Home Economics.

1CS Home Economics.
= An exhibit of home economics will
illustrate the carrying on of the diff
ferent operations in the home as well
as planning and the equipping of the
home, dressmaking, millinery, cook
ing, home sanitation, food preserva-
tion, modern conveniences, etc.
Chemistry.
One car will contain exhibits of
the Investigations carried on by the
chemistry department and will cover
such subjects as food value and COM
position of stock foods fertility re-
moved by different crops, formation
of soils, alkali soils, flax poisoning,
feeding value of screenings, varie-
ties of wheat and -four made from
them, exhibits of fake medicines,
"booze" medicines, patent medicines,
poisonous drugs, etc.
Horticulture.
Another car will show a complete
exhibit of the growing of trees,
fruit and vegetables for North Da-
kota. This will give an opportunity
of learning the best trees to plant,
the varieties of vegetables and how
to handle them, the kinds Of fruit
and how to make them producce.
A Comprehensive Exhibit.
From this it is plain that this
train will be the most comprehensive
which has ever been attempted, as it
covers every phase of farm and home
activities. The formation and ex-
hibits will be the most reliable, as
those who have prepared them are
the best authorities in their respec-
tive lines. Everybody ought to at
tend this train and learn the magni-
tude of the different things that are
carried on by the farmer and his
family, as well as to get an idea of
the immense amount of investigation
and knowledge there is on these sub
jects.
There win be six lectures given in
each car at each town, so no one
will be able to take in all the lee
lures, but by having program,
which can be secured at your town,
one can pick out those lectures in
which he is most interested and thus
be able to get the most out of these
splendid exhibits and lectures.

and farmers institute combined will
be at jamestown Saturday afternoon,
June Is, from until 5 O'Clock, states
Secretary Chas. F. Rathman, who
received word to that effect from
Supt. T. A. Hoverstad Friday. The
time is especially satisfactory for
this city and large attendance from
all over the county is assured. No
one can afford to miss visiting the
train.
Supt. T "A. Hoverstad of the Farm
Institute department of the N. D. A.
c., Fargo, has just returned from st.
Paul, where he has made the final ar
rangements with the Northern Pa
cific railroad in regard to the farm
ers' institute train. The railroad.
officials are doing everything in their
power to furnish the cars and such
other equipment as they have which
will make this the finest train ever
attempted.
The different departments at the
agricultural college will equip the
train. There will be nine exhibition
cars which will be equipped by the
dairying, home economics, engineer
ing, poultry, chemistry, botany, agri-
culture, veterinary and horticulture.
The heads of the departments will be
in charge of their respective cars.
Their assistants will also be along to
assist in the work.
President Worst and Professor
Shepperd will also be on the train
and take part in the instruction to
be given.
The financing Of the train is some-
what of a complicated affair, as the
farmers Institutes arewithout funds.
BY the following plan, however, the
train is made possible: The Northern
Pacific railroad will furnish the cars
and convey them over their lines
the agricultural college will provide
the exhibits and lectures-the towns
will help pay the running expenses
and the farmers institute to SUPER
intend the train.
The train will stop at those towns
on the Northern Pacific railroad
which have paid their proportionate
share of the running expenses. The
towns have been very prompt in re-
spending to this call, so that the
train will stop at jamestown and
many other towns on the Northern
Pacific lines.
Poultry.
A car will be devoted to the poul-
try exhibit, which will include a COM
plete poultry plant built on fiat car.
A flock of chickens will inhabit the
plant, which will contain all the mod
ern conveniences that have been
found advantageous to the carrying
on of successful poultry plant.
There will also be brooders, incu-
bators and other interesting exhib-
it's.
Live Stock.
The live stock car will contain fine
types of draft horses, beef cattle,
dairy cows and hogs and sheep. The
instruction will call attention to the
value of these different kinds of
stock, their feeding, care, etc.
Dairying.
The dairy exhibit will contain many
of the latest appliances that have
been found successful in the produc-
tion Of sanitary milk and at the least
expense. Silos will also be included
and information given as to their use
etc.
Veterinary.
The veterinary exhibit will include
those things which demonstrate how
IN boon man and heast healthy and

A LIVELY CAMPAIGN.

A thousand mile campaign on
horseback is under way in Stutsman
county, where the contest between the
two Republican candidates for nom
ination as clerk of court, Jesse Gran
and A. H. Sherman, will also decide
the supremacy of the horse or auto.
Mr.Sherman is campaigning over the
county in a new automobile, while
Mr. Gran is making his visits in the
saddle. BY June 26th, primary elec-
tion day, Mr.. Gran will have ridden
approximately 1000 miles, averag-
ing nearly 80 miles on horseback
per day. Gran, who was forced to
retire from railroading when he lost
his arm in a hunting accident at Mott
this spring, states he is developing
into long distance equestrian, and
his steed, wiry little western bron-
cho, tires sooner than the rider now
adays. Gran is making practically
house to house campaign and states
his candidacy is being very favora-
bly, received. He has ridden over
the country tributary to Cleveland
and Medina, visited Marstonmoor,
Deer Lake, Crystal Lake, Wood
worth, Eldridge, and many other
places already, and finds that while
in northwestern Stutsman crops are
backward in spots, yet every farmer
is very optomistic over the prospects.
But little fax remains to be seeded.
The campaigner reports practically
every farmer diversifying. They
are sowing potatoes and corn, put
ting in barley, oats, speltz and fax;
much of the corn is already up.
Nearly every farm now has it's cows,
there are lots of pigs and thousands
of little chickens.
PIANOFORTE RECITAL.
An appreciative audience heard the
pianoforte recital given by the pupils
of Miss Iva Cobb at the Methodist
church Monday evening, when a pro-
gram of over thirty numbers and en-
cores was, rendered with excellent
execution and effect by the youngmu-
sicians. Those participating were
