Or- dinary precautions include the fol- suggestions: (1) Cut flowers early in the morn- ing or late in the evening, when the stems are turgid. Early morning 6 a. m. and evening between 9 and 10 p. m. (2) Use a sharp knife in prefer- ence to shears, the sharper the cut the less the bruising of the conducting vessels and the greater the absorption of water. In addition, the lack of ragged edges may lessen the chance of bacterial action. (3) Plunge the stems deeply in wa- ter up to the base of the flower. All arranging should be postponed until after the stems have been thoroughly (4) The proper stage of develop- ment in the flower should be selected. Gladioli are best for cutting when the first floret is open; peonies, when the first petals are unfolding; roses, be- fore the buds open; dahlias when fully open; poppies, the night before open. (5) Keep the flowers in a humid room, where it is cool and dark, un- til ready to bring to the show. (6) Use containers which permit tree entrance of air through the top. With the price of hay and feed steadily climbing and the continued drouth making impossible even a reasonable hay harvest, County Agent Henry O. Putnam Tuesday implored Burleigh county farmers to cut every bit of hay they can find, including Russian thistles. “The thistles make a fair feed if cut and stacked immediately,” the county agent was quoted as saying, “but they must not be left on the ground to cure for in the extreme heat they lose much of their palat. ability and become unsuitable for the stock. “In order to prepare the thisles for feed it is often advisable to spread salt in the stacks and cover, if pos- sible, with other hay that is not so easily spoiled by thc sun,” he said. “We are facing a general hay and feed shortage in this winter,” Putnam continued. “Everything that is worth feeding must be saved. Already it is practically impossible to ship hay into the ‘county and the situation will be much worse by fall.” Alfalfa hay, which is now selling for $20 a ton, will g~ even higher by the end of the summer, Putnam warned in urging farmers to take ad- vantage of every opportunity to pro- vide subsistence for their herds dur- ing the winter months.

President Given Peace Pipe Starting out on Highway No. 19, the presidential party traveled west- ward to Minnewaukan, where he viewed the huge dried up bay, thence to Lallie and to Fort Totten. At the old historical fort built in 1897 Sioux tribe Indians presented him with a Peace pipe and bade him success in the New Deal. Amid the steamshovels and dredges on the newly commenced Fort Peck, Montana, dam in the Missouri river the president voiced this purpose late Monday to a crowd of workers and Citizens of these parched fields. The drouth, apparently spreading, occupied almost full attention of Mr. Roosevelt as he rode through the barren, dusty fields of the northwest. ioe experts carried late reports to Explains Marginal Land Program He took the occasion to emphasize at Fort Peck the administration program for redistribution of people to bet- ter working opportunities. “I understand,” he said, “that some People, seeking to misrepresent facts, have suggested tha) we are going through the northwest and saying to the families on marginal lands, famil- {es having a good deal of trouble mak. ing both ends meet,-you have got to leave your home tomorrow morning and get out. “Of course, no person who thinks twice will believe silly tales of that kind.

This is the only opportunity I am likely ever to have, and I am eager to take ad- | vantage of it.

