hens more than one winter NV flock con.
sisting OF rs yearlings and one male bird
laid last winter from II to 18 eggs per day.
This winter the same flock do not lay over
six or eight eggs day. The trouble is they
get too fat and large to do good business the
second winter. Some of my birds now weigh
from 10 to II pounds apiece. Now is the
time to set hens, the sooner the better, az
early roosters will sell for double the price
late pullets will, and besides the early pull
let's begin to lay when eggs are high. I
never could make it pay to raise late hatched
birds. I find ready sale for all my eggs in
the spring for Matching, at good price. The
breed pure stock, as they want the mixed
variety, but that is where they make mis-
take.

The British War Office has been testing
a new electrical range finder for the last
two years. 1t was invented by an Aus
traliaD, who says that it will give the range
and bearings of fixed or moving object,
and at the same time will give information
to any number of fortress guns attached
by wire to the instrument, thus enabling
100 guns, for instance, to concentrate their
fire simultaneously on single ship.

GENTLEMEN OF THE CITY COUNCIL The
citizens of the city OF Belfast, by their right
of suffrage as expressed on the 18th inst.
have made us guardians of their municipal
interests for the coming year, and they will
look to us for a faithful performance of all
our duties In the year that lies before us
will come many questions for settlement
that will require your careful consideration,
and l trust that friendly feeling and har-
mony in all discussions and decisions may
be maintained, and that all may work to.
gether tor the common good
Undoubtedly, Republican voters placed us
here, but now we are not the representativ yes
of the Repu bliCan voters alone. We do not
do our full duty unless We heed the right of
all citizens, without reference to party
affiliations. We should remember that we
are the servants of the people, and loyalty
to their interests should be our constant
endeavor. While, with regret, we miss sew
eral of those associated with us during the
past year, yet We cordially welcome to the
council the new members, and feel certain
that their ability and earnestness will prove
a valuable addition to our forces.

many years, the score being ex-
ceedingly low-3 to l. Why the
Larimore papers did not deign to
even mention this game, which
took place in their own gay city,
is a profound mystery. That
some of the Larimoreites were sore
was plainly evident during the
game but our boys could not help
beating them SO badly, although
Larimofe had recruited the swift
est players in all the neighboring
towns, leaving only three Lari-
more players in the whole aggre-
cation. The redoubtable Flana-
gan, on whom the Larimore fans
staked their fondest hopes, was Sc
cured to pitch for Them. But Ball
was a surpriser and the Lake boys
showed them where they were from
Ball gave the Larimore players
only one hit while Flanagan was
batted heavily, but succeeded in
scattering the hits. A large crowd
witnessed the game. The loca1
team has secured Ball as pitcher
for their Chautauqua games. He
is whirl-wind.

Chautauqua to help along this
movement. 1t would swell the
attendance wonderfully, fori it is
doubtful if one special train will
accommodate the large number
which would go from these three
towns. To induce greater inter
est it would seem advisable for the
Chautauqua managers to arrange
for ball game on this day between
the Willow City ball team and
some other organization. The
club is sufficiently strong to put
up good argument against any
team which they would be likely
to run up against down the line,
and by making arrangements for
such game, not only is good at
traction for the day procured but
it insures an immense crowd from
Bottineau county. The Willow
City base ball team will not
encounter the Boston Bloomer
girls-and boys-at Towner next
Saturday. The Towner club will
play them. .-Bottineau Courant.

system in this state will be can
vassed by energetic ticket sellers.
The price of the tickets is within
the reach Of all, and all true North
Dakotans will buy at least one to
help pay for the finest and largest
building in which to hold gather
ings in the Northwest.
Locally the people have gone
down into their pockets to a man
and contributed literally towards
the permanent improvements on
the North Dakota Chautauqua
grounds. These improvements are
for the benefit of all North Dako-
tans, as this summer resort is a
North Dakota institution. The
annual assembly is not money
making scheme. They are given
to permit everybody to take a few
weeks delightful outing at a very
moderate cost, and the people Of
Devils Lake should not be asked
to contribute beyond their means
to bring about this state Of affairs.
They will. of course, patronize the
auditorium opening, and it be-
hooves citizens along the Great
Northern to show their apprecia-
ton Of what is being done for their
amusement by Devils Lake people,
and help pay for the building Of
this great convention hall and
mammoth play house, by pur-
chasing tickets for the opening.

The Auditorium.

The Chautauqua directors have
during the past week completed
colossal auditorium on the Chau.
tauqua grounds. The structure is a
credit to the state, and everybody
in North Dakota should take sufi-
cient pride in this great building,
erected for the pleasure and
amusement of all, to contri-
butte small sum to help pay the
enormous amount necessary to
build it. To give all an oppor-
tunity to show their fealty to
North Dakota pluck and energy
in substantial contributions, the
Auditorium committee has decided
Devils Lake inter-ocean. (Devils Lake, Ramsey Co., Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1905, 1900-06-22

A Good Suggestion.

1t seems quite evident that there
will be no general celebration of
the Fourth of July in Bottineau
county. And the people want to
celebrate somewhere. It would
be for this reason good plan for
Bottineau, Omemee and Willow
City to pull together in the effort
to get special train from here to
Devils Lake on that day. It
would also be a good plan for the
management Of the Devils Lake
