I am going back home and take care of my chil- dren. I will keep on writing poetry, but if I were to get so wrought up again I would lose all my desire for creative writing.

Major project was the construction of the Cedar lake dam, a struc- ture 585 feet long, 28 feet high and designed to hold back 898,425,000 gal- lons of water, Sperry was superintendent of the project. eee \' _ May Paul Bliss, Using Ancient Plan of Construction, Hopes for Succ! SELES SAREE SEES If the new garage of Paul Bliss on his “Scoria Lily” ranch turns out to be what he hopes it will be, North Dakota’s building industry may find new impetus in the near future. Comfortable homes may be reared on our prairies to take the place of structures which have long since lost their usefulness, And if the dream comes true these homes will be warmer in winter, cool- er in summer and will be maintained in good condition at small cost. They will last practically forever. Bliss, an executive in the WPA state offices here, is frankly experiment- ing. The idea of rammed earth struc- tures is not new. Homes were built by this method in ancient Egypt. In; England houses still standing were constructed hundreds of years ago and it has long been used in the eastern part of the United States. But it is new to the west, the near- est approach to it here having been the sod and mud houses constructed in pioneer days. Sees Building Upturn If the garage building is satisfac- tory, Bliss envisions an upturn in farm building throughout the state in which the established building in- dustry will share, for concrete is needed for the foundations and such structures must have windows, floors and roofs. In the last two years Bliss has traveled 40,000 miles in North Da- kota and knows that farm housing is inadequate. The building industry has lagged because farmers cannot afford expensive construction. If the garage is satisfactory it will have been demonstrated that by using elbow grease and a minimum of materials the farmer can provide for himselt buildings of better average quality than those now in use. Bliss is constructing the garage in the fall, he said, because it usually is too dry for fall plowing in the western part of the state and that would be the obvious season for such construction if it proves satisfactory. One of the points to be determined is whether or not a rammed-earth struc- ture would be ruined by freezing weather. Bliss doubts that it will because only enough water is used to lay the dust when the earth is rammed into the form. The exteriors of such buildings, Bliss said, can be finished with either stucco or aluminum paint, thus mak- ing them attractive in ‘appearance. | ‘The insides can be finished like an Pamphlets on the construction of tammed-earth buildings are available | trom the government, Bliss said, but general principles are these: a Build a cement foundation ex- tending one foot above the surface of the earth. For one-story structures the walls should be @ foot thick. For two-stories from 18 inches to two feet thick. 2. Select @ soil without excessive quantities of gumbo or sand. The top soil in an average wheat field usually | is satisfactory. Merely scrape off the straw so the soil is black, fill up a truck load and drop it on boards so / it can be mixed without contamina- tion from other solids. 3. Using a sprinkler, moisen the earth only enough to lay the dust. Be careful not to get it too wet. 4. Ram it into the forms until an; actual ringing sound is produced by each blow of the rammer. Put in about four inches of earth for each ramming. When the form is full, re- move it and set it up on the next sec- tion of the wall and complete a tier. Then set it on the first earth rammed and proceed. 5. When finished let it dry. When dry enough cast with stucco or paint with aluminum paint. Bliss invites anyone to come and look at the building, Hundreds of| persons have visited it already, he said, and he expects “half of Adams county’ ’to attend the “garage warm- ing” which is planned for the near future’ To complete this project, Sperry was forced to work his crew in two 10-hour shifts. Just why this was necessary can be realized when a recapitulation of the materials that went into the dam a. More than 20,000 cubic yards of dirt were hauled. of materials is what kept New England business dam’s construction: Cement used 3,725 sacks; feet; Truck parts, repairs $631; Tractor repairs $78.23; Hardware and mis: vellaneous $146.03. eee ECONOMY A Bismarck couple that has seen more prosperous local dancing club for the pecuniary and thrifty purpose that party dress and that tuxedo that long have been sequestered balls.

D., Nov. 9.—(?)—Acting on behalf of the Mott high school foot- ball team, Coach Russ Osborne an- nounced Saturday he has accepted the challenge of the Bowman high school football eleven for a game within the next two weeks to deter- mine the championship of Southwes- tern North Dakota. The game will be played at Bow- man with neutral officials in charge, The exact date of the game will be determined soon. Both teams have had successful seasons. Mott suffered defeat only at the hands of the strong Dickinson eleven, 13 to 0. In an upset they were tied by the Beulah eleven in the final three minutes of the game when Beulah took to the air to score two touchdowns and knot the final score at 13 all.

