A Clever Dog.


We had dog named Spot. He was
a very clever dog and could do many
tricks.
Spot could jump rope; he would let
us dress him up, and he would act as il
ne were drunken He could say his
prayers. Spot would put his feet on a
chair and put his head down., and we
would say a little prayer, and when
we would say amen he would get down.
When he wanted to come in the
house he would tap on the door witk
his paw.
When he had done ANYTHING wrong
he would know it, and he would go in
a corner and lie down; then, after a
while, he would come back and look in
our face, as if to excuse himself. Spot
got run over by aiwagon and died the
next day. We missed him very much.

Garbage Collection.

To the Editor of The Journal. 5:5.t +.
+, ,.lBeingia a stranger In Minneapolis Il am
desirous of being informed as to the
garbage regulations. Let me inquire
If there Is : a garbage :. inspector in
Minneapolis and whether there Is
any regular. collection of garbage.
In the block in which / live the garbage
collector comes along once In two weeks
or perhaps sometimes day or SO sooner.

sides.
DR.. Gillette has organized Social
Science club. Over forty students
have joined. 1t will meet every Mon
day at Ago p. m. Its subject is the

FLOW OF WATER Ter,
Found in l5 Foot Ledge at Depth Of 400 Feet
Which Produces at Rate of l25 Gallons Per
Minute. Boring Still Continues and Greater
Flow Expected in Next Ledge.

A good flow of soft water has been
found in the city we'll and last Saturday
steam pump was in action nearly all
day without materially diminishing the
supply.
The we'll had been sunk to depth
of 3o7 feet, 15-foot sand rock drilled
through, and near the bottom of this
ledge the stream of water was tapped.
The water forced itself to within 50 feet
of the surface. A pump cylinder was
lowered into the hole to depth of 200
feet, or within about 100 feet of the
source of the stream, and with an 18-inch
stroke the water was lifted at the rate of
IS gallons per minute. 1t is figured that
if the cylinder had been placed at the
fountain head the stream would have
been capable of supplying I25 gallons
per minute.
But even this amount would not be
sufficient for city like Dickinson, at
least after the mains had once been ex-
tended, and Mr.. Mccarthy, the we'll con-
tractor, was instructed to drill deeper.
Accordingly he has reduced the size of
the hole from 10 to an 8-inch pipe and
is going down deeper.
Things look very encouraging now,
and Mr.. Mccarthy rather expects to find
plenty of water at a depth of 700 or 500

Three Indian Bucks Secure Release from

Bismarck Tribune: The American
Indian is fast catching on to the ways of

Ralph Wells is II years old and was
married to Red Eye, the daughter of a
famous Rec warrior, in 1892. She was
80 years old at her marriage and she has
made life interesting for her young
hubby until he finally rebelled in 1904,
when she left him. They graciously
allowed the old lady to have five child

In all these cases the wives had i'm.
bibed the ideas of their white sisters as
to their rights in the home and insisted
that the men do little more of the
wood chopping and trites like that, and
after all efforts to reform them in this
respect had failed, they left them to
hustle for themselves, as they imagine
all right thinking white wives do under
like circumstances. The bucks had a
different tale to tell, and as they had
witnesses to back them up, and the
wives made no contest, the divorces
were granted and the freed men went
home rejoicing, especially Spotted Wolf,
who, it if said, will soon wed another
dusky maiden of the prairie.

many are doing just as impractical
a thing in feeding COWS that are bred

We ought to do more breeding and
feeding for special purpose. If we
like dairying why not buy good
sire of the dairy breed, that we like,
and cross him with the COWS we have
and try to improve our herds so they
will be more profitable. We are still

COWS we have were properly fell their
capacity to make butter, no doubt,
would be doubled. We do not know
what they are capable of doing but
it stands to reason that those that are
bred for dairy performances ought
to he the best COWS.
A farmer who had herd of dairy
bred COWS contracted all his milk for
year to an experimental farm close
by. AT the close of the year the ex-
Perimental farm bought the whole
herd and at the end of the second
year it was that each of the herd had
doubled their milk production and
some, considerable more. Not long
ago man in Wisconsin bought a
dairy bred COW from a Minnesota
dalryman, for an average price for
what the Minnesota dairyman con-
s'dered an average dairy COW. Last
year this same COW produced 1920
pounds OF milk which made 1000
pounds of butter. Let us d. a little

Average per COW $46. AZ.

