district, and " "ere- >
MT a large number Of attorneys and
other good citizens very much ex-
-ercised at that time about the mat
ter-"trailing the judicial ermine In
the dust - "degrading the bench,'"
'spolitical intrigue" ''tool Of the
bosses," "morally unfit" "notor-
iously incon npetent," and all that
sort of thing? These same people
or some Of them are now exercised
about the nomination OF Judge
Kuauf. Judge Burke has made good;
everybody in the fifth district now
admits that he is making splendid
record. Every enemy he had is now
his friend. That McHenry county ed
itor who so merci]essly slandered
him believing himself justified at
the time-now says he would 60 500
miles to vote for him and that he Is
making an excellent and impartial
judge. Give Judge Knauf chance.
He has no bad habits. He IS an &C
tive young man. Was the enthusiastic
leader of the Young Mems Repnbli.
can League, and a partsian,it is tr1e,
but he'll make an impartial judge.
He was regularly and fairly nominat->
ed in a republican convention by Sc
cret ballot. He is close student. He
is a good citizen. Remember what
was said about changing the draft of
the state constitution reducing the
age limit as his critics said to let In
a "young strippling nonresident"
and remember what was said when
JudRe Bartholomew was chosen ian
obscure lawyer from LaMoure; and
when Judge Young was nominated q
"justice court lawyer" was charged
with having been discovered by the
bosses and when Judge Cochrane was
nominSted i'the; Corpora tion ATTORNEY"
and even when judge Engerud was
chosen there were those who claimed
that "there vas something behind
it' for "it was impossible tor the
bosses to have honest motives in pol
itics'' and the bosses were running
things. Every judge selected has not
heen free from criticism, yet the
MOI tn Dakota bench has always stood
high-each "made good" The bosses
|-sswise bosses''-and the corpora
tions never have and never will en-
deavor to control the courts. Such
course would be- the height Of folly.
1t would recoil upon them. We may
differ In politics and the state may,
f,om time to time, be the scene OF
great political strife. but through 1t
all there is an overwhelming desire
for the integrity Of the bench. .-~
| 1t is neither fair nor decent to be
too hasty In cr,tic1sing candidate
for public office It ts especially un-
wise, undi1ni6ed, reprehenslble and
cruel to inpeach mans integrity
without good cause. Judge Knauf de-
serves fair treatment. Give him a
chance, like the others, to "make
good. "-Bismaick Tribune.

LARGE INCREASE.
In the Assessed Valuation of Stnta.
man County Over That
Of 1905.

The information given in the re.
turns Of the county assessor for 1908,
shows the rapid increase in taxable
property of the county. Some OF the
figures compared with the returns OF
1905 are specially instructive.
The total valuation of county pro-
perty in 1905 was s6, $50, ,942.
The total for 1906 is 81, 754, ,270 or an
increase in one year of 81, l,2l4,328.
From present indications the as
sessed valuation of Stutsman county
in 1907 will pass the million mark,
truly a remarkable increase.
Some of the school districts of the
county have large valuations, the
Eldridge district having 1858, 1858 as
sessed valuation, it being the largest
outside Of Jamesto~n. Beaver district
has valuation of 1856, 1886.
In school levies, the SpIritwood
district is the lowest, having levy
of but 2 and7-1O mills. Lowry and
Gerber districts have levy OF 30 mills
each.
The jamestown school levy has
been reduced from 20 mills last year
to 16 mills this year.
The city of Jamestown levy has
been raised from 1913 last year to %
mills this year, which increase is
partly due to the Pyke Judgement
and attendant expenses
The levy for state purposes which
includes the state general, wolf boun-
ty, bond interest and educational
funds, is 5.3 mills, the same as last
year.
The county general levy, which in
cludes the sinking and emergency
funds was 8:8 last year and is 7.8 this
year. The general school tax for this
year is the same as last. viz: 2 mills.
For county roads and bridges the
levy Is ga mills for 1876. Last year it
was 81. The increase is required by
the new settlers in the western part
of the county needing additional
roads and bridges.
The levy for the gopher bounty
fund, applicable to rea! property OIL
ly, is .04 Of mill this year and was.
.O5 last year.
The items comprised in the total
of the assessed valuation are as fol-
lows:
Lands 94,580, ,O24
Lots 789. IA
Personal 1,249, ,402.
Railroads l,092,719'
Express Companies 1882;
Telegraph 1920
Telephone 1890
The city tax is 54.5 mills, which In
cludes city, county, state and school
taxes. 1t was 65.4 last year. This is,
of course, outside of the special as
sessments against city proper y for
sewer water and side walk taxes.
Taxation on city property is q bur-
den. Many tax payers believe is un-
necessarily so, and there appears 70
prospect of its becoming much lesson
certain property with the expendi-
lures Of the Immediate future in
view. At least this conclusion is to
be reached judginK from the record Of
che city expenses incurred In the last
four or five years. Notwithstanding
the increased property to be taxed.
But with the county the increase
will not be noticeable and there is q
certain prospect Of future reductions
of considerable extent in various
items OF expense

CHAINED TO A CORPSE
poIefui Punishment of the Ancients
 Duplicated in Our Modern Life.

The Romans used to punish d mur- derer by chaining 10 his body the corpse of his victim. Wherever he went he dragged behind him the de- bris of his crime, the sleazy ecadaver, revolting thing that was once a man.
 Every day you see people dragging around with them the corpse of their sins. They can't get away from them. And many of them have become so intimate with these corpses that they have become corpses themselves. The misery of these poor unfortunates has become constitutional with them. It fits them like an old shoe. They have become accustomed to it.
 And there are thousands of humans who are walking the earth today with corpses attached to them--dyspeptic stomachs they can't get rid f They have to get along the best they can with the stomachs they have. And the owners of said dyspeptic stomachs are to be found in every walk of life,
