And Silver Leaf Did.

The Times man was sitting in the
grand stand at Glendale on July 4th
while the Oakes-F Forbes ball game was
on. Forbes was putting it to the
Oakes bunch numerically in the first
inning when Rex Saunders blurted out
to Chief of Police Wattles who was
parading on the inside of the ropes:
''Say, Charley, let US kids at Oakes
after Forbes gets through" And then
the next funny remark on the part of
this boy in band uniform came "Say,
Oakes, we'll have to put Silver Leaf
after you.'' And we take it that was
the start Of the game between Oakes
and Silver Leaf. The Silver Leaf boys
came last Sunday, just like professions
ais IN nice shining uniforms, and our
boys played hard but could not over
come the work Of the boys from the
Leaf. It took ten inning game to
settle the matter, however, the score
ending 10 to 9 in favor of the visitors.
Ankeny and Green were at the points

Those Comfort Bags.

The following letter taken from the
July number of the White Ribbon
Bulletin will be of interest to many of
our readers. AS will be remembered
the local w. G. T. u. collected four
teen dollars from our business men for
this cause, which was to provide a
comfort" bag for each boy on the
Battlesbip North Dakota. Besides
useful and necessary articles each bag
contained ''motherly" letter. The
Oakes union sent thirty-three of these
letters written by our loyal mothers.
The w. c. r. also contributed three
dollars and sent number of letters.
Mrs. L. B. Chamberlain of Lisbon, who
had charge of the work died suddenly
few days after packing and sending
the bags to their destination. Here is
her letter:
Dear Sisters: am sure you will re-
joice to know that at last the comfort
bags are on the way to the battleship
at Boston, and you will no longer hear
the call: "More letters; more bags;
more money!" as the six large boxes
containing $50 bags, complete in every
detail, disappeared from my sight. My
heart was lifted to God in thankfulness
for the loving, loyal sisters who have
made it possible, by SO nobly assisting
in word and deed, to complete the task.
My heart has been gladdened and cour-
age renewed by the sympathetic, kindly
cooperation, and the earnest effort,
without which I fear I would often
have become weary in well doing. ;"
Your reward, dear ones, will come in
that great day when around the
Faith cr's throne will be gathered
mothers boys saved through your min
istrations unto them. Mrs. Thatcher
says but few are aware of the large
number of conversions through this
work. ! could not wait until conven-
tion time to express my gratitude to all
who have so patiently borne with my
persistency, and repeated demands so
many months. As to the future work
will tell you later on, after we have all
taken good long breath. Yours
gratefully.

All entries must be made and exhibit

The quantity of each sample Of
grain sent should not be less than one
half the size of the ordinary bundle OF
grain and should be carefully tied 50
as to prevent it getting damaged.
There should be full bundle of fax,
alfalfa and clover.
Those grains and grasses should be
carefully packed in large bexes, with
sufficient openings to permit plenty of
air to circulate through, SO as to pre-
vent the grain from becoming heated
or mold while in transit.
The larger the variety, the more
value is attached to it. Extreme care
should be used in selecting, arranging
and packing each exhibit.
The department will simply take the
exhibit from the boxes and display it,
concealing from the judges the names
of the contestants and the counties in
which the exhibit was gathered.
It may prove advantageous to the
exhibitor to have the wheat. oats,
barley, rye. speltz and other grains
stripped. This will make the straw
brighter and more attractive. Have
each bundle securely tied with chord.
All grains and grasses should be
shipped by express, 30 as to prevent
the exhibit being kept in the boxes too
long, and thus avoid it having q moldy
appearance. The department will pay
express charges. Consign all ship
ments to w. C. GILBREATH,

BOAT LAUNCHED
IN BARE CREEK
Home Made Graft Slides Into
the Rivers Bosom With
out Ceremony.
The Young Builder Has Spent
Much Time and Money
in Its Construction.

