Minor s. Williams went to
White Earth the other evening
intending to go out to the ranch
and met VIM. Glib, Jr., who
kindly offered to take him out in
an automobile They were &C
companied by Jim Dolan and C.
A. Shepard. Now Billy knows
all there is to be known about
machinery and can handle an
auto as easily as he can set up a
binder but he didn't take into
consideration the fact that auto
mobiles require gasoline. When
eight or ten miles from town the
gasoline gave out. The thing
bucked and Williams and Gibbs
were compelled to walk back to
town. They arrived sometime
between midnight and morning.
Minor swears that he will ride a
bucking broncho before he will
risk an automobile again.

The Shepard boys at White
Earth have received more than
500 from the county for killing
wolves during the past three or
four years.
The White Earth country is
fairly lousy with prairie chickens
this year and the sportsmen in
that vicinity wouldn't hunt the
birds cut OF season for the world.
No game wardens are needed in
the White Earth country. OF
course it is not against the law
to eat the birds when a binder
cuts off their heads, and this
probably accounts for thu prai.

Telephone Extensions.

Active work has been COM
menced by the North Dakota In
dependent Telephone company
on the building Of it's new trunk
line from Fargo to Bismarck.
Two crews Of men have been
put to work, one in the vicinity
of Valley City and one near Far
go. The crew at Valley City is
working east and that near Far
go is working west. Although
the company has not yet secured
q franchise to operate in Fargo
they are getting everything in
readiness to begin operations by
furnishing long distance connec-
tions.
The Tri-state company, with
which the new company will have
all it's interstate connections,
now owns and operates a toll
line which passes through Fargo
on it's way from Minneapolis to
Grand Forks.
L. D. Richardson, general
manager OF the new company,
stated that it is the intention to
push operations as rapidly as
possible. Some difficulty is
being experienced in securing
men to do the work but as soon
as they can be procured several
additional crews will be put to
work.
In answer to a query Mr..
Richardson stated that even if
the new company fails to secure
q franchise in Fargo the pro-
posed trunk line to Bismarck
will be utilized in furnishing d.
rect connections between Bis
marck, Grand Forks and Mime
apolis.

A Fine Colt.

E. R. Walker from Surrey
drove a two year old colt to this
city Wednesday which tipped the
scales at 1900 pounds. The colt
is one Mr.. Walker raised and is
considered one of the finest ami
mails in this part of the state.
Farmers should raise their own
horses and likely will after a
little time. There's no reason
why horses will not be exported
from North Dakota after a few
years. There's no better place
on earth to raise them and the
price will always be first class.

The Test Of 4 Sincerely
Made Coat

II N the Coat chiefyfs to be detected the
absence or present. of good tailoring.
If that GARNET is right, it may be
safely assumed that the trousers and
vest are similarly made.
The pattern, and style having been
elected, the detailslof workmanship may
ow well be considered. The eye will at
nee observe all 9uter edges, and note
determine the "5olan-e" or "eyenness" OF
he coat when donned Handmade Button
,oles declare themselves by the stitching on
he inside.
The lining of the coat should be ample,
nd should not 6indat any point. Attention
hould be paid to. the "outlets" or extra
10th turned in at Sans and all Extremities,
which allow for Tightening or letting out
nd in the case Of seams, prevent ripping.
n cheap or unreliable clothing, the cloth is
ut so seant as to allow scarcely room to sew
ogether. This should be noted carefully.
The coat which does not fit perfectly, is
deserving of no consideration.
Especially is this true of the Collar, which
hould "set" snug against the linen collar,
With the Labeks lying fiat without 6uIging.
But here is one of the danger points in
uch great majority of clothes, even from
makers of otherwise good reputation.
The collar is the most difficult part of a
garment to make right, and it is an easy
natter to shrink or stretch it into shape with
he Hot Flat Iron, and it is a much cheaper
method thar to do it properly.
The SINCERITY zOay is to make such
corrections as may be necessary, by nnaoins
my defective stitching, and correcting it by
he shears and hand needle-work.
This is the way all SINCERITY
CLOTHES are made, and gives pe,manenI
Ihape. Flat-Iron work "zVIlts out" because
defects are only 'masked" for the time being.
One way in which you can detect Flat
Iron taking is to lay the coat fiat on table.
Hold it so as to stretch the collar out.
If it is "dobed" by the Flat Iron, the outer
:4ge of the collar will be cured and zOavy.
If it is carefully hand-re0Ised and properly
tailored, the outer edge of the collar and the
line where it turns over will be perfectly
straight and fiat, and when you put it on, it
will fit close to the collar.
Make this test on any coat, and if you de-
sire thro-and-thro sincerity in suit or over
coat, make sure that you find our label sewed
in the inside breast pocket of the coat.
This is it.
