behind it. Spring rains for days have
been melting the snow and ice on the
mountainside and streams have been
coursing down into the river.
At 8 O'Clock this morning, lust as
the little hamlet began to stir for
early mass, part of the mountain
started to slide toward the river.

tion in it's wake and those who were
not killed when their homes were en-
quilted were left buried under the
mass of rock and earth.

first in the path of the avalanche. He
and his family of eleven are known to
have persisted. Eight others whose
names have not been obtained are
missing.
Mrs. Desjardin's cottage also was
swept away and she, with her two
children, a domestic and a hired man,
are known to be buried in the land
side.
De Salette, like many hamlets of Its
kind, rambles into gardens and little
fields on the mountainside, 80 about
half of it was not in the path of the
avalanche.
Those first on the seem found De
Salette in a panic with the uniniured
ones packing their belongings for
flight.
Latest reports from De Salette
make the number of known dead
thirty, of which eleven bodies have
been recovered.
In all twenty houses were engulfed
in the slide.

Urge GROWING Of Durum,

Devils L.ake-The durum wheat
growers convention held here was
largely attended by farmers and Gle.
vator and milling men from all parts
of the state.
Prof. Ladd Of the pure food depart
ment of North Dakota was present
and was the principal speaker. In
his discussion he showed plainly how
the elevator and milling interests of
the Northwest had Disseminated in
the prices Of grain and the difference
in price between durum wheat and
fife and blue stem were ridiculous
when the quality is taken into con-
sideration. There were 5000, 900 bush
els of durum wheat milled in the Unit
ed States last year, and still during
that period there was not a single
sack Of durum flour on the market.
Steps were taken to prevent this dis
elimination, and to ask the line ele-
vators to encourage the growing of
durum wheat in that portion of the
state most adapted.
