TWO TEACHERS
ADDED TO FORCE
Increase in School Enroll
rnent Makes Larger
Corps Necessary.

The rapidly growing city school
enrolment made it necessary during
the past few days to add two new
teachers to the already large teaching
force: An additional grade has been
added at both the Belmont and Roos-
evelt schools, and teachers have been
secured for them. Miss Margaret
Conklin is teaching the new grade at
the Belmont school. while Miss Ellen
Hungerford is in charge of the new
grade at the Roosevelt school.
While a check is being made on the
enrolment in the various schools, it
has been impossible to complete 1t.
Preparations were made for an in
crease in the number Of pupils at
tending school. but it was not realized
that the number would be SO much
greater. Several Of the rooms are
still in a very crowded condition. and
1t is expected that two or three more
teachers will be added before very
long. Several other changes are be-
ing contemplated. but nothing definite
can be announced until they are made.

-. y
Clearer and Warmer Wealth
er Predicted-D Damage in
Western Part of State.

With the storm center safely away
from North Dakota, Prof. Howard E.
Simpson. in charge of the weather sta
ton at the university, predicted this
afternoon that there would be a
change for the better during the night.
He said the rapidly rising barometer
indicated a clearing up, which had
already commenced this afternoon. He
further predicted that the ,thermome-
ter would begin to rise some. time to-
morrow.
AS far as can be learned this after
noon, 1t has been .storrning to the west
and north Of here during the greater
western part Of the state yesterday.
and continued during the night and
the greater part of today. The sec-
tons north OF here were visited by
snow and high winds today:
Reports could be received from on
ly a few. places In the state. as tele-
phone service has been badly crippled
during the day. 1t was impossible to
get in telephone: communication with
Lake and Pembina this afternoon.
At Hoople a: fall of three or four
inches of snow was reported, while
Minot reported another heavy snow
storm.
The following special regarding
storm conditions was received from
Fargo:
"A heavy snow fall was reported
last night throughout the western por-
ton Of North Dakota, the heaviest fall
being west Of the Missouri river. Gov.
erins the entire state from. north to
south. The condition on the farms in
the western portion of the state is seri-
Gus. owing to the need Of help. Much
fax and wheat is still unthreshed. and
many fields IRE even u~nshocked: The
loss 10 likely to be considerable
Bismarck reported the = greatest
amount of precipitation today. .78 be-
ing registered there. Williston report
ed a precipitation of, .12. i.
In speaking of the storm conditions
this afternoon, Prof. Simpson said:
THE storm passed to the south of
us yesterday, the storm center passing
along the. South Dakota line. It is
probably centered just south OF the
great lakes region today, reaching that
place this morning.
1.-THE wind has shifted to the north
west. The velocity was IS miles an
hour this morning. but 1t has dropped
this afternoon to about 25.
1.-THE chances r we'll receive no
more snow for awhile. The barometer
has been rising rapidly. and it will
probably clear tonight. I don't look
for a higher temperature tomorrow
morning, but 1t will probably warm up
toward evening. I don't look for deep
snow or hard winds. now that the
storm center has passed"

actually IN court for nine years. II

late Sebe Gavin. a negro, to a planta
tion in the CIiftonville neighborhood,
which deed was signed by the late A. C.

such fraud by the grantee. The suit

mony were taken.

FROM THE AGRICULTURAL coM'R
What An Acre Of Prairie Land Raised In
Truck.

Mr.. o. B. Sullivan. who lives one
mile east Of Cliftonville, has very kind.
" given me a report on one acre Of
land he worked this year. This land,
or part of it, was heavily sodded IN
bermuda grass for years. It was bro
ken up late in the spring, and to INV
knowledge was a very discouraging
prospect for vegetables. think most
OF US would have given un in despair
This Is very clear demonstration that
the prairie lands are good for vegetables;
and it is also proof positive that there
is little money in other crops besides
our good but much abused cotton crop.
l am not writing this preface to this
report to try to change you from cot
ton farm to q fliarketer of vegeta-
bles. Very few would succeed at it:
but you should realize that your lands
are worth more to you than many are
getting for them. Cotton is the
South's leading money crop and will re-
main so. Some will do we'll growing
beef cattle, others will succeed dairy
farming, some will make money grow
ing hogs, the county will realize good
money from hay-every ton, though,
should be fed to cattle, horses and
sheep at home-but a large percentage
of the farmers are going to look to
cotton for money. 1t is your best crop
If handled properly and it will always
be so. You can make money out of it
or you can be put out of business
that's up to you.
Mr.. Sullivan's garden plot is IS x 80

and one or two fig trees.
