COB PIPE SAVES LIFE
{ BY United Press.l

NORWICH, n. Y, July 13.-The
fact that he is, or was, smoker,
has saved the life of George Elk
cell, of Hubbardsvill. He was gored
slightly by a COW, and lockjaw
developed.
When his jaws set rigidly he was
smoking his cob pipe. The teeth
could not shut together because of
the pipe stem. Through the quar-
ter inch wide opening thus left he
is taking nourishment.

OAKEs STATE HIGH SCHOOL

The end of the school year is draw
ing near and the senior class is busy
with the finishing touches to their part
of the closing program.
The pupils of the several grades will
welcome you to see their work. The
arithmetic and geography classes of
the grades are doing some very excel
lent work.
-
Do not forget the declamatory con-
test at the Academy of Music Friday
evening. This is the school contest to
determine who will be the lucky one to
go to Grand Forks to the state contest
to be held there the 21st of May. This
will be high-class entertainment and
one the audience will thoroughly enjoy.
Arbor day has passed and the num-
Der of trees set out are to be thought
about. There are a number of quite
thrifty trees on the school park now
and it will pay TO get more there and
when they are there it will pay to take
good care of them. Oakes has a good
school ground and a; finely located as it
is possible to get one in any city. In
fact the central location of the school
grounds makes it one of the best that
can be securel. The chance for growth
of the city in every direction and still
keep in easy distance of the school is
ideal.
The state examinations will begin in
about three weeks and the pupils all
feel like witness before he appears
before the court to give testimony in a
case. They all feel that they are quite
familiar with the story that they think
should be told but under the question
ing of the attorney some things are
likely to be asked for that were not
looked for and they will be asked in
such a way that it seems that the
known facts were, or are not, wanted.
Most of the witnesses in the coming
trial feel that they have the evidence
well in hand and that they will give
winning testimony. Witnesses always

JOHN HUR1Y MARRIED
Takes as His Bride Popular STEM
ographer of Aberdeen.


The people of Forman gave John
Hurry and his bride a nice reception
last Friday night at the lodge hall.
The young couple had been married on
April Goth in St. Paul and were spend
ing short time at the home of the
groom in Forman on their way to Glas-
gov, Montana, where Mr.. Hurry is EN-
gagged in the practice of law.
The bride was one of the most ac-
complished stenographers in this state.
She has been connected with the land
offices in Bismarck and Minot, but
more recently was in the office of the
internal revenue collector at Aberdeen,
S. D. The groom is we'll known in
this part of the state. For some years
he was court stenographer of this ju-
dicia' district and so served for a
number of years as private secretary
to Ex-Congressman Marshall. After
finishing course in law he went to
Minot and became partner in the
firm of LeSueur, Bradford & Hurry.

Creamery Figures.

G. F. Flint, state dairy commissioner,
was in Hample last week inspecting the
Hample creamery. He expressed him
self as we'll pleased with the manage
ment of the Hample creamery, stating
that the product of this creamery
ranked third in quality of product of all
North Dakota creameries, and also ex-
pressing the idea that with more cows
that he thought that this rating would
be better even than this. He states
that the patrons of this creamery should
make heroic effort to increase the
number of cows as the plant could
easily take care of ten times the guam
tity of cream now handled at no greater
operating expense than at present. AS
an example of what could be done he
took the report of Mr.. S. w. Fordyce
for the last month. Mr.. Foroyce is
milking only five cows and during the
last month has brought 4O7 pounds of
cream to the creamery. This tested
3Oa per cent or 124.13 pounds of butter
fat which, at the price paid &c amounts
to $N.3O or an average of s5.46 per COW.
The price paid for s6ufter fat would
have greatly exceeded this if the guam
tity of cream hauled to the creamery
had been sufficient to keep the operat-
ing expense down to the lowest limit.
in fact would have brought the receipts
per cow up to fully $3.50. Three years
since the creamery at this place was
paying more for butter fat than any
other creamery in North Dakota but
owing to the limited quantity of cream
that has been handled in the last year
the price paid the patrons for butter fat
has steadily fallen notwithstanding the
fact that the quality of the butter pro-
duced has been the best that the cream
cry has ever turned out.-Crete Press.

PROTEST AGAINST
UNFAIR RATES
Mass Meeting to Be Held at
LaMoure to Investigate
Grain Rates.
State Railroad Commissioners
and Road representatives
Invited to Attend.

