The Fruit Industry On the Westdrn Slope
and Its Future Prospect.

While the fruit industry OF the
western slope is becoming one
of the best money makers for the
orchardist which has been dem
onstrated in the crop which has
been gathered the past year.
looking back seven or eight years
ago when all of our crops were
hauled to Delta in wagons and
shipped from there. Suppose
this would have to be done now.
Then let us look ahead to the
next seven or eight years with so
many young orchards coming
into bearing every year. then look
at the vast number of acres being
set out to fruit each year. There
will be more acres set to orchard
on the western slope next spring
than has ever been set in one
year since the fruit industry be
gun. An agent for one of the
largest nursery companys in the
west told me that he had been
selling trees in Delta county ever
since they began to set them and
never had seen the time that he
was obliged to turn down an or
der for apple trees, but could
have taken orders for more
than four hundred acres in Delta
county. So we can see what may
be possible in few years. On a
recent trip to the Surface Creek
country where they are making
preparations to plant out large
tracts of land to orchards and cut
it up in small tracts and sell it off,
one party told me that he and
others would set two hundred
acres next spring. Orchards are
being set in this way all over the
western slope. To show you that
the nursery companys see the
future possibilities of the western
slope and wish to make prepara-
tions for it and moving as they
do that our orchards are, in a
measure free from any scale or
other dangerous insects or disease.
the writer and his son have re-
ceived orders for something like
eight hundred thousand clons of
our best commercial apples. such
as Rome Beauty. Jonathan. Gano,
Winesap. Wagner and Grimes
Golden. So you can multiply
this by four and then you can see
the number OF trees this will
make. and a large number of
these will come back to the
western slope to be planted.
Trees will be planted in The val
ley that were grown from cions
we sent out from here last winter.
AS there are goodly number of
eastern people buying land in the
county at this time and many of
them will plant out orchards next
spring and in order to get the
best results with young trees the
ground should be plowed deep
and we'll pulverized and leveled
up IN the low places and made so
as to le: the waste water drain off.
| never have believed in setting
an orchard IN new land until it
has been in some crop for at least
one year which enables one to
cultivate the wild nature out of
the land. Still it is possible to
start young trees on new land.
On some OF the mesas in some
parts OF the country where old
alfalfa fields have been broken
up they have lost scarcely a tree,
SO it pays to have the land in the
right condition to get success.

Amendment as Member of North
Dakota Game and Fish Commission
Ends Up Satisfactorily to All Con-
cerned.

Grand Forks, April 14.-Thomas
Griffith yesterday turned over to
Thomas Griffiths the latter's commits
sion as a member of the North Da-
kota game and fish commission
which had been incorrectly addressed
and mailed to Mr.. Griffith. Mr.. Crit
fiths was able to dictate his terms as
a result of a mistake made by an ex-
press deliveryman. A fine moose head
had been expressed to Mr.. Griffith
The deliveryman delivered the head
by mistake at Mr.. Griffith's store.
Sunday evening when Mr.. Griffiths
returned to the store and saw the
moose head he rejoiced. Here was
chance to bring Mr.. Griffith to
time. Mr.. Griffiths had about made
up his mind to give up a box of Gig
ars. He called up Mr.. Griffith and told
him that if he brought the commits
delivered at his place. 1t was MT
Griffith's turn to get anxious. He
declared that the moose head belong"
ed to him. After he had some fun
with Mr.. Griffith, Mr.. Grifiths told
hi mthat If he brought the commits
sion and all the correspondence UP
he could have the moose head, al
though Mr.. Griffiths said he was not
any too anxious to make the ex-
change. Mr.. Griffith surrendered on
the terms of the victor.

One of the first acts Of the govern

A LOST MINE.
The Tragic Legend That 10 Associates
With Bald Mountain.

The Traaie Legend That 10 Associated
With Bald Mountain.
The legend Of lost mine has given
to Bald mountain, in Placer county,
Colo. q fascinating interest for pros:
pectors. Tradition Is that early IN the
fifties Of the last century three men
disappeared from an immigrant party
going over the old Gap trail. Search
for them was without avail, and they
were finally reported dead by the
searchers. r.
Where or how they wintered no one
knows, but the following spring, rag
ped. shoeless and demoralized, they
fled into Michigan Bluff. Their blan-
kets were converted into sacks, and
with them they brought gold dust to
the amount of $4,000 or $4,000.
Spending but single night within
the confines Of civilization and giving
no information as to the, location Of
their large claim, they were followed
on their return trip, and few weeks
later their murdered bodies were found
in one Of the dreary canyons that scar
the face Of the desolate peak. :, ~,
Since then many man has sought
this lost mine, but apparently it's i'm
munity is as certain as that Of the.
treasure Of Captain Kidd.-Phtladel-
phia North American. o.. ~ .fyg%+s3

Fargo, April 14.-"Within a month

Nh department is not acting on the

a later report from the Office of the

the department of public instruction
has been completed and the findings
are in the main similar to those of
the legislative committee. Should
the same results be found in the Of

suit will be started against that off,
cial, too.
"The suit against Mr.. Stockwell
will be for an accounting and to de-

Telegraphic News OF the State
". c. CARLINE QUESTION
Northern Pacific Proposes to Estab-
Hsh Gasoline Motor Service Be-
tween City and New Depot-Mayor
Opposes Building Second Street
Car Line.

