Gus Albertson, who last week
took a Big Four gas tractor out
to his farm near Coteau, tells US
that he is having no trouble at
all in operating the thing. He
says he will use the tractor
in threshing until the season
is over, and will then do some
plowing. He intends to plow the
thistles down about two feet
wherever he does any work, and
guarantees to anyone giving him
a Job Of turning over stubb1e
that no thistles will grow in the
field for a long time after the
blowing in done.

The men who are now wanted
for both robberies are described
as follows: One man is tall and
thin. He has a peculiar defect
of the eyes which makes him ap-
pear cross-eyed. The other man
is short and dark and appears to
be an italian. His hands are un-
usually fine and soft. This man
appeared at the First National
Bank at Bowbells last week and
asked for work. At that time
his hands were noted especially
and when the fact was brought
to his attention that he could do
no farm or hard word with such
hands he put them into his pock-
cts and left the bank. 1t is be-
lieved that the yeggs had inten-
tions on the bank at Bowbells and
they were probably getting the
layout of the land. Later they
got suspicious and left town.

HELD UP ON MAIN
STREET IN BOWBELLS
-
Miss Elmyra Porter is Sceized
by Ruffian Saturday Night
and Relieved of Money

Miss Elmyra Porter, daughter,
of Mr.. and Mrs. G. I. Porter,
who during the absence of her
parents is conducting the Palace
hotel in this city, Saturday even
ing was held up by some ruffian
and robbed Of some money while
walking on main street. The af~
fair took place at a little after
nine o'clock, and on account of
Miss Porter's fainting at the
time and not coming to con-
ciousness for some time, the cul-
prit was able to make his escape.
In an interview with The Tribune
Miss Porter gave us the follow
ing story:
''While paying a farmer for
some potatoes in front Of our
hotel noticed a man wearing a
canvass coat standing at the rear
of the Burke hotel building. He
was looking at me while I paid
the man for the potatoes and saw
me put the balance of the money
I had back Into my waist. I
wondered at the time what he
was looking at. me SO close for,
but didn't give the matter much
thought. A few minutes later l
started up town and noticed the
man gone. :. I had a headache
that evening so was walking
slow. AS I passed the opening
between the Mowers restaurant
and the. Bulletin office l was
siezed by someone and dragged
between the buildings. I
screamed, but the man. put his
'handover my mouth, and that. is
the last I remember. When I
regained Consciousness I was
back at our hotel.

COTTONWOOD LAKE
HAS BAD FIRE
Five Business Houses Are Des-
troyed in Inland Town in
Williams County

Sunday night fire started at
the inland town of Cottonwood
Lake in Williams county, about
16 miles west of Wildrose, and
destroyed almost half of the bus
mess section before it was finally
put out. Five business buildings
were burned: Dan Murray's con-
dictionary store and contents,
the postofice, the office of the
Cottonwood Lake Mixer, owned
by F. E. Stefonowicz, brother of
the editor of The Tribune, and
office of DR.. Jensen.
The fire started in the Murray
store from some unknown cause,
and though several tank loads of
water were hauled from the lake
and the citizens of the village
did heroic work, the fire had too
good a start and nothing could
be saved in that row of buildings.
Most Of the property was partly
covered by insurance, and we
learn that all buildings will be
rebuilt at once.
The Bowbells tribune. [volume] (Bowbells, Ward Co., N.D.) 1899-1969, 1911-09-22

II am told that I was picked
UP in front of the Burke hotel
building in an unconscious condi-
ton and carried home, so must
have gotten away from the man
between the buildings and ran as
far as where they found me.
The waist that l was wearing
had been torn off from me to-
gether with a two-dollar bill that
was pinned init.
Il am also told that I was
found by Laurence Hunter who
on turning his big can around
switched the headlights onto the
place where I was laying, and he
together with a crowd that had
gathered had taken me home. l
did not regain consciousness un-
till about eleven o'clock.
Sheriff Stainhofer was not
notified of the affair, and knew
nothing about it until about ten
o'clock the following morning
when he heard the matter dis
cussed on the street. He called
on Miss Porter as soon as he
learned Of the attack, but as she
was unable to describe her as
sailant in any other way other
than that he wore a duck coat,
he was unable to do anything.
He found a suspicious looking
stranger that had been in the
city the evening before and
brought him to Miss Porter, but
she was unable to identify him
as the one who attacked her.

