abandoning him. He dared not call her

the admiral? There was one thing he
knew absolutely nothing about, M
this was the duties of a private secre-

The keen, blue sailors eyes seemed TO

thought the best thing he could do was
to sit down at once, which he did. The
ticket agent had said that the admiral
was of a quiet pattern. but this start
wasn't much like it. The fire in the
blue eyes suddenly gave way to a
twinkle and the old man laughed.

Many another woman would have

the WRITEuP MAN HILL
IS AMONG The MISSING

Ed. Hill, svmetimes signing himself
~. Edmund Hill" is among the miss
ing. and he is deeply mourned by the
Tribune force, as when he disappeared
he had about a hundred dollars of
Tribune money with him. He was last
seen at Glendive but it was not thought
he was doing any work there. The last
place he worked was Wibaux. He
secured large list of new subscribers
there and failed to remit. Nothing was
thought of it for few days as he has
often had as large amounts if not larger
and has always settled. Needless to
say Hill is no longer connected with the
Tribune. To those who knew the man
it is hard to believe that he has
decamped with the money as he had
dood place and one with which he was
apparently satisfied. He was. while
with the Tribune, a hard worker and
faithful empl0yee-up to the last ex-
ploit.
His former home is at Garden City.
Kan., where it is understood he has
mother. brother and sister living.-Bis-
marck Tribune.
Ed. Hill is the man who wrote up
Richardton and Dickinson for the
Tribune and he was at Taylor also.

vEleEl HAS GOVT WORK
OUTFIT AND START SEPT. Is

W. z. Veigel. city engineer, received
his appointment early in the week fol
government surveying. and, by wire
from Washington, has been directed to
outfit and proceed to the Ft. Berthold
Indian reservation as soon AS possible
to complete the survey there. There are
ten or twelve townships to survey. all
on the reservation and west of the
Missouri river.
It will require twelve to fourteen men
and four teams for this work, and Mr..
Veisel has promised the department at
Washington that he will be ready to
start on September IS. He will 70 out
via Oakdale and the Wilcox ranch.
Under the new arrangement. Mr..
Veieel is commissioned to do govern
ment surveying and is paid by the
month. In the winter he will have
opportunities Of eoine south, but he
will not necessarily have to 60 if busi-
ness at home is such that he cannot very
well get away.
The work which Mr.. Veieel had out
north last year was the last of the
government contract surveying in the
United States. 1t is likely that the
present job will last until into Decem-
ber. or as late as the weather is suit
able for being out and possibly it cannot
be completed this season.

what bearing this will have on the
location of dispatchers' Offices is not
now known. Some think that tele-
phone messages will not carry, in all
kinds of weather, 200 miles and that an
office will necessarily be maintained in
Dickinson the same as during the past
year.
The fact that business is light and
that the railroads are consolidating and

has made many people fear that a

Medora dispatch which makes it look
very much as though some one was
specially interested in getting the
party out Of iail. The dispatch says !:
The board OF county commissioners of
Billings county has offered a reward of
$500 for the eeturn of Albert Meduna
to the sheri6 of the county. Mr..
MEDINA turned states witness in
horse stealing eaae and was being held
as witness. It was very necessary
that he be gotten aAft of the country.
It must have cost soxethine to have
gotten him away. Someone may be
foolish enough to return him. then it
will cost more to. keep him away.
Sometimes these efforts cost much
money, but they must be made. This
reward is something that. pehaps.

PROPER CROP ROTATION
GIVES YIELDS OF Is Blu.
The 4Yea Crop Rotation Plots Dickinson Experiment Station
25S Bushels Acre This Year Average Summer Fa
low Plots AL Bu These Yields Can Be Had Any Farm
in the Driest Years if Proper Methods Are Used.

The reports from the 1911 threshine
machines are not such as 10 make the
average farmer jubilant. Large yields
were not expected. Many farmers
thought they had fair yields. but some
of the estimated yields have had to be
cut down 50 per cent or even more.
At the Dickinson experiment station,
we were figuring on some of our pieces
going from 10 to IL bushels to the acre
but find instead of that, yields nearer 5
or s. Some of the old timers, who have
recently started in farming, have told
us that they guessed this was their last
wear of farming. The yields were not
encouraging enough for them.
II is unfortunate that we have such
years as this, but they seem to occur
nearly everywhere. Crops fail from some
cause or another. When it is not drouth,
it is something else equally as bad.
However, if the dry weather is not too
severe it is possible to avoid some Of
the ill effects of drouth. And to learn
how to do this was one Of the reasons
for establishing the experiment station
at Dickinson. This is really the first
year where the conditions have been
good for determining whether some OS
our dry farming theories would worn
out in q really dry year. We are glad
to report that. Mt least. some of then
have worked out to our great satisfact-
ion. and it may be a good idea to give
some of our results.
The yields of wheat after corn were
generally decidedly disappointing. w
had hoped that even in dry year tina
wheat after we'll cultivated corn woult
show up pretty well. bat this has not
been the case in 1911. The average
yield of wheat after corn has been
around bushels per acre.
Our land that was farmed strictl!
according to dry farming methods, tell.
a different story. AS many readers
The Dickinson press., 1911-09-09

know, our best looking wheat was grown
on cleanly cultivated summer fallow.
During all of 1910 the land was kept
cultivated after rains. providing soil
mulch which kept in the moisture.
Wheat on such land did we'll in 1911.
We have one 4-year rotation. growing
three crops in 4 years. The rotation is
as follows: corn. oats. summer fallow,
wheat Wheat on this rotation yielded
25.8 bushels per acre. The average
wheat yields on our summer fallow
plots averaged 22.1 bushels per acre.
This is certainly very good considering
the season. Please do not forget that
these yields were secured. not because
they were grown al the experiment
station, but because certain methods
were followed. Any farmer that fol-
lowed the methods that we followed
would secure as good yields.
1t is to be hoped that in the future
farmers will pay more attention to
moisture conservation than they have
in the past, and as soon as they do this
they may figure on securing large,
yields. 1t would not be wise to lay
down any hard or fast rules as to the
methods that should be followed. But
certain principles must be well con.
sidered, if farming is to be made sue.
cess in this district.
1 It would seem that it might be {
good idea for the farmer to insure Ger
tain portion of his crop. Upon cleanl!
cultivated summer fallow. barring an!
unforeseen accidents. he may rely on get
ting good yield. In certain year
yields may not be enough better to max
the system pay but in such a year a
1911, 20 or 30 acres of wheat yieldin,
rs bushels per acre, would be>a Godsen'
to many farmers.
