I0WAN IS PLEASED
With INVESTMENT
GEORGE NAEVE BOUGHT LAND IN
EMMoNs COUNTY AND Is
GLAD OF IT
Has $500 Acres Of Lands and Ten
ants Have Made Money for Selves
and Owner This Season.

Editor Tribune: / beg to call your
attention to the fact that I this day
received a copy of your paper under
date Of October 3, 1909, which was
sent me by friend of mine who is
now located up in your part of the
country. I have read the paper with
great interest, and I note that you
state that the land up there is very
productive, and it only needs good
farmers to produce fine crops, and
that there are great opportunities fol-
people to buy your lands at present
prices. can substantiate these
facts to quite an extent, as myself
and a friend of mine here in Deni-
son own some land near Bismarck,
but our principal holdings are at
Kintyre, in the northeast corner of
Emmons county, N. Oak. My friend
and myself own $500 acres of land
there, which is known as the Dougal
Campbell ranch. We purchased the
same of Mr.. Campbell about two
years ago. At the time Mr.. Camp
bell was the owner, he principally
used it for raising stock, and had
very little land under cultivation, but
since we have come into possession
of it, we have put considerable land
under cultivation, and last spring we
got three good German farmers from
here and sent them up there as our
tenants, and this is their first year
up there.
I recently returned from trip to
the Pacific coast and on my way home
I stopped off at Kintyre, and was all
over the place. I was greatly sur
prised at the fine crops our men have
up there. They will thresh in the
neighborhood of ten thousand BUSH
els of grain and fax.

MADE al $4,000 in FIVE
YEARS In This COUNTY
BURLElGH COUNTY FARMER
CAME HERE FIVE YEARS AGO
.. H.. FROM WISCONSIN
Lived in that State Twenty.four Years
and Arrived Here Broke-Muel'er
Now Worth $1,000.

Joseph Mueller ST., of Stark, came
to this county from Wisconsin in
i August, 1904. Relating his expert
ence he says:
came to North Dakota with my
family consisting of eight children
without cent of money. Today
own 1874 acres of land and have 100
acres under cultivation and 20 acres
In nice hay land, the balance is fenced
in for pasture. This fall threshed
400 bushels Of wheat, 400 bushels OF
oats and 200 bushels of flax, I would
have threshed twice as much If the
hail had not damaged the grain. OF
live stock I have six horses, seven
COWS, three calves and five pigs and
about 100 chickens. I have all the
necessary farm machinery to work
400 acres and about 80 tons of hay put
up. Next fall l will prove up, then
my property will be worth $4,000,
which I have made in fiv1 years.
In Wisconsin I lived "a yeas and
all ] could save up was enough money
to come to North Dakota. I am very
glad that came and have made up
my mind that my home will be here
forever, i have been in several differ
ent states but North Dakota suits me
best of ALL

Why a farmer should ship calves
and yearlings to the stock markets
at st. Paul and Chicago when there
are thousands of bushels Of corn and
thousands of acres of grass on which
to raise them to three and four years
old and put them on the market at a
high price for beef, is problem that
George Gussner, the we'll known Bis
marck merchant cannot understand.
On a recent trip to South St. Paul
Mr.. Gussner found that hundreds of
head of young stock had been dump
ed on the market for sale. There
was no outlet for them, no especial
demand, and they brought little or
comparatively nothing to the farmers
who shipped them.
Mr.. Gussner says this practice
should be discouraged vigorously.
There is plenty of feed and grass
pasture in the state and these young
cattle could be matured and would
add materially to the wealth of the
farmers owning them. When mature
cattle are selling at six and seven
cents hundred weight and prime
steer brings $50 to 500 on the mar
ket, no farmer should ship young
stuff.

LATE FLAX GOOD YIELD.

The fact that frost has kept off
grain and fax until such a lat per-
iod this year has made it possible for
late sowed fax to ripen without any
serious injury. This fax promises to
be the best in yield and the best
quality, but many did not expect the
crop to pull through at one time. A
good deal Of late fax threshing is yet
to be done.

JAMES MACHIN BURNED

This morning about 1O.3O. O. cock. MT. James Machin of the Pl & N. w. machine shops, re- ceived painful burns on his hands which will necessitate his ceas- ing work for several days.
 Mr. Machin in the performance of his duties came too near to the blaze from the furnace, and his clothing caught fire, and the injuries resulted in his suc- cessful attempt to disrobe him. self. with the assistance Of fel- ow workmen before the flames reached his body.
 Mr. A. P, Burris master meS chanic of the road was slightly burned in saving his employee from great injury.
 Mr. Machin is a former Little Rock citizen coming here several months ago and is a son of Engin- eer Machin of the ley Route

TO OPEN TIMBER LAND.

