Cologne, Germany, June 13.—Great
loss of life has occurred in the Alps
valley of the Eifel region.as the re
sult of a cloud burst which swept the
district Sunday night. Late esti
mates place the total number of dead
at 1M. «j3«|f
News of the catastrophe reached
here today. Numerous storms in the
regions had made the streams unus

WHAT BETTER FARMING
(Continued from page 1)
sion before. It is true that many
railroads and special interests have
sent out trains, such as good roadfe
trains, dairy trains seed trainis and
everything of that nature has been
tried. But in every case, so far be
fore, these trains have been for some
special feature and have been very
successful, accomplishing much good.
But they were small affairs compar
ed with this. In this instance there
were put together a train of cars so
long and heavy that many' of the
s'de tracks at the stations were not
long enough to hold the entire train,
and it had to be cut in sections in.
order to get siding until time to leave/
and so heavy that the best of engines
and engineers of rare experience
were required to get it over the road.
It is the magnitude of the under
taking that explains why so many
times the highest officials were so
closely watching every move and so
many times these men in their spe
cial cars or otherwise with it, and
all the time accompanied by officials
of experience and ability.
But why does the Northern Pacific
railway company take such an inter
est in this matter is a question so
often asked and apparently so hard
for some people to comprehend.
The Developing of the West
We all know that the railroads are
developing the country as no other
single factor can. If any man will
take a map of North Dakota and look
at the hundreds of miles of road now
under construction by the N. P. and
think of the millions of dollars that
that company will expend -within the
next few months, he will get a par
tial idea of what is in the minds of
those who control such great inter
ests.
There are three important lines be
ing extended on the east side of the
Missouri river in tho central part of
the state. Then there is a multiplic
ity of extensions west of the river
and two large steel bridges costing
more millions to be built in the im-done
mediate future.
A Wise Far Reaching Pqlicy
It is very evident why these people
representing such interests are work
ing so hard and carefully for the
development of the country. Some
people say, "Oh, that is selfishness
on their part." Perhaps it is. But is it
not the same kind of selfishness on
the part of the young farmer that
toils hard and wisely after leaving
college, in order that he may grow
larger crops with which to feed the
multitudes that have no bread and
thereby enlarging his bank account?
It is this noble, broad self-interest
that is today conquering the forces
of nature and making the earth to
yield to- man the rewards of his la
bor. The railroad men realize that
they must have freight, to haul or
their business is soon a thing of the
past, just as the oil mills realize that
unless the flax wilt is controlled that
the mills will close up and that many
farms will reduce their products. It
is the same with the big flour mills
in the cities. They see that the same
thing is occurring in the northwest
that made the great wheatflelds of
the older states barren. And all
these interests are combining to save
the farmer from his own self-destruc
tion and the ruin of millions of peo
ple in all avocations of life.
Is this Selfishness?
There is only one question upper
most in tbo minds of all of these in
It makes no different if you
look to the farmers, the railroads, the
mills, or where you look. It is simply
a question of better farming, or all
of these interests must sooner or lat
er perish. And from the way things
have been going the last few years
it is sooner and not later, than any
of us care to realize hence we blind
ly shut our eyes to these bitter facts
and do not think any such a thing,
but we have not known how to avert
the catastrophe and have blindly
hoped against hope.
Now, if looking this thing fairly in
the face and honestly trying to avert
the danger is selfishness, give us more
of it. "Self preservation is the first
law of nature" in the spiritual as
well as the physical world, and- that,
is the law under which these many'
interests are allied and struggling-so
hard to accomplish the object so
hoped for.
Realizing the Danger
A few years ago the farmers saw
their yields of wheat beginning to
decrease. The cry went up, "Our
soils are wearing out." The chemist
took the soil and analylzed it and
said. "No, there is plenty of food
material in the soil." But something
was wrong, as the yields were con*
stantly decreasing.' With enough,
plant food in the soil, both vegetable
and mineral, the. richest soil in nat
ural elements on earth, and with" bet
ter cultivation the crops decreased in
bushel's per: acre. The cry again
went up ','The soil is worn out,'' New
land. was broken .sthat had' never
known a crop before and- this," too,
gave a reduced yield, not much bet
ter than fields that had been in culti
vation for a generation. So it could
not be the result of worn-out soil.

GERMAN VILLAGES ARE
DESTROYED BY FLOOD
BISMAECK DAILY TRIBUNE
usually heavy downpoar Sunday night
the Ahr river suddenly overflowed,
the water carrying death and destruc
tion in Its path.
The flood caused enormous damage,
completely destroying the railways,
and devastating several villages.
The flood subsided early today as
suddenly as. it came and the danger
is now passed. Many peasants, how
ever, have lost everything and are
dependent on charity.

