City Auditor Belongs
On Tax Board, Ruling

Ruling that the city auditor is a
member of the city board Of equaliza-
ton. having the same powers as the
mayor and city councillors, has been
made by Attorney General Jim Nor
ris. The opinion was given following
a query by A. r. Watkins, city audi
tor Of Fargo.
One Interpretation of the statute
would make the auditor only the
clerk Of the board. the attorney gen.
eral held. but the history Of the law
would indicate that the legislature
not only intended for him to be e c
rotary but to have the same powers as
other board members.

Tests MAIDS on International
Farm Indicate New Meth.
DDS Viii Bring Results

Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 81
Greatly increased farm profits BY
cleaning and building up soil in the
Red River Valley are seen by the
demonstration work on the Interna-
tional Harvester company farm at
Larimore, It was stated by J. G. Haney,
OF the agricultural extension depart
ment Of the concern, In an address at
Grand Forks. Tests on the Harvester
company farm, which Is one of six
operated by the International in the
United States, have shown yields
much above the average OF crops in
the Red River Valley. the speaker
said.
I'VE consider It fortunate for this
region that our demonstrations in
dictate that simply good, sensible
farMing-prOper rotation Of crops,
clean seed. good cultivation, using all
the manure available after feeding a
part Of the crops to livestock-will
greatly improve the yield and quality
Of crops" MI. Haney declared.
Bad Years Are Test
The real test of our demonstration
farm work comes during the bad
years. and under adverse conditions.
Our wheat yielded 20 bu. per acre in
1928 and was damaged by heavy
winds in the spring. The yield this
year was better, 21ia bushels, with
IL to 1870 per cent Of protein. Other
crops have yielded in proportion. Our
Weed 49," which was solid quack
and SOW thistle In 1926. yielded 80 blu.
Of rye in ~; s. bu. Of oats In %; and
~ blu. Of oats this year. This land
was too wet to seed to wheat last
spring. and the oats were damaged
because Of late seeding.
when work was begun on the Lar
imore farm in 1923. we were a little
uncertain as to whether the same
method used on the Grand Forks
farm which was discontinued the year
before. would show similarly favorable
results. as the land at Larimore Is
much lighter. Adding mineral ferti-
lizer might have made the improve
mcnt Tor rapid. but we have not
been able to see any material benefit
from adding small amounts Of com
rnercial fertilizer to corn.
Big Profit on Heifers
TN February, 1927, 81 head Of thin
heifers were bought for the Larimore
farm. They were fed hay and silage
run on sweet clover pasture during
summer and fed hay and silage after
snow covered the pasture, until No
vember 20. when they were sold fol
81 ,294 more than they cost. We have
another car of similar stock on the
farm now, and hope for as good re-
suits. Some good cows. and a carload
of hogs each year on these farms
give us a steady income and make
possible improvement in yield anc
quality of all crops"

make the states dollars count when
spent at the agricultural college and
maintain proper coordination be-
tween all departments Of the institu-
ton.
They also agree that he must have
a practical as well as \ theoretical
knowledge Of farming and a real n
derstanding and sympathy with the
problems which agriculture must
solve in North Dakota.
Seek Achievement First
Possession Of a doctors degree will
not prejudice the board against a
candidate but neither will 1t help him
materially. The board Is unanimous
on the point that demonstrated
achievement will be Of more value to
them in selecting q college president
than the possession Of scholastic de-
grees.
without minimizing the fact that
the agricultural college is intended
primarily as an institution for edu-
eating young people, with emphasis
on pursuits related to agriculture. the
board is anxious to develop the other
possibilities Of the college. They
want to make 1t useful, not only to
students. but to farmers who are
making their living from the soil.
To do this they want someone
whose voice will be heard with re-
spect when he speaks on various de-
velopments in the science Of agricul.
ture.
Want to Pick . Conner
Balanced against the type Of man
which the board would like to have
is the fact that the job pays $500
q year. A good salary from most
viewpoints but not large for the head
Of q major educational institution. In
view of this fact. Davis said, 1t is in
cumbent upon the board to pick a
conner" II It can by q Conner he
said he means . man who may not
have achieved greatness In the past
but who gives promise Of noteworthy
work in the future.
It Is this effort to peer behind the
minds Of the various candidates
which Is going to take q lot Of time.
Although the board has not dis
closed the names Of any men under
consideration, It Is known here that
the name Of Frank w. Reinoehl Of
Larimore has been suggested to It..
Reinoehl d president Of the North
west Farm Managers association and
Is credited with having made . sue
cess Of farming during the last few
years a. manager Of the Elk Valley
Farm near Larimore.

Reinoehl has not been active In

ate Of Mount Union college. Alliance.
