will mlesn#thesreclamation of a great
deal Of land indifferent parts Of the
state, Il being taken in Grand Forks,
where experiments are now being
made in the matter Of utilizing alkali
hands. Asa means of using such
lands, the growing Of sweet clover is
being tested near Iarimo-e.
Sweet clover has been grown there
as a field crop for about three years,
and has proven adaptable to sandy
and alkali soil. In seeding it is found,
that after stock has become accus-
toned to it, it is well rrlished. On the
Chrystal Springs Stock Farm, it has
been %pastured, fed as hay, and fed as
:n'age, and in all forms. There has
been no trouble in getting the stock
to consume large quantities.
The production Of seed has been
found 70 be .verysproftable, as it sells
for about twenty-five cents a pound.
The demand comes principally from
the eaaty where 1t is grown on lands
that ~ o. worn ont that it is diff
cult to grow anything but sweet clo-
We.
Somesof the advantages Of Sweet
Clover ara:
Rich IN protein like alfalfa.
Furnishes early spring: pasture.
Great soil ep1iching crop.
Good green manure crop.
Seeds freely j L j
Wilz1grow where clover and alfalfa
fail.
(a) Low, wet, alkali and acid soils.
(b) On poor soil, especially on
light sandy soils.
Some of the disadvantages:
If allowed to grow too large stems
become hard and better and leaves fall
off.
Not relished by stock as a rule un-
til accustomed to it.
The successful use Of Alkali land
means much added value to many Sec
lions Of our state.

TIN IN AMERICA.
One Discovery Made In Alaska Which
Produced 526 Tons Last Year.

PRODUCED oEo ! onS LAST year.
In view of the interest in an ade-
quate tin supply for the United States
and the discussion of the smelling of
Bolivian ore on the Atlantic seaboard,
and possibly on Puget Sound, the pub
lication by the United States geologi-
cal survey of special bulletin on tin
mining in Alaska is opportune. l, Is
noteworthy, too, that specimens OF
stream tin were collected by survey
biologists in Alaska in 1900, before
this metal was known to occur in the
territory Soon after that time pros
pecting for stream tin became active
and two. years later commercial!
production of tin ore was made
The survey was also closely identi-
fed with the finding of lode deposits
Of tin. In 1903 two prospectors
brought to survey biologists in Alas
ka some specimens of float from Lost
river which they thought might be tin
ore. All the specimens but one were
worthless. From this one the geolo-
bASto ODIdiHSu III ny SilSllihS II III
teacup in their cookstove after which
both the biologists and the prospect
ors went to Lost river and discovered
a vein of lode tin. This lode on Lost
river has since been extensively min
ed. Some of the Alaska tin ore kas
been reduced at Seattle, Wash, with
in the last two years.
The report just issued presents n
review OF other work by the geoiogl-
cal survey and the denomination Of
the more important tin deposits by |
Geologist Henry M, Eakin.
The total tin production for the per.
iod 1902-1914 amounted to SIG tons &c
metallic tin. valued at $3S0,000, The
Alaskan tin ores have heretofore been
shipped for reduction to Swansea
(Wales) and Singapore. A copy of the

Some Of these lenses are more than

SAYS THIS SUIT is
IMAGINATION OF DEVIL

lola, Kan, Oct PSI made my
money by hard work and if keep it
it will be by hard work, too
Ebb Butler, Allen county's wheat
king and defendant in w. N. Coates
$25, 900 alienation suit, today made
that statement.
He said it just after William Looney,
"a farm hand, had testified that Butler
had threatened to chase his wife off
"the farm with barrel stave" if she
didn't consent to an exchange Of
wives.
Butler is being sued by Coates upon
the allegation he made love to Mrs.
Coates and offered farm ito boot" if
Coates would agree to exchange wives
Butler declares the suit is the mach
ination Of the devil and says the Lord
will "see him through" He is furnish
ing the entire sum necessary to build
the new Pentecostal church here.
The principal witnesse for the cont
plainant are farm hands employed on
some one of Buffers many farms.
Their testimony is to the effect that
the friendship between Butler and
Mrs Coates. his neighbor's wife. was
anything but platonic.
One of the statements credited to
Butler by witnesses was that he would
"have Mrs. Coates no matter what it
cost"
Buffers defense is that the whole
case is a frame-up, conceived by those
who are envious of the sudden wealth
his activities in wheat have brought
him.
