BURKE COUNTY IS
NOW ORGANIZED
Taken From the Northwest Corner
Of Ward County Which Was
Divided IN Three

The Supreme court decision
makes three counties out of old
Ward. At the last election the
Mountrail county proposition car
ried but the proposed Renville and
Burke counties went to court for
a decision. The Renville propo-
sition was knocked out. 1t was to
have been organized from the
northeast corner of Ward. Bow
bells will probably be the county,
seat of the new county while Mo-
hall expected to be named as coun-
ty seat of Renville.
There will be a fight in Noun.
trail, the other county cut out of
Ward, for the county seat. It is
said the 500 railroad may become
strong factor in the fight and the
honors moved from Stanley to
Palermo. The prospects Of the
construction of road near Plaza
to provide adequate transportation
facilities for the Fort .Berthold In
dian reservation district and run
ming northward into the central
part Of the county being such that
the establishment of new towns in
the most central portion of the
county seems certain. Rival sur
veying crews of the 500 and the
Great Northern are said to be at
work in the Plaza district, both
companies having intentions of
tapping the big Fort Berthold
country, which will soon be opened
to settlement.

Doing; Good WORK.

On the 10th the creamery had
been opened only ten days and up
to that time 500 pounds of butter
had been churned with Is farmers
as patrons. If this average keeps
up, and it certainly will not de-
crease, the amount of butter churn-
ed during the first month will be
about 24OO pounds. The farmers
have been getting q cents a pound
for their butter which will give
them pretty good income during
the year.
