BASIS OF ACTION
FACT THAT BAKER WAS IN CAN.
ADA TWO YEARS SAVES CASE
FROM OUTLAW,

Devils Lake, n. D., July 26.-Charles
Anderson, merchant at Warwick, N.
D., was in Devils Lake this morning
en- route from Minnewaukan where he
attended to legal business, appearing
as witness in the court there.
The action was that of the state of
North Dakota against a man named
Baker who Is charged with breaking
into Anderson's store some four years
ago. The history of the case. which
has several offshoots, is very interest
ing.
Four years ago Baker is charged
with rifiing the Anderson store, Sc
curing, it is said, money, other valua-
bles and case Of beer. Before action
could be brought, he went to Canada
where he remained for some time.
Later he returned, and it Is alleged
made a clean breast Of it all and want
ed chance to start over again.
Credit was secured from Anderson
and when the bin was presented.
Baker is said to have used uncompli-
mentary terms and again went to
Canada. On his return the present
action was brought.
An important feature is that had ne
remained in some part of the United
states the offense would have been
outlawed. He has admitted however.
that he was in Canada two years
which States Attorney Sinness is an
important factor. The preliminary
hearing was to have been held at Min
newaukan yesterday but owing to the
fact that witness was absent it
was adjourned.

SECURES DIVORCE
in DISTRICT COURT

Devils Lake, N. d.. July 2s.-The
echo of the unhappy married life and
finally desertion on the part Of the
husband, leaving woman with seven
children, the oldest one thirteen years,
was heard In the Ramsey county dis
trict court yesterday afternoon when
Judge Cowan granted q divorce to
Mrs. Anna Wallace of Toxic. The
grounds were desertion and no APP
pearance was made by the defendant.
Supporting her family on a little
tract Of land mead Toxic has proven
considerable of a burden to the little
woman. The case yesterday was un-
fortunate from the start. Attorney
Traynor of Flynn & Traynor repre-
sented the plaintiff.

IN. D. FARMERS HAVE
HEAVY FEED BILLS
IMMENSE AMOUNT OF MONEY
PAID FOR STOCK RATIoNs
AND SEED.

jamestown, n. D.. July 26.-An i'm
mense amount Of money has been sent
out of North Dakota this spring by
farmers and dealers for feed for stock
II the various drafts for payment of
feed, sent to this state and collected
through the banks, could be aegre-
gated in amount, the total would prove
an enormous drain on the resources Of
the farmers, and accounts, in one way,
for tho scarcity Of ready money in
many parts OF the state.
Bankers in small towns have made
estimates Of the amount OF money uaid
out by farmers for feed in their locali-
Ties. In TWO small towns, one in Barnes
and one In Stutsman county. IL is re-
ported that farmers sent to Iowa and
Minnesota this spring over $4,000 for
reed. II other banks in the state have
RENTED in proportion, and there is no
reason to doubt that they have. the
aggregate Of money paid to elevators
and outside parties for feed for North
Dakota farmers hah been enormous.
Judging from the amounts paid out
70 elevators OF this county for feed it
y probable that from $4,000 to $780,
600 were paid out this spring by Suits
man county farmers for feed for horses
and other stock, to say nothing OF the
money paid for seed in the spring. In
the state the amount Of money paid
for feed alone this year, and sent out
Of the state, will aggregate from 81.
100000 to 100000. This is one
reason for a scarcity of ready money
with many farmers.
Farmers Taught Lesson.
Last year was a dry year and little
feed was raised, but the experience and
lesson taught by the scarcity may
prove beneficial in the future. North
Dakota can usually raise feed for ex-
port, and with the experiences Of the
1911 feed scarcity facing them, farm
ers will probably be more careful
hereafter in growing their own feed
instead of being forced to pay high
prices for 1t to others.
1t Is believed, with the recent rains.
that enough feed will be raised to sun
ply the home demands. Oats will he
specially benefited by the late rains
and II the stalks are too short to cut
with binders or headers, the crop can
be cut with mowers and stacked and
fed In the straw. Millet will also be
much better crop.

Omemee, N. d, July 26.-Rev. Mr..

ing that 1t was his last sermon in
Omemee, as he was forced to leave

service a few Of the christian workers
Of both the Presbyterian and Metho-
dist churches and a few others held
a hurried consultation and decided to
make the effort to raise the amount
of salary promised him independent
of the Presbytery. A committee was
appointed to take the after up with
our people and on making a canvass of
the town on Monday morning met

was that of pig narrowed on the

little fellow had two natural
tongues which hung out. one on
either side Of the mouth, double
lower jaw and two distinct rows VI
teeth between the tongues and two
outside, but just one mouth. De-
spite the ample provision made by
nature to take nourishment, the
little pig starved to death as he
was unable to take any and lived

in sight and carried off not a little.
The theory that the Job was done
by two or more hoodlums is borne
out by the fact that the articles stol-

they were in no hurry to get away
Is also true. They had some coffee.
