May USE OIL
ON The STREETS
CITY COUNCIL TO CONSIDER U.S.
ING o1LER INSTEAD OF
STREET SPRINKLER.

G. X. Hills and w. H. Meyers, repre-
scntatives Of the Standard Oil company,
were in the city Wednesday comforting
with the members of the city council
relative to the use Of new preparation
manufactured by the Standard Oil COM
pany, on the streets of Devils Lake.
The preparation if used on the streets
will, it is claimed, lay the dust and
harden them like asphalt. The treat
ment is ninexpensive one and does
away with the necessity of using water
on the streets. The preparation is now
being used in Valley City, Oakes, Fes
sender and other North Dakota cities
and is said to be most successful.
According to the representatives the
cost will not exceed the price paid for
the use of the sprinkler and will prove
far more effective. Under the new
plan, if adopted, the sprinkling cart
would be used in the residence parts Of
the city where it has not been for sew
eral seasons.
The matter will be brought up for
final disposition next Monday at the
regular meeting Of the council.

PLAN CHAIN OF
GAME PRESERVES
MICHIGAN MAN INTERESTED IN
SERIES FROM GULF TO
ARCTIC REGION.

New Orleans, La, May 31.-A chain
of game preserves, extending from the
Gulf of Mexico to the Arctic regions,
is an ambitious plan revealed by the
recent gift to the state of Louisiana of
a preserve Of twenty square miles of
marsh meadow lands by Charles Willis
Ward OF Michigan and Edward Avery
McIllhenny of Avery Island, La.
"The plans devised by Mr.. McIllhen.
ny and myself said Mr.. Ward here tc.
day, "is to establish zones of refuge
along the coast i'll lines of migratory
flights, extending all the way to the
grounds Of water fowls. The Nippigor
forest and game preserve, comprising
about 100000 acres, affords hand
some beginning in Western Canada anG
it is expected that the Dominion viii
establish another mammoth fowl breed
ing preserve west Of Hudson bay. ii
thus remains for the states in the Miss
issippi watershed to establish preserve:
connecting the gulf and Canada.'

M'GURREN LOST MATCH
CRARY WRESTLER THROWN BY
DoRAN IN SHORT FALLS
DORAN CHALLENGED.

Grand Forks, N. D., May 31.-Ed.
Doran of Crystal last night took two
straight falls from P. H. McGurren of
Crary, winning the state middleweight
championship and side bet of 800 by
the victory. The time Of the first fall
was eight minutes and of the second,
six minutes.
The match was witnessed by the
largest crowd that ever witnessed a
wrestling match in Grand Forks Both
men had brought several hundred ad-
mirers from their respective localities
to see the clash, and enthusiasm was
rampant on the part Of the spectators
to say the least.
Although of short duration, the bout
was the hardest staged in years. Both
men were out for blood, straining every
nerve and muscle every instant, con-
stantly on the lookout for surprises and
taking advantage of tvcry little slip
on the part of each other.
McGurren proved to be good loser.
The Crary druggist was not backward
about congratulating his opponent in
a hearty way and said that the Crystal
artist was in entirely different shape
than year ago, when the two men
met. And Doran was. Generally
weighing about l65 pounds stripped, he
tipped the scales at about 1853 last eve
ming, and outside of little upset Of
the stomach in the first fall, his con-
ttition never seemed to be better. Me
Gurren, on the other hand, had taken
off weight too fast, and this probably
accounts for his lack Of aggressiveness
McGurren has removed about eighteen
pounds Of superfuous flesh in less than
a month-too fast to leave a man in
tip top shape. Walter Quigley refereed
the main bout.
Simpson Challenges.
Prof. Dan Simpson, former instructor
in wrestling at the University of Mimi
esota, challenged Doran after the match
and the challenge was accepted.

GOOD CORN CROP
IS PROMISED
NORTH DAKOTA YIELD TO BE
TR1PLED-GooD CONDITIONS
ARE GENERAL.

st. Paul, Mimi, May 3l.-Corn that
promises to reach full maturity before
frost can get it in the fall is growing
in many fields this yea ralong the lines
of the Great Northern road in North
Dakota, and according to reports to the
office of w. P. Kenney, traffic manager,
the outloo kis for a production Of feed
stuff far in excess Of the average. J..
G. Woodworth, traffic manager of the
Northern Pacific, has reports of the
same nature. North Dakota, which has
never figured as important in corn pro-
duction promises this year to produce
three times as much as ever before.
The Minneapolis and st. Louis road
has patches of corn along its lines in
South Dakota that show advanced
growth. H. J. Wagon, superintendent
Of the Chicago s. Northwestern road
at Winona, reports all crops in excel.
lent condition. The Chicago, Great
Western has the best corn prospect
ever known in southern Minnesota and
northern Iowa. On the new line of the
Milwaukee, according to reports to tn :
Office Of Supt. J. H. Foster, there has
been much corn put in, which is in a
fine stage Of growth.
Prof. A. D. Wilson, o. NJ Olson and
G. P. Bull, Of the agricultural college
whose duties have taken them over
the state extensively in the past few
days, report that the crop outlook is
very good. Yellow Medicine and Lac
Qui Parle counties will need rain soon
but are not suffering for lack Of it.

THE WEEKLY
WORLD

There seems to be a mistaken idea
abroad that with the commencement Of
the daily issues, the weekly will be
discontinued. Nothing could be further
from the thoughts of the management.
The weekly has been built up from
nothing to state paper widely quoted,
with an excellent subscription list. The
publishers intend to devote every ef-
fort to make the weekly better still.
New departments will constantly be
added and with tho increased news ser
vice made possible by daily the read
ing matter will be live and up to date.
AS an advertising medium, The
Weekly World has stood ahead Of all
competitors in this city and it intends
to hold that place still.
The daily is to supply long felt
want in the city and surrounding towns,
just as the weekly was installed be.
cause of the desire Of the residents of
Ramsey county to read publication
which could be counted upon to tell the
truth.

months has been manager Of the Inter
Ocean, has been secured as city editor

the people Of Devils Lake plenty Of re-
liable and interesting news matter. Mr..
Austin has been engaged in the daily
game since 1904 when he was employed
as golf correspondent for the Chicago
Tribune. Since 1906 he has been res
ident Of this state. For two years he

ternoon and will be distributed by car
rier to all parts Of the city. It will
