Wild Mustard to Be Exterminated.
Fargo-Rapidly drawing their weed
killing campaign to a close. Professor,
Bolley and Pritchard, Of the agricul-
tural college, have just completed a
series of experiments conducted on
farms in the vicinity of st. Thomas
and Bathgate. At st. Thomas the ex-
perimenters were assisted by the
3O'Connor Bros, but the work was done
on the Buchanan farm.
AS a result of the experiments he
professors have found a cure for the
mustard and king head evil, and Pro-
fessor Bolley states that with the CO.
operation of the farmers of the state
these pestiferous. weeds can be easily
and surely exterminated. Experiments
with the root stalk weeds, such as
Canada and SOW thistles have not
brought such certain results, but the
investigators assert that they can
blight blossoms and buds Of these
plants so hat they will not produce
seed until after the grain crop is har-
vested. Then it only remains for the
farmers to pull up the roots in order
to destroy the plants.

n mile east of Johnson City last

Flour TESTING Mill COMPLETED.

Fargo-The experimental -four test
ing mill at the agricultural college is
now nearly completed and the work
of installing the machinery has been
commenced. When completed the mill
will be used in accordance with the
act of the legislature. which provided
for its establishment, in testing various
samples of grain and determining their
quality INK grade.
Farmers having wheat whose grade
they wish determined can send SAM
Piles to the mill. Where it will be care
fully tested and officially graded Rav-
ing obtained this official grading, they
will be able to tell whether or not
they receive the right grading at the
elevators where they dispose of their
grain, n the ultimate result will
probably be the establishment of a
uniform grading system for grains
throughout the state.

Two Women Reported Killed Near
Mount Vernon-Houses and Barns
Wrecked-Much Damage Done to
Growing Crops.

Mitchell, s.. D., July 15.-There
was but II fatality in the tornado
which visited this section Saturday
evening. All telephone wires were
down and no outside information
could be secured until this morning.
John M. Pease, living three miles
north of Mount Vernon, was killed.
A part of his family had gone to the
cellar when the storm approached
and others went across the road and
took refuge in a grove. MI. Pease
a few moments afterward started
across the road to see if the children
We're safe, and when a hundred feet
from the house the wind picked him
up and carried him fifty feet in the
air, and in dropping him to the
ground he was crushed. He lived
but a few minutes after the children
reached his side. The funeral was
held this afternoon.
A few years ago Mr.. Pease was a
prominent politician in the Populist
party of the state and was one of the
leaders in the reform party.
Farms Hit.
Two women were reported killed
near Mount Vernon, but this has not
been verified.
Additional details were received as
to the extent of the damage done by
storm east of Mount Vernon. The
house of Mr.. Riley was carried thirty
rods and set down, and but little dam
age was done to it other than racking
it. Much of the furniture was
wrecked.

barn we're wrecked and scattered for
some distance. An immense barn
was partially destroyed on the Con
ner farm and Mr.. and Mrs. Conner
barely escaped with their lives. The

Well Invested Pennies.

Grand Forks-Wiil Phillips, a farm
er near Glendale, tells q story about
raising hogs which seems almost in
credible, but which he vouches for
the accuracy of. His siX-year-old son
had saved five hundred pennies and
gave them to his father to deposit in
the bank. On his way to town Mr..
Phillips had a chance to purchase a
SOW and pig II the thought occurred
to him that the SOW would pay a big
ger dividend than the interest at the
bank would amount to, so he pur-
chased the SOW, which in the course
of two weeks gave birth to seven
pigs. The purchase was made May 8,
1905. Since that time the boy has sold
s504.60 worth Of pork and has on hand
at this writing Sc pigs which will be
fit for market this fall.

Nav Be Gold Mine,

McLeod-Some excitement has been
occasioned here by the discovery Of
what is thought to be collaborating
sands in the Owego country, Ran
som county.
While making an excavation for a
cellar, Edward Thompson, who lives
in hat vicinity, discovered veins Of
sand four feet below the surface which
were rich in particles of what is be-
lieved to be gold. Thompson brought
a bottle full Of the supposed gold dust
here and will send it to an assayer to
ascertain it's value. K%londikers who
have seen the sample say that it re-
sembles the gold taken from the Klon-
dixie regions. If it proves to be gold,
it is said to be in sufficient quantities
to pay for working mines.

Grows Fine Berries,

Fargo-The Red River Valley is be-
coming famed for the luscious straw
berries which are being raised, in far
greater quantities than most people
have any idea of. The raising of that
fruit is safely beyond the experimental
stage n every year the number Of
growers is increasing steadily.
Two years ago c. H. Thompson, two
miles and a half east Of Mapleton,
bought a box Of Hood river berries,
planted the seed and raised the plants
last year as a demonstration. He is
now gathering a fine crop Of perfect
berries. large and luscious and meas
uring three and a quarter inches in
circumference. During the winter the
plants were not given extraordinary
care and none of them died.

Turner Immediately appealed the case to
the supreme court and that tribunal dis
covered that several ballots which should
