sideration it is a very much cheap
err and better plan to buy sturdy
growthy trees from the nursery
man as he is invariably an expert
in his line and can grow and care
for the young trees very much bet
tire and more cheaply than the aver
age person. Pine seed usually
costs about three dollars per
pound while eight or twelve inch
seedlings as priced by western
nufserymen sell at from three to
ten dollars per hundred. The VAR
ieties of evergreens best adapted
to North Dakota conditions are
the Black Hill spruce, Colorado
Blue spruce, Blue Pine or Pom
derosa, Jack Pine, and Red Cedar.

AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
HALF MINUTE TALKS

Is the tanning mill working
these day to pay it's years rent?
The following crop rotation,
used on the demonstration farm at
Darlington, is especially recon-
mended for parts Of the state where
dry seasons may be expected, or
where the nature Of the soil and
subsoil is such that the rainfall
does not remain near the roots of
the plants: First comes a mixed
crop of oats and peas intended for
hay. followed by wheat, corn,
wheat, corn, and finally wheat.
This gives a six year rotation that
will hold a very large percentage
Of the water that falls during the
season.
If you make up your mind that
you have been blowing too shallow
it is the best to add only a little
each year to the depth of the fur
row. A large amount of new soil
turned up by the pillow will reduce
the crop yield.
A good garden, plenty of butter
and eggs, fresh home raised meat
these are some of the things that
go toward solving the hired man
question.
Typhoid fever ought not to exist.
Its germs are carried by impure
water and milk. See to it that
your we'll is clean, with no drain
age toward it from the barnes ane
other outbuildings.
For the same reason that tn,
business man takes his trade paper
the farmer needs to take the hes
agricultural papers he can find.

M0NDELL Law
BIC BOON
Throws Burden Of Proof on Govern
ment-.Credit Due mcCumber
for This Amendment

Washington, March 13.-lt is
expected that no less than 10000
patents now hanging fire at the
interior department because of
question of the mineral or nom
mineral character of the land in
volved will be issued forthwith as
a result of the passage Of the Mon
dell coal land bill. The area d.
rectly effected extends north and
south as far as Norh Dakota and
New Mexico and west from Wy
oming to Washington.
Under the provisions of this law
the entrymen will get patent to
the surface mineral and all unless
at the time of final proof the gov
eminent can show that the land is
chiefly valuable for coal, otherwise
the government will have no re-
dress. In the opinion Of Mr.. Mon
dell chairman of the house on public
lands the bill covers all classes of
non-mineral entries and selec-
tions.
Another important feature is the
fact that the measure applies to
entries heretofore or hereafter
made.
Senator McCumber in discussing
the new law with newspaper cor
respondents said: ''The effect Of
this provision of the law, if fairly
constructed by the department,
will greatly expediate the issuance
Of patents to lands upon which
final proof has heretofore been
made as it provides that such To-
Gator, selector or entyman shall be
entitled to patent without reser-
walton if his proof has shown good
faith and full compliance with the
law and it will be Of material bene-
fit to those who shall hereafter
make final proof because it lays up
on the government the burden of
proving at the time final proof is
made that the land is chiefly valu-
able for coal. If it is not proven at
the time the entryman is entitled
to his patent
Continuing he said: 1.-The act
as you will note provides for the
issuance Of patent reserving to
the United States the coal lands
entered in good faith under the
agricultural laws in all cases where
the government is able to prove
its contention that the land is
CHIEFLY valuable for coal and it
also gives the entryman the right
to mine coal for his own use upon
the land in such case.
MY advise is that the entryman
should not accept a limited patent
unless they are morally certain
that the government would be able
to maintain it's contention that
their land is chiefly valuble for
coal or until that question has been
definitely determined in favor of
the government.
