Lie DoCtlneau CcunGy institute is
the matter of big interest at the
school this week. We are glad to well
come back Superintendent Murphy of
Grafton now a member of the Board
of Administration. Miss Randall, In
structor in Primary Methods, is a
well known expert in this field and
it is pleasure to enjoy a visit at our
institution from Miss Randall.
The Rev. Mr.. Bickle delighted the
school on Thursday morning with a
visit and an Inspiring address. The
regular program for that morning
was a discussion by students and
faculty of the so-called bonus legis-
lation passed by Congress and vetoed
by President Harding. There was time
for only few of the speakers w..4o
were scheduled to discuss this prob
lem and a week from Thursday ,hs
subject will be continued.
On Monday morning last week the
school listened to a talk by Mr.. Hacks
on the subject extra Curricula Ac-
tivities as Factors in Higher Educa-
tion." A summary of this address fol-
lows:
If only two percent of the youth of
America complete four year college
course, then the community may be
right in expecting leadership from
the college graduate. Training for
leadership is acquired in the extra
curricula activities of college, while
the curricula prepare the students for
the professions.
If dentist, doctor, a lawyer, q
minister, or professor is equipped to
act as leader, he is at once prepared
to serve the community and himself.
If he can sing or lead musical or
ganization, he makes himself popular,
and at the same time adds to the art
of the community. This talent, if pos
sessed at all, is developed at college
by the glee club, the band ard various
other musical societies. The educated
man or woman must be ready at all
times to express an opinion publicly.
To serve well, he must be able to
uidhC q odllS JOuSIllCut e1h1 pICSSHt
the arguments in persuasive and in
offensive manner. He can do this if
he has used to an advantage the col
lege library, the debating club and
the literary society. He must be able
to meet and favorably impress diff
ferent classes of people. In his fra
ternity either he or his irritating i'd
iosyncracy has been annihilated. On
the athlete field he has learned a
score of lessons: he has learned self
control; to cooperate and sacrifice
for the team; to give rival his just
dues; to be willing to lose worthily;
to become better and stronger rather
than blame fortune for a loss. Do you
wonder that each year the Big Ten
Players are better represented in
Who's Who than the Phi Beta Kap-
pa? In the social functions of the
college the student learns what is ap-
proved by the best people Of the col
lege and develops his individual re-
sponsibility of conduct.
i Finally, the greatest training u
student gets is the contact with the
great men who are instructors at 8

WALSH FARMERS FIND SELECT.
ED, TREATEDa sPUDs PAY
BEST

Grafton, N. D. Oct. 24-Farmers Of
Walsh county who treated and select.
ed their seed potatoes in cooperation
with County Agent F. c. Hathaway
increased their production IS percent
this fall and thereby decreased Their
cost of production per bushel by that
amount, according to reports received
by Mr.. Hathaway from a number OF
his cooperators.
Nearly a hundred Walsh county
farmers raised seed plots this year
and were visited by the county agent,
who helped them in treating and Sc
lecting, and made field inspections
pointing out the diseases found in the
fields and in the seed plots. One Park
River farmer reports some results
typical of mary of the experiences of
the cooperators. When the county
agent made bin inspection on his
farm early this spring, he found that
Is per cent of the tubers had stem
and infections, S percent rhizoctonia,
10 per cent scab, 8 per cent dry rot
and per ceht mechanical injury. The
farmer was shown how to select the
disease-free potatoes for his seed plot
and how to treat the tubers with cor
rosive sublimate.
This fall the seed plot showed only
/ per cent of the plants diseased and
an IS per cent stand. In the field,
where the potatoes were not selected
there was only rs per cent stand and
seven per cent of the plants showed
disease. The seed plot yielded 140
bushels of potatoes per acre this fall
and the tubers were free'from disease
while the field averaged only 10
bushels per acre with many of the tu-
bers scabby.

TELLING TRUTH
COST HIM JOB

SA@AIio ny t1IS SOAIlSE-N6WS Llat
the state mill and elevator at Grand
Forks are far from completed and not
in shape to start operations now in
business like manner, are borne out
by two letters received by this publi-
cation yesterday. One of these letters
is from the bond department of the
Bank of North Dakota and the other
is from a millwright now employed at
the mills.
The letter from the Bank of North
Dakota is dated September 13, 1922
and ia addressed to Mrs. Peter John
son, Drake, N. D. In this letter this
significant statement is made.
"THE INDUSTRIAL COMMIS-
SION HAS NOW ADVISED THAT
NO MORE BONDS OF THIS SERIES
WILL BE FORTHCOMING UNTIL
THE STATE MILL AND ELEVA-
TOR AT GRAND FORKS HAS
BEEN COMPLETED WHICH PROB
ABLY WILL BE SOMETIME DUR
ING THE LATTER PART OF THIS
YEAR OR THE FIRST OF NEXT
This letter was written to Mrs.
Johnson to explain why the state had
not delivered to her the bonds she
had purchased more than a year be-
fore. She was told there were no
bonds left and none would be issued
until the Grand Forks plant was COM
pleted.
Inside Info Given
The letter from the millwright who
for obvious reasons did not wish to
have his name published gives inter
esting inside information about con-
ditions at the mill. Under the date of
October 16 this man writes:
Please find herewith a check for
$5 to reLew my subscription to the
Courier-News.
''I see that the Grand Forks Herald
is making lot of fuss about the state
mill and elevator, but have failed to
see them make a true statement yet.
I was working here two years ago,
and I started here again last spring,
and am still working here SO I don't
have to read the newspapers about
the condition at the mill and elevator.
"The idea to start the mill before
it is anywhere reudy is some joke,
and is it an expensive one, too, as
they have to put up temporary hang
ers and boxing, which means extra
work. I don't suppose the city will
furnish the power for nothing. Well,
it shows that somebody is very unfair
to the taxpayers of our state.-A
Millwright at the State Mill"

PREVENT ANIMAL DISEASES
Measures Many Ailments Could
Be Thwarted.

