GETSFILTERED
WATER ATT
New Plant Is Placed Into
Operation, Officially An
nounced by Engineers
STILL WORK TO Do|
City Water Not to be Clean
at All Times For a Few
Days, Engineers Say

Bismarck's new water works ;s !,
operation, city officials announced
today.
After few days of tests waite,
is being pumped through the new
1iltration plant and pump house, fill
tered and pumped direct to the city
The plant rs not in complete on
Grafton at all hours, and for few
DAYS there may be times when un-
satisfactory water is pumped to the
city. 1t is necessary first to clean
the reservoirs and to flush the city
mains before clean, filtered water
can be assured at all hours of the
day, according to City Engineer At
kinson.
Early this morning city water
was the worst in a long time. 1t
was explained that water was pump
ed direct from the plant, through
the mains and back into the reser-
voirs, this being a necessary part
of the flushing and cleaning process.
Because the contractor for the in
take has not completed this, water
is being taken from the river
through the intake of the old plant,
and then is conducted into the new
plant through a six-inch temporary
pipe. In the new plant the water
goes through the various processes
the mixing chamber, sedimenta-
tlon basins and filters, and then
may either be pumped into the res
ervoirs for storage and distribution
to the city, or may be pumped di-
rectly into the mains.
Samples of water as it comes from
the Missouri River, after it has been
in the mixing chamber where chem
icals are introduced, the sedimen-
tation basin where ingredients set
tie out of it and finally as it comes
from the filters, shows that in each
process the water becomes more
clear.
The east reservoir of the plant
was cleaned last night, and the other
two will be cleaned as quickly as
possible, and battles removed.
The water as it comes from the
filters is being pumped under the
'lty's own power. The Diesel oil
burning engine which generates
electricity is in operation at the new
olant on the high lift pumps. No
est has been made officially, but
t was said at the plant that but
lbout $12 of crude oil had been used |
n four days.
The new filtration plant and |
station is located a short
distance from the river, seven feet
lbove the highest known flood wa
ers, according to engineers, between
he two bridges.

won the Phi Beta Kappa scholarship
honor, can write "A. b., A. NJ. and
l.. l.. d. after his name, and was
regarded in the University as man
with brilliant future, according to
friends here.
Americas entry into the World
War found Mckay Il preacher in
rural Virginia, after seven years
study for the pulpit. He finally de-
clded, after much onsideration, that
1t was his duty to enter the World
War in Uncle Sans uniform. He
did. He enlisted in the Navy. His
educational qualifications were
found out, and he was sent to
training school, from which he
emerged as an Ensign. He served on
the U. S. S. Florida in the North
Sea, lonely, heartbieaking ,ex-
panse of the ocean. Day after day,
month after month, the Florida kept
lonely vigil, on the watch for Ger
man submarines, with the gray sky
overhead and the black water be-
meath. Mckay suffered mental
transition, induced partly by worries
over certain conditions back home.
He was discharged and returned to
preaching, but his nerves were shat
tered. Psychiatrists told him he
must quit.
Mckay, however, had left the de-
termination which won him high |
sch elastic honors. He decided to
become a shoemaker. In November,
1921, he began a course of training
with the Veterans Bureau for this
SoCdtioH ne StdItcu dl Oliver |
Spring, Maryland, and he was grad
uated from the United States Vet
nlans Rehabilitation Center at Fed
eral Park, two years from the day |
he started,
Mckay was graduated as an expert |
leather worker. Two months before |
the time set for his graduation, at |
1is own request, with directors con-
.urring, he was declared rehabilita- !
ed and removed from the Veterans |
Bureau payroll. He had saved some |
money. With this he opened a shop !
n Milwaukee. He is doing we'll, not |
,nly as a shoe cobbler, but as an |
expert leather worker at his little |
shop, called "The Disabled Veteran |
Shoe Repair Shop" He employs an
other man and is busy.
A friend received letter from
Mckay in which he declared he was
coming back to his old self. His
shop, ~he said, is usually crowded
with children. They come to hear
the jokes and wit of an educated
mind, and to absorb the good advice
given by one who had preached many
sermons from the pulpit.

