MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 2.-Plans for
the immediate extension of the 500
line in North Dakota which includes
40 miles of road west from Plaza,
Montrail county, to the east bank OF
the Missouri river, are about to ma
terialize, according 70 a we'll founded
report, and the 500 will strike into
the new territory between the Great
Northern and the Northern Pacific
early in the fall.
Ryder, N. D., and Max, two stations
east of Plaza, report the passing
through there of engineering crews
bound west, and Plaza reports that
they are now located at Blacks ranch
on the Missouri river.
The building Of forty miles Of new
road by so big and strongly financed
a system as the 500 line would ordi-
narily be matter of importance only
to the territory affected. and would
have little significance in the big rail-,
road world. But If the 500 lays rails
this fall to Blacks ranch, it will prob
ably stop there only long enough to
bring up material and bridge the Mis-
souri, river. After that it would be .
seventy mile build to the Yellowstone
river at the Montana state line. II

PATTERSON NOT
BADLY INJURED

Treasurer

The main hall in the court house
was the scene Of mill yesterday
afternoon, wherein County Treasurer
kositzkv and Chairman Of County
Commissioners E. G. Patterson were
the principals.
Since the occurrence certain inter
ests have enlarged upon the subject
until the impression has gone forth
that Patterson is a fit subject for
the hospital and badly mutilated.
such being the case, Tribune re-
porter interviewed Mr.. Patterson and
two witnesses when the following
statements which are as straight a.
possible to get them, were brought
out:

ed telephone call to come to me

missioners' room, where ! met Coun-
ty Treasurer Kositzsy who was
standing near the door. He asked me
who tore the page out Of the 500
hotel register, and why the Palladium
had slandered his family. told him
it was none u his business, put my
hands in my pocket, and turned to
enter the comm ssioners' room. "
At this point, witnesses say, the
treasurer struck Mr.. Patterson blow
in front of the ear, which staggered
him, then giving him another In the
right eye which felled him. Kositzsky
kicked Patterson in the back Of the
head, landed upon his PROSTATE form
and began pounding him with both
fists. Patterson defended himself as
best he could which prevented the
fast-coming blows doing any injury.
Justice Pierce who happened to his
present and intervened, separating
the men. Patterson scrambled to his
feet and took q swipe at K0sit1ky,
whereupon the latter called to have
Patterson arrest, d.
After the melee Mr.. Patterson On.
tered the commissioners room and
proceeded with his business, appar
emily none the worse for the encoun-
ter. Today he Is going about his
business with but two slight bruises
which are hardly noticeable, and
which bear testimony to the exas.
gerated reports that he was pounded
to q pulp.

Use Of irrigation.

The amount Of water used In differ

much water few II any seem to fully
understand. The fact is most people
use three or four times more water
than is necessary and do a good deal
of harm to their soil and also to the
crop by an unbusinesslike and really
ignorant use Of valuable quantity.

Guilty Is encountered In securing 1t.
The seed. therefore. should be tested
by placing In pan Of damp soil in q
warm place to determine how much
will germinate. II less than 80 per
cent good seed is found. either better
seed should be secured or . larger
amount In proportion to the quality
should be planted.
The seed bed should be in tho best
condition. for the sprouts Of soy beans
arc very tender and any obstacles
such as Jumps. stones or crust on the
surface Of the ground will materially
impede the growth. Seed should be
planted from one inch to ono and one
half inches deep in the heavier soils.
and two to two and one-half inches
deep In sandy soils. Water should be
applied before planting. so that a
crust will not form after the seed has
been planted. This Is important.
Soy beans may be planted In rows
two and one.half to three feet apart.
or may be drilled or broadcasted.
writes Rev. f. Willard in the Indiana
Farmer. Planting In rows and culti-
waiting will give the best result In seed.
but for feeding purposes. the entire
ground may be covered. When plant.
Ing In rows. about sixty pounds per
acre will give good results. II planted

$50 pounds. should be sown. The
roots OF soy beans are not deep. usual.
ly not more than thirty inches. SO that
frequent shallow irrigations are pre-
ferred to heavy irrigations and at long.
er intervals. This Is usually true II
the crop Is planted In rows. This
should be done two or three times dur
ing the early part Of tho growing sea.

form and to keep out weeds. It will
be found most beneficial to cultivate
AZ soon as thazsoil Is dry enough after

tho soil. II properly handled It should
leave the soil In better condition than
before. This II particularly true Of
sandy soil. which is generally truo of
what deficient In nitrogen. The crop
usually does well on the higher soils
as compared with the heavier soils.
Soy beans mature in from 80 to lis
days. They may be planted at any
time after the danger Of the last kill.
ing frost is passed. Slightly more
than thirty bushels Of seed to the acre
were produced on soil where the seed.
ing was about sixty pounds to the acre

Rabbits and gophers are particular

there is danger from these pests. 1t
