Great Northern had brot condemna
ton proceedings against additional
portions CT their farms thru which the
Fargo-Surrey line will be built. In

Of Cass, Barnes, Steele, Griggs, Fos-

and a portion Of Ward. The G. N.
wants TO borrow ballast from the
farmers and pay them at the rate OF
SIS an acre. This price Is not at all
satisfactory to them, and several suits
will result unless the G. N. bids
higher. The additional strips vary
in width from 25 to SO feet on either
side Of the track, and sometimes ex-
tend for a distance Of 600 feet.

Arctic blue wolf hides, and numerous
mink and lynx pelts. Mr.. Parker
is famous huter and was very sue
cessful.
He will have the wolf hides mounted
for rugs. He had the lot on display

ton. The Arctic wolves are large
vicious animals, and when they get
desperate they sometimes come south

threw out poisoned meat for them and
secured several in that manner.
H. T. Van Wagner, formerly CT

Van is now working at the stonema-

He claims that Van Wagner is a
very agreeable companion, a good
hunter, but nightly poor cook.

bEATER
IS WARNED
Neighbors of Fred Hoff Make Him
Promise to Be Better Man
or Suffer.

Bottineau,. NJ. D., April. ia
dozen determined men made it decid-
edly plain to Fred Hoff, a farmer liv-
ing a few miles north of Gardena, in
this county. that he would have to
mend his ways or he would receivc
another visit that would have a diff
erent purpose than mere warnings.
Several days ago Hoff gave his wife
brutal beating, maltreating her to
such an extent that it was reported
that she was lying between life and
death for several days He has on
other occasions, particularly when he
came home drunk, beaten and kicked
his wife, she has refused to lodge
complaint against him, and for that
reason he has escaped the punish
ment he deserves Hoff forces his
daughters to do the farming, refuses
to send his younger children to
school and spends much Of his time
and money in drinking.
The men who called on him Mon
day afternoon were farmers living III
the vicinity and the ultimatum they
delivered was that he must quit
drinking, must not beat his wife, must
send his children to school regularly
and must do his ow farm work. All
of the things demanded Hoff promised
and he was warned that he had bette
keep his pledges to the letter.
Those who visited the wife-beater
say they saw Mrs. Huff through a
window of the farm house and that
she had her head bandaged up. It is
impossible to learn just how serious
her ijuries are but the report is that
her wrist and three or four ribs were
broken, and that she was cruelty
beaten and kicked about the head.

DON'T SOW

GROUND
Major Murphy Gives the Farmers
Some Timely Advice and Tells
Very Plainly Why-No Room for
Discoura cement.

In the past few days | have fre
quently been asked this question
Would you begin putting the seed in
the ground now as soon as you can
get on the land? My answer is
don't rush it, Wheat put in the
ground now may, and most likely will
germinate-but the ground is yet
quite cold and much CT the vitality
of the kernel will be wasted IN an ef-
fort to exist, and this, of course,
weakens the plant life and retarus
its eventual development
If you will just stop and consider
that the grain for the first ten day
must live on the body of the kernel
surrounding it and that for nearly
three weeiiS il draws most of its sus-
tenance from this source or until the
rootlets are sent out and gets hold OF
he elements that makes for growth
and also that the all important thing
required by the germ during the first
days of its life, is heat-when you
think of those things you can readily
see that it is better to plant the seed
after the ground is we'll warmed up,
so that it can 60 forward with a mod
erately steady growth without shock
or too much effort being expended Ill
an effort to just keep alive.
What you should do now is to har
row and keep narrowing. In this
particular region most of the winter
snow went into the ground and this
together with the recent wet snow
puts the nitrate at work and much of
Now if this moisture be conserved /:
will be able to give the grain good
start in life. The moisture, we all
know, can be saved by working the
land and maintaining good dust
mulch on top.
In order to hold the moisture we
now have l am now single discing
the land intend to put into oats
speltZ, corn, potatoes and flax during
the last twenty days of May and the
first ten days of June.
In addition to holding the moisture
this discing also serves another pur
pose and that is it airiates the soil,
put the nitrate at work and much of
the weed seeds will germina.e and be
destroyed later on when turned ull-
der-as, OF course, l will plow this
land Immediately before planting.
Don't forget that a well worked,
thoroughly fined sub surface packed
seed bed--One where the furrow slice
is compacted down against the sub
soil-so that the principal Of capilar-
ity can wor keasily-and then get
and maintain mulch on top-is alb
solutely essential for the best results.
The average farmer now knows
those things-but for some reason he
is loath to work that part of his anat-
omy above his eyes as much as he
ought.
There is no room for discourage
ment this spring. For eighteen
months the whole northwest has been
behind in it's usual supply OF precip-
itation. Nothing prevails 80 un
formly as the law of averages In eli
mate and precipitation. We will get
the rain, deluge of it some day.
Put in every acre you can handle we'll
and thoroughly and no more, "Trnst
in God but keep your powder drv
by conserving every bit OF moist
now in your soil.
