in testing out varieties of cereals, root

Cattle thrive in this county. For

with great success as a result of work

ly twice that many. This shows con-
clusively that there is a very great
need of a normal school at Dickinson.
The eastern part of the state is very
we'll supplied, and, in fact, a large
percentage of their students come
from the western counties. A nor
NAL school at Dickinson would make
it possible for the western part of
the state to have better teachers and
this would raise the standard of the
schools. Next year the people of the
state will have an opportunity to
vote on this question, and it is the
hope of every sincere believer in the
development of the state that this
proposition will be carried by an over
whelming majority.
Fine Public Buildings.
Dickinson is very fortunate in it's
public buildings. There is no finer
Elks hall in the state, or even in the
northwest, for that matter. 1t is
finished in dark marble and mahogany
and the furnishings are luxurious.
This lodge has over 500 members.
Then there is the Masonic temple,
erected at a cost of 100000, and the
armory of Company K, commanded
by DR.. C. N. Barker. This armory
is a very solid looking structure and
is amply large enough for drilling
the entire company recruited to it's
full strength. The government is to
erect a postoffice building here to cost
$4,000, which is badly needed, as the
present quarters are very inadequate.
St. Joseph's hospital, costing
100000, is an elegant building, well
equipped, and doing a most import
ant work. The religious life of the
community is cared for by three
Catholic churches, St. Patrick's, st.
Joseph's and Bohemian Catholic, and
the Congregational, Methodist, Epis-
copal and German Lutheran.

fected in the steady progress of the
western country, and as the years go
by, and the state assumes a more i'm
portant place in the business of the
nation, it will be found that Dickin-
son will keep pace with the advance
and will retain its position, already
secure, as one of the most attractive
cities in North Dakota.

Increasing The Corn Yield In Georgia
Pres Andrew MI soue Georgia State College of Agriculture

Land intended for corn should be
thoroughly prepared. Deep blowing
to accommodate the deep root system
of the plant is advisable. 1t is essen
tial that organic matter be added to
Georgia soils either in the form of
green manuring Or as barnyard man
ure or in the form of leaves and lit
ter from the woods, or in compost.
This gives not only protection against
drouth, but the decay adds humus and
plant food.
Corn requires a soil rich in nitro
gen. One hundred bushels of corn
removes from the soil about $50
pounds Of this element At the time
of planting apply not less than 500
pounds per acre Of fertilizer analyz-
ing four per cent organic nitrogen, 9
per cent phosphoric acid and two or
three per cent potash. If potash is
not available from Germany, unleach-
ed wood ashes or cotton seed meal

may be of some assistance in this
respect. A side application of fertil.
izer of the same analysis should be
made at the rate of about 200 pounds
to the acre about six weeks after
planting.
But if the land is carefully prepar-
ed and literally fortified, it does not
follow that there will be a good crop
unless the seed are well selected and
proper cultivation is given. Obtain
seed of variety that has done well
in your locality, test the seed for
termination strength and plant seed
only from ears showing high record in
termination.
Give frequent, shallow cultivation
till the ear is fully developed Guilt
walton is often stopped at the wrong
time. Deep blowing during cultiva.
ton destroys roots and does much in
jury. 1t is therefore important that
only shallow cultivation be given and
that a mulch be maintained as con-
stantly as possible between the rows.

Pecan Culture In GEORGIA
}. w. Firor, Adjunct-Professo OF Hor-
ticuIture, Georgia State College
Of Agriculture

A bulletin has Just been issued by
the Georgia State College of Agricul-
ture on Pecan Culture in Georgia, the
purpose of which has been to set forth
briefly and plainly the most important
features of successful pecan culture
in Georgia. 1t is issued in answer to
a widespread demand for information
on the subject within the state. The
College is conducting experiments in
pecan growing, about which it will
eventually report. The present bulle-
tin is designed to provide general in
formation about varieties, best cultu-
raj methods, protection from diseases
and insects, marketing, etc. 1t can
be obtained free by writing to the
College. Every Georgia farmer can
grow at least few trees.
Some of the records of Individual
trees and orchards are given and
probable income is discussed.

There is grave lest the United States be-

England seems determined to starve out Germany,

This may be in accordance with the rules of warfare
but it is not in accord with the laws of humanity Help

Germany, in retaliation says merchant ships must