These statements show that good
dairying is being done and, consid
ering the low price of land and the
cost of keeping the COWS, larger net
profits are realized than is possible
on high priced lands and the larger
gross earnings per COW Of many
eastern or middle west dairy sections.
Not all the profits or benefits of
dairy farming can he put into a
statement that shows only the money
received from the milk alone.
Dairying has not reduced the a.
mount of wheat or fax raised d
Morton county but has had wonder
full influence in introducing diversi-
fed farming and the dairymen are
far in advance of other live stock
farmers in this respect. Where few
years ago they depended almost
wholly on native grass and hay, they
are now raising millet, timothy,
brome-grass and fodder corn, while
alfalfa and clover are also being in
troduced by the more progressive
farmers. The soil fertility will be
conserved aud at the same time the
danger OF complete crop failure,
that any country that depends on
rain for moisture and a one crop
system of fal ming, is subject to, is
practically insured against.
The sod stables, native prairie hay
and beef type dairy cattle have sew
ed their time and purpose admirably
but with better, more comfortable
stables and feeds that are adapted for
milk production comes demand for
COWS that will produce larger yields
of butter fat. II there is a good mar
gin OF profit in keeping herd Of

CUSTER TRAIL RANCH
To Be Opened May by Managers of Peacock
Inn of Miami Florida

The News, published at Miami. Fla,
recently contained the following article,
which will be of special interest to Press
readers. who have enjoyed so many
pleasant visits at the famous "Custer
Trail" south of Medora:
Nessrs. G. F. Schneider & Sons, of the
famous old Peacock Inn at Cocoan1t
Grove, have secured the management of
the Custer Trail Ranch, near Medora,
N. D., which they will open for the ac-
commodation of guests May 1st, 1906.
In connection with the ranch is operated
a perfectly appointed hacienda.
Situated in the heart Of the grand can
yons of "The Bad Lands" in the last of
the great free range country, here can be
seen the last stand of the old west-the
last of the cavalier horseman race-the
cowboy and his herds,a life full of in
terest, action and color. The locality is
rich with romance. legend and history.
Within few miles is President Roose-
velts former ranch, and on the Custer
Trail Ranch General Custer prepared
his last stand against the Sioux.
A beautifully illustrated folder de-
scriptive of this, probably the most
unique summer resort in America, is
being prepared by the managers and
any information desired may be had by
addressing the Peacock Inn at Cocoanut
Grove.
The many Miami friends of Messrs.
G. F. Schneider & Sons wish them every
success in the management of their new
resort and are glad to learn that they
will still continne to be the proprietors
of the most southerly hotel on the main
land of the United States, the good old
Peacock Inn, at Cocoanut Grove.

feet.
A good flow of water which forced
itself to within 80 feet of the surface was
found at depth of 800 feet in l5-foot
vein of coal.
When the Northern Pacific people
drilled for we'll near the round house
some years ago the same ledge was
struck, but it was only $ feet thick, indi.
eating that as you go north the ledge
gets thicker and the flow of water cor
respondingly greater.
The estimate of engineers for the city
last spring was that 100000 gallons OF
water per day would be needed for a
water works system, and this would
mean flow of 500 gallons per minute
for 10 hours of the day, or $50 gallons pei
minute for period of 20 hours each
day.
1t is now >reasonably demonstrated
that the city can at least get pernan.
ent supply Of fine water, adequate for all
purposes, by sinking two or three wells
to depth of 400 feet; but it is hoped
that an abundance of water will be found
in the next ledge, so that one will suppl,
all needs.
The cost of drilling the 1o-inch hole
all piped, to depth of 400 feet, has
been about $4,000.
