London March l1th-Despatches from
Hobart, Tasmania, state Captain Amuudsen
left the Bay of Whales on October twentieth.
On December eighth he reached Shaekleton's
furthest South and on the fourteenth reach
ed o continental plateau extending indie
f%nitely in every direction, on the fifteenth he
approximated the South Pole, raised the Nor
wegian flag and named he plateau after
King Haakon. Observations taken through
three days fixed the position as individually
as possible with instruments. Excellent
weather was experienced with brillianG Sun.
The distance travelled was fourteen hun
dred kilometres at a. daily average of twenty
five kilometres going and thirty six return
ing. The expedition crossed mountains ex-
ceeding ten thousand feet, and saw others
of fifteen thousand feet, which were named
Queen Maud's Range the lowest temperature
experienced was fifty five degrees centigrade,
and at the Pole twenty three. En- the words;
of Capt Amundsen all went Ikea dance:
The expedition determined the extent and
character OF Ross's barrier and discovered 70
connection with South Victoria Land and
probably with Edward the Seventh Land
with a continuation in mountains ranging
probably across the Antarctic Continent for
eight hundred and fifty kilometres. King
George has cabled his congratulations, AMI
the Royal Geographical! Society, Sir Ernest
Shackleton and all experts accept the dig
coTery unreservedly, without surrenderiug
the hope that Captain Scott has also reach
cd the Pole, perhaps with Captain Ainund-
seny upon the theory that the latter is
silent because of q mutual engagement
that each should tell his own story i'll
his own time aud manner. Possibly the
Japanese expedition has also been success
tul.
A Christiani@ despatch reports tremendous
enthusiasm in Norway. King Haakon and
Queen Maui have cabled their congratula-
tons, the President of the Storthing made
an address expressive of the national pride,
celebrations have been held by the Univer-
sites, Geographical Societies and the Stock
Exchange. Decorations are general. and o
national subscription is being raised for q
North Pole Expedition.
On Friday their Maiesties held their first
court, mourning for the Duke of Fife having
expired, but as ali the Royalties we're In black
and the Court in half mourning the function
lacked its usual brilliancy.
On Saturday the King laid the foundation

USING THE MOISTURE THAT
FELL IN 1911.
BY THOMAS SHAW


1t is greatly to be regretted that in
the Dakotas and Montana $50 little
stubble land was plowed last autumn.
The rain that delayed harvest de-
layed the threshing also, and the de-
lay of both hindered the work of
blowing. Could the land generally
have been plowed last autumn. the
grain could have been sown early in
the spring. Sowing early the present
spring will almost assure a crop ON
autumn plowed land because of the
abundant moisture in the soil. Far
mers who have fall-plowed land.
should harrow or disc it at the earl
lest possible moment that 1t will do
to 60 on it in the spring, with view
to keep IN the moisture.
Land that is not plowed, especially
sod land, should be plowed at the
earliest possible moment. 1t should
be given a stroke of the harrow as
soon as it is plowed to keep in the
moisture and then sown as soon as
practicable. 1t is hardly necessary
to pack such land owing to it's moist
condition, if narrowed thus promptly.
Reasonably clean land plowed thus
early. should produce a good crop if
handled thus. The present is one of
the few years in which even in a nor
mally dry area it should be quite safe
to sow grain after grain. 1t is ALWAYS
hazardous in dry area to SOW grain
after grain, when soil and subsoil are
virtually devoid of moisture at the
time for sowing. On the other hand
ii should generally be safe to SOW
grain after grain when there is plenty
Of moisture in the soil at such time.
The moist condition of the soil should
make it possible to sow relatively
large area to grain the present season.
But farmers should beware of SOW
ing late. If. on looking over the till
able area which they have, they find
that they cannot get all the land sown
reasonably early, they should try to
disc that which they are not going to
sow at the earliest moment possible
and tn IN summerfallow it for the next
years crop. Of course, it may be sown
to flax as late as the Goth Of May, but
it will greatly aid III retaining mois-
ture, if it can be disced early. The
blowing may be done later.
If sod is to be broken. the work
should be done early if there is time
for it.. and the ground packed with
the disc and the harrow. If it can
not be plowed early it will, Of course,
do to pillow it in June.
The seeded land, except in the case
Of flax, should get one narrowing just
when the blades begin to show, and
one again when the grain is 5 to 8
inches high. In every reasonable way
that precious moisture should be
saved.

THIS ROAD WAS REPAIRED UNDER THD
STATUTE LABOR SYSTEM
each of the smaller units. In the pur-
chase Of supplies and equipment
large saving can be effected by CEN
tralization. while in the reduction Of
personnel and In Standardization of
methods and equipment still greater
economy results. 1t cannot full to i'm
press every thinking man that Il sys-
TEN Of extreme localization will mean
an entirely unnecessary multitude Of
officials and irregular and i'll directed
road Improvement.
1t Is apparent that the smallest unit
for effective control in the administra-
ton Vt road affairs Is the state, al
though excellent results have been OBJ
tained under county systems where all
the roads are placed under the jurisdic.
ton of competent and skilled high
way engineer or superintendent.
Our highway departments, both coun-
ty and state. should be entirely free
and away from political influences.
All road work should be placed In the
hands Of trained and experienced road
builders, and all road taxes should be
paid In cash. Road officials and care
takers should have sufficient compensa-
ton to justify them in devoting their
entire time and attention to the work.
Under such system properly admin
!stcred 1t will be possible to secure q
dollars worth Of work for every dollar
expended. which is certainly not the
case at the present time. except where
this plan has ;:.ready been adopted.

ed in all the states in the administra-
ton Of the public roads, and today this
policy prevails in d great majority Of
the. states, 1t places upon the county
and in most cases upon the road dis
eEictS or townships the entire burden
Of constructing and maintaining roads
and leaves to it the initiative as well
icy which shall be pursued in carrying
ON the work
Our road laws for the most part do
mot contemplate the necessity for skill
ed supervision in road work: hence
most Of tho work Is done under the
direction Of men who have no knOwl-
edge Of road building and who have
0hty passing interest init. This is a
situation which h truly amazing. for
skilled supervision is demanded in
practically every line Of work. To the
trained road builder It Ia evident that
NO more prolific source Of waste can
b found than In unskilled supervision.
There are. Including county and
township officials, at least Il hundred
Thousand road officials in tho United
0thtes> each exercising a practically
independent authority. Can we ex-
0ect efficiency In an army in which
al are officers and none Is the rank
