The Bay Views came back in win
ming stride yesterday when they
walloped the Palace five of Peoples
Palace, Jersey City, by the score of
SO to 16 at the South Sixth street
hall. The contest was interesting all
the way despite the rather sided
score. The Wheelmen led with the
score 81 to 4 at the end of the first
half. Artie Conlan's free throwing,
and goal caging by the rest of the
cyclist players, featured the game.

Close students of footbatll say the
East and the West are likely to split
in another year and play under diff

making the trouble. Eastern football
experts don't like the forward pass,
while in the West the play is very
popular. The western members of
the football rules committee wanted
to split last winter, but were per-
suaded to keep on another year.

ACCIDENTLY SHOT
Gregory Breen, of Medicine Lake
Badly Wounded.

Rowing with a loaded gun pointed
towards him proved unfortunate for
Gregory Breen, Of Medicine Lake,
Mont. last Thursday when duck shoot
ing on the above body Of water. AS
the boat was near shore Breen backed
water but not sufficiently to lessen the
impact on the shore which slid the
gun on the thwart discharging i t.
The load of shot from the twelve
gauge bore stripped the flesh from
the inside of the left arm, exposing
the bone in some places and, glanc-
ing from that member, about thirty
of the shot imbedded themselves in
the left side. The penetration not be-
ing sufficiently deep however, to reach
vital spot.
Young Breen who is fifteen years
of age was brought to this city Fri
day where DR.. LaBarge gave the
wounded lad surgical attention and it
is thought the arm can be saved.

GOVERNMENT
WIRE is GONE
SNEAK THIEVES STEAL TWO
HUNDRED POUNDS OF COP
PER TRANSMISSION

During the recent high water the
ice and flood threw down a number Of
poles of the power transmission line
between here and Buford, large
part of the damage being done ON
the low ground east Of Buford. Since
that time some parties evidently
thinking that the government had no
further use for the poles or the wire
have gone up number Of poles and
carried away some two hundred
pounds of the wire.
1t is possible that a United States
marshall will be called on the case
if the wire is not returned in few
days and the damages made good.
AS the wire is worth some twenty
cents per pound the valuation Of it
alone runs up to over forty dollars
and the culprit stands an excellent
chance to spend few years at Ft.
Leavenworth or some other Federal
prison if apprehended.

The colonel's friends early today
said they expected little opposition
from the forces of President Taft, but
that they were prepared to meet sew
eral moves by the LaFollette aids who
apparently are determined to continue
the fight.

This will induce the formation Of a
deep instead Of superficial root sys-
tenn. In order to accomplish this the
rows must be sufficiently wide apart
to admit Of throwing up broad high
ridges with narrow deep burrows be-
tween, in which the water can be led
in small stream for a long period
rather than by means Of large
stream flowing only short time. The
successive irrigations should be carri-
ed on in alternate rows; the second
irrigation should be in the rows not
used by the first. Cultivation should
follow irrigation as quickly rs the
condition of the soil will permit, but
as soon as the tubers have made
their growth, usually about Septem-
Der /, water should be withheld so
that the soil will dry and the crop
ripen in proper condition for harvest
ing.

FIRST LIBRARY
ANNIVERSARY
NEARLY FIFTEEN THOUSAND
BOOK CIRCULATED-ONE
HALF JUVENILE

May eighth marked the library's
first anniversary and brief state
ment of the growth during the year
is, perhaps, fitting to this time. Since
the opening year ago 14,9O3 books
have been circulated, 6,70O of which
were juvenile and 8,203 adult books.
This is an average of 1922 books a
month. In March the circulation ran
up to 1862, 945 names appear on
the borrowers register, 568 of which
are adult and 377 juvenile. This
means an average of sixteen books
for each reader for the year. There
are now 3,49O books in the library and
others are being added week by week.
The number of people who have used
the reading rooms during the year is
estimated as $500. This is not an
exact count but the total of a census
taken twice a day, when the rooms
are fullest. The Sunday attendance
which began in November, has
amounted to 664, an average of Fl
for each Sunday. This includes holi-
days also.
The growth thus indicated is very
encouraging, but there are number
of people still who do not take ad-
vantage Of the privilege right at their
doors. When one considers how few
Libraries North Dakota has at pres
ent, Williston has every reason to
consider herself exceedingly FORUM
ate in the possession Of 80 we'll equip
ped an institution, generous gift,
indeed.
Five hundred and seventy-eight
reference questions have been looked
up and material found for club papers
or high school students, but the wealth
of the reference department has not
yet begun to be appreciated. Ad-
ditions are constantly being made to
it and nothing will prove the real
worth of the library to the commun-
ity better than the constant use Of
the reference books in answering any
and all puzzling questions that arise
in any line Of work.

