ST. Thomas.

Grafton.-Terrific damage over 9
wide strip of country was wrought by
hail storm which swept from north.
east to southwest with st. Thomas as
the center Of the storm belt. It ia
the second storm to hit that district
his year.
A bad wind storm which at times
reached cyclonic proportions was re.
ported west Of Hensel, and consider
able property was destroyed.
The farm territory about three miles
north of Hensel was also visited by
hail storm. but the extent of the
damage cannot be learned as tele.

cured In that vicinity. 1t was report
ed that there were bad storms all
along the line to -Glasston and Hamil.
ton, but the telephone lines were out
OF order and nothing could be learned
regarding it.
/: The st. Thomas hail storm did the
greatest damage, wiping out the crops
and doing big damage in the town.
Practically all of the windows in St.
Thomas were broken by the hailstones,
while the wind worked havoc with
some OF the poorly constructed build.
lngs. The roof of the livery barn was
blown off and several other buildings
were blown down. A number of gran.
aries on farms in that territory were
also blown over. The hailstones meas.
ured about three inches and a half in
diameter.
The storm cut swath about ten
miles wide and fifteen miles long. II
started at point about seven miles
northwest of st. Thomas and swep,
straight east for short distance
when 1T turned to, the south It trav

then swerved east again, ending at 6
point about nine miles southeast Of
st. Thomas.
The WindstOrm west of Hensel was
one of the worst that section of the
state has had. 1t was reported as 8
terrible cyclone which left a number
OF overturned barns and granaries in
Its wake. On the Joe Simonson farm
located about seven miles northwest
OF Hensen, the barn was blown over

hip had been dislocated. The horses

Keep Hope Alive.

Never abandon hope. Remember
that no earnest effort is ever lost. Get
away from the habit of looking on the
dark side. Nothing will so complete
ly paralyze the creative power of the
mind as dark, gloomy, discouraged
mental attitude. 1t keeps multitudes
OF people from obtaining the very
things they most desire.

DAKOTA BOYS IN CAME.
Youthful TiIiers Of Soil Live In Army
Tents.

Fargo.-The desire to learn to swim
often expressed by the farm boys of
North Dakota, but sometimes not rea.
lized because OF the distance from any
large body of water, is being gratified.
One hundred young farmers were in
military camp at the North Dakota
state fair In Fargo and received swim
ming lessons.
Not only did they learn to swim.
but they went through army Setting
up" exercises every day and did a
number of military maneuvers. Every
day speaker Of note addressed them
on agricultural topics.
A camp of so tents was established
at the fair. grounds, and an officer
from the regular army was in charge.
1t is proposed to bring 100 boys from
farms In the state to the fair each
year.

It was ten o'clock on Saturday

the typewriter.
Suddenly the door was cautiously
opened and an anxious face inserted
itself in the aperture. Satisfied that
the coast was clear and that he was

Much to the delight of alfalfa
enthusiasts and Lennon and
surroundings are full of these

specialist of the S. ID. agriculture
al college, arrived on the scene

their deadly work on those in
these parts who as yet are free
from the alfalfa malady.
The afternoon was spent in
properly planting by the aid of
the machine some 5000 lusty
young plants. The machine con-
SistS of a cutting edge, which
burrows a groove into the soil,
Immediately after this is the duet
that feeds in a plant; mechanic
ally a small quantity of water is
at the same time injected, to
nelp pack the ground and give
the plant some moisture for i'm
mediate use. A set of cutters
closes the groove and packs the
ground behind the plants.
In addition, Prof. Hanson COM
missioned several boys to go up
onto hills nearby and to plant
promiscuously here and there
alfalfa shoots. This planting
was done by simply prodding a
hole in the ground with a crow
bar, and then closing the hole up,
after the young plant was prop
erly set in. Prof. Hanson claims
that his plants are so hardy that
they will hold their own against
the sod.
The varieties planted are both
the hardy Cherno and SemiDola
tinsk strain, the former bloom
ing yellow and blue, the latter
yellow. Both have their home!

temperatures vary much more
than in the western Dakotas, ant

point which he claims for his
planting method, is that it mini,
mizes the danger from the chief,

the deadly dodder plant, a para
site which when once extant IN

growth.
Several farmers who were so
fortunate as to be about when
