WINTER WHEAT j ..,...
DOES WELL HERE
Successful Ramsey County Farmers
Favor Growth of this
Cereal

Frank Pitcher, one of Ramsey coun-
tvs most successful farmers has dem
onstrated by his own experiment, that
winter wheat can be grown to good
advantage in this county. On Friday
last he threshed out thirty acre field,
that yielded 20 bushel to the acre. This
wheat was cut three weeks before, but
owing to the wet weather the thresh-
ing was delayed with waste as conse-
quence, that might have brought the
yield up another two or three bushels
easily. Mr.. Pitcher is the second far
mer in this county to experiment sue
cessfully with winter wheat C. H.
Baker has been very successful and
both he and Mr.. Pitcher are already
having all kinds of demands for the
seed. Mr.. Pitcher is plowing his land
up again and will plant it down immed-
lately so as to give the seed a good
start before the cold weather comes.
In the Agricultural College Bulletin
are some valuable hints about plant
ing winter wheat:
IF this crop could be successfully
carried through the winter and spring
it would be worth millions of dollars to
North Dakota as it is mature before
the adverse weather has time to in
jure it to any great extent. Expert
ments carried on for several years
show that winter wheat cannot be de-
pended upon to go through the winter
on plowed land or summer fallow, but
if it is planted in standing corn or in
stubble it can nearly always be de-
pended upon to go through the winter
and produce good crop provided
there is enough moisture to germin-
ate the seed. Winter wheat should al
ways be drilled into the corn and at
least one row in four should be left
with the stalks standing to catch the
winters snow-a one horse drill
should be used between the corn rows.
If the corn is short the ordinary disc
grain drill may be used. Stubble land
should be disced with the discs set
nearly straight three or four days be-
fore the wheat is seeded in order to
arrest moisture for the wheat kernels
as soon as planted, If winter wheat is
seeded in stubble it should always be
seeded with disc drill and the wheat
should be put down about three inches.
From the 10th to the 18th of August is
the best time to seed winter wheat in
western North Dakota and under no
circumstances should it be seeded after
September LIST or before August 1st.s
Weeds in the stubble such as Russian
thistle. viii help the winter wheat to
go through the winter To- a very mark,

grown seed should be used If possible

A brilliant social affair of Tuesday
afternoon was the wedding of Miss

Albert Henry Bell, one of Devils
Lakes most prominent young business
men. The ceremony occurred at the
home of the bride and was performed
by Rev. A. G. Bailey, according to the
Presbyterian faith. Only a few init
mate friends of the young people and
family connections were present.

1900 WARDENS
PROTECT GAME
Chicken Shooting Promises to Be
the Best in Years...Season
Opens Sept.

CMcKen shooting In North Dakota,
the season which opens Sept. 7, prom
ises to be exceptionally good, accord
ing to E. H. Stenvick of Minot. The
warm sunshiny days of May and June
were ideal for Matching and conditions
have been excellent during the entire,
summer.
Fifteen hundred deputies have just
been appointed by the state game war
den. There will be less shoot
ing out of season in North Dakota
than has occurred in previous years.
The number of deputies appointed is
five times the number appointed in any
previous year.
The new game law passed at the last
session of the legislature remedies sew
eral defects in the former law, and it
will be the duty of the deputy game
wardens to see that this law is strictly
enforced. Under the new law trained
dogs are allowed to run in the fields
after Aug. Is, but hunters are not al
lowed to carry guns until after Sept.
7. The law relating to geese has been
changed so as to allow spring shoot
ing up to May 10, but peculiar clause
has been discovered in the law pro-
viding that no hunting of geese shall
be allowed within half a mile of wa
tiers, and upon the construction of the
term permanent waters" will depend
largely the enforcement of this pro
vision. If by permanent waters is
meant lakes that always contain water,
it is said that this provision will prac,
tically prohibit geese shooting in
North Dakota, since ills only IN these
lakes that the geese are found.
The Mouse river country is famous
for its prairie chickens, and this Sec
ton expects the regular annual influx
of nonresident hunters who throng no.
eels of Minot,. Towner, Bottineau, Ken
mare, Stanley and Williston every sea.
som Reports from Bottineau state
that chickens are going to be plenti-
full and equally favorable reports come
from Towner, Rugby and generally
throughout the northwestern part of
the state. b
Ducks will also be found in great
abundance. In the hill district south
west of Minot and running northwest
into Canada the sloughs are all full of
water and farmers state that there are
ducks galore. The country between
Minot and Williston, which is more or
less broken and rugged; abounding in
lakes and sloughs, is a great favorite
for duck hunters, and from reports re-
ceived there will be ducks for all this
year.
Western North Dakota is also favor
ed with Canadian geese which stop on
their fight southwark about freezing
up time. Kenmare, Baifour, Churchs
Ferry and Rugby are favorite points
for geese hunters, and these cities are
expecting the usual influx of North Da-
kotans as we'll as non-residents next
October and November.