Valley City, April 14.-The prob
lem of transporting passengers and
baggage to and from the Northern
Pacific station on the high line and
the city, is said to be absorbing the
attention of the officials of the road
in connection with tle running of the
through trains over the new viaduct
on May 20.
It is proposed to cut the Gordian
knot by running a "hurry-up" train
over the gravel pit spur and up a
track built for the purpose to the
new station. 1t is proposed to- i'm
port gasoline motor which can
clim ba hill like an electric engine.
The road would maintain ticket Of
flee down town and sell all Valley
City tickets from it and all passen-
gers and baggage would be delivered
down town. This would give the
people of the city an excellent service
and mead off any injunctions.
Another proposition is that the Val
ley City Street Car company which
recently changed hands or a majority
of the stock did, be extended to the
new station for passenger service. 1t
is proposed to extend the line west on
Front street an Eighth avenue and
north over that avenue to the city
limits and then due north to the new
station.
1t seems reasonably certain that
the Northern Pacific is working on a
power proposition TO rthe transporta-
ton of passengers and baggage free
or at nominal cost. r.
Mayor Cowell is fthe opinion that
the Northern Pacific will not be al
lowed to put in a second car service
to the new station. superintendent
Craver was in the city and threshed
the matter all over with Mayor Cow
ell. The mayor says THAT he is op'
posed to the building of any car line

Settling Big deal
Clark-Nlassingham Land and Stock
Deal to Be Aired in the Courts
1900 Acres of Land and 500
Head of blooded stock Included In
Near Transfer.

Grand Forks, April 14.-Judge Guy
C. H. Corliss is engaged today In
making the final settlement in the M.
A. Clark VS.. C. F. Massingham case,
an action involving the transfer OF
1900 acres of Morton and Oliver
county lands, as well as the transfer
of about 900 head of blooded stock.
This case is one that involved the
forfeiture of contract of sale. The
contract called for the sale of the
property in question by Massingham
to Clark, but the former declared the
contract forfeited on the ground that
Clark had failed to make a certain
payment.
In consequence of this action, suit
was commenced to compel the carry
ing out of this contract, and after
several whirls in the federal court, an
order was issued by Judge Amidon
directing that the contract be execut-
ed as drawn up.
, The land and stock in question is
sold for the sum of $225,O00 under
the terms of the contract. Judge
Corliss appeared as attorney for Mr..
Clark.

The ring was finally cleared and
Referee Ed. Smith called the princi-
pals to the center of the ring and
gave them their final instructions. It
was II o'clock before them match be-
gan. Mahmout and his $500 pair of
bare feet were greeted with cheers
and laughter.
For the first three minutes the two
men bulled it about the ring without
either getting a hold. Finally after
three minutes of wrestling Gotch Sc
cured a hold on Mahmout's leg and
threw him to the mat.
The American champion went after
the foreigner with the creates vim and
the Bulgarian was responding with ali
his strength of his magnificent phis-
ique but he could not break Gotch's
hold. Mahmout bridged and used ev-
cry artifice in his repertoire to fore.
stall the fall that appeared to be ap.
preaching. ~: :"
Gotch gradually forced his oppon-
ent's shoulders to the mat. 1t was
a magnificent test of strength. The
champion, however, cheered on by the
shouts of thousands of his country
men, finally secured a chotch an a
half Nelson and Referee Smith gave
him the fall in eight minutes. Nah
mout's shoulders were pinned to the
mat for the first time since he has
been in this country.
The crowd yelled for several min
utes after the fall. The sudden end
ing of the first bout surprised the
spectators who expected the much
touted foreigner to give the champion
a Titan struggle.
Gotch and Mahmout started the
second fall at 1929 p. m. After
a little fiddling in the middle of the
ring, the men mixed and Mahmout
was successful in getting Gotch down
on the mat. Following minute of
sharp work, Gotch wiggled out of
the Turks hold, and assumed the
aggressive. Gotch tried repeatedly
for the deadly toe hold, but Mahmout
fought harder than before, and the
man was unable to secure it. Gotch
secured a bare lock on Mahmout,
but the men wriggled of the mat.
Referee Smith called them in the
center of the ring. Mahmout allowed
Gotch his old hold. Gotch got a
crotch and half Nelson, but Mahmout
wriggled out The struggle waxed,
fast and furious, with Mahmout on
the defensive all the time. Gotch
secured the same hold that won the
first fall for him-as crotch and half
Nelson. &Mahmout, realizing the dan
ger into which he was being maneuv-
cred, fought to break his opponents
hold, but It was of no avail. Despite
the Turks imense strength and abil-
ity, he was pinned to the mat for the
final fall in minutes, 1 seconds.
The semi-wind up between Henry

ed a draw after 20 minutes Of wrest-
ling, in which neither man gained
