Mandan, N, D., Feb. 26.-E. r.
Steinbrueck of Mandan has donated
to the state museum at Bismarck a

what great generation that image was
held in by the Poles, and who in
hicted the sabre cuts in the face of it.
The valuable impression Of the VEN
Grated original was brought directly
from the monastery at C~zenstochowa

STATION May
ADD A new DEPARTMENT

Mandan, n. D., Feb. 26.-A dairy
department and experiments in animal
h~usbandry may be added to the Great
Plainsfield station being established
here by the government. The officials
of the department of agriculture are
seeking an additional $4,000 ap-
preparation. If this la secured a dairy
barn and a silo will be constructed
and a herd Of dairy cattle put in with
some thoroughbred horses, some types
Of hogs and sheep, This plan would
work in finely with the other expert
ments being conducted at the station.
The primary object here is to dis
cover trees, shrubs, grains and grasses
that are best adapted to the semi-arid
regions Of the country and the grasses
and grains could easily be fed to the
livestock, which it is proposed to add
to the institution. In addition to
dairying it is probable that beef feed
ing tests will also be conducted to
show what can be accomplished on
the kinds of grains and grasses adapt
cd to large areas in this state.
