Grows Potatoes On
Old, Worn Out Field

w. J. Thompson, master, Maine
State Grange, IL years ago decided
to grow potatoes on an old worn out
field that had long produced moth
ing but little June grass. Mr..
Thompson first conceived the idea of
trying this experiment after observ-
Ing the ease with which successful
Aroostook county farmers of his ac-
quaintance grew this crop profitably.
He first selected one-half an acre
near the center of a forty acre field,
applied half a ton of high grade fer
tilizer and planted, cultivated and
harvested his potato crop according
to the best practice Of the time. On
this venture he made net profit or
, two hundred dollars per acre.
Since that time this successful far
mer has planted ten acres Of pota-
toes each year. following them with
oats and then seeding with mixed
grasses. On crop Of clover and two
or three of hay is cut each year.
1t costs Mr.. Thompson about $50,
OF which amount s35 Is for fertilizers.
to grow an acre Of potatoes, and
about $12 an acre for oats as no extra
fertilizer In used and no rent is charg-
ed up to the latter crop. He now cuts
forty acres OF Herds grnsa and clover
on forty acres where he formerly cut
twenty tons Of June grass on sixty
acres Not only is he securing bet
ter yield. but the quality il much
! better than that of the native grass. as
sheep can be wintered~ on this hay
alone while grain had to be used
! to supplement the hay made from
the native grass.
Some years have not proved profit
able but for period of twelve years
! Mr.. Thomhson has averaged $500 a
. year net profit from his potato crop
/ alone on q field that had been turn
out as useless.
The purpose of Mr.. Thompson's
experiment was not to raise potatoes
! but to see II idle worn out land that
had not been cultivated for many
.s.sars could be converted into a pay
,ng proposition by the use of COM
faercial fertilizers and with the aid Of
. l,irad help. What he has accom-
,aished is proof that it can be done.
+ t..ser farmers on large areas OF worn
s.4t' land can get equally good results
~ following the same methods.

Judge J. M. Hanley Is
Commissioned Major
ls Old.Time Army Man-Dutics of His
Office Left in the Hands of Judge
Neussle of Bismarck

Judge Hanley Of Mandan, last
week received his commission as
major in the Second North Dakota
National Guard regiment, and left
Monday with his command for
Charlotte, North Carolina, where
the North Dakota National Guard
will receive further training before
being sent to France. Major Ham
lcv saw active service along the
Mexican border last year, and is q
veteran OF the Spanish-American
war during which he served in the
PHILIPPINE Islands with a Minnesota
regiment. His many friends
throughout the Twelfth Judicial
District hope for his safe return,
and feel confident that he will ac-
credit himself with honor to the
state and nation both in the train
ing camp and on the battlefield.
Judge IIanley announced before
his departure from Mandan that
the work OF conducting the twelfth
district court has been left in the
hands OF Judge Neussle of Bismarck.
a precedent in handling the court
in the absence OF the Judge is found
in the Moorehcad, Minnesota, dis.
trict where Judge Nye has left his
official duties to captain Minnesota
infantry company. His court
duties are being executed by the
Judge Of neiehboring district.
A jury term OF court for Sioux
county will in all probability be
held this fall.

An Outrageous Stunt

Considerable complaint has been
heard, and justly so, over the act
ion taken by Young Sing, proprie-
tor of the Standing Rock Hotel,
who raised the rates for rooms at
the hotel during the fair from 81 to
$3.50 per pay. His action does
not meet with the approval of the
citizens Of Fort Yates, and accom-
modations were sccured for many
people at the Agency Boarding
school and other places through the
kindness and courtesy OF Supcrin-
tendent kitch and Principal Witzle-
ben. Other public spirited people
also opened their homes to strangers
as was the case during the teachers
institute this week. No more hos.
pitable people can be found in any
community than Fort Yates, and
the action on the part of heather
Chinaman, who has no local pride
or patriotism, cannot be too strong.

Election To Bond Fort
Yates School District
$1,000 Bond Issue for Fort Yatet School
District October 23rd-Should Pass
Without Opposition

An election will be held in Fort
Yates School District No. 4, Tues
day, Oct. 23rd, for the purpose of
deciding upon the question of issu-
ing bonds.o of the district in the sum
Of 81 900.
By issuing these bonds to pay the
outstanding indebtedness the dis
trict will be on cash basis. The
money can be secured from the state
school fund at 4 per cent for a per-
iod Of 20 years, while the warrants
draw 6 per cent interest. Unless
bonds are voted tax will have to
be levied to pay off the indebted
ness, and throw the whole burden
on the taxpayers now in the dis
trict. BY voting bonds the burden
of paying for the school houses will
be distributed over period of 20
years, by the end Of which time it
is likely that all the land in the dis
trct will be taxed.
The district has six good school
buildings aud three temporary
schools completely equipped with
books and furniture to show for the
Indebtedness in addition to having
paid the running expenses of main
tanning schools for the past two
vaars
