for sailed meats it should be done
Moreover the sheep is not out of reach
of all who desire to add mutton to the
list of summer meats.
Next to chicken, sheep may be mos
easily dressed as needed and one sheer
will furnish just enough meat for The
average family until it can be used uL
before spelling. We have been prac-
ticing Strengthening the first thing il
The morning. In the hottest weather
we select smaller sheep or lambs
and when the weather is more favor
able for keeping, we kill large sheep
AS soon as they are dressed, they car
be placed in a refrigerator box OF
hung in a deep well, where they will
keep until they can be used.
1t is a common practice in some To-
calities for farmers to quarter round, ,
which means that one farmer will kill
a sheep and send quarters tic
neighbOrs who, in turn, will dress a
sheep and do the same thing. Nothing
will take the place of sheep for this
purpose. Size being the first good
quality, then comes the merit of NUT
ton as a summer meat which is well
up in the scale, perhaps next to chick
en-.
In dressing mutton we prevent the
"sheepy taste" by doing the work very
rapidly and cooling the entrails by
filling the carcass with cold water as
soon as killed. This is done to arrest
TIE generation of gas that begins as
soon as life leaves the sheep. Where
work can be done in a rapid manner
this may not be necessary, but we
have found that the meat is much
sweeter on account Of this practice
and for that reason we keep it up.
The American Agriculturist tells of
breed of sheep which would be a
good one for this warm climate. If
they will live by browsing like goats
and furnish mutton, which will suit
the taste of American citizens better
than the flesh of goats, they would be
a good thing to have introduced. We
hope to hear more Of them soon.
Woolless Sheep.-'iIf found practic-
able and economical, a breed of wool
less sheep will be introduced into the
United States. On a farm maintained
by the bureau of animal industry
near Bethesda, Md, is a small flock of
Woolless sheep that was brought from
the West Indies last summer by the
bureau of animal industry. It is
hoped these sheep may prove valuable
for embarrassing purposes in the ex>
IRENE southern parts of the United
States, where heavily wooded sheep Of
ten suffer on account of excess fleece.
The attention of the department was
called to these woolless sheep by Sir
Daniel Norris, imperial agricultural
commissioner for the West Indies. In
1903 he visited Washington and told
Of the animals, which are greatly es-
teemed in the Barbados for mutton.
It is thought the woolless sheep are of
-, origin. They are medium
sized, outstanding, practically without
wool and hornless, or nearly so /

The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1906-10-25

The above is excellent likeness OF the Des
Laos Lake bridge, OF which the Independent
readers have heard SO much. The bridge is
across the Des Laos Lake: large body OF
water, three miles east from Bowbells The
lake extends as far as Kenmare on the south,
and also extends over in Canada. 1t is about
sixty miles long and is considered bv Tucle Sam
as navigable body of water For that reason
the county commissioners were compelled to
order a bridge with draw in it.
Recently DR.. Fawcett. who owns several
boats which ply up and down the lake, carrying
grain from Canada to kenmare, complained to
the government because there was no one at the
bridge to operate the draw.
The government ordered the commissioners
to see that man placed in charge at once
The commissioners made satisfactory arrange

ments with the doctor SO that when his boats
wish to pass, the draw is operated.
The bridge has helped Bowbells some, as
some trade which formerly went to kenmare
now goes to Bowbels. The Independent was
never in favor of building such an expensive
bridge at the lake. which by the way, cost the
county about $27 900, for we realized that that
amount OF money spent in building fifty or six
~ smaller bridges in the county, would accom-
modate hundred times the number of people
the Des Laos bridge does. One OF the former
commissioners. S. S. Richardson of Bowbells,
succeeded in inducing Commissioners Carroll
and Black to see the proposition his way, and
the Des Laos Lake bridge was the result. Com
missioner Swanson while not opposing the
building Of a bridge across the lake, wanted one
which cost about $SO0O very sensible idea

SETTLERS SACRIFICES.

What can more positively mark the

huts warm. who, in spite OF their
poverty eng to their demands of SIC

INSTITUTE GETS KNOCKOUT
School Teachers Do Not Have to Go
to Meeting.

At the request of State Superintend-
ent Kramer, Attorney General Hall has
rendered a decision to the effect that
no county superintendent can compel
the attendance of a teacher at a coun-
ty institute held outside the county
boundaries. And, further, that the
county commissioners of any county
cannot legally allow bills for insti-
tutes held outside the county.
1t has been the custom in some Sec
tons of the state for several counties
to join together to hold longer in
stitute than could be afforded by any
one county, the expenses being paid
jointly. This ruling will prevent any
more such joint Institutes being held.
The decision is to cover a situation
in Roberts county, where several of
the teachers refused to attend an in
stitute held at Simpson Park, in Grant
county, and khe refusal of the county
authorities to grant them certificates
on account of such refusal. This ac-
ton on the part of the county super
intendent of that county has brought
on bitter school fight in that coun-
ty, in which sides have been taken by
the two political factions, and out of
which most of the editors in the coun-
ty are either answering to libel suits
or are threatened with having such
suits brought 1t is likely that the
dr. toto - 81
clear the atmosphere, as the basis of
the whole wrangle is practically set
tied by his decision, and is in oppo-
sition held by the county superintend-
ent.

HANGED SELF AS SACRIFICE.
Fanatieism Leads a Farmer to Com
nit Suicide.


nit Suicide.
Telling his wife that he must offer
himself as sacrifice to atone for the
sins Of the world, Carl Moser, a farm
ar, living twelve miles northwest of
lava, committed suicide by hanging
himself in the kitchen of his home.
Java is situated on the Evarts line
Of the Milwaukee railroad in Wal
worth county.
The tragedy was surrounded with
decidedly unusual features. Moser
belonged to what is known as the
Merkel band Of religious fanatics,
which is said to have caused the au-
shorities and people Of that part of
the state great deal of annoyance.
It is also reported that other fanatics,
by making threats, caused Moser to
take his life. Last spring the man
created a sensation by setting fire to
the dwelling house of John Kerner, a
rested, and at the time of his tragic
.eath was under bonds for his ap-
pearance at the May term of the state
circuit court in Walworth county for
trial on the charge of arson.
Moser adopted novel method in
carrying out his plan. He took a
strong cord from a fiynet, fastened
one end to the door of the kitchen.
made loop running through an iron
ring, passed the loop over his head,
tied a bag of potatoes to the other
end of the rope, opened the cellar
door, and after kneeling on the floor,
pushed the sack of potatoes into the
cellar. The weight Of the potatoes on
the end Of the cord drew the loop
tightly about his neck and strangled
him to death.
A short time prior to the finding of
his body and before the other mem
bers of the household were out of
bed, he informed his wife that during
the night God had told him to sacri-
flee himself, AVID that he would follow
the instructions of his creator. He
then went into the kitchen and start
ed fire in the cook stove, after
which he committed suicide.
