NOW SELLING SPLIT TICKETS.

E
MUCH annoyance win be saved the
travelling public by an order received
at the Great Northern station here
70 sell what are known as split
tickets. ' that is tickets at the rate
Oh cents a mile in Minnesota and
219{cents in North Dakota. Since
the 2-cent rate law went into effect,
people have been buying tickets to
the state line at 2 cents mile and
then buying scent tickets for the
remainder of the trip, unless they
had too much baggage to be checked
while While the train stopped, in which
case they have been compelled to pay
fppll f7ppll Scent fare to all North Dakota
points. This has been very annoy
1ng as traffic to North Dakota is
heavy. The Dakota 219-cent law
took effect July 7st and the company
has given up the plan of charging
ansinterstate rate for North Dakota
traffic.

Ed. Faulkner, released from the
county jail at Crookston Sunday
night, after serving 80 days on a
charge Of forgery. showed his iron
nerve by Immediately going down
town, forging Sheriff Gonyea's name
to two checks and getting one of
them cashed.
Faulkner stepped into the
Columbia hotel. which is run by Ed.
Thompson, and asked if he could get
small check cashed, which was for
81, and seeing sheriff Gonyea's name
at the bottom in what looked to him
like the sheritf's handwriting, paid
the man the money. The fellow then
walked around the corner to the Wy
gaard confectionery store and pre-
sented another check for payment.
Mr.. Wygaard stepped to the phone
and called up the sheriff to find out
if the check was o. k, and the man
Immediately slid out of the door,
Ofscourse this branded him at once
as aScrook and the sheriff and police
started a search but without avail.
The man has not yet been found.

CHILDREN PER-
ISHED IN FLAMES
Home Of EspIee Homesteader
~, Burns With Loss of
Two Lives. ....-.

Early on Friday morning of last
week the house of Mr.. Kjevle, a
settler IN the town of Esplee. in
eastern Marshall County, was burned
to the ground and two children. aged
5 and years, perished in the flames.
A third child, a mere infant, was
rescued from among the bed clothes
in which it was sleeping, in time to
save it's life, although it was nearly
smothered by the smoke.
The two older children had evid-
emily awakened before dying and had
managed to crawl to the floor, but
there were burned to death. the
little bodies being horribly charred
and burned.
When the fire started the parents
were at the barn doing the morn
ing's milking, and reached the house
too late to help any but the youngest
child.
All of the family's household
goods together with $40 in money,
were destroyed by the fire, which
is believed to have originated from
stroke of lightning. There being
no insurance, the neighbors have
circulated subscription paper to
assist the family in their necessity.

SECURE THE
HAY CROP
Don't Let Any Of the Wealth Sc
BountifuIIy Bestowed Go
To Waste

-. Marshall county has grown all
enormous hay crop this year, and it
has done it in scarcely more than one
months time. Owing to the cold
and late spring, the grass did not
make much of start until the first
week in June, but the bountiful
rains and warm weather of that
month made every spear of grass
take on rapid growth. and by the
first week Of July was ready for the
sickle. s-
All the tame grasses, such as
timothy, mi]let and clover, stand
very thick and tall in the fields,
and the native grasses also. will
yield big crop. And the native
grasses, let it be remembered. are
very nutritious and make most ex.
cellent hay. This native hay crop,
which grows without effort, is a
source of wealth, the Importance oil
which we can hardly entimate.
In former years much, if not the
greater portion of this crop, has beer
allowed to 90 to waste. Last yeal
enough of this native grass was left
uncut to have paid the interest or
all the mortgaged Indebtedness or
the farms of the county. il
had been cut and cured and sold at
the prices paid for hay last spring.
We understand there is hay ship.
per in Warren who is willing to con.
tract now for prairie hay at SIS. so pei
ton and as much more as the market
price may be at the time of delivery.
1t behooves the farmers of Marshall
County therefore to make special
efforts this year 70 secure the hay
crop. and to let none of it, il
possible, 20 to waste. Good, sweet
prairie hay, cut in the right time
and well cured, will always find a
good market, and even if it should
mot, it is all article that will keeI
until another year, if properly put
up and covered. 1t is we'll to take
time by the forelock and figure a
little for next year, when a lighter
hay crop may be raised. Let US
secure the hay crop and convert it
into butter, beef and mutton. It
will be profitable. @

GOOD ROA DIS.

Z This is the stfrne Of the year when
most of the road work is being done.
The month Of June is generally a
rainy month and as rule very little
road work can be done, but up to
present time this year the weather for
road work has been very favorable
and great deal of good work is ac-
complished. Every section line
thruout the county has grade road
with exception of the extreme
eastern part OF the county. and in a
few year the section lines there will
also be graded. After the grades
are ouce built, it is not very
difficult task to keep them in shape.
The main thing is getting the
grades built right from the start.
When we take into consideration the
roads built and the bitches made
during the past ten years, we can
safely say that there is not another
county in the state that has made
such rapid progress, and especially
when population OF the county is
taken into consideration. II the
improving of roads continue as it
has in the past, this county will
soon have the best roads in the
state.-Hallock News.

About thirty former residents of
Illinois gathered for a reunion and
celebration Of the Fourth at the
home of Alfred A. Peterson. west of

served and the day enjoyably spent
in recalling pleasing "reminiscences

getting quite a colony of Illinois
people. and they make good, thrifty

as much of Minnesota as they ever
did of Illinois.

NO HARVEST RATES

Harvesters' rates will not be made
by the railroads this fall. as a result
of the new Interstate passenger
tariffs based OH the 2-cent rate in
Minnesota and the 215-cent late in
North Dakota, effective July the
1st. Railroad officials say that the
new rate makes the fare to the
principal shipping points Of North

tion will be made from the regular
fare. harvester tickets would not be
