A Young Mans Opportunity.

No. young man, there isn't any
chance for you at all. The corpora
tions have swallowed up every op-
portunity, and al that is left for you
is to be a newer OF wood and draw
er of water
Unless you are a young man of
good character.
Unless you are a young man of
intelligence.
Unless you are a young man of
energy.
Unless you are young man will
ing to put in your best lcks all
the time, and not spend most of it
complaining because you work too
hard and get too little pay.
Unless you make up your mind
that in every honorable way YOU
are going to succeed.
Otherwise you have a dark future
for which you need not pay a dol
lar to inform you.
But if you are al of these things
you have a better chance to get
ahead than any young man ever
before had in this country.
Take the case of Charles H. Mark
ham, VINO was last week elected
president of the Illinois Central rail-
way company at a salary of $4,000
year. Less than thirty years ago
he was a day laborer on a western
railroad and got $I25 a day. Did
he spend his spare hours grumbling
over his hard lot? Did he make up
his mind that corporations were
grinding out the life of the people
and try his best to down them?
He did not. He did with his might all
his hands found to do and with such
intelligence that he sds never been
idle or unemployed an hour when
he wanted to work.
Practically every man in great ex-
had the same experience Practically
every such position IN the future
will be filled by men who have
worked up from the bottom. 1t is not
the sons nor favortes of ric: men
who are going to get the big jobs
IN this country, but those who are
able TO fill them after a career which
has demonstrated fitness. Everybody
knows Napoleon's saying that there
was a marshll's baton in the knap-
sack of every private soldier, and the
spirit of it is true of civil or in
dustrial life. There is success for
every young man in this country
who deserves it.-Philadelphia Bulle-

Make Your Words All Count.

Make Your Words All Count.
Strive not about words that worth
less,
But see that your words all count;
And see that your words though
earthly,
Are good like those on the mount.
The gospel is like the wheat harvest
That's ripening so early in field,
Or like unto the tree in the forest,
His fruit a bountiful yield.
When the wheat has been threshed
from the straw stack,
And the straw has been left in the
field;
And the grain has been carried on
horseback
To the place where they grind out
the meal.
And the flour has been sent to the
baker
And the dough has been made into
bread;
It's then we can see the hand Of the
maker,
In keeping the man back from the
dead.

No use to try to make your first

as they love it dearly and will eat

you have chickens. 1t Is the finest
chicken grass we ever grew.
We plant it upon prairie sod by
following every fourth furrow and
thrusting spoke clear through the
sod insert a rootlet, step upon it to
firm the soil and pass on.
Next spring we will try another
method as We purpose to set 80 acres.
Load the freshly plowed Bermuda
sods upon manure spreader, drive
around land in the field distribute
about four tons per acre. Follow at
once. with another team and sulkey
pillow so the furrow slice may not be
too thick. Plow them under. Harrow
to smooth the ground, cultivate with
a harrow to keep weeds down and
soil mellow, and see the Bermuda
grow. We think two men and teams
will set three or four acres per day.
1t is always better to leave the
dirt upon the roots but 1t costs more
to plant them that way.

good Georgia stock with large

the front end OF the beam to the
point of the shovel. This will jumT
over the roots digging the ground
as best it can. 1t can easily be
drawn by one horse and get among
the stumps quite easily. Drop the
rootlets about feet apart and if not
covered with the plow use the hoe.
Step upon every newly covered root
let to firm the soil.
A flock of goats would kill the
sprouts and give many times as
much pasture over the old timber lot.
Should you desire to crop the land
in corn or cotton, when the roots are
gone plow it up, plant the crop, cul-
tivate, as though there was no Ber-
muda there, after the crop is made
the Bermuda will make more feed
and hold the soil from washing bet
ter than crab grass, or cuckle burrs.
This method is being practced very
successfully, a lot of Bermuda grass
in our fields is far better than hav-
ing them wash away. Don't be afraid
OF Bermuda. It don't hurt you and
will help your land and make dol,
lars for you.
Another good way of setting it is
to drop it in every third furrow as
YOU plow, over the ground. Then
come to lbs and we will write an obit-
uary over the entire weed clan as
they will be dead.
Another good way is to plant the
rootlets along the corn rows and Gov
er them as you cultivate If you have
listed corn this will be fine.
Another method, drop rootlets in
cotton middles and cover The next
year it will occupy the land.
Another method leave vacant every
fifth row of cotton. Set Bermuda
there. The next year plant to corn
and cultivate crosswise. This meth
cd will distribute the roots and after
the corn crop is made the Bermuda
will make a good sod.
The best method for us is the one
we used last spring. Secure the root
lets and have them in wagon boxes
in the field. Have them well moist
ened the night before. Keep them
wet and set them only during a wet
spell.
With one team list the ground,
three men will drop the rootlets in
the lister furrow, another team COW
ering with a disc cultivator. II every
body will work but father, the land
will be set to Bermuda for about one
dollar an acre.
A surer way is to cover with hoe
leaving a small portion of the root
let exposed, this will admit air and
sunshine to the rootlets and nearly
every one will grow. Covering with
4 disc cultivator is a much easier and
cheaper way, and for us the better OF
he two.
Last spring We set twelve acres in
his way. 1t was down in the moist
ground and grew despite the dry

have never found the only best one
Very much depends upon the land
and its physical condition.
If it is a rocky hillside the best
way is to scratch around among the
rocks and get enough dirt to cover

don't expect very much grass from
land where vegetation has never

APPOINTING JUDGES.

