CLOVER MAY
REDEEM N. D.
BAD LANDS
Experiment Near Beach is
Apparently Successful,
Says County Agent.

Beach. N. D., April 2.-That the
great, naked buttes of the Bad Lands
or North Dakota may in a few years
be covered with sweet clover, Offering
q fattenfng pasture for thousands OF
head of cattle. is well within the
realms OF possibilities. is the belief Of
county Agent j.. Clayton Russell.
For the most part, the sou on the
buttes in the Bad Lands is a heavy
clay. and is highly alkaline, offering an
fmpenetrab1e surface to many varie-
ttes%of plants. Inc little nourishment
fol-, the roots of others which may
gatn-sa start, but 500 succumb. The
result Is that many of the buttes are
entirely bare, while others rave a
light growth of grass and sage brush.
Even in The draws, the growth of
grass Is often scanty.
One farmer. a little more curious
than the rest, planted a half acre of
sweet clover last year in the typical
bad land" soil, a part of which K
tends on his farm. ear Golva, 20
miles southeast of Beach in Golden
Valley county Although planted
late in the season. the sweet clover
a good thick stand of plants which to
all appearances were thriving and
healthy. Much interest in the well
fare of this planting is being shown
by the neighbors, as we'll as the
farmer himself, and all are waiting
to see how the field will turn out
this year.
To Try it on Buttcs.
This farmer, w. r. Mcneil,
planted the sweet clover in a draw,
but County Agent Russell has made
an extensive study of the soil and
moisture conditions in the Bad Lands.
and he is of the opinion that a trial
of the plant in various localities will
be worth while, and he is now max
ing arrangements with a number of
Farmers and ranchers in the Bad
Lands to SOW small fields of sweet
clover this spring under varying con-
ditions.
Even on the tops of the buttes
moisture car be found.' declares Mr..
RUSSELL. IF one scrapes through the
thin. hard baked surface.
IT am Convinced that the sweet
clover will grow in the draw where
there is a. more plentiful supply OF
moisture.
II am making arrangements now
for planting sweet clover in various
parts of the county in the Bad Lands
and will give it a thorough tryout
both in the draws and on the buttes
If sweet clover can be grown sue
cessfully in the Bad Lands. the pos
sibilities for developir> the cattle
Industry will be almost unlimited"

Pierre, S. D., April Knowing pic

General Byron S. Payne declared to-
day in answer to a question on the
subject of the law enforcement cam
paign which Is soon to be started

1T is not q question of whether
or not an admission fee is charged for

ut is merely the Interpretation Of the

prohibits the showing of such films"
However, the attorney general init
mated that news reels, tr%avelogue pic

BIG DEMAND FELT
IN STATE FOR
GOOD FLAX SEED

Agricultural College, N. D., April 2.
There is a good demand in North
Dakota this spring for flex seed. par
ticularly of the resistant varieties.
No. ia and No. SO, says State Com
missioner H. l.. Bollcy. who asks that
farmers Of the state who raised flax
last year and have on hand seed suit
able for sowing purposes, send a
sample to the pure seed laboratory in
order that the grower may be put in
touch with buyers.
Names of people with flax seed to
sell cannot be put on the lists until
they send in a sample and tell how
much they have for sale. Before it is
sent in, the seed must be cleaned or
put in the condition in which the
grower expects to sell it. The labor
atory report will tell whether it can
be listed as seed for sowing purposes
or not. What is here said about flax
seed applies to any other kind of
farm seeds Of good quality such as
millet, beans, peasc, buckwheat, tim
Othy, clover. etc.

MANY. SUPPORT
PROPOSED NAME
CHANGE ms. D.
Action Started by Mitchell
Calls Forth Various
Discussions.

Pierre, s. D., April 2.-The action.
of the board Of directors OF the Mitch
ell chamber Of commerce, at a recent
meeting, in unanimously instructing
the president of the chamber to ap-
point a committee for the purpose
of inaugurating a. statewide cam
paign to change the name Of South
Dakota to Roosevelt" is bringing a,
variety Of views from all sections Of
the state!
The principal necessity for the
change, supporters Of the move point
out, is that the similarity Of name
with North Dakota continually leads
to confusion in the states affairs, es-
pcccially in the minds Of people living
rt:note from this section of the coun-
try.
This has been emphasized time and
again, state officials declare, in the
selling of South Dakota bond issues.
Without going on record as favoring
the change from South Dakota to
Roosevelt" c. M. Henry, commits
sioner in the rural credits depart
ment, declares that it costs the state
nearly one half of n per cent more
to sell its bonds because of the appar-
ent impossibility Of an eastern man
to distinguish between South and
North Dakota.
Roosevelt Appropriate Name.
Attention is also called to the fact
that beside being the name of a for
mel president who was looked upon
as q sort of patron by the average
South Dakotan, the Hollandish word
roosevelt literally means rosefield
which is declared as appropriate for
a state where wild roses abound.
Had this state stuck by the name
of Dakota" as provided in the orig
inal constitution, at the time the ter
ritory was divided and the present
state of North Dakota taken the name
Lincoln" as was for a long time con-
templated, there would not now exist
the necessity of bringing about a
change, these people declare.
Those opposing the proposal of the
Mitchell organization, base their op-
position largely upon sentiment and
the confusion which they declare
would arise in the several years i'm
mediately following such a change
The word Dakota" they declare. has
the musical ring of all names of In
dian origin. like minnesota and
Iowa" and is typical Of the west.

Much surprise was ev1nced when
French was made lord lieutenant OF,
Ireland. Irish N~ationalists expressed
the belief hat his administration
would be characterized by r~epressive
measures. His rule in Ireland
proved a happy one, because Of his
strong stand against the radicals and
his declaration that a Sim Fein re-
public would never be established
there. In December, 1919, an unsuc-r
cessful attempt vas made to assassin.

motoring in ireland. His party "a

lieutenant escaped injury. For somK

Williston Ice House
Is Damaged By Fire

Williston, N. D.. April "a fire
starting from a brush pile near the
Williston Coal and Ice company's
buildings set fire t. one of the ice
houses and did $4,000 worth Of dam
g before it could be gotten under
control.
When first discovered it was
thought that the fire could be gotten
under control by the use of chemi-
Gals, but this failed. The fact that
only one hydrant could be reached in
the vicinity and that two trips to the
fire hall were necessary to secure suf-
ficient hose to get the water to tho
flame, the fire made great Roadway
before enectual fighting could be
done against it.
