Potatoes a Paying Crop.

G. F.. Herald: F. H. Sven, Of Gilby,
is one of the men who is convinced that
potato raising in North Dakota will
pay. Mr.. Sven was formerly in the
grain business at Honeyford and later
at Gilby for several years and is now
launching out into the potato growing
industry. This year he has 40 acres of
potatoes in crop and plans to steadily
increase this acreage as he sees fit. He
is also putting up q, 900 bushel potato
storehouse at Gilby. This warehouse
is to be used not only by Mr., Sven but
by other potato growers of the vicinity.
There are already several hundred
acres Of potatoes near Gilby and accord
ing to Mr. Sven the average yield per
acre will be high. He thinks that po-
tatoes are a. splendid crop to clean up
the land, as nearly twice as much wheat
can be grown on land after it has been
given rest by being sown to potatoes.
Mr.. Sven is enthusiastic over the future
prospect of the industry in the state
and believes that the time is not far
away when the Red river valley pota-
toes of North Dakota will bring the
highest prices in the southern markets.
The acreage around Gilby sown to po-
tatoes has been steadily increasing in
the last few years and Mr.. Sven pre-
diets another big increase next year.

Law of the Road.

The question h frequently been
propounded in the hearing of The Tri-
bune as to whether any special rights,
one over the other, were accorded teams
or automobiles in their passage of one
another in going over the public high
ways. and as there is state law govern
ing the action and defining the duties
Of each in such case, we give it below,
that all may the better understand their
rights and duties in the premises. Sec.
2173, Session Laws of 1909, reads as
follows:
1.-THE driver or operator in charge of
any automobile or motor cycle on any
public road or highway outside tn e
limits of any town, village or city with
in the state, when signalled by the
driver of any vehicle propelled by horses
or other animal power, which signal
shall be given by raising the hand or in
such other manner as to attract atten-
ton, shall stop said automobile or motor
cycle until the vehicle propelled by said
animal power has passed; and if ap
preaching said vehicle from behind, the
driver or operator in charge of said au-
tomobile or motor cycle shall stop for
reasonable time, and the driver of said
animal propelled vehicle shall, as soon
as the condition of the road will permit,
turn to the right and allow at least one
half of the road on his left for the pass
age of said automobile
The penalty prescribed for the viola
! ton Of the foregoing is fine of net
less than $40 nor more than $50, and if
default is made in the payment of such
fine, such person or persons shall be
committed to the county Jail until such
fine is paid.

Two Birds at One Shot,

Wahpeton Gazette: When w. w.
Pease gets through cutting his five
hundred and fifty acres of grain, at
which he has already started, he will
have his blowing all done and n.de-
vote the rest Of the fall to threshing
for himself and neighbors. Mr.. Pease
hitches three big, gangs to his thresh-
ing engine and hooks his binder on be-
hind them and while the binder is cut
ting one swath of grain the plows are
turning over tn e stubble where the
binder ran the round before. From his
experience this year and last Mr.. Pease
finds that this method aof harvesting
and plowing is q great deal cheaper
than doing the work with horses and at
two operations and the best feature of
his method is that his blowing is all done
early which brings added revenue in the
next years crop. w e predict that
there will be others adopting this meth
cd in q short time.

n SLIGHT RAISE
in WARD COUNTY,
Structures in Ward County Raised About
/ twenty-five Per Cent by State Board
of Equalization, While Real Es-
Ss tate is Left Much Same as
n Last Year.
(Minot Optic, Aug. 81

cSE (Minot Optic, Aug. 81
! County Auditor Larson returned yes
terday from Bismarck, where he at
tended the meeting of the state board
Of equalization, which has been in ses-
sion there.
3, s Mr.. Larson says that so far there
has been no raise on the real estate as
sessment of the county though it is
|probable that there may be raise on
the entire state before long. On struc-
tures Ward county was raised about Is
per cent. The returns this year show
ed 100000 less value on structures
than last year which of course was in
error. In Montraille county the same
condition existed and the structures
there experienced a similar raise.
& The board will go after the personal
property assessment this week and also
The assessment of the corporations in
the various counties.
q Mr.. Larson says that the natural in
crease on real estate as returned by
the counties of the state shows over
$12, 900, 900 over that of lastyear. This
is due mainly to the increase on school
lands and lands that are proved up.
The increase is largely in the western
counties of the state. The personal
property increase is also in the western
part of the state, due to the increased
settlement in that section.
# The real estate returns from all coun-
ties in the state in 1908 show the total
assessed valuation at $14s, 172, ,749. The
returns from all counties this year show
sl55, O6l, ,99l, a natural increase of $12,-
900, 600. Last year the state board
raised the amount to $147, TAI, ,O87, while
this year a raise of $500, 900 will be
made.
On personal property tn e returns
from all counties last year showed the
assessed valuation at $l4, ,O7O,902. This
year it is $15, ,286, ,407, aniacrease 81, ,27O-
900. Last year the state board made
the raise to SAG, ,409, 900, on the account
Returned by the counties and this year
a raise of 81, ,ooo, 900 or over may be ex-
pected. ~ .-
From all sides it looks as though the
total raise over the returns from all
counties on real estate and personal
property Of the state would be about

Westminster Exults.

The following communication was re-
ceived too late for insertion in The Tri-
bune of last week:
The Westminster Sunday School held
picnic July 81, in the beautiful grove
on school section 16. The day was a
delightful one for the occasion. We
feel sure that no one went home hungry
or thirsty, as there were about thirty
freezers of ice cream and at least bar
rel of lemonade served free, besides the
bountiful dinner furnished by all. We
hope that no one indulged so freely as
to compel them to have medical treat
ment.
Boomerang! Boomerang! A-boom,
boom, boom!
The Westminster boys are the peo-
pie and they must have room.
Are they in it?
Well, l guess!
Did they win it?
Yes, yes, yes!
In the afternoon two games of ball
were played, the first between North
Star and Westminster. The North Star
did not have all their own players, as
some had important business in town,
and they had to substitute from Bow
bells, Lakeside and Westminster teams,
the score being 9 to Ia in favor of West
minister.
The second game was played by the
"Stiffs" and the "Scrubs. " How about
the challenge now? Do you think the
"Stiffs" can be bought as cheaply as
the "Scrubs" were thought to be at
the last game? The score was IL to 13
in favor of the "Scrubs.
After the games were over the win
ners' minds were 80 centered on the
ice cream which awaited them that the
girls were forgotten. ~

HUGH M'GiLLIVRAY
"A MAN OF AFFAIRS,


II: any other man than Hugh McGilli-

more than Is bushels per acre off the

Hugh says the harvest on the east
side of the lake has begun in earnest,
and they have there some crops that
will return fabulous yields, the size of
which he does not care to be responsible
for predicting, and what is now troubl-
ing Hugh and his neighbors is the great
distance they are from banks, making
the matter of depositing slightly incon-

and he has long been recognized as

Last month the sum of $GS6.1S was
spent upon the streets.
Divided by 81 .05 and invested in brick

Or charging property-owners two

In 9 months of a year it would lay
over 5000 square yards an average that

But this can never be done if the