Alex. Alexanderson has launched his
boat. 1t was done last week without
any formal ceremony or the breaking of
even an Oakes pop bottle over its bow.
With the aid of one Of the nearby farm
ers and his team the "big ark" was
skided into the waters of Bare Creek,
just west of the railway bridge and
near the junction of the creek with the
main stream, the Jim river.
Alex. has put a remarkable amount
of time and money on the construction
of this wonderful craft. It is some
thing like four years since the keelwas
laid on the vacant lots south of the
Mccartney residence. Before it got
too heavy to be moved it vas taken to
the place on the river bottom where
the past week it was pushed into the
water. There the young man built a
shanty and summer and winter has put
about all his time on it's construction.
1t is said that the young man has over
s.. 600 invested in the enterprise, be-
sides all his time with the exception of
the months he may have worked out in
order to get more money to put into
this pet scheme.
Recently he had a wire fence built
around the lark" and put up notice
that no trespassing would be allowed.
Some Of the boys tbroke the fence''
the other day and he became very ang-
ry and wanted them to understand that
if they desired to investigate inside of
the government corral" it would just
cost them fifty cents piece.
The young man has given it out that
he is going to run the boat on the Jim
river fer pleasure seekers. The dimen-
sicns are 18x70 feet on the deck, and
the propellers wili be worked by a
large engine, which has been on the
ground for some time. The builder is
certainly faithful to his work, and il
be Is not rewarded by some recompense
for all his labor and trouble, he is to be
pitied. He certainly deserves credit
for his pluck and perseverance.

PASSES AWAY.
Mrs. ]. W. Pickard succumbs After
Long Illness.

Mrs. ]. w. Pickard passed to rest at
her home in this city at five O'Clock
Monday morning, July 1lth.
She had been in feeble health for the
past six years, her ailment being in the
form of softening of the brain. All the
time she appeared to be getting little
worse, and one year ago became per-
fectly helpless. The poor woman was
harmless, and while some friends
thought it best to send her to the hos
pital at jamestown, the faithful hus-
band could not do it, and almost alone
he has nursed her through her years of
sickness. In speaking Of it the hus-
band said ''she has been true and
faithful wife to me. and couldn't bear
to see her taken to the asylum" For
some time back she did not even have
the power of speech.
The funeral was held yesterday
afternoon from the M. E. church, Rev.
B. A. Burns preaching the sermon. The
remains were laid to rest in Oakes
cemetery.
Matilda Mearns, the name by which
she was known in her maidenhood DAYS,
was native Of Prince Edward Island,
Nova Scotia, where she was born "a
years ago last month. There she was
reared and educated and in June, 1859,
was united in marriage to j. w. Pick
ard, who had come from England with
his parents when two and one
half years old and settled there. Mr..
Pickard followed the trade of harness
maker until he came west 26 years ago
and settled at Columbia, Dakota. There
he ran hotel for seven years, or un-
til he came to Dickey county and filed
on homestead seven miles south OF
the city. There he lived with his wife
until eight years ago, when her failing
health caused him to sell his. farm, the
proceeds Of which he invested in home
in this city. Both were loyal adherents
Of the Methodist Episcopal church,
having joined the same church before
marriage.
Mr., Pickard has been loyal to his
helpmate, and his devotedness through
all the years of her sad illness is cause
for admiration among his many friends.
There were no? children.

sow FODDER CORN.
Farmers Should TAXI Action to Hold
Their Cattle.

