Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1911-03-10

The first dry farming congress to be
held at Mandan came to success
full close Thursday evening and the
attendance on the closing day was
even better than that Of Wednesday.
The interest In better farming meth.
DDS which was shown by the hundreds
of Slope farmers who were present
at the convention bespeaks splendid
future for the western section Of the
state.
Every address was listened to with
the closest attention and the sturdy
tillers of the soil were busy think
ing over and digesting the various
points of advice that were suggested
by the speakers. Frequently the lee
turer would be interrupted by ques-
TONERS, and it was noteworthy that
none Of the inquiries was the result
of mere curiosity, but was the off,
spring of a real and q keen desire
for knowledge on the subjects under
discussion.
viii Make Use Of Advice.
Not only were !he English speak
ing farmers present during the var
ious sessions of the congress, but al
so the thrifty Scandinavians and the
practical Germans and Germap-Rus-
slams. A number of German speak
orr were secured and during the
congress several meetings for the

Splendid Addresses by President

College

farmers of this nationa!it; were held
in the basement of the opera house
and addresses were given to them
on practical farming methods, the
needs of diversified farming, and 9TH
er salient topics, in their mother ton
que. The general sentiment of the
entire gathering was that the men in
attendance when they returned to
their farm homes, would put into &C.
tual practice much of the knowledge
they thus secured, and the indications
are that If this is done to a consid-
cradle extent conditions on the Mis-
souri, Slope will be revolutionized and
this section of the stae will be the
most wealthy and the most produc.
tive in the northwest, and lack of
normal rainfall will not work hard.
ships upon the farmers that 1t has
done in the past.
Splendid Representation.
Almost every corner of the Slope
country was represented at the con.
vention, many farmers being present
from almost every one of the western
counties from Adams and Hetting
er on the south to Oliver and Mercer
on the north. A prominent feature
of Thursdays proceedings was the or.
ganization of two county dry farming
associations, those Of Oliver and Nor.
ton counties. 1t had also been ex.

sify and to keep live stock. By the
aid of fertility secured from the live
stock he had secured in the past
twenty year, an average of 1876
bushels of wheat per acre.
The afternoon program closed with
a talk by A. D. Gaines on moisture
in the soil, which was closely fol.
lowed by those present and was full
of practical suggestions.
Thursday Evening.
Thursday evening marked the close
of the convention. The high school
orchestra and local musical talent had
again arranged a splendid program
for the entertainment of the visitors
and their numbers were heartily re-
ceived. President Worst delivered the
principal address of the evening and
his address was full of splendid sug-
gestions to those present.
Creamery Meeting.
During the afternoon a number of
the farmers who live in the vicinity
of Mandan were gathered to discuss
the practicability of establishing a
creamery at Mandan. Dairy commits
sioner R. F. Flint addressed the meet
ing as did several other speakers. 1t
was decided, however, to hold a spec
ial meeting at later date when the
advisability of such move would be
more fully and thoroughly discussed.
