ARE RAISING
some GOOD BEEF

w. H. Niles of the Niles ranch
near Tappan, Kidder county, is at his
home at Fergus Falls, Mimi, on &C.
count of serious illness in his family.
Speaking of the outlook, he referred
particularly to the hay harvest. He
says the country about his ranch is
very dry and that he has but 600 tons
of hay, where he usually has 1900.
The alfalfa on the lake bottom at
their ranch, which has given North
Dakota so much advertising, fell short
this year. The first part of the season
the cattle did finely and then they did
not do so we'll for a month, but are
picking up again as there have been
some good rains which have thor
oughly wetted the ground. They have
a lot of big four-year-old steers which
they will ship to Chicago, and expect
to get more for them than they did
last year for the same class Of stock.
They feed an immense amount Of
grain and consequently raise some
very good beef.

HOW DAKOTA
TOWNS GROW

Napoleon Homestead: The writer
visited Wishek and Ashley on tele-
phone business this week. This was
our first visit to Ashley for the past
eight years and since the remarka Bile
growth of that town we felt ourselves
almost entire strangers here. Twenty
two years ago we made weekly visits
there in the capacity Of mail carriers
from here to that place and then knew
nearly everyone in the county. 1t is
different now. About the only familiar
faces of those days we saw there this
week who were in Ashley county 20
years ago were J. II. Wishek, Herbert
Lartmer, Fred Heiss, Sheriff Hidden
brandt and "SkiddOo" Nelson. We
noticed that the residence of Clare
Johnson, the little drug store building
of J. A. BjOrnson and the meat market
building put up by Lamotte Miles
are still standing, the two last build
ingS now being occupied as telephone
Offices of the Dakota Central and the
Farmers Union. Ashley is now a
town of about 900 people and contains
many pretty homes. We were pleased
to see the many trees growing there,
tn width Of the streets and avenues,
the numerous grain elevators and the
apparent prosperity and contentment
of its enterprising citizens. Among
other things, the town has an excel.
lent school building-like the one at
Wishek-and one we would be proud
of at Napoleon. The county superin-
tcndent of schools, Mr.. e. r. Clyde,
is wideawake school officer and is
taking a great interest in the extern
sion and advancement of Mcintosh
county schools. J. G. Anderson Of
this place is rebuilding and improving
the telephone system of the town. We
were told that some wheat bad been
thrsher in that vicinity that averaged
twenty bushels per acre and that the
average for the locality would be
about eight or ten bushels per acre.
