TIMELY TOPICS.

Now is the cluck of the setting hen
head in the land. A month ago we
were at our wits end to find a few
settlers; now the question is how to
break them from setting and get them
back on their rightful job again. For
this purpose it is good plan to con-
struct box two and half or three
feet wide, on legs two or three feet
off the ground, with hinged openings,
in the top and nice open work botto m
of wire fencing. This makes nice
cool apartment for the broody hens
and will change their ideas about as
quickly as anything I know off. The
box should be made long enough to
meet the probable requirements and
divided by partitions into compart-
ments three feet long. Chalk the
date on each compartment when you
fill 1T with broody hens.
This method has obvious advantages
over tying tin cans or red flannel rags
to the hens tail, setting her in tub
of water or suspending her head
downward from hook on the wall of
the chicken house. 1t is more hu-
name and does no damage to the bird.
While confined in these broody coops
the fowls should receive little food eX
cept plentiful supply of green stuff.
The warm weather is at hand and SO
are the mites and other insect pests

she converts her present machine into
a receptacle for swill OF ashes and gets
one of a standard make and of more
practicable size.
Recently lady called on me and
told me some of her troubles in hatch
ing. A twenty per cent hatch which
dragged through twenty-five or TWEEN
ty three days with most of the chicks
lett dead in the shell. Careful
questioning disclosed the fact that
the thermometer was SO placed in the
incubator that it registered a temper
allure of several degrees higher than
the average temperature of the eggs.
Since writing the above [ am in
receipt of few more Matching tales.
Says Des Moines correspondent: =
"When | got home with the eggs
(53) found l had but one setting hen
instead of the three ] expected, so |
set her with II eggs and got l6 fine
chicks. | held the rest a few days
and then got ne1ghbor to put them
in his machine and we had very
good hatch although great many
died in the shell. There were only
four infertile eggs, | have 80 chicks
the balance (14) died in the shell. "
Observe that here is another case
where the hen puts it up to the incu-
bator. | wish that every customer of
mine that buys an incubator lot of
eggs would set few under hen as a
check on the machine. In this case
am of the opinion that not enough
moisture was used. | save many
chicks every hatch by supplying plen-
ty of moisture during the last two
weeks of the hatch and by sprinkllng
the eggs while the hatch is coming off.
This from a correspondent from
Bremerton. 81 put 80 eggs in an Iron
Mamma. On the eighth day | tested
out eight eggs. On the twenty first
day Matched out % nice, strong look
ing chicks; the other IA eggs were al
most fully developed chicks dead in
the she'll. Then l put SO Leghorn
and 53 Orpington eggs IN Petaluma

your houses, roosts and nests now end
next month whitewash the houses and
spray again. And to keep these pests
from gaining foothold there is no
more effective method known than
that of removing the droppings every
morning and busting the roosts with
ashes. Don't use one of those dinky
little tin hand sprayers. If YOU could
get one that would last through a
whole days work you would get
mighty little accomplished in that
time. Get good pump spray with a
long nozzle and spray good and hard.
A cheap grade of coal oil with a quart
of crude carbolic acid to every five
gallons makes a good spray. Distillate
is equally as effective as coal oil and
costs less. A solution of zenoleum is
good and can be applied hot When
you have finished spraying pump
few gallons of clear water through the
spray pump before putting it away.
And the rats, worst pest of all. Now
is the time to wage unrelenting war
fare on them if you would raise many
of your young chicks to maturity.
You have to change your mode of at
tack pretty frequently. | find it
good plan to switch from poison to
traps and to use different kinds as
we'll. They will take strychnine
for a while but you must be careful
and not overdose them. One or two
small crystals in the center of cube
of fresh meat no larger than dice will
get few of them and then they Will
have no more of it. Then try arsenic
| and as this latter poison is not SO
strong or SO bitter to the taste it is
administered more literally. Little
balls of hamburger steak with the ar
senic in the center is the proper
thing; put a couple of them we'll back
| in each rat hole. The out of sight
snap trap is very effective for while.
Place them along the rats runs close
to the wall of the chicken house; set
them as soon as the fowls have gone to
roost and don't forget to go out and
take them up before you go to bed.
have never had much luck with the
wire cage trap but have found the
barrel trap quite etficacious. And
do not try to rid the whole place of
them, it would hardly be possible, but
[ go after them whenever I find traces
of them in the vicinity of the young
chicks houses and runs and am con-
tent with driving them to the other
end of the place where they can do us
little harm.
Now are we beset with hard luck
stories from beginners about their ex~
perience in running incubatols.
A lady in Stockton. Calf. tells me
that she can get only from five to
twenty five chicks from the fifty eggs
that her incubator holds while her
hens are bringing off good matches.
This would seem to put 1T up to the
incubator pretty strongly, and from
the size of hers suspect it to be one
of the new "Iron Mammas" which

Rural School Needs.

tls4Sa - q. - ANSSA
nufal 0cno0A Neoos.
The most important result Of the re-
cent State Educational association at
Minot was the centering Of the attrac-
ton Of all educators upon the import
ance Of the rural school in the educa-
tional economy Of this state. The
county superintendents at their confer
ence last August said I'VE believe that
the most important single educational
interest in North Dakota is the rural
school" The State Educational asso-
citation at Minot said, I'VE recognize
the rural school as the most important
factor in the education Of the state"
That being accepted, it would appear
that the rural school deserves larger
consideration at the hands OF those who
determine the educational destinies Of
this state, who mould the educational
thought and train the educational
leaders OF this state. There Is an in
sistent demand tor our institutions OF
higher education to grapple with the
problem Of the rural school and solve
it. We do not mean to say that these
institutions are not doing much to help
in this great work. Our Normal
school are providing special courses
for rural school teachers. Our Agri-
cultural college is pushing the teaching
of elementary agriculture in the rural
school. The University men are CIV
ing much time and thought to the con-
sideration Of this problem. The COM
mlttee of seven is made up of men
taken largely from those who teach in

new COURT HOUSE

Citizens Of Glendale Raising
Money BY Subscription
for Site
West Side City Hopes 70 Induce
Commissioners to Take
;%.s. Action Soon.

