LIVE STOCK NOTES.

Try a measure of kindness for a balanced ration.
 Bank up the old barns to shut out the cold wind under the floors.
 The sunshine should come into ev- cry stable through large windows.
 Honestly. now, how many men did you ever see salt their horses in win teri
 Hogs properly sheltered will thrive on much less feed than those exposed to cold.
 Every window should have shutters to close tightly at night to keep the cold out.
 Alfalfa hay and corn have been found to be a most satisfactory fat ben4ng feed for hogs.
 Hog manure Is almost the richest of any made on the farm. Save 1t all and put it out on the land.
 Sheep are timid. nervous creatures. and all excitement and roughness should be avoided in handling them.
 If the food Is allowed to sour in the troughs. 1t will throw the hogs of feed. This will check growth. and is a loss.
 The passing of the long horn" cat tie is an evidence of the great ad- vance being made in the live stock in- dustry.
 Look out for sore tests on ewes with lambs. When such conditions are discovered, rub the affected parts twice a day with salted butter.
 Alfalfa meal Is not all the real stun. Some manufacturers sell a product that is pretty nearly pure. and then. again. there are others.
 The work-horses must have exercise and fresh air when not in use. Turn them out during the warm part of the day and let them enjoy themselves.
 Beet pulp and alfalfa make about as fine pig meat as ever found it's way to market-but, alas, ve do not all live in the beet pulp and alfalfa belt
 Don't try to winter fall pigs with out good provision for slop. Besides the feeding value, the slop encourages the pigs to drink freely. which is de sirsble in cold weather.

The tucked shirt waist is always 8 faynrifa and 1t is sufficiently orna- mental without the addition of any trimming. The model illustrated is one of the best, the plain fronts being completely covered with small, full length tucks, arranged in groups of two between the band closing and the shoulders. In the back two tucks on each side slant towards the center of the waist and form a shaped panel The neck is high and finished with a standing collar. while full length sleeves fit the arm snugly and end at the wrist in two groups of tucks. Such wash materials as linen, percale, mad ras, and pongee silk and also mes maline. taffetas, satin chailis and cashmere are appropriate for this waist.

$4,000 FIRE At
L|GN|TE LAST WEEK
Building Occupied by Gren-
dahl & Co. and Contents
are Totally Destroyed

Ignite, N. D., March g.
One of h e most disasterous
fires in the history Of Ignite oc-
Cured this evening at $50
o'clock, when the two story
structure owned by J. Towne, and
occupied by Grendahl & Co. gen.
eral merchandise, and also occu-
pied by Mr.. Towne as living,
rooms. and the post office build
ing, was totally destroyed by fire.
Approximately $11, 900 damages
was done which is partly covered
by insurance.
The fire was caused by a leak
age of one of the pipes of the
gasoline plant which was in the
rear end of the store. The fire
spread so rapidly that nothing of
the stock and household goods
and clothing of Mr.. and Mrs.
Towne and family could be saved.
The postmaster, with the assist
ance of the citizens was FORUM
ate to save the mails and fixtures.
Mrs. ToWne and children who
were at home alone had a narrow
escape from death as they lived
in the second story, and had to
fight their way through the flames
for safety.
The citizens of Ignite fought
the fire successfully, preventing
it's spread to other buildings in
it's neighborhood.
The loss is a great one to Mr..
Towne as he recently purchased
the building and only carried 5000
insurance on the building and 1o
insurance on his household goods,
and also to the proprietors Of the
Grendahl & Co.. s merchandise
stock, who were doing a success
full business.
1t is not known whether Mr..
Towne will rebuild this season.

WIPER BUYS COUNTY
SEED GRAIN BONDS
President of First National
Bank Pays $475 Premium
on County Bonds

The county bonds which were
sold Wednesday by the county
commissioners to procure funds
with which to buy seed grain for
needy farmers were bought by
President A. C. Wiper Of the
First National Bank. The amount
issued was $25, 900 drawing seven
per cent interest, and Mr.. Wiper
bought them at premium of $18
per thousand or $475 more than
their face value. Four other bids
besides Mr.. Wiper's were put in.
Burke county got by far a bet
ter deal out of their seed grain
bonds than did any other county
in the state. Ward county sold it's
bonds at a premium Of only $40
per thousand, Renville at a pre-
MUM Of $13 per thousand. Will
liams county getting only par for
theirs, and other counties in pro-
portion, but no county in North
Dakota came within SIS of getting
as much for their bonds as Burke
did.
: The county is to be congratu-
lated on being able to dispose of
their bonds at such good premi-
um. without even going out of
the county or even the city to do
so, and Mr.. Wiper is to be thank
ed for finding his way clear to put
in a higher bid than any of the
other bidders, three of which re-
sided in the east, where money
is a great deal cheaper than it is
here.

johnson. Benson, arraigned be-
fore Judge K. E. Leighton, made
a plea of guilty to a charge of
manslaughter on the strength of
an agreement previously made
that if the charge was reduced
from that of murder to man.
slaughter, that such a plea would
be entered.
Benson was accused of killing
johnson in a fight on a country
road near Columbus. The two
men had been employed on a
threshing crew, had been drink
ing. and it was when Benson took
a team of horses owned by John
son for the purpose Of securing
more liquor that the trouble arose.
Meeting on the highway the two
men fought, and in the fight Ben
son pulled a knife which he used
with damaging effect. johnson
was taken to Columbus but died
before medical attention could be
given.
Simon Carnes of Portal charg-
ed with rape, was convicted and
sentenced to the state penitenti-
ary for a term of from one to
five years.
Ray Shong Of Portal, convicted
of sodomy was sentenced to a
term Of ninety days in the coun-
ty Jail. The court told this pris-
oner while imposing the sentence
that had a plea of guilty been en-
tered at the start, instead
standing trial, a much lighter
sentence would have been the re-
suit. Sheriff Stainhofer and De-
puties Warren Heath and J. M.
Reid left Sunday night for Minot
where the prisoners will be taken
from the Ward county Jail to the
penitentiary at Bismarck to serve
their sentences.

A large amount of work still re-
mains on h e calendar unfin-
ished and it is very likely that

more was done at this term than
he had expected would be done
when he came here, and that he
was we'll pleased all around with
the result of the two weeks work.
The last criminal case to he
tried was that of A. O. Noting.
who was charged with burglary.
This case went to the jury on
Thursday afternoon of last week,
and during the evening a verdict
: of not guilty was brought in.

the malpractice case o f Susie

This case went to the jury Satur-
day afternoon. and late that eve-
ming verdict in favor Of the

son of the doctor calling in the
assistance of a young man who
was not a physician while she
was being confined a nd the
doctor claimed that the case
was one of emer ency
and it was necessary to do so In
order to save the plaintiffs life.
Judge Leighton. on this action,
directed the jury that no dam
ages could be allowed plaintiff
under such cause Of action as in
an emergency any person could
be called in by the physician.
The plaintiff also claimed damages
by reason of having sustained
severe burn causing permanent
injury, which burn was caused
by nurses claimed to be in the
employ of the doctor, the doctor
not being present at the time.
Judge Leighton held that in or
der to make the doctor RESPONSE
Bile in such case the act Of negli-
gence of the nurses complained
of must have been committed in
the presence of the doctor and
under his supervision and control
or they must be in the employ OF
