D.—When the show and demonstration committee. of the Na- / tional Implement and Vehicle Associa- ‘tion Issued word from its headquarters at Chicago that a demonstratior of farm tractors and’.trucks would be given at Fargo this year, it set on foot ithe most notable occasion, from a farmer's viewpoint, that will take {place this year In the Northwest.

The event is In no sense a com- jmercial: proposition, and all demon- jstrations and exhibits are freé, Other Shows Drew Good Crowds, { Up, to the present time the only itractor demonstrations that have been, Staged in this section were two, cal- ‘eulated to cover only a local, or “dis- \ | ! i 1 ‘ ' f i - ltrict” ‘scope, which were held’ respae- Itively ‘at Minot and at Aberdeen two lor three years ago. These gatherings, Inotwithstanding their semi-local char- jaeter. are said to have drawn crowds ,0f from 80,000 to 40,000 people each— {not leas than 11,000 autos having been : parked at Minot in one day—so It is by no means. difficult to judge the widespread interest that should: ob: in the present enterprise, backed by representatives of an organization comprising 96 per cent of all the trac- tor manufacturers of the United States. ' ‘ Exhibit to Be a Real Contest, Never before, perhaps, has the con- test feature of a démonstrat@n: been more marked than In the show now being planned. Forty to sixty tragprs of every well-known size and ‘make will be in operation plowing at one time. Experienced and impartial scorers will pass upon the perform- ance of every machine. Each tractor, it fs stipulated. must plow, prepare and seed a plot of not less than 10 @cres, seven inches deep, the work peing done complete by one man in} each case. Work will be graded upon results, cost, and amount of fuel and oll used. ,. Prizes to Horse Owners, That it is’ ‘purposed’ to make the ‘work a test ‘of real efficiency in farm ‘operation is shown ‘by the fact shat ‘cultivation by horse and’ ot-team powér will also’ be presented, right alongside ofthat operated by mechant- ical’ means: /To-tnsure this latter ae- ‘pect of the test, heavy prizes have ‘been hung up bythe national commit- ‘tee in charge of the event—prizes that will pay a‘ handsome profit to those farmers who are enterprising and for- itunate enough to carry them off. As ‘a member of the publicity committee ‘said, tm talking with a farmer the other day: “Just glance down this list ef offerings and get out your team!” Here is the list: ‘ : First prize—$400.00, Second prize—$300.00- Third prize—$200.00. / Forth prize—$100.00._ Fifth prize—850.00.

It was necessary to.dig only 15 feet to reach it. A big water pipe is now being laid through which the pool will be fed. Since an appeal fur voluntary labor was issued last Saturday there has been a large number~of volunteet workers, men and young men.

One writer on the proper use of words says: “Unless you have fallen through a trap door and have finished your ca- reer, do not say, ‘I am through,’ when | you mean, ‘I am finished.’ The school- boy says, ‘I am through with that les- son,’ when he should say, ‘I have fin- : | ished that lesson.’ The farmer asks =———9)' the man in his employ, ‘Are you | through with ‘that field? when he should have asked, ‘Have you finished) ; plowing that field?

Washington, June 21.—More than 12,000,000 gounds of picric acid, one of the highest known explosives, ac- ; cumulated for war purposes and made useless to the War Department by the armistice, will be distributed to farm- ers for agricultural purposes. When the war ended the army had on hand this immense stock of picric acid and in addition more than 26,- 000,000 pounds of T, N. T. The latter was distributed to various govern: mental agencies for use in railroad construction in Alaska, public roads in the national parks and various pro- jects on Indian reservations. None of the T. IN\.T, was distributed to indi- viduals and thus far not a single ac- cident has marked the use or trans- portation of the millions of pounds of the high explosive, according to of- ficials of the Bureau of Mines. The question of what to do with the 12,000, pounds of picric acid puz- zled go@rnment officers for some time and the War Department had almost decided’ to tow the. explosive out to sea and dump it overboard in the in- ; terests of the public gafety when it was decided to institute a series of experiments in an effort to find some safe commercial use for it. ‘ine ex- periments were conducted by the Bu- reau of (Mines and disclosed many ways in which picric acid could be used safely and profitayy on farms, such as in blasting out ‘stumps and rocks and breaking up land. It was accordingly decided to distribute the explosive, practically free of charge, ta farmers. ~ Pisric acid, a highly srystalline powder having a lemon yellow color is 18 per cent stronger than 40 per cent straight nitroglycerin. dynamite, according to the Bureau of Mines. It should never be used in bulk, officials say, and its use should be restricted cart- | ridges. The 12,000,000 surplus stock, located at Sporta, Wis., and Wingate, N. M., will be distributed to farmers through the (Bureau of Public Roads of the Department of Agriculture, The only cost to the farmer, it is announced, will be freight charges and a charge of six cents a pound.for placing the powder in the necessary cartridges.
