There's nothing wrong about the name

more places of every editorial column of

did deliberately and with malicious in

The feeling of cordially between the

week. The cold wave reached Langdon
about the time the last issue of the
Moon arrived here from the end town.

to be almost as touc by a proposition in
1912 as they were two years ago.

The ub

The recent. warning given by our
Gate department to the president of
Cuba, coupled with the comment of
The American press to the effect that
II our soldiers ever again entered the
island il would be to stay. has. started
anew the discussion as to the ultimate
%anneXatian of the island to the United
States.
The writer has just talked to a gen
tleman WHO spent some Years in Hal
vana and who a v that educated
Cubans and Spaniards living in the
island regard annexation as inevitable.
For patriotic and precautionary rea-
sons they do not talk this openly, but
in confidence Il large part Of them ad-
NIT it as not only the logic of the sit
uation, but say that it is desirable.
Especially do the property owners
favor American occupation. Property
always wants d stable government,
and government in Cuba has proved
about as unstable as that in other
Latin American countries.
This gentleman also says our army
officers predicted at the time Of our
last intervention in Cuba that they
would be sent back in from one to ten
years and the next time they would
remain, which may explain the COM
ment in the newspapers already men
toned.
, The completion of the railroad to
Key West will have a bearing on the
situation. This represents one of the
greatest engineering feats of modern
times. The first train ran into Key
West only a few days ago. 1t brings
Havana to within ninety miles. which
can be covered by a ferry service.
A government bulletin just issued
shows that our trade with Cuba last
year amounted to $169,O0O,OOO, having
more than doubled in the eight years
since reciprocity went into effect. Our
exports to the island were $685. 900,
having trebled during this period, and
the imports were $4,000 900, having
doubled >in the same time. From the
Cuban end the United States is now
her chief customer, S5 per cent of her
export trade being with this country
and SO per cent Of her import trade.
This will be another influence for an
nexation.
Nevertheless the United States does
not want Cuba. Under the Platt
amendment we are in honor bound to
respect and maintain her independ-
ence. To bring her in against her will
would do violence to our principles of
government. Moreover. her anneXa-
ton would saddle us with her race
problem and other burdens. Only for
her W good and at her own request
could annexation ever be considered.

The agricultural college at Fargo has
during the week issued timely bulletin
that can be read with interest by far
mers of Cavalier county as we'll as else
where over the state. The kind of seed
bed desired depends upon the kind of
crop to be grown. The seed bed for
smaller seed needs to be finer, mellower
and more firm than the seed bed for
the larger seeds. In preparing
ground for alfalfa, for instance, it is
necessary TO put much more work upon
the land than If the ground is being pre-
pared Cor larger seeds. There are con
siderable advantages in securing q firm
seed bed in semi-arid regions. If the
apper 6 or s inches of soil is very moist
and open the ground will dry out more
readily than if the soil is compact. The
air, as it is forced in and out OF the
moist soil by wind currents or by other
means becomes a soil drying agency.
For each entrance and exit of tho dry
air, the soil loses moisture. Therefore
a compact seed bed is one safeguard
against loss Of moisture, 1t should not
90 forgotten, however. that the surface
hould be kept in a mulchy condition
to prevent the loss of moisture.