Many of the diseases suffered by
live stock on the farm could be pre-
vented by proper precautionary meas
ures, according to DR.. Robert Graham
of the University of Illinois. Nearly
all diseases to which animals succumb
are preventable. he declares. and the
surest way to keep your animals
healthy is to adopt such health meas
ures as will prevent them from get
ting sick.
The continuous use of old feed lots
year after year without regard to ro-
tation Is one way to spread disease
Each class of live stock has Its own
peculiar ailments. which may be
largely eliminated by the rotation OF
feed lots.
Keep yourself posted as to what dis
eases are prevalent in your nelghbor-
hood. and then do everything In your
power to keep your W live stock
from getting them.

can be picked off, and the seams care
fully scraped to remove any excess of
white lead. The old way was I o tie
the mended article together before
putting 1t away to dry, but this is not
easy to do.
II the above directions are care
fully followed. a fairly permanent
cement Is obtained. and the dish may
be considered once more as a useful
member of cupboard society.
Riveting Requires Skill.
Professional china members use
rivets of silver or copper wire in adj
dition TO a %cementing process. This
rlveting requires special equipment
and special skill and is beyond the
average housekeeper. Nevertheless, 1t
Is well for her to know that such
work can be done If the dish Is valu-
able and worth putting into the hands
of a skilled workman. An expert in
this business can often supply mis-
sing pieces, with the design restored
If need be. and glazed TO appear
practically the same as the original.
The home worker can supply mis-
sing pieces with fair success IL they
are not too large. For this. plaster-of-
paris Is worked up with a good quality
of liquid glue or other kinds of liquid
cement until the mass is as stiff as
putty. Work some of the material into
the space to be filed. mold into place,
and rub with a wet finger tip until
smooth. The material used acts as Its
own cement.
When the plaster-of-paris piece Is
perfectly dry, It may be tinted with
artists oil paints to look like the rest
of the dish, and with a little care any
interrupted design may be continued
or replaced. Over such painting as
this, when II has thoroughly dried, i
Is well to apply a coat of llght-colored
waterproof varnish or enamel.

MORE BROOD S0WS ON FARMS
Increase Of $4,000 Over Year Ago
Is Seen, Due Largely to Big
Stock Of Corn.

There were 1~2.424.O0O breeding sows
on farms April 1. the United States
Department of Agriculture estimates.
This is 1927, 900 animals more than
on the same date in 1921 and repre-
sents an increase of Ill per cent.
The large corn crop last year and
the unusually large farm stocks of
corn are given as the explanation of
the large increase In breeding sows
this spring. Corn was worth more as
pork than as corn. and hogs were
needed to eat the corn.
The number of hogs Is quickly re-
sponsive to the general economic
situation, the department points out.
In April 1918, the number of breeding
sows was 9.5 per cent more than on
the same date In 1917. due to high hog
prices as a result of war conditions.
The figures on April, 1920. show a de-
cline of 10 per cent for the year ended
on that date. The reason for this was
that the price of corr vas relatively
too high to encourage the feeding of
hogs.

FEEDS FOR WORKING HORSES
Mature Animals Require starehy Or
carbonaceous Rations to
Furnish Needed Fuel.

The character Of feed required by
horses that are working Is quite
different from that required by young
growing animals or dairy cows. Ma
ture horses need starchy or carbon
aceous feeds to furnish fuel rather
than large amounts of protein. For
this reason corn and timothy hay may
be fed more literally than such pro-
TEN feeds as wheat and alfalfa. Oats
furnish most of the protein needed,
and n good rule for feeding a horse
doing moderate work is given as one
and one-fourth pounds of hay and
three-fourths pound of grain to each
hundred pounds of wheat, but horses
at hard work are sometimes given as
much as one and o~ne-fourth pounds of
grain.

TESTING FOR TUBERCULOSIS
Can Be Carried on Without
Destroying Industry.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agrfculture.)
That testing cattle for tuberculosis
and the cleaning up of infected herds
are having a permanent effect in re-
ducing the extent of the disease is
shown conclusiyely by figures recently
collected by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture from inspec-
tors in charge of the eradication work
In various parts of the country. The
inspectors were asked to supply
figures on the results of three or more
tests on badly diseased herds, those
that had not less than 10 per cent OF
reaetors on the first test. The first
test on more than $4,000 cattle in
these bad herds showed that 20 per
cent had tuberculosis. Another test
from which the ~reactors had been re-
moved. showed only SO per cent Of
the disease. BY another six months
the percentage had gone down to %.
A fourth test on more than $4,000 of
these cattle showed only 1.S per cent
of tuberculosis.
The reports from which these
figures were taken show that under
normal conditions herds very badly
diseased may be established as rela-
lively free In q short time. They also
show that eradication work can be
carried on without destroying the
