Tuesday evening a pleasant party
of nineteen Saharaites enjoyed an
oyster supper at the home of our re-
firing post master, Mr.. Guy Johnson.
After indulging in excellent oyster
soup until some of us were in actual
misery, no paregoric being obtainatle,
we adjourned to the school house and
there sought surcease from physical
misery in dancing. This being other
than Saturday night, we danced until
the wee small hours o. the morning.
This was one of the delightful little
parties our folks so often give in
honor of arriving or departing friends
thus helping to create warmer glow
about the hearts of our little COM
munity. Mr.. Johnson left the follow
ing Friday for an indefinite stay on
the coast, or if Uncle Sam wants him,
a possible trip to France. l reckon if
things don't begin to shape up pretty
soon in Europe we will all be singing
"We're coming, Father Woodroe, four
hundred thousand strong" and mean
ing it, too.

Advice is useless unless it is taken Sc
r1ously by the person to whom it is given
ana acted upon in accordance with the
wishes OF the person giving the advice.
When some people see some other people
prosper, their first idea should be to find
out how this prosperity is attained. 1t is
. not the result Of luck or chance, but is in
accordance with some set plan or principle
AS rule, people who prosper will give
freely the advice that will enable other
people to do the same thing.
Most people insist upon having their
own way and doing things according to
thoir own notions and then they proceed
to envy others, who have worked out sue
cessful plans for making a living in the
easiest possible way and with the greatest
possible success. If you are disappointed,
ma out the cause and change your mode
or living in order to obtain the greatest
results out Of living. When you open n
bank account and begin saving regardless
or how old you are, you are on the right
road. Keep to it until success or death
overtakes you.
Usually success will oyertakc you and
you may yet die happy when your time

SEED GRAIN TESTS
ARE EASILY MADE

Large seeds, such as corn, beans
and peas, germinate most success
fully between moist folds of Canton
flannel, while medium-sized seeds.
such as wheat, oats, clover. and al
falfa, germinate best between moist
folds of blotting paper. The very
small seeds, such as timothy, red
top, alsike, and white clover can
be most successfully germinated on
top Of moist blotters.. -, %.
To make a termination test, two
ordinary plates may be used. The
cloths or blotters should be dipped
in lukewarm water and spread upon
one of the plates. One hundred
seeds should be counted from the
sample which is to be tested, and
placed between cloths or blotters CT
on top Of blotters, depending on the
kind of seed to be tested The
plates should be Kept in room at
ordinary temperature. from 68 to
70 degrees Fahrenheit
The total count of the sprouts at
the end of the sixth day will indi-
cate the value Of the grain for seed.
If 80 or IS seeds grow, the germin-
alton is good; but below 80 the val
ue of the grain for seed is' doubt
full.

No More Federal. Farm
Loans Made in North Dakota

affect mortgages given to the fed
eral land bank because it impa1rs
instruments Of government which
no state has a right to do. Priority
of lien of the federal land bank
must be reserved We are reluct-
antly forced to the conclusion that
no loans can be made to you in that
state''
"Oficials of the Federal land bank
are exceedingly sorry this> matter
came up because the business from
North Dakota was most gratifying.
We tried from the beginning to rem
der the best service we could, rea-
lizing that interest rates were high
er than in any other state in our
district In nine months opera
tions,, loans closed in the various
states of our district were: Wis
consin, $1,30O,OO0; Michigan. ST.
100000; Minnesota, SO 900;
North Dakota, $6,500,00o. Total
$12,e00,0oO'
This does not mean we showed
favoritism to North Dakota but
shows the demand for our service
is greater in North Dakota than any
state in our district.
"The federal land bank system,
which uses It's mortgages for secur-
ity for bond issues, must exercise
the greatest precaution and operate
strictly according to law to protect
bond buyers to the fullest extent.
This may not be imperative with
farm mortgage bankers as We un-
~ks NJ ",
the state of North Dakota to their
fullest capacity. This is, Of course
entirely legitimate as they do not
operate under such strict restric-
tions as the federal farm loan act. "

Ed Drinkwater, who during the
past five years has been employed
as deputy sheriff of Burke county.
authorizes The Tribune to state that
he will be candidate for the Office
of sheriff at the primary election to
be held next June. There probab-
ly isn't better known man in
Burke county than Mr.. Drinkwater.
nor a man better qualified for the
place, unless it is sheriff Heath, and
we predict that no matter who else
comes out for this place, Ed will be
among the high men when the
votes are counted. 1t must be ad-
mitted that lawlessness has been
kept down to a minimum since sher-
iff Heath and Deputy Drinkwater
took charge of the Office, that in
practically every case when crime
was committed the guilty one was
apprehended short time later
whether he chose to beat it to an
other state or stay here and pretend
he was innocent. Mr.. Drinkwater
has proven his worth in the sheriff's
office many times over, and II a
mans qualifications count for any,

anyone else to try to land the place.

Bismarck, March 21.-The- home
guard organizations in the state
were given legal status in pro-
clamation issued late last Saturday
by Governor Lynn J. Frazier, thus
creating an active state militia. Un-
der the executives proclamation

listing in the state will be given an
opportunity to become a part of the
state militia by making application
2tos the adjutant general thirty days

the recognized military head Of the
state. Under past conditions it has
been runlawful for nome guards to
organize and arm themselves. The
object of establishing. state mill
tia will be to provide military pro-

The final decision of the federal
farm loan board is that no more
farm loans will be made in North
Dakota under the federal law as
it now stands. The board holds
that the seed and feed laws as re-
enacted by the special session uf
the state legislature, raises COLI
flict between the federal and state
loan statutes and that the federal
farm loan board will not make any
further loans until the matter is
judicially adjusted. E. G. Guam
me, president of the federal farm
loan bank at st. Paul, has issued
the following statement of the con-
ditions.
According to- this decision, the
federal farm land bank of St. Paul
must cease doing business in the
state of North Dakota as long as
this condition exists. Quamme said
in a signed statement issued by
him. "All loans that were signed
and recorded in the state of North
Dakota before January 20 will lie
closed. All loans allowed after
that date will not be closed.
"The federal land pank of St.
Paul will do no more business in
tho state of North Dakota as long
as the seed bonding law remains in
full force and effect. Should the
seed bonding law be repealed or de-
clared unconstitutional by the su-
preme court of the state or any fed
eral court we could of course i'm
mediately resume operations.
Authoritative opinion from Wash
ington holds as follows:

is in violation Of the federal consti-
tuition so far as it's operation would
