BUILD UP TIRED LAND.
Nature Should Be Helped to Restore
Hard Worked Fields.

Hard Worked Fields.
[Dr. H. B. Brown, Mississippi station.l
Help nature build up the fields that
have worked too hard and have been
turned out to rest. If grasses, corn
stalks, leaves and other organic mate
rails are left on the land they will de-
cay and add humus to the SOIL Where
these materials are burned off, how
ever, all the organic substances are
given off in the form of gases and only
the mineral matter is left in the ash.
The improvement to the land If all
grasses and other growth were allowed
to rot instead of being burned would
be worth millions of dollars to any
state. The destruction of useful plants
is another harmful result of burning
off the fields. Fire will totally destroy
the seed of all the true clovers, which
are invaluable as soil builders. Many
of the most valuable grasses can be
killed by burning. Even Bermuda will
die if burned repeatedly. Perhaps the
greatest harm is done in the woods by
the killing out of seeds as they drop
from the trees and by killing the young
trees, thus preventing the reproduction
of forests.
Besides the damage done by fires in
the removal of plant food and killing
out of negotiations they greatly hasten
erosion. On the other hand. the corn
stalks and grasses in the fields and the
sage grasses in worn out soils prevent
the rains washing out gullies and help
to hold the water as it soaks into the
ground.

Maybe you think you are having
the time Of your life on your vaca
tion Just because you can do the
breast stroke. the side stroke and
maybe the English trudgeon, but you
don't know what real fun is until you
have learned the AMERICAN CRAWL.
This stroke is a product OF the
old L. s. A. It's the fastest stroke
in the world and the most difficult
to master. The arm and leg move
ment for this can be practiced over
a table that will support the weight
OF the body. or the arm movement
can be performed in a standing posi-
tion.
Stand erect, feet together and arms
extended straight in front Bring the
right arm straight down toward the
body. When the right is ready to
start back to position. then pull down
with the left. at the same time shov-
ing the right back to its original posi-
ton. This is position two II one lies
down TO do it, he gets better idea of
what the stroke is like in the water
When a person is actually swimming
the face is entirely submerged, ex-
lcept for the breathing.
Taking in the breath is accomplish
ed by turning the head to either one
side or the other on the downward
/ pull Of that particular arm. The back
ward sweep of the arm creates a cur
rent that tears the water away from
the face, giving one the chance to
breathe. Breathing in this stroke. as
: in all others. should be accomplished
by inhaling through the mouth and
exhaling through the nose. The pur-
pose of this is to prevent one from
strangling. II you attempt to inhale
you will draw water in with the
breath. which will choke you. This
can be avoided by breathing through
the mouth and exhaling through the
nose
I Another very important part of the
stroke is THE KICK The leg action
in this stroke is an up and down mo-
tion in which the feet are brought
\ just to the surface of the water. They
should never be allowed TO splash
There is no connection between the
leg movement and the motion of the
arms; each have their separate work
to perform. The secret Of the crawl
kick is to keep the ankle joints linn

swimmer through the water.

COX GAR THIEVES
CAUGHT A WITH GOODS ].

Dickinson, N. D.. Feb. 24.--For
some months, covering period Of
possibly: one year, box-car thieves
have been getting away with hun
dreds OF dollars worth Of merchan-
dIee, including children's wear.
clothing, shoes and similar goo.s
::slnspectors have been on their
trail for some t:me, but it was only
recently that these leaks or steals
were located between the division
points OF Mandan 2 and Dickinson.
These thieves usually looted cars
running from the twin cities to
western points, from whence serious
complaints were coming thick and
fast Of goods shipped out but not
delivered.
Il During the early part of this
year, a more thansusual amount OF
goods were lost. and the thieves,
thinking they were safe from de-
lection, became extremely bold
The plan Of operation seems to
have been as follows: One Of the
accomplices would get into box
car at Mandan, sort over the goods.
selecting such as he thought could
be easily disposed of and at a given
point between Mandan and Dickin-
son, a conveyance would be ready
and the goods thrown out. of the
ear and carted to their hiding place.
The net closed in on these men
on Tuesday, and, by carefully laid
plans; the purloiners were caught
red hot in the act Of stealing a
load OF goods from. freight car.
Tracing these, there was found
in the house of one Huff, Of Dick
inson, nearly $4,000 worth of mer-
chandise. Not content with this
class Of steals, they became expert
in stealing hundreds Of bushels of
wheat by this simple device. Au-
ger holes were bored: in the bottom
OF wheat cars. and when opportun-
tty occurred, a receptacle would be
ready to receive the leakage. This
form of steal has netted the thieves
over 500 during athe last few
months.
-Four men are now in Jail at
Dickinson waiting further probe
and evidence Of other goods stolen.
Much credit Is due. to the per-
sistent efforts Of the N. P. detec-
tives, who have at last landed four