the 500 Line, has sent out the follow
ing letter to line agents:
The unfortunate crop conditions, with
resultant shortage Of feed, has created
a tendency among farmers to sell a
large amount of young live stock which
ordinarily they would hold until it was
of proper marketable age. The results
of doing this will be very bad and it
should be discouraged and stopped as
far as possible. Farmers should make
extraordinary Efforts to carry such
stock until the middle of August, when
fodder corn will be available. l quote:
Fodder corn is valuable forage. 1t
permits of early or late planting and is
harvested before the general corn crop
is mature. Large yields of dry forage
or of silage are obtained, which for
cattle, sheep, young stock, or even
horses, is an excellent feed. For milch
cows it is second only to alfalfa and
clover. Much could be stated about
this valuable crop. but the purpose is
merely to advise farmers to SOW corn
thickly for the fodder, thus tiding over
the hay shortage period and save the
live stock.
1.-The seed is planted in drills about
three feet six inches apart. From one
bushel, fifty-six pounds, to sixty
pounds are sown to the acre. When a
two horse corn planter is not to be had
a grain drill (not a broad seed-caster)
will do the work satisfactorily. Cover
the seed cups of the drill with piece
of wood or tin so as to leave the open
tubes the proper distance apart for the
rows. Open the seed cups wide and
test the planting. The seeds should be
about two inches apart. If the seed
cups do not open wide enough to per-
nit sowing at least one bushel to the
acre, readjust the closed ones so as to
leave two adjacent cups open, thus
planting double rows or drills (6 to 8
inches apart) and about forty-two
inches, on center. apart. The seed in
the double rows should be from three
to four inches apart, to SOW the de-
sired amount to the acre.
The experiment station in 1900 planted
fodder corn July l2th and harvested in
the tall a good tonnage Of excellent
fodder. The stalks trew slender and
about five feet high When fed the
animals left no stubs. Of stake in the
managers. I'D
Please take this matter up with mer'
chants, bankers, farmers and others
at your station with view to accom-.
plishing as much as possible along
these lines and preventing the deplor.
able results which will surely follow
the selling by our farmers of their
young live stock before the proper
time.
WHATEVER IS DONE ALONG THESE LINES
MUST BE DONE AT ONCE
The state authorities are working
along these same lines and we will be
glad to cooperate if we can be of fur.
ther assistance.
After you have had sufficient time to
go into the matter intelligently please
write me what you develop regarding
prospects, etc., referring to this letter.

Some improvements.

Some good substantial residences are
being built in Oakes this year.
About the finest is the new home OF
Mr.. and Mrs. @. P. Emmons on the
old j. T. Scott corner on Second
street. Mr.. Emmons is sparing no
expense in making this one of the most
modern and complete residences in the
city. The dimensions are 28x44 feet,
full basement, which is divided in three
compartments. The rooms upstairs
are well arranged and each. floor is be
ing laid in hard maple wood with finish
ing in birch. Each Of the sleeping
rooms is supplied with layatory with
, hot and cold water. A fine hot water
plant is. being installed by Plumber
Bunker. For the present Mr.. Emmons
will have his own lighting system, but
the building is all wired for electricity
and up-to-the-minute in every partic-
ular.
Besides putting up new residence
the old builcing has been moved across
the alley and been fixed up SO you'd
hardly recognize it. Orry says it has
just stood him $l,05O to put the old
residence in good shape.
E. Moore is putting up a fine
modern family residence on his lots on
North Second street. The dimensions
are 2x38, two stories with good base
ment. This place is now ready fo:
the plasterers and when completed will
make q splendid home with all con-
veniences.
"A. ]. Bunker has about completed
for himself and wife a commodious
home on North Fourth street. It is
two stories with good basement
and will be equipped throughout in a
modern way. ''Dell" is putting in
about the best set of fixtures there is
to be found in the city.
The Dr.. Christensen home on South
Fifth street is another nice addition
to the fine residences Of that
portion Of the city. It is being modern
ly fitted throughout and is well planned
for peatness and convenience.
Tbeo. Kartes has let the contract to
Ritterbush & Son for a modern home
on his lots just east Of Mr.. Keating' 8.
The contract price, exclusive of heat
ing and plumbing, will be $2,100.
Murray Bros. are also putting in a
neat residence on Second street south
Of the 500 track.
Guy D. Smith of Cogswell has put in
q neat residence just opposite the
creamery in west Oakes. and just west
ofAthat Martin Rossmon has about COM
