HEMP GROW
ING STATE
PROSPECT. OF LAUNCHING NEW
INDUSTRY IN STATE ARE
PROMISING.

Year by year the soil versatility Of
North Dakota constantly being de-
monstrated by agriculture experiment
stations all over the state, is being
proven by its adaptibility to unusual
but profitable crops. As the economic
needs Of the nation progresses, all Of
its agricultural units are brought into
play to fill the need. n this respect
North Dakota is one Of the first states
Of the union, according to a survey
being made by the North Dakota De-
velopment League Press Burean.
Recent experiments conducted by
Manager j. G. Haney Of the Interna-
tional Harvester Company farm near
Grand Forks, prove the adaptibility
of North Dakota ssoil for the raising
Of hemp, and all indications point to
the addition Of a new industry to the
state. In line with efforts being made
toward a solution of the hemp prob
lem, the International experimental
farm will put out 5000 acres Of hemp
this spring, fom which binder twine
will be manufactured. The hemp will
be grown in not less than 200 acres in
a neighborhood, and FIVE carloads Of
hemp seed are now on their way here
with disposition. -.
A new domestic crop is needed for
the manufacture of binder twine in
vie wof the prohibitive rise in the cost
Of Mexican sisal to IS, cents q pound,
and it is hoped that when North Da-
kota starts furnishing here own twine
that the price will be reduced at least
one-half or two-thirds. a
! Past experiments prove that hemp
can be raised in the state with q
handsome profit to growers. Mr.. .Ha,
Iney, however, warns farmers against
raising such crop unless they have
provided themselves with the proper
machinery to handle it.

FIGURES COMPILED By DEvEL.l
OPMENT LEAGUE PRESS BUR-
EAU SHOWS RAPID GROWTH.

Compilation Of figures on the growth
and development Of North Dakota, on
(which the North DakotaY Development,
League Press Bureau Of Grand Forks
zhas been busily engaged since the first
sof the year, shows, q startling in-
-crease in the number Of homes in the
state during the last ten year period.
lEpscially emphatic are the figures
sshowing the agricultural development
-of the state. Approximately 130, 800
homes exist in the state, while in 1908
the number was 64,690 compared with
88;O73 homes in 1890. s62 percent Of
the 81, 1856 Of the North Dakota homes
are farm homes, compared with 68
percent in 1900 and 73percent in 1890
The number Of homes in the state free
OF ircumbrance at the present time is
61,364, while 4O,430 are encumbered
and 29, ,166 are rented.
Seventy percent or 5s,764, Of the
farmers Of North Dakota employ hir-
ed help, and their annual expenditure
for. this item is approximately $31,
100000. Ten years ago the. yearly
expenditure for labor by farmers ,o1
the state amounted to s1O,207, 900
Seventy mine percent Of the amount
paid for labor by North Dakota farm.

These figures are an excellent index
pftAe growth and develo lopment enjoyei
tysthe stats; and amply verify tht
inference, that the future has great
things in store for North Dakota.

Wartime Demand for Cotton.

Recent investigations in the use of
cotton in war show:
A 12-inch gun disposes of a half
bale of cotton with every shot fired;
a machine gun in operation vii! use
I'D bale in three minutes; in a ma
val battle like the one off Jut!and
over 5000 pounds a minute are
consumed by each active warship;
more than 10000 bales a year are
needed to provide absorbent cotton
for the wounds of the injured: one
change of apparel for all the troops
now engaged in the war represents
more than a million bales.

Sioux Falls, July 13.-Federal of

War HORROR


Chicago, July 13.-"Battle fobia, F"
a malady entirely foreign to America,
will soon be prevalent here, in the
opinion of DR.. Gordon S. Mundie. as
sistant neurologist at the Royal Vic
toria hospital, of Montreal, Can, who
is attending the annual convention of
the ~alienists and neurologists of
America here today.
1T is a form of fear resulting from
shell shock in the trenches that can
not be described" he continued. 1T
is the greatest problem of the war in
Canada, and 1t will confront Ameri-
ca as well.
Many cases are found in men
blown up in the trenches. Battle
fobia' victims usually return home
with the mind of a child, d~elighting
over some simple thing, like a dish
of ice cream and talking about it for
days"
The only remedy. the doctor said,
was to keep the patients mind occu-
pied with subjects other than war.

