EARL BEAUCHANIP, MEMBER
 WAR GARNET AT 4s


 This year marks the centenary of the creation of the title of Earl Beauchamp, which is now held by William Iygon, seventh Earl Beau champ, who holds a place in the war ministry of Great Britain as Lord President of the Council. The earl is still a young man, just past his forty-third milestone The family motto of the BeauchaInps- nounced Beechum-is Fortuna mea in nelIo campo, which, by a free translation. means ssNfy fortune falls in pleasant places.'' It is quite true in the case of stae youthful earl, for in his brief career he has achieved a multitude of honors. He had barely passed his majority when he was chosen mayor of worcester. Since then he has been governor and com rnander- -in-chief of New South Wales, lord lieutenant Of Gloucester, lord president of the. council, first com missioner of works and lord warden of the Cinque ports. He was also lord steward of the household of King Edward, and was prominently of the Duke of Connaught as, gov ernor-genera1 of Canada. Although a peer and very wealthy, he is 8 Lib- eral in politics and an ardent de fender of suffrage for the fair sex Lord Beauchanp was only nineteen

Tn his first public speech he put his foot in its' by con gratulating Australians upon having 'swiped out their birth stain's-a ref erence to the fact that the colony was largely settled by convicts. The newspapers la.mpooned the earl wig orously, and one wit of the press ran an advertisement reading, For birth stains use Beauchamp's pills.

CASH PRIZES oFFBRKD Il
by STATE EXPQSITIoN

Two thousand dollars will be
given away at the Exposition OF
Agriculture at Bismarck Oct. 4
to 16 inclusive. Many farmers
in every county Of the state are
at the present time preparing ex-
hibits, as busy as they are, with
their individual harvests. All
classes and kinds of grains and
grasses win be exhibited, not
alone in the expectancy Of win
ming one Of the prizes, but be-
cause each farmer is proud, and
he can justly be proud, CT his
harvest this year. North Dakota
is a great state but it has been
many years since the abundant
harvest has visited it as it has
this year. The premium list for
the Exposition will be out soon,
and they will be mailed bread
east throughout the state. Let
every farmer interesed in the
advertising Of the state make an
exhibit Of his years successful
work at this time.

CORN FOR suo GOOD
EVEN II 3RoZEN

Corn makes the best ensilage
when nearly ripe, though it can
be put in tho silo at any stage.
The nearer ripe the corn is the
greater the amount of food val
lie secured per acre. The corn
crop increases in weight per acre
quite rapidly after it reaches the
tassellng stage. The season
has kept corn back this year.
Leave it as long as possible be-
fore putting it, into the silo. It
will not hurt the corn for silage
even if it freezes, provided it is
then put in the silo right away.

If the injunction is maintained
it cannot be held that the de-
livery Of liquor is a direct vio-
lation Of the North Dakota pro-

is carried to persons maintain

railroad companies participants.
Judge Amidon has taken the
case under advisement but no
decision is expected until in Nov.

HOW TO PREPARE SAMPLES
OF GRAINS AND GRASSES

There are many inquiries Tor
samples Of grains and grasses
grown in our county and to aid
farmers who are desirous of pre-
pairing sheaves and stalks for
exhibition purposes, we have se-
cured a few suggestions and
rules to follow in preparing and
caring for the same.
Here are the rules:
The grain should be cut a few
days before it would be ready to
harvest with the binder.
From the standing grain cut
the straw off right at the. ground
SO as to get the full length.
Be careful in handling the
samples to see that the straw is
not broken. y
Spread it out thinly ON boards
or on the floor, where it can be
exposed to the sun.
See that it never gets wet
after it has been cut.
Allow it to bleach until all the
green color is gone and the straw
is perfectly dry.
In case the samples are to be
small, you can spread boards out
and put grass over tine grain.
This makes excessive heat on the
grain, and bleaches it out to a
very bright color.
After the straw and grain is
all perfectly ripened by lying in
the sun, have the leaves peeled
off each stalk by itself.
In tying the samples use strips
of soft cloth Of some material
which will not cut the straw,
and tie them in three Or -FOUR
places and once just below the
head. s,s
sFhe sheaves should be at least
3 to 5 inches in diameter.
In tying them allow the heads
to hang downward
In relation to getting forage
exhibits fo- samples, select the
most leafy types. Gut them
close to the ground.
They should be hung in the
dark to cure SO as to obtain the
color of forage. Keep them
away from the sun to dry, with
plenty of dry air.
Then make up the exhibit
bundles 4 to 6 inches in diamet-
er.
Do not strip a single leaf or
from the stem.

OF tundra and marshes and
moss covered landscape is, in the
opinion of the pessimist, the big
gest folly of all.
1t is true that there are a Lot
Of things that need fixing, both
as regards the government policy
and the territorial officials rule.
And no matter how much Alas
ka may prosper and develop
there. will always be many things
needing fixing.
Most any one capable of read
ing industrial signs Alright must
know that the real development
of Alaska is but starting. In
dnstries are beginning to get on
a permanent basis. Residents are
making their real homes in Alas
ka. While mineral will continue
to be the main industry for sew
eral years to come, it is pioneer
ing many other industries which
will eNpand from year to year.
Some day farming and stock
raising will far outstrip mining.
The fisheries under sane conser-
vation will continue an inexhaust-
ible treasure house. Coal will
be mined on an extensive scale
some day. In fact, as often stat
ed, there is not another section
where the American flag floats
as rich in natural resources as
Alaska.
