patented, copyrighted and otherwise
bottled up by that old time and ever
young wolf catcher and lupine expert,
Benjamin Corbin, Esq, Of Glencoe, in.
the neighboring county of Emmons,
but it appears that the United States

into the wolf catching business and
we have a copy, or rather advance
sheets, of the governments directions
for the catching of wolves, which con-
tains much valuable information re-
garding the habits of the wolf and
directions for catching him. There
are instructions with regard to the
trapping of wolves, the locating of
dens, and the preparation Of bats that
will prove attractive. OF especial
interest are the following directions
for preparing wolf bait:
Place half a pound of raw beef or
yenison in wide-mouthed bottle
and let it stand in warm place
(but not in the sun) for two to six
weeks, or until it is thoroughly
@decayed and the door has become
as offensive as possible When
decompo sition has reached the
proper stage add a quart Of sperm

is better. Then add 1 ounce of

procured, use in its place ounce

1t is impossible to enlist President
Roosevelt in the war of demagogues
upon the railroads, says the Pioneer
Press. He is for neither government
ownership, nor confscatory tariffs,
nor a denial of reward to railway
enterprise. His aim is a square deal
for all; and this he believes can be
best secured by federal supervision
and regulation, uniform in its char
acter and giving an assurance both of
protection to investors and of justice
to shippers and travellers. The ex-
tremists who talk of the people
taking things in their own hands,
and Wreking summary vengeance on
all railway corporations, for alleged
misdeeds in the past, are Of the.
Hearst and Bryan school-not follow
ers of Theodore Roosevelt. The rail-
road men who are in the business to-
build and operate railroads, and to
make money legitimately out Of such
operations, could wish for no better
fate. than that the policy laid down by
the apostle of the square dear should
be consistently pursued. It is only
those who make railroading a mere
basis for stock jobbing operations who
would have anything to fear if the
states confined themselves to the
spirit of the presidents declarations.

THE LESSON Or A LIFE.

There was held recently at Crooks
ton meeting of old friends to pay
tribute to the memory of w. G.
Andrew, the travelling man for Wright,
Barrett & Stilwell of st. Paul, who.
was killed on his last trip in.''
Andrew was known to nearly all of
the old time publishers of the state
possibly better to them than to the
new. Deacon Wardwell of the.
Pembina Pioneer Express in a recent
issue of his paper, devotes part of a
column to his old friend and the lesson
of his life as illustrated lin the meet
ing held in commemoration of 1t,
and says.
He was not rich, he was not
talented, he was not ambitious, but
was simple, unassuming, industrious
and faithful
He was neither statesman, poet or
millionaire. To success as usually
measured, he had little claim.
- * Z. ~
And yet to him came such honor
as few men receive after death. The
lesson to us is worth moments
thought. Particularly to the young
man just entering life and who is
looking forward to high ideals of
future success.
Z Z
The life of w. G. Andrew and the
respect paid to his memory proves
that success in life is not necessary
to climb to high places.
w. G. Andrew in his simple. unas-
Stunning manner just did his duty as
he went along through the world. AS
he travelled from one place to announcer
he left bright pathway of sunshine
behind him. He left with all he met,
the feeling that they had been in
pleasant communication with an up
right, earnest, straightforward, Christ
! ian gentleman.
He filled his position in life with the
best he had and none can do greater
than this. That is all that is possible
! to the human.
Boys, you can't all be presidents or
senators or millionaries.
Nature may not have given you the
genius for poet or musician. You
may not be able to write books, you
may only have the cone talent" but
every boy has the same capital on
which w. c. Andrew started and with
which he worked His life proves
that every boy can round his own life
into the perfect circle OF true success
be that circle large or small.
Life after all is mostly made up Of
little things. These seem unimportant
but the enconium of the Judge was
not of great things, but, "Inasmuch as
We have done it unto the least Of these,
We have done it unto me- s&
The lesson Of the simple life Of this
really great man, is for each to help
make the world more cheerful, and
by example make the world better,
and. when death comes the highest
eulogy shall be "a good man has
gone" and no man can have greater.

Potatoes OF the Plains.

Where potatoes have been grown
In this state they have proven
one of the most valuable of
the farm crops. However. little
investigation has so far been made of
the methods of culture that are best
adapted to the conditions under which
potatoes must be grown on the unirri-
gated lands of eastern Colorado.
Some very good crops of potatoes have
been grown in this section in the past
year or two. and 1t is thought possible
that considerable acreages may be
planted this year
The methods OF growing employed
and the best varieties to plant are nee
essarily different from those used in
the irrigated districts. so word OF
advice to the newcomers may be
timely.
Varieties and Seed - One OF the
first requisites for success in grow
ing potatoes on the plains is to
get seed that is adapted to the
conditions. Probably the best Is
that which has been grown under
similar conditions for several gener-
atoms. II that is not to be had, seed
from the Arkansas divide tElizabeth)
country. or even from Dakota. Mime
sofa or Wisconsin will do. Seed from
the irrigated lands should not be used.
Usually the early part of the season
suffers less from drought than the lat
ter; therefore, the early maturing va
rieties are generally better for this
purpose than the larger late potatoes.
Early Ohio and Rose Seeding have
been grown in this state with con-
siderable success in the past, and are
probably safer to use than some or the
common eastern varieties.
Soils.-Potatoes are grown on nearly
all kinds of soils, but the lighter soils
that will hold moisture are generally
to be preferred.
Preparation of the Land.-Plow the
land to good depth when IN good con
dition to work as early tn spring as
possible. Harrow the land as fast as
plowed 10 form a soil mulch and pre-
vent loss of moisture by evaporation.
From the time blowing is done till
planting time, the land should be fire.
quently narrowed. If rains come. the
land should be narrowed as soon after
the rain as the land can be worked
without pudding the soil.
Plantiug-In most cases, the earlier
the planting can be done without dan
ger of early frosts hurting the vines,
the better. When 1t is possible to do
so, use a machine for planting. for by
so doing the seed is put down into
moist soil. while hand work is apt to
leave seed covered with loose, dry
soil. in which case the seed will be de
layed in coming up, and a poor stand
result.
Cultivation-After the potatoes are
planted, the success or failure of the
crop will, to large extent, depend
upon the cultivation given.
The first cultivation should be given
soon after potatoes are planted, be-
fore the plants are out of the ground.
