with freezing and thuwing have be
come ciogged up from silt wash ns
down causing the water to be forced
upward before emptying from the
drain thus backing mp water. making
the drain netficient.
We find this trouble mostly where
short drains exist or those with tile
grade, lying dormant much OF the
time. We find il time well spent 10

season.
Then back in the fields we can in
the sprnS time spend Some time
proftahly taking note of the opera
ton Of our drains. whether they are
collecting Il discharging the watel
from the soil in a proper manner
one instance we found where the
drain ceased to operate sixty rods back
into the field from the outlet. We dug
down and there lay two large musk
rats completely %cloggiug the dra ms

where a crawfish crawling up q drain

LOOK TO YOUR TILE DRAINS.

TIC get the best service from u
tile drains we must look to their &C
tivity several times each year, and
especially so during the winter and
spring season.
As much as one half the tile drains
upon our farms right now are not CIV
ing good service for varied reasons
and are surely not profitable to the
owner in such condition.
On our farm our tile drains empty
chiefly into large bitches and creeks
and are quite cas- ~ kept from clog
g:ng. yet with 8 little careleSSness in
neglecting some OF them they may
quickly become clogged and useless.
Along these open bitches and creeks
we find various methods Of Cloggins
up our tile drain outlets employed,
which we must look int carefully,
during the sprng season.
Some thoughtless hunter in quest
of rabbit plugged a chunk of wood
into the dram in order to keep his
game from entering and left the out
let. logged. Then we find that musk
rats working along the Open bitches
have dragged ears Of maize, grass n
stalks INTO some OF the outlets for
nesting purposes.
With US We carry an iron rod with
hook shaped upon one end and drag
this foreign material from the tiles.
Freshets often wash away some OF he
tiles. and often undermine the bank
causing heavy sods to drop down

Roots serve two purposes for the
plant. They not only drink UP dis
solved foods, but also serve TO hold
the plant in a fixed position.
The older and larger the plant
grows the more roots il needs to Sc
curely hold it in place and to fully
satisfy it's drinking needs.
All Of the roots of a plant help
to hold it in place, but the youngest
and finest roots do the drinking.
These young. fine roots are called
feeding roots. They grow out In all
directions in the moist soil in search
Of food for the plant.
At the end of each tiny feeding root
is q little cap resembi ng the finger
OF a glove. The function OF this little
root cap is to protect the tender root
let as it pushes It's way through hard
bits Of soil.
Although young and apparently
tender. these feelings roots are very
strong in a way.
Through the WE OF expansive
growth, they are able TO push slowly
trough very nard sol. and even
penetrate some rocks, bursting them
into pieces.
With large plants, such as trees.
they penetrate very deep down Into
the ground where the soil IS always
moist but almost o. hard as rock.-H,

crops occupy the soil well n may
be cut sever al times a year. thus pre-
venting seeding to a great extent
The growing OF soiling crops, both
because of the fact that they may be
cut at almost any time and because
Of their smothering qualities.

The hog louise is a common cause OF
thriftlessness in young pigs and wheli
numerous tends to retard Their growth.
1t is advisable and most profitable to
keep swine free from lice at all ages
and stages of their existence and de-
velOpment so far as possible. To this
end their houses. pens ard sleeping
places should FREQ ntly be cleaned
and disinfected, the woodwork white
wshed, the bedding material kept
fresh, clean and cry and the yards
free from accommodations Of litter and
filth.

IT is impossible to keep hogs free
from lice without maintaining SAM
tary conditions in their quarters and
in attempting to rid them OF these
pests the treatment must include not
only the hogs, but practically every
thing with which they come in con-
tact daily.
To a sinfect recently purchased hogs.

or vernlin into the herd. wash them
in a warm 2 per cent solution Of coal
tar dip and repeat the treatment in
10 days or two weeks; Or apply the
solution freely with q spray pump and
rub it in with a brush. The addition
of flowers Of sulphur at the rate of
16 IL pounds to Zach 100 gallons of
dip mixture renders the solution more
effective and such a combination solu-
ton should be freely used for all forms
OF mango or chronic disease OF the
skin in hogs.
To destroy lice, a mixture OF equal
parts Of kerosene and machine oil, or
one part Of t~urpentine and two parts
Of machine oil, should be applied to
every part OF the hog by means OF a
rag or SWab OF cotton waste; or II
may be applied along the back, from
ears to tail, with q ommon mach ne
oil can and allowed to ooZe down the
sides Of the hog. Repeat the appn-
cation in 10 days. AS q remedy for
lice on black hogs crude petroleum
Oil is successfully used. It is m xed

brush. A repetition Of the applica-
ton, in 10 TO IA days, eradicates lice

OFFICERS SCHOOL IS
Proving SUCCESSFUL
NATIONAL GUARD OFFICERS REC EWING VAL
LIABLE INFORMATION FROM REGULAR ARMY INSTRUCTORS
SCHOOL or INSTRUCTION PROVING A DECIDED SUCCESS
SCHOOL ENDS SUNDAY EvENINc-oFFIcERs CARED FOR

The school of instruction which is
being held at Fort Lincoln for the Of
f1cers of the North Dakota National
Guard is proving decided success and
the militia officers who have reported
for instruction are cleaning a great
deal of valuable information which
will be of service to them in the per.
Torrance of their duties at their home
stations and at camp
Major Hasbrouck, 14th U. S. Inf.
who was detailed by the war depart
ment to act as instructor, and his as.
sistants, Lieut. Titus. 14th U. S. Inf.
and Lieut.. Kobes. 18th U. S. Inf. are
all doing very efficient work which is
greatly appreciated by the officers of
the national guard.
The North Dakota troops had an
enviable record in the Philippines DUR
ing the insurrection and saw some
hard service. The service medals
which have been issued and which are
little strip Of ribbon worn on the
uniform signifies has been issued to
the wearer, are by far the most potent
open sesame for introducing the
guardsmen to the regulars and work
wonders in promoting the bon cam
aradie and friendly feeling between
the officers of the two branches Of the
service.
The work of the model company,
Company A.. 18th U. S. 1nf.. under the
command of Lieut.. G. A. Herbst, has
aroused great deal of favorable COM
ment from the guard officers. In fact
all of the regular army officers are
doing all in their power to make the
three days stay of the militia officers
as helpful and instructive as possible.
The work of the school of instruction
will be completed Sunday evening.

BRING The VISITORS WEST,

a great deal OF controversy over the
location of the North Dakota exhibit

matter Just where the show will be
held. The proposition to hold it in
the Red River valley however is one
that no one in the central or western
portion of the state will support. II

vast extent of its prairies, its wealth
of soil and its varied resources, let
them come into the state, let them

they see will. be, quite as interesting

ton to hold this exhibit within the
state should be the provision that the
visitors get as far across the state as

about as near to an ideal location for
this exposition as could be desired,

to look after has decided not to be a
candidate for the exhibition on the
