Plan. Great Farmers Week.

Plans for monster Farmers
Week, to be conducted under the
direction of the State Agricultural col
lege next summer, has just been an.
nounced by President Ladd, following
the approval of the scheme by the
state board Of regents, at Mayville. I'm.
der the plan, a complete weeks course
in agriculture, dairying, stock raising,
farm machinery, will be given at the
college, probably the week after July
next summer.
Basing calculations upon the at
tendance attained at similar instftu-
lions in other colleges, President Ladd
estimates an attendance of between
1000 to 5000. Under the scheme class
work will be maintained for six days.
A likely feature is blowing contest,
which has become so popular in agri.
cultural districts.
Recruiting Office Closed.
Bismarck's recruiting Office, after
several weeks unsuccessful operation,
has been closed, and Captain Solen
and his staff have been transferred to
Fargo. Thesdearth of recruits is not
attributed to lack of patriotism, but
, rather to the uncertainty surrounding
service with the First North Dakota
infantry on the border. Much of the
blame for this condition is placed by
military authorities upon the letters
home, predicting from week to week
an early return of the troops.

Bumper Crops Reflected.
Nineteen tifteen's bumper crops are
reflected in the monthly report of the
state treasurer's Office for September,
which shows that there was almost .
million dollars more in all state funds
September 80. 1916, than was found
there September so. 1915. This big
increase is accounted for by the fact
that the North Dakota farmers big
crops last year placed them in posi-.
ton to pay up in full uneapired con.
tracts or to take up old contracts
which had become delinquent,

Prison Expenses Lower.

Prison Expenses Lower.
The cost of feeding prisoners at the
North Dakota penitentiary has been
reduced almost cents per head daily
by the adoption Of the family style
Of serving, all the convicts eating at
large tables, instead Of individually
from trays. This is one of the inter-
ing facts shown in report issued here
by the state board of control.
The daily food bill at the prison is
now 1888, or 21.75 cents for 40 officers
and employees and 2S9 inmates. In 1914
the average cost per day for food was
23.4 cents.
The North Dakota penitentiary was
the first prison in the world, states
the board of control, to adopt the sys-
TEN Of feeding prisoners collectively
at large tables, rather than Individual
ly, in their cells. The saving IN food
now averages $5.75 a day.

Military Outpost at Champion Store,
Near Donna, Texas.-The First North
Dakota infantry had its first taste of
real excitement when they spent the
night in trenches and participated in
q search for Mexican bandits and
smugglers on this side of the Rio
Grande, who we're expected to make
dash back across the border.
Company M of Grand Forks and
Company D of Minot broke camp at
Mercedes and left in motor trucks
for outpost duty. Company M was
stationed at this post, 10 miles from
Mercedes, and D took charge of the
outpost at Donna pumping station,
three miles from Champion store. Be-
cause of the fact that one of the only
fords Of the Rio Grande is located
near Champion store, the Grand
Forks and Minot boys have better
chance for a mix with the Mexicans
than any other outposts in this sec
ton.
Patrols from Company M have been
sent east and west along the river.
The Mexicans have been smuggling
Chinese across the border, committing
depredations on the American side
and keeping well in cover in the heavy
growth of chaparal. 1t is generally
believed that q Mexican band in this
territory is awaiting a chance to cross
the border for the purpose of Join.

WATERMELON
SEASON HERE
Obermeyers Shipping Out Many Car
loads-"Cants" Ripening Slowly

The big, luscious watermelons for
which Emmett is noted are being
gathered and shipped to all portions
of southern Idaho. Henry Obermeyer,
the watermelon king of the state is
now sending out four carloads week
and inside of ten days twice that num-
Der of cars will be shipped. Last
week four carloads were loaded, and
three have been shipped this week.
The cool weather of last week has
retarded ripening and delayed the
filling of orders which keep coming
every day in large numbers. Every
body seems hungry for watermelons.
Henry Obermeyer is continually on
the road and expects to be away un-
til the season ends.
A whole carload of big melons is
being made up. They range in weight
from 80 to so pounds each.
Cantaloups have also been slow in
ripening, but the present warm wealth
er is bringing them along rapidly and
will soon be plentiful.
