SAVING THE SUNSHINE.

Most true conservationists will |
agree with the secretary Of the inter- |
Tor in his condemnation Of those loud
takers who spend their energies In
discussing the wickedness of waste,
without ct the same time being will
ling TO assist in any practicable plan
to stop the evils they 30 greatly de-
plore- We suspect, however that
few, even of those good citizens who
believe in the wisest Use of natural
resources and who are sincerely eager
TO safeguard the public good both now
and hereafter, realize how easy il is
TO neglect opportunities for conserya-
ton which lie at out door. The coal
and forests in Alaska are of vast i'm
portance, but the discharge Of our
duty with regard to them will not oc-

need Is TO see that we make the best
use of natural resources in our own
back yards. How about making 1.-TWO
blades Of grass grow where one grew
before7" Why isn't that Just as i'm
portant as keeping the coal or saving
the streams or doing any of the thou
sand and one things that we individ-
ually can only talk sbout7 Our truest
conservationists are those gardeners
and farmers who catch the sunshine
and husband the rain and strive intel
ligentiy to keep pace in production
with the increase of the non-sgricul-
tural population
The need of conservation Of food
supplying resources is obvious There
are more people in America every
year. and every year the soil. if IN
repIenished, is impoverished The
area of rich land decreases and the
cost of living rises Conservation of
the potential power of sun and soil is
the only reasonable solution of the
problem of nation-feeding and just
here is our opportunity. What is for
the nations good is also for our indi-
vidual profit The wise use Of the
soil means money in our pockets
The very greatest product Of land

Young Children.

W. E. King Of Bel6eld took Mrs, Mary

Jamestown. Mrs. Charlotte George
went along as attendant for the sick

The Tkocheruko family reside near

but owing to high water they were un-
able to cross to the county seat.
Schafer, therefore the case was trans
ferred to Stark.
The unfortunate woman was not
violently insane and the cause of hel
arrangement is probably due to worry
over financial and other troubles. The
family are Galatians and have beer

The husband came as far as the city
with his wife and returned home from
here. There are several children in the
family ranging in ages from 6 years

Letter BY Zimmerman

Banker C. L. Zimmerman of Mandan
publishes an interesting letter ,'on his
recent trip from Stanton to the Kildeer
mountains. After passing.the Tom Far
rineton store and the John Henderson
place in the Knife river country. Mr..
Zimmerman narrates as follows:
Before leaving Golden Valley you find
a pleasant stopping place at David
Jutzler's. Genuine western hospitality
prevails in this home. A beautiful
grove surrounds the house and every
body works here. including little Nellie.
eight years old, who is as busy as she
can be.
Arriving at Geo. Bratzel's store you
will follow the main drive north up
Goodman creek valley about five miles.
turn to the left, pass the church with
the steeple sixty-two feet high, and
straight road leads you into Halliday.
Continue the same road west until you
reach Bailey postoffice, further you
strike the ranch of VIM. Connolly
where genuine western hospitality ex-
lists and bids you welcome. The dis
tance from Bailey to Oakdale. high up
in the Kildeer mountains, is Fl. go
miles. At Oakdale is well-stocked
store. They have tri-weekly mail from
Dickinson and good stage line to that
point and also good road. A short
climb takes you to the top of the Kill
deer mountain and you stand on the
highest point in Western North Dakota.
During the five days we were out it
was excessively hot in the sun but
cool breeze always prevailed. Forty
miles away the KiNeer mountains loom
up in the distancew After you reach
Oakdale, however. the height is not so
impressive as the store is up on one of
the shoulders of the mountain.
An enormous crop will be harvested
in Mercer and Dunn counties if proper
conditions prevail from now on. At
Mr.. Jutzler's we found red clover three
feet high in his front dooryard.
Many of the farmers in Dunn county
are from Wisconsin and know how to
farm. and do it.

SnURTllF'F MAKING RECORD
WITH HIS REEVES ENGINE

j. H. Shurtliff. who resides nine
miles northeast of Dickinson, has made
record with his new Reeves gas
engine that would be hard to beat. He
finished seeding 315 acres of flax on the
10th day of June. The work of break
ing, packing and drilling in the seed
occupied just nine days.
Heretofore the Reeves people have
only manufactured steam engines but
this season they constructed gas
engine and Mr.. Shurtliff was given The
first one made and naturally great
many people have been watching to
see how the new piece Of machinery
would work.
Mr.. Shurtliff had the help Of one
man. His wife ran the engine a part
of the time. Their days were fram
4 o'clock in the morning until At
night, and their average was IS acres
per day, and the blowing was well
done. The engine pulled eight break
ing plows, 1900 pound packer and a
seeder. The new Reeves at the Shurt-
LID. farm is q 40 horse power engine
and the owner believes that it is the
best breaking rig that has been shipped
into the country.
The fax was seeded before the rains
and is coming as nicely as any field of
Grain could. e
