Agricultural College

The Northwestern Live Stock associa-
ton will hold its annual meeting in st.
Paul this year. Prof. Shepperd is to be
superintendent of the live stock Judging
contest. His work was received with
much satisfaction at the Chicago stock
show last year.
Experiments are being made under
the direction of Prof. Churchill regard
ing the amount of wheat and other
grains to be sowed to the acre. This
question is becoming common one
among the farmers of the state and the
results OF these experiments, when
worked out, will materially aid them.
In connection with the roller mill
experiments Prof. Beckwith of the
biological department is carrying on
microscopic experiments as to the
macaroni and other varieties OF wheat
-four in order to provide against the
sale of macaroni as other flour.
o. w. Dynes, graduate of the insti
tuition, who has charge of the poultry
department Of the station, has just
completed bulletin on poultry which
will soon be published. This contains
the results of many experiments com
pleted on the poultry stock OF th'
college.
Prof. Richards, in recent address be
fore the students, said that the use o
milking machines would doubtless sool
become general as they are now meet

Are Your Trees Ready foI
Winter7

A plant winter kills because when its
roots are frost bound the warm days of
late winter and early spring draw the
sap from the stem, leaving it dry and
dead. The horticultural department of
the North Dakota Agricultural college
suggests that this loss may largely be
prevented by mulching the ground be-
fore the frost has struck deeply into the
soil. Where the ground is left bare it
often cracks open and the cold air pene-
trates down to the fine roots of the plant
and by so doing hastens the dry out
action of the sun upon the sap of the
stem. A mulch Of barn-yard litter, or
half-rotted straw or chaff, scattered about
and between the trees to depth of three
or four inches, holds the frost out to a
large extent, and the roots of the small
trees 20 down to unfrozen and moist
earth. Then when the sun begins to
warm the sap during February and
March, any loss the tree sustains by
evaporation is made good to it from the
water in the soil.
Sun scald, which is due to the unequal
action of heat and cold upon the growing
portion of the stem, may be guarded
against at this season of the year either
BY whitewashing the trunk of the tree or
by surrounding it with cornstalks, much
as one would arrange the slaves Of a
barrel, tying them in place with light
wires.
Rabbits and mice often destroy fine
young trees in their desire for the starch
they find in the buds and young stems
1t may be of interest to know that tar is
disliked by them and that ordinary tai
paper wrapped about the stem OF a
young tree will prevent its destruction
by these pests.

COAL AND CLAY

The plating of Scranton, the new
mining town between Hettinger and
Bowman on the Pacific Coast extension
of the Milwaukee, is significant. Col.
A. p. Peake OF Valley City, this state,
and Representative ]. F. Brodie OF this
city, we're at Scranton the past week
where they met E. D. Sewall, president.
and II. B. Earling general superintend-
ent of the Milwaukee railroad and ar
ranged for placing lots of the new town
on the market. Messrs. Peake and
Brodie. owners of the Consolidated Coal
Co. mines at Dickinson and New Salem:
have opened 10 feet vein of coal
on the Milwaukee at Scranton which is
said to be the finest coal mining propo'
sition in the state. They have BOO acres
of this coal bearing land. Over the
nineteen feet of solid coal is deeF
layer of clay which tests have demon
strated to be equal to any in the state
and with the advantage of having deer
vein OF good coal underneath. Messrs

