The Empire State is now saddled by

ment."
North Dakota fortunately is not as
bad off as some states, but unless the

period, the creation of new jobs will

The bonded debt of North Dakota
Jan. I, 1915, was only $617,300 or less
than 81 per capita. There is nov in
the state bond sinking fund $19,107. &c.
1t is significant that one third Of the
states bonded Indebtedness was paid
off during the years of 1913 and 1914.
OF states having a bonded indebted
ness there are only five with a lower
n than ours. Two of these have
practically the same bonded debt as
North Dakota, SO this state reflects
fairly economical management in gov
ernmental affairs. NJ
Our vigilance, however, should not
be abated.

ARTIFICIAL MOTHERS FOR LITTLE
CHICkENS.s

In the April Woman's Home Com.
panion appears an article about coun-
tr,y life in April, in which the comic
aspect of artificial mothers for little
chickens is brought out as follows:
We had our artificial mothers or
broode7s, supposed, to take care Of so
infant chicks each, but as the birds
grew rapidly they Q % began to crowd
and were far less vigorcl$An nd healthy
than they might have ~ sth more
room. Al
The joke makers hayt 1sendless

absurdities belong to the brooder.
Theirs is where mechanical mother

lous guise. Even our good farm
neighbor Mr.. Handy had never used
used one while Louis Fresno and Mrs.
Louis had never seen one When we
showed them those four old hens made
up of coarse cloth fastened to a boiler
v and heated with kerosene
lamps, and tried to explain that they
would take the place Of sixteen cluck-
ing old biddies, why. Louis and wife
simply refused to believe in it."

Hints For h Gardeners

Radishes, lettuce, beans, beets, and
tomatoes are all comparatively easily
grown vegetables which give salts.
factory returns in the spring garden.
The U. S. department OF agricullure's
specialist recommends these particu-
larly for use in5school gardens which
are run for the benefit of the child
rem. Not only teachers, but others
desiring to raise these truck crops in
their own hcme gardens may benefit
from these suggestions:
R~ADisHES-Radishes are hardy
plants and thrive best during the cool
weather of early spring and late ALI
turn. In the South they can best be
grown during the winter and early
spring months. The seeds should be
sown in drills, in rich. welllprepared
soil, placed about half an inch apart
and buried not deeper than one inch
nor less than one-half inch. When
the plants are showing the second set
Of true leaves they should be thinned
to stand from 2 to 3 inches apart in
the row.
LETTUcE-Lettuce is a hardy plant
and thrives best during early spring
and late autumn. The seeds Should
be sown in drills in the open Or in
boxes in the window. If in the open,
the seeds should be scattered about
one-half inch apart along the row, and
covered not more than one half inch
with earth. Firm the earth well over
the seeds, so as to br;Hg the moist
soil in contact with them. When the
plants are well up, thin to 6 inches
apart in the row. II the seeds were
sown in a window box, hotbed, frame,
or greenhouse, transplant the young
plants to stand 2 by 2 inches apart
as soon as the seel leaves are well
expanded. and when they begin to
crowd transfer TIM StC tflaic prrma
nant places in the open, if the weather
will permit. In the field, they should
