Hon. j. NJ. Devine, member of the
Normal School Board of Control from
:Mlnot, was visitor at the school on
Wednesday and addressed the assem- bly,
at IL o'clock, speaking on the Educa-
tionu and Material Advancement in
North Dakota. His address was listen

teresting but instructive as we'll. The
prospective teachers know entirely too
little of what hopes have been blasted
and what others have been realized in
the making of North Dakota history.
He lectured to "a large audience during

FARMERS WANT ROAD FIXED
Believe County Should Grade Road
From Hubbard Line Into County.

Some of the farmers who live in
the vicinity of Nary, in Hubbard
county are of the opinion that II the
county would cut road, which is
now mere trail for stretch Of two
miles, running along the southern
line of Beltrami county, it would be
the means of considerable additional
business for Bemidji.
Some of the farmers who live in
that section and to whom it would
probably prove advantageous are J.
Oftedahl, LIZA Boobar, Alex Hensley,
B. J. Tollefson and ]. Baumgartner.
In speaking of the new proposition,
Mr.. Oftedahl said. "There is a lot of
trade 1 believe this city would get,
which they are not now getting, if
this road would be built. At present
we are crossing the wods on trail.
which is winding and hardly passable
and it would take very little expense
to put it into first class shape"

Editors Enjoy Banner Outing.

The members of the Northern Min

the finest outing in the history of the
association at .Bemidji and Red Lake
on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
The Bemidji people were more than
lavish in their hospitality an the edi-
tors were treated like princes. The
visits to the territory surrounding Be-
midi and to the Red Lake country
was an eye opener to even the most
optimistic Northern Minnesota boost

ed resources, agriculturally and

Mr.. Mackenzie adds that he and
President G. NJ. King and Vice Presi-

"The meeting consisted Of about

dressing himself to the subject on
which he was supposed to speak, he
devoted half his time to boosting his
home town of Rochester, and invited
the convention to come there at its
next meeting. The other half was an
uncalled for, violent attack on the
northern part of the state, in which
he not only deprecated that portion
of the state, but used language which
no gentleman would under the cir
cumstances have used.

AGE AVERAGES ABOUT 50 YEARS
Lands in Beltrami, Cass, Hubbard and
Clearwater Counties Visited
Valuable to Farmers.
GOOD FOR CORD WOOD ONLY NOW
While in rs Years Can Be Manufac.
tured into Lumber at Substan-
tial Gain for Homesteader. -

Young Timber in Cass, Beltrami,
Hubbard and Clearwater has been
examined during the past in order to-
ascertain the value now and what it
will be in rs or 80 years.
LATE Johnson, district fire ranger,
accompanied by Ernest BUTLER, of the
state forester's office, had charge of
the work.
The method followed by Mr.. John
son was to cut three trees on quar-
ter of an acre of land to be exam
ined, take the age of each tree, by
counting the number of rings, then
to take an average of the three
trees for an estimate on the entire
grove.
Mr.. Johnson in speaking of the in
veGtigation said today: " :
'These young trees will grow 800
feet to the acre per year, this means
that in thirty years, these same trees
will have brought 5000 additional
feet of lumber to the owner. -.
I'm my opinion large portion of
the land on which these young trees
are growing is not worth more to the
average farmer, as farm. land. then
would be the gain; by selling the tim
Der, which is not good for more than
cord wood now, in thirty years for
lumber
''The ranger stated that most of
the young white pine inspected was
on an average about 33 years old, and
that the land on which a good deal
of this tree was growing of rather
rich soil, good for growing crops.
There is white pine, he said, about
100 years of age. The average jack
pine is about the same, the Oldest
being about IS.
'The life of tree" said Mr.. john
son, 'sis lot like that of human be-
ing. It has it's growing period, the
period when it arrives at it's great
est strength and it's old period, dur
ing which it gradually loses strength
and value"

QUEST FOR OLDEST. WAGON: J.
Venerable Vehicles Located THAI
Have Been Used SO Years.

Away back in 1865, ty-eight
years ago, Dave Clark of Gileneton,
Wis, bought farm wagon. The civil
war was over. Mems minds turned
to thoughts of peace and the country
was trying to forget the throes Of
the conflict by sturdily endeavoring
to conquer the agricultural POSSIBLE
ties of the Northwest. Mr.. Clark
purchased his wagon from the stude-
aker agent at Gileneton, Wis, drove
it out to his farm and from that day
to this that faithful old wagon has
been hauling Mr. Clark's grain and
potatoes and truck to market. Fig
uring that a working year contains
300 days, Mr.. Clark's wagon has been
working for 14,400 days, and, allow
ing ton to the load, it has hauled
like number of tons for, its owner,
over good roads and bad, through
winter storms and summer heat.
( This remarkable story of a farm
wagon was unearthed by the House of
Studebaker when it was decided to Of
fer prizes to the owners of the Oldest
Studebaker wagons. Studebaker pub
fishes an almanac. which has ire
mendous circulation among the farm
ers of the United States, and page
was devoted to explaining that. as the
house has been building wagons for
over half q century. It would be in
teresting to learn whether any old
wagons had survived the wear and
tear Of years and service, and to slim
ulate interest a series Of PRIZES was
offered. .S.5 <@..

He URGES HOME PATRONAGE

BuefOrd M. Gle, BemidjIS new
head Of the agricultural department
at the high school, and who entered
upon his new duties a week ago, is
getting down to work in earnest.
Already Mr.. Gile has met many of
the farmers of the surrounding coun-
try, has visited the stores of the city
and has taken keen interest in the
Bemidji Creamery and in the grade
of cattle farmers are bringing into
the county. In an interview this
morning Mr.. Gile said: q
"The agricultural resources Of the
country around Bemidji are waiting
to be developed. The most profitable
farming and at the same time the
basis of permanent agriculture and
soil fertility must be based on live
stock. -.--..-- 4
"The slogan for Bemidji farmers
should be corn, clover and cows. One
acre of corn put in silo makes from
- to l S tons of silage, which when
fed to cows at about 80 pounds day
increases materially the milk flow.
Glover is good feed for sheep
and cattle and at the same time
gathers free nitrogen from the air
and thus increases the fertility of
the soil. Altho the air we breathe is
four fifths free nitrogen it is the
most expensive fertilizing element for
the reason that it can only be taken
from the air and stored as a plant
food by the legume crops such as
clover, alfalfa and soy beans.
"There are two big reasons why
every farmer should have a few we'll
fed dairy, cows. "a When a ton of
butter is sold from the farm it con-
tains ninety cents worth Of fertili-
zer-while a ton of timothy hay or
grain sold from the farm would car
ry away from eight to fifteen dollars
worth of fertilizer. ~ Besides en-
riching the land so that we may grow
better crop of Bemidji Potatoes and
so on, these dairy cattle bring in
ready cash each month which will in
time pay off that mortgage. a.
"The farmers around Bemidu
would do we'll to assist in every way
the success of the Bemidji Creamery,
which SO far as I have found is the
only cash market in Bemidji for farm
products. $50 e .z=5:5ss 80. IS.
'tThe people of Bemidji who wish to
do a little real boosting with no added
expense and at the same time receive
a clean product should demand Bet
ter Brand Bemidji Butter" Every
merchant with whom l have talked
says that he will buy this butter and
thus benefit home industry and home
labor rather than send out of townsfor
butter even tho he might get the lat
ter cent cheaper.
IF merchants everywhere were of
this sort Sears and Sawbuck would
not do so large business.
