CORN, CLOVER,
PAY IN PIERCE

Rugby, N. D., Nov. 1.-Arguing
that corn and sweet clover are money
makers for Pierce county farmers,
County Agent H. R. Danielson has
submitted to the public the following
statistics CLEANED from personal touch
with the farmers of the county anil
from actual figures given him
VIM A Hamilton had 80 acres of
Blue Stem on land that was in corn
in 1921; the yield of wheat this season
was "a bushels of No. D. N. while
the yield on the same variety on As
acres of old land was only 16 bushels
or 8 bushels per acre less.
George Hanchett of Anamoose, rad
60 acres of Kubanka on last season S
corn land. The yield was Is bushels
Of No. l Durum and on 1O5 acres of
old land the same variety averaged
IL IL bushels per acre, or 2 1-2
bushels less.
Peter Olson of Barton had 60 acres
Of Kubanka durum on last seasons
corn land that averaged Is bushels
Of No. amber per acre, and 800
acres of the same variety on old land
, that averaged 10 bushels Of No. /
amber OF 8 bushels less per acre.
Mr.. Olson also had so acres of oats
on corn land that averaged so bushels
per acre by measure and it woll over
run considerable by weight.
| Hans Blessum of Rugby. had wheat
on summer fallow land that produced
20 bushels per acre and on old land
it produced IL 1-2 bushels or IL
bushels per acre. This seems tc
Indicate that corn crop has about
the same effect on the following cror
as summer fallow.
Some Clover Record
Not single unfavorable report Of
lesultes of sweet clover pasture has
come to the county agents office
from these who have been pasturing
sweet clover this season.
Fred Hapek of Anamoose states
that II calves and 40 hogs have been
pastured on six acres of sweet clover
pasture after the first crop was cut
for hay, but could not begin to keer
it down.
NJ. P. Cruden of Barton, pasturea
Is horses and Is cattle on IS acres
Of sweet clover and states that pasture
was in fine condition all summer. II
was far the best pasture that he eve1
had and would easily carry two heac
per acre all summer.
| W. S. Olson in Hurrican Lake town.
ship had 10 acres of sweet clover anc
20 acres of native grass pasture or
which he kept 5 l.orses and 5 cattle
/ The stock came Of in fine condition
! this fall and although the sweet clover
was only thin stand, he feels salts
fled that it is far ahead of any Other
pasture crop of our conditions.
/ D. A. Brown of Hurlcan Lake has
5 and one-half acres of sweet clover
and 40 acres of native grass pasture
on which he kept 10 horses and &c
J cattle. Mr.. Brown states that the
| stock came off in fin condition this
fall but that cattle spent more time
on sweet clover than the horses. The
sweet clover, in his opinion is great
pasture crop and would have carried
two head of mature cattle per acre 70,

Sentence Six
Boys to State
Training School

Grand Forks, N. D., Nov. l. Six
Grand Forks boys, II and IS years
of age, who admitted the theft of
some 40 automobile in Grand
Forks and vicinity during the last five
months, on Saturday afternoon We're
sentenced by district Judge c. NJ.
Cooley to the State Training school at
Mandan, until they are 81 years of
age.
The six youths were in juvenile
court on Saturday morning for hear
ing before Judge A. B. Guptill of
Fargo, juvenile court commissioner,
WHO examined them, and then took
them before Judge Cooley, recon-
mending that they be sentenced to the
state Training school.
Since early in June some SO auto
mobile thefts in this county have been
reported to the police and county
sheriff. About 40 Of those were ad-
n1itted by the youthful band appear
ing in court on Saturday. They had
worked in pairs, in trios, and some
times Individually
Asked by Judge Cooley as to what
their motive was for stealing other
peoples property, one lad said that
they did it just for the pleasure of
"joy-riding," and having little ex-
citement.
Long Search Ends
Four of the boys are II years of
cF \
their 18th birthday. The latter two
were granted the privilege of junevile
court procedure, by Judge Guptill, al
though they had just reached an age
where their offense could have taken
them into district court.
Apprehension Of the six boys ended
several week search that has been
conducted jointly by the city police
and the sherff's staff. When suffi-
Gent evidence had been accumulated
to warrant taking the lads into
custody, they were questioned on Fri
day by Assistant States Attorney w
B. Arnold, who aftelward filed the in.
formation against them. Judge Cup.
till's investigation yesterday morning
resulted in his recommendation that
the boys be sentenced, and the circum
stances in connection with the thefts
prevented his asking any clemency fol
the boys, he stated to the court.
One of the youngsters had been re.
sponsible for the theft of six ma
chimes; another had to his credit the
stealing Of six or seven, and all of the
helped to "pick up number of ma
chimes.
Most of Cars Recovered
Practically all Of the cars taken b,
these lads have been recovered by tn.
authorities. In a number of instance:
the machines were driven until the,
ran out of gas, or until something
went wrong with the mechanism
when they were Abandoned. The
boys had helped themselves to avail
able machines, not only lin Crane
Forks, but at other points near here
The cars usually came back the worse
for wear, the boys having removed
tops, windshields, ETC., whenever the,

ficAtion little more difficult.

COTTON MARKET
 RECOVERS LOSSES
Prices Close at Advances Over Week Before-Cr0p
 Deterioration Reported
By Associated Press

New Orleans. August 1S-The range of prices in the cotton market last week was ss to 152 points. The early sessions brought fairly wide declines while the later sessions brought strong recoveries so that from declines of Ss to 1o7 points under the close of the preceding week, the market moved up to ad- vances of to 45 points over.
 October traded down to 19.55c and reacted to 21.O7c, finally closing at 20.45c. On the close the list showed net losses on the week of IT to s6 points. In the spot department mid ding lost 12 points in the net re- suits, closing at 21.13c against 12.1oc on the close of thfs week last year.
 Early declines were due to The light rains scattered over the western portions of the belt, leading for while to hopes that the western drouth would be effectually broken. More or less selling also came on the market from traders who were un- favorably impressed by strike news on this side of the water and by political and financial news from abroad The recovery started on the let-up of the rains in the west and toward the end of the week many parts of Texas were complaining that they were worse off for want or moisture than ever, the light ra,ns having been of no benefit.
 Reports of sereve crop deterioration were a steadying influence from the middle week on and while these re- ports came mainly from Texas, they were also heard in Oklahoma and in sections of the central and eastern divisions of the cotton region which Hitherto have been talking in chesr- ful way of their crop prospects. These complaints were reflected in the two mid months condition reports that made their appearance during the week. one placing the condition at 67 per cent of normal, indicating a loss of 86 points since the end of the July condition period, and the other placing the condition at 69.4, indi- eating deterioration of 5.5 points.

TnlIadera yynter SuppI,

NutcN ohpPAS The State Health Department has con demned the water supply of the City Of Ialladega on the ground of public health Ihey contend there is a seepaee at times or the sewage into the spring and the two deep wells furnishing this city with It's water supply.
 IL is therefore imperative that the amendment to the constitution be passed enabling the city to levy an additional tax for the purpose of providing the town with a water supply.
 The water is new chemically treated to protect the health of the citizens, but this renders the same unpalatahle and is ex- penslve.
 The amendment, which will give Talla- dega the needed relief. will come up Tor approval at the November election, and has been ndorsed by the state Board or Health and by Governor Kilby.
