Senators esssed in Deadlock

Providence. r. L--ChlOrine gas was
let loose in the senate chamber Thurs
day after that body had been in session
since Tuesday at 2:O5 p. H. The
fumes were so strong that it vas i'm
possible to stay in the room and the
factions that have prevented adjourn
ment agreed to an hours recess in or
der to clear the gas from the chamber.
Three Republican senators and one
Democrat were overcome by the gas
and treated by physicians.
The gas was in a newspaper dis
covered behind the rOstrum draperies.
Governor Flynn, who appeared in
the chamber shortly after the discov-
cry of the soaked newspaper, declared
that an attempt apparently had been
made to ~suffOcate Lieutenant Cover

NORTH DAKOTA STORM
TAKES LIVES OF FOUR

Fargo, n. D.-Bearing the brunt of
n of the most sever wind, hail and
electrical storms in this state, last
Wednesday and Wednesday night,
North Dakota Thursday counted the
tOll-fOur lives lost, an estimated
property damage of more than $780,
600, and unestimated damage TO tele-
phone and telegraph wires and rail-
road lines.
Fears that the storm, which assumed
tornado proportions in the city of
Dickinson and extended in a radius Of
about 20 miles, may have caused adj
ditional deaths were expressed when
reports increased the former death toll
Of two to four.
1t was learned that G.. o. Engdahl,
s., a farmer living a few miles north
east of Bismarck. and James OsterlOth,
IS, a sheepherder, east Of GlOva, had
been drowned when they were caught
by rushing torrents.
The two other fatalities occurred at
Dickinson, when Joseph Froelich. 40,
and Joseph Freed. %, were killed be-
meath an avalanche of building mater
ial when a lumber shed caved in, as
they were closing the doors.

should be removed, thus insuring a
pure sample for the exhibit. After
the sample has dried sufficiently so
that 1t will not mold when gathered
in punches, it should be tied rather
loosely about the butt and hung up
with the heads down, taking care
that it is allowed to swing free on
all sides. Where but a limited amount
OF space is available the sample may
be divided into a number of small
punches, tied loosely and hung on a
wire.
In preparing samples Of grass for
exhibit it is often difficult to COM
bine quality, represented by fine leafy
stems, with quantity, represented by
long straw. Where the two qualities
are not found naturally it is often
possible to combine the long stemmed
portions of the sample that do not
have the desired quality with the
shorter stemmed portions with the
abundant leaves, into one bundle.

Handling GrasshOpper Poison
To receive the best results from the
use of grasshOpper poison and at the
same time protecting live stock from
poisoning the entomology department
at Montana State College issues the
following suggestions:
Don't use shorts in mixing bait,
use coarse bran and don't scatter
Jumps, have it thoroughly mixed.
Don't use bait left over from the
previous year that has become caked
and lumpy.
Don't let a bag of poison drop IN
noticed from the rear of the wagon.
Don't dump any left over poison in
a field or along a road. Burn or bury
deeply any poison that may be left
Don't store poisoned bran along
with good feed, where later it MAJ
be unrecognized and accidently fed to
stock.
Don't leave arsenic barrels or con-
~tainers where stock can lick them,
Burn or bury them.
Don't fail to clean thoroughly places
where poisoned bran mash has been
prepared. Sweep all floors and re-
move all poison material.

Reviying Alfalfa Fields


When an alfalfa field starts 70
MN out" it is usually a waste of
eI1Ort and seed to try to bring it back
Oy scattering seed in the thin places
according to tests carried on at the
montana Experiment Station. If the
stand is thin all over the field or if
the Held has been in alfalfa for MANY
years, 1t will be found more econ
omlcal to pillow the field and crop the
a n Tor grain for a year or two and
then reseed the entire field. In some
instances, however, very thin patches
or strips may be disked and reseeded.
A poor stand of a new crop NAV
sometimes be improved by the ad-
dltlon OF more seed, provided the soil
is loose enough and there is sufficient
moisture to insure termination and
growth. Early in the spring when
small cracks appear in the ground,
the seed may be scattered and har-
rowed in with a weighted harrow.
I~hickening stands by seeding with
the disk drill is probably the most
certain method. The drill covers all
the seed to a uniform depth and in
sures a more wen and prompt ger
minatiOn. In cutting the first crop
after the plants have started growth
the mower bar should be set high, as
clipping too close to the ground is
likely to kill the young plants.
When stands have been reduced by
winter killing or other causes, some
growers have obtained satisfactory
results by drilling a light seeding Of
oats in the thin spots or over the
entire field and harvesting the al
falfa oat mixture for hay. After the
hay crop is removed the field is pillow.
ed and the next season it is either
reseeded to alfalfa or some othel
crop planted.
Lifting Water for Irrigation
How high can water be profitably
lifted for irrigation purposes? Will,
the answer to this question must de
pend upon the value of the crop t,
be grown, H. E. Hurdock, agricul
tural engineer at Montana State Col
lege reports exceptional cases wher,
water is lifted 500 or more feet. How
ever, the last census, according to Nh
Murdoch, shows an average lift TO
pumping irrigation plants in the west
of Al feet.
Preparing Grasses for Exhibit
Grasses that are gathered for shov
purposes should be leafy and fin
stemmed according to Bulletin so o
the Montana State College Expert
ment Station, Gathering and Prepa1
ing Show Grains and Grasses"
Since grasses and forage crops ar
judged for their feeding value an
since much of the feeding value is
the leaves the reason for the sugges
ton as to leafyness is apparent.
According to the bulletin, grasse
should be gathered when the head
are well out of the boot and at a tim
when the leaves are not only plent
full but of a fresh green color.
After cutting the sample close I
the ground so as to obtain all of ii
foliage, the sample should be cure
in a manner to preserve its fresh, n;
tural green color. This may be a.
complished by spreading the samp
on a clean floor or table in some on
building, taking care that no strcr
light strikes it. AS the sample is b
ing spread out, still green, all dri'
stems, weeds and foreign grass,
