Federal Inspection Of Grain and Solu.
ton of the DOckage Problem

The dockage of North Dakota grain
as now conducted, is little better than
downright spolation of helpless
farmers, who have to submit>to the
rulings of the Minnesota State In
spectors whether the same are just
or not. The Board of Trade men in
Chicago are particularly violent in
their characterization of the wheat
growers of this state. If there are
any doubts on this subject, all that
one has to do, is to investigate the
proceedings and speeches Of the con-
vention hold in Chicago, September
II the reading Of which, will convince
the most ske ptical that the farmers
OF the northwest need not look for
fair dealings from Board of Trade
men no matter where they transact
their business.
Many of the brokers at the meeting
denounced Federal inspection as un-
constitutional, and that it would put
too much power in the hands Of the
Secretary of Agriculture, one speak
err said, "the Importance of main
tanning the high standard of dealings
now prevailing in Board of Trade
transactions is paramount, this at
tempt of few politicians to foist
Federal Inspection on the country is
doomed to failure, should such a
thing come to pass, it would result
in utter decentralization of the grain
business, with consequent losses to
the farmer, it is the policy of the
Board of Trade to extend the helping
hand to the armer, through the in
strumentality of the Board of Trade,
it has been possible for the farmer
to secure good prices for his grain,
and Just treatment, I have never
of a legitimate complaint made
against the Chicago Board of Trade
Senator McCumber speaking for
Federal Inspection stated, Federal
Inspection of grain will do more for
the farmers of the northwest and in
fact for all of the grain producing
states, than any other legislation
that has been enacted for tillers of
the soil, it means, that there will be
no dockage, that dirt when found in
the grain, will be removed by clean
ers, and the screenings will be given
to the man to whom they belong, that
there will be a universal system of
grading, in fact equity between the
sellr and buyer"
The Society of Equity believes that
Federal Inspection Is the remedy for
unjust grading and that the dock
age problem can be solved in no
other way.

Agricultural College New Service.
(Hugh ]. Hughes. Repor.er.) -.
BY C. B. Waldron, Prof. of Horu-
culture and FORESTRY.
In country devoid of natural pro
lection for t. ees and shrubs it is ne
cessary that the grower exercise par
ticular care in order to bring his
plants thru the rather trying winter
season found in North Dakota.
There are many plants that can
Withstand almost any degree Of cold
that are unable to endure the trying
conditions arising from the exposed
situation in which they must grow.
All plants lose q certain amount Of
moisture during the winter season. II
this loss OF moisture Is so Great as to
leave the tissues ef the plant very
Try. growth in the spring may be
weak or tardy, or in many instances
may not begin at all.
Z There are several methods Of pre-
venting this excessive drying out Of
the plant during the winter season.
With small shrubs out Of the plant
during the winto' season. Wjbh small
shrubs or evergreens this can be &C.
compTshed by INCREASING the plant in
straw and binding it with Irvine or
burlap. Since evergreens are more
subject to the drying out processes
than trees which shed their foliage it
b quite essential that they be pro-
tected in this manner during the first
few years
The presence of wind-break. es-
pecially on the south and west, is a
very effective means of lessening the
damaging effect of drying winds. The
practice of mulching also brings the
same result. With the ground about
the trees heavily covered with old
straw the freezing is considerably de-
layed, making shorter time in which
the trees are being dried out without
getting In return supply of moisture
thru their roots.
It is also important that the soil
about the trees be thoroly wet before
freezing sets in. Perhaps the best
method is to thoroly wet the ground,
and then cover with a liberal coat OF
old straw,
Mr.. Beals of the agricultural Col
lege has been out for the past five
months with a corps of men, planting
golden willow as snow-beraks along
the Northern Pacific railway from
Magnolia to Buffalo and from Bracken
to Oriska. 100000 golden willows
were planted, and in time they will
replace the old and unsightly snow
fences of today. Two rows are plant
ed on the north side of the track, one
at distance of 100 feet, and the

Dairy at Wendell
jerome, February Is.

Fred W. Hastings, of Wendell,
has bought a car load of COWS, most
ly of the Jersey persuasion, and is
preparing to establish a gilt-edge
dairy. Mr.. Hastings is one OF the pi-
oneers of Wendell and the North
Side tract, he having gone there be-
fore the formal opening of the land
for entry. He believes that the
raising of good stock is going to be
very profitable on the fertile lands
of the North Side, and is preparing
to take his share of the profits from
his fine place near Wendell.

Pan-HandIerS Meet the

1t a Little Bit

Forty-two buns and fioaters OF
various sizes, degrees and colors
were passed on out of town the first
three days of this week. Marshal
Ames didn't have to tell any of them
but once. They clung to the brake
rods, to the blinds, jumped on the
cow-catchers, and decorated almost
every other part of the outward
bound train with their fear-striken
anatomies. Some of them are said
to have even walked out, an almost
unprecedented thing. Perhaps not
many have ever realized just how
many of these travellers there have
been making their home, or at least
a good long resting place, in Sho-
shone, until figures like these are
collected to show what is doing.
Some efficient crossing cleaning
was inagurated by the marshal, who
believes in a sweep-clean, with both
men who stay and those who do not
stay. Prisoners were utilized for the
work, and for the first time ma long
while the crossings were cleaned off.
There isn't any reason to suppose
that ShOshone will hereafter have as
many ragamuf1n signs and red noses
and pan-handlers as have been here
in the past, once the work system
and the prize fighting marshal get
into full operation.

MAJOR REED LETS GO.
Too Much Business on North Side to
Handle GOoding Also.
ichfeld, February Is.

Owing to the great rush Of bust
ness in land town lots on the North
Side, Major Fred r. Reed has re-
tired from the general agency Of the
Gooding townsite, and will devote
himself entirely to the othed towns
and the farm land of the company
outside of Gooding Major Reed is
one of the best known bosters in Id
aho, and his name alone is a valua-
Bile asset to any enterprise. The
sale of Jerome and Wendell lots
has been phenominal, within the past
month acreage and town lots have
been sold to the amount of approxi-
mately S125.O0O having been sold in
and around these towns. The Jer-
ONE acreage sale last Thursdays was
conspicuous success, most Of the
500 acres of newly opened lands
having been sold, except the one
third reserved by the company, to
sell later.
