italy specifically providing for the re-
turn TO either country of citizens of
the other country who has committed
a crime abroad he may go free.
In the present case no such compile
cations are probable as the British
American exeradition treaty leaves no
loop hole Of which the suspected Grim
inals may take advantage The Lon
don police have made definite charges
against DR.. Crippen and propose to
get him with the cooperation of the
American authorities.
DR.. Crippen who is dentist and 30
years of age, has made his home for
some time at 80 Hilldrop Crescent,
North London. Some time ago his
wife. Belle Gilmore, vaudeville actress
and treasurer OF the Musical Artists
guild, disappeared and subsequently
the notice of her death appeared in the
local papers. The fact of her demise
was generally credited but there was
more or less gossip among the women
ntimates and this finally reached the
ears of the police The latter visited
DR. Crippen and the interview appear
ed to be satisfactory.
Battered Body Found.
Saturday noon DIR. Crippen disap-
peared and since then the police have
not been able to locate him. Yester-
day a search of the Crippen house was
made and the battered body of the
woman was found buried in the cellar.
1t had been placed in quick lime and
was burned beyond recognition. The
discovery of the body together with
other discoveries today has left no
doubt in the minds of the authorities
that the murdered woman was Mrs.
Crippen.
Indications point to a coolly planned
murder. Early in February last a let
ter signed Belle Gilmore" was re-
ceived by the Vaudeville Artists guild
stating that the writer had gone to
America on business This letter, the
police say, was intended to cover up
the crime, but as it turned out, 1t fur
nished an evidence of criminality.
Belle Gilmore spelled her name with
one a." The discrepancy was recog.
nized and aroused suspicion among the
members of the guild and largely in
fluenced them in determining to bring
the woman's strange disappearance to
the attention of the authorities Then
an advertisement appeared announcing
that Belle Gilmore had died at Los An
geles. Cal. An investigation showed
the advertisement to have been untrue.
1t was learned today that when the
officers visited Crippen they forced him
to admit that his wife had not died
in California He then said, according
to the detectives, that he and his wife
had quarreled and that following the
quarrel she disappeared. The police
refused to accept this explanations be-
cause of the fact that the woman was
found to have left her jewelry and
money behind.

weeds. In some cases when weedy
the corn was whiting.
THE teachings of the experts in
Montana and Washington on the bet
ter farming" special train was to this
effect: fall pillow and pillow deep, har-
row early in the spring grow a Gull
tivated crop, follow this with a grain
crop and where the rain fall is over
fifteen inches this could be followed
with crop of clover. They claim that
the growing Of a crop of corn was as
good as summer following and were
advocating this method of saving
moisture. They also emphasized the
need OF killing weeds, as these are
large users of moisture as we'll as
plant food. Where the soil would
drift easily they recommended using
the disc in producing the soil mulch
as 1t would leave the ground rougher
than the harrow and would not blow
so easily.
THE soil in North Dakota is fully
as rich and fully as retentive of moist
ure as in either of these states. and
the rainfall is sufficient to grow good
crops, provided 1t Is not allowed to
escape either by running off when 1t
comes down in a heavy rain or by
evaporating from the soils surfac &C.
Another thing that needs to be given
especial attention in our North Dakota
farming is the getting rid of weeds,
and there Is no better way to do this
than by growing corn or by summer
following. In growing corn, however
valuable crop is secured, and it prac-
tically assures a good crop the next
year, If it is clean cultivated Another
practice that some farmers have been
trying is to keep narrowing their grain
until 1t heads out and they have done
so with much success. This would
seem to be little rough on the grain,
and 1t might be best to experiment on
a small piece first. Another important
consideration is the keeping Of organic
matter in the soil, as it helps to hold
the moisture in the soil and helps
to make plant food available. One
objection to the summer fallow is that
1t allows the organic matter in the soil
to burn up and none Is added.
while the biggest crops in these
states were raised with irrigation, yet
a much finer quality is produced by
the dry farming methods, and even
where they are irrigating they are
coming to the conclusion that the less
water they can apply and the more
they can conserve what falls naturally
by tillage, the better the results. An
other thing to keep in mind is to get
the crops in early and to grow early
maturing crops and to always be pre-
pared for dry season. This is not
peculiar to North Dakota. The writer
remembers in his boyhood days three
successive years of drouth in the state
of Wisconsin when there was not
enough wheat grown on 1S0-acre
farm to furnish bread for a family and
yet the rainfall there is almost twice
that of North Dakota" SKIS

Dry Years Prove Value
of DryFarming Method
w c. Palmer Who Was With Better Farming Train to the
Coast Tells How Washington and Montana
Are WithStanding the Drouht

Prof. w. c. Palmer, who has just
returned from a trip through Montana
and Washington with the Northern
Pacific better farming train, states
that those states have had the driest
summer since they started In farming
having had not rain since the middle
of April, yet in spite of this the crops
are looking fine In many sections
where they are practicing the dry
farming methods
I'm the Gallatin valley in Montana,
the bottom lands are irrigated and of
course they raise big crops, but the
bench lands that cannot be reached
by water are also farmed by the dry
farming methods and while the rain
fall is less than in North Dakota, yet
where they had practiced the good
tillage they had enough water stored
up in the soil to carry the crop through
to maturity" said Mr.. Palmer. Con
siderable winter wheat is raised there
and the crop is in very good condi-
tion, Spring wheat and oats were not
looking so good and yet they will pro-
duce a good crop in spite of the dry
weather. Their methods there are to
summer fallow every other year and
in summer following to stir the ground
occasionally SO as to keep UP the soil
mulch. In other words they aim to
catch all the rain that falls by deep
blowing and to let none of it escape
by stirring the surface. In this sec
ton if they would try to raise a crop
every year the wheat would not yield
over seven or eight bushels per acre,
but by growing a crop every other year
the yields run from twenty to forty.
TN the Palouse country of Washing
ton 1t has been equally dry this sum-
mer, yet the crops that have been
grown according to dry farming
methods are in fine condition, while
those that have been handled care
lessly are almost failure. The us
ual rain fall in this section is over
twenty inches.
"At Ritzville the rain fall is from
ten to twelve inches. Here again
dry farming methods are bringing
about fair crops. although it is work
ing under very severe conditions and
nc attempt is made to grow crop only
every other year.
These crop conditions in the face
of the very dry summer should be
particularly encouraging to us in North
Dakota and emphasizes the need of
storing up moisture so as to have a
supply of it in the ground that will
carry crop through a considerable
portion of the summer without rain.
Many section of this state are now suf-
fering from a lack of such preparation.
The writer in going through the state
saw several fields that would have
very good crop while the adjoining
one would be practically failure,
and the good crop would be one grown
on corn land. In those sections where
the grain had been completely dried
UP corn and potatoes were yet doing
nicely where thtEy we're free from
