PLEA FOB KuRN -HATTIN
$4,000 OF the Necessary $4,000 for
New Home Already Subscribed.


Plans are now completed for a sys-
tematc canvas OF the state TO raise
funds for a new home to take the
place Of the large building at West.
Minister, VT, destroyed by fire Febru-
airy 2S.
TO meet this emergency and rebuild
with proper equipment. the trustees,
of whom Hon. w. j Wan Patten is
president, voted to raise the sum of
$4,000
A friend of the home who has al
ready given largely toward the new
school building which has just been
finished on the Westminster property,
at once pledged $4,000 toward this new
fund. This has been increased by
smaller subscriptions so that already
there is a nucleus of $4,000.
Circular letters have been sent out
to very church, Sunday school and
Young Peoples society asking for def
mite pledges.
Pulpit and press are uniting in urg'
ing this great and immediate need up
on the citizens of our state.
This Is Vermont's great opportu-
nifty Stop for moment and consider
what this work means to Vermont
Look about over the hills and valleys
at the neglected and abandoned farms.
Where are the boys who should be
cultvating this land and increasing
the value of our property? Too often
drifting about the streets OF town or
city. Why. Because Vermont is not
awake to her privilege. She is allow
ing her boys to become attracted by
the false glamour of the city and los
ing them. instead Of providing home
and education.
This is what Kurn Hattin aims to
do. To provide clearly, wholesome
surroundings for unfortunate boys; to
give them education along practical
lines and hold them until habits of in
dustry and rugality are formed. More
than all, to teach them to love the soil,
and to realize its possibilities in health
and wealth so that they will become
independent. self-supporting citizens.
This can only be done by joining
hands as one people in this hour OF
great need and providing funds to re-
build the old site which is all that can
be desired for location.
We feel that it will only be neces-
sary TO impress the people with the
real need and its immediateness to
Vermonters always give TO call true,
Vermonters always Civ to all true,
genuine appeals.
Remember It takes time TO build
Our New England summer is short.
The boys must have a home before
cold weather comes again. The trus-
| tees wish to avoid all Indebtedness IN
the future. They believe in the good
old maxim, owe no man anything.
Help them 70 carry out this policy and
begin the new Kun Hattin' without
hindrance financially by sending a
check or pledge soon to the treasurer
Mr.. f.. l.. Walker, Bellows Falls, Vt
Any other information can be furnish
| ed from that office.
Watch this paper for further reports
of this work and the growth of the
fund. Help TO make the report a good
one.

Y. G. Normal Notes.

A basket ball game was played be-
tween the boys team of the Normal
and the Enderlin High School in the
Normal gymnasium, last Saturday
night. 1t resulted in a victory for the
Normal, the score being IS to II.
Schedules are being arranged for
many basket ball games this season.
The only definite arranged games SO
far are with the Agricultural College.
On Feb. l the boys and girls teams
will play at Fargo, and a return game
is planned to be played here on Mar.
I. Under the efficient coaching of Mr.
Meyers, a graduate of Purdue Univer-
sity: the practice is progressing nicely.
Many OF the practice games are play
ed with the local high school.
The number of students is continual
y increasing, the senior class now
numbers lis, and the first year 1855.
Many of the students are from other
states, which proves the progress and
development of the school.
President Mcfarland was away q
few days last week, on a business trip
to Fargo. The delay in the compile
ton of the new auditorium, is the
cause of considerable extra work, es-
pecially to President Mcfarland.