SUGGESTIONS TO
POTATO GROWERS
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
GIVES VALUABLE DATA TO
TUBER FARMERS

Through the courtesy of Superin-
tendent of Irrigation Hill of the local
project we are able to publish the
following that will be of interest to
potato growers under the ditch. In
the circular, which is B. P. l. TIA of
the Department of Agriculture, pre-
paration of land and rotation of crops
are taken up in full. The following
is an extract from the document:
Preparation of Land.
Since the potato is a deep-rooted
crop and forms it's tubers beneath
the soil, it stands to reason that it
requires a much deeper seed bed than
will be necessary for cereal crops. In
fact, the preparation for potatoes
should be as deep and as thorough
as for sugar beets, whether in the
irrigated or in the humid region. If
a preparatory crop such as alfalfa or
clover is to be turned under for po-
tatoes, it is advisable to plow this
crop under in the fall and to COM
pact the soil sufficiently to make it
good retainer for water, but not
so smooth that it will blow. Before
planting in the spring the land should
be made fine to depth sufficient to
admit Of planting and cultivation. If
unusually dry the land should be irri-
gated before the crop is planted. If
the normal precipitation has occurred
during the winter and spring months
the crop may be planted without irri-
CATION. 1t is not advisable, however,
to plant the crop in dry, hot earth
and to Immediately irrigate it. 1rri-
CATION should precede rather than fol-
low the planting. If the crop does
not grow rapidly after planting,
irrigation should be provided from
time to time as the appearance Of the
crop and the condition of the soil
would indicate; dark-green or black
ish color shows lack Of moisture
on the part Of the plants, while light
green or yellowish tints indicates the
presence Of too much moisture. The
plant should be kept growing at the
maximum rate from the time it ap-
pears above the ground until it has
completed is seasons work, and
cultivation supplemented by ,irriga-
ton must be relied upon to keep the
plant working.
Method of Irrigation.
The water for irrigating potatoes
is best applied in every other furrow,
the furrows being narrow and deep
and the weter so applied that the
ground will not be saturated above
the point where the tubers are formed.

MINNESOTA is
FOR ROOSEVELT
COLONEL RUNS THREE TO ONE
OVER TAFT-LaFOLLETTE
MAKES POOR SHOWING

Minneapolis, May 1.-THE election
Of at least twenty Roosevelt delegates
from Minnesota and possibly delega-
tion Of twenty -four is forecast by re-
turns in the primaries.
The loss Of Hennepin county, the
Taft stronghold takes away all hopes
of electing Taft delegates from Min
nesota.
LaFollette's strength in some Sec
tions appears to have been swallowed
up by the Roosevelt wave. The coun-
ty conventions will be held Monday
and nearly all will instruct delegates
probably settling on that day the At
titude Of each congressional district.
Roosevelt men already are plan
ming things for control Of the state
convention. They hope to get Gov
ernor Bass Of New Hamshire to come
to Minneapolis and address the con-
vention which will be held next Thurs
day. Frank Knox, Of Michigan, vice
Chairman Of the Roosevelt National
headquarters, promises to help.
Two Roosevelt delegates from the
Fifth district will be elected in Min
neapolis Monday. The other eight
congressional districts will have con-
ventions Wednesday.
S. l. A. Caswell, Roosevelt state
manager, claims Roosevelt victories
in every county where caucusses have
been held and says Minnesota will
send solid Roosevelt delegation to
Chicago.
Running 8 to 1.
St. Paul, May 11.-Scattering re-
turns in the republican preferential
presidential returns in large num-
ber Of counties indicate that Roose-
velt is running ahead Of Taft BY 8

LIFE SKETCH OF
NEWELL earle
SOLDIER AND SAILOR PASSES
TO HIS, LONG HOME EARLY
SATURDAY MORNING

Newell Oscar Carle was born July
10th, 1912, in Boston, Mass. His
ancestors were among n 9
Dutch settlers in New England. AT
the age Of thirteen he became an
apprentice aboard q sailing vessel and
followed the sea for seven years.
While q sailor he visited the four
continents that border upon the At
lantic and was at Hampton Roads the
day after the fight between the Moni-
tor and Merrimac, and was fond OF
relating the sight he then saw. On
April End, 1862 he enlisted as .
volunteer in the U. S. Army from
Massachusetts and was at the time
Of his discharge a member Of COM
pany 6, heavy artillery, Mass, un-
attached. During the war he was
once injured, and once wounded, the
first by an explosion Of cannon he
was about to fire, and the latter by
q Confederate bullet piercing his right
leg. While in the army, he partici-
pated in the battle in the Wilderness
and other famous engagements Of the
army of the James. On the 9Th day
Of November, 1864 he was honorably
discharged from the army on ac-
count of physical disability resulting
from his wounds and malarial fever
contracted in the swamps of Virginia
on the onward march to Richmond.
In 1868 Carle came west with his
parents to Wisconsin. In 1871 he
was married to Christina Nyberg who
together with one daughter, Mrs. H.
w. Braatelien of Wiliston, N. D.,
survive him. In the 70's he helped
build the N. P. and the Milwaukee
roads in Minnesota and in 1875 filed
on homestead in southern Yellow
Medicine county, Minn., and where he
resided for 80 years, or until 1907,
when the family moved to Granite
Falls, Minn., where he had his home
at the time Of his death, May II 1912.
In November 1911 Mr. and Mrs.
Carle came to Williston, N. D., to
visit their daughter, Mrs. H. w.
Braatelien and it was while on this
visit that he was stricken with para
lysis, which with other complications
which set in resulted in death.
Mr.. Carle for nearly twenty years
was a member of the Odd Fellow
Lodge and this order and the veterans
of our vicinity assisted by Rev. Hol-
lette and Rev. Bloom conducted the
last rites.
The funeral took place from the
home of their daughter in this city
on May IL, 1912, and the interment
was in the local cemetery.
