Thanksgiving day seems to have
been 9 dry Of events with us. Ed
Hanson ia l'e 9 threshipg rig cro ssed Thief
River in safety the night before at
Bjorgum's ford half mile north Of
Nels 1Olson's and on Thanksgiving
morning. Mr.. Bjorsum' 5 team broke
through the ice at the same place.
The team was hitched to the ma
chimes water tank, and but for the
heroic efforts of Nels Olson and the
threshing crew Mr.. Bjorgum would
have lost a valua BILE team. While
trying to reach the horses Ole Alfred
broke through and had to be assisted
out. Later in the day Joe Znubal
jumped from the top Of the separator
and landed on an old rake buried in
the snow, and drove one 81 the wood

requiredithe efforts oftwo men to pull
the tooth out. Considering no
greaterldamage was done we should
be truly thankful.
Wheat is going no / hard and
yields on average Of Is to IS bushel

raise crops up here in the swamps.
Ed. Hanson put the threshing rig
on sleds and will not stop until
threshing is completed. Ed is the

picture Of his manure spreader now
patentable and ready for use. The
inventor has not received a patent yet,
because he has not yet been able &c

About 1928 is lacking; but as the
spreader works admirably, many

Wee to secure the patent.