will be the only plant on the line of thu

The Production Of Com :
mon Brick

Of the long list of mineral products of
the United States, concerning which sta
tistics are collected by the National Geo.
logical Survey, only three-pig iron, cop
per and bituminous coal-exceeded in
value in 1906 the products of the clays;
and of the clays themselves the product
ranking highest in value was, as hereto
fore, the common brick, of which more
than ten billion-to be exact, 1oyo27 o3o.-
ooo-were marketed during the last year:
The value of this great product amounted
to S6l,3oo 500, an Increase Of So3,687 over
the value for Ioo5, and constituted 47.3o
per cent of the value of all the brick and
tile products and 38.o7 per cent of the
value of the entire product of the clay
industries.
The largest production of common
brick in 1906 by any one state was re-
ported by New York, whose output
amounted to 1,535.57o 600 brick. valued
at $o,2o5 ,o81, or about s. per thousand.
This quantity represents 1891 per cent
Of the entire output of the country, and
the value is 1902 per cent of the total.
The greater part of New York's COM
mon brick comes from the Hudson river
region, which is one of the most interest
ing centers of the clay-working industries
in the United States and has for many
years been the almost exclusive source
of supply for the common building brick
used in New York city.
Next to New York, the largest pro-
ducer of common brick in 1906 was ILL
nois, which reported an output of 1896
2Io,ooo brick, valued at $5,71ooo6, OF
$4.7o per thousand. The great common.
brick producing region of Illinois is Cook
county and it was the decline in price Up
this district that brought the average
price per thousand for the state to 4.7o
the lowest for several years.
The only other state reporting more
than billion common brick was Penn
sylvania, whose marketed outPu,
amounted to 1,o27,54l,ooo brick, valuee
at $6.586,374, or $6.4I per thousand
| While third in quantity, the product O
this state was second in value, and thu
average value per thousand was CREATE

Fence Law In Billings
County Not Good

Sentinel Butte Republican: John
Johnston, who lives on farm south Of
here, near Rocky Butte, was awarded
Judgment for damages in Justice Card
ners court on Monday for $500 from
Thos. Rush of Wibaux, and Mr.. Rush
must also pay the costs of the case.
It seems that this fall twelve head of
Rush's horses got into Johnston's oat
field and damaged about 100 shocks of
grain and that Mr.. Johnston took up the
horses and kept them about eight days
before Rush came after them.
Mr.. Rush based his defense on the
well-known fence law of Billings county,
but this law the attorneys proved to the
satisfaction of the court to be no good
because of certain irregularities, and as
this fact would place. Billings county
under the same herd law that is effective
in other parts of the state, and as Mr..
Rush's horses were running at large
when they should not have been, the
justice ordered that Mr.. Rush pay MIR.
Johnston 5000 as damages and $500
for keeping the horses; also the costs OF
the case.
An interesting and somewhat laugh
able feature Of the case was brought out
when it was shown that Rush, when he
went after the horses, made the bluff to
Johnston that he had a letter from Attor.
ney L. A. Simpson stating that damages
could not be collected in Billings county
When cross questioned, under oath, Rush
didn't want to say much about this letter
and when the attorney asked him, did
lyou speak the truth about that letter OF
did you lie7" he kept strangely silen!
and the attorney for the defense objected
vigorously, whereupon Justice Gardner
directed that the question be amended
aud Mr.. Rush then admitted that he had
told an "untruth" he had;had no lettel
from Mr.. Simpson.

MAY COMPROMISE SUIT
Eddy Action Not Likely to Go in
Court.

Special Dispatch to The Star
CONCORD, N. H., March 25.-Interest In
the suit brought in the name of Mrs. Mary
Baker G. Eddy by her son, Geo. w. Glover,
and other relatives, against certain of her
confidants and officers of the Christian
Science Church demanding an accounting of
her property, is now centered on the docu-
ment which was filed in the superior court
April by Gen. Frank S. Streeter, Mrs,
Eddys personal counsel. Gen. Streeter
himself says this document will be highly
entertaining. 1t will probably take the form
OF an application for the dismissal of the
suit in equity on three grounds:
F1rst-That there is no law in the state of
New Hampshire under which, in the circum-
stances. such an action can be maintained.
Second-That the suit was not brought in
good faith, and that consequently the petit
TONERS have no honest standing In court
Third-That an Interior motive prompted
the next friends Of Mrs. Eddy to under
take the action, and that it was inspired
from a source hostile to her and to the cult
of which she is the head and for an object
which was made plain by the counsel for
the defense.
1t is said with positiveness by some of
Mrs. Eddys friends that she has no SYM
pathy with the litigation started by her
next friends" but is most unwilling
plaintiff.
In the document to be filed by Streeter It
is understood certain events which led UP
to the suit will be dealt with In such q
frank fashion as to cause a sensation.
before it gets into open court is heard here
daily. The belief seems to be growing
among those who are following the case
closely that compromise will be effected.
