It must be remembered that the fruit

soil will become hard and baked unless

Why Stars Twinkle,

The twinkling of the stars is chiefly
an effect produced in the atmosphere
upon the waves Of light 1t is due to
currents and strata Of air of different
densities intermingling and floating
past each other, through which the
light passes to the eye. 1t is seen
much more In cold than in warm
weather and nearer the horizon more
than overhead. The same effect may
be seer by looking out of a window
over a hot radiator or a candle held
on the other side of a hot stove, so
that you have to look through a body
of. highly heated air at the candle
fame. The fame will be e to
waver and culver. In other words.
the various layers Of air are at differ
ent densities and in motion, hence the

The RUSSELL WILL CASE
Mr.. SIMPSONS POSITION

The hearing upon the second trial in
the Daniel Russell case is now taking
place in Boston before the referee ap.
pointed by the court to take the testi-
mony in the case. N. L. Sheldon of
Boston and MI. Simpson of Dickinson.
who were the trial lawyers for Dakota
Dan in the first trial in Boston. do not
appear as counsel in the second trial.
The statement appearing in some of the
papers that Dan has paid to Mt. Simp-
son $27. 600 is excrutiatinelv funny to
Stark and Billings county people who
are acquainted with Dan. They cannot
credit the fact that Dan has made that
statement. 1t is a we'll known fact in
Stark and Billings county where Dan
was known. that he had no money to
put into the trial of his case and neith-
er did he have credit to procure the
money from any bank. Everybody
knows that Mr.. Simpson furnished the
money to finance the first trial of the
s and everybody knows that it was
q very expensive trial. More than
a year ago Mr.. Simpson and Mi. Shell
don advised Dan Russell, that they could
not finance a End trial of the case and
told MI. Russell that he would have to
make arrangements for other counsel.
Neither of his former counsel have de-
serted Dan. They simply withdrew
from the case because they were un-
able to continue in it longer without
compensation and Mr.. Simpson felt that
ne was not able financially to bear
the burden of the expense of a second
trial. In May this year, when the case
was set for hearing in Boston Mr..
Simpson at his own expense, made a
rip 10 Boston and had the matter con-
tinued in order to give Dan an oppor-
tunity to secure additional counsel and
Dan was advised by both parties at that
time that they would not appear in the
case.

10y PROF. c. B. wALDRON. North Da-

Since our windbreaks have become
Established we have not experienced
much difficulty in producing a good
crop Of Strawberries each year. Last
season there was no rain to speak Of
It'll after the fruit was ripe and yet
the yield was very good.
The strawberry requires q we'll

that is very weedy. especially that
containing fox tail and quack grass.
Set the plants in early spring. plant
ing them firmly with the roots spread
out and extending straight down and
the crown just at the surface Of the
ground. Give them plenty of room to
make cultivation easy and to allow
each plant a good share Of moisture.
We set u plants two by four feet
apart. If the soil is rather dry or
weedy keep all of the runners cut of
for the first seaso and make the Gull
tivation very thorough.
If the soil conditions are good about
three runners may be allowed for
each plant, training them along the
row 80 they will not interfere with
cultivation. In the fall after the
ground begins freezing cover with
three inches of straw that is free from
seeds of any kind. Take it from the
side Of the straw pile opposite from
where the machine stood. In the

ICEBERG GROUPINGS.
Clusters and Long Lines Formed by
Storms and Ocean Currents.

Clusters and Long Lines Formed by
Storms and Ocean Currents.
Among the perils and wonders Of the
ocean there are few more interesting
things than 1cebergs, interesting not
only by reason Of their gigantic size.
their fantastic shapes, their exceeding
beauty, but also for the manner where
in they array themselves.
1cebergs exhibit a tendency to form
both clusters and long lines, and these
groupings may arise from the effects
both Of ocean currents and of storms.
Some very singular lines Of bergs.
extending for many hundreds Of miles
east Of Newfoundland, have been
shown on official charts issued by the
government. Two of these cross each
other, each keeping on its independent
course after the crossing. In several
instances parallel lines Of bergs leave
long spaces of clear water between
them.
Curiously enough, while enormous
fields Of ice invade the so called
steamship lanes" Of the Atlantic at the
opening Of spring during certain years.
in other years at that season there is
comparatively little ice to be seen.
The ice comes, of course, from the
edges Of the arctic regions, from the
icebound coasts of Greenland and
Labrador. where huge bergs. broken
from the front of the glaciers at the
point where they reach the sea, start
on their long journeys toward the
south, driven by the great current
that flows from Bafin bay into the
northern Atlantic ocean. -Harper's
