WILLIAMS COUNTY NORTH DAKOTA

make his own denaturized alcohol
for light and fuel. Dr.. Galloway,
chief of the bureau Of plant in
dustry, under direction of .Secre-
tary Wilson has sent. agents to
study the big potato that is
grown in many sections of the
continent and arrange for Sc
curing seed and transplanting it
in this country.
This potato has small value
for edible purposes but is several
times as large as the ones COM
monty, seen in this country.
From an acre of ground it is
claimed that enough of them can
be produced to make 600 gallons
of alcohol which means light,
heat and power for a farm
household tor a year.
This potato is to be developed
and accli1nated for the different
sections of the United States as
soon as possible. After the al
cohol is taken from it, the residue
is still useful for feeding live
stock. Secretary Wilson and
DR.. Galloway anticipate that in
a few years it will constitute one
of the most useful and valuable
crops.
The department has completed
arrangements with a big estab-
lishment in the west for the use
of 10, 900 tons of it's refuse
stalks, husks, tops, and ends of
beets, cobs, etc.-to be devoted
to systematic experiments in the
reduction Of alcohol. 1t is well
known that there is plenty of
alcohol in all these things. The
proposition is to find whether it
can be taken out at reasonable
cost.

Young Hunter
Is Missing
Youngest Boy Of Frank Smith Goes
Hunting and Does Not Retum--.
Missing Since Sunday.

The youngest son of Frank
Smith, who works for 0. B.
Hayes, went out hunting Sun
day near their farm at Marmon
and has not been heard of since.
The Smith farm is just east of
that owned by Clerk of Court
Brown and a small creek runs
across the Brown place. The
boys brother went to a coal
mine for a load of coal and the
younger brother took his gun
and went to the creek to hunt.
There are a couple of shallow
sloughs near the creek where he
expected to hunt as we'll as on
the creek. Sunday night when
it got dark and the boy did not
show up the family became un-
easy and started out to hunt for
him. He was not found and
Monday hunting party went
out. Monday afternoon word
was brought in to his father and
he hired a rig and drove out.
The country near where the boy
was supposed to be hunting was
gone over thoroughly but up to
yesterday afternoon, when the
last report OF the search came in,
no trace of the boy had been
found. He is a boy fourteen
years old and large for his age.
People who are acquainted with
the country where he was, state
that there was not enough
water in the creek or either of
the sfoughs to drown the boy if
he fell in and his disappearance
is a mystery.
