The| stem is gone, In the bowl when it| was found in a ledge in Bowman county in the Bad Lands was a note,; written by a soldier who had ‘been waunded by the Indians on June 17, 1873, and was dying. The note was picked up by a hunter in Bowman county a few years ago. Recently it came into the possession of Lewis F. Crawford, secretary of the Industrial Commission and director of the North Dakota Historical So- ciety. He has placed it in the state museum as a part of the historic relics of North Dakota, The note told of money that had een hidden iby the trooper. This money has never been found, it is be- lieved. : Story of Finding ! “Soon after the Milwaukee Railway passed through southwestern, North Dakota, settlers ibhegan to. come in and take homesteads in what was until that time only a ranch country. Among these new settlers were W. W. Potter and family from Iowa. They took homesteads on sections, 3 and 4, 129-104. in Bowman County, some four or five miles from the South, Da- kota line and about 12 or 15 miles from the Montana line. i “To while away the tedious winter hours Mr, Potter often took his 22 rifle out for a rabbit hunt. fh Feb- ruary {1913 he was on a hill to the southeast of his place in a long de- file between some large rocks almost at the very summit, The exact loca~ tion was probably on the Northeast quarter of the Northwest quarter of 10-129-104. An owl flew up near by and took refuge in a hole in the side of a rock just above his head. Think- ing he would have some fun with the owl he poked the barrel of his gun into the hole; noticing that it con- tained some dry. leaves and grass, he dragged a bunch of it Out, An old briary pipe and lead pencil fell at his teet. It struck him. first that some sheep herder had thrown them into the hole. The pencil broke into many pieces, which were left lying on the ground, but he casually. picked up. the pipe and put it into his pocket, Upon arriving home he later in the evening, on recalling the incident laid the pipe on the table. Mrs. Potter noticed: that it was filled with what seemed to be only dry clay. When ‘she began to gouge it dut she discov- ‘ered a piece of paper coming With it. On carefully removng the clay she discovered the note, which is repro- duced (below. A Given: to Society “The pipe and the note have been turned over to Lewis F. Crawford to te placed in the Historical Society. Rev, J. G. Dickey.of Dickinson) is a brother-in-law to Mr, Potter and to ‘him, as well.as to Mr. and Mrs. Potter, ‘the thanks net only of the Historical Society but of the people of the state are due for these priceless mementoes ot the early day struggles of the fron- Jer, as s >June 17 - 1873 lost from Co.

Bull Addresses Delegates At Red River Valley Mid- Winter Shew 1 i i { i | CROOKSTON ENTERTAINING Crookston, Minn., Feb. 1).—Weeds take a tremendous toll from farmers’ crops, includinig the increased cost of production, handling and, marketing, C. P. Bull, Minnesota state weed in- spector, yesterday told the delegates attending the Red River Valley Mid-| winter shows here. eae “Experiments conducted at the Min-) nesota experiment station,” he said, “showed a direct comparison of de- creased yields and weeds in corn.” For a three-year period, , plots planted to corn that were not culti- vated gave an. average production. of 9.2 bushels per acre; corn cultivated twice produced 45.69 bushels per acre; per acre; four times, 59.07 bushels per acre, and six times, 62.71, bushels per acre, Mf. Bull said. Where. there was no cultivation but the weeds were cut off at, the surface with a hoe, the production averaged 64.17 bushels per acre. Dockage in spring wheat in termi- nal markets, as determined by. the United States department of agricul- ture, has steadily increased for 20 years, Mr. Bull. said. In- 1914, the dockage was 2.2 per cent, and it has ine d gradually to 5.1 per cent in crop, the spring wheat of North and. South Dakota and Minnesota, this dockage! amounted to approximately 10,000 cars, which at the cost of freight on a 200-mile haul amounts to $960,000 of growing weeds,” the speaker de- cred) The Wisconsin Agricultural college, Mr. Bull said, figured that the dock- age on barley, while selling at 60 cents a\ bushel, amounted to $720 on the average 160-aere farm, or 4.75 per cent on a $16,000 farm invest- ment. Mr. Bull outlined the present state weed law, which he declared removed objections to the old weed laws. Hej declared that it was impossible to] eradicate most weeds but that all weeds could be controlled. “Most farmers know that weeds are a detriment,” the speaker said, “but) weeds are so common they are passed by until their danger to the crops is called to the attention of the farmers. | “In 1922, we have planned for six} district inspectors for-the state, one to. six local inspectors for: each of the several counties, amounting to, about 200 local inspectors in all.