Bismarck, April 2Oth.-A mass meet
ing will be held at LaMoure in the near
future to which the railroad COM
missioners of the state. of North Da-
kota and representatives of the various
railroads interested will be invited, at
which time vigorous protest against
the present discriminatory rates will be
voiced. Grain growers in Sargent,
LaMoure, Dickey, Ransom and Rich
land counties are now paying two cents
per bushel more to get their grain to
the terminals at Duluth, Minneapolis
and st. Paul than is demanded of the
more fortunately situated counties
north of the main line of the Northern
Pacific about the same distance from
terminals. All of the counties men,
toned have competing railroads but
there is evidently an understanding
regarding the rates that will be charged.
AS all of the grain shipped from these
counties to the terminals must pass
through Minnesota it is not within the
province of the state commissioners to
take action but it has been suggested
by the residents of the affected country
that they may be able to bring it to
the attention of the interstate COM
mission and through them to get some
favorable action. There was a bill
presented and passed in the house, but
killed in the senate, last winter which
would have provided for this trouble,
but unfortunately for the lower tier of
counties the senators did not see fit to
give it their approval. The date for
the mass meeting has not been set as
yet but will be made public within the
course offs few days. It is the in
tention of the people who are pushing
the movement to give both parties m
opportunity to present their side of
the case.

WILLIAM WAITE.
Father of Waite Brothers Is Buried
at Glendale.
Glendale Leader.

Ellendale Leader.
Mr.. William Waite was born at
Prescott County of GlenGarg in the
Province of Quebec, Jan. 1926. Died
at San Diego, CAL, April Is, 1909 aged
SO years.
He spent his early life on farm.
In 1851 he moved to Drayton, Marys-
borough township. Ontario, where he
continued the vocation of farming
that he learned in early life. In 1853
he YVES married to Elizabeth Butter
worth; to this union was born five sons
and three daughters.
In this early day Marysborough was
almost virgin forest, but with youth
full courage and energy he and his
faithful wife fought together the
trials and privations of early pioneer
life. surmounting every difficulty and
succeeded in carving out of this wilder
ness a comfortable home for them
selves and their large family.
In 1895 his devoted wife passed to
that bourne from whence no traveller
returns. In 1896 he came to North
Dakota and made his home until about
three years ago when he went to Cali
fornia.
When young man he united with
the Wesleyan M. E. church and re-
mained member of that church until
April 13, 1902. True to his conviction
he was buried with his Lord in baptism
and became member of the Christian
in Glendale and remained faithful
and consistent member until his
death.
Mr.. Waite was we'll known and
highly respected being of deep religious
nature. 1t was always his practice as
we'll as his purpose to attend divine
service every Lords day.
He leaves to mourn his loss five sons
and three daughters all of whom are
living in the vicinity of Guelph except
one son living in Canada and one
daughter living in Michigan, 2s grand
chlloren ana seven great grandchil-
dren.
While death in any home is extremely
sad, let those who remain be comforted
by the one thought that the same
wise Creator who has permitted our
friend and brother to fulfill the allotted
three score years and ten, will also
guard their lives with unerring tender
ness, until that time when they too,
shall be called to join their loved ones
in that higher and more noble realm,
where sorrow never comes, and peace
reigns over all.

Evangelist Sunday.

olily SUNDAY, formerly famous as q
baseball player, is now doing service as
an evangelist. Considerable fault has
been found with Mr.. Sunday because of

Mr.. Sunday without hearing him, and it

extract from one of his sermons, and

REPRESENTATION.

Procrastination is breeder of fur
ry. The woman who does thing
when she first thinks of it will never
pass her life in deadly scramble
not to be found wanting.
A procrastinating mother is almost
as great stirrer up of family trou-
BILE as the slovenly mother; indeed,
the two traits are almost inseparable
Johnny is never disgraced by huge
hole in his knee at school If his
mother does not postpone the family
mending.
Late rising is a sure cause of the
f1urried housekeeper. In this day of
many demands upon ones time, an
hour or two wasted in the morning
can never be caught. 1t may be hor-
ribly disagreeable to get oneself out
of bed at an early hour. or, worse
yet, see that the family is stirred up
in time for breakfast, but it is not
half so disagreeable to feel as If
pursued by furries all the rest of the
day.
That sense OF more to do than
there is time to do it in" is respon-
sible for many a broken-down house
keeper. Extra time gained in the
morning defrauds the nerve special
list and promotes family peace.-New
Haven Register.

OUR RAT BILL.
1t Is $46o,ooo,ooo Year in This coun-
try Alone.

The bill of damages which civiliza-
ton holds against the rodent foots
up into tremendous figures. Accord
ing to the experts of the bureau of
biological survey OF the Department
CT Agriculture Uncle Sam alone has
to pay $16O, 100000 every yer on ac-
count Of property damages inflicted
by the pest John Bull and the Kais-
ser between them have to fork over
$3.50 100000.
The rat bin of the world would
reach into the billions, says Success.
Sir James Crichton- Browne, president
of a. recently formed international
union of scientific organizations work
ing together for the determination
of rats, declared that every rat in
the United States costs the citizens
at least two cents day for its keep.
In England a rat costs from one
half cent to five cents daily. The
British India rat is the most expensive.
the innumerable swarning millions OF
the pests consumes on an average
three cents daily.
If you add to the cost of the board
and lodging of rats the expense of
maintaining quarantine operations
against them and of fighting the dis
eases spread by them the average
specimen of the rodent tribe preying
on civilized nations may be said to
cost us from seven to ten cents
day.