Harrison, May 7.-More than o75, ,OOO acres of timber land wi,l be brought into touch with a market if the project for a rail- road now being pushed by Col. l.. $. Powers general manager of the St. Louis Slave Co, is sue cessfullly eliminated. After long effort Col Powers has succeeded in interesting capitalists to a. degree that an expert, whose ser vices cost S4 300 for two weeks work, by the way has just com pieted an investigation and will make it is confidently expected, a favorable report.
 The line would run from Har- rison to Fort Smith. 1t had been thought that tunnel through the mountains would be neces- sary at point on the propos- ed line but this expensive feature can be eliminated according to Engineer Walter Loring Webb, the Philadelphia expert who made the investigation for the capitalists.
 The estimate made several years ago by an engineer employ ed by Col. Powers was found con- serva tive With the exception that the tunnel can be eliminated by making a deep cut.
 In addition to timber there are zine and marble and other min erals in paying quantities.
 It is figured that the revenue the road would get on hauling the timber from territory tribu- tary to the line, would amount to $7,6SO,OOO,
 The engineers investigat tion dealt not only with the topo- graphy of the country and it's resources but with the possible tonage for years to come and the laws local and general, af- fecting the enterprise.
 It is the general belief by the well-informed here that the road will be built

FOR A SECOND ASYLUM

Litt.e Rock. May s - County Judge Joe Asher, of pu.- aski county. is taking an active part in securing the passage of the bill appropriating a sum sui ficient for the second insane asy- ium. He believes the general fund should not pay for the er- ection of the buildings either, but have a special tax levy of one quarter of a mil for two years Judge Asher is explaining to the iegisla tors where there are 800 insane persons over the state in jai.S which cannot be acCommO- dated in the present state hos pita.. He also explains than an insane person who is confined in a padded cell in jail has little chance of recovery, fWhi c a large percentage of those at the state institution soon recover their full mental capacities.

CITIZENS AROUSED

Hot Springs, May S. Citizens are aroused over the operations of a band of pickpockets whose increasing boldness has engend- cred indigna tion and criticism of the police department. The crim- inals are believed to have the pro lection of a well-known ''fenceN of "go-betweens' who have for number of years borne the repu- tation of fronting for crooks, big mitt operators and other swindlers. So far evidence has not been obtained by persons who would use it against the man In question but the condition is a matter of common belief based on convincing circumstantial ev- idence.
 The publicity that is being giv- en the matter by the local press is expected to force the cessation of the crooked work for a time but a permanent stop is not eX- pected until the fence" is c,ean- ed up once and for all,
 The opera tions of the pickpoc- kets while not approaching in extent their workings of former days recalls to the older citizens the incident of a number of years ago when citizens com mittee rounded up the pickpoc- kets. swindlers, tin horn gamblers and other crooks well known to members of the posse and at the muzzels of guns forced them to flee from town.

HAIL STONES BIG
 AS COCOANUTS
Several We're Picked Up that Wouldn't
 Go Inside of a Mans Hat.

The following, taken from yes terdays issue of the Daily Tex arkanian is respectfully referred to the editor of the Gazette.
 Mr. Parker brought to Texar- kanian office today a willow sapling about two inches in diam eter which he cut from the WoOus near Sheppard, Ark, between Fulton and Hope and the scene of the great hail storm of last Monday night.
 The bark is nearly all beaten from the body of the sapiing, the work as Mr. Parker states of the hail storm.
 It is claimed that some of the hail stones were large as goose eggs. Mir, F. B. Hardness who vis- ited the scene shortly after the storm ceased states that he found hundreds of hail stones that were larger than cocoanuts,- and sev- eral were so large that they would not go in his hat,
 The encyclopaedia to the con- trary, notwithstanding.

RAGING INTEREST INCREASES

Little Rock, May $ - Many of the Hot Springs race track boosters who came to Lit tie Rock Thursday afternoon to urge the passage of the Wad- ley bill left for home last night, but they did not abandon the fort, for others are arriving to- day to take their places. The boosters received a slight set back yesterday when the House refused to call the bill up out of it's regular order lacking only a few or the required two thirds to get the bill before the house. They were greatly en- couraged though by the motion to bring the bill up by receiving considerab,y more than a major ity of the House which they say insures a favorable action on the bill once it's comes up. They are determined to see the bill comes up too.