Finding the Facts
TJien the men who were thinking
hard and getting at the facts began
to discover that all soils in every
part of the world that had like culti
vation had like results, regardless of
climatic conditions. The cotton fields
of the south, the rice fields of Japan,
the wheat fields of Russia or the great
northwest had exepriences so much
alike that there must he a natural
cause back of all of it.
Then the biologist, the chemist, and
above all, the botanist were learning.
Men like Bolley were finding strange
things and he of all the others first
got right- down to facts and discov
ered that the plants wer sick. That
disease had struck them the same as
smallpox struck the Mandan Indians
in 1837 and, less the pitiful remnant
of 137, that great tribe was swept off
the earth and thousands of othel
tribes were transferred to the happy
hunting grounds.
After years of toil and suffering all
kinds of taunts and humiliations,
these men were listened to.
"There is a Balm in Gilead" and "mywhen
People Shall Not Perish from
the Face of the Earth"
When the facts were known and
the remedies found, then began the
"campaign of education," and today
the gospel of a "better farming" is
being carried to the people.
At first, the discoveries of the
scientific men made the picture dark
er, blacker than ever. There was
nothing but the prospect of reduced
yields and when the unbroken acres,
only a remnant of which is left, were
in cultivation, and they, too, were de
creasing in productiveness, the ques
tion of food for the people was a
serious one.
With new discoveries, there was
an indication that the picture might
not be so dark after all, and there*
was a way to avert the impending
calamity.
The Great Work of the Colleges and
Experiment Stations
The teachers of the colleges real
ized that something more had to be
than furnishing mental culture
to their students and forming circles
of self-satisfied occlusives that were
well enough in their places, but not
giving the people the truths that were
due them, and as a result these men,
hungering for the better development
of the people, laid aside their caps
and gowns and went into the fields
and toiled and learned a new lesson,
and now these men are loading their
equipments on a great train and are
going out to tell the people these great
truths and to show them the better
way, the "better farming."
As far as possible from day to day
the Tribune is going to tell the facts
as they are presented, and from this
time on will give, the reasons as ad
vocated by the teachers on this train
and the methods whereby the desired
results may be obtained.
But in the meantime no one should
miss these teachings in person if
possible to reach the train as it
passes over the road and makes its
stops.
The Work So Far Done
The train has traveled 843 miles
and make 18 stops. Has been visit
ed by thousands of people. There
have been over 600 lectures and talks
delivered. Excursions .afield have
been made and hundreds of samples
gathered for future examinations and
men taught the facts in their own
fields and the crops there examined,
the owners being shown how to avoid
certain difficulties and to increase
their yield of grains and how to make
their flocks and herds more profitable
and their acres more valuable—not
to sell, but to live on and make hap
py homes.
The men alone* have not been the
only ones taught. Much needed les
sons to women have been encour
aged and shown how to make life
easier and the homes better' and
happier. The boys have been advised
no that if they follow the teachings
they will become good farmers and
noble citizens and the girls have been
shown how to be true helpmates of
such manhood.
Would Be Wasting Time.
"Dad," said Rivera' little boy, "is
there such a thing *s a central sun?"
"I suppose so," answered Rivers, who
was occupied with his* papers and

San Francisco's old timers and oth
ers have been recalling the days, fifty
years ago, when the late Samuel L.
Clemens, the great humorist, was plain
Sam Clemens and the name Mark
Twain had little significance for any
body except steamboat men on the
Mississippi river.
"Back in the old days," mused Jo
seph T. Goodman, the pioneer editor of
the west, who gave to Mr. Clemens his
first job as a writer, "Sam was the
best company, the drollest entertainer
and" the most interesting fellow imag
inable. His humor was always creep
ing out and stayed with him to the
last.
"A few weeks ago I received a letter
from him couched in characteristic
terms. He wrote, 'Come on and visit
me once more before we get so old we
can't hear each other swear.'
"It was my privilege to read many
of his works in manuscript before they
were sent to the publishers. I recol
lect his giving me the manuscript of
'Roughing It' to read one afternoon
I was visiting him in the early
seventies. He made a great bit with
'Innocents Abroad,' and he was afraid
be would not sustain his newly acquir
ed reputation. When I began to read
Sam sat down at his desk and wrote
nervously.
"For an hour I read along Intently,
hardly noticing that Sam was begin
ning to fret and shift about uneasily.
At last he could not stand it any
longer, and, jumping up, he exclaimed:
"D— you. you have been reading that
stuff an hour and you haven't cracked
a smile yet. I don't believe I'm keep
ing up my lick.'"
Hie First Newspaper Work.
"Mark Twain lacked only seven
months and nine .days of fourscore
years of age," said Judge C. C. Good
win, a veteran editor of Salt Lake
City, in commenting on the death of
the humorist. Judge Goodwin was one
of the brilliant company who gathered
at the Comstock lode in the old days.
"I know he said that he was only
seventy-four," continued the judge,
"but when we were in Virginia City,
Nev., Mark was older than I was, and
I am seventy-eight. Here is the rec
ord of it." He opened a book of biog
raphies by Amelia J. Carver, published
in 1889. There it was: "Samuel L.
Clemens, born Nov. 30, 1830."
"I did not go on the Virginia City
Enterprise until Clemens left it," said
Judge Goodwin, "but I never ceased
^o hear from him. He first wrote a
bnrlesque Fourth of July oration,
which was published in an Aurora
(Nev.) paper. As I remember it. it be
gan:
'I was sired by the great American
eagle and born* by a Continental dam.'
This pleased Joseph T. Goodman, edi
tor of the Virginia City Enterprise.
He wrote to Clemens, telling him that
If he were not making more than the
Enterprise was paying he would be
welcomed to the staff of the paper.
One day a man came into the editorial
sanctum. He wore a dilapidated hat.
Jeans, a hickory shirt and carried a
roll of blankets. That was Mark
Twain's entrance into literature. Ex
cept for his experience on the Enter
prise it is doubtful if he would ever
have been known as a genius."
A Child's Tribute.
Dan Beard, the artist and naturalist,
who lives only a half mile from Storm
field. Mark Twain's home at Redding,
Conn., where he died, told a recent ex
perience the humorist had confided to
him. He was walking up Fifth ave
nue, in New York, when a little girl
about ten years old slipped her hand
in his and started to match his stride.
"I'm awful glad to see you," she
said.
"Are you?" said he. "That's very
nice."
"Yes," she answered. "I knew you
right away." They continued to the
next corner chatting, be proud that "he
could be so well known that a little
girl like this could pick him out Sud
denly a horrible thought struck him,
and he stopped. "Who am I?" he
asked, turning around. "Why," an
swered his companion, "Buffalo Bill, of
course."
