'"V 1 ^'The views ffresCTited By 'Pt'esi dent McFarland of the Valley City Normal School, concerning the value of teaching agriculture to those who intend to follow teaching .as a profes sion, will not meet with the approval of some who have closely studied this subject. The success of the west, especially, depends upon scientific and progressive methods in farming. The rural teacher should inculcate in the minds of the pupils a love for nature, and an understanding of the objects with which they daily come in contact. Such instruction will have a tendency to keep more children on the farm than any other influence which can be brought to bear on the youthful mind. The Forum does not care whether the preliminary instruction to the teacher is imparted by a normal school, an agricultural colleg, or a universiay but it feels there is urgent necessity that every teacher in a rural school be an enthusiast on the topics mentioned, and know how to impart that enthus iasm to the pHipils being taught. There is every encouragement to believe that the state will receive the benefit of the money paid in by North Dakota to the irrigation fund, provid ed it can be proved there are feasible irrigation projects to be undertaken in the state. The executive committee of the state irrigation association are making every effort to furnish the in terior department with satisfactory in formation on this point, and they ask the help of all residents of lire state. The present -agitation is exceedingly valuable to this commonwealth, wheth er the national funds are secured or not, as it has called attention to nu merous places where irrigation may be undertaken on a small scale by indi viduals. Every tract of land thus im proved is an incentive to intensified farming on cither tracts in the state.. The smaller the division of a section, can be and amply support a family, the pore desirable it will be for the state. The Forum will not be issued oW Christmas Day. This will give em ployes, an opportunity to enjoy the holiday*.v- i v! m' The year 1903 has nearly reached its close.

DEVILS LAKE CLU%U Devils Lake News: The Devils Lake Club held a special business meeting Friday evening last. It was decided to vacate the present quarters and move into the pleasant front room in the city hall kindly tendered for the use of the club by the city council. The club will continue as heretofore, but the dues will be reduced to $2 per year. All the old members will be entitled to the privileges of the club on payment of back dues to Secretary Henry. The reading room and social features will be continued. The present iurniture will be removed to the n^w rooms, ex cept the billiard and pool tables, which will be sold, and a high grade com bination pool and billiard table substi tuted.

In a boarding house out rin the Northside a firkin of butter was receiv ed. The landlady bought it in a gro cery she believed to be strictly reliable on butter, and the find afforded her so much pleasure that she spoke about it at supper the other night. It was dished out and the hungry boarders begun butting in. As soon as it was stirred up a singular odor tiroe am iff «w1 ,t| was emitted. •''••v "Gosh, but it\Vot^nt, fessional man.' tile pro- Yes, sir," said the keen-looking young man wearing glasses and smok ing a cigarette, as he toyed with the cigar lighter at the Broadway. "I have got the greatest invention to bring out that has been sprung in many a day. I don't mind telling it to my friends here for my application is already in for patents. s "Now you-are aii aware that the railroads pay out in the aggregate sev eral hundred thousand dollars a year for runnig down and killing live stock with their trains. All stock killed by trains is the most valuable in the herd, to hear the owner tell it, and the road does not have time to look up the pedigrees of the cattle and horses their trains run over. They have to stand for much imposition and would like to escape it. "But I will show them th^ way out of it. Stock get rattled at the whistle of a locomotive used to scare them off the track. What is needed is some sound with which they are more famil iar. Now my idea is to rig up the lo comotives with a set of sleigh bells. Cattle and horses can be made to be ieve that a team is coming at a fast clip and instead of getting excited and loping off down the track, only to be .caught up and hurled in to the ditch, they will calmly step off to one side. "What! No I ain't kidding you." A'gentleman connected with one of Fargo's produce houses tells this one for the truth, and is willing to vouch for its accuracy: "Before I came to Fargo I was raised on a plantation in the Delta. We had large quantities of hogs, and the legroes were rather bad about Stealing 4bem.C .* W 'One nighr*one of*the rtfe&roes" on the plantation put a sack over his shoulder and started to leave the place, when my father heard the squealing of something that sounded very much like a pig. He demanded of the old negro what was in his sack. The squeal had given him away, and his reply was: 'When I put it in ciar 'twas a 'pos sum, massa but 'fo' de Lofd,"T sware it done turned to er pig!' A 2Q I hate to^ meet that butter on ding occurred at kulm tlie other fay lower Front Street after sundown," said the timid dry goods clerk. where the pair had ueen sweethearts "Salve," exclaimed the rising young for thirty years. Jus!4hink of the long doctor, alter he had bitten into a slice of cream bread covered with the but ter. The landlady was angry with tttorti- $ fication and disappointment. Rushing to the phone she called up the grocer. "You sent me a firkin of butter to day. "Well, come and get it. I or dered and paid for butter," she said. "Now I don't want any Norwegian salve nor 'both-ther but I do want some butter. Get busy." w months' old baby W^o .had found but what he wanted fdr Christ inas had learned to say sugar, book and "gee," the last meaning a horse. Whenever asked what he wanted he wanted he would jabber out the three words just as fast as they could come, until a sad experience the other night. He was eating a piece of his "dear" sugar in loaf form, when h*e swallowed too large a piece and badly choked himself. He squalled at the top of his voice for about an hour afterward, and has such a good memory of his fright that when asked now what he wants he leave* off sugar and says only "book" ai$ .'foe i 1 'K*^OTICE TO CREDITORS, In the matter of the estate of Jahn Hendrikson, alias John Hendrikson, deceased.
