CARE REQUIRED FOR ALFALFA
Cultivation Aerates Soil, Tends to
Destroy Weed Growth and Con-
serves Needed Moisture,

tBy L. r. WALDRON. Superintendent
Of Dickinson Sub-StationD
Alfalfa does not require much care
the first season. If weeds come up
quickly, as they usually do, 1t is well
to clip the alfalfa, fitting the mower
bar and running it high. Care should
be taken not to cut the alfalfa too
short. The field may be clipped two
or three times during the season as
necessity arises. If the alfalfa ia
sown on low ground 1t may be nee.
essary to remove a crop Of hay. This
should be done early enough SO that
the atlanta will make a good growth
after cutting. Ordinarily the clippings
may be left upon the ground The al.
falfa Is liable to be injured when
clipped too young. It is generally
recognized that alfalfa stubble should
have sufficient height at the beginning
Of winter to afford protection to the
plants by the catching of snow. Prof.
Thomas Shaw states that under his
In Montana, alfalfa was har
rowed the first season with distinct
advantage. Such narrowing cannot
be done until the roots are fairly well
established.
In the spring Of the second season
the alfalfa may be benefited by har.
rowing or perhaps a light disking. A

THE COMMISSION
IS GETTING BUSY
SCOUTS ARE WORKING THE
STATE DIGGING UP PROPERTY
THAT HAS ESCAPED TAXA
TON.

F. E. Packard, member of the state
tax commission was in Minot We'd
nesday enroute to Stanley, Williston
and Crosby, county seat towns, which
he is required to visit at intervals in
the interest Of the commission. The
three members of the commission are
devoting their entire time to this work
and it is estimated that in little over
year they have been responsible for
unearthing nearly half million dol
lars worth of taxes that had been
covered up. AS each commissioner
receives salary of $4,000 annually, it
is seen that they are paying their way
and then some.
The commission has scouts working
the state, digging up property upon
which taxes have not been paid. They
will be in Minot in three weeks. In
one county they found banker
whose brother-in-law was the asses
sor, who had not paid taxes on an ele-
vator, large residence and other
property. The banker has had to
come thru for six years back taxes.
They are looking up right-of-way
sites, which are taxable, and fraternal
societies which own buildings wherein
clubs are maintained.
The commission will recommend
some important legislation concern
ing the method of taxation. The
Northern Pacific railroad company is
paying taxes that are away too low
according to the other roads. The N.
P. taxes average $4O3 per mile in the
state whereas in Idaho that company's
taxes average about 5000, and $500 in
The commission will rec
ommend that corporations doing bus
mess in the state be taxed according
to the amount Of business done. For
instance, one concern did over four
million dollars worth of business in
North Dakota last year, but did not
pay taxes commensurate with this
business. This concern holds many
thousands of dollars worth of farm
ers' notes upon which it is not taxed.
Other concerns have expensive mach
inery located here and there about the
state. A line will be gotten on this
and it will be taxed. There are over
400 foreign corporations doing bust
ness in this state and the commission
recommends that the law be remedied,
whereby the state will be enriched to
the extent of from 100000 to a mil
lion dollars annually. Counties under
the proposed law, will get their pro-
portionate share of the taxes accord
ing to the amount of business the con-
Germs do in them.
The commission is working upon the
theory that the poor man should not
be taxed much and that the richer ones
should be assessed in proportion to
their ability to pay. In other words,
the commission would make the taxes
very light for the man at the bottom
and would "soak" the John D. Rookie
fellers of the state.

Garbage Hauler> for City of Minot.

Garbage Hauler for City of Minot.
Secretary Hollenga is working out
plan whereby the citizens of Minot
can have their garbage hauled for a
nominal sum. Last summer it was
necessary to pay the haulers $500 for
a jag, no matter how small it was, as
they had to make haul of mile and
half to the dump ground. The Sec
rotary states that he will guarantee
that he can get the garbage hauled
twice month at rate not to exceed
a dollar a month, and it is even posi-
BILE that the city will hire hauler
and pay him out of the fund for that
purpose.
