WILL PERFECT COW
TESTERS ORGANIZATION

Farmers who have cows should not
overlook an important meeting that
will be held at the Association of Com
merce rooms in this city next Satur-
day afternoon, when the Cow Testing
organization of Ward county will be
perfected. The Independent made an
error last week, in saying that only
the owners of pure bred cows were
eligible to membership in the organi-
cation. Any farmer owning cows can
join. The object is to test the milk
and weed out the star boarders from
the herds. The Agricultural college
will assist in the work, furnishing a
man to visit the various farms, and
will bear portion of the expense.
The matter will be threshed out Sat-
urday. Be sure to attend. This is GER
tain to become a great factor in
building up the dairy business Of this
section of the state.

which is an interesting one from Mr..
Davy's point of view. Good live mer-

This is one time when the North Da-
kota farmer can really enjoy seeing
the price of wheat 60 down. His crop
is sold and he will soon start work at
seeding for his 1915 harvest, but that
is causing him no worry. Raising
wheat in North Dakota will be only a
side-line in the future, and while the
state as a whole will produce as much
wheat as ever, the farmers have learn
ed the value of diversified farming
and will depend upon cattle and hogs
to care for their expenses and enable
them to hold their wheat to sell when
they feel inclined to do so. Had wheat
prices gone to the two dollar mark
many farmers would have been stam-
peded back into the old ruts, which
happily was prevented by the timely
break in prices.-Powers Lake Echo.

MINOT. NORTH DAKOTA.
THE ERADICATION OF GOPHERs.

THE ERADICATION OF GOPHERS.
Last year twelve counties in the
state paid out nearly $4,000 in 60
pher bounties, yet but small impress
sion was made on the gopher popula-
ton. It is estimated that the gophers
cause an annual loss of millions in
crops destroyed, and that in dry years
the amount is almost double. In Jan
uary, 1914, the North Dakota expert
ment station at Fargo and the U. S.
biological survey started an investi-
cation to find out the best method of
gopher eradication, and one was found
by which the gophers could be killed
at the cost of two to four cents per
acre. The result of the investigation
and the formula are given in Circular
No. 4, of the North Dakota experiment
station at Fargo, and which will be
mailed to anyone asking for it. Oats
were found to be the best grain and
strychnine the best poison. The for
mula for preparing the poison is a
little complicated, so it should not be
attempted except by those who are
familiar with this kind of work.

use it for drinking purposes. Many
thousands of dollars are spent annu-
ally for spring water that is hauled
from door to door. Any amount of
good water may be found in the val
ley. Cool, sparkling water gushes
forth from the hill side in the north
ern part of the city. 1t is believed
that several large wells would provide
the city with all of the good, pure
water we would need. This was con-
sidered at some length at the time the
new system was installed, but no ex-
periments were ever made. 1t would
be worth thousands of dollars to Minot
annually to get supply of the right
kind Of water. Many cities pipe their
water in for miles. One has sunk
wells in a river, pure water being al
lowed to seep in. This is problem
that sooner or later will have to be
worked out.

This is the season of Lent, forty
days of fasting kept by the church
for hundreds of years. While relig-
ious, some people are fasting for 9TH

she has a beautiful form. She has

because we enjoy it. Big eaters do

Williams, of Grand Forks, the So
cialist candidate for governor last fall,
is to be replaced as editorial writer on
the Iconoclast. Williams appears to
be opposed to anything of a relig-
ious nature, and his editorials have
been such that some who might have
joined the Socialist party, would not
do so, owing to their church affilia-
lions. One Socialist suggests that it
might be wise to center their attacks
on capitalism and let religion alone.
Undoubtedly some excellent principles
have been advanced by the Socialists,
but this attack on religion by some
prominent men within the ranks has
caused that party to dwindle to a
noticeable degree in North Dakota
during the past two years.

According to Prof. Holden, the corn
expert, corn should be planted in
North Dakota between May 10 and 20
This is worth remembering, for those
few who may not have yet had any
experience with corn in North Dakota
Time was, when our farmers planted
their corn when the other crops were
all in, but since corn has become one
of our main crops, we notice that it is
planted earlier and with better re-
suits.

In writing of the candidates for the
city commission, the Reporter says
that "R. H. Emerson has about made
up his mind to run for president"
Bro. Johnson should have known that
Mr.. Emerson is a candidate for pres
ident, having filed his petition Satur-
day and for several days previous, Mr..
Emerson's announcement appeared in
the Daily Optic-Reporter. Johnson
may oppose Emerson for the position
to which he aspires, for that is his
prerogative, but he ought at least to
be honest with him.

The average ear of corn has 600
to 700 kernels. Each kernel planted
in hill should produce corn stalk;
each stalk should produce one ear Of
corn, 100 ears to bushel would mean
that each ear of corn should yield six
or seven bushels. The farmer loses
$3.50 to $500 on each ear that will not
grow. There is simple way to test
seed corn. Any man, woman or child
can make tests. Corn testers sell as
low as two cents each. Test your seed
corn and save labor and money.

Now we know the secret of Billy
Sundays success. Leaving out the
divine force, which is Of course the
main factor, there is the human ele-
ment. Hard cases hate church, but
they will crowd into big shed with
saw dust floor, they like plenty of
singing, they like slang, they like a
free show, they like a crowd, and
Billy gives them entertainment. Once
in the shed, he fires the gospel at them
and they take the trail. These fellows
would never enter church.

H. L. Bolley of the agricultural COL
lege is willing to test seed free for
anyone who will send him a fair sized
sample. When seed is particularly
good, he will list it and give the name
and address of the owner to those
who desire to buy something choice.
He will also test seed for those who
send sample that is offered for sale.
Many make good use of this depart
ment of the agricultural college each
year.
