a surprise party on Thanksgiving
night, when a host of young friends

At first the family thought only a

thanksgiving, but much to their sur

large number were present.
After the dominos had performed
some anxious stunts" which were all
Guessed, they unmasked and INDUCED
in games of all kinds until late hour
when refreshments were served, and
in the wee small hours Of the morn
ing all dparted for their homes.
The party was a complete surprise
to the friends, as it was 70 the family,
and as no one knew who had planned
the happy occasion, they decided to call
it mysterious Thanksgiving Masque-
rada surprise party.

John Rogich, is now in Australia.
Hattie Deitz is the wife of John
Deitz.
The county board of Sawyer county,
the district attorney said, believed
that the law was being vindicated

Machine to Separate
Wild Oats on Market

In view of the fact that the wild
oats among grain has become detri-
ment to farmers throughout this
country, it will be OF greeat interest
to all farmers to learn that there is
machine on the market now known
as the Holland Wild Oats Separator
that will perfectly separate wild oats
from all grain, tame oats as we'll as
wheat, flax, rye and barley.
This machine has been highly en-
dorsed by Prof. H. l.. Bolley, states
seed commissioner, of the agriculturaE
college at Fargo, and also by profes-
sonal agriculturists in other states
Mr.. P. G. Davidson, of Valley City, has.
the exclusive sale of these machines,
for Barnes county and has two car
loads of them already shipped to him
They can be had at small cost anN
no doubt many will be wanting them
to clean their seed rye this fall or
prepare their seed grain for next
year. There is only certain limited
amount of them for each county. Al
though the factory is putting them
out on large scale the demand for
them will be so great that those in
terested should order early.

small tree in particular yielding a
half bushel of fine apples. Mr.. Jacobs

When seeds are found to produce we'll

planting home grown seed.
This institution has grown, with the

hundreds of thousands of packages an

kotas and Minnesota from the ware

Grown by Experts.
The entire seed producing station
is necessarily conducted along the
most advanced scientific lines and
under expert supervision. Before any
of the seeds are planted they are test
ed by the company and samples are
also sent to the state seed commits
sioner, who makes similar tests. II
they stand the tests to the satisfact ton
of both they are then planted to as
certain what they will produce in this
section of the country. When they
show by their fruits that they are
particularly adopted to the soil and
climate they are then catalogued and
grown for the market.
The farmer Or gardner receiving thg
little packages of seed with a bright
label thinks little of the care and at
tention they have received. It is a.
commercial proposition with him
they must show results, and the re-
suits are only obtained after tedious 7
experiment on the part of the seed
grower. So the development has
gone on, unobtrusively, the little plot
of ground of the Northern Nursery
company contributing a lions share
toward the growth and prosperity OF
the great Northwest.

MAN WHO OBTAINED FUNDS FOR

Special to the Times Record.
Fargo, N. D., Sept. 17.-Congress-
man L. B. Hanna has gone to Mandan
to deliver an address at the Slope
fair, which begins today. Mr.. Hanna
was specially invited to speak at the
fair in recognition of the fight he
made. in congress for the appropria-
tion for the government agricultural
experiment station near that city. It
was long drawn out fight, other con-
gressmen fearing that the appropria-
ton would set a precedent opening
wide the doors for all experimental
stations to beseige congress for as
.sistance out, of the ordinary aid given
the agricultural stations.
The Slope fair promises to be one
of the biggest events in the state,
with the exception of the North Da-
kota Industrial Exhibit to be held in
Bismarck, and it was considered fit
ting that Congressman Hanna, who
carried on the successful fight alone
for the assistance of the Mandan ex-
perimental. station, should speak to
and personally meet the many who
will enjoy the benefits Of the big sta
tion. ,- g.. ..~..--.
Congressman Hanna is much re-
freshed by good rest in Maine, after

regained his health. In all probabil-
ity he will make his plans for conduct

SEED GARDEN IN VALLEY CITY
IS BUILDER OF VAST EMPIRE
Northern Seed Company, Through Experimental
Plot Has Contributed Great Share In
Developing Great Northwest

Among the various factors that
build up a country none are more i'm.
portant than the distributors of seeds
1t is the plant life that gives vitality
to a community. James A. Hill has
rightly been called an Empire build
er but there must be cultivation of
the soil, husbandry and the sowing of
seeds to make the narrow parallel of
two steel rails commercially profit
able. Production and transportation
are the two elements inseparable in
empire building and the Northern
Seed company, of Valley City, has
contributed a big share towar1 con-
verting the prairies of the great
Northwest into region of homes and
prosperous contentment.
The seed industry is one that at
tracts little attention, except when
the descriptive catalogues are distrib-
uted. Selections of seeds are made,
ordered and planted, and then the
seed man is forgotten while the crops
grow to furnish food and clothing Snd
shelter for the dependent. civilization.
Seed Garden Unnoticed.
At the outskirts of Valley City the
Northern Seed company has plot OF
ground, passed daily by hundreds un-
noticed. But that plot furnishes sus-
tenance for the body and money for
the purse for the empire of the North:
west. There are now maturing on
that plot 468 varieties of seeds, vast
galaxy of vegetables, hubers, garden
truck, grasses, grain provinder and
flowers.
The government and state agricul-
tural schools and experimental sta
tions do much to advance rural indus
try but the seed distributors do more.
The seed man is in the business to
make it commercially profitable and
must grow the best, suitable to eli
mate and soil, to distribute among
their patrons. Seed that does not l ro-
duce quality and quantity would soon
put the seed house out of business, so
the best must be grown to hold pat
ronage. To accomplish this it is nee
essary for the seed man to do his
own experimenting before placing the
seeds on the market.
Must Suit Soil and Climate.
The Northern Seed company has
been doing this and in manner diff
ferent from methods adopted by gov
ernmental institutions. Their seed is
planted and grown in the same man
