TWO THOUSAND
HEAD OF CATTLE
County Commlssloser Wa. Black, Of Chilcet.
Is 0ae Of the Largest Cattle Owaers
Ia State.

County Commissioners Vim.
Black when he is not attending
to his numerous duties as CON-
missioner, looks after his exten-
sive stock interests at Chilcot, in
the western part OF the county.
Mr.. Black has an ideal ranch
home, and has the distinction OF
being one Of the largest cattle
owners in this part OF the state.
He now has over 1000 head OF
fine cattle, Notwithstanding that
he shipped several car loads last
fall. "This has been an Ideal
winter for cattle, said Mr.. Black
to an independents representative
the other day. .'My cattle look
fine and they do not need nearly
as much hay as they did last
winter. Yes, a war between ia
pan and Russia would mean
much to the ranchers. The price
OF cattle would be bound to go
up. I donot want to be under
stood as wishing war, for that
purpose, but l do want to see
the price OF beef advance"

the greenbacks were found creas-
ed under the windows. Hermes
has q bad record. On November
Z he stole q mare and q colt,
wagon and harness from Mr..
Linehart. Later he stole a mort
gagged mare from Geo. Parron
and sold the animal across the
line. He then took 81, 900 from
Krauegar's potato bin, and
skipped with the mans horse.
Krauegar didn't believe in banks.
Potato bins were safer. Hermes
borrowed $40 from the old man
and watched where he secreted
the money. Hermes seems to be
a progressive Russian, having
been in this country but three
years. 1t didn't take him long
to catch onto the ways OF Ameri-
cans, and he will be a valuable
addition to Bismarck's twine
plant.

discovered $500, 25 twenty
dollar bills, sewed in the crotch
of the mans trousers and robbed
him. Hermes demonstrated with
them and promised to allow
them to keep $3.50 OF the money
and say nothing-if they would
give him back half Of the money.
The Jailer, Jack DAILY, heard the

Impure Foods.

In another part OF the paper
will be found the list Of impure
foods which Prof. Ladd, the state
chemist has found were on sale
in the state. This is perhaps not
all OF the impure foods, but a
major part Of them. Prot. Ladd
has been untiring in his efforts
and his work will result in much
good. Cut this out Of the paper
and put it away for reference.
Merchants are especially warned
to notice the foods, as after July
1, they will be illegal. Statistics
show that a great deal ofsickness
is caused by eating adulterated
foods. Read the list with care.
