MIR. Middleton is a great favorite
wherever he goes and his remarkable
singing Of the aria from "Le Caid"
and of the famous aria from Rossini's
Barber of Seville" were sufficient to
prove him fully the equal Of any
basso who has ever appeared here
The encore is really a virtuoso piece
in enunciation and as such is usually
sung by baritones because of the
greater tonal briiliancy of that range,
but MIR. Middleton proved himself
quite equal to the task and won the
most enthusiastic applause.

Spring WORK IN
Valleys GENERAL
Farmers. Busy. in. the Fields
Mot Enough Flowing
Has Been Done.

Spring work .is on in full sway in
the Red river valley today. At several
separated points seeding had begun
the latter part Of last week but the
seeding and field work will not be
general for one or two days. The sur
face water has drained of the fields
very slowly. j: w. Scott Of Gilby put
near Gilby seeding: Farmers are
elated over the early sart they have
gotten this year.. 49,
There is one serious handicap,
however. to the otherwise satisfactory
crop outlook in North Dakota. The
rainy weather Of last fall delayed
threshing to such San extreme point
was not done. In fact. pioneer farm
ers insist there was a smaller per-
centage Of the wheat land plowed last
fall than for dozen years.
Other conditions are practically
ideal. The ground froze up wet last
fall and there has been ample moist.
ure this spring to make ideal condi-
lions for beginning farm work; Seed:
ing Is unde way In a few sections Of
the state. especially in those regions
where there is considerable sand, but
Is by no means general.
Lack Of fall blowing will retard
seeding to a large degree and will. al
SO result IN many farmers using the
shiftess method Of discing in their
grain on the stubble.
Because of the small amount OF
blowing done there is a state wide eff
tort being made to get the farmers to
seed a smaller acreage, and do m ore
summer blowing on the principle that
by the end of two years the amount of
crops will be raised and the land will
be in better condition. 1t is a difficult,
matter to make some land owners
view the matter from that standpoint
One of the results certain to fol.
low the present conditions will be an
increased corn acreage. This Is re.
garded as encouraging for next to
summer following the land, the cult.
walton of a corn crop is probably the
most beneficial as it cleans the fields
Of weeds and leaves the land in such
