Over one million young men of the
nation were registered in the nation
yesterday and will be subject to mill
tary service, and while these young
men who have just attained their ma
jority were registering for military
duty. Provost Marshal Crowder was
calling. out two hundred thousand
more men into the selective draft SER
vice and when they are in camp the
nations army will number over two
million men. Guess the United States

The democrats did not bring out a
candidate against Congressman
George NJ. Young. This looks as
though the democrats in this con
gressional district are willing to put
their country above partisanship. The
LaMoure Chronicle says it was tao
tical mistake and an injustice to
Young to bring out candidate
against him at the Minot convention.
We are inclined to the same view. No
congressman has q better loyalist rec
ord than Young, and several congress
men in the northwest have records not
so good.

Politics work out rather strangely
sometimes. Awhile ago Mr.. Shaw,
president of the city Commission of
Minot, was removed by Gov. Frazier
for reasons expressed by the executive
in matters in connection with the
cleaning up Of that city by Attorney
General LANCER some time ago. The
state compelled Mr.. Shaw to resign
after the case had been sent up to the
supreme court. He did so and the
state dropped the case. At the re-
cent city election Mr.. Shaw again be-
came candidate for the job and won
out by two or three hundred majority.
The dispatch in the .Courier-News
this morning says that 1886 wome n
voted giving Mr.. Shaw his majority.

The Times Record has license to
feel proud of its wire service and we
know that the people of the city APP
preciate getting this news in these
times way ahead of any other paper
that can possible reach here. Take
yesterdays dispatches for instance.
The Times-Record received the news
of the sinking of these American ships
a few minutes after one in the after
noon and we transmitted the news to
some of the public institutions and
made it known, then our paper was
on the streets for sale at a little be-
fore five, three or four hours ahead
Of the Fargo paper, and then when
the Fargo Forum did come those who
bought that paper were no doubt as
founded to find out that outside of the
ract that more extended accounts were
Given Of the sinkings of these vessels
the home paper had every bit of i'm
portant news that the Fargo daily
had in addition to that when the morn
ing, paper came from Fargo we no
ticed that it had identically the same
war news as we had the afternoon be-
fore with the exception of one item,
the rest they had in red ink to make
it show up. We are not making this
noise with any idea Of Boosting but
we simply want to show that the peo-
pie of Valley City and Barnes county
are getting right up-to-the- minute
war news. People living along the
500 can get this paper delivered to
them in the evening going east on the
$3.50 train from here giving them
later news than any other paper can
possibly get into these towns. Some
Of you business men down along the
500 should remember this and send in
your subscriptions.

Just a word anent this letting of
our public buildings to league speak
ers. First, we want to say that no
one is more loyal than the editor Of
this paper. Secondly, we want to
warn our people who are inclined to
become hysterical on this patriotism
question to sit on the safety valve.
We were repeatedly asked yesterday
by our farmer friends how we stood
on this matter that has raised such a
furore in the city and county-we
allude to the barring of league speak
ers from our public buildings. We
stated our position several nights ago
and we are going to do so again. We
said then and we say now that no per-
son either convicted of sedition or in
d;cted should be allowed to speak
from our public platforms and we also
said that any speaker who wants 70
get up and make clean talk should
be allowed to do SO. We believe in
fair play and a free expression Of
speech SO, long as that speaker does
not say or do anything that is detri-
mental to the governments war pol
icy or reflects on those engaged in
the prosecution of the same. Con-
gresham Baer made very clean and
patriotic speech in the court room last
night and we feel that no one has been
injured in any way by that speech.
Some may say that he had to do it.
That may be, but he did do it and he
has the same right as any other man
along these lines. Speakers of other
political parties have the same right.
Let's be fair in these things. There
are many things about the league pro-
gram that the editor does not agree
with and there are some that he does.
But that is neither here or there. We
must all exercise saneness and fair
ness and give other people the same
rights as we expect them to give us.
There are thousands Of farmers in
the league just as loyal as we are and
they are entitled to the same fair
treatment. That is our view of the
case. We stand first, last and all the
time by the government and the boys
in the trenches for loyalty and will
do our part to crush any and all who
talk sedition and treason. On the
other hand we stand for a square
deal to all.

SOIL PLANT FOODS REMOVED
Experiments Add Valuable information
for Farmer in Use of Commercial
Fertilizer.

A great many experiments, care
fully controlled, have. been made to
determine the amount Of soil plant
food removed by crops, and while
in general way they are more in
teresting than practically instructing
for the average farmer, yet they add
valuable information along the line
of the use of commercial fertilizers.
The results obtained from the corn
experiments show an average use by
full crops of SO pounds Of nitrogen, So
pounds of phosphoric acid and 70 40
pounds of potash. The husking corn
uses more nitrogen in proportion than
the ensilage corn, but this is no doubt
due to the prolonged feeding season,
developing and ripening the ears, the
ensilage being cut in green stage.
There is, however, quite wide range
shown in some Of the tests, which is
apparently due to the greater avail
ability Of the soil ingredients. For
instance, In full crops Of both en-
silage and huslzing corn its potash
has been shown varying from go to
100 pounds to the acre of crops, while
the nitrogen and phesphoric acid main
tain their level average.

