An Ideal Sunday Newspaper.

Recent issues of the Sunday
Record Herald reminds one
that Chicago may fairly lay
claim to producing the best
newspapers in the world, not
excepting those of New York.
The Sunday Record-Herald in
foreign news alone, has it's own
special cable service in addition
to those of the New York
Herald, World, Journal of Com
merce and Associated Press.
This is a fair example of the
completeness of the paper in
every department.
Aside from the regular news
features, there is something in
The Sunday Record Herald for
every member of the family.
The special articles by. William
E. Curtis and Walter Wellman
are always interesting. The
sporting section offers four
whole pages of fresh authentic
news in every line of sport.
The women's section is filled
with illustrated articles on the
latest wrinkles in fashion and

the country any number of
cases can be found where farm
ers buy so-called seed, in which
nearly every kind of weed seed
known in the state can be found
in one handful of the grain.
The only remedy is the tanning g
mill, and if running once
through does not take. out all
the weed seed or shrunken
kernels, run it through again.
If this is done one should get
uniform seed in which the
danger of introducing dan
gerous weeds is reduced to a
minimum. In this case the
average number of kernels per
bushel will have been decreased
and naturally more seed will
be necessary per acre. 1t has
been proven too by the expert
ment station that the average
amount of seed sown to the
acre in North Dakota is already
too small and that one is more
sure of results if he sows at
least IA bushels of seed in
stead of / bushel as many do.

domestic science, with Marion
Harland and Nine Oui Nive as
regular contributors, and Dame
Curtsey's Novelties in Enter
tainment' as a valued feature.
The dramatic page, written by
James O'Donnell Bennett, is
admittedly without an equal in
the west. The array Of splendid
special articles by skilled
writer's, finely illustrated, also
is typical of the high literary
quality OF the Record Herald.
In the way of humor there is
the comic colored supplement
for children, besides Richard
II. Little's laughable articles
for adults and S. +. kiser's
delightful alternating Cur
rents for everybody.
But the thing that lifts The
Sunday Record-Herald most
emphaticallv above all its rivals
is it's magazine section. There
is nothing else that can touch
this in American journalism.
The Sunday Magazine of The
Record Herald is a real maya
zine, full OF stories and articles
by the most famous writer's of
our day, illustrated by cele-
brated artists. In quality and
beauty it compares favorably
with the best monthlies. No
wonder The Record Herald is
regarded as the ideal Sunday
newspaper.

Selection Of Seed Wheat.

K. S. Towle, North Dakota
Agricultural College,: The Sc
lection of seed wheat is the
problem that is very likely
uppermost in the mind of the
North Dakota farmer at the
present time. The selection
should be made in the fall but
inasmuch as large preparation
of farmers have already sold
the greatest part of their grain
and oftentimes the best, the
selection in these cases must
be made from the bin, whether
it be from your own, or buy
from some one else.
Always select fully matured
grain for seed wheat. I'm ma
ture seed wheat even if it
grows will usually produce a
weak plant. Grain that has
been wet and subject to freezing
and thawing, or has become
heated in the bin, is also likely
not to grow and should not be
used without a thorough test.
Only plump, medium sized
seed, free from weeds should
be used. The small shriveled
kernels lack vitality, and are
not likely to produce strong
plant. while the largest seed
has also been proven to be
often lacking in vitality and
fails to produce healthy plants
even if it terminates. One can
never expect to rid his land of
weeds if he continues to SOW
them with his grain. To secure
the right kind of seed the use
of the tanning mill cannot be
too strongly urged.
To many it would seem that
this subject of cleaning the
seed has been dwelt upon
enough already, but throughout

Stone Hotel Threatened With Destruc.
tlon Wednesday Morning.
LOSS IS ESTIMATED At $4,000
Efficient Work on the Part of the
Firemen Gets Fierce Blaze
Under Control.

The Stone hotel, Bottineau' 8
leading hostelry, was threaten
ed with destruction by fire
Wednesday morning and it was
only by efficient work on the
part of the firemen that the
structure was saved. AS it was,
the building and contents were
damaged by fire and water to
the extent of So, 5000 to So, 800.
The fire broke out in the
kitchen. which is located in the
southeast corner of the build
ing, and worked it's way up
along the lath and scantling
between the stone and plaster
walls to the third floor.
The tiremen answered the
call promptly and soon had the
chemical engines at work, and
in a short time had hose laid
and water ready. The fire had
gotten a start between the
floors and some difficulty was
experienced in locating it, but
it was finally confined to the
east part of the building. The
kitchen and the chambers on
the second and third floors in
this part of the house were
badly damaged. The halls and
nearly every room in the house
we're more or less damaged by
smoke and water.
G. A. Ganser, the proprietor
of the hotel, estimates his loss
at 81, 500. The building, which
is owned by the McBrayne
estate, was damaged to the
extent of 81, 500 or $4,000. The
losses are covered by insurance.
The house was full of guests
at the time of the fire, half a
dozen travellers having been
turned away the night before.
Court being in session there
are many strangers in the city.
The house was opened again
Wednesday night but number
of the rooms could not be used.