LETS DAM OUR COUNTRY I got a real kick by reading C. ©. Hibbs’ letter in the Forum. Mixing religion, radio, moisture conservation and Socialism was something new to me. Good was my impression. Then I began to wonder how many, if any, iS caused to think. My “mind” kinda Tan away and J wondered how many are really capable of thought. Am 1? And where do I get off? He said radio has nothing to do with weather. As I am an electrician I was much inclined to agree, but radio is beyond me. I kmow that around all electric equipment the air is charged. Some things we learn as truths sour on us, yet if radio has any effect on weather why doesn’t the highlines, in fact all generative plants? In the summer of ‘18 I was operating a tractor for George R. White in Bottineau county. The tractor was equipped with an Atwater Kent uni- Sparker. One evening, after sun down, the tractor began to miss. The wires glowed as if painted with phos- Phorus. A spark would jump to answer the call. Even deer, moose and bear would come in time. There would be no scarcity of game, especi- ally waterfowl. If any think I lie, buy a ticket to Fort McMurry or Fort Vermillion, Alberte. Stay there dur- ing the spring or fall. I won't tell you what you'd see, you wouldn't be- lleve. Yet, even there, many is busy bringing destruction upon himself; forest fires—laughingly referred to as being started by lightning or careless campers—sweep the forests, (bush) unchecked, bringing destruction. Turn a part of the Missouri's water into Devils Lake and fill what! Streams and swamps are handy, but don’t expect any great instantaneous reaction by the weather. Give our embryonic forest a chance to grow and the Missouri's water a chance to filter through the stratas of soil. Have Patience. Remember man didn’t wreak his destruction in a day. Be- fore the day of the white man, when| the Indians were horseless, the red men set fires to drive game, and to Prepare the fields for cultivation, yet the white man being more. efficient, brought havoc with grec.er speed; do- ing in a few generations what would have taken the savages years to ac- complish, Socialism? Impossible: of the U. S. (the vested interests) do not want it, and they can hire ;erough Ivy Lees to make us—dumb cattle that we are—believe that Cap- italism is the ideal. Please turn to India and China for references. There Capitalism has grown and rip- ened and they are harvesting the crop—and such a crop. Look, you of the middle-class, who think you are| sitting pretty. Where is the middle- class in those places? In Russia (Damn that country, but they're damming it themselves) they are trying to build Socialism. Don’t read a Socialist or a Communist paper for the answer. Read such papers and and magazines as: Nation's Business, Saturday Evening Post, Colliers, Lib- erty, American Weekly—every one of them is grinding Capitalism’s axe on both edges—if half what they say is so, Russia is, even now, alinost a Utopia and is improving fast. I quote from Marjorie E. Smith’s article in Writ- er’s Digest (A magazine that can have no axe to grind) for June: “Motion Picture houses were packed to capac- ity at all performances and the legit- imate theatres had the ever-present lines waiting to grab up tickets. Rus- sians were working. Russians had money, and Soviet Russia demanded entertainment. At the end of the first five year plan the demand was even greater.” Be that es it may, let’s let the Russians damn or dam their own country, but let us be sure to dam our own. your finger or to a piece of wood. The engine quit. We would crank and it would start, then the glow would come and it would stop. Sure I'm crazy—I've been laughed at about it before. Scientists, at least some, claim that the Northern Lights do not affect a compass. At Fort Ver- million, Alberta, I had a small Marble, Coat-lapel compass. I have watched it when the lights were dancing and at times it would spin dizzily and teeter up and down. Knowing these things my “brains” went into a hud- die: is any one capable of saying whether radio mixes into the weather or not? Water conservation? Sure! Let's turn the sod back right-side-up. But forestation seems to me to be the best bet. The hundred mile strip surely, but why stop with a seven rod strip per mile? Why not two strips or better four strips per mile? And don't damn the country. Dam How long, if the farmers of the United States armed themselves with gas and modern weapons, set a price ot two dollars on wheat and on other Produce at comparable prices and re- fused to let any be moved to mar- ket for less, would it be before the army would be on our backs? That would be defying the government. The Steel Trust sets the price on steel and an ee the wages of their em- Ployes. The collective bargaining vision for labor in the N. I. RA. gives the laborers the right to organ- ize in unions of their own choosing. Only a short time ago, the Trust armed itself to the teeth, said “to hell with the strikers” who wanted recog- nition of the union of their choice, and defied the government to enforce its dictum. Was there ever a time when one could get such a kick by Treading the daily press? I think not. Take the strikes in Frisco and Minnie. In it. Every stream and slough. Let the beaver, the muskrats and the water- fowl return. Our prairie birds would Frisco it’s the cat's pajamas to use the militia. In Minnie it’s noxvomico. Why?

For the sake of argument we'll say the whole bunch are Communists and should be deported or shot, yet that does not drive the skunk from the cabbage Patch.

C., may consider it. My father died in Germany when I was eight years old. Mother, my one sister and I emigrated to the U. 8. when I was 12 years old. We came to Bismarck, N. D., on the 30th day of April, 1891. Mother had a little money left after she had paid the fare for the three of us, but it would not go very far, so we all had to work out. My first job was herding horses on the Clarence Price place 6 miles east of Bismarck at $8.00 a month for 6 months. Next year I herded cattle at Wogansport, 20 miles north of Bismarck, along the river at $10.00 Per month for 6 months, and from the age of 14 to 18, I became a general farm hand and the highest wages I received was $204 a year on a farm near Glencoe, N. D., (on the Burleigh county south line). When I was 18 years old I started up farming (1897) here on my moth- ers homestead (which I now own) with $450.00 that I saved up by work- ing out from the age of 12 to 18. This was my start. Well, when I was 21 years old I received $100 inheritance from my father’s estate. Today I own 880 acres of land, a home and have a family with children. I am sure that I could find no better lo- cation on this world than I own. Neither a more productive farm than I have. I paid as high as $4,000.00 for one quarter of land, and my land i no better than that of my’ neigh- rs. " Just to show you what can be done near Baldwin, in 1928 I had a 50 acre field of summer plowing in with mar- quis wheat and it averaged 32 bu. No. 1 hard wheat per acre. It is true that this is the driest year I ever saw in my life, and even at that I harvested 55 acres of wheat with a Deering binder. I farm with horses and save the straw. All I own I made by diversified farming and I am sure I could not have done any better anywhere else. T thank you. Yours truly, JULIUS MEYER.
