Langdon was again given fitting
recognition this week when Governor
l.. B. Hanna appointed DR.. Tom
Smith of this city a member of the

Sam'l Myers Who Homestead Here
Thirty Years Ago Dies Sudden

SEVENTY SIX YEAR OLD
Passed Away While Sitting in a Chair at
Home of His Son Where He Had Made
His Home Since Removing From Here

Pioneer of Cavalier County Since 1884

The following is a short sketch of
the life of Samuel Myers, whose
death occurred quite suddenly at Dun
dufn, Sask., on the 17th of March,
and who in the long years ago was a
we'll known pioneer resident of the

children were born. 1t was in the
year 1884 that Mr.. Myers and his
family moved from their home in the
east to Langdon North Dakota, and
homesteaded and engaged in farming

Of snow. The second season for those
fields, that of 1913, there was but a
slight difference in the yield or char
acter of the growth which made up
the first cutting. But after this
growth was taken off, the difference
between the fields at once became
striking]y evident. The inoculated
fields came on with the second growth
rapidly and vigorously and made a
yield of three-fourths Of ton to ton
per acre, in month or six weeks
after the first cutting. Recovering
from the second cutting, it made a
thrifty growth of from twelve to
eighteen inches for winter protection.
On the other hand, the fields not in
oculated seemed to be paralysed after
the first cutting. They stood still for
week or two and then came on with
weak, patchy, pale colored growth
which scarcely was worth the cutting,
and went into winter with but six or
eight inches of sickly looking
growth. This condition was true of
nearly all the uninoculated fields, ex-
cept those which were sown on break
ing, or upon piece of ground pre-
vious1y very heavily manured. Upon
these fields the condition was not so
evident, although present, there being
approximately one half ton per acre
difference in the yield of this second
cutting. Also in these fields there
were patches which showed up with
the thrifty growth and dark green
color characteristic of inoculated
fields, which patches upon examina-
tion showed some signs of incubation.
This condition seemed to be spread
ing over the entire field as the season
progressed.
The second winter, 1884, was
open, with but little snow until Feb
ruary, and consequently extremely
hard on grasses. Following this win
ter, the third season for these fields,
the inoculated fields continued thrifty
and the stand was unimpaired by the
severe winter; absolutely no winter
killing could be observed. But on the
other fields, those without incubation,
there was all the way from twenty
five to fifty per cent of winter killed
plants, the smaller per centage being
upon those fields previously mention
ed, which were sown on favorable
ground and which had shown scattered
incubation during the previous fall.
EARLY in the summer the remaining
stand on all those fields showed signs
of incubation in spots, which spread
over the entire field by midsummer on
the very fertile fields, and by fall on
all the others.
1t should be borne in mind that the
observations which form a basis for
these statements were not taken from
any one field, or from isolated in
stances, but from many fields under

The matter of incubation for al
falfa is much debated question. 1t
is usually settled by the statement
that some soils need artificial inocu-
lation and others do not. There Is no
doubt truth in this statement, but l
believe better wording to use, when
presenting to the farmers beginning
with alfalfa, is that some soils need
it more than others. The average
farmer looks upon the first statement
as a subterfuge, and when he sees
that the need for incubation is de-
batable even among authorities, he
comes to the conclusion after due con-
sideration of the extra work involved,
that his soil is one of those where
incubation is not necessary.
| was informed three years ago,
when | came to Cavalier county, in
experienced in alfalfa culture in this
locality, that incubation was abso-
lutely necessary to a thrifty hardy
stand, and l was told on the other
hand, with equal emphasis, that such
was not the case. This left me be-
tween the devil and the deep sea on
the proposition, and surmise that it
is the same dilemma in which the
farmer finds himself, when he reads
that incubation depends on the soil,
and then tries to ascertain from his
neighbors whether he is located in the
inoculated or uninoculated belt.
The first year, 1912, seeded about
fifty demonstration fields Of alfalfa.
the majority of which were inocu]ated
and the others were not. At the end
Of the year came to one very def
mite conclusion, j. e. that the unin-
oculated fields had no incubation.
Otherwise, to the novice, there would
seem to be little difference in stand
and apparent thrift, although going
direct from one field to the other,
could detect "a slight difference in
height, leafiness and color, in favor
of the inoculated fields.
The first winter of !1912-l3 was

TORPEDO NETS
Be TESTED OUT
ON BATTLESHIPS
For Experimental Purposes
New Attachment Being
Given a Trial.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, July 13.-For expert
mental purposes, the navy depart
ment has purchased several torpedo
nets to protect battleships from tor
pedo attack. Secretary Daniels said
today these were of the same type
as those employed by European ma
vies. Experiments now are going on
with the nets aboard one of the ships
on the Atlantic feet. Similar expert
ments made some time ago produced
no very definite results, but navy
officials hope to be able to 80 improve
the nets as to reduce the dangers
from submarines.
The nets are composed OF wire
links and high speed modern torpe-
does have torn their way through
them IN previous tests. The British
battleship Triumph, sunk by torpe-
do in the Dardanelles, is said to have
/ had nets out which were penetrated
i Preparations to equip battleships
with nets were made when the last
Il few ships were launched, although
the nets were not actually put aboard
I Soft spots were left in the armol
belts, however, where the booms coult
be attached.
The nets hang to depth OF thlrt!
feet from the surface and are swunt
, out twenty or more feet from tn
ships side. Torpedoes are discharges
; when they strike the nets and rela
: lively small damages results excep
to the net.
Some officers are not over conn
: dent of the success of the net expert
t ments, but believe it wise to leav
: no stone unturned in an effort to pre-
tect battleships from submarines.
n is said that nets are no use except
: ships at anchor, as, while under wa
e the dragging weight would hold II
= most powerful battleship down to
n speed of less than ten knots. II
British navy always has been equll
e ped with nets, but the present ten
y ency, it is said, is to discard them.

FRICTION BETWEEN
FRENCH OVER THE
CARE OF ORPHANS
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Paris, July 14.-Notwitrstanding
efforts to avoid any friction that
would mar the Sacred Union" of the
French people in wartime, sentiment.
politics and religion have developed
something of clash over the proper
treatment Of orphans.
The fixing of ''tag day. for the
collection Of funds for the orphan
age OF the armies and the discussion
OF the proposed legislation affect
ing the future wars of the nations
has brought abont i'll feeling in some
quarters. "The orphanage of the
Armies"is one of the most recent of
three large organizations seeking to
cope with the orphan problem. Pat
ronized by President Poincare. and
accorded the "tag day" privilege bv
the minister of the interior, to the ex-
clusion of the other socities, it has
been given a semi-official character.
which drew the antagonism of the
religious elements.
Sentiment rebelled against the
chasing Of the orphans as depend
ents OF the government and devout
people became alarmed lest the con-
troll of the education of the children
should develop arbitrary pressure
against religious training. Politi-
clans, too, became suspicious that
some of the charitable organizations
might try to exercise a religious in
fluence on future citizens. The two
other organizations that claim the
right to share in the administration
to the contributions for the orphans
are the orphans of the War" and
the "Fraternal Union of the Children
Of the War" Both Of these profess
TO be non-sectarian. The former was
the first in the field, and has fur
nlshed homes for more than a thous-
of the children decide
whether they shah be brought up re-
hg1onsly or not and, If religiously,
whether in the Catholic or Protestant |
faith. The other organization is en-
1eayor1ng to find boys and girls of |
well-to-do families who will adopt the |
child of some fallen hero as a brother /
or sister and help it to make its way
IN life without taking it away from |
its own home.
