Lincoln, Neb., Dec.'24.—"I am firm ly convinced that in a comparatively brief period the good ,land of eastern Colorado and all the- good land of western Nebraska will produce crops equal to those grown in Illinois."' This statement wtts made by H. W.' Campbell, who since 1895 has been championing a special method of soil culture which conserves water so that vegetation ma^ nave it to draw frotn in the hot arid rainless days' of sum mer. He says next year 4,000 acres of land in Nebraska, Kansas and Da kota will be under cultivation accord ing to his system. "I haye.iust started, on the manage ment of a Burlington, experimental farm," said Mr. Campbell. "In recent years I have made many Experiments, the first being for the Great Northern and Northern Pacific roads- in-the D& kotas. General Manager Holdrege of1 the Burlington ro?td h,as taken an in terest in the system, and the road has showi^its faith &y backing a farm of .338 acres, on which I have a section house, four horses and some tools, with which I must prove that the farm, which has been tilled fifteen years by other methods, will pay for its manage ment and all improvements under th'is new plan. The sole question that con fronts me is not that the yield be doubled, and even quadrupled, but that this may be done at a profit." "Up in Chase County, Nebraska, I have the system in operation on two big ranches. We made an investiga tion there at a period when moisture would be least expected. Boring down in ground that had been treated, the soil taken out was so damp that it would stick together at the pressure of the hand. Not more ithan ten feet away, where the ground had not been treated, a similar boring failed to bring up a particle of dirt of the same con sistency. I know of yields of wheat this year in Logan County of fifty-two bushels to the acre and fifty-six bushels in Thomas County under my system, while other ground in the same section' did not yield to exceed thirty-twd bushels, and some went as low as fif teen bushels. "Campbell's soil culture has often been referred to as. the dust blanket system. This is because it is misun* derstood, When the. covering on i field gets to the dust.the plan has been overdone. The covering should rather be of fine clods, well packed. I have 1 happiei lhap to find* z warm nitk fur amdJkJ '"i mttff among her gifts.

The Case* Acalnst Tom Day and I WIS Be HOttd" ^y JudK* I The Cftse agah'tist Thomas M. Davi and Edward McCorrtiittf, a search war rant proceedings, set for trial in Jus tice Gearey's court this morning, was certified up to the district court, and will tie taken up by JudAe jfellock at 9 o'clock Monday ^rni|*' it will be remembered that- Georgtf Hu«on som,e lime ago swore otit a search warrant 'ijt Justice Gearey's court, authorizing thje officers tp ^earch the( premises of Davis' for horses in dispute' and under a chat fel mortgage, .believed to be harbored in Davis' bar|J. The warrant wis placed. T11 the hands -of Deputies. Redtnon and Bingham. The premises were visited and the officers were obstructed in the performance of their duties by Davis, liis two .sons and E. MfcCormick. The cider Davis and McCormick were brought to the city by the officers' on last Friday and on the evening of that" day a warrant was sworn out by Deputy Redmon charging the quartette named with obstructing officers in the per formance of their duties. The men were arrersted and jailed. Davis and McCormick in the search warrant ac tion against them claim that the war rant in the hands of the deputy sheriffs was not regular afid that the officers were trespassers on the Davis farm, and for this reason they were justified in the obstruction made. There is a fine point of law involved and the outcQme of the case will be watched with interest. In the action brought against the quartette for obstructing officers in the performance of their duties, set for trial in Gearey's. court this morning, a change of venue was taken and the cases were directed to Justice Ryan. By stipulation of the attorneys on both sides the hearing was adjourned «htil Jan. 6. FROM LHASA. "TTRf curiosity which has al^ijj^^x isted concerning Tibet by reason 6f the ekclusion of foreigners has given spe cial interest to any addition that has been made to the world's meager knowl edge of that country, particularly of Lhasa, "the forbidden city." This cur iosity is now greatly enhanced by the political situation which has in it the possibility of a clash between Russia and Great Britain concerning Tibetan affairs. According to French-Russo phile journals, the recent dispatch of the British expedition under Colonel Younghusband from India into the terri tory..of Tibet, in order to demonstrate to,the .Dafiii Lama the necessity.of ob serving his treaty obligations, has ex cited continental alarm as it takes on the fornv in some minds, of a move for British protectorate of Tibet. That Russia is alive to her own interests in this quarter is shown in an article in the January Century entitled "The Lat est News from Lhasa." In the course of a personal narrative of'his visit to Lhasa iu disguise, the ,wr.itei a Jaiwuws^Ikidf tihist priest, Ekal Kawagucm, has thiS' to say of Russia's overtures to Tibet: The Dalai Lama has lately concluded a-secret treaty with Russia, and an ex change of presents was made with the czar. The emissary of the czar was a Buriat Mongol lama,' Whose people have always been free to come and go, visit and make pilgrimages about Lhasa. Working through the three tutors of the Dalia Lama, he was received and treated with in .1900. Three hundred camel loads of presents arrived from Russia in 1902, and I saw some of the new rifles which then came. Formerly the old fuse gun was the only firearm in use in Tibet, and Tibetans high and low were astounded at the quality of these muskets and knew, no bounds in their admiration of Russian mechanical skill. As a matter of fact, the rifles in question were of American manufacture, and their range was, at the most, only 500 meters. I saw the actual things myself at the time. Among other gifts by the czar to the Dalai Lama was a complete set of the vestments of a bishop of the Russian Greek Church—Cloth-of-gold' garments embroidered with precious stones, and a tall gold cap sewed with'pearls. The Dalai Lama did not know that the Russians had a religion different from the Tibetan. He believed the Russians, likje the Buriat Mongols, were all Bud dhists, and the czar a great Bodhisattva possessed oi Gtoix,- V/Bkil" i Mewr WUfA- ar Mr. Avenue Jjov 'V mystic powers./. He was pleased wfth this gift of rich clothing and sometimes wore it. y. FARGO SECRET SO(jlkTIIt|C,' y MASONIC—York Rite.