SEED CORN POINTERS,

1 recently received a letter dated at
Hope, N. D. asking about certain va
rietes of seed corn, and where they
might be obtained. The letter was
lost, together with the name of the
writer, and this public way Of answer
ing Is taken in the hope that he may
see this article, and that it may pos
sibly prove of value to others interest
ed in corn GROWING.
We have been growing cornin North
Dakota for a number of years. Among
the best early dent varieties is North
western Dent, which is ripe early in
Sept. and stands we'll up in yield.
Will & Co., of Bismarck supplied the
Station, and can probably get you the
seed. N. D. 100, a yellow dent, ripe
early in Sept, carries its ears we'll up
from the ground, and is a good yield
or. We can also recommend the Min
nesota King as being early and a good
Equality corn There r. other good
varieties, but with one of these three
one ought to get good results. Among
dealers to whom we can refer as reli-
able r Will & Co., Bismarck, E. s..
Delaney, of Valley City, N%orthrup-
King & Co., Minneapolis.
The Agricultural College does not
sell seed.
We would advise you to buy your
corn on the ear. If my correspon-
dent, or others, will write ssme, 1 will
send you sample ears of corn, showing
the type you should expect to get. 1t
is poor, business to breed corn from a
scrub ear, and shelled corn may be all
right, but the chances are "agin it.''
Southern corn is to dear at any price,
s%upposing, of course, that you are
looking for a corn that will mature in
this latitude. Find out where your
corn was raised, buy it on the ear, and
test it's growing power. Don't fail to
do the latter, because a great deal of
our last years. orn crop was frost
nipped, and much of the seed has low
vitality. Test every ear, using 3 or 4
kernels. If the kernels do not germi-
nate, or if the sprouts are weak, throw
out that ear. Gull out everything not
first class, and start the crop with a
full stand.
Now a word of caution,-corn grow
ing is a new BUSINESS to many in this
state. Don't fail to put your land in
%graden-like filth before planting,
J which should be done about the third
week in May. And don't fail to keep
it in first class cultivation afterwards.
The Agricultural Station Bulletins,
which are regularly mailed to any
farmer upon his request, contain our
Station experience with corn Ask to
be placed on the mailing list, mention
ing especially our corn bulletins, and
you will get much valuable material
on general crop growing. Our pres
ent advice to all is:
Buy ear seed corr
Buy only northern varieties.
Do it soon.
Test out the weak and dead ears.
Plow; harrow! harrow! harrow!
Check row: cultivate all you can.
And even if an unfavorable season
should deny you a crop of matured
ears, you will raise an abundance OF
fodder, and the working over of the
soil will put in readiness for use a
large amount of plant food for the sue
ceeding crop. Grow corn!

War on witt Flax.

Fargo-The Department of Botany
and the Experiment Station sacked up
the different samples of flax seed
which are thought to be resistant to
wilt and other troubles. About $50
sample bags of these will be distrib-
uted among the farmers of the state
for experimental trials this year. The
seed will be sent out in sufficient
quantities to SOW one-eighth acre, one
fourth acre and one-half acre plots.
It is known at the station that this
seed is sufficiently resistant to allow
It to produce practically a full crop
of flax on thoroughly diseased ground
here. It is not known what the effect
will be on this resistant seed when
1t is sown upon the ground Of a differ
emit character and under different eli
matte conditions than those under
which it has been bred or selected.
If the seed proves to be resistant in it's
new localities each farmer will have
enough to raise several bushels.
The only request that is made of
the farmers who receive these sam
pies Of seed at this time is that they
should grow the seed furnished them
upon ground that is known to be
thoroughly flax sick, to save the re-
sulting crop pure and free from other
flax seed to be used in the future and
that they make a report to the station
regarding the amount of seed obtained.
It is expected that the crop the Sec
ond year will prove to be very much
more productive than that obtained
the first year after the change.

A Dead Indian,

Devils Lake-About 9 o'clock in the
morning an old Indian, Napiasu, 'ap-
peared with his little boy at the door
Of Dennis Doheny's cabin on Ora
hams island and asked for something
to eat. This was given him. He went
to Doheny's granary, a mile from the
house, where he lay down and died.
The little boy, much frightened, ran
to Doheny's house for assistance. The
body was taken to Fort Totten.
Napiasu was seventy-eight years
old. He belonged to the Sioux tribe
and vas regarded as being n of their
most influential men,. He spoke no
English. He took an active part in
the massacre at New Ulm in 1852.

Of all the Hypnoticts and Mind
Reading experts, up on the Am

stands confessedly at the head.
His native abilities in this direct
ion are wonderful and show that
he possesses occult powers of a
high type. He takes a class of
twenty from the audience and in
a very few moments he has them
under perfect control, ready to
obey his slightest wish. They
will see things which he suggests
with reality of perfect vision as
if they stood before the object.
All sorts of Authorizations are ex-
perienced, and all kinds of vagar-
les are exhibited, but the whole
entertainment, while exhibiting
all of the phenomena of Hypnot-
tism, is done without the slight
est detriment to the subject.
They go through the most sur
prising feats, and than awaken
and enjoy the entertainment and
laugh at their comrades who are
executing some ridiculous feat in
their turn. We know nothing
that will compare ininterest with
