AFTER The KNOCKER
Mott Pioneer Says Loyal Citizens
Should Boost by Taking
Hons Paper.

Mott Pioneer Press: When the edi-
tor OF the Mott Pioneer Press located
in Mott he had no idea whatever of
attempting to publish a paper which
would at all compare with city papers.
We intend only to publish country
weekly paper as good as the facilities
and the enterprises Of the town would
afford and support. In this we have
been successful The editor under
stands some chronics are dissatisfied
with The Press and are inclined to do
some knocking, stating 1t does not
get all the news, etc. 1t is mighty
disloya4 to your town to knock the
home paper or any other home in
dustry. It is mighty disloyal to your
town to not subscribe for the home
paper. 1t is mighty disloyal to the
paper not to pay for It after you have
subscribed, and it is downright mean
ness to knock the paper while still
owing one or two years subscription
and If these knockers were traced up
1T would be found that most of them
belong to the latter class. II you want
to knock, please call and pay UP what
you owe and then you have our con-
sent to get your little hatchet and
go to work as persistently as you
please. We believe The Press will
compare favorably with other weekly
papers Of this state, and while we
would, OF course, like the favorable
comment OF every citizen OF Mott and
vicinity, we don't care a continental
about the brsyings of the knockers.
We consider the cource from which
it comes, and so do others.

ABANDONS
STARVING TOTS
JOHN FoREY OF GRAND FORKS
DISAPPEARED FROM HOME
A WEEK A0o--MoTHE
IN OREGON.

Grand Forks, N. D., Feb. 23.--W'nere
is John Forey, the man who disap-
peared from his home, 1923 North
Fourth street, week ago today, leav-
ing threa hungry little children alone
in the cold house without food or
fuel, and has not been heard from
since.
On last Tuesday Forey left nome
as usual without saying anything to
his little ones abouc not returning.
When night came on they vainly
awaited the return of their father,
whom they hoped would bring food
and something to keep them warm.
All night long the children waited,
and the father failed to pu in an APP
pearanee. Next morning they became
frightened, and instead of letting the
neighbors know something about what
had occurred, they closed up part
Of the house and kept one room some
what warm by burning up articles OF
furniture.
Neiahbors investigate.
However, the neighbors noticed that
there was no life about the house, and
when they investigated the circum-
stances they found the three little
children lowering over cold stove,
almost starved to death. The little
tots then told of the disappearance
of their father, and the police were
made aware OF the circumstances.
Food was brought to them by the
kind neighbors, and they were fur
nished with enough fuel to supply
them until some definite action is
taken in their case. A good part of
the furniture with which the home
was meagerly supplied was burned in
the stove before the r1eighbors learn
ed of the circumstances, and was all
that kept the children from freezing
to death for a couple Of days.
Their mother went to Oregon last
fall, where she was to spend the win
ter and the little ones were left to
the care Of the father, who has rnys-
teriously disappeared. Some people
advance, the theory that the man was
drowned, or came to his death in some
manner, while others are Of the opin-
ion that he has just gone away and
left them destitute.
Therefora the question Of most vital
interest just now is, where is he?
Forey has resided in Grand Forks
for several years, and 1t is said he has
two older sons who are engaged in
farming in western Canada. He mas
been employed at odd jobs about town
during the past winter and for
while he drove one OF FNuller's drays.
He is about Ave feet and nine inches
In height and wears reddish brown
moustache.

In the past thirty years, from time

been experimenting somewhat with
clover, but in the early stages they
were for the most part unsuccessful.
1t is only in comparatively recent
years that the growers have been re-
,warded by success, and with their sue
cess those farmers who have not tried
the raising Of the product, want In
formation on the subject. 1t is to
supply this information that the Red