REF0E MERS after The COIN,
BIckford and Miller, Prize Insurgents
Disregard State Law.

Bismarck special: The con-
tinued insinuations and fake
reports of Muckraker Packard
against state officials have re-
suited. in the limelight being
turned on some of the men
Packard seeks to shield.
One investigation has already
hit Attorney General Miller
and State Treasurer Bick ford,
two of the insurgent officials.
Attorney General Miller is a
member of law firm, which
also handles fire insurance.
The record shows that the at
torney general on January 7
drew state warrant 7S, 1856 for
81 $50 worth of insurance his
firm issued on the penitentiary.
Miller. as attorney general,
is a member of the state audit
ing board. The records show
that he reported his own bill
for this insurance, audited it
himself and drew the money.
Section 91O3 of the penal
code provides that state officials
who are members of purchasin g
boards can't themselves sell to
the state e-and there you are.
The records of the office of
the state treasurer show that
State Treasurer Bickford has
sent 500, 600 of the state funds
to his bank at Bowbells. There
is nothing on record to indicate
that BiCkford's bank has been
designated as a state deposi-
tory. Some months ago this
bank made application for state
funds and at that time filed a
$40, 600 bond. This is all the
state has to show for the $40, 600
deposited in the state tresur-
er's bank.
The disclosures on Miller and
Bickford are causing some of
the insurgent shouters about
graft" to duck for cover.

A Denial from High Authority.

From National Food Maga-
zine," Chicago: DIR. H. w.
Wiley, chief chemist of the
agricultural department, has
demanded of the Calumet
Baking Powder company of
Chicago that it cease the publ
cation of alleged certificates or
statements that that he had
endorsed the Calumet Baking
powder, or reported in favor of
it's purity, wholesomeness or
superiority. Such statements,
he says, are false.
DR.. Wiley never served upon
a committee of awards, as al
legged, nor signed such a report
or certificate, nor did he ever
indorse the Calumet Baking
Powder in any way. On the
contrary, DIR. Wiley testified
before a congressional commit
tee relative to alum in food, as
follows: AS | have said re-
peatedly, l do not use it in my
own home, and would not use
alum in bread if l knew it.
Alum is injurious. y
1t seems that DIR. Wiley's
demand that the Calumet COM
pany should cease these publ
cations, which are, he says,
against the TRUTH" was not
complied with, although he
says he has done all he could
to stop the base and mex
cusable use of his name.
J The public will share in DIR.
Wiley's mitigation that his
name and official position
should be fraudulently used to
aid in foisting upon consumers
a food compound made from
ingredients which the doctor
has publicly declared to be
injurious.

KENMARE GAME VERY EXCITING
Leeds Defeated in IooseIy-PIayed
Game by Score of 20 to IL
on Friday Night.

The School of Forestry bas-
ketball team defeated the Ken
mare high school on the local
floor Thursday evening in the
fastest game ever played here,
by a score of % to 2S.
OF the six teams the Forestry
boys have faced this year, Ken
mare is by far the fastest and
they showed it by playing ex-
cellent ball all through the
game.
The Forestry boys started the
scoring but were hard pressed
by their husky opponents but
by fast playing they held the
lead throughout the half and
finished five points to the good,
the half ending IL to II.
Both came back strong in the
last half and the score soon
was a tie, with the remainder
of the game a nip and tuck
struggle for the lead until the
last minute and a half of play.
Here the score was a tie again
but with a grand stand finish
on basket shooting the Forestry
boys nOsed out a we'll earned
victory.

The next evening the Leeds
high school team came to try
conclusions with the Forestry
boys, and here the home boys
added another scalp to their
belt by defeating the visitors
to the tune of ~ to 23 in a
poorly played game.
The first half was uninterest-
ing as neither team displayed
team work and the half ended
with the score tie, 8 to 3.
The last half brought the
Forestry boys back with a de-
termination to win the game
and in a few minutes secured
the lead and held it the remain
der of the half and by time the
whistle blew for time the For
estry boys were playing all
around the Leeds team.
The Leeds team were much
smaller boys but put a fine
game against their larger op-
ponents, who had more en-
duranCe.