Prairie * * * to Washington, Nov. 9.—(#)—While northwest hunters are bagging their annual allotment of wild birds, civil- jan conservation camps are working’ toward a bigger annual crop of wild- fowl and better shooting in the fu- ture, logical survey showed Saturday that four migratory waterfowl refuges were being constructed in North Dakota with CCC labor and one each in Min- nesota and Wisconsin. Provides Nesting Havens The work is designed to provide nesting havens, and includes planting natural duck food seeds, construction of roads and fire trails, observation towers, dams and dikes. The upper Souris refuge, in Ward and Renville counties, N. D., is the site of two CCC camps. The work in- cludes erosion control, building of check dams, bank protection of the shores of a larger water storage res- ervoir under construction, opening truck trails, building about 75 miles of fences, clearing of timber on areas to be flooded, razing undesirable struc- tures, food and cover planting for wild life and fire preventing work. Also under construction is @ recrea- tional area including public picnic grounds, bathing beach, and a bath- house. Work Near Bottineau Camp workers are on the job also at the Des Lacs refuge, in Burke and Ward counties, N. D., and the lower Souris refuge, in Bottineau county. The work is similar to the upper Souris project, except that more dikes are under construction. On the lower Souris more grading and bank pro- tection and food and cover planting will be undertaken. The fourth “Safety Island” for ducks in North Dakota was recently launched at Arrow-wood lake, Stutsman county, and here also COC youths are at work. The camp will develop a recreational area, build truck trails and some 80 miles of boundary fences, construct telephone lines, carry on erosion control work, reduce fire hazards and plant food and cover. A large program of tree plant- ing also is contemplated. A 200-man camp now being estab- lished in Marshall county, Minn., will assist in the construction of Mud lake refuge.

The action was taken at a meeting here in connection with the State Ed- ucation association convention after it decided that much interest is being shown in six-man football in the smaller schools. Four districts may be established for football play next year. The members also decided to uphold the decision of the high school league in adoption of the “eight semester rule.” Under this rule no athlete may play beyond eight semesters unless under 18 years of age, with requirement that the seventh and eighth semesters of athletic participation must be consec- utive. Ths board also voted to retain the 20 year age limit eligibility rule. Tro- phies were obtained by the board for the spring athletic tournaments. No|- place was picked or date fixed for the state consolidated basketball tournament. Officers meeting were Robert Mof-| fit of Heaton, president; R. L. Cole- man of Grandin, vice president, and I.

Hear Special Plea for | Federal Convict | Adjournment of the federal con- spiracy trial of former Gov. William} Langer until Monday, may benefit a South Dakota man now serving 10 years in the federal penitentiary at Leavenworth, Kansas. The man is Ralph Stanwood, con- victed last April in federal district court at Aberdeen, 8. D. He was sen- tenced by Judge A. Lee Wyman, Sioux Falls, 8. D., presiding now in the Langer trial, to serve 10 years for receiving property stolen in interstate transit. During the Langer trial here, Stan- wood’s wife and an attorney appeared and appealed for a re-sentencing, claiming new facts may entitle the man to a lighter term. Time, they urged, was a factor, for the term at which Stanwood was sen- | tenced will expire Tuesday when Fed- eral Judge Andrew Miller opens the new term at Aberdeen. And with the new term opened, the 10-year judgment must stand— for Judge Wyman would be powerless to change it. So, to give the man his opportunity to make the new showing, with the hope of a lighter sentence, Judge Wy- man Friday night sped over slippery roads for South Dakota, to hear the plea Saturday afternoon, while the Langer trial marks time.

The supreme court held the war- rants had not been paid and were the property of the plaintiff, the Osage Farmers National bank of Osage, Iowa. The suit involved six warrants is- sued in November, 1923, by the school district for a total of $1,068, in pay- ment of six teachers’ salaries and a bus driver's salary. Since issuance the warrants event- ally found their way into the hands of the Iowa bank, which brought suit to collect on them. The school district claimed the war- rants were outlawed because more than six years had elapsed since their issuance and they were barred from collection by the statute of limita- tions. The district also maintained the warrants were irregularly issued because they did not bear the cor- porate seal while one was not signed by the president of the school dis- trict. In district court, the bank obtained judgment. The district appealed. The supreme court held the statute of limitations did not commence to run until warrants had been called for payment and notice had been given to the warrant holders. Since the warrants had never been called, the court held, they were not out- lawed. Irregularities, the court held, were cured by a general legislative Statute in 1923. ‘Quake Proof’ Home Building Is Planned Washington, Nov. 9.—(#)— Inex- pensive methods of making buildings “earthquake resistant” were outlined Saturday by Barclay Craighead, Mon- tana director of the federal housing! tion who estimated they gram: 1, To bring our government ex- penditures inside our income. 2. To see to it that adequate re- lief is given to all those who want work but cannot secure employment. 3. To work for conditions under which wages and hours of labor will be such that American families can live comfortable and accumulate. 4. To support measures which will help and to oppose all functioning of our basic industries such as farming, mining, manufactur- ing, and transportation. 5. To keep government in the po- sition of an umpire and tor rather than that of a competitor with private business. 6. To maintain state and local rights and encourage regional com- pacts between the states. 7. To create and share the income of the nation by encouraging proper wages to labor, fair return to farmers, and reasonable profit to stockholders. 8. Keeping in mind the necessity of protecting American living stan- dards, to tear down all otherwise un- necessary barriers to international trade, travel, and exchange. 9. To preserve, at all hazards, the opportunity to every American citizen —to rise as high as his abilities can carry him. 10.
