II Is doubtful il there is better

son and Wilson. Both are sturdy,
stocky men with lots of speed and
rushes that sweep aside all oppon-
ents, and vet a habit OF keeping their
men covered well. They will be
hard proposition for opposing Tor
wards TO solve this year.
They play back and rove the floor
alternately and the only weakness
that showed up in last nights play
with this system. is that occasionally
q sly forward is left near the basket
uncovered. With more practice and
a little more familiarity with each
other, this difficulty will no doubt be
overcomS, SO that even this method
of goaling will be stolen from antag-
onists.
Except on occasions when man
was left all TO his lonesome and by
chance happened TO get the ball. close
TO HIS basket, Evanston's attempts TO
score were from long range. and while
several pretty baskets were thrown,
there never can be enough OF the
spectacular kind TO win games.
Besides keeping their men tanned
down, Johnson got four baskets from
the field and Wilson three.
kreitz, who took the place of Brans-
ton at center last night, had hard
place to fill but he did 1t acceptably.
He got nine counters from the field
for Is points and added eight more
out OF Is chances from fouls.

INJUNCTION Will

ATTORNEYS CLAIM THAT CUES.

ED BY SUPREME
COURT.

Minot. N. D., Feb. 20.-An injunc-
ton restraining the new county COM
missioners of Stevenson county from
completing the organization of the
county may be secured by the at
torneys who have been fighting the
dividing of Mclean county.
The attorneys claim that the ques-
tion as to the legality of the division
of the county is now before the. SUI
preme court and that therefore Gov
ernor Burke had no right to appoint
the commissioners. The case was
scheduled to come up before the SUI
preme court this month, and until
the highest court in the state passes
on the question, it is not finally set
tied
One of the attorneys who has been
opposing the dividing of Mclean
county said today:
There will probably something
drop in this case in short time I'm
til this question is passed upon by
the supreme court, we do not think
it fair for the county to go ahead and
organize just as il the division was
legal. 1t is true that Stevenson
county won out in the lower court,
but the matter is not finally settled
until the supreme court passes upon
it."

get them started and he is succeeding.
There will be no tribal customs to fol-

GIRL FIRED 5
SHOTS IN HOTEL
1T is CLAIMED GIRL WAS JEAL-
Gus OVER ATTENTIONS
PAID ANOTHER GIRL.

Minot, N. D., Feb. 20.--Charging
that she fired five shots in the Waver-
ly hotel between and 10 o'clock last
evening, Captain Heneghan today en-
deavored. to secure a warrant for the
arrest of Florence Chester from Judge
Murray. The judge stated that he did
not think Heneghan was the proper
party to sign the complaint and did
not issue the warrant He says the
owner of the building or some person
aggrieved should sign the complaint.
1t is alleged that Miss Chester was
jealous over the attentions paid by
a MinSt young man to another girl,
and that she went up to his room
with the idea of causing trouble.
Miss Chester, it is thought, believ-
ed that the girl was in certain
room, but it developed later that
there was no woman in the room.
1t is alleged that Miss Chester began
to fire through the door and that
five shots were fired before she cool
ed down.
Fortunately no one was hurt, but
there was commotion in the hotel for
a time. There were large number
of guests at the hotel and the rapid
firing of five shots made them think
that they were in real battle.

Lakota, N. D., Feb. 2O,--Dr. Lohr-
baur, superintendent Of the county
board of health of Nelson county, has
condemned the county Jail as unsani-
tary. The necessity of new county
Jail has brought up the question Of the
removal of the county seat and as
there has been considerable discussion
in regard to this matter it is the gen.
eral sentiment that this should be set
tied at once for all, The county COM
missioners have passed a resolution
notifying the taxpayers that if they
should desire to take vote on the re-
moval of the county seat, the board is
ready and willing to hear any and all
such petitions relating to taking such
vote up to and including the first
Monday in July, 1912, and that the
commissioners will take no action on
the erection of new county jail be-
fore that time.

