TESTS MANY GRAIN SAMPLES
Professor. Bolley Discusses Work oil
Agricultural College at Fargo
During the Past Year.

Professor Fl. L.. Bolley of the North
Dakota Agricultural college, at Fargo,
who was responsible for the pure seed
bill for the protection of the farmers
OF North Dakota, is pleased with the
interest shown in his department.
There have been 11,629 seed sam
pies tested and analysed by Profess
sors Stevens and Campbell, seed ex-
perts of my department." announced
Professor Bolley. These were all to
determine the fitness of the samples
for sowing purposes.
Seed inspectors collected 2,4OO
samples from grain elevators and
grain warehouses, while seed houses
voluntarily sent in LOO. The farm
ers sent over 5000 to the seed labor
atory. The inspectors also inspected
LIZ fields of seed grain at the request
of the owners. This is a new field of
effort in this state.
I'm addition to the pure seed labor
atory work and the department of
botany in connection with the ex-
pertinent station l have organized
quite an extensive branch of special
extension work for which the mailing
list has already reached 216,000. EN-
ployes OF the department are now
sending out about 25, 1000 four page cir
culars and $4,000 seed calendars.
Dn.ing the last biennial period this
department sent out 1~,28S,O0O bulle-
tirs, $4,000 circulars, dictated 1880
letters and received over 80, 200 letters
on l,iattcrs pertaining to the depart
ment. l am sure this is an indication
of a greatly aroused interest in better
seed grain.
These and many other matters are
being embodied in the biennial re-
port to the governor" concluded the
state grain expert.

OLSON GETS HIS CHECK BACK
Government Returns $1,000 Paid as
Duty by Cando Man.


A check for $1,000, secured about a
year ago by George w. Foulkes of st.
Paul, special agent of the customs de-
partment of the United States, from
Carl Olson of Cando, to cover duties
said to have been paid the government
on articles alleged to have been snug
gled from Europe by his father, G. H.
Olson, has been returned to him.
On the plea that the money was lille
gally extorted from Carl Olson and he
was not guilty of smuggling any arti-
cles or bringing any into this country
from Europe than those on which he
paid duty and which he was entitled
to bring in free of duty, Mr.. Olson Sc
cured from the customs department an
order which brought back the check.
G. H. Olson was in Europe when In
spector Foulkes made his visit to Can
do. From Carl Olson he secured a
check for $1,000 drawn in favor of the
customs department to duties
which was charged by the inspector
had been avoided by his father. When
the elder Olson returned from Europe,
he denied having struggled any arti-
cles into the country, and at once laid
his side of the case before the u
toms department, charging extortion
upon the part of the inspector.

received in deep silence, broken only
by suppressed sobbing of the wives of

The men were not charged actually
with causing explosions. The only
charges under which they could be

were conspiracy and illegal transpor-

ruled that evidence as to violence was
competent as showing motive.

-FOUR THOUSAND
FACTORIES IDLE
Army Of New York Garment
Workers on Strike.

New York, Dec. 31.-Men and
women garment workers, estimated in
number at 1875, 900, went out on strike
in New York, tying up approximately
1000 factories. They demand higher
pay and better working conditions.
Mass meetings of the strikers began
as early as 4 a. m. and at daylight,
in a drizzling rain, picket squads of
twelve had been posted at all the fac
tories affected. In each squad were
at least two women.
The strike is confined at present to
the makers of mems and boys cloth
ing. Of the $4,000 workers in this
industry there are about 10000 women.
1t was declared, however, that the
Ladies' Garment Workers union was
also at work organizing its forces for
the demand of an extension to other
branches of a peace agreement signed
two years ago, and that a strike of
10000 mor workers would be called
to enforce the demands.
An e%ight-hour day, 20 per cent in
crease in wages, with a minimum Of
$40 a week for girls and SIG for men,
abolition of child labor and work in
the tenements are the features of the
strikers demands. There have been
no organized negotiations with the
employers, as it is declared that they
refused to treat with the union. The
strike was decided upon by a vote in
which 10000 of the workers partici.
