''Chokeless'' Choke Cherry from
RerthOld Reservation to be.
Cultivated.

The world in the course of the next
few years may be indebted to Red
Bear. an ancient warrior of the Arick-
aras on Berthold reservation for a
luscious new fuit. DR.. NJ. R. Gilmore,
curator of the North Dakota historical
museum, has just returned from a
swing north through this state and
on to Winnipeg with Dr. N. f. Han
sen, professor of horticulture at the
South Dakota agricultural college, in
Brookings. The purpose of DR.. Han
sens pilgrimage was to procure for
domestication. breeding and hybridiz-
alton native fruits peculiar to the
northern part of the great plains. and
he was particularly interested in So
called "chOkeless" or sweet choke
cherry whose existance recently was
reported to DR.. Gilmore by Red Eear,
the Arickara. Drs. Hansen and Gil
more called on Red Bear at his home
on the reservation, and the latter
promptly piloted them to the habitat
of the chokeless choke cherry, which
is q large, sweet and pulpy fruit. DR..
Hansen dispatched to Erookings sew
eral fine specimens of this plant, from
which he hopes to develope some valu-
able additions to our native fruit re-
sources.
In addition to the chokeless choke
cherry, Dr. Hansen procured on this
trip wild plums, sand cherries, tracing
this fruit to it's most northerly home;
currants, gooseberries, strawberries
and eye-berries all Of which are ma
tives Of the great plains. The eye
berry, whose name is literal trans
lation of the ancient Chippewa appel
alton, is found only in the northern
part of North Dakota, although it is
common across the borden in the do
miniOn. 1t grows on a bush some
what similar to the strawberry vine,
but the berry itself is more like the
blackberry or deW-berry 1t is deli
cious.. and DR.. Hansen believes it will
be valuable when crossed with do
nestle berries.
Dr. Hansen already has with re-
markable success bred the sand cherry
to the Japanese plum, producing hy
brid which is superior to either Of the
parent fruits and which can success
fully be cultivated. In addition to
the food plants DR.. Hansen has ia
ken back to Brookings with him a
number of native vines, shrubs, flow
erng plants. and other perennials.
which he will develop for decorative
purposes. TO date practically every
thing that has been used in America
in the way of ornamental shrubs and
vines has been imported. DR.. Hansen
intends to see what can be done with

Stones In Form of Cross.

Staurollte is curious mineral, or
stone, found only In Virginia and
North Carolina, not very valuable but
interesting on account of n legend that
attaches to 1t. The name is from the
Greek stauros, n cross. The stone is
found In the form Of cross, or some
times double cross. Another name
for the stone is the "fairy stone," and
this also relates to the lenged that
the fairies living In the caves of the
mountains, on hearing the sad tidings
of the death of Christ fashioned these
crosses as mementos Of him. There
has always been some commercial de-
mand for the stones as curious and
they are worn as watch charms or on
chains with lockets.

clear, too, that Russia had been bound
to protect Serbia from Austria, and
that Germany understood this and
knew that Austria's attack on Serbia
meant war between Austria and Rus
sia, which also meant, of course, war
between Germany and Russia and be-
tween Germany and France, since the
latter was Russia's ally.
Nothing could have been more sig
nificant than this, that Germany, being
herself already prepared-down to the
last buckle-for immediate war, de-
reason that Russia was getting pre-
pared for war. We know this sort of
talk Of old in thousand trials for
cold-blOoded murder in our own coun-
try. "Self-defense |" shouts the muir
derer's attorney. "The deceased made
a motion toward his hip pocket" Ger
many stood with a bright new auto
matte revolver in hand, and Russia
made motion toward the hip pocket
where there was later found pen
knife with two blades broken. "Self-
Defense" Germany claimed loudly
through her attorneys. HE made n
motion toward his hip pocket; SO 1
had to shoot him."
The German chancellor declared in
the reichstag that Russia made this
fatal motion toward the hip pocket in
spite of England's effort to keep peace.
Russia "began it," said the chancel-
lor-and then few days later all Ger
many began shouting that England
"began It'll" This was when England
fulfilled her oath to Belgium, and Ger
many broke her own.
Evidence Grows Stronger.
The evidence went more and more
against Germany, and there were some
vicious sidelights which made the case

Wouldn't Be SIIohted.

The principal of school once had
occasion to lick very refractory pu-
Pill. 1t was very meager punishment,
but the child complained to his father
when he went home that day. The
next day the father paid the principal
n visit.
II understand" said the irate parent,
that you licked my boy yesterday"
II did," was the reply "but not Sc
verely."
"Well," said the father, II want you
to know that I am one of the largest
taxpayers in this place and my boy is
entitled to as good licking as any
other boy gets. If you slight him again,
you'll hear from me in no uncertain
terms"

Rope Maklno.

The rope Industry is largely depend.
ent upon Russian, Italian, American
and Manila hemp, the latter being far
more used than any other. With the
exception of Manila. all these hemps
are of the best flber-that is, they are
obtained from the bark Of the plant.
The hemp is cut, dried, and then
stacked In bundles. Later, 1t Is again
spread out and exposed to dew, frost
and sun, process that rots the gums

woody part of the stem then falls Off

stronger against her. The German
army was sent into the peaceful little
country of Belgium, which it turned
into slaughterhouse, with the owners
for victims, and the German govern
ment said that the German army did
this because it would help Germany to
conquer France. At the same time the
Germans in authority told great
number of lies to excuse themselves.
They said that they knew they were
doing a wrong thing, and that they
were breaking the law and violating
their oath; and nevertheless they
claimed that they were justified be-
cause the Belglans were wicked
people and France intended soon to
behave Tin respect to Belgium) as Ger
many was behaving. Altogether, the
thickness and cruelty of Germany in
the Belgian matter caused our opinions
of the German government Concern
ing who began i) to become much
darker. So far as Belgium went, the
Germans were finally and absolutely
convicted in the plain sight of all men;
convicted of lies as odious as they
were stupid; convicted of the most
abominable, cold-blooded plotting; con-
victed of a selfishness not seen on earth
since the seventeenth century and of a
cruelty not, known since the sixteenth.
OF course, men who were capable of
these things in regard to Belgium were
of character distinctly capable Of
having plotted the great war; and,
as they lied about Belgium, they would
lie about the rest of It.
Evidence Leaves No Doubt.
Since then evidence has piled up
evidence not circumstantial but so d.
rect that it leaves no doubt. This evil
dence Is colossal and conclusive, and
is almost all German. 1t is no longer
possible to debate the question, and
the court has decided-the court con-
ssting Of the nations of the world.
That court found that Germans plotted
to dominate the world and decided and
attempted to kill the men and women
and children of certain other nations,
and to continue the killing until these
nations submitted to German domina-
tion, after which all remaining nations
would be compelled to submit.
1t seemed incredible that there were
such ideas left over in the twentieth
century world. but there is no longer