N. D. BECOMING
A DAIRY STATE
TRANSITION FROM ALL GRAIN
GROWING STATE is WELL UN-
DER WAY - PROFITABLE TO
THOSE ENGAGED IN IT-cooo
THING FOR LAND.

Bismarck Tribune: The report of
Dairy Commissioner Flint, recently is
sued shows that North Dakota is we'll
into the transition period from a one
crop state to one rtr'' which diversified
farming will be thesCule and not the
exception and that dairying is soon to
play most important part in a pro-
gressive movement toward the de-
Yelopment of hitherto unappreciated
resources. The report shows that al
ready great strides have been made
in the dairy business and that the
test as applied to those already in
the business has shown emphatically
and indisputably that North Dakota
is, by her combination of soil and
climate, we'll adapted to become, not
only the bread state of the union, but
the butter state as well.
For successful dairying there are
several essentials. There must be
good pasture and nowhere in this
broad land does wild grass, rich in
food values, grow more luxuriantly
than in North Dakota. Experiments
Fave also proven beyond the posi-
bility Of a doubt that we can success
fully grow alfalfa, corn and clover.
We have long known that our soil
and seasons were favorable to the
growing Of root crops Of all descrip-
tions so that we have a combination
of products of the soil, both wild and
cultivated that cannot be beaten for
food for the dairy COW. Dairymen
say we must have pure water and
there is hardly a section of the state
where this may not be found in abund-
ance. The demand for the products
of North Dakota creameries has shown
that we have the market for the pro-
duct and there are few sections that
have not at hand the solution of the
transportation problem.
Regarding the profits from the dairy
business the testimony so far as this
state is concerned is all one way.
Those who have so far engaged in the
business have made money and not
alone in the sale of butter, but in the
fact that they have thereby been con-
WINGED Of the desirability of diversified
farming. They have found that while
they are rotating crops from the land
to produce suitable fodder for the cows
they are also returning to the soil the
valuable fertilizer that replaces the
elements which constant wheat crop
ping has removed.

TRIBE PROLIFIC
TURTLE MOUNTAIN INDIANS IN
cREASlNG AT REMARKABLY
RAPID RATE-THE ALLoTTlNG
AGENT HAS TROUBLE sEcUR.
ING ENOUGH LAND.

Devils Lake, World: That the Tur-
tie mountain Indians stand little
chance of becoming an extinct race as
long as the public domains which are
rapidly being allotted TO them hold
out, is the opinion of Col John Arm
strong, who is in the employ of the
United States as Indian allotting agent
and who recently moved into his Of
fee in the federal building in this city.
1.-THE Turtle mountain Indians de-
serve a Rooseveltian medal if anyone
does" said Colonel Armstrong in a
conversation with a representative of
The World, "for a more prolific race
have never seen. Under our treaty
with the tribe, all the Indians origin
ally enrolled as members of the band
and their descendants that cannot be
taken care of on the small reservation
in Rolette county must be given free
and unencumbered quarter section
elsewhere. AS soon as a child is born
the name is enrolled with the agent
and our Office Is notified. The records
of the past two years show that in
many cases the children are enrolled
before they are a week old and the
birth rate is astounding"
That the problem of caring for the
excess was becoming somewhat of a
problem was the unqualified opinion
Of Colonel Armstrong, who reviewed
briefly the history of the treaty. The
Turtle mountain Indians formerly
owned 100000 acres Of land in the
Devils Lake land district and vicinity,
for which the government paid them
10 cents an acre, the money which
they are now receiving annually.
Under a law introduced by Senator
MCCumber of this state, a commission
was appointed under whose super
vision the members of the tribe were
enrolled and preparations made for al
lotting those who could not be taken
care of on the two townships left them
in Rolette quarters in other districts.
THE result of the enrolment has
become somewhat confusing" said
Colonel Armstrong. 1.-The commission
made 1t a rule that only Indians who
could prove their membership by ac-
tual presence in the band were en-
titled to be enrolled. AS a result we
find that while mother and her chill
dren may be enrolled the father who
was absent at the time is rank out
slider, while in many cases the elder
sons who were attending school failed
to get in on the plums."