FRESH AND RoTTED MANURE

There seems to be q difference of
opinion as to the value and use of
fresh and well rotted manure. Almost
oil authors on gardening recommend
the use of "well-rotted" manure for all
plants.
That well rotted manure is the
safest and best for immediate results
in general farm and garden practice,
Is admitted.
But large quantities of this fer
tilizer Is difficult to secure at all times.
Besides, manure which has rotted in
heaps, unless properly handled, has
lost a large share of its best fertiliz-
ing properties. The greatest objec-
ton to the use Of fresh manure for
Immediate plant growth is that it
burns the crop unless the growing sea-
son is very wet.
This, too, it will be admitted, is the
usual case; yet the bad effects from
the use of fresh manure arise from i'm
proper methods of applying the ma
nure and the working of the soil after
the application.
Fresh manure may or may not heat
In the soil and injure plants, accord
ing to the way it is worked into the
soil. Fresh manure, of course, UNDER
goes decomposition and produces heat
in the process; ana the more of it
there is in one place, the more heat
there will be given off.
Then to overcome the bad effects
of the heat to the growing plants fresh
manure should be well scattered and
well mixed with the soil so that no
large amount will remain in any one
place.

WINTER THOUGHTS OF THE
GARDEN

Making your plans for next years
garden? Well, plan for beauty, then
work for the plan.
Let your light shine in the back yard
that there shall be nothing hidden.
Have grass and shrubbery- in the
back yard rather than rubbish.
Some Of the prettiest things in the
way of plants, vines and shrubs should
be in sight of the kitchen window.
Hardy analeas are among the most
brilliant, hardy shrubs.
All the spireas, herbaceous or shrub,
are beautiful and hardy.
Let your kitchen window be pic
ture frame. Let the picture framed be
green things growing.
Let the green things be something
beside burdock, gimpson weeds and
cookie burrs.
Plan to screen the ugly views from
the back door. Vines will do it.
Get a root of the trumpet-creeper
from the woods, and plant it in the
back yard.
Get a strong stake beside it, and
keep the vine cut back until the shrub
habit is formed. 1t is beautiful.
The trumpet-creeper will not spread
unless you cut it's roots. When you
do you won't have to import any more.

MOST EFFECTIVE ROAD TOOL
Drag Can Be Used In Maintaining Pub
lie Highways They Are Easily
and cheaply Made.

The most effective tool which can be
used in the maintenance Of earth roads
is the road drag. The first drags were
made more than 80 years ago, but it is
only during the last few years that
they have come into general use. They
are easily and cheaply made, easily
operated and accomplish wonders if
properly used. Every mile Of earth
road in the state Of Texas should be
maintained with drag, and If the
time and money wasted under the pres
emit system Of working the roads,
(this does not mean that all time and
money so spent are wasted) were used
in dragging the roads, our states
would have some Of the best earth
roads In America.

WEEyIl. IN BEANS AND PEAS
Eggs Of Insects Are Easily Destroyed
by Funigation and BisuIphide
Of Carbon.

The weevil which makes the. buggy
beans and peas lays its eggs in the
maturing beans and peas, in the pod
during the late summer. The eggs
are not recognized by the naked eye,
and they do not generally hatch until
some time after harvest. The eggs are
easily and quickly destroyed by fumi-
CATION and bisulphide of carbon, with
o'.t injury to the beans or peas.
Place the beans or peas in an air.
tight vessei-a stone crock, barrel,
box or bin. Place shallow dish on
top Of the beans, and in this pour q
quantity Of bisuIphide of carbon,
which is heavy, colorless liquid, hay-
ing vile smell. The fumes are heavy
and will quickly sink through the mass
to the bottom. They are explosive, SO
one must be careful not to bring light
in contact with them.
Cover the vessel quickly and leave
it for "a hours. A tablespoonful will
be enough to fumigate the contents
Of five-gallon jar and one ounce is
enough for two bushels. All beans
and peas should be treated in this
way, after which they can be kept
for an indefinite period without In
jury.

GROW LARGE CROPS OF OATS
Farmer Should Provide Feed for
Horses, Sheep, Cows and Other
Stock-PIan Is Outlined.

The farmer who raises horses and
sheep, feeds dairy cows and fattens
beef cattle, annually should grow
large crops of oats. They should get
ripe enough to be cut and bound by
the binder, SO when dried out in the
shock the sheaves will not mold when
stored in the barn. These things at
tended to, with some kind Of power
and a modern straw cutter inb the
barn, the entire crop, as needed,
should be cut up quite fine and fed.
Fed in this way, the stock eats up al
most all the straw, and the grain en-
tire.
