Devils Lake, N. D., Dec e.. H
Blatherwick, a resident OF Iowa, owns
considerable land in the vicinity OF
Lakota. III. A. King is farmer re-

large tracts of land in Nelson and
Ramsey counties. King had thresh-

OF Blatherwick's farms. He also had
an unsecured account against the ten
ant who raised the grain. We are re-

King for the threshing but instead of
cancelling the lien, King credited the
amount on the unsecured account. He
afterwards went to the farm, during
the tenants absence, seized the grain
without process OF law, marketed it,.
kept the proceeds and cancelled the
lien.
About this time Mr.. Blatherwick ar

REMARKABLE YIELDS
.. IN kIDDER COUNTY.

Steele Ozone: We here give the
item about what we believe is the big
gest yield of corn in North Dakota, so
far as heard from F. p. Hutchinson
who lives in 141-74. planted last spring
In May eighty -four square rods Of his
best land, on the north slope, to corn.
an early but good sized variety Of
flint. This fall he cut and shocked
1t into sixty three shocks of practically
the same number Of hills each. He had
wagered with a neig11bor during the
summer that the corn would ripen and
go thirty bushels to the acre. Recent
ly to get an idea of the chance Of win
ming, they husked out two or three
shocks and eacn gave from three to
four half-bushel measures to the
shock. At the usual rate of two BUSH
els of ears to the bushel of shelled
corn, this would produce easily over
fifty bushels Of snelled corn to the
eighty -four squares or a trifie over
half an acre. Mr.. Hutchinson says he
did a good deal Of work on the corn,
the last cultivation being after it had
tasseled out. They were planted a foot
apart.
His flax this year went eighteen
bushels to the acre, and at $1.60 a
bushel that piece of land brought S2s
an acre for one crop. He said he start
ed farming with some doubts, but no
longer has any. Has had better crops
than the average in Wisconsin or Ne
braska. How does this show up for
Kidder county?

Valley City Worried.

Valley City, N. D., Dec. 6--If the
present strike OF the switchmen con-
tinues to tie up freight traffic, Valley
City will suffer coal famine. At the
present time there is not to exceed
thirty days supply In the city and only
one coal dealer estimated the supply
as that great. 1t is probable that WITH
the mill and the electric light plant
shut down that the supply in the city
would be sufficient for from twenty to
thirty days. When the car shipments
of the hotels, the normal and large
business concerns which buy in car lots
cease to arrive periodically, the coal
In store will vanish, and it would oc-
casion no surprise II 1t was exhausted
In two weeks.

dered unconscious by being struck by
team and left to get home as best
he could, was the experience of
Charles "Opens, a brakeman, residing
at 1921 University avenue. "Opens
was coming along Ashton street on his
way home and noticed a team coming
at a good rate of speed. He en-
deavored to get out Of the way and
the next thing he remembers is that he
was lying by the side of the road. He
walked home with difficulty and
doctor was summoned 1t was found
that the man had suffered a fractured
collarbone and broken rib. He will
recover unless there are some internal
injuries. According to "Opens story,
he has no idea whatever OF who ran
him down. He did not even notice the
horses, merely taking a casual glance
at them as he tried to get out of the
way. When he regained conscious
ness there was no team within sight.

SEARCH N. D. FOR
MRS. ]. D. ROANEY
NEEDED TO SETTLE ESTATE OF
HER MoTHER-NoT HEARD
FROM IN TWENTY YEARS.

A search is being made in North
Dakota for Mrs. John Roaney, a wo-
man who has not been heard from
for over twenty years and who is now
badly needed to settle up the estate
Of her mother. Her maiden name was
Clara Olstad, and she was welded in
Hillsboro twenty-six years ago, and
1t was six years later that she disap-
peared so far as her relatives are con-
cerned.8iS
Very little is known by her rela-
tives and other heirs Of the mothers
estate of Mrs. Roaney, and they do
not even know if she still retains that
name. When last heard from she had
two boys, the eldest ones name being
Patrick, and he would be a little over
twenty years Of age at present.
Mr.. and Mrs. ]. c. Leum of MayvilIe
are conducting the search for the wo-
man, VINO is described as being about
SO years of age and is feet 8 inches
tall.

FIVE COUNTIES
Finish TASK
ToWNER, STARK, ADAMS, Ro-
LETTE AND KIDDER GET SILL
YER SERVICE FUND
COMPLETE.

Grand Forks, N. d., Dec. give
counties have completed their an
portionments for the battleship NORTH
Dakota silver service fund, and have
deposited the amounts with a com
Portable little sum over with the sec
rotary, B. r. Brockhoff, who will as
quickly as possible mail each SUB
scriber their souvenir receipt card.
The amounts sent in by the five
counties are as follows: Towner, $275:
Stark. $202.25; Adams. $S725; Rolette.
1853: Kidder, s131.
All the other counties are coming
well to the front and returns show
up strong, with the exception OF two
who so far have been slow.
Ward county will come to the front
in good shape in a few days. Martin
jacobson, one of the greatest i1ustlers
for anything of patriotic or public
nature in the state, is in charge and
will mail check for imperial Wards
full apportionment shortly.
The secretary urges now, that ali
money collected so far be sent in as
quickly as possible, and not later than
Dec. 10, if it can be helped. A meeting
of the battlesnip commission must be
called by the 18th to give the order
for the service and the members are
anxious for as good a showing as pos
sible of money in the bank when the
order is given.
In collecting money for the fund the
work in some Of the small towns and
villages OF the state has been quite re-
markable. 1t Is not the big towns by
any means that have come forth first
with their apportionment, but in most
cases the smaller ones. Inkster was
one Of the first to be heard from in
Grand Forks county and sent In over
$40. Sharon, a small town in Steele
county, raised like amount by just
leaving the subscription list at the
bank with the cashier The Sharon
citizens just flocked in to give their
dollar and hurried their list in for
fear they would be day or two be-
hind. Such work as that makes it
easy sailing for the secretary and all
the others in charge.
