was we'll attended by the business
men of the city, and all present ap-
peared to be very enthusiastic over
the forming of a club of this kind
here. Several expressed their views
as to how things should be conduct
ed, and it seemed to be the senti-
ment Of the meeting that farmers as
well as business men be accepted
as members. The object OF the
club will not only be to promote
the welfare of the city in the regu-
Lar way by inducing new industries
to locate here, but by catering to
the farmer in EVERY way possible
and cultivating his friendship. The
clubs formerly organized here left
the farmer entirely out of it, but
he will be invited to come in th1s
time
~ The meeting to be held tonight
will be free for everyone to attend
and express his views as to what is
the matter with Bowbells, and how
this matter can be removed. Sec

Bismarck, Feb. 26.--Agents OF
the federal prohibition enforcement
department are at work among the
moonshine stills of western North
Dakota and are reporting fair sue
cess. In fact, all would be lovely
if they could only retain possession
of the "evidencce" after conflscat-

One of the agents dropped into
Mercer county recently and in Il
couple Of hours nosed out copper
wash boiler still which was turning
out raisin whiskey in five-gallon
lots.
Two bachelor homesteaders were
operating the distillery and admit
ted they cere selling their product
for SIS per quart and found no diff
ficultv in disposing of it,
The evidence was confiscatcd and
the moonshiners placed under ar
rest. The same evening someone
broke into the countv Jail and stole
the evidence. AS a result, the
noonshners had to be discharged.
They were promised more severe
t. eatment if caught again.

SCHOOL
A HUGE SUCCESS

One Of the most successful trac-
tor schools held in the northwest
ern portion Of the state was that
given here on Monday and Tuesday
or this week bv the Bowbells I'm
plement Co. 1t was attended by
over GO people who came to learn
what they could about modern
traction which is said to be much
cheaper and more satisfactory than
horse power when the operator
knows how to handle his machine.
Among the students were men who
had operated tractors for many
years, others who mad just bought
tractors, and still others who were
planning on buying one. Still 9TH
ers came out Of curiosity, but all
were given a welcome, and all re-
celved the same careful considera-
ton. The school was in charge of
Mr.. Ulrich, tractor expert from
Fargo, who delivered most of the
lectures, and he was assisted by O.
T. Davidson from Crosby. Most OF
the time was taken up by explain
ing the details of a tractor at the
Fraternity hall, and parts Of trac-
tor were used in order to make the
students more clearly understand
what was being said. The students
were taken out once each day and
given a demonstration of an Oil
Pull tractor owned by the Bowbelys
Implement Co., and this machine
was run through some deep snow
banks with practically no special ef-
fort on the part or the operator.
All present were given an opportun-
ity to ask as many questions about
tractors that they desired, and these
were all fully explained by the ex-
pert. In talking to a. number of
those who attended the school we
find all more than satisfied with the
time and effort spent in getting
here. In several instances we
found that some came for the spe-
cial purpose of getting something
cleared up that had been botherfng
them for several years. and got the
they wanted. Taken
all the way through the. school was
a big success. and all concerned
are more than pleased with the re-
suits obtained.

MAIDS Ejsing, who during the
past few weeks had been circulating
a subscription list to get funds for
the Seimers Band. which organiza-
tion is somewhat to the bad in a
financial way on account Of haying
erected band stand last summer
tells The Tribune that money is not
coming in as freely as it might, and
thought that it might help some if
we reminded the people of the city
that the band was one of the big
gest assets the citu has and at the
same time is costing the people
practically no money The mem
bers. of the band bought instru-
ments at their own expense, have
asked for no money with which to-
pay their leader, and during the
years since they organized have
never before asked the people of
Powbells for a single penny in the
wav of donations. On the other
hand they have never refused to
play on the street at celebrations
whenever called on to do so, and
streets many times every summer
without any cost to anyone. They
have done much to advertise the
city. and have furnished us with
much amusement. and inasmuch as
this is the first time they have ever
asked for a small donation in order
to pay for their band stand, MAIDS
believes that the residents OF the
city should dig up without saying a

Gumbo soil is made up of very
fine soil particles and is usually
found in low places. 1t often con.
tains alkali. The water from the
surrounding territory has flowed to
these low places. The soil particles
being ,fine.. and packing close to-
gether, but little of the water could
seep away, so it was left to evap-
crate and in so doing, the alkali
was left behind. s .g gss
One way of handling gumbo is to
get some organic matter into it, so
as to loosen it up. Manure is the
best; partly rotted straw is good;
blowing under a green crop also
helps; drainage is good, but it is
often difficult or expensive. Stand
ing water can often be gotten rid
of by digging a well 10%or Is feet
deep and allowing the water to run
into 1t. In case 1t strikes a layer
of sand or gravel. it works fine.
The point to remember is that
gumbo needs to- have something

GAMBLING CAUSES
LEAGUE ORIGIN

eeas~ ~ - ~us~ses
Washington. Feb. 26.-"Y oul
Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce
has been denounced for years. as
the greatest gambling den In the
world. Why, it was you that made
the Nonpartisan league, because
the farmers of the northwest got
tired Of your gambling" .
These were among the senti.
ments developed by Chairman Gron'
ma Of the senate committee on ag-
riculture today to Secretary Nc.
Hugh of the Minneapolis Chamber
Of Commerce, during heated dis
cussion of statement submitted
by the United States Grain corpor-
alton to the effect hat 228.000,00O
bushels of wheat were in the hands
of the farmers in January.
Gronna challenged this estimate,
sayir- that not more than 60,000.-
900 bushels, above seed require
ments, are now in the farmers
hands.
"I'd wager you months salary
that 1 can prove it, the senator
added aggressiVely.
Puts Exchange Secretary to Rout
Grain dealers can't GAMBLE" re-
piled McHugh, with a gesture as if
to ward off temptation. Cant
gambler" Gronna retorted. warm
ly. ~~""Well, I'd like to bring in
some witnesses on that point. ii
we had time. For instance, I'd
like to mention Mr.. Berry Harrison
of Minneapolis as one witness whose
int
you bring UP this matter. can help
you to rattle the bones of the fight
we have been in for rs years and
more" And then he mentioned
the accusation of the farmers
against "the greatest gambling den
in the world" and the reason for
the creation of the Nonpartisah
league.
McHugh hastily changed the sub
ject.
F. D. Wells of Minneapolis, sos:-
in-law of F. II. Peavey, grain deal
er, was the chief witness today in
the final session of hearings on the
Gronna bill to terminate the grain
corporation. Wells argued that the
effect of enactment of the bill
would be TO demoraiize the, -four
milling and -four jobbing trade,
and to make difficult the financing
of country grain buyers.
Gronna replied that the treasury
reports show that banks in the
Northwest, except temporarily in
Minneapolis. have more money on
hand now than ever and that no
reason for refusing credit to farm-
ers' elevators exists. f',
Must Control Own Affairs
"The only solution for this prob
lem" Gronna concluded, striking
the table with his fist, "is complete
organization by the farmers to con-
troll their own business-control as
complete/as you business men have
organized for your own business.
When the farmers are organized
they will not need any grain cor
noration to control them:' they will
handle their own affairs and know
what is going on"
The only farmer witnesses heard
asked for further extension OF
wheat price guaranty to farmers.
Simpson and Carpenter Of Oklaho-
ma suggested a guaranty for the
1920 crop, while Maryland farm
er wanted three years more of the
guaranty. The dealers, millers,
iobbers and bakers opposed any
further safeguards of prices 70,
