the defendants to secure trial un.

the Record has made against him,

COURT ADJOURNS

Judge Nuessle closed the annual
February term of district court Fri
day of last week after the better
part of two weeks had been used to
try the several court and jury cases.
Saturday morning the judge and his
stenographer, e. 0. Wattam, left
for Bismarck.
The calendar was we'll cleaned up,
the libel suit against the former
publishers Of the Record being about
the only one of any moment that got
the go-hy. In the beginning of the
term the attending counsel were in
formed by the court that they
should have all cases ready for trial
for nothing would 60 over the term.
When the case of Scott Cameron VS..
D. r. and F. B. Streeter, under the
firm name of D. r. Streeter & Son,
for libel. came up. Mr.. Cameron
urged motion that had been pend
ing since the May term, 1913, which
motion was to the effect that de-
PENDANTS were not justified in say
ing that the action was against the
county when it was against Nara
more as county treasurer, and that
defendants statement in the paper
that taxes were set aside, by showing
that the tax lien had been set aside,
which seems to be q distinction
without a difference. On this mat
ter the Judge wavered from his for
mer intention and we'll have to wait
another year before we can get a
hearing of the charges.
One day last week the opposing
counsel in the libel case argued
the preliminary motion. 1t seems
the points of law considered were a
little too deep for His Honor, and
he concluded he would need consid-
derable time to deliberate before
handing down his decision. Hence,
the defendants will not be given a
chance to offer their veriication of
the charges published relative to
Mr.. Cameron in the year 1912 until
after the next election. In due
time, however. we hope to have the
pleasure of allowing a jury to pass
upon the accusations. and. in view.
of the fact that the writer is now in.
charge of the Record, it is his duty
to his readers to uphold the integ-
rity and the authenticity Of its col.
umns. Being amember Of the firm.
that published the Record at the
time the libel suit was brought
against its publishers. we deem it
our duty to see that at some time or
other the action brought by Mr..
Cameron be taken up in a court of
law and the Record and it's publish
ers either indicated or found guilty

At the South Dakota Experiment.

at the South Dakota Experiment
Station has been carried on for some
time and the authorities are now
ready with certain suggestions and
certain instructions. The report
which follows refers especially to
conditions in South Dakota, but
the. generally apply in the central
and western portion Of North sDako-
ia as well. 1t behooves our farmers
to examine these things closely and
pay proper attention to them. Here
with we print the government re-
port:
Better varieties and seed are re.
quired for crop improvement in and
around South Dakota where the
small grain crops are one of the
chief sources of wealth. There is
now far too much land farmed by
short-term renters, who care little
about crop or soil improvement, and
it rests largely with the landowners
whether or not the yields per acre
are to be increased. These are some
of the conclusions of the scientists
who have been studying conditions
for a decade at the South Dakota
Experiment Station of the Depart
ment of Agriculture. The infor-
nation also should be of direct in
terest to North Dakota, Iowa and
Montana.
Adapted varieties are very import
ant in a climate like that Of South
Dakota, and therefore, as result
of it's Investigations, the Depart
ment of Agriculture recommends
the following varieties Of wheat,
oats and barley for that state:
Wheat: Kubanka durum, Haynes
Bluestem and Fife.
Oats: Swedish Select and Sixty
Day.
Barley: Manchuria. Odessa, Ham,
chen, Gatami. Mariout and related
varieties.
To obtain the fullest return from
the use of these varieties the seed
must be kept pure and up to high
standard of quality.
The present average yields are:
Wheat. IL bushels per acre; oats,
1858 bushels per acre; barley, 1913
bushels per acre.
These are not enough. Produc-
tion must be increased to keep pace
with the constant increase Of popu-
lation. In such a condition the main
requirements for crop improvement
are the following:
Better varieties.
Better seed.
Better rotations.
Better soil treatment.
Better tillage and cultivation.
Better economic conditions.
The first two essentials mentioned
better varieties and better seed
are thoroughly discussed in the new
publication of the Department Of
Agriculture entitled: Experiment.

let gives the details Of the work al

Just as we thought. our article rel
alive to government ownership of
utilities week or so ago brought
forth a reply. We did not believe
that it would be passed by without
more or less caustic reply from
some rabid socialist. We are repro
ducing herewith the reply of S. G.
Stedman, of Temvik.
We are taken to task for referring
to the constitution with certain
degree of respect. and are told that
we need have no qualms in putting
q quietus on that document. The
Declaration of independence, so our
correspondent states, is document
of much finer sentiment and guar
antees life. liberty and happiness.
We do not need to look futher. The
points the gentleman names decides
the question. His collective own.
ership of collectively operated in
dustries" theory falls flat through
the medium he invokes to prove his
point. The liberty of the Declara-
tion of independence prohibits the
very thing he demands.
Where would be the liberty-or
even the happiness-were the fruits
of individual endeavor to be taken
away from the Individual and dis
tributed equally among the rest?
How long would it take to xii! all
personal ambition and endeavor?
How many men would expend the
energy and talent that has brought
about the tremendous mechanical
and scientific improvements of to.
day? Even were it possible to salts
fly mankind with this equal distribu-
tion theory where would be the
agent that could successfully handle
such system?
Our correspondent informs US that
we might employ the columns of
the Record to better advantage in
telling our readers of q number of
examples of governmental misman-
agement. Yet in the same breath
he demands-not curtailing of gov
ernmental industrial power a
grand. sweeping, revolutionary in
crease of that power. He wants to
tell US that the government doesn' t
properly manage the few lines of in
dustrial endeavor which it has un-
dertaken, and he wants to tell US
that we should place everything in
the hands Of that government. The
gentleman certainly has some argu-
ment. But here is his communica
ton:
Temvik. North DAKOTA,
Feb. Z, 1914.
To the Editor of the Record:
| beg for space in your valued pa
per to make few remarks on your
editorial of the fifth inst. You
state that, The constitution of the
United States was go framed and SO
intended that every citizen from the
highest to the lowest might have an
equal chance That it was SO in
tended is we'll remarked. Since the
constitution was framed industry
has passed through changes greater
than all the changes made in the his
tory of the world previous to that
time. For that reason what the con-
stitution was framed for has been
obviated. The changing forms of
industry have already forced society
through three distinct social forms
-chattel slavery, feudalism and cap.
itolism. lis reasonable to conclude
that this later great change will
force US into collective ownership OF

Again this week the Record pre-
sents for your consideration a COM
munication from the government
which we are requested TO publish
free of charge. This time it comes
from James Coffey. collector OF rev.
enue for the district of North and
South Dakota. The dear editor"
is requested to print long yarn rel
alive to the income tax. In view of
the fact that "at least half of our
readers did not have the stated
$500 net income for the last ten
months of 1913 we do not believe
that 1t is necessary to burden them
with a column or so of information
relative to the requirements under
the income-tax law. However, the
following extract from Mr.. Coffey s
communication will state the salient
points Of the same:
To All Concerned:
desire to call the attention of
every person liable to the Federal
Income Tax to the necessity Of max
ing a sworn statement Of his or her
income to the Collector of Internal
Revenue on or before the lst day of
March, 1914. This is liability that
attaches to every person, man or wo.
man, citizens of the United States or
alien residents of the country, with
a net income of $1,000 or more for
the last ten months of the gear end
ed December 81, 1918; and what is
more, it is liability that attache:
under severe penalties for refusal te
comply with the law by making
such report. No person is re-
CURED to make this report unless
their net income for the last ter
months of the year, 1913. was So. 500
or more. Respectfully.

District of No. & So. OAK,
