.BAPTISTS VOTE
$4,000 BONDS TO
BUY PASTORIUM

Bonds to the total of $4,000 were
authorized by the congregation of
the First Baptist church at yester-
day mornings services for the pur-
pose of purchasing a pastorium and
repairing the property.
The report of the pastorium~ com
mittee was made by Chas. Lingo,
chairman, who informed the congre-
cation that an offer had been OBJ
tanned by the church whereby it
could purchase the residence proper
ty located at the southeast corner of
Lee and Finn streets, now occupied
by E. L. Carswell, for $4,700. The
property embraces a two-room house
in the rear and a large lot, and its
purchase was recommended by the
committee. 1t was stated that il was
considered by the committee to be de-
sirable to enlarge the smaller house
on the lot and make some other
changes in it so as to make it more
valuable rental property, and that
certain repairs were necessary on the
larger house, all of which it was
thought the $1,000 bond money above
the purchase price would coover.
The committee proposed that the
bonds bear per cent, and it was
stated by Mr.. Lingo that he believed
all of the issue would be absorbed
by members of the church. The is
sue to run for 10 years. The au-
thorization was by unanimous vote of
the congregation.

SMALL COST OF
RUNNING TRACTORS

1t takes about 21a gallons of fuel
an acre to run a tractor for blowing
in the Dakotas, according to reports
from several hundred farmers recei-
we'd by the United States Department
of Agriculture. These reports, sum-
married. in Farmers Bulletin 1885,
cover 2, 3, A, and pillow tractors of
various makes.
Slight differences in fuel consump-
ton are found between machines of
different makes, and there is usually
a slight lower consumption where
gasoline is used than where kerosene
is uesed. These differences, how
ever, are so small that the average of
2R gallons may be taken as coming
very close to the actual acre consump-
ton for any type or size of machine.
The more recent reports received
IN this regard indicate that farmers
are havinb much less trouble than
formerly in handling kerosene-burn-
ing tractors. Nearly two thirds Of

THIS MAY BE A LOCUST YEAR"

1t is being predicted that the
"seventeen-year" locusts will appear,
perhaps in very large numbers, dur
ing the spring and early summer of
the present year, throughout large
portions of the United States. 1t is
said of this so-called "locust" that it
is not locust at all, but is one of the
members of the grasshopper family.
Moreover it appears that it has a
thirteen-year period as well as a
seventeen-year period.
The fact that this troublesome in
sect suddenly appears in large num-
bers, at intervals of thirteen or seven
teen years, is regarded by many as
very mysterious and has long caused
approximations among uncilNlllzed
races; however when it is understood
that it requires from thirteen to
seventeen years for these insects to
develope beneath the ground, their
sudden appearance at the end of such
periods is cleared of much of its
mystery.
The year 1868 was the greatest
locust year in the history of this
country. In that year brood known
as nineteen" which is the largest
of the thirteen-year broods, appeared
together with brood ten, thus causing
an unprecedented locust pest. While
it is not expected that there will be
any repetition of such conditions dur
ing the present year, it is suggested
by those who have made a study of
the matter that the danger of des
struction of vegetation by big swarms
of locusts this year is of sufficient
Importance to justify the taking, by
those likely to be affected, of the few
known preventative measures which
it is possible to apply.
The United States Department of
Agriculture has long been studying
this matter and is prepared to fur
nish, upon request, detailed informa-
ton as the the best methods to pur-
sue in order to minimize the dangers
to agricultural interests from this
pest.

"The number of troops which had

the tractors on the Dakota farms re-
porting burn kerosene, and the re-
suits are apparently satisfactory, par
ticularly in view of the fact that
the present price of kerosene is but
half that of gasoline. However, the
advantage of gasoline in ease of ope-
ration and in the additional assur-
ance it gives that the engine will keep
running steadily makes many men
prefer the more expensive fuel.

The Report of
General March
Statement of Part Played BY Our
Army In Europe.

Gen. March, in a recently publish
ed report, gave out for the first time
official figures of American Army
operations in France, number OF
troops engaged, casualties, and the
rehabilitation of troops. Among the
interesting statements made by Gen.
March is one to the effect that the
number of men in the army will not
be allowed to fall below 100000.
The report is in part as follows;
There have been some estimates
published of the number of Ameri-
cans who fought in the battle in
France, and guesses have varied by
very large numbers. We have an
estimate now prepared in France
which gives us perhaps as near as
can be determined the number of
United States troops that took part
in actual fighting.
