WILL DISCUSS
BIG TRIP
N, D. NATIONAL GUARD TO HOLD
SESSION At GRAFTON.

Official action by the national guard
association for the state OF North Da"
kota at a meeting to be held at Graf
ton the latter part of the month, at
which time the proposition Of taking
the regiment to the Panama-Pacfic
international exposition at San Fran.
cisco will be definitely passed upon,
is being anxiously awaited by the mill
tia men of the state. including the
Devils Lake boys. The rejuvenated
Devils Lake company stands ready to
send between forty and fifty members
on the iaunt to the Pacific coast pro-
viding the other companies take af11r"
native action on the proposition.
1t is estimated that it will require
a subscription of $50 per man, in ad-
dition to the state and federal appro-
priation to take the regiment to FITS
co and back. So far as can be learn
ed the militiamen in general are an
xious to accept the proposition, get
ting to see the exposition at an indl-
yjdual cos: of $50 per man, plus what
icidental expenses they might incur.
The suggestion of the trip to the
coast has served as an impetus or
considerable extent in filling up the
companies of the state 1t is expect
ed that with the final announcement
of the trip west, If that plan is follow
ed, that every company will be forced
TO maintain waiting list. BY this
means the militia will be able to ac-
cent the very best timber, instead OF
being forced, as in some cases in the
,ast. to open campaigns for member

the board at once decided to ask the
railroad officials for a conference on
this subject in the near future. Should
this conference develop disposition

submit plans for the approval of the
commission by April Is, the building
to be completed by August l, 1915
The petitions of the railway COM

A large amoInt of routine office
work was cleared up and arrange

to be had at the stated meeting at
Minot the first week in April, and for
the investigation of numerous COM
plants from all corners Of the state.
From present indications the commits
sion is going to have the busiest year
of it's existence.
In this connection one Of the most
gratifying indications of the changing
conditions in the development of the
state is shown by the many petitions
filed for stockyards. most OF the ap-
plications stating ,the large increase
in hog raising in the several sections.
Those applications come about equal

showing that many farmers have
abandoned exclusive grain growing

Fargo, N. D., March 19.-As result
Of the conference here today between

the various oil companies doing bust

the recent legislature, will 60 into ef-
feet at once, the. oil companies agree
ing to begin the payment of the 5
cent inspection fee from the time that
the measure passed the legislature
Credit Due Hanna.
Governor Hanna should be Civ N a
great deal of credit fer accomplish
ing this, as there was mix-up that
might have caused considerable delay
if not trouble. The 1911 legislature
passed an oil inspection measure,
which provided for an inspection fee
of IL 10 cents. This measure was
knocked out by the supreme court, as
it was shown that an inspection fee
of this size was a revenue producer.
When the Fourteenth legislature con-
vened, a dill was; introduced providing
for a I l-2 cent inspection fee, but
after considering the matter and gath
tering data on the cost of inspection,
the legislature finally passed the
measure with a fee of cents, but
failed to attach an emergency clause,
which would have made the measure
ineffective until July l.
Realizing the urgency OF the mat
ter, Governor Hanna called the ses-
sion ,that convened here today, be-
uieying that he could show the oil
companies. where it would be to the
benefit OF all to- have this law 60 into
effect at once by mutual agreement.
And this. is what he accomplished as
result OF the session.
sastf. Linde Explains Law.
e attorney General Linde was pres.
tht Said explained the law in detail
to the representatives of the oil com
paniss. All the oil companies, some
Blk; Of seven in number were repre-
sehted and after the attorney general
had explained the provisions of the
new law and Governor Hanna spoke
to them on the. necessity of immedi-
ate inspection, they all agreed to not
only have the inspection begin at
once, but to begin the payment of the
inspection fee from the time the bill
was passed by the legislature, thus
giving it the same effect as though
the emergency clause was attached
to it.

CAREFUL IN LOCATING BEES
Not Safe to Fasten Horse or Cow in
Place Where Little Insects
Pass for Water Supply.

A beekeeper not long since
chained q valuable COW in line be-
tween large apiary and a stream of
water where the bees flew in great
numbers for water At night when
she went for the cow she found that
the bees had stung the COW to death.
1t is never safe to fasten horse
or COW where bees would pass In
force, as the horse or COW might
switch its tail as a bee went by and
provoke it to use its sting, when all
the bees would unite in the attack, and
as the animal could not fee from the
attacking party, it would almost sure
ly be stung fatally. This fact must al
ways be remembered in locating an
apiary near street or road.
In case an animal is severely stung,
the best remedy is to cover the suf-
fering brute with blankets wet in cold
water. If person or animal is at
tackled, it is well to hasten into barn
or other building as the insects will
often hesitate to follow into the build
ing, especially if it is somewhat dark.

AUMUs AND SOIL FERTILITY
Decayed Vegetable Matter Is Very
important Constituent in Rem
dering Soils Fertile.

Humus is decayed vegetable matter
in the soil and is a very important
constituent in rendering soils fertile.
There are number of reasons for
this, prominent among which are the
following: First, the organic matter
contains the essential plant food ele-
ments and as it decays these elements
are changed into forms available to
plants. In other words, the plant food
is put in condition to be used again.
Second, as the organic matter decays
certain acids are produced and these,
acting upon the insoluble mineral con-
stituents in the soil, dissolve and rem
der them available to plants. Third,
many of the changes in the soil are
brought about by bacterial action, and
decaying organic matter furnishes
food for the bacteria so they can grow
and multiply and thus render more
mineral plant food elements soluble
in the soil water. Plants cannot take
up solid foods from the soil before
they can appropriate food it must first
be gotten in solution like sugar goes
into solution when put into water
Then there are other ways in which
humus benefits the soil. 1t renders the
soil dark in color, and dark soil abb
serbs more heat than light colored
one; that is of considerable advantage
in the early spring. A soil filled with
organic matter is also capable of hold
ing more moisture than one that is
deficient in this constituent. In dry
year this may mean the difference be-
tween a fair crop and complete fail
ure
These being facts, why don't we
pillow under more organic matter? Why
don't we grow more clover or other
legumes which actually draw plant
food-nitrogen-from the air and store
it up in their tissues later to be con-
verted into plant food in the soil?
Every man should include one or more
legumes in his rotation for soil build
ing purposes and thus maintain the
fertility of his farm.

Magnum Dulce is by far the largest
pepper in cultivation, and the most
prolific; no other variety gives such
large specimens. It IS very sweet and
perfectly reliable
Ruby King is one of the standards
and has for many years been deserv-

Of peppers, but in many respects it is
not equal to the above described
kinds.
Chinese Giant is very large. but not
as prolific as some of the other large
varieties.
