LAID TO REST
FUNERAL or PIONEER NEWsPA.
PER MAN HELD WITH I'M
PREsslvE CEREMONIES.

Bismarck, N. d, Feb. 14.-The fu-
neral Of the late M. H. Jewell. for
thirty years editor of The Bismarck
Tribune, was held here yesterday.
There were short services at the house
for the family and intimate friends,
and afterwards the body was taken to
the Presbyterian church, where the
knights Templars services were read.
There was the most profuse display
OF flowers ever seen at a funeral in
the western part of the state. The
Bismarck branch OF the International
Typographical union attended the
services in a body, as did the Elks
and several other orders of which de-
ceased was a member. All of the
business places in the city were closed
during the hour OF the funeral, and
the flags on public and private build
ings have been at half-mast since
Saturday morning. The senate and
the house OF the legislature which is
in session took recess during the
hours of the services and nearly
every one in town turned out to pay
their last respects to the memory of
the departed pioneer.

JOE PELTIER MAY
ESCAPE The MOOSE

Bottineau, N. D., Feb. 14.-Joe Pei
tier, a Turtle mountain halfbreed, who
missed hanging for murder by a mar
brought back from the penitentiary at
Bismarck yesterday and his new trial
will begin this week.
Peltier was convicted OF the murder
of Frank Sidell postmaster at Cor
della, and his 16-year- niece and
sentenced to be hanged. Just three
hours before the time set for his legal
execution stay OF proceedings was
granted and a new trial ordered. 1t
is not expected any new evidence will
be offered, so he will, in all probability
be again convicted and sentenced to
a term of years or life imprisonment.
The crime of which he was convicted
was cruel one and as accessories to
the act his younger brother and an
Indian companion, called Rising Sun,
were also convicted. These three went
to the little store operated by Sidell.
and finding him alone, made a few
purchases and then when the old man
almost instantly.
They looted the store and then set
fire to it. Neighbors, attracted by the
flames, rushed to the scene and found
the charred body of the old man and
in another room his niece. Circum-
stantial evidence led to the arrest of
the Peltiers and the Indian and there
was little trouble in weaving around
them a net of evidence which resulted
in their conviction.

Col. r. A. Wilkinson.

NOts Ne ~ NNiiN"SSHs
II you are going into dairying start
with native cows, select those that
suit YOU the best and then use a pure
bred sire on them, thus breeding up,
and continue to get sires from the
same breed This was the burden of
the address by Col. r. A. Wilkinson.
This will be the cheapest way and
then one gets the experience as one
breeds up the cattle and for practical
purposes the third cross Is as good
as the pure bred. For breeding they
will not be as good, not having the
prepotency. He gave the following
figures to show what can be done
with the native cows when they are
given the care and feed that they
should have. These cows had had
poor care till in 1908 when he bought
them and began to feed them and care
for them The first four months that
one Of these cows was in milk in
1908 she gave 1881 pounds OF milk,
for the corresponding months in 1909
she gave 1881 pounds and for the
same months in 1910 the amount was
4,267 showing how this COW that was
years old at the start was respond
ing to the good care and feed. He
laid special stress on weighing the
milk at each milking and keeping an
account OF IL so that one can learn
which the good cows are and so get
rid of the poor ones that likely do
not pay for their feed. For feed
| ing them ration consisting of ten
to twelve pounds of clover hay, eight
| to ten pounds OF ground corn and what
corn stalks they will eat does first
rate. A couple of pounds Of bran will
| improve 1t.
Prof Thomas Shaw predicted that
/ the Red river valley will be one Of the
greatest clover seed growing sections
| in the world It's soil and climate are
well adapted to the growth of this
plant. He said that at Casselton he
had seen 100-acre field that went four
and one-half bushels to the acre on the
average. This pays better than crop
of grain. At the same time 1t was
enriching the soil, killing weeds, and
| adding humus. Glover is also wall
liable hay being much richer In food
than timothy which in its growth adds
nothing to the soil. One OF the
/ things that must be provided for the
clover plant, Is the germs that lie on
its roots If they are not already in
the SOIL Adding manure is a great
help. And then they can be introduced
by taking soil from a field that II
growing clover successfully and SOW
ing on at the rate Of 200 pounds per
acre. For ordinary well drained land
he recommended the common medi-
urn red clover For low land that was
not well drained the alsike will do the
best A crop Of clover will add as
| much fertility as several crops OF
grain viii take out.

FARM INSTITUTE
AT WAHPETON
BIG GATHERING AND MANY I'M.
TANT AGRICULTURAL
SUBJECTS DISCUSSED

wahpeton, N. d., Feb. 1.-THE
Farmers Institute held at Wahpeton
on Monday brought out one of the
largest audiences that has been as
sembled in Wahpeton for some time.
The students from the Science school
and the Indian school helped swell the
numbers. The Science school band
played at both the forenoon and after
noon sessions. Some selections were
also given on the victrola.
The first speaker ON the programme
was Prof. e. B. Waldron Of the Agri-
cultural college. He spoke on the pos
sibilities OF fruit growing. He said
that we could grow as good apples
here as they can in the west and that
If we would give orchards the same
care that as much money could be
made here as any place in fruit grow
ing. Such varieties as the Hibernal,
northwestern greening, Pattons green.
ing and wealthy do we'll here and
other varieties can also be grown, and
new varieties are being developed
There are 200 varieties of plums that
are hardy here so that there are a.
great many fruits that will grow here
and the flavor is fine and they are very
productive. He stated that the barrel
of Northwestern greetings that took
the first prize at the Spokane Apple
show. where the whole country was
competing was won by barrel of APP
pies from Minnesota.

Prof. w. C. Palmer.

Prof. w. c. Palmer in discussing
weeds very emphatically stated thai
to grow grain and weeds on the same
land at the same time was a very
wasteful way The weeds taking more
than their share of the plant food and
moisture and that the crop is cut down
in proportion to the number of weeds
present. To get rid of weeds it is
necessary to study their needs and
then not to provide them. In growing
grain, such weeds. as the kinghead,
wild oats, mustard and French weed
ripen before the grain does and then
in blowing the seed are buried ready
to grow the next year. To get rid Of
these weeds they must be kept from
going to seed. Growing a crop of corn
is a good way to eradicate weeds. The
bare fallow is good but no better than
corn. The growing of clover, alfalfa
end timothy are also good ways to
kill weeds as they cannot mature seeds
in the hay crops The growing Of
rye is another good crop for killing
them as is also millet when cut for

Shaw Talks on Corn.

In his ADDRESS on Corn, Professor
Shaw, the great agricultural expert of
the northwest, classified the reasons
for which 1t would be grown, namely:
% For putting the land in shape to
grow bigger crop Of wheat and other
grains, which 1t does as the cultivation
given IL cleans the land and saves
moisture. (2) To produce pasture
for hogs and sheep, that is to grow a
small variety and let the hogs do the
husking, or to let the sheep do it.
CD To produce fodder. Corn cannot
be grown for the grain to the same
advantage here as in the corn belt,
but for fodder it can be grown to evel
better advantage, and the fodder will
be needed. Plant in hills and five to
six kernels per HILL 1t is easier to
keep clean in hills than in drills and
cleaning the land is one of the inn
portant things to keep in mind. ca
To clean the land of weeds, this can
be done with corn as we'll as with the
bare fallow and at the same time get
a crop and put the land in better shape
for crop than the bare fallow and
especially If the year be a dry one.
1t is also a good crop to prepare the
land for a crop of winter wheat.