TELLS ABOUT
CUT WORMS

.~
Worms Which Did Much
Damage this Season
Game Warden Staale Hendrick-
son of Coteau about ten days
ago sent a few Of the green and
black cut worms, which have
been doing so much damage to
the gardens in this vicinity dur
ing the past summer, to the De-
partment of Horticulture and
Forestry of the North Dakota
Agricultural College, with a re-
quest that the people here be
given some information regard
ing this destructive pest. The
worm has been more numerous
this year than ever before. and
many gardens had to be planted
oyer again last spring after be-
ing destroyed by this worm.
Following in the letter received
by Mr.. Hendrickson.
Agricultural College, N. D.
Sept. Is, 1911
Mr.. S. Hendrickson,
COteau N. D.
Dear Sir
Replying to your letter Of Sept.
II, I will say that the worm
which you describe is not the
true army worms although it
belongs to the same family.
Both of these worms and the cut
worm belong to the family Of
moths known as 'oulet" moths
or Noctuidae. They get their
family name from their habit of
flying chiefly at night. There
are a large number: of species
belonging to this family all of
which are more or less destruct-
i've. The one which you des-
cribe is a native of North Dak-
ota but is not usually found in
sufficient numbers to do any
great amount of damage, Its
native food seems to be the diff
ferent members of the goose
foot family including the pig
weeds, etc. This Of course, in
cludes also the beet and the
Russian thistle, They will eat
grain after the weeds are des-
troyed and they also eat flax
about as readily as they will eat
pig weed.
There are two broods each
year. This fall the breed which
you see will soon pupate, the in
sects then pass the winter in the
pupal stage emerging early in
the spring as moths. These then
lay their eggs in among small
grain and in seasons like the last
one a great deal of damage was
done at that time Of the year.
The insects pupate in the prairie
sod; in such places they could be
destroyed by burning the prai-
rie. In the days when the prai-
rie firss were more common than
they are now I never knew these
insects to be very numerous.
The worms will also pupate in
the stubble fields or wherever
they happen to be when the time
comes. In this case the pupae
can be destroyed by plowing. I
have never known the moths to
appear earlier than May LIST, and
any plowing before that time
should be sufficient to destroy
them. E......
Your best course to pursue for
the present is to see. that the
grass along the roadsides and
even, is the open prairie is burn
ed as soon as it becomes dry en-
ough and see that all: fields, par
ticularly those in which weeds
and;.a grass are growing. are
ploWed before the first of May.
I wish that you would send q
copy of this lettsr to your near
est newspaper as we are receiv-
ing many complaints from your
part of the state.
Very truly yours.
C.. B. WAIDRON.

CRACK SAFE
At L|GN|TE
Yeggs Burglarize Ignite Bank
and Get Away With Two
Thousand Dollars

,
Thousand Dollars
The Firt State Bank Of Lignite
was entered Monday morning at
about 2::15 o'clock and the safe
blown open with nitro glycerine
and in the neighborhood of
$4,000 in silver and currency
taken by the yeggmen. From
appearances the burglars opened
the safe in the same manner as
the safe in the Flaxton post
office several weeks ago was
opened by first twisting off the
handle of the door and then pour
ing nitro glycerine into the
opening and setting it off.
The bank at Ignite had what
is known as a burglar proof chest
which was on the inside Of the
big safe, and this chest contain
ed the money. It required four
explosions to do the job, one
charge probably being sufficient
to open the large safe and the
other three required to- open the
chest. - 49,.
The safe was completely wreck
ed, as was also the chest, but
outside of breaking some of the
window panes the building was
not damaged to any extent. The
furniture in the room was not
wrecked very much either, the
only thing being injured to any
extent being a table and large
chair. In the last explosion the
door of the chest flew across the
room striking two legs of table
cutting both off completely, and
then striking a chair and" totally
demolishing that.
The explosions wakened many
people in the village, and John
jacobson, noticing light in the
bank building, telephoned CEN
trail who in turn notified Clarence
Bliss at the livery barn. By the
time the people had armed them
selves and appeared on the scene
the yeggmen had made their
getway. The streets were as
dark as pitch and a high wind
was raging which made it diff
ficult to secure any trace of the
robbers. .
Sheriff Stainhofer was notified
immediately after the last ex-
plosion and he got to the scene
as soon as possible, but too late
to effect a capture. The people
at Lignite were unable to tell
which direction the robbers had
taken, whether they had left the
village on foot, horse back, by
auto, or otherwise, and Mr..
Stainhofer had no clue to work
on. He, however, organized
several posses, and during Mon
dey and Tuesday covered the en-.
tire territory in the hills country
4 but was unable to secure any
trace Of the culprits. . &
Before entering the bank the
men broke into the Grendahl &
Christensen hardware store and
stole several guns, revolvers and
a large amount Of ammunition.
The officers Of the Lignite
bank are President A. G. Wiper;
Vice President c. N. johnson
and Cashier T. N. johnson. I'LL
u It is believed that the same
men who robbed the postofice at
Flaxton q week ago last Sunday
are the yeggs that cracked the
safe in the First State bank at
tita " SD, gE.lt
Ignite Monday morning.
and escaped with So, 600 in silver
and currency. .3. ..s
The cashier Of q Flaxton bank
who oawas in Ignite the day be-.
fore the robbery says he saw the.
same two men at Ignite Sunday,
that he had seen the day before
