IN BREAKING PRAIRIE SOD
Ideal Method Of Preparing Land Pre-
paratory to q Crop-Fiax 10
Commonly Grown.

(By L. r. wALDRON, North Dakota A.
ricultural College.)
1t is generally held that the ideal
method Of subduing prairie sod, pre-
paratory to a crop. is as follows: The
20. is broken as shallow as possible
in June or early In July. For this
purpose a walking plow is considered
preferable. In August, after the sod
ia rotted, the ground is plowed again,
back-set, as 1t Is called. For this pur.
pose a stubble plow is used, turning
back the old furrow and bringing up
two or three inches Of the new dirt.
This ground is prepared, as circum-
stances indicate. during the fall and
the following spring, for the. crop. It
is often advisable to 60 over the new
breaking with an implement to datten
the sods against the ground to aid tho
rotting process. On gravelly land with
little turf OF on scrub land, it is bet.
ter to pillow once, breaking as deeply
as possible.
Many Of the new settlers will want
to grow q crop upon their land the
first season. In such . case. n plow-
Ing must suffice. The blowing must
be done earlier in tho season and
should be at least three inches deep.
Preparation for the need may DO made

 Elected President.

Little Rock, Ark, June At the buslness meeting of the fifth annual convention of the Frsternal Order of Eagles this morning, Fort Smith vas elected as the city to have the sixth annual convention in. 1912. The fol- lowing State officers were elected: John B. Mare, of Little Rock, presi- dent; Edgar Brewster, of Pine Bluff, and sheriff of Jefferson county. vice president; W. c. IIuuon Of Little Rock secretary; Al Gunther of Hot Springs, treasurer; and Dr. W. D. Buckner, of Little Rock, chaplain.
 John B. Marre, the newly elect,d president, is a native of Little Rock. and his policies will be for the State in the future the same Ss they have In tue past, for the uplifting of the order and the placing of it on a higher plane and improving the per sonnel of it. He is going into the vari- ous cities of the state that can sup port an Aerie and that have none, and organize, thus increasing the membership of the Eagles greatly He is exceptionally strict in making rhe order :. up to its high principles, and as president he signifies his in- tention not to permit an Aerie to ex- ist that has not for it's purpose the betterment of the community in which it exists.
 The meeting this morning showed the effort that the Eagles are making to establish themselves Ion a higher plane, the initiation and workings of the order were improved and refined | and more attention will be given to clarity, although in the past they have done a great deal along this line.
 The incest feature of this conveu- tion has been the presence of the Ladies' Eagle Clubs of the State, ard much credit is being given Mrs A. H, Hoffman, the president of Little Rock Club, for the manner in which her club is assisting in the entertainment of the lady delegates to the conven- tion.
 Mrs. N. C. Thomas, president Of the Lades' Club of Pine Bluff, and Mrs. w. c. McBryde, the secretary of the same club, are working very hard to organize a State order of the ladies, clubs.
