Experiences Thrilling.

Minot, N. D., Dec. Bop. A. White
tells of an experience he had the
other night while driving his horse
through the hills between Tioga and
White Earth. The coulees were deep
with snow and soon the horse became
tired out. Mr. White saw that he
could go no further with his sleigh,
so unhitched the horse about 8 o'clock
and started out looking for habita-
ton. 1t happened that none of the
houses in that neighborhood were oc-
cupied and after walking through the
deep snow for six hours, he came to
a basement barn, without doors at
the ranch of Doc Adams, where he
found shelter, such as II was, till
morning. During the night he fire.
quently sat dawn in the snow to rest.
and had to fight hard to ward off
sleep, which would surely have meant
death to him. The fact that he has a
robust constitution is no doubt the
only reason that he now lives to tell
the thrilling experience he had About
g o'clock the next morning he found
the farm home of Sd. Trovan, FIVE
miles north or White Earth, where
he was given food, and there he OBJ
tanned rest

was accidentally discharged in the
hands of Nemetz, the bullet entering
Schuveiller's left chest just above the
nipple, ranging upward and backward
through his heart. Dr. Hubbard was
Immediately called, but the unfortu-
nat man lived but few minutes. The
shooting occurred about $3.50 in the

The only occupant of the store at
the time Of the accident was a brother
of Louis Nemetz, who was counting
the cash and did not see the accident
He heard the report of the gun and
heard the injured man cry, my God,
am shot!" At the request of his
brother he ran for the doctor.
Several witnesses were examined
and it was shown the men were good
friends and no quarrel preceded the
accident. The jury, j. f. Devlin, r. B.
wilmington and ]. F. Wilsey returned
a verdict of death by accidental shoot
ing.

BOY scout TROOP
FOR WAHPETOE

wahpeton, n. D.. Dec. 30.--It is prob.
able that the boy scout movement will
be inaugurated in this city to be man
aged in harmony with the athletic
association recently formed here by
the business men. According to the
bylaws Of the association as they ex-
list at present, boys over 10 years of
age are admitted to membership and
the scout movement would take the
boys OF this age and others not belong
ing to the association and enlist with
in it's own membership. The movement
would be supervised by the officials of
the association, who are prominent
business men of the city, and doubtless
would be made a great success.

TERRIBLE FALL
FROM BRIDGE TOP

Grand Forks, N. D., Dec. 30.-Fred
McIlraith, IS years old, son of James
McIlraith, who resides at 337 South
Fourth street, East Grand Forks, was
severely bruised and probably inter
nally injured by falling from the top
of the trestle work of the approach to
the DeMers avenue bridge, where he
was employed, this morning.
The young man was on the girder
which rests on the first row of piling
next to the bridge, and while helping
to move a heavy piece of timber,
slipped on the girder which was not
only coated with tar but covered with
a light snow, and fell to the earth be-
meath, a distance of thirty five feet.
Fortunately there were no obstruc-
tio-s i'm his path and by his efforts
while falling he seemed to right him
self and probably saved his life. Fellow
workmen rushed to places where they
could descend to the injured man, and
hastily examination showed that
while he was badly injured, he was
conscious. A stretcher was quickly
procured and he was lifted upon IL
and carried to the street and rushed

medical aid had been summoned and
everything possible was done TO al
leviate his suffering.
An examination showed that while
he was badly bruised no bones were
broken and unless internal injuries
were received, and complications
arise he has a fat, chance of recov-
ering. He was removed to st. Mich
ael's hospital this afternoon.
James McIlraith, the young mans
father, is the contractor on the new
approach to the bridge which is being
erected on the east side.

OFFERS CURE FOR
WHEAT SICK LAND
CEREAL SANITATION OF BOTH
SEEDS AND SOIL ADVOCATED
BY DEAN BoLLEY.

st. Paul, Dec. 30,-Pronodncing the
results Of scientific Investigations that
may work revolution in agriculture
and agricultural education and up
setting in part the theories held in the
past as to the causes for declining
wheat yields, Prof. II. L. Bolley OF the
North Dakota Agricultural college ad-
dressed the botanical section of the
American Association for advance
ment of science at the university
yesterday. Dean Bolley's subject was
THE Work of Imperfect Fungi In
Cerial Crop Deterioration"
The Importance of crop rotation and
fertilization. especially by manure,
which may work harm rather than
benefit toward the crop was empha-
sized by DR.. Bolley, who urged cereal
sanitation Of both seeds and soil as a
remedy for the deterioration and the
yield and quantity of wheat.
The paper gave an outline OF the
experiments conducted by Prof Bolley
and his assistants at the North DaSo-
Ia Agricultural college, dealing with
the imperfect fungi in cereal cropping.
Summary of Conclusions.
The essential conclusions may be
summarized about as follows: The soil
of the older wheat areas of the north
west are in the same sort of sanitary
condition as the old fiax-cropped lands
and may quite properly be spoken OF
as wheat or wheat tired, i'm the
same sense as has been previously
shown for fax lands. Wheat and 9TH
er cereal lands are not necessarily
depleted chemically, as indicated by
many agricultural and chemical
writers. but may only be incapable OF
producing proper yields because Of
poor sanitary conditions in the soil or
in the seed.
1t is indicated that the proper con-
sideration of sanitary methods of
handling soils and seeds will prove a
great boon to cereal crop growers, but
that in order to accomplish this it may
be necessary to re-arrange methods Of
fertilizing soils and our system of crop
rotations. "These observations re-
garding the persistence of disease in
the seed and in the soil will, of neces-
sity, materially change our IDEAS" said
Prof Bolley, with regard to why one
crop does better after than before
some other crop" These observations
it is thought, explain many of the
anomalies of farm cropping; why GER
tain methods of manuring result in
shriveling of seed wheat; why the at
lacks of rust are so destructive; why
proper seed treatment has always re-
suited i'm better yields than could be
explained by the presence or absence
of smut alone; why the corn crop has
proved to be such a beneficial crop
to precede wheat, etc.

knowing him for 20 years, when he
was destitute. The articles were
missed, and on Hopner being spoken
to about them he went away. Mr.