& The citizens Of Glendale are starting
q movement for . new court house for
Dickey county. They propose to take
the initiative by raising money by
popular subscription in their city to
purchase site and offer it to the
county in consideration Of suitable
court house being erected upon it.
The list was being circulated Wednes-
day and $1,000 has been subscribed SO
far.
The site contemplated is two blocks
north of, the present site. It is hoped
that enough money can be raised to
secure the whole block.
A decent court house has been cry
ing need in this county for several
years and perhaps the delay will result
in a more pretentious structure than
we could have afforded a few years
back.
It is gratifying to know that our
sister city is alive to her responsibilities
in this matter.

PROJECT OF MUCH
VALUE TO FARMER | r
Claims Of Company Under In
vestigation by Local Bust
ness Men.
Good, Cheap Flax Twine Made
at Local Factory q Pos
sibility.

The commercial interest Of the city
was aroused during the past week by
the flax twine proposition advertised
and mentioned in last weeks Times.
F. w. Hines, president and b. CASH
berg, director, Of Wares Grain Binder
Company were here from Minneapolis
to explain their invention and their
plans and sound the local sentiment on
the project for twine factory in
Oakes.
The directors and officials of the
commercial club had meeting Monday
forenoon to give the gentlemen a hear
ing. The decision was that at least
the matter warranted further investi-
cation and committee of three was
selected to go to Minneapolis where
the company has small twine factory
and machines to demonstrate the oper-
alton of binding grain with flax twine
with the newly invented attachment.
The committe was E. w. Bittman,
C. A. Malander and j. w. Bush. Mr..
Bush was unable to get away.sbutl the
other two left Monday evening and are
on their way home today on the belat-
ed 500. AS everything hinges on the
report of the investigators ityis hardly
worth while to go into full description
and details of the scheme.
The project has much inherent merit
if all obstacles can be overcome. A
number of possible points of weakness
call for cautious procedure and
thorough investigation. But with
all Of the company's plans successfully
carried out it means Sc. 90 to $500 per
ton to farmers for their flax straw,
good binding twine at half its
present cost and locally it would mean
a SIS, 900 factory making five tons of
twine per day, besides a large amount
of oakum and other by-products and
employing fifteen or more people at
good wages.

Progressive Conference.

Valley City, Jan. 13.-About so pro-
gressive republicans met in this city
today to talk over the plan of cam
paign. and it was one of the most en-
thusiastic and harmonious political
gathering ever held in the state.
A marked feature of the meeting
was that no one seemed to have any
plan or program for the meeting and
all had their say during the session.
w. L. Stockwell was made chairman
and John Andrews, of Lidgerwood Sec
retary. Mr.. Stockwell stated the OBJ
ject of the meeting, namely, to discuss
the coming campaign and make such
arrangements for making fight as the
meeting should decide. After gen.
eral discussion program was decided
upon, after a long deliberation char
acterised by the utmost cordiality on
the part Of the speakers. Among
those who discussed at some length
their views were Judge Lauder, T.
Twichell, H. T. Helgesen, A. w. Fow-
Ter, w. L. Stockwell, Joseph Devine,
A. L. Woods, j. A. Buchanan and
others.
A committee composed Of o. T. Ris-
hoff of Milton, w. C. Taylor OF La

oAKEs STATE HIGH SCHOOL

Longing is Gods fresh heavenward will
We quench it that we may be still
Content with merely living;
But would we learn the hearts full

Which we are hourly wronging,
Our lives must rise from hope to hope
And realize our longing.
The state examinations are on this
week and every one is more or less
anxious as to the outcome. All hope
for the best.
Attorney A. P. Guy was an invited
caller at the school Friday afternoon
and he gave q very instructive talk to
the advanced American history and
political economy classes on the sub
ject Of taxation. The classes and
teachers appreciated the kindness and
the instructive address.
Have you made that self-promised
visit to the school yet? If not do 80
and you will have pleasant time listen
ing to the recitations and noting the
good quality Of work that is being
done.
One great hindrance>to school work
in general is irregularity. tits such a
detriment to good work that it should
be wholly eliminated from schools.
While the teacher is taking time to
help pupil make up work that he has
missed the members of the class who
have been regular are losing the time
/ that they should have given them in
going over the work they have pre-
pared on advanced lessons. They
might as well have been absent also.
These remarks do not apply to our
schools alone but to all schools. Our
school will average high among the
best. tits the wish and purpose Of
the pupils and teachers of Oakes to
have the best school to be found.
They sincerely ask for the hearty CO.
operation Of every one interested in
the work. Every thing that is fair and
honorable will be done to make it the
best. As has been said before, we do
not want any scnool to do poor work
but even better than has been done,
kbut we have desire to do better than
the others at their best. Give your
Garnet efforts to keep the pupils punct-
ual and regular so as to help in the
work.
