An Unsuccessful Guest.

Deputy Sheriff Cotton returned
Saturday from trip over to Har-
vey and along the Jimtown branch.
It seems that Frank Hughes, more
familiarly known as 'dad,' hired a
team belonging to Mr.. Sisson, to
go out threshing northeast Of here.
No word has been received from
him since his departure, and he has
not returned the team. The mis-
sion of Deputy Cotton was to dis
cover the location of the aforesaid
Hughes, or more particularly, the
team. But no team could he find,
and whether "Dad :" has wandered
outQf the beaten path Of the thresh-
ers, or has taken the team and set
out to get a contract on the Panama
canal, is matter Of conjecture. In
the meantime, Sisson is wondering
where he gets off at, and thus far
has not been able to figure the
problem out-Wilton News.

''The luck Of the unlucky,' may
be said about j. E. Booth, who was
assisting in turning the material
which is being hoisted up to the
men at work on the cribbing Of the
Great Western elevator this fore
noon when the gin broke and he
fell on his knees on the top Of the
cribbing, and not having time to
get out of the way of the broken
gin, was struck on the head and
fell to the ground, a distance of 80
or 35 feet. The only injuries no.
ticeable was a bruise on his head
where the broken timbers struck
him and broken arm, which was
set by DR.. Brown, who was assisted
by druggist Hambleton. Mr.. Booth
is rapidly improving, and will leave
for his home in Cedar Rapids, Ia,
as soon as he gets permission from
the doctor.

SMUT in WHEAT,

The past harvest was an excel.
liant demonstration of carelessness.
Many farmers neglected to properly
treat their seed wheat as a preven-
,tion against smut, with the result
that many thousand dollars will be
lost when the crop is marketed. A
little time and a triding expense was
saved during seed time, but the pen
atty proves quite heavy when the
wheat was put on the market. The
danger from seeding smutted grain
has been SO thoroughly exploited
by the North Dakota experiment
station that farmers can only blame
themselves for the losses they have
sustained. External vigilence is
the price of safety" and farmers
cannot afford to be less exact in
their work and calculations than
business men in general. The fact
that the crop is practically free
from smut one year is no criterion
for the next.
Perhaps no class Of men pay more
dear for their experience than do
the farmers. With an experimental
knowledge of the losses sustained
from carelessness this year, it is to
be hoped that all wheat will be
thoroughly treated with formalde-
hyde next spring. Wheat produc-
ton is the principal occupation of
the North Dakota farmer. It is
his chief money crop, and he can
afford to take every precaution
against damage to the crop. While
farming may not be an exact sci
ence, yet the farmer should, as far
as possible, be as exact in his work
as is the banker or merchant.-No.

Measure the stack for length, width

ITO wereod cases that had not boon reported
by the physicians, who have been very
negligent about the matter Az o matter
of fact most Of these ITO cases should be
