A new type of fruit, which has been named the tangelo, has been produced by the bureau of plant industry through a cross between the tangerlne orange and the grapefruit, or pomelo. As a class the tangelos resemble round oranges more than either of their par ents and are exceedingly variable. Two well-recognized varieties have pecn thoroughly tested and have been dis tributed to co-operators for further trial The tangelo has little acidity and resembles a tender and good-fla- vored orange more than a grapefruit or tangerine.

Campaign Successful

The federal campaign for the eradi- cation of citrus canker in the gulf states the first instance of the use of federal funds appropriated specifically for the eradition of plant disease, has established a new era in the pre- vention and control of plant diseases. according to officials of the bureau of plant industry. Throughout the exten- sive citrus developments in Florida no infected trees have been found for sev- eral months. In South Carolina and Georgia the work has progressed 50 satisfactorily that it is unlikely that further work will be required during the coming year, while in Alabama, Texas. Louisiana, and Mississippi more time will be necessary. The only method found practicable and effective in checking the spread of the disease is to burn down infected trees.

CITIES MUST
 HELP FARMERS

n any American city it may come tc pass that men who know how to chop wood or pick cotton or harvest wheat will have to close their offices and stores during the periods of sea- sonal strain and come out and help the farmers. All the other countries at war have done that and we must do it if the need appears-Clarenc Ousley, Assistant Secretary of Agri- culture.

Ride the Harrow

It is a waste of energy to plod along behind a harrow in the soft ground. It is hard work, and requires sturdy con stitution. A much better way is to pro vide a seat on the harrow and ride. In recent years riding attachments, similar to the ones commonly used on disk har- rows, have been employed on spike tooth and spring-tooth harrows. They add lit- tie to the draft and make available for this sort of work labor which otherwise could not be used.

Farmer Explains Act
As Due To Poor Sight

Linton, N. D., Oct. 3.-No action
has yet been taken in the case OF, An
ton Bockmaier. an aged farmer who is
nearly blind, who, in an effort to
frighten some boys who were raiding
his root house the latter part Of last
week, shot and instantly killed Fred
Schumacher, member Of q we'll known
Emmons county family. It Is alleged
that a band Of boys had for some
time past been making forays on gar
ages, cellars and storehouses, and it is
claimed that they already had once
visited the Bockmaier cellar, which Is
some distance from the house. Last
week Bockmaier again heard the
youngsters at work in his cellar, and
with the remark that he would give
the young devils a good scare" he
took down his shotgun, went to the
door and fired in the general direction
OF the cellar. When q son Of Book
maier started in pursuit Of the raiders
he tumbled over the dead body Of
Schumacher, who had been shot
through the neck and instantly killed.
Bockmaier is much distressed by the
tragedy. He insists he fred with a
view to shooting over the heads of
the young men, and he accounts for
the fatal results of his act by explain
ing that because Of his. poor eyesight
he did not make sufficient allowance
for the fact that the root cellar, upon
which his victim stood, is at a consid-
cradle elevation above the house from
which Bockmaier fired.

Railway Board After
Car Service Improvement

Bismarck. N. D., Oct as. ].
Aandahl Of Litchville, chairman, and
]. H. Calderhead Of Bismarck, secre-
tary Of the North Dakota railway com7
mission, are in Chicago to represent
North Dakota's interests in a confer
ence between the nations state rail-
way commissions and the interstate
adoption of a more equitable system
Of q production.
September 10. R. H. Ashton Of Chi
cago, regional director for the U. s.
railway administration, advised the
North Dakota commission Of a car
distribution embargo effective that
date on all grain consigned or recon
signed to Duluth. Minneapolis, st.
Paul, Superior, Milwaukee, Chicago,
st. Louis, East st. Louis, Peoria, Kan
sas City, st. Joseph, Omaha and Coun-
Gil Bluffs. 1t was announced that to
regulate shipments, permits would be
required, to be issued in corporation
with the United States food admins
tration, and that applications for per-
mits must be made by the shipper to
the grain control committee. This
rule was amended September rs to
read that application for permit be
made by shipper to the railway agent
at the point of origin.
The plan has not proven satisfac-
tory. In North Dakota the difficulty
has resulted not SO much from a short
age of cars as from the fact that
leaky cotton cars, that one could
drive an OK through" have been al
lotted to this territory, while the tight
grain cars designed to handle the traf-
flc in the grain regions have been
shipped east and south. Cotton cars
can be used for grain shipment only
shortage Of lining materials. Shippers
very earnestly hope that some better
arrangement may result from tomor-
rows conference.

FEW VISITED
THE GRAVE OF .
SITTING Bull
Last Resting Place of Chief
tain Weed-grown and
Neglected.

Fort Yates, N. D., Oct. 3.-In all
North Dakota there is nothing quite
so lonely and SO deserted and so alto
gether pathetic as the unkempt grave
of Sitting Bull, chief Of the Sioux,
which stands alone and almost forgot
ten in the midst Of a great field adj
joining the Indian agency buildings
here.
During the recent Indian fair, there
gathered Here $500 Teton Dakotahs,
many Of whom had followed Sitting
Bull into battle. But of all the hum
dreds encamped on the Sioux county
fair grounds, within a stones throw
Of the grave of Sitting Bull, few
seemed sufficiently interested to thrust
surrounding the barren stretch of
prairie and make their way through
the waist-high weeds to the little rusty
iron enclosure which shields the last
resting place Of the great medicine
man.
sAt the head Of Sitting Bulls grave
are piled in pyramid form several
large boulders or slabs Of the dun
brown sandstone common in the Mis-
souri, buttes. At it's foot is a simple
marble stone which bears this in
SITTING BULL,
CHIEF OF THE UNKPAPA SIOUX.
DIED DECEMBER 20, 1890. =
All around and about stretches a
dreary waste Of dusty, brown prairie.
There are no other graves.
And still. someone had remembered,
for on the grave, midst the rank
growth Of dead weeds, was the rem
nant of a cheap wreath, fashioned of
tissue paper, tinsel and reeds. It
could not have been there many
months. Sitting. Bulls last widow
he left several of them-died on the
reservation a few weeks ago, in pow
erty. His niece, who married DR..
| WEIGH, the Episcopal missionary at
daughter, grand-niece Of Sitting Bull,
Is a college student.
The man who killed Sitting Bull,
Red Tomahawk, did not attend the
| Standing Rock fair this year.
Red Tomahawk killed his superior
/! in the course Of duty. Tomahawk was
a member Of the Indian police dis
patched to Sitting Bulls home to ar
rest him during the Messiah craze in
say that he drew a gun, or that he
signaled to his r%etainers to fire. His
followers were in superstitious W Of
the man. Red Tomahawk took no
chances, but drew his revolver and
fired, killing instantly the most noted
figure in modern Indian history.
Then there was a fusilade of bullets.
At least a half dozen lives were lost
in this episode.
That more lives were not sacrificed
was due to the foresight of Major
Fechet in Smelling the brush which
surrounded Sitting Bulls cabin before
I the Indian police were allowed to ad-
vance. And the young shave-tail
lieutenant in charge Of the battery
whose shells sen hostile Sioux scurry-
ing like rabbits from the brush, was
Enoch H. Crowder, nov provost mar
shall general of the United States,
then a lieutenant fresh from West
Point. stationed with Major Fechet's
battalion at old Fort Rice.
