helping this thing out"

turned from a six weeks visit

DAVID LLOYD. owe have in
creased the force OF men at our

ARTHUR LESUEUR: II believe
that the Socialist convention
which will be held in Minot next
Saturday, will have 60 delegates.
You will find in the Socialists,
men who are not afraid to speak
their convictions. The trouble
has been with the Socialists OF
Ward county, they have been
afraid of throwing their votes
away and many have voted eth
er the Republican or Democratic
ticket but they will not do SO this
year.
o. A. KNUDsoN: II am on my
way to Tagus, N. D. from Pelican
Rapids, Mimi, with a horse and
buggy. l have driven all the
way 400 miles and started July

25 miles. Some days | rested
and did not travel at all. | in
tended shipping through, but
through a little revenge, l made
up my mind to drive. | am
pretty tired and will be glad
when l get to Tagus. You may
put me down for your paper"
w. f. MANSFIELD: 81 want to
tell you that l found some rust
in Erick Ramstad's wheat field
near town this morning. I do
not believe it will get very bad.
This is the first rust | have ever
seen in the grain in this part OF
the state and l do not want to
see it spread. | do not believe
that it will spread if we do not
get too much wet weather. The
rust starts near the bottom OF
the grain and works upward
finally settling over the heads
stopping all development: ]
think it is caused from some kind
of a germ. The rust in the grain
/ saw was in specks about the
size of a pin head"
