PLOW EXHIBITION
AT STATE FARM
THE UNIVERSAL GAS TRACTOR
GAVE FLOWING EXHIBITION AT
N. .. STATE AGRICULTURAL
GROUNDS sATuRDAY--MADE AT
cRooksToN.

AS advertised, the Universal gasoline
traction engine built by the Crookston
Mfg. Co., at Gro kston, Mimi, gave a
blowing exhibition at tie state farm, in
the presence of a largo number of in
terested farmers and business men, as
we'll as quite number of college stu
dents.
The Universal tractor is a very neat
appearing engine, being compactly
built and simple in construction,
weighing but 5000 pounds, yet is very
powerful as was shown by the work
done, pulling four fourteen Inch stub
BILE bottoms at the rat of three miles
per hour, in heavy soil (timothy sod),
which had not been plowed for several
years, and turning fur -ows FIVE to six
inches deep, greatly to the surprise Of
all those present, who wers familiar
with gasoline engines and the soil
plowed
After making a number Of rounds
in the sod, to the perfect satisfaction
of all, the tractor was taken into a
stubble field, to show work in soft
footing, and not the slightest trace Of
the wheel tracks was visible, the pillow
following the wheels turning as perfect
The impression formed was that the
Universal is a traction suited to the
demands of the average farmer, many
of those present stating that it was
just what they wanted, ana would own
one the coming season.
The engine is rated at about eigh-
teen actual horse power, and judging
from the manner in which it did the
work, there is no question but that it
has ample power to handle four four
teen-inch plows in any soil In addi-
ton to blowing, being light it is well
adapted to the putting in of the crops,
pulling binders, hauling on the road.
threshing, grinding feed, running the
schroeder, and in fact can be used to
excellent advantage where power is re-
CURED, either as traction or station
airy.
BY using a forward lift lever, the
engine and plows are easily handled
by one man, which is a point of econ
omy.
We predict a great sale Of Universal
gasoline traction engines, and we UNI
derstand that the company has made
arrangements to turn out several hun
dred the coming season.
Messrs. Espe and Brown who were
here with the machine, are taking an
excellent way Of advertising the en-
CINE, In taking it around to different
places, demonstrating and showing
that they have gasoline traction
which they have confidence in. and go
into any field without fear, knowing
that they can depend on the machine
doing the work satisfactorily.

In the district court the petitions If

MUCH INTEREST
in STUDY WORK
REPORT OF EDUCATIONAL DE-
PARTMENT OF Y. M. c. A. FOR
OCTOBER SHOWS MOST EN-
coURAeINe PROSPECTS FOR
WINTER.

The report of the educational depart
ment of the Y. M. c. A., for the month
of October is out. It shows a high
standard of work in large classes with
good attendances.
BY this report it is shown that in
the two English classes for foreigners
a total attendance of seventy six for
the month was had. The enrolment of
these classes is thirteen.
In the Foreign English class, three
are enrolled, Ave meetings were held
and total attendance of fourteen for
the month was had.
In the class for employed boys, in
which the common branches are taught,
five are enrolled, six meetings were
held with a total attendance OF thirty
four.
Another class for employed boystak
ing up the work corresponding to the
seventh grade in the common schools,
four are enrolled, six meetings were
held with an attendance Of twenty
/ four.
The class in mechanical drawing en-
rolled seven, held six meetings with
an attendance for the month of thir-
/ ty-six.
In arcntecturaI drawing class OF
seven was enrolled. 1t held four meet
ings with total attendance of TWEEN
! ty-four.
/ A penmanship class composed OF
eight held six meetings with an at
tendance of thirty four.
j This is very good showing. The
4 secretaries of the association say that
taking into consideration the warm
weather which has been almost con-
tinual this fall this is most remark
able attendance. They also state that
the work is of high grade, much time
being spent in study and giving the
best results. OF course these classes
are never self-supporting and it is
not expected to make them so but the
report is significant Of the great in
terest that is being taken in this de-
partment of the associations work.

