fessor Is that many fields are infected
BY spreading manure fresh from the
barns. He holds that the manure
should be properly composted before
taken to the felds--and seems to give
good reasons for his argument. He
shows that manure from barns-in
which infected wheat straw is fed or
used for bedding will infect the land
SO It viii not be possible to raise good
wheat on that soil the current year.
The same is true OF fax. There is one
saving feature. Manure from the use
OF infected FAX fields can be used on
fields to be seeded to wheat without
injury. The same is true OF injected
wheat straw on flax fields.
The menace from the manure can
easily be overcome by composing it.
The process destroys the injection
and in other respects makes the ma
nure Of more value.

soLLEYs NEW THEORY.

Crop rotation is more necessary for
soil and seed sanitation than for in
creasing the soil fertility-however
much It may be Cor the latter-is the
new theory enunciated by Professor
Bolley of the A. C.
In his address before the Dry Farm
ing congress at Dickinson lest week
Professor Bolley spoke on crop rota-
ton and presented new ideas on that
subject.
Heretofore the speakers and wri-
tiers have urged the farmers to rotata
crops primarily because it was be-
heved that the rotation would result
in increased soil fertility. II the new
theory OF Professor BolIey is correct
there 10 double reason for crop ro-
tation. In fact crop rotation ii inn
perativeif the farmers are to secure
profitable yields.
In his speech Professor Bollev ais
ctssed the proneness to stick to the
one-crop idea--because Of their favor
itism to certain crops. their familiar
ity Of raising thsn--and because Of
the special machinery ana equipment
they had purchased for use on par-
ticular crops. The fallacy 81 the po-
sition was shown.

All dressed in gold braid uniforms. It

Points him out to her neighbors and

and hold their heads upright,
They may be shy on music, but they

The sour notes pass unnoticed and no
one cracks smile,

The bass drum is the only other thing
that you kin hear.
And there's no use Of any other play

Somehow you never notice that the

SATURDAY. DEC. IS, 1911.
A SANE CHRISTMAS.

In a little more than week the
Christmas trees will be the center OF
attraction. They win adorn many
private homes, public halls, schools
and churches. Around them all
will be the happy, smiling faces of
eager children. IT is the duty Of ev-
eryone who gives Christmas tree to
see that the participants are properly
safeguarded. Christmas tree tragedies
appear worse than others-because of
the gay festivities that surround them
Fargo and North Dakota should take
extra precautions this year to see that
there is no holiday loss Of life through
ares from Christmas trees
Great care should be exercised In
the decoration Of the trees that moth
Ing OF an innamable nature is used.
The substitution of cotton to repre-
sent snow is one Of the most common
and most unwise and dangerous GUS
toms. Cotton decorations and candles,
lighted by children, form about the
most dangerous combination that
could be conceived.
Those impersonating Santa Claus
and using cotton whiskers that are
easily lighted by candles-are taking
dangerous risks.
BY all means have Christmas trees
in abundance-but exercise every pre-
caution to avoid holiday tragedies.
In one way or another, Christmas
celebrations occur in every christian
land. But people in this country, more
than elsewhere. lavishly, gorgeously,
joyously prepare for Christmas. The
population OF America comprises
many naionalities. Each nation in a
manner peculiarly its own, may enjoy
Christmas. Customs and practices inn
ported from Norway. England, Ger
many. Holland. France, Italy and Rus
STA may be modified, mingled ana
blendedgiying additional touches of
color, character and tone to the gener-
az celebration. In America. aside
from its religious Significance, the
Christmas season is dedicated to the
pursuit Of happiness.
AS Christmas approaches II brings
suggestions that give additional zest
and interest TO life. Young and old.
rich and poor, great and small, are
gladdened. Each and all are mindful
OF the fact that Christmas is coming,
No one is so surly nor SO disconsolate
that he cannot appreciate "a merry
Christmas"
At Christmas time especial signif-
icance IL attached to greetings and
gifts. Christmas is associated with
the remambrances Of loved ones and
friends. The occasion calls for cheer
fuiness. Kindness. goodwin and
thoughtful generosity.
At Christmas for a time dull care
should be hidden to take a hasty de-
parture. Let msrcenary thoughts be
replaced by consideration for the well
fare and happiness Of others. Let
rHlirth and gladness -symbolized by
holly and mistIetoe-reign supreme.
Remember that the first Christmas
brought to the world tidings Of great
joy.
Assist the little folks to anticipate
the visit Of Santa Claus.
