WHAT SIZE TREES TO PLANT

The one to two foot seedlings
make the best size trees for start
ing a grove, according to C. B. Wal
dron. Dean of the Agricultural De-
partment, North Dakota Agricultur-
al College. He also recommends
nlanting the trees feet apart in
rows 8 or nine feet apart, 8 feet is
rather narrow for cultivation with
many OF the farm tools. The. rea-
son for planting the trees SO close
together is that 1t is the intention
to have the trees shade the ground
as soon as possible so that the trees
can smother the weeks which they
will usually do in 4 to s. years. Ex-
tension Div. N D. Agr. College.

 Msss Garrison was arraigned be fore Judge Tallman this afternoon on the charge of murder. Her attorney Thos, M, Askren asked for further time to enter plea, Askren declares that the girl is on the verge of a breakdown that she sleeps only when drugs are administered.
 Dudley M, Storrs is still in jail al though no charges have been pre- ferred, save that of abduction filed in okanagan country against him.
