Bismarck, N. D., Jan. Tt can be
stated that the rumors Of yesterday
referred to the office Of state treas
urer. Most OF the funds checked out
properly, but Mr.. BIclIford, the retiring
treasurer, presented sixteen time GER
tifieates on the First State bank of
Bowbells, N. D., his own financial in
stitution, amounting TO s40,43S. II, ana
drafts for $4,000, which the incoming
treasurer could not accept. This made
a total Of $50, 43S.11, and in addition
to this there is a deposit CT 5000 "a
with the Bowbells bank 70. which a
bond of $4,000 has peen given the
state.
Thursday afternoon the matter was
reported by Treasurer Olson and his
deputy to the state board Of auditors.
which consists Of the attorney gem
eral, the auditor and the secretary of
state. This board and the public ex-
aminer have been engaged in check
ing up the state treasurer's Office ever
since.
Neither Mr.. Olson nor his deputy
would admit anything further. In
speaking of tire matter both gentle
men We're retieent and preferred not
TO be quoted at present, Col John r.
Frame, late candidate for speaker OF
the house, is the attorney for State
Treasurer Olson.
1t is hoped that the retiring treas
urer can realize on the time certifeat ~
and drafts, and the matter can be
properly adjusted so that there viii be
no loss.
State Treasurer Bickford is under
stood to be in Fargo today and this
afternoon it is reported a conference is
IN progress among friends Of the re-
firing treasurer to see what can be
done to straighten out the affairs of
the office.
Friends Of Mr. Bickford explain the
large sums in his banlk-which was
bonded to the state for only $1,000
with the statement that he used the
Bowbells institution for clearing
house for that part of the state.
Tt is understood that at the meeting
today Mr. Bond Of Ward county Is
one Of the prime movers in the effort
to help out the former state treasurer.

CULTIVATION OF DRY CROPS
Main Thing 10 to See That Plants
Have Good Roots-No Tearing
Out n Done Properly.

Professor Blount was recently
quoted as advocating the advantage Of
cultivating grain crops in the arid
regions and being laughed at by some
who could not understand the philoso-
ply of such a proposition. Professor
Blount IL absolutely right % l have
proved by experience. Last season at
Cheyenne was one Of the driest on
record and all crops grown on the
state dry farm under my supervision
were cultivated several times after
they were up and had good roots
some when knee high to the team,
writes DR.. v. T. Cooke in the Denver
Field and Farm. The object Of cult
waiting with the crop az high as this
was more to show that such cultiva-
ton although possibly not beneficial
at least did no harm.
The crops cultivated were winter
wheat and winter rye In the spring.
Then in due time we also cultivated
spring wheat, oats, barley. emmsr or
speltz, Canadian field peas. stock
beets, corn, millet. sorghum and potar
toes. A twelvefoot three-row spring.
tooth riding weeder with lever was
used. This lever enables the driver
to control the depth Of cultivation. A
common steel drag harrow will take
the place Of a weeder as a cultivator
provided the teeth are sharp and set
elantingly. Judgment must be used on
some soils as to how early this work
should be begun. One can get onto
the crop too soon and thus tear out
considerable Of the growing grain.
which is entirely unnecessary.
The main thing is to see that the
crops have good roots and II the work
is properly done, very little II any
tearing out will occur. but the work
will surely get rii of thousands Of
weeds, as we'll as stimulate the crop.
besides making the soil In better con-
dition to conserve and receive mois-
ture. We know the cultivation OF corn
Is necessary and pays. Then why
not cultivate cereals? In fact all crops
grown in arid and semi-arid countries
should be cultivated Due considera-
ton should be given the grain crop IN
an ubnormally wet season. for cult
walton under these conditions Is not
so extremely essential.
A great deal more Importance
should be attached to this cultivation
than there is. The weeder gives the
farmer a greater margin Of time to
do this work because 1t enables him
to get onto taller grain and he can
control the depth he wishes to cult
vate. The weeder Is Of light draft and
a fast team can cover a considerable
area in a day. The common steel
drag harrow can be used and II very
effective in heavier soils.

On December "a. 1914. the treaty Of
Client was concluded and the war Of
1912 brought to an end. That strug-
gle had been glorious for America on
the water and humiliating on the land.
The battle Of New Orleans was fought
after peace had been made. Since
that time the United States and Eng
land have lived In peace that has
been proved substantial by several In
cidents. notably the Wilkes affair.
which. were the nations not genuinely
DESTROYS Of maintaining pacific rela-
lions. might easily have brought on
armed encounters.
Unquestionably the attitude Of Great
Britain In 1898 caused q revulsion Of
popular feeling in this country and re-
