Two years ago John S. Rose of
Hesper, Iowa, came to North Dakota
and bought chunk of the earth near
Driscoll on the N. p. He found some
rocks on his land but this did not dis
courage him. He dug a lot of them
out and built substantial outbuildings
with them. This winter he is reap
ing the benefits of industry and good
husbandry. He just finished hauling
700 bushels of fax which he sold to
the Driscoll Land Co., at $1.10 per
bushel. The fax went 81 bushels and
Is pounds to the acre. Is not this
encouraging? At the present price Of
land how long will it take a man to
pay for 100 acres?s When t@yon have
figured this out, stop paying rent, buy
a piece of land for yourself and be en-
rolled among the Independent farm
ers.

evolved from the brain Of a modern
playwright. 1t marks new depart
ure in the so-called detective plays,
and while it is melodranatic in con-
struction, it is sane and rational and
has nothing to do with trash or i'm
possible effects. 1t depicts lite on a
high plain and; its characters are the
sNe: pius Ultra of fashion and: all
|rnove in the highest circles Of social
life. This affords excellent oppor-
tunity for the display of modern
wardrobe, which is one of the tea
lures of the production and the Ia
dies and gentlemen who appear in
the gaming parlors of Mr.. Raff1es'
mansion are veritable fashion pates
1905. The tension OF this play is
not relaxed from the rise to the fall
of the curtain, and the story Of love
and sacrifice which permeates the
entire plot is one of the strongest
appeals ever made to the human G.
motions.
Aside from this great play the
vaudeville features between acts
are worth more than the price Of
admission.

called to order, Mr.. Lyon made the
following statement: 1--WE find af-
ter looking into the matter that it
will not salt our convenience this
afternoon OF possibly at this meet
ing, to examine the state board OF
directors. I would make this mo
tion, unless they. wish TO make vot-
luntary Statements in their own be-
half this afsrnoon that they be ex-
cused from attendance on this ses-
sion"
! In response to the inquiries from
Messrs. Welch, Schumpert and Bel
linger as to what was meant by
| this session." Mr.. Lyon and SEN
ator Hay explained that the men,
bers of the board would be given
ample opportunity to be heard:
Mr.. Welch inquired: "Now, as
I understand the board Of directors
will be called?"
Mr.. Hay: "They will be called
| and they are at liberty now to make
any statement, if they desire to do
so, but the committee do not re-
quire anything from them at the
E.present session.
/ Mr.. Blease: II think these, gen
tlemen ought to be heard now. The
legislature will convene next Tues
day. We were to sit in the interim
and the gentlemen composing the
board of directors may wish to
make statements to 60 to the pub
Ilic in answer to some of the testl-
mony which has been brought De-
fore our committee. / think it
nothing but right that day should
| be set this week so that the state
|board can be present and be given
hearing either through their own
mouths or through the mouths OF
their counsel"
| Mr.. Hay: "They can make any
voluntary statements now If they
wish to do so and I suggest that
they appear here on Friday morn
ing and present through themselves
or counsel, such statements as they
wish to give to the general assem-
bly, in the report of this. commit
tee.'

ready now you will not get ready
before the time for your report. |
am ready to dance to any music
you all can play"
; Mr.. Hay: Il think the committee
! understands it's business, and Will
TRY to conduct it properly. The
door of this cotntnitte is open to
any member of the board Of direc~
tors to make any statement he may
desire to make, and it will be taken
down by the committee stenograph-
ically and reported along with the
other evidence. We do not pro-
pose to shut the door upon these
gentlemen. and it has never been
our purpose to do so.
"As to the reference made about
this committees work having last
ed for a wear, I will say the COM
mittee feels amply able to conduct
the business properly and will con-
tinue to conduct it in such way as
seems proper to the committee.

As the impression prevails in some quarters that Secretary of Agricul- sture Wilson and the officials of his department favor a continuance of the congressional free distribution of common garden seeds, an inquiry was addressed to Dr B. T. Galloway, chief of the bureau of plant indus try, to which Dr Galloway replied: The views of this department, with reference to the distribution of mis cellaneous vegetable and flower seeds, have been quite clearly set forth from time to time in our various re- ports. The attitude of the depart ment was very clearly stated by the secretary in his report for 1903 in the following extract: With regard to the securing and distributing of miscellaneous garden and flower seeds, the fact remains that this work does not accomplish the ends for which the law was originally framed. There are collected, put up and distributed now, on congression- al orders, nearly forty million pack cts of miscellaneous vegetable and flower seeds each year. These seeds are the best that can be obtained in the market, but from the fact that large numbers of packets are want ed, the seed obtained can be of standard sorts only, such as are to be found everywhere for sale in the open market. As there is no prac- tical object to be gained in distrib- uting this kind of seed, it seems very desirable that some change be made. To this end, it would seem wise to limit our work entirely to the secur- ing and distributing of seeds, plants, etc, of new and rare sorts. This is line of work that would result in very much more value to individual districts throughout the country than the distribution of a large quan- tity of common varieties of garden seed which have no particular mer- its so far as newness or promise are concerned
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-04-16

The experiments which Luther Burbank has under way are the most extensive ever carried out, but from their very nature valuable results, either practical or scientific, cannot be obtained at once. The pursuit of long periods of intensely careful and most accurate observations on a broad and comprehensive scale is the only course whereby results which
 will stand the test of time may be ob- tained. The laboratory and small field experiments of the past have never included enough species under study at the same time, and it has been impossible to draw general con- clusions safely. as the different tribes and species of plants have each a slightly different story to relate.
 Very strong points are brought out by studying the results of these vast experiments. and much baluable ma terial for thought will undoubtedly be found in the scientific account of the experiments. Some of the ex- periments which have been carried on for the last fifteen to thirty-eight years are just coming to fruition. A partial list of the plants upon which work is now progressing includes 30O.OO0 new hybrid plums, the work
 of the last twenty-five years in cross ing about every known species, and about 10000 seedlings of this years growth C1s05D; 10000 new apples:

First Stereotyper.

The first man to stereotype news paper was Charles Craske, formerly of St. Marks avenue who died the other day in Woodbridge, N. J., at the age of s3. He did this great thing in 1852, at the suggestion of Horace Greeley, and the result, of course, was a great though gradual change in newspaper printing, for it was years before 1t was the general practice. MT. Craske had carried on the craft of stereotyping and electrotyping in New York for more than 50 years, his company be- ing in Pearl street.

Arithmetic Races.

In the recent great athletic meeting at Canton arithmetic races were fea- ture. Pupils from the schools carried slate and pencil, and in the course of the race they encountered a black board containing a sum to be solved. The boys were lined up as they reached the goal, and those whose calculations were wrong were then eliminated. The first three left in the line were counted winners.
