IMPROVED FARMING.


North Dakota seems TO be on In,
eve OF a better farming era. ARitas
ton during the past score or more
years by the state increasing ii
scope annually--has done much tc
arouse sentiment favorable to inn
proved methods. The farmers insti
tutes, the sub-stations and the dem
onstration farms--with the bulletins
and advice from the agricultural col
lege, have given the farmers Of the
state practical lessons.
At what seems to be the proper
psychological moment-an organiza-
ton known as the North Dakota one
Hundred Dollar an Acre association
has been formed. The fact that s1oo
per acre figures IN the title OF the Or
ganisation does not mean that the
plan is q promotion scheme Of a lot
OF spectators. 1t is merely a figure
fixed so that popular idea might be
had Of the real value Of the fertile
North Dakota soil.
The object of this organization
instead Of selling lands to increase
the profits of the farm--the value OF
the land-the yields per acre-to
such point that the owner win re-
fuse to sell at the prices now prevail
ing.
The cardinal idea of the movement
the keynote OF the Efforts to in
crease the value OF North Dakota
lands through crop rotation and
through diversification.
There are many details to be work
ed out These include the instruction
OF the farmers as to the proper meth
ods OF rotating the crops. the best
crops to be planted to increase the
fertility Of the soiI--and at the same
time to bring returns to the farmer
while he is adding to the value OF the
land.
Live stock will be an important fea-
ture. So will dairying. No farmer.
unprepared, is TO be asked to rush into
the dairy business. No man who has
q hobby for hogs is going to be adj
yised to invest heavily in horse rails
Ing. Each man VIII be advised as 20
beet methods to reach certain ends
or attain certain objects he may have |
in view.
There is not a farmer in the state
who hasn't some hobby-some pet
plan he would like to carry out-if he
only knew the means TO that end
Above aIl-the organization IL not
TO force itself onto farmers Of the
state. An honest effort will be made
to explain the objects OF the organ
ization--tc interest the most enter
prising and energetic farmers in the
movement. Those who show a dis
position to make progress win be rem
dered every assistance possible. Those
who decline to cooperate will not be
annoyed.
The directors have secured Profess
scr Cooper for many years with the
Minnesota Agricultural college. He is
former North Dakota boy who has
made a national reputation for him
self along agricultural lines. He has
the training. the ability, the initiative
and the enterprise necessary for the
position. He is now en- route to
washington FOR conference with the
department Of agriculture to secure
certain men he has in mind to assist
him in the work.
He win have the heartiest cooper
ation Of the North Dakota A. G. and
@ Superintendent Hoverstad of the
Farmers institute. 1t is a rare chance
zer the North Dakota farmers to get
something Overwhelmingly by sig
nifyinE willingness to accept 1t.

OBJECT TO The
BRIDGE SITE
Park Commission Believe New
Structure Will Damage
City Park
INTERESTS TO CONFER
AGAIN ON SUBJECT

County Engineer James Wilson,
Levy Courtmen H. W. Perkins. S. r.
Dennison and Irenee dupont, Col. Ed
gar L. Haynes, Samuel H. Baynard,
members of the Park Commission;
George W. Sparks, c. A. Rudolph,
Matthew d. Murphy, directors of the
Street and Sewer Department, and
William W. Lobdell held a conference
at the proposed sites for the new
bridge to be constructed across the
Christiana river near the present
structure, at Third street, yesterday
afternoon. Plans of the new struc-
ture were displayed and it developed
that opposition would be made by the
Park Commission to the placing Of
the approaches on the park lands ex-
tending from Church street TO Bridge
street.
The plans submitted yesterday
show the approaches placed on park
lands about half way up the square,
and while there would be a retain
ing wall built, extending from the
ground up, the park would not be
eliminated entirely. 1t was the opin-
ion of the members Of the Park Board
that the approaches should be placed
on the sidewalk of this land and ex-
tend them to the sidewalk alongside
the Diamond State Steel plant. This
would force the driveway to make
two detours, one at Third and Church
and one at Fourth street The mem
D - I
prove of this as they desire a direct
route from the bridge TO Fourth
street.
Following the conference it was
understood that another conference
would be held between the Street and
Sewer Department directors and the
Park Commission, when the subject
will be further considered. The
members of Levy Court do not favor
the idea suggested by the Park Board
members, as they want the new bridge
to connect with Fourth street directly.
Mr.. Baynard, in speaking of the
proposed route to the members of the
party, said the playground adjoining
the bridge site could not be dupli-
Gated for from $1,000 70 $Tb 900, and
it is the only park south of Sixti

the Christiana river. He said tha
while the Park Commission did no
care to be considered obstructionists
he did consider the bridge plan pro
posed as good as if the sidewalk o
the park was utilized, and the troll
ley tracks as well as the approaches
extend to Church street, and then Il
Fourth street.
It was said by County Engineer
Wilson, that the Pennsylvania Rail
road, owners of the park, we're no
opposed to the approaches of the new
! bridge commencing on the land al
! long as their wharf was not interfere'
: with. The company at present has
+ spur of track to the north side o
I Fourth street through the land, ant
in time they might desire to extent
the spur TO the wharf.
