Preceding the mass meeting, the men,
bers of the state central and county COM
mittees and other prominent members OF

German Wants Investigation.
Much interest was felt In what would
be said concerning the fraud develop
ments in Baltimore. and the speakers did
not hesitate to discuss that situation.
Senator German was especially emphatic
in his reference to what he called the
.'deplorable situation" and among other
things said that if a recount OF the bal

faint unon his nomination he would at
once tender his resignation to the state

The new plan is to teach the children

The young Stuart, on the memorable
occasion mentioned, was standing before

was required to name every river in
South America and to trace the river
from its mouth to it's source. Now the
Cassaquiera river is peculiar in that 1t is
about an inch long on the map and joins
the headwaters of the Amazon and the
Orinoco. When he reached the river in
his recitation he traced the river back

Ono Of tho Most Thrilling Incidents Of

tho Bull King.
The famous Spanish t0reador Reverte
figured in one of the most thrilling
incidents ever witnessed in the arena.
It was at Bayonne. After disposing of
two bulls Revcrte had twice plunged
his sword into a third of great strength
and ferocity, and as the beast contin-
ued carccring wildly the spectators be.
gan to hiss Reverte for bungling.
Wounded to the very quick OF his
pride, the Spanlard shouted. "The bull
is slain" and, throwing aside bis
sword, sank on one knee with folded
arms in the middle of the ring. He
was right, but he had not allowed for
the margin of accident. The wounded
beast charged full upon him, but the
matador, splendid to the last, knelt
motionless as a statue, while the spec
tators held their breath in Mortified
suspense. Reaching bis victim, the
bull literally bounded at him, and as
he sprang he sank in death, with his
last effort giving one fearful lunge OF
the head that drove horn into the
thigh Of the k9eeling man and laid
bare the bone from the knee to the
Joint. Still Reverte never flinched, but
remained kneeling. exultant in victory.
but calmly contemptuous of applause,
till he was carried away to heal him OF
his grievous wound.

The fact Is her attention had been
given to experiment work chiefly.
That year she graduered four men in
agriculture, in 1907, one; in 1908, five;
In 1909, ten and in 1910, four men.

Any community in North Dakota can
have a set of the very best books on
farming for the asking and paying the
freight. What fret opportunity has
ever come. to a: community, and espe-
cially rural one. =,
During the winter especially there, is
time that can be spent to good advan-
tage in reading and studying books on
agriculture as we'll as on general top
les. Who would not like to know more
of. the soil that ohe turns with the
pillow, Of the plants that we raise, Of
the stock that we breed and feed, OF
the trees that we ought to grow, OF
the fruit that we can have i'll our gar
den, of the vegetables that we ought
to grow, of the weeds that poster our
crops, of the insects and plant diseases
that reduce our yields, of the diseases
that raise havoc with ourselves and
our animals. of the value of foods for
man and beast, of the machinery that
is used in farming, of the houses in
which we live, how to make healthy
pleasant and convenient barns, and how
to make them serve their purpose the
best, and hundred other things too
numerous to mention!
We are fortunate to have a travelling
library of farm books in this state that
can be had by requesting them. And
they are best that have been written
on the subject, books from the pens OF
men who are authorities in their line.
There is no lawyer or doctor who would
hesitate ten minutes i'll getting the lat.
est book on his subject and he would
likely have to pay four to five dollars
for it. Why should not the farmer be
just as anxious to get the latest books
on his work? The writer believes that
when the farmers learn how easy it is
to get books. and books that are writ
ten from a practical standpoint, that
they will be glad to avail themselves
of the opportunity.
Mrs. Minnie Clarke Budlong, secre-
tary of the public library commission at
