The North Dakota Agricultural

The North Dakota Agricultural
college opened for the fall term on Mon
day Of this week Sept. 18th. The indi-
cations are that the institution will have
the largest attendance in it's history.
Each year has shown an increase, and
the number of students would have
been larger for the past three or four
years With more adequate accom-
modations. The construction of ad-
ditional buildings during the past two
or three years has relieved conditions to
some extent though further facilities are
greatly needed. President Worst and
the other members of the faculty want
as many long term students as possible,
students who will be in a position to
take the full nine months course.
Every effort has been made, however, to
establish courses of study for those
short term students who cannot be
spared from the farms till later in the
fall and must return early in the spring.
President Worst has returned from his
European trip with a lot of new ideas
which he hopes to work out to the ad-
vantage of the people of North Dakota.

What is the matter with the corporation

UNDER the new law, providing for
citizenship in the United States appli-
cants must have resided in the country
flu. five years before the final certificate
a be issued. Persons who have been
living in the country a number of years,
more or less, and have neglected
citizenship may make their declaration
of intention and have it properly filed in
court, but two years must elapse before
the final certificate can be issued-they
cannot vote on first papers. No natural
%ization papers can be issued thirty days
prior to a general election. 1t is also
understood that persons to whom final
papers have been issued cannot exercise
the right of franchise until the expira-
ton of one year so that parties taking
out final papers at this time will not be
entitled to cast their votes at the
primaries next year as they are held
June "a, but they will be able to vote at
the general election in November.

The American Society of Equity de-
partment of grain growers, whose
national headquarters are at Indian
apolis, has made arrangements to store
several million bushels of grain at Kan
sas City and st. Louis, at reasonable
rates for storage and insurance and on
such conditions that the grain so stored
may be sold by the party storing it or
his appointed agent, wherever and
whenever desired. Arrangements have
also been made to advance within 2 cent
per bushel of wheat, II cents per bushel
on corn, etc, of current market prices.
This is one of the biggest moves ever
made by the farmers organization known
as the American Society of Equity to
induce farmers to hold their grain off
the market until their prices will be
paid.

LEGAL OPINION ON SUNDAY THRESHING.

That a farmer has a right to operate
a threshing machine on Sunday, and
that such operation is not and cannot be
considered a dissertation of the Sabbath
was the decision made by States At
torney Serumgard of Ramsey county the
other day when called upon by a party
who asked for the arrest of a neighbor
on that day. The states attorney re-
fused to prosecute for Sunday thresh-
ing claiming that it is necessary to save
the crop. In speaking of the matter
States Attorney Serumgard said that he
would not prosecute for harvesting on
Sunday. He said that he holds that
this work is necessary in order to save
the crop. He refused to bring the prose-
cutions, and in speaking of the incident.
said that he believed it was merely spite
work. One nelghbor gets sore at an
other and then he wants to have IN
arrest made in order to get even. While
it Is not legal to work on Sunday, 1t is
allowable in cases where it is absolutely
necessary. 1t is necessary to cut grain
and to thresh from the time the work is
started until it is completed, regardless
of holidays and Sundays, as a day lost
may mean that thousands of bushels of
grain will 60 to waste. There are more
than $50 threshing machines in that
county which will be operated on Sun
day. Each machine threshes on an
average of at least 1900 bushels of grain
per day and if all these machines were
stopped on Sunday it would mean that
10000 bushels of grain would not be
threshed on that day. 1t would not be
so bad if good weather was assured here
for two months, but the fall is some
times short and it is necessary to push
the work as fast as possible. In the
fall of 1891 the state had one of the big
gest crops ever known, almost. Soon
after the cutting had been completed
bad weather set in and continued until
the snow came, There were thousands
of bushels of grain that was left in the
shock all winter. 1t was rotted in the
spring and of no value whatever.
Should there be another fall like that of
1891 the necessity of threshing on Sun
day when the weather is good would be
readily seen. Taking everything into
consideration it appears that Sunday
work is necessary on the farms for a
month or more at this time and it is
evident that no steps will be taken to
prevent the threshing even though there
are some who object to the work being
done on the Lords day.

The papers of the large cities are all
right if you want them, but it is your
own home paper that advertises your
churches, your numerous societies,
sympathizes with you in your Affections
? and r%ejoices with you in your prosperity.
In short it is the local paper that men
lions the thousand and one items in
which you are interested during the
year and do not find in the papers of
large cities. Do you not think it wise
to give your home paper your support?
The aim and purpose of this paper will
be as it has always been to hold up the
fair name of Langdon and with the com
munity of interest that can be engen
dered between publisher and subscriber
we can do much better. Let our interest
be identical-boom Langdon.

The Spanish have a word, "manana,'
which means tomorrow" Secretary
Taft may yet become famous as "the
manana statesman" He seems to favor
putting everything off until tomorrow.
He is in favor of an income tax-but not
just now: he believes in an inheritance
taX-but not for the present: he thinks
the Filipinos will be ready for self
government after a while; and he feels
that tariff reform might be a good thing
after the next election, or some other
time in the future. How would it do
for reformers to adopt his own language
and say "Secretary Taft might make a
good president-some day, but not yet,
a%fterawhlle, say about 1912 or 1916"
Present abuses need immediate treat
ment and "manana" is not likely to be-
come a popular campaign slogan.

BARLEY is the most profitable crop
the farmers of North Dakota have raised
this year. In other years the price has
been from 30 to 40 cents per bushel, and
even with the big yields per acre the
crop paid no better than wheat. This
Year the demand for barley is so great
that the price is double that of ordinary
years. The cause for this is the general
shortage of feed stuffs. which makes
barley, oats and corn all higher than
usual. Barley will be a good price for
the next few years-unless it is overdono
The crop is a good one for the farmers
to raise as it ONE off early, and gives
the owners a chance to clean up the
land by blowing so early that it almost
amounts to a summer fallow.

The farm price was II cents in Mime
sofa. g. cents in South Dakota and 60
cents in North Dakota. Last year it was
Go cents in Minnesota, 81 in South Da-
kota and So in North Dakota. The farm
price of the present crop is undeter-
mined as yet, but it will be 10 to 10 cents
a bushel higher than a year ago. On
that basis the money value of the crop
now being threshed will be considerably
greater than that of last year.