There are supposed to be three
branches OF government III North Da-
kota-the executive, the legislative and
the judiciary.
Governor Burke is the entire works
as the executive. He is said to large
ly dominate the members Of at least
one branch of the state legislature
and IL the courts don't suit him it's his
own fault.
For a long time three of the five
members Of the state supreme court
were his personal appointees. Four of
the present district judges were named
by him and If the three new judicial
bills all go through he will have the
selection OF men for these positions
making seven of the thirteen district
judges his personal selections.
That's going some-even for. John
Burke.
The more The Forum reviews the
situation-the more it is compelled to
admit the verify of the statement Of
the Grand Forks admirer Of John
Burke-who said he was emperor of
North Dakota.

FRIDAY, FEB. 10, 1911.
FOR GOOD ROADS.

The people of the state are taking
great interest in the bills before the
legislature for good roads. One meas
ure providing for a county supervisor
with deputies in each township, has
passed one branch of the legislature.
This should insure at least county
uniformity in road construction. Such
a plan should be an improvement over
the present catch-as- catch can-or lack
of methods. b.. .,. '...
There is another bill providing for the
payment of all road taxes in cash and
the working of the highways by con-
tract.
This is the only basis on WHICH a
good public highway system will ever
be secured in North Dakota. 1t should
have a provision for the employment of
local farmers for the contract work,
wherever possible Such plan would
give the farmers about the same ad-
vantages they now enjoy in working
out their taxes.
The proposition to pay road taxes in
cash has received strong endorsement
in many sections of the state. The
latest and most representative approx
al was at the recent Tri-State Grain
and Stock Growers convention~in Far
go.
Because Of the adverse crop con-
ditions this year some farmers might
prefer to work out-rather than to pay
their road taxes-but the road taxes
affected, by the new law, will not be
payable till year hence. In the mean
time the farmers are going to raise
big crop and have plenty of money
with which to pay.
No people are so much interested in
good roads as the farmers. Good high
ways increase the value of the lands
through which they run. They are a
matter of economy for the farmers in
getting their products to market--as
they make it possible to haul larger
loads and to travel faster-without so
much wear and tear on the teams.
Good roads make 1t easier for the
farmers to get their mail, to attend
Sunday school and church, to visit their
neighbors. They add to the social and
religious development of the commun-
ity.
The enactment of a good road law
would be one of the best things the
present Legislature could do.

A SANE FOURTH.

Physicians realize more fully than
any other class of men the horrors of
the old-fashioned Fourth of July-with
its trail of death and injuries.
Knowing as they do the wide havoc
wrought by explosives used in indie
pendence day celebrations, the medical
men speak with authority on the sub
ject. 1t is especially fitting that they
take the lead in the movement to
abolish the use of explosives in COM
memoration of the birth of the repub-
lie.
In a recent bulletin issued by the
American Medical association the hor-
rors of tetanus-following injuries from
explosives-are pointed out. Physi-
clans are urged to join in the move
ment to abolish the barbaric celebra-
tions which invariably bring so many
injuries of fatal character. 81
Cleveland, o., had 1O5 injuries and
twelve deaths on July 4, 1908 An or
dinance prohibiting the use of explo-
sives reduced the casualties to four in
1903 and one in 1910, with no deaths.
Baltimore has had a similar expert
ence-and for two years Washington
has not had a single injury. New York
reduced the injuries in two years by a
prohibitive ordinance
Now is the time for cities and towns
to head off DANGEROUS explosives. Or
dinances should be passed now, before
dealers lay in a supply of fireworks,
and are in position to complain that an
injustice is being done them.
In concluding it's bulletin the Amer
lean Medical association says there is
only one way to protect the youth of
America-and that is by absolute pro-
hibition of all sorts of sounds produced
by explosives on Fourth of July In
the opinion of the association halfway
measures which permit torpedoes and
small firecrackers are wholly inef-
fective--as they leave an opening for
the more dangerous noises and invite
violations of the ordinances.
The bulletin says:
Only when the sound Of any explo-
sive means violation of the law can
the more dangerous explosives be pre-
vented; Furthermore, hundreds of ac-
cidents. many fatal. are annually
caused by the so-called harmless fire.

the joys of noise and devastation which
gunpowler can produce, they win seek
and discover ways Of getting more; but
II for a few years this sort of cele-
bration can be prevented, the demand
