clean seed. Treat the seed with for
maldehyde. Such treatment will not
drive out all manner of diseases. In
addition to this treatment. when you
cut the seed potatoes, look carefully
at the cut surfaces of the seed pieces.
If any darkness appears or other in
dications of disease, lay out the af-
fected pieces and burn them. Do not
plant them, neither throw them out
in any way o. the land.
Planting potatoes thus on clean
land, using treated seed, and also
seed unaffected with potato disease,
is the practical way for keeping po-
tato diseases reduced to a minimum.
Potatoes should be put in on a
deep seed bed. Pillow the ground
deeply, as much as seven or eight
inches. | would suggest also fall
blowing under many circumstances.
After potatoes thus put in on a deep
seed bed and cultivated clean, it is
possible to put in small grain with
shallow blowing, or eve with no
blowing whatever. A seed bed fol-
lowing potatoes could be prepared
with a disk, but it should be a sharp
disk and the ground should have
ample work.

CITIZENS
May Not Accept Finding of Arbitra-

Watertown, May 9.-Much specu-
lation is being INDUCED in by cit
liens on whether or not the Water
town city commission will accept the
new telephone rate fixed by the
board of arbitration in its formal re-
port made to a special session Of the
commission last night. Inasmuch as
the city's member of the board does
not agree with the other two mem
bers on the proper rate for party
line phones, and further as the COM
mission took 40 action on the report,
it is 10Y claimed that the city may
carry the controversy to the state
railroad commission. President j.
l.. w. Zietlow, of the Dakota Central
Telephone company, n of the
new automatic exchange just in
stalled, appeared before the commits
sion and declared that ii had agreed
TO abide by the finding of a majority
Of the arbitration board. The com
mission, however, decided to defer
action because two members were
absent and fixed upon May IL as the
time for final determination of its
attitude.

Senior CLASS PLAY
At NORMAL AUDITORIUM LASl
EVENING A GRAND
SUCCESS.

The High School Seniors, under
the coaching of Miss Mae Keyser,
presented Miss Hobbs at the Nor
nal auditorium last night to a house
filled to overlooking. Some were un-
able to get in while a good many
preferred to stand rather than miss
it. About 500 people watched the
High SchooIers'' perform in pro-
f~essional style. The execution was
all that could be desired, and that
together with the scenery made even
the most critical of critics admit that
they had had their moneys worth.
Miss Olga Andersen as Miss Hobbs
made a hit by her Interpretation,
and the manner in which she dis
played the range of a woman's tenn
permanent showed careful study and
natural ability. Wesley Beardsley,
with his pleasing personality and
stage presence, won the audience
and carried the part of Wolf Kings
earl with credit. Arthur Sterling
with his easy manner handled the
part of Perciyal Kingsearl, and he
handled it in a manner that deserves
comment. Fern Johnson as Mrs.
PercivaI kingsearl was a beautiful
and loving wife which was demon
surated in the last act. Miss Mill
cen Faroy, the sweetheart of George
Jessop, was played by Estella Fitz-
gerald and her ability cannot be
questioned. George Jessop was good,
due to Clifford Powers who carried
the part. Miss Susan Abbey, the
good old aunt, who managed the re,
Cancellation in grand style, was Mel
lie Squires. Captain Sands vas truly
a sailor, and Mason Daugherty was
guilty. Who could help but laugh
at Charles? George Runkel carried
the part. Miss Hazel Kundert made
a very charming maid.
The scenery used in this play was
made by the seniors under the di
|rection of f. E. Larson, professor oil
manual training and mechanics and
free hand drawing. The actual exc
cution was done by Louis (FrenchieJ
Goryan, a local painter. The senior:

Jones for an order citing the county
commissioners to show cause why
they rejected the bonds of the sa-
loon men. Much has been said about
a court decision in a saloon case al
Lennon parallel to the case in this
city. Investigation, however, re-
veals the fact that the Lennon case
was simply a matter of defining the
legality of ballots used at an cleo

no bearing on the Madison case.

Primary elections, 1914, are past
and we experience now lull like af-
ter storm. Some candidates wear
q satisfied smile and assert, it was
Gust what figured on, others wear
the frown of disappointment and feel
as though friends had sighted them.
However that may be, the fact re-
mains that all have received a GER
tain amount of advertising and they
may in the future profit by this
broader acquaintance.
Many voter too, feels the slight,
but that sore will be healed before
the fall election, as soon as the new
campaign wakes hot and new issues
arise. It is up to us now to make
the most Of existing conditions; this
is our community, and we intend to
remain loyal, ever to work in the in
terest of our county, city, district
or state.
William e. Lee has won the Re-
publican nomination for governor,
and Governor Eberhart IS defeated
after having served three terms in
that office. In reviewing the cam
paign, we find that the two opposite
sides each employed widely different
tactics. Eberhart relied for renom-
ination upon his record in office, he
let nothing personal enter, and thus
upheld the dignity of his high office.
Lee, on the other hand, in campaign
characterized by it's aggressiveness,
depended for his nomination upon
promises. In the result of the cleo
ton, we see that promises have tri-
umphed over definite record, which
is perhaps not so surprising, for Oft
times. promises partaking of the SEN
sational appeal more to the common
voter.
In Governor Eberhart, the state
loses an efficient and capable execus
tive. He has fine record of loyal
service to his state, and will always
be ranked with the best governors
the state has ever had.
Mr.. Lee. has now different opposi-
ton staring him in the face, and, no
doubt, there will be an interesting
race staged next fall for the COVER
nor's chair. That if Lee is elected
next fall he will have different
place to fill is certain, for no doubt,
critics Of the administration will
watch closely. We are confident,
however, that he will strive to fulfill
his promises, he may not succeed, but
he will, in the attempt give the state
the best there is in him. 1t will be
up to him to demonstrate to what ex-
tent the promises of a gubernatorial
candidate can be relied upon.