Total .............. s

That the figures are deceTtrul is
admitted beyond doubt. To those
in a position to know, it is certain
that the number of births exceed the
deaths in Fargo by very fair ma
jority, but that don't alter the official
record in the lease.
1t is the opinion of the auditor that
only between so and Sc per cent of the
births are reported by the attending
physician. While there is a penalty
provided by state law for failure to
report every birth, the provisions have
never been enforced, there being no
one directly interested in the matter
sufficiently to start an action.
In the matter OF deaths, it is abso-
lutely necessary to report the deaths
to the auditor in order to secure a
burial permit. No body can be inter
red at local cemeteries, or shipped
away without a permit being secured.
Unless some change is made in the
system that is now in vogue. the Off
cial record for this city will be entirely
misleading.

The Tariff and the Future.

The Jacksonville CFIa) Times-Union,
commenting on The Stars prediction that
no permanent divisions in either party
are likely to result from the present more
or less bitter tariff controversy. says:
The division in democratic ranks has
been greatly exaggerated. Louisiana has
elected to Congress a number Of repub-
licans who claim to be democrats but
who. as far as we can remember, have
voted with the republicans on every di-
vision that has been made during the
present session. These men should not
be permitted in the democratic caucus
They vote with the republicans: they
should bear the republican stamp, and
II Louisiana wishes to send them back
to Congress as republicans she has q per-
feet right to do so; but no delegation
representing the views that these men
entertain should be permitted to take part
In a democratic convention
This Ia much too severe on the Lou,si-
anans. They have not gone beyond dem
ocrats from other southern states except
In gratitude and the full courage Of con-
victions Asking protection for the prin-
cipal industry of their own state, they
have voted protection in return to the
industries of other states. Why not ?
Besides. they are not the first Louisiana

self, and his name will bring many
democrats to the polls. Not in many
years has any man established so strong
a party hold in Virginia as the present
senior senator. He appeals to his people
both on the side of pride and sentiment.
He is an orator after their taste, and
ranks we'll in the Senate, and he served
with credit in the Confederate army. The
combination, orator and soldier. is strong
in the Old Dominion.
: At the same time, even with the out
look discouraging. the republicans should
make the best campaign possible. In
the lingo of the political song, they
should keep on keeping on" They have
been trying. and trying. and trying
again, always against odds of one kind
or another. The rewards in the way of
Office have been small. A few country
posts, a few places in the legislature.
and one or two in the national House
have family frightened an otherwise long
period of gloom and gray endeavor.
But why despair? What of value in
the field of politics ever comes except
as the result of hard licks persistently
applied? Fortune in such matters never
favors the auitter. Let the Virginia
republicans continue their search, per-
suade or conscript a good man for lead
er. and go into the contest with all the
spirit they can command.

The Stars Base Ball Board.

The local base ball enthusiasm is pro-
verbal. Throughout the country Wash
ington is regarded as an ideal ball
town." where the home team Is certain Of
substantial and loyal support despite the
fluctuations of fortune. Just now the
Nationals are in bit of hard luck, with
the hospital list extensive, but they are
nevertheless putting up a game fight that
evokes the applause of the faithful fol-
lowers of the sport.
The team is about to leave on a long
trip. 1t will play in every city Of the
American League circuit but one before
returning home. and the fans here In
Washington will be interested in its do
ings. The Star is going to keep them
fully posted. The games played by
Washington's representatives in the
league will be reproduced by electricity
on the remarkable board which has pre-
viousy been used to reproduce the games
Of the worlds championship series of 1901
and 1908.
The board has been erected on the 11tf
street side of The Star building, where
1t can be watched in the afternoon with
comfort by great number of people
The shade of the building will cover the
street while the board is tisshing forth
the signals which Tell of every bal
pitched, every play made, every put-ou,
and run. in fact. every feature of the
game.
The Star invites everybody to watch
its base ball returns and hopes that they
will be of kind to keep the enthusiasm
a a high pitch until the conquering
heroes return home the 9th of July.
