was in front OF the Woods livery
barn, about 800 feet from the scene

backed up and caught him. He did
not see the unfortunate man give the
signal to back UP. Berly was caught
between the couplers and his body
almost cut In two just above the waist
line. His arm was also crushed and
life was almost ~Atinct when the
body was found.
Coroner Emil Johnsgaard took
charge of the remains but did not
hold an inquest as it was not deemed
necessary. The body was shipped 60
Great Falls, Mont. the young mans
home.
Berq1y was rs years old and had
been breaking on this line only short

LESS STOCK, MORE WHEAT.
Stark County, a Famous Cow Country
Undergoes a Significant Change.

Dickinson, N. D., Oct. 25-The trans
formation of Stark county, renowned
as a stock raising district of unexcell-
ed qualities, into a wheat growing re-
gion, is rapidly taking place. Dicl1in-
son, the county seat, ia taking it's
place among the state -four manufac-
turing centers and the old cow days
are rapidly disappearing.
Dickinson has two flour mills and
their combined capacity is in the
neighborhood of 1000 barrels daily.
The only trouble the mill owners are
experiencing has been to secure grain
from farmers. This has made It nee
essary to ship grain in. Great guam
titles of wheat are grown near Dick
inson. but the mills have found It i'm
possible to secure enough of it and
have been shipping in from Billings
county.
A campaign is being made over the
entire county and one of the results
viii be, 1T is believed, to bring about
the production Of more wheat in Stark
county next year.
