we're of the month, will make home the
most comfortable place and outdoor
terror to man and beast. Don't for
get the dates of that winter storm; it
might hit you hard.
Not many sunspots this month. The
storms viii hit the earth harder than
they will the sun. Jupiter will be a
bright morning star and Mars the red
morning star. Saturn will be tile eve
ming star, but will not make fine APP
pearance without a good glass. The
month will average unusually cold
west of meridian 81 and much warmer
east of that line. This difference win
come from two or three cold waves
that win be more severe west of merid-
ian 81. The month will be deficient
in precipitation In the winter wheat
sections.
The big corporation combine he's
demonstrated it's ability to control
grain prices at the great markets and
it has also demonstrated the necessity
Of the big stick in the hands of Wig

ing the winter season, but it win soon
come UP against a more difficult task.
When the crops are growing knowl-
edge of future crop weather is better
than big corporation combine and
predict that the latter win not control
grain prices during the coming crop
season.
Orthodox scientists claim they have
investigated planetary meterology. but
they have not. Their methods are IL
Illustrated by their efforts to investigate
the moons effects on the weather. In
this they use each new moon for each
boy should know better. Common
sense would say take only the new
moons of past Januaries for investi-
eating the effects of the new moon in
January. You could not expect the
same effects from the new moons OF
January and July But that is the or
thodox method of investigation.
Again, you could not expect the new
moon of. every January to have the
same effect. Orthodox scientists never
caught that idea. To find similar re-
suits we must take the new moons
that are similar and these occur nine
teen years apart The moons cycle is
nineteen years and as a general rule,
but with many exceptions. the moon
has similar effects on the weather
every nineteen years. The mistakes of
orthodox scientists are vastly greater
when they try to investigate the plan

above talks VIII be made by several
farmers Farmers of North Dakota
and of adjacent states should realize
that the agricultural development of
the northwest is barely begun. In
order to bring about greater develop
ment the farmers must be educated to
practice better systems of farming,
and this Dry Farming congress will
be one of the agents of this work
This congress is a state wide affair,
and the farmers Of the state and OF
the adjacent states are urged to at
tend. The few successes secured last
season in the drouthy districts by
certain men is good evidence that with
better farming methods the drought
injuries could have been largely pre-
vented. 1t is a matter of dollars
and cents to the farmers, and the
farmer should make every reasonable
effort to increase his knowledge i'm
regard to the methods and results of
dry farming. The citizens of Diclxin-
son have made up a purse for pre-
nliums for farm products. Competi-
ton is open to North Dakota. and
to products that were grown in 1910
under dry land conditions. The ex-
hibit is to be accompanied by the
farmer who grew the product. The
experiment station at Dickinson will
have an exhibit showing some Of their
different varieties of grain, with other
interesting features.
