mess men to prepare a charter under
the commission form The draft was
presented to the city council three
months afterward, but the ten repre-
sentatives paid little or no attention
to It.
A petition, signed BIZ more than 30
per cent of the voters, was then sub
'mitted to the council. This urged the
appointment of fifteen freeholders to
formulate charter The council
granted the request after some delay
and eight business men, five represent

we're selected. This committee en-
bodied in its charter some of the best
features of 100 plans in operation in
the United States and submitted its
work to the people, who adopted it by
an overwhelming vote at an election
on December 81, 1910.
Proceedings for injunction were in
stituted in the Spokane county super
ior court afterward. The people were
sustained, but that did not clear the
field. An appeal was taken to the su-
preme court of Washington, the six
judges of which handed down a joint
opinion, upholding the legality of the
charter election.

DEBATE Won BY

SOUTH DAKOTA TEAM DEFEAT

TO ONE DECISION.

Grand Forks. n. d.. April 20.-In
one of the finest displays of forensic
and argumentative ability ever heard
in the state, the University Of North
Dakota debating team last evening
won the annual intercollegiate debate
from the University Of South Dakota
by a two to one decision. This makes
the second intercollegiate debate that
North Dakota has won this year, the
University of Manitoba having been
defeated by a North Dakota team sew
eral months ago,
George Shafer, Lester Smith and
liver Acker represented North Dakota
while Messrs. Frank j. Bentlin. Jens
HjeImsted and w. II. Heis upheld the
negative side of the question, which is
stated as follows:
Resolved, That the Canadian COM
bines act (of May 4, 1870 offers an
adequate remedy for evils of COM
bines, mergers, trusts and monopo-
lies in the United States"
A. A. Miller OF Crookston, Judge

What's Said

C. G. McGregor: Shiloh lodge will
hold meeting Friday evening at 1880
p. m. Work in the entered apprentice
degree. All visitors welcome.
Eliza Letford, Recorder: There will
be a regular meeting Of the Royal
Neighbors at 8 o'clock this evening
in the A. o. u. w. hall. Every mem
Der is requested to be present as mat
ters Of especial importance will come
before the meeting.
J. M. johnson, Captain: Canton No.
2, L. o. o. F., will meet tonight in Union
hall at o'clock. / ask all that are
members to be on hand as some spec
ial business will come before the order.
This meeting is also to prepare for the
anniversary on April 26.
Pedestrian: From the manner m
which the motor car owners
drive their cars in Fargo, 1t seems to
me that there should be a city ordi-
nance passed requiring all automobile
drivers to slow down their machines
as they approach street car that is
at a stand still. People alighting
from the cars narrowly miss being in-
jured and some day there will prob
ably be fatal accident resulting from
this.

sticky soil. Third, its weak point is
its bearing,
In buying a single disc pay particu-
lar attention to the disc bearings. ex-
anime them as to their dust-proof
qualities and convenience OF lubrica-
tion, Further, select a drill with the
heel or auxiliary shoe of such form
that it will not clog. Don't buy sim
gle-disc drill that allows the seed to
come in direct contact with the discs,
as they will scatter the seed An en-
closed boot should be provided to lead
the seed into the bottom of the furrow
before the earth is permitted to fall
back into the furrow. In spite of some
Of the objections raised against the
single-disc 1t will meet more of the
many and varying soil conditions to
be encountered than any other form of
furrow opener, and for this reason has
become very popular
The double-disc drill is lighter i'm
draft than either the shoe or single
disc and will consequently not do as
good work on hard, thrashy ground,
although it Is by far the best flrrow
opener for corn stubble ground. When
used on soil well pulverized and in
good filth it is undoubtedly the best
furrow opener on the market. The
doubIe-disc sows the seed in a wider
furrow than the other types; in fact,
it produces a double furrow with a
single ridge between them so that the
grain is sown in two rows instead of
one This is claimed to be a great
advantage by many who maintain that
1t gives the plants more root room.
The double-disc has better bearings
than the single disc and with equal
care and wear should last longer. In
general, a double disc will do good
work in soil on which shoe drill has
been successful, but it has not the
wide range of adaptability possessed
by the singIe-disc. In the right kind
OF soils it is the best furrow opener
and should be used IN many localities
where the single-disc is at present
used almost exclusively. The double
disc is. the most expensive furrow
opener to manufacture and must con-
sequently be sold at a lower profit
than the other types. For this reason
agents seldom urge their patrons to
buy this type. although companies fur
nish it on demand.
In buying drill the farmer should
determine which type OF furrow opener
is best suited to his soil conditions and
demand that type.
