MORE ROAD WORK PLANNED

Plans are under way for some er-
fective government road work next
year. 1t is certain that the govern
ment road will be completed to Lin
ten from point four miles north IN
the spring. In addition, there will be
nine miles of grade put in from Haz-
elton in the direction of Mofht. This
will cover most of the bad road be-
tween those towns.
Arrangements are also being made
to continue the government ROAD south
of Linton. It will go southeast Of
town to point north Of the park
and then directly south, crossing the
creek near the ball park. A bridge
will be put across the Beaver. This
will make almost straight road to
Strasburg, as well as giving better
road connections to the ball grounds
and to Seeman Park.
Eventually these roads will have to
be covered with gravel. Otherwise,
after every rain they will be rough
and badly cut up.

STUBBLE SOWN RYE INCREASES
HOPPERS

That winter rye should not be sown
in stubble in grasshcpper infected
areas is the opinion of Stewart Lock-
wood, Entomologist of the United
States Department of Agriculture
Farmers in regions where the grass
hoppers have given trouble should RI.
duce their acreage Of rye to min
imum," says Mr.. Lockwood, "as field
of winter rye planted in stubble gives
a good firm bed and furnishes ideal
conditions for the development of the
grasshopper eggs in the soil. One
farmer in Adams county told me that
he plowed all of his land but 40 acres
one fall, and on that 40 acres enough
grasshopers were produced to destroy
the grain crop in the whole town.
ship. Last year we recommended a
reduction in the acreage of rye planted
in stubble as means Of fighting tae
hoppers, and as result the acreage
was cut from 100000 acres sown in
1918 to 100000 acres sown in 1919. ("

HOGGING OFF CORN GIVES BIG
RETURN

Wine corn usually is considered not
as a money crop, but one to clean up
the land, yet the North Dakota Agri-
cultural College received return of
$45. per acre by using 48 shotes to
hcg off 16 acres of flint corn in 1918,
according to j. H. Shepperd, of the
Experiment Station.
The hogs were turned in the field
September 9Th, when they averaged
109 pounds in weight, and left there
until Nov. 18th, making an average
gain of "a pounds, cr a gain of 281. rs
pounds per acre. They were market
ed at 16. 81 cents, which, allowing for
shrinkage, gave a return of $45. 81 per
acre.

A HORRIBLE BALL GAME Z

The postponed game between Bis
marck and the local players
was played Tuesday afternoon on
the Linton diamond before large
crowd. The weather was threaten
ing, but only a light sprinkle did not
delay the game.
The Lintonites were badly demoral-
lied, and did not put up the game thai
they have up to date. Fred Petrie,
regular first-baseman, was away from
home, and his absence proved to be
serious for the team. Otto Becker,
regular short-stop, was also out of
the game. Several players had been
secured from surrounding towns to
fill the vacancies, and the team did
net play very well together.
Ronning did his usual excellent
work in the box, but his support was
of the rottenest. He also hit like
wild man, getting one clean double
and another clean single. Bismarck
connected several times, and Wers
credited with two home runs, one OF
which appeared to most Of the crowd
to have been foul. The game finally
ended 10 to / in favor of Bismarck.
Two doubles in succession gave Linton
her only score.
The Lintonites seemed certain Of
defeat in the first inning. Ronning
hit the first man up. What might
have been a double play went for two
men on bases when a pop fly landed
safe between first and the pitchers
box. Later, a tumble at first gave
the Bismarck men great help, With
the help of couple of hits, they
scored twice in the first frame. After
that, they seemed able to score at will,
The game was one of the least
interesting for the audience seen here
this year. The Bismarck players
were strong On ragging, and the gen.
eral feeling was that we were more OF
less stung.

to the Nonpartisan newspaper graft

the sponge, unable to longer exist un-

That the state taxes for state pur-
poses will be but a few tenths of a
mill less this year than last despite
the fact that upwards of s1,000,0O0
will be derived from entirely new
sources is the assertion of F. E. Pack
ard, assistant attorney general and
formerly head of the tax commission.
Tax Commissioner George E. Wal
lace has issued statement that the
taxes for state purposes will be about
seven-tenths of mill. This nigh,
be true, says Packard, if Wallace
means the actual salary expense of
state offices, but he fails to consider
the operation Of departments, the So
called state industries levies for the
interest and sinking fund, the soldiers
bonus, and the more or less healthy
deficits Of nearly every department
and institution. Last year the total
levy for all state purposes was 2.4125.
This year it cannot fall much below

wallace and the Nonpartisan
League should not shout too loudly
about economy" says Packard.
In the face of failure to reduce the
state taxes, the powers that be will
have the accounting Of roughly $780,
900 revenue from the income tax,
$4,000 from the stock and bond
tax; $416,000 from the oil tax, which
will be added to the general fund, all
Of which is an entirely new source Of
