The Bismarck city hall and fire sta.
ton for years existing only in name
is to become reality in the near fu.
ture. Work on the excavation has
almost been finished by Contractor
Larson's men and large cement mix
err is there ready to begin at mo-
ment's notice.
When completed the building will
have two stories with full basement
and Il tower rising nearly twenty feet
above the main edifice, containing a
belfry for the fire alarm bell The
building will be faced with dark Heb
ron pressed brick and trimmed with
light Eedford stone, making very
good appearance. The rofnt eleva-
ton of the structure will present a
very business like appearance with
two large doors of the latest improved
dc sign which swing inward automati-
cally at time of fires. There will be
a smaller ordinary door at one side of
the building with vestibule entrance
for ordinary purposes.
The basement is to be divided into
three sections, one with modern
boiler room and the fuel room adjOin-
ing it in the rear: the central one will
contain twelve modern steel cells and
all necessary equipment: while the
section to the right of the building will
contain a wOman's cell room, fully
equipped the kitchen with the janitor's
apartments adjoining and the office
of the chief OF police with door open
ing into the alley. making it more cas-
~ accessible.
The main floor will be taken mp
mostly with the apparatus room OF the
fire department.. a space 31N47 feet be-
ing given to the fire engines. while
draining and drying racks of the latest
pattern will be installed on the walls
to take care of the hose.
The floor of the apparatus room will
he of heavy reinforced concrete so that
no trouble need be experienced in
keeping the room clean while cleaning
hose and apparatus inside. At the
rear OF the room, stretching along the
back of the building are five stalls,

new CITY AND fire HALL
MODERN IN ALL RESPECTS

! each equipped with automatic doors
similar to those at the front entrance
and working with them, and capable
OF accommodating two horses. Enough
of the stalls will be finished to care
for the horses in use at the present
time. while the remaining cells will
be left unfinished until the new auto
mobile apparatus, which the city COM
mission hopes to install in a year or
two, is placed in use, so that the space
can be modelled to suit the new ma
chimes. In fire halls of this kind the
main trouble is in the ventilation, es.
pecially when stalls for the horses are
maintained in the same part of the
building. Architect Van Horn says
that the ventilation is to be one of
the main features of the hall. not only
in the apparatus and stall rooms, but
all over the building.
The second floor, like the basement.
is divided into three main sections en-
tending from the front of the build
ing to the rear. The section on the
left is divided into two offices, one
for the president of the city commits

middle section is to be devoted to an
assembly room for the volunteer men,

be equipped as reading room and
lounging room and will also contain
cases for the trophies won by the fire
team in the past. The city commits.
sioner's assembly room will be on
this floor as will the office of the chief
of the fire department.

will be hard to beat.

EVERYTHING IS GOOD
Under THE Ditch

State Engineer Atkinson has just
returned from a trip over the western
part of the state and during his alb
sence visited the Williston and Lower
Yellowstone irrigation projects, and is
very enthusiastic over the wonderful
results being obtained from the use of
irrigation water on these lands.
There is approximately 1000 acres
being watered on the Williston prof.
ect and 10000 acres on the Lower Vel.
lowstone. Now that the differences
between the farmers and the govern
ment have been adjusted the watering
of the crops is going along well and it
is expected that next year practically
all of these irrigable lands will receive
water
The wheat gives promise of a yield
of thirty bushels per acre with many
fields that will yield forty bushels.
The farmers have begun to see the
income that is to be had from alfalfa
and have seeded large acreage this
year The first cutting of the crop
was made two weeks ago and the Sec
ond crop is coming along nicely, being
from eight inches to foot high. Three
cuttings will be made this year and a
! total yield of five tons per acre is en-
pected The state engineer believes
that within few years the average
annual net income from these irri-
gated lands will not be less than $40
per acre. With the land irrigated
there can be no failure Hail is the
only thing that might cause worry and
this strikes but seldom and can be
insured against.
1t would be to the great advantage
of everybody in the western part OF
the state to conserve all the moisture
which runs down coulee or stream ON
his land. 1t is simple problem to
dam these coulees and carry the flood
waters Of the spring season over the
land and thus insure a crop every year
Many farmers of the state have al
ready done this and others are pre-
pairing their dams and bitches for next
season. Several thousand acres along
the Upper Mouse river are being irri-
gated this season. and bOuntiful har-
vest is assured on these lands.
When the lands are so situated that
they cannot take advantage of cou-
lees or streams. several acres can be
watered from wells-enough to waterl

THE MAN tanner,

1t seems that one Joseph r. Darling,
sent out by the United States govern
ment for that purpose. has just sue
ceeded in rounding up couple of
Santo Domingo revolutionists with Of
fetal and military titles who have
been scheming in Porto Rico and
New York. Just what the govern
ment expects to do with them is not
given out. but they may be used in
vaudeville or motion pictures. These
avenues are always inviting to such
characters.

people seem to be seeking something

Estimating Crops Of Alfalfa.

The reputed superiority OF the Vel.
lowstone valley as an alfalfa growing
district is questioned by Paul H.
Schwartz, the we'll known Big Sandy
stockman, who bae extensive land
holdings in the Bear Paw country.
Mr.. Schwartz took q big outfit of
sheep to Billings a few weeks ago, to
feed them for the early spring market,
and purchased q supply of Yellow
stone valley alfalfa hay for that pur-
pose.
In writing the River Press his ex-
periences in that connection, MIR.
Schwartz Gays in part:
~ am now 10 a position to explain
to you how they manage t produce
so many ions Of alfalfa to the acre
down here. When. you start out to
buy they sell you about five tons to
the acre, but when you measure it by
their own manufactured rule-which
they hold you to, and which 10 422
cubic feet to the tou-you have about
four tons to the acre. Then, when YOU
put this hay through q baler, you
have about three tons, stand arc
weight, to the acre.
1.-THE rule, according to the Mon
tana statutes, is that SIP cubic fee
constitute q ton of alfalfa hay. So
after all, We raise just as much pei
acre up there as they do down here
and when you buy q ton of hay 70,
get q tom"
