GOOD ROAD LAWS.

The last legislature enacted some
good road Iegislation-but the next one
is expected to, do a great deal more.
There is room for much improvement
and the indications are there will be
some members of both branches who
will take a more active interest than
former legislators have done. :-
Theer are more farmers interested
in good road work than formerly.
More people own autos thar before.
Every one of these Immediately be-
m a good road advocate. Auto
clubs are doing good work in improv-
ing roads. In several townships the
farmers have taken up the work per-
sonally. The small fund from the
state auto licenses helps a little and is
the nucleus for contributions. The
law providing that counties can name
supervisors will have a tendency
toward unifying and systematizing
road work. The next legislature will
probably make it compulsory instead
of leaving it to the discretion of the
county commissioners-some of whom
are not as progressive in good roads
matters as they might be.
The Legislature has an opportunity
for accomplishing much for the good
roads movement by ~enacting a law
permitting the employment of short
term convicts on the highways for six
months of each year. This would re-
suit eventually in a few good roads in
each county. 1t would give the con-
victs an opportunity to have more
sanitary and healthful employment. :

Aberdeen, S. D.. April S0.-According

criticism that has been heaped upon ].

adopting the name OF some man who

II CENTENNIAL.

At New Orleans today there is a
celebration that is Of especial interest
to North Dakotans. 1t is the Tooth
anniversary OF the admission of the
Territory of Louisiana. This included
a.. the country west of the Mississippi
and put what is now North Dakota
on the map.
The state of Louisiana made an app
preparation for the proper observance
of the occasion-and North Dakotans
should have had an active participation
in the historical event.

TUESDAY, APRIL 80. 1912.
BENEFICIAL EFFECT.


The adverse crops of the last two
years in some parts of North Dakota
have done much toward securing a
change in farming m~ethods-and will
indirectly be of benefit rather than the
reverse. There had been so many
good crop years prior to 1910 that the
movement in favor of crop rotation,
creameries and dairying was losing
ground. Money in raising wheat was
o easy.
The light yields Of wheat in many
sections for two years caused the
farmers to turn their minds more
toward diversifcation and the effects
are noticeable in many ways. Cream
cries that were struggling along be-
fore are now on a sound basis. Some
that had been shut down have been re-
opened-and new ones are being es-
tablished.
More live stock is being raised. More
attention is now being paid to increas-
ing the fertility of the soil-and secur-
ing larger crop returns.
The adverse conditions caused a halt
and gave the farmers an opportunity
to listen to the suggestion of improved
methods.
Extravagant methods of farming
and great expenditures for needless
Injuries have been changed to more
economic systems.
A good crop this year will put North
Dakotans in a position to enjoy a
higher degree Of real prosperity than
ever before.

New York, April 3O.-The mystery of
Louis and Lolo, the Titanic waits, has
apparently been solved. Louis and Lo-
10 are two bright little French boys
who were picked up by the Carpathia
after the Titanic disaster. At first it
seemed as if their identity would never
be known, as it raj supposed that their
parents had been lost with the ship.
Miss Margaret Hayes, another Titanic
survivor, took them in charge and at
once made an effort to discover their
relatives.
Now beautiful Nine. Navraitil, Of
Nice, France, claims them as her own.