rat Harrison, of Mississippi. de-
c'ared today in sounding the kew
note at the Democratic Nation,
Convention.
In an address condemninp tho Po-
puDl' can administration-its policies,
ooth domestic and foreign-the tenn
porary chairman called on Democrats
everywhere, with victory within
their grasp" to unite against a com
mon enemy.
"Oh for one in the White House :"
ne SAID, whose heart might be
melted and courage aroused to svm
pathize and fight. Would that we.
once more might see in that exalted
position one with the courage of a
Jackson, the militant honesty of n
cleveland, the matchless statesman
snip and the fine fighting qualities
OF Woodrow Wilson"
Senator Harrison ran the gamut of
the Harding Coolidge administra
ton In series of biting criticisms.
A large part of his speech was taken
up with a resume of the disclosures
OF Senate investigating committees.
The oil policies, in particular, came
in for vigorous denunciation.
"Show this administration an oil
we'll, he said, "and it will show YOU
foreign policy"
Strikes at Administr ration
America has taken the measure
OF this administration" he contin-
ued. ut might have been able to
free itself from the sectional idol
airy and to have looked beyond the
skies of New England. 1t might have
heard the groans of the distressed
farmers of the West and sympathe-
tically responded. 1t might have
sought markets and removed the
tariff jams in the channels through
which our surplus products move. 1t |
might have visualized world condi-
tions and courageously assumed the
part befitting great nation. 1t
might have reduced living costs, re-
ieemed pledges to the soldier, fol-
owed definite domestic program,
md adopted broad and statesman
ike foreign policy. But, even then,
{ would have availed if nothing with
IS carnival Of corruption.
"The least that the American peo-
'le expect of their public servants
S common honesty. They will for
rive their passivity, overlook their
ndiscretions, and, too often, forget
heir impotency, but to them corrup-
ion is inexcusable, graft is indie
ensible."
Referring to Senate inquiries, Sem
tor Harrison was unsparing in his
rticisms of former secretaries,
)enby and Fall, former Attorney
ieneral Daugherty, Charles r. For

bureau and former Senator New

QUICKLY AVAILABLE
NITROGEN PAYS UNDER
CORN RESULTS SHOW

A striking example of the value of
top dressing of quickly available nj
trogen with corn was shown on the
farm of Mr.. H. " locke in Ebert
county this year Sulphate of ammonia
was the form in which it was used,
according to county agent w. p. HUE,
and the results obtained show the va
lue of this material particularly in a
dry period at critical time in the life
of the crop.
The acreage of the plat selected for
the demonstration and check plot was
slightly over one and one-half acres.
This was divided as carefully as posi-
ble both in respect to fertility and
moisture retaining qualities.
A light application of ready mixed
fertilizer was used at planting time,
and a prolific variety of corn was
planted. When the corn was about
three feet high, 200 pounds of sulphate
OF ammonia was applied to one Of the
plots. no other top dressing being used
on the other area. The cultivation Civ
en- each was identical.
There was a severe drouth at the
time the ears were forming and the
plot on which no top dressing was us
ed was practically ruined, the yield
being five bushels on the threequar
ters of an acre.
The yield from the area on which
sulphate of ammonia yas used, was o.
course greatly reduced, but every stalk
bore two or more ears, the total yield
being 20 1-2 bushels of thoroly dry
corn. slightly more than five times the
return from the area On which no top
dressing was used.

AWARDS AWAITED
WITH INTEREST

On Friday the gold pencil prizes
from the Denmark Drug Company to
the pupils making most meritorious
standing in the sixth and seventh
grades will be awarded. The teachers
of course, will furnish the class mark
ings and also those for effort and for
conduct, but for politeness a vote has
been taken in each sixth and seventh
grade room each pupil naming three
girls and three boys who according to
his judgment are most eligible to the
honor.
Out of this bal1otting will be chosen
the two candidates of each grade best
filling the other conditions. Not only
is the award a commendable incentive
for better efforts but also the stress
made on popular approval will have a
salutory effect and Mr.. Denmark and
Superintendent Bennett are both to
be credited with wise and helpful in
fuence on the grammar school chill
dren.
