CENSORSHIP WILL
hit NEWSPAPERS

Washington, May 2.-The United
States government has locked cen.
sorship upon cables, telegraphs and
telephones, applying the cable prohi
billions to all lines, but operating
against telephones and telegraphs
only along the Mexican border.
President Wilson ordered the cen
sorship by proclamation and left 1t to
the war and navy departments to
work out regulations. These regula
lions were completed and the censor
ship ordered into immediate effect.
The censorship naturally hits news
papers and press associations chiefly
but it also involves messages incom
ing and outgoing of American bust
ness concerns and individuals.
The object of the censorship is tc
prevent information of military value
reaching the enemy and to prevent
spread Of propaganda Of interest to
Germany.
It constitutes Americas first tast.
Of real war time, ironclad military
censorship and the regulations are
sufficiently broad to give the govern
ment censors the broadcast powers over
messages,

HORSE LABOR on FARMS.

On the grain farm the heaviest
work for the horses comes III April,
May and III August. September and
October. The rest Of the time there
is practically nothing for the horses
to do. But enough horses have to be
kept during the year to take care Of
the work during these busy months.
When averaged UP the horse on the
grain farm only works three hours 4
day. These figures were secured in al
Investigation by the Minnesota Exper.
ifnent Station. Under the direction Of
Thomas Cooper. now director Of the
North Dakota Experiment Station. IN
this same Investigation It was found
that when the crops are diversified.
the horse labor Is better distributed
There is less work for the horses iii
the seasons that are the busiest On
the all-grain farm, and there is worl.
or the horses when there is no work
for the horses OH the al1.grai1 farm.

other funds shall be paid to all In
dams who have been declared COM
petent, unless the legal status Of
such funds prevents. Where prac-
ticable the pro rata shares of in
competent Indians will be with
drawn from the treasury and placed
in banks to their individual credit.
Elm many boarding schools
Indian children are being educated
at government expense whose par
ents are amply able to pay for their
education and have public school
facilities at or near their homes.
Such children shall not hereafter
be enrolled in government Indian
schools supported by gratuity ap-
preparations, except on payment Of
actual per capita cost and Transport
tation.
These rules are hereby made eff
fective, and all Indian Bureau adj
ministrative Offices at Washington
and in the field will be governed &C.
cordingly.
This is a new and far reaching
declaration of policy. 1t means the
dawn of new era in Indian adj
ministration. 1t means that the
competent Indian will no longer be
treated az half ward and half citi-
zen. 1t means reduced appropria-
tions by the government and more
self-respect and independence for
the Indian. 1t means the ultimate
absorption of the Indian race into
the body polite Of the nation. 1t
means, in short, the beginning Of
the end of the Indian problem.
In carrying out this policy,
cherish the hope that all real friends
of the Indian race will lend their
aid and hearty cooperation.

LOCAL LEADERSHIP

Many agricultural plans are like

up and blow up q few stars and
descend like the stick. The reason Of
this Is because few men can make q
continued effort. They will get up a
little scheme but at the first discour.

there is nothing to show for their &C.

Yet IL cannot be said that this sort
Of energy is wasted. Like the over.
tapping waves Of a tide. public opin.
ion is being formed. Things which
were ignored when crop improvement
began its propaganda, are now adopt
cd as a matter Of course.
Local leadership is the weakest
spot in this work. Somebody must

problem be strengthened to tackle

BREAD SUPPLY VERY SHORT

that no strike would be called during

issues, were made by Tony Weth,

bread output and the present supply
will not last twenty.four tours, &C.

PREVENTING RUST AND SHUTS.

tMatsaaI crsp lmprsvsmsnt ssrvlss.1
Barley is comparatively free from
diseases and insect enemies. It is.
however, affected with rust and smut.
but not to the extent that oats are
usually affected. Little has been done
regarding the prevention Of rust.
but considerable has been done In
the eradication Of SHUTS. Ordinary
smut can be handled with the for
maldehyde treatment the same as
oats. but the loose smut is hard to
eradicate unless the modified hot wa.
ter treatment is used. This Is a deli.
cate proposition and should be done
carefully. Place the barley in gunny
sacks and submerge in cold water
from seven to twelve hours. Remove
and drain for one hour, then sub.
merge for FIVE minutes in a barrel OF
hot water, held at a constant temper
Azure Of 100 degrees Fahrenheit. The
water ought to be thoroughly warmed
before putting in the barley because
It will cool of the water. Boiling wa.
ter should be kept near at hand
which can be added at intervals which
will keep the temperature nearly
constant, but should never be allowed
to come into direct contact with the
grain as its vitality will be injured or
destroyed. Be careful that your ther'
mometer is correct. You ought to get
yours tested at the creamery or the
cheese factory,
After this treatment the grain
should be spread upon the barn door
to cool before sowing. It should be
sown the same day or not later than
the day after treatment, for II you
don't look out It will swell and start
to sprout and It will be hard to get
It through the seeder.
In the treatment for smut, formal.
dehyde 10 the most desirable as II Is
easiest to handle. Smut is not 80 very
bad In barley this year, which ID for.
tunate because II you wish to make
a profit on crop you can put It In at.
tor all other crops are planted, except
corn and potatoes.
