Marvin Hughitt, President Of

road system, who was making

follows on the condition of the coun-

more prosperous condition of bust
ness. There is notable increase
in population all along the line.
This is especially the case in sec
tions of the Dakotas, where cattle
raising is the principal industry.
The increased earnings of the Chi
cago & Northwestern are due to
good passenger business and thor
oughly diversified freight. Fifty
miles of new track have been laid

idly. Crops to date are in excel

then passed downward, tearing off
the bark, a strip of the outside
wood, and then took a big strip
from the core of the tree. From
the tree the lightning passed to
the ground. The strips were scat
tered all over the street, and one of
the very small pieces struck Mrs.
