Edward Altman of Belfeld wants
cattle to summer. He has good range

John Marucheck recently bought the
Newt Gates horse ranch on Knife river
above Fayette. The purchase includes
good bunch of native horses.
Messrs Evenmo and Erickson, for
merly of Minnesota, were in the city this

VIM. N. Christ reports that cattle in
the locality of Mary, west of Kildeer
mountains, never wintered better than
the past season. Mr.. Crist turned back
five carloads of beef cattle last fall, and
he Is glad now that he did. The pros.
poets are good for fair beef prices this
year.
Manager J. M. Watson announces that
there will be no horse sale during the
month of May but grand sale will be
held early in June at date that will not
conflict with the large sales in the eastern
markets and thus give the eastern buy
ers an opportunity to get some good
North Dakota range horses.
The North Dakota Durum Wheat
Growers Association was recently Or
ganized at Grand Forks for the purpose
of bringing pressure to bear on the Line
Elevator and Milling interests in Mime
sofa to decrease the difference in price
between hard wheat and durum and to
encourage the raising Of durum wheat in
that part of the state best adapted to its
growth, that is, west of the Red River
Valley. ]. L. Cashel OF Grafton was
elected president and T. R. Atkinson of
Bismarck, secretary. Durum wheat sells
on the Duluth and Minneapolis markets
at from 20 to u cents lower than No. I
Northern, ana Prof. Ladd, the pure food
commissioner, states that the amount of
flour produced from durum is one and
one-half per cent greater than from fife
or blue stem, although the amount of pa
tent flour it. little less from durum.
There was milled in the United States
last year twenty million bushels of dur
um wheat and as there is no durum flour
advertised we draw the conclusion that
this wheat is blended with other wheats
in order to cheaper the cost of produc-
ton and make larger margin of profit
to the miller. A meeting of the Associa:
ton will be held at Devils Lake, April
21st, when steps will be taken to com.

TREE PLANTING.
Successful Setting Of Evergreens In
Dry, Wind Swept REGIONS.

Dry, Wind Swept Regions.
Fully 700 OF the progressive farm
ers OF Minnesota and the two Dakotas
were in attendance at the Tristate
Grain and Stock Growers association
at Fargo. n. d.. In what they regard
rs the most successful convention In
the associations history. One day of
the convention was given over to hor-
ticulture and its various branches The
subject of forestry was discussed by
G.. III. Whiting. pioneer nurseryman;
Professor f. G.. Cheyney OF Mlnneso-
Ia, Professor G. Il. Waldron OF the
North Dakota Agricultural college and
@. A. Kupfer of the United States for
est service. One of the speakers at
the convention made brief synopsis
OF the points emphasized in the dis
cussion on tree planting as follows:
"There is no question regarding the
need for tree planting on the nor hen
prairies. Every attempt should be
made TO protect the farm buildings.
animals and orchards from the severe
winds which are so hot and dry during
the summer and so terribly cold and
dry during the winter months. Com

this
TOO many OF the poorer, quick
growing. short lived trees have hereto
fore been used In the establishment OF
windbreaks and wood lots. Many OF
these are now declining This is no
sign that they should be- abandoned OF
entirely cut away. With proper man
agement many of the groves can be
made to reproduce themselves. Where
this Is not advisable the dead and dy.
ing trees should be removed. The re-
naming trees will afford the shelter
/ required for establishing the new
groves, and before the last OF the old
trees are gone young ones will be
ready to take their places. This pro
lection is especially valuable In case
evergreens are used for the purpose
OF rejuvenation. The evergreens form
the best windbreaks, and their exten.
sive use cannot be too strongly urged.
'There is no wonderful secret In sue
cessful evergreen planting. Care should
be taken 10 get hardy stock before
growth begins in the spring Under
no circumstances should the roots be
permitted to dry out. Before planting
cultivate the ground carefully. Do not
set trees loosely in the ground, as this
permits them TO be blown about by
the wind and gives the soil the besi
conditions for drying. Firm the sol
about the trees with the heel and ther
sprinkle a little loose dirt over the
firmed surface. A mulch OF old straw
or hay spread over the ground between
the trees in the spring is very helpful
In exposed places hedge of willow
or Russian olive planted around thu
conifers is almost essential.
