FIELD CROP
/ Or SEEDC CROP
INSPECTION
EAg--,a
Prof. H. L. Bolley Conducting
New Experiment
First Time This Work Has
Been Done IN Northwest
Farmers Fields VIII Be In
spected and Marked

The department Of botany of the
agricultural college, under the direc-
tion of Prof, H. L. Bolley, is at pres
ent conducting field crop inspection
work. This is the first of this kind
of work that has been done anywhere
in the northwest for the particular
purpose. The object Of the work is
to gain information regarding growers
of pure bred or high class seed, and
to help them develop such types Of
seed.
The pure seed division of the depart
ment is in cooperation with a num-
Der of growers who have agreed to
plant seed plots in a manner recon-
mended by the department, and to use
the types of. seed recommended, prop
erly graded, treated and selected
All those farmers who notify the
department in time, that they are
growing variety of any kind of high
class seed for sale as seed, may have
their fields inspected during the time
the grain is in head or before it is
threshed from the shock. The purpose
Of this inspection is to conduct rigid
examination as to. purity and type of
the grain, and to give any information
that the inspector is able to give re-
garding the proper method of saving
the seed so that it will meet the re-
qurements of the seed law.
The last legislature enacted a law
which authorized the pure seed de-
partment to carry on such field crop
inspection. 1t also authorizes the
state seed commission to make ar
rangements to place such seed in
bags under lead seal, either as "certi-
Or S-{n
seed" Anyone who has raised seed
for sale and wishes to have it certified
or registered, should correspond with
the state seed commissioner.
No seed will be sealed unless it is
essentially free from, other varieties
Of the same kind of seed-for instance
Bluestem must be Bluestem and not a.
mixture of Bluestem and Fife -
Kubanka durum must be Kubanka,
not Kubanka and Bluestem or some
other variety.
When seed grain is sealed in this
manner 1t becomes a standard product
and may change hands any number
of times and still reach the final user
In such form that he may be sure
that. he has procured the seed that
the grower claimed to have raised.
No pedigreed seed will be sealed ex-
cept that the crop be inspected in the
field and tested in the pure seed
laboratory.
The department will publish lists of
all growers of reliable seed, which will
be sent to any applicant This will
be Of particular advantage to the
seedsmen Of the state in building up
a trade in seeds Of high class
On account of the absolute necessity
of having good fax and barley seed
in order to get a good crop, the de-
partment is paying especial attention
to these crops.
Professor Bolley wishes to hear from
any grower or pure bred seeds of any
kind and make arrangements for
proper inspection and sealing. No
grain will be sealed after March 1 of
any wear.

FISHING GOOD AT LAKES
Rainy Weather Did Not Stop Enthusi
asts and Many Good Strings
Were Caught,

Despite the rainy weather Saturday,
there were a large number Of Fargoans
who went down to the lakes over Sun
day. Detroit got a large number and
great many went on to Perham for
the excellent fishing. Many were the
fishing stories that were heard on the
streets this morning. Probably one of
the best catches was made by A. A.
Dustey of the A. L. Moody store. Mr..
Dustey was at Grand View Heights,
Big Pine lake, near Perham, and says
that the twenty-five fine pike he had
in his grip were all caught by him
Saturday evening and yesterday after
noon.
Roy Farmer Of the North Dakota
Improvement Co. was also at Grand
View Heights and had excellent luck
with the rod and reel. He says that
he took the limit and would have liked
to have stayed for few more days
Among the ladies. Mrs. A. H. Erick-
son of Moorhead and Mrs. Mallon Of
Perham were the best fishers. They
were in party of seven who went out
on Little Pine Saturday night and
brought in ninety-seven of the finest
pike.
Fishing is very good for this time of
year and those who were at the lakes
yesterday report good catches.

old FORUM HAD
HISTORY OF "Y''
PAPER TELLING OF THE ESTAR-
LISHMENT OF THE Y. M. C.. A.,
FOUND YESTERDAY - ROBERT
WEIDENSALL WAS THE FIRST
ORGANIZER.

A paper which settles for all time
the history of the establishing Of the
Y. M. c. A. was found by Charles
Foster yesterday in the house which
was formerly occupied by Major Ed
wards on Seventh street south. The
paper was issued Dec. 10, 1881
and continued a notice of a meeting
to be held that day of citizens to meet
Robert Weidensall and lay plans for a
city Y. M. G. A.
Just who was responsible for the
local association has never been
known. Several members of the ma
tional committee who were active at
that time have stated that they did
not know just who established the as
sociation here. Robert Weidensall de-
serves this honor, which is but one
of many which have come to the now
venerable old man who is the idol OF
the Y. M. G.. A. everywhere. Robert
Weidensall established the railroad Y
M. C. A, the industrial work and late
ly in spite of his extreme years ne
became pioneer in the county work. a
great conference hall lately built at
Lake Geneva has been made for him.
Now that it is positive just who
established the Fargo Y. M. c. A. steps
will probably be taken to associate
Mr.. Weidensall's name with the local
building and to issue a complete his
tory of the association.

AAKER Tells OF
The STENOIYPE

Prof. H. H. Aaker returned last
evening from the live wire conven-
tion of stenotypists at Indianapolis,
Ind. Some $50 schools out of some 800
teaching stenotypy were represented
and the enthusiasm ran high School
proprietors and teachers were loud in
their praises of the stereotype and it's
possibilities.
The stereotype is a machine by
means of which dictation is recorded
just as it is received in shorthand,
except that the work is done by the
operator on machine instead of with
pen or pencil.
The stereotype is operated like the
typewriter. 1t has twenty two keys
by which it is possible to express in a
stenotypic code any of the sounds of
the English language. The speed of
the machine is wonderful-up to 500
words have been written in a minute.
