FARM EXPERT
SAVED FARMER
SUMMERS WORK

jamestown Capital: There is at
least n farmer i n Stutsman county
who has been saved his summers work
and several thousand dollars through
the work and activity of Mr.. Borchert,
of this city, the better farming expert.
There are probably many others who
will be located before the season is
over.
Mr.. Borchert heard of a farmer who
was about to seed fax which had stood
out all winter. No test of the seed had
been made, because 1t looked excellent
and plump and what was the use of
wasting timer Mr.. Borchert secured
a sample and after a test covering
about a period Of FIVE days found that
but Is per cent Of the fax terminated
and that was very weak. The lax
was absolutely worthless as seed.
As the farmer intended to seed 24O
acres he is better off now by $400
worth Of seed and the difference be-
tween a crop and no crop at all-pos-
sibly $4,000.
Another farmer seeded his barley
and then had the seed tested by Mr..
Borchert. Only s per cent of the seed
came up. There is yet time to reseed
and make a crop.
Mr.. Borchert tested the seed corn
which Miss McGinnis used in the coun-
ty school children's contest with the
following excellent results:
Sixteen per cent of the seed is dead.
six per cent is weak. Seventy Eight
per cent is strong and good seed.
This is a valuable test and shows
that this North Dakota homegrown
and carefully selected seed is all
right and better than the average
corn. 1t is Minnesota No. % and
means that the children will have a
good stand of corn and a fine crop, If
they do their share of the work and
cultivation, which is ~undoubted.
An ounce of prevention is worth
several tons of cure, evidently.

SHERIDAN COUNTY
IS PROSPECTING

Bismarck, N. D., May 20.--Sheridan
county is keeping abreast of the times
and expects to enjoy its share of North
Dakota prosperity this year. There is
scarcely a farmer of Sheridan county
who will not plant a least a quarter
section of corn during the next week
or two, providing that he can secur
the seed, and the greater interest that
is generally being taken in better
farming augurs we'll for the future OF
this hustling little section of the state.
This, at least is the belief of Sheriff
Frank =. Callahan, who was n Of a
party Of four McClusky gentlemen
who motored over to the capital city.
The other members Of the auto
party were Ed X. Moore, editor of
The McClusky. Gazette; States Atty.
Thomas ID. Morrow and Hon. r.. M.
Rishworth, banker and real estate
dealer. They were here attending to
some business affairs. and at the same
time were enjoying a visit In the ex-
position city.
Sheriff Callahan has been suffering
from an injured foot and spent sew
eral weeks in the twin cities consult
ing a specialist during the winter. AL
though the injured member is some
what better, the sheriff will probably
be obliged to spend several more
weeks in the cities for treatment
much to the regret of his many friends
in Sheridan county, who are hoping for
his speedy recovery.

KILLED
BY 500 TRAIN

Minot, N. D., May 2O.-stonozzi
Rossi, an italian section hand en-
ployed by the 500. was struck and in
stantly killed by east bound 500 train
No. 106 two miles west Of the city.
According to Rossi's companions,
he, together with VIM. M. Ward, the
section foreman, and three other Sec
ton hands. had eaten their dinner
and were sitting on the south | OF
the track talking. Rossi complained
of the mosquitoes and moved over onto
the north side and was heard singing
only a short time before the accident
occurred. Rossi's companions had
moved down the embankment about
fifty feet way and so lost sight of
Rossi, who apparently fell asleep with
his head too near the track. Train
No. $50, the west bound flyer, passed
the men before Rossi moved. No. $50
and No. 10S passed each other at Bur-
lington and after the latter train had
passed the men got up and as they
started to work discovered the dead
body Of their companion.
Judge Murray was notified and he
Immediately went to the scene Of the
accident, about two miles west of the
city. Rossi had been hit on the right
side of the head near the crown, and
it is believed that the cylinder cock
of the engine caught the man as he
was lying on the track. His hat had
been pushed off and rolled under the
wheels. Aside from the wound in the
head his body was not injured. No
outcry was heard and it was evident
that the man died instantly.
Rossi was about "a years Of age
ami had been in the employ of the Soc
on this section since last November.
Charles Fales, one~of his companions,
is a cousin.