FISH WILL THRIVE
IN DEVILS LAKE

That fish can live and thrive in the
waters Of Devils Lake and that the
matter of stocking the area of 100000
acres which compose the largest body
of water in the northwest will only be
a matter Of a comparatively short time,
is the conclusion reached by Dean NJ
A. Brannon of the arts department of
the University of North Dakota, in
charge Of the experiment and research
work being done at the Biological sta
tion on the shores of Devils Lake. Aft
r$22 years during which no fish have
lived in the kaline-saline waters of
the immense lake, there is every as
surance that the waters will soon be
restocked and Devils Lake made a
mecca for anglers. as well as Chau-
tauquans who throng here from all
parts of the country every summer.
The conclusion reached by Dean
Brannon follows a series Of expert
ments conducted this summer, which
satisfies him, that the main object for
which the biological station was erect
ed; has been so near complished as
to prove the worth of the institution.
After a score Of unsuccessful expert
ments, in which, fish OF all descriptions
have died, the last and successful one
shows that pickerel can live III the or
Sdinary lake water, and for that matter
probably any other variety Of fish. For
the past month a school of pickerel
have lived III d tank OF lake water sat

mems appeared so healthy yesterday
that one was placed in the cage main
tanned out III the lake, and how this
one prospers will be- watched with q

HONESTY FIRST REQUISITE
Underlying Principle of Successful
Advertising n. NJ. Mckinney
Tells Harvard Students.

The students of the graduate school
OF business administration at Harvard
university were told some facts about
advertising recently by H. N. McKin-
ney of Philadelphia. He took for his
topic, advertising a Power In the
Molding of Thought" Mr.. Mckinney
is connected with n. w. Aver & Son,
an advertising agency of Philadelphia.
advertising is the art of creating a
desire, or Increasing an already exist
ing desire, and fixing it upon some GER
tain article until that article is pur-
chased. Advertising is the silent
salesman, repeating the selling argu-
ment until 1t fastens itself in the mind
of the reader. Advertising is not
get-rich-quick scheme. 1t is not an
easy road to success. 1t is a hard,
painataking study of human nature in
all it's phases, and its success is an
evidence of a correct understanding of
the human mind.
THE underlying principle of all ad-
verfising is always the same-the APP
plication of the principle is rarely
twice alike The principle is the crea-
ton of thought, and the mOlding OF
that thought in a given direction. 1t
matters not whether the article adver-
tised is a railroad bond, diamond
bracelet or a package of food: the OBJ
iect of the advertiser is to create de-
sire for that particular thing so In
tense that a sale follows.
"While the principle is unchanging
and Interchangeable, the application of
It must be fitted to each individual
case. and not a small part Of many ad
vertising failures is due to the assump-
ton that because certain line of ad-
vertising has been successful in one
case II will be in another. The right
principle was wrongly applied, with
resulting failure.
'aThs first and most important requi-
site of all advertising is honesty; no
success can be permanent unless hon
esty is the foundation upon which
everything else is built. The article
advertised must be honest In its manu-
sacture. in its appearance and in its
mice. while the advertising must be
honest and truthful in all statements
and in all impressions and differences.
II believe that at least one-half of
the hundreds of millions of dollars an
nually expended in advertising in all
the United States Is utterly wasted.
and this is very largely because of the
popular idea that anybody can attend
ia the advertising of business"
