HOW TO SAVE Pecan

ing the depredations made by rabbits
on the young pecan trees in the orch
ards in some sections of the state
Thomasville man is deminded of see
ing corn cobs used as a protection to
young trees in a similar case.
While he was riding in a neighbour
ing county several years ago an or
chard was passed which had been
planted in young apple and pear trees.
Seeing that the trunks of the trees
had a very peculiar appearance Il
nearby examination was made and
they were found to have rows of corn
cobs tied on lengths of Irvine and
strung all around the body of each
tree. Upon inquiry as to why it was
done, the statement was made that it
was to prevent the rabbits from bark
ing the trees and it had been found
near a tree which had the cobs on It.
most efficacious, not a rabbit going
What kept "Brer" Rabbit away from
one sort of tree probably would be
equally as god for another sort and in
sections where corn cobs could be
easily obtained the experiment would
be worth trial n this section of the
state where there are more green
things for the rabbits to eat there have
been no complaints of their troubling
the pecan trees at least so far as
known.

nearly everybody in the apartment

north so long she's just like northern

"Speakin' of talkin' to strangers,

ever since I've been here, and l knew
he was all ready to speak to me if l

we'd meet in the hall, though, or in

heavy FIRE Loss

HANK1NSON, N. D., March 49,
Fire destroyed the general store OF
Goldstein & Kulberg, involving loss
of $4,000 on stock and fixtures and
$4,000 on building. Goldstein & Kul
berg carried insurance to the amount
of $4,000. and B. Peitz had $4,000
insurance on the building. The
building and contents were a total
loss. nothing being saved.
The fire was discovered by train
men going to work. BY the time the
first man was on the scene the rear
of the store was mass of flames,
and within five minutes the entire in
terror was a roaring furnace. The
origin Of the fire is a mystery. A.
Goldstein and Max Wexler were
sleeping upstairs and barely escaped
with their lives, leaving their room
in very scanty attire. From the first
1t was evident there was no chance
to save the building or contents, and
the fire department devoteU their en-
ergies to protecting adjoining prop
erty. A good share of John Green's
hardware and furniture stock was re-
moved to the street, and the east and
north walls of the burning building
were braced up to keep the fire from
spreading. There was scarcely a
breath of air stirring, but what little
there was came from the north, car
'rying the flames to the open space
in front of the store.

EXPERIMENTS At THE
DICKINSON station

DICKINSON, N. D., March Is
The local experiment station is at
tanning some outside reputation re-
garding it's alfalfa work. Nearly a
year ago an article appeared in a
Russian botanical journal referring
to the extensive alfalfa breeding un.
der way at Dickinson. Some time
after this the experiment station To-

la, Russia, sent a request through

sentative, located in l4..s country, for
seeds of series of alfalfa strains
that we're being tried out at Dfckin.
son.
Recently Supt. L. R. Waldron sent
via New York to the Shatilovskaya
experiment station, located at Novo.
sill, series of II alfalfa strains.
Among these were several very har.
dy and cold resistant. 1t is interest
ing to note that North Dakota, which
Is just beginning the culture Of alfal.
ia, is called upon to furnish such an
old county, strains of stet which per.
haps will form the basis of the fut.
ure alfalfa industry of Russia, and
perhaps 0f Siberia. It will be re-
membered that it was at Dickinson
that the justly celebrated Grimm al
falfa had its most extensive trial. A
recently issued journal of Australia
mentioned the important alfalfa in
vestigations at Dickinson.

NOT SALTS, OIL OR
PILLS | But CASCARETS
No odds how sick your Stomach; how
hard your head aches Or how b.
ous-cascarets make you
feel great.

You men and women who somehow
can't get feeling right-who have an
almost daily heodache, coated tongue,
foul taste and foul breath, dizziness,
can't sleep, are bilious, nervous and
upset, bothered with a sick, gassy, dis
ordered storcach, or have backache
and feel all worn out.
Are you keeping clean inside with
,Cascarets, or merely forcing a pas
sageway every fe" days with salts,
cathartic pills or castor oil? This is
important.
Cascarets work while you sleep;
cleanse and :egulate the stomach, re-
move the sour, undigested and fer
menting food and sour gases; take the
excess bile from the liver and carry
out Of the system all the decomposed
waste matter AMI poison in the intes-
tines and bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will straighten
you out by morning-a 10-cent box
from any drug store will keep your e7.
tire family feeling :ood for months.
Don't forget the children. They love
Cascarets because they taste good
do good-never grippe or sicken.

viii Be interesting,

! When a great state relies for the
foundations Of tts prosperity on a few
kinds Of agricultural products only
its growth and development are sure
to be subject to great fluctuations due
to conditions of climate, soil. crops
and markets. North Dakota is pretty
we'll convinced on this topic after
the experience of the past two years
But in a state Astounding in DIVERSE
fed industries there lis a much more
uniform and substantial development,
for If conditions are unfavorahle any
year to particular industry there
are other industries which will be
be but slightly affected, or perhaps
not at all. The diversity of indus
tries serves as the balance Wheel
preventing serious disturbance in
business conditions. We have not yet
grown used to thinking of our own
state as a great industrial state and
state of diversified industries
chiefly because we are In almost EN-
tire Ignorance as to its possibilities!
Dean Earl J. Babcock, of the school
of mines of. the State University,
will, give us all some real food for
thought in his lecture on "Or UNI
developed Resources" which is to be
given at the Commercial Club Hall
under the auspices OF the Commercial
Club next Wednesday evening. The
lecture Will be Illustrated and sup
plemented with several interesting

ord of absolute im1artiality in the
handling of the thousands of matters

ton, has gained for him the love and
