FRIDAY, MAY 26, 1922: _ By Olive Barton Roberts Nancy and Nick watched the Tows- lies for awhile making their funny dreams in their funny kettles and ty- ing them up in their funny poppy-leaf bags,’ then they followed Mr, Peer- about, the Man-in-the-Moon, to anoth- er place. This was called Smokysoot, Village. It was beyond the Gilden Forest, and as grimy as the forest was bright. As the (Moon-Man said, things. mortals valued were of no value on the moon and things mortals threw away moon people valued highly. ‘Smokysoot Viilage was where the ‘Chimney-Fairies lived with their leader, the Sweep. “They are just as busy unmaking dreams as the Towslies are’ making them,” explained Mr. Peerabout with a wise wag of his head. This was what the little black’ fel- lows..were doing. Untying bags and pouring out smoky looking stuff into a big barrel. Some of was green, some yellow and some brown... _ “Puey’'ve ugly dreams,” » said. “Mr. Peerabout. “You see old “Hetia ‘Meena, the Magician, makes .awful dreams sometimes and sends them fo the Dream Seller, pretending, they are nice ones. The Dream Seller then ‘sells them, not knowing what they are. So it’s the duty of my Chimtey Fairies to sit on the chim- neys o’ nights and stop all the fairies with horrid dreams.” pay at “But how can they tell?” asked Nancy, * “All the good dreams are in poppy- leaf. bags, and old Eena Meena ‘puts his bad dreams into toad-skins. My Chimney-Fairies can see in the moonlight,’ replied the Moon-Man. (To ‘Be Continued) (Copyright, 1922, ‘NEA Service) MANDAN NEWS. . F, L. Anders of Fargo is in Man- dan on business. i H.H.

On Memorial day he will talk at two places, Shell Village in the morning and in the afternoon at El- bowoods. Indians of the Arikara, Gros Venture and Mandan tribes will .ga- ther on that day and will assist the world war veterans in the big serv- ices to be held. One feature of the program is the gathering of the old Indian scouts of the days of Custer. Is the 83-year-old Titian-haired schoolmarm who eloped with a 16- year-old boy, a pupil in her school, a former Mandan teacher? 5 This is a question which is agitating the citizens of Mandan since they read in the Chicago Herald-Examiner that Miss Lena Stamp of Lode, Calit., dis- appeared with her pupil, Leroy Fry. The name of the ex-Mandan teacher and the California teacher are the same—but..the Mandan teacher was not Titian-haired. That, apparently settles the dispute. . | Arrest Evaporation | By J. H. WORST, COMMISSIONER OF IMMIGRATION After a field is seeded to grain and heavy dashing rains beat the surface tblat, a hard crust forms which greauy facilitates evaporation. ‘rhis crust shouid broken up when the gram is several inches high. A light drag or weeder will answer the pur- pose. If a drag is used the teeth should slant backward so that the @rain will not be punished too badly. ‘rhis dragging will not only @estnoy millions of small weeds which absorb moisture in proportion to their. size and numbers, but the granulated mulch produced -by the drag will, to a great extent, prévent eVaporation. ‘The moisture thus practically bot- tled yp in the soil will be available for tne growing plants, until ex- hausted, regardless of seasonable showers, With the large ampunt of water now in the soil, owing to late fall and early spring rains, there should be no lack of moisture necessary to produce a bumper crop next ‘fall. Moreover, with but little extra but properly directed. effort, sufficient moisture now fallem and that will fall during the season could easily be conserved for crops during the sea- son of 1923. (In fact, taking the average annual precipitation over the western half of the state, by giving all grain fields a couple of draggings a week or so apart as above indicated and discing HWehind the bindgr—or very soon thereafter—and possibly giving the fields a good dragging be- fore being fall plowed, should heavy fall showers occur, sufficent moist- ure would be: conserved; fo. profitable crop a year hence, so far as moisture is concerned. And moist- d DOINGS OF THE DUFFS ~ THIS SUIT )S CERTAINLY GOING ON THE FRITZ- GUESS I'LL GO OVER: AND ORDER AL NEW one $ be sure, but would the results war- rant the additional labor? I believe it would. I further Velieve so far as relying upon growing wheat exclus- ively He a farming proposition is con- cerned, that nothing short of this extra labor will save all-wheat farm- |, ers from ultimate bankruptcy. I am also convinced that for/the extra la- bor suggested, if efficiently applied, twice as much profit will be ‘realized as may be expected from any equal amount of labor that must be ap, plied to the farming operations. Not only, twice the profit per unit of labor, but during ‘occasional seasons this extra work will represent the differ- ence between crop failure and a fair yield of gran. (No, brother, there is no danger of your overdoing the til- lage question. The danger is that where you save:a ‘dollar on labor you lose several dollars on crop. ———_—_.——_--+ - Gloom Chasers THE.

The Yukon is one of the great rivers of the world. It is more than 2,300 miles long and is both the longest and the largest river flowing into Pacific waters in the western hemisphere, sur- passing by a considerable margin its nearest competitors, the Columbia and the Colorado. Among all the rivers of North America the Yukon is sur- passed in length only by the Missis- sippi system and the Macgenae. It fs longer than the St. LafWrence, as well as all the other rivers except the Mississippi system which flows into the Gulf of Mexico or the Atlantic. The existence of such a large river as the Yukon in the Far North was long unsuspected. tenant, Zagoskin, entered its mouth by boat in 1842 and traversed it for several hundred miles. The Hudson's Bay company had discovered its head- waters in Canada; but the two bits of information were not pieced to- gether. The existence of the river as a‘stream of great magnitude and length first became really known through the daring and romantic -proj- ect of installing land telegraph wires between America and Europe across Alaska, Behring strait and the wastes of Siberia. Robert Kennicott, in con- nection with this enterprise blazed the Yukon trail by descending the river in 1865. The first trading steamer ascended the stream in 1869, The Yukon really, came into its own with the discovery of gold in the Klondike tlonal Geographical Society.