B0RAH LOSES WATCH;
PRESIDENT FINDS IT
Wear II on Wrist" He Advises
Senator, Who Receivers 1t
In Riding Boot.

Washington. Senator William Il.
Borah of Idaho lost his watch recently,
and President Wilson found 1t. The
senator was riding his horse In Rock
Creek park when he looked at his
watch. the present OF Occur d'Alene
miners. Then he showed 1t into the fob
pocket of his riding breeches-or
thought he did. When some time later
he reached for the watch II was miss
ing. Recalling the spot where he last
had looked at 1t. he galloped back, dis
mounted and, leading his horse by the
reins, scanned the bride path.
Just then President and Mrs. Wilson,
attended by a cavalry sergeant, can
tered up the path, and the president
stopped when he saw the senator.
Lost anything. senator?' asked the
president.
MY watch" replied Borah.
The president d~ismounted and joined
In the search. After ten minutes he
suggested that perhaps the senator had
missed the fob pocket and that the
watch had dropped inside his riding
breeches. Sitting down on a log, the
senator pulled Off his right riding boot
and found the watch.
As the president turned to remount
he said with whimsical b%landness:
why don't you wear a wrist watch,

A new Law
EMPLOYERS OF STATE ARE UN-
DER COMPENSATION LAW.

Pierre, July 13.-Employers of la
Dor in South Dakota should bear in
mind that they are now working un-
der the provisions of the new work
mems compensation law. That in
case of accident to any of their EN-
ployes they are liable for the com
%pensation to the employees as fixed by
the new law, and that the liability is
upon them unless they insure against
such liability, or except themselves
from its workings as provided by
law. In case of an exception filed,
where an accident occurs, in which
a suit is brought the employer is bar
red from a number of the defenses
among them that the employee was
negligent; that the injury was caused
by the negligence of a fellow EN-
ploye; and that the employe had as
sumed the risk of the injury" I'm
less such exception Is filed with the
state industrial commission, the EN-
ployer is bound by the provisions of
the law and its compensations in
case of accident. The provisions of
the law do not apply to farm labor.

unless by agreement between the EN-
ployer and his employees. but does APP
ply to all who are regularly employ

plies to all employers who employ
labor continuously in their affairs,
regardless of the lines of business

SILO PATRIOTISM
MEAN MORE DAIRY COWS AND
MORE BUTTER FAT FOR
OUR SOLDIERS.

Brookings, July 13.-Only 5000
of so 1000 farms in South Dakota are
equipped with silos. which mea
that enough corn fodder in this state
is going to waste every year to feed
a million and a half more cows than
we have at present. According to
Prof. G. Larsen, of South Dakota
State college, a half million more
cows would produce a hundred mil
lion pounds more butter. one-half
million more calves and enough skim
milk to feed these calves and a mil
lion more pigs. The extra amount of
butter obtained from the wasted fod-
der through silos would supply an
army of 1000 men for a year.
Therefore, "a silo on every farm
should be the slogan of every South
Dakota farmer as an indication of his
patriotism.
THE farmer who has a silo need
never worry about a late corn crop.
says Prof. Larson, for if the season
Is late or if the frost comes early,
he has plenty of good corn for the
silo. The silo is the farmers safety
valve In crop production. 1t certain
ly is a fact that corn is considerably
behind it's normal growth this year
so that there is some danger of not
getting a matured crop.
THE use of silos and silage in
South Dakota is not an experiment
for they have been thoroughly tested
in all their different phases. There
are many kinds of silos-but do not
delay the building of one just be
cause there are so many from which
to choose. The main thing is, built
a silo."
