ENGINES TO BURN OIL
Great Northern Makes Change on lis

One hundred and fifteen locomotives

Importance to lumbermen of Minneano-
lis, to whom the disastrous western
forest fires of last year brought much
concern and serious losses. The federal
government has been working with the
railroads on the theory that oil-burning
locomotives, operated through the
heavy forested regions Of the western
states would reduce the fire risk very
materially President Louis w. Hill,
in recent western trips, studied the sub
ject closely. Although forest fires or
iginate from many causes, it was the
opinion Of the government experts that

roads used no coal burners through the
forests.
AS result of careful consideration
of the matter, the Great Northern is
now at wark on a storage plant at
Everett, WASH, which will take cars OF
100000 gallons of crude oil, which
will be brought up in ships from Cali.
fornia.
President Hill also studied the matter
Of economy and has found that it will
be an advantage from that standpoint
to use fuel oil. The plan will mean the
replacing Of the CRATES Of the locomo
tives and many other changes.
Minneapolis lumbermen were affected
last year by the disastrous forest fires
in Washington, which caused loss Of
life, and which the government foressr,
experts estimated, destroyed 100000,

MAKE N. D. FARMS YIELD MORE
North Dakota Grain Growers eLarn
Lessons From Recent Poor Crop
Interested in Newer Way.

The Minneapolis Journal has the fol-
lowing on the farming conditions in
North Dakota:
North Dakota will be farmed this
year as it never was farmed before,
with the old and wasteful methods dis
carded. A. d. Gaines, who has been
raising crops in that state for the past
twentyeight years, and is now in Min
neapolis, believes that benefits too
great for calculation are going to fol
low the opening Of an era Of better
work.
Practically eevry farmer in North
Dakota, by personal contact with some
teaching influence OF by indirection
has had tn eidea brought to him and
the hammered upon with ,repetiti
and reiteration, that the crop losses Of
last year that cut down the grain
yield of the state so materially, were
due not to bad weather alone, but Largo
ly to poor tillage.
Farmers who had to scale down ex
penditures and postpone improvement
work because their crop promise raj
down the scale as the season drew to ;
close, have heard Of other farmers VIII
close, have heard of other farmers VIII,
high prices that ruled. They have ask
ed the agricultural schools, the farm
ers institutes, and of themselves, hov
it was that eevn on farms where tn
general outturn was poor, patches o
land yielded beautifully.
They have been told that kindnes
to the land brings kindness from til
land, that seed selection, crop rotatio
and other things arc important, bu
that tillage is the golden word. Thi

on the farm. This is where the man
from the eyes up comes in, and remem-
Der that it is this kind of work that
pays.
The farmer should have library
containing the latest agricultural books,
the experiment station bulletins and
the agricultural papers. This will
bring into his home the best that is
known on the different phases of farm
ing. One hundred dollars or $25 would
make pretty good start. And if use
was made of it, its teachings applied
to the different farm operations, the
returns would be several times 800
greater each year than under the hit
and miss plan. What would be even
more of remuneration would be the
interest and satisfaction that comes
from work well done, from being mas
ter of conditions, instead of slaves to
them. We like to do what we can do
we'll. The farmer cannot afford to take
chances any more than the doctor or
lawyer. Tt will be his own fault if he
does, as the information is to be had if
will simply work his brains. -

year they are out for ti]lage and are
going to become real tillers of the soil
in all that the word means.
II neevr saw anything like the in
terest in good farming that is being
shown this spring in oNrth Dakota,''
Mr.. Gaines said, and he added that in
judgment it is the biggest and most
important thing that has developed in
the northwest since the land was first
broken by the pillow. For ten years Mr..
Gaines was identified with teaching
work in Minnesota and was in y
state high school at Alexandria in adj
dition to having taught in the state ag-
ricultural college at St. Anthony park.
81 attended the meetings of farmers
at Dickinson, where dry farming was
the feature, and besides assisting in
organizing the New Salem and Wash
burn farmer clubs. I was present at
many other meetings of armers during
the winter in North Dakota. Every
where the good farming idea was talk
ed and everywhere the farmer seemed
to be awakening to the fact that, to a
large extent, the question of good or
bad crops is in his own hands.
"We need not expect that the full
benefits of this will not be Seen this sea-
son. continued Mr. Gaines. cit takes
two or three years for the dry. farm
ing to show what it can do. Part of
the plan is the CARRYING over from one
year to another of the moisture in the
ground, the elimination of weeds which
take up much Of the moisture for their
growth, and other things that make up
the good farming. One season after
the farmers take tn s up in numbers
will bring results that will be impor-
| tant, but two or three seasons of such
work, continued, will do wonders. That
is why say that the taking up this
year by the North Dako, farmers OF
the better tillage plan, is one o fthe
most important things, agriculturallv
that eevr happened il the northwest.
The farmers of North Dakota, Mr.
Gaines said, are opposed to reciprocity
and have so declared at meetings held
throughout the state.

wHAr ARE YouR BRAINS FOR?
Prof. w. G. Palmer Of the A. G. Dis
cusses Brains and The Use in the
World Of Agriculture.

World Of Agriculture.
"What are yaur brains for?'' says
Prof. w. G. Palmer, Of the A. G. in a
recent bulletin. He then says:
cit has been said that a man from
his eyes down is worth $3.50 day,
while from his eyes up he is worth
up to hundreds Of dollars day. The
reason that SO many people are not
worth more is that they do not use their
brains, being content to follow methods
and practices that have been handed
down, that do not, perhaps, meet pres.
ent conditions at any rate cannot meet
them as we'll as what has been worked
out lately. 1t is necessary to find out
the best that is known on any subject
that one has hand; then with that as
starting point, work out new methods
and practices. Often times one finds
a farmer who does not have good IL
brary of agricultural books and does
not eevn take agricultural papers, and
no one had more time to read and
study
eco into the Doctors or lawyer
ing from $500 to $4,000 OF more, and
several medical or law journals. When
difficult case comes up they ransack
their libraries, going through the books
that treat Of the particular, subject n
hand and the journals. Then they will
call in fellow doctors or lawyers. They
do not propose to take any chances that
it, lies within their poder to avoid.
Does the farmer turn to his library, to
the agricultural papers and to the ex.
Unemployment station bulletins when
he has problems A good many do,
:, but why not more Of them? When a
crop is to be grown, the best that :,
' known on the growing Of that CROP
, should be brought into play in prepar
ing the soil, in selecting the seed, in
caring for the crop. When stock is tc
s be raised the best knowledge available
3 should be used in selecting the stock
u in breeding them, in feeding them, il
t caring for them and in marketing them
8 And so on with the different operation.
