TRAIN AT LAkoTA.

Devils Lake, N. D., June 1s.-Pas-

the ejectment Of a passenger, sup

at Lakota. The man had made himself
Objectionable in the sleeping car to a
young lady passenger and when warn
ed by the train crew pulled revolver
and informed the bunch that they
would have merry time ejecting him.
His challenge was accepted and when
the train reached Lakota was bundled
up, bag and baggage, and placed upon
the station platform where the cool
night air was afforded an opportunity
to try it's hand at tempering his rage.
Evidently he decided to cool down

USED KEROSENE;
TERRIBLY BURNED

Cakes, N. D., June 16.--Miss Chris
tine Melby was very badly and
perhaps fatally burned and Sid Ber-
genthars house narrowly escaped being
burned to the ground. While getting
breakfast the fire was a little slow and
Miss Melby took the kerosene can
and poured some kerosene on the
lazy FIRE.
The action was quick and the explo-
sion was terrific. The can burst and
the kerosene was scattered all over
the kitchen and the girl and instantly
the room was filed the fame.
Miss Melby burst open the door
and rushed out blazing from head to
foot and screaming with might. A
number of the neighbors were out and
saw her and FASTENED to the spot.
Mr.. Kennedy and Rev. Mr.. Burns
jerked large rug from the clothes
line and threw it over the girl and
had the blaze on her out quickly.
She was conscious all the time and
told them the house was on fire.
Others had arrived on the scene and
almost instantly they had turned the
house hose on the fires and by hard
and persistent effort the fire was put
out but the kitchen is all charred from
the blaze. The door between the
kitchen and other rooms was closed
so that the gas and fire did not -get
into them or the house could not have
been saved.
Miss Melby was burned so that large
patches of skin came off with her
clothing. She was burned from head
to foot. She says this is the first
time that she has ever used oil to help
start a fire.

state of North Dakota collected at the
thirteenth decennial cesus, April To-
1910. are contained in an official state
ment issued by Acting Census Direc-
tor Falkner. The figures are prelimi-
nary and subject to slight revision
later. when a few other forms, whose
returns, now incomplete, will be in
cluded in the final tables. 1t is not
expected that these additions will ma
terially modify the amounts or rates
given in the present statement.
The leading crops in 1909, ranked in
the order of valuation, were: Wheat,
$97,791, 296; oats, $21,sO2.0OO fiaxseed.

From 4,451,251 acres in 1899 the
wheat acreage increased by 1909 to
S,17S,304 acres. of 1877 per cent. The
wheat acreage, although practically
doubling itself during the past decade,
has steadily maintained its immense
lead over oats. the second largest cere-
al acreage. The total wheat acreage in
1903, as in 1899, exceeds the combined
acreage Of all other cereals. The yield
of wheat per acre was reported at
fourteen bushels, the value an acre $12.
From 1899 to 1909 the acreage in
oats increased from 7S0,517 acres to

nearly tripled. The aggregate yield in

The increase during the past decade,
although not so large as that for the
one preceding. is steady, and consistent
with the immense gain in the other
crops. The total production in 1909
was 10,319,062 bushels, the average
yield an acre ten bushes, and the aver
age value an acre 1880.
From 1899 to 1909 the acreage in
barley increased from 2S7,O92 acres to
1.213,239 acres, or 1926 per cent. Since
1889, when 109,4O0 acres were har-

than eleven-fold. Although the grain
markable. the increase during the last
ten years is even more conspicuous.

Corn Acreage Growing.
From 1899 to 1909 the acreage of
corn increased from 62,373 acres to
1S6,7S7, or 1895 per cent, as compared
to an increase Of 421.S per cent during
the ten years preceding. Corn average
has steadily increased, but not SO rap
idly as that of oats. The total yield
in 1909 was 4,999,703 bushels, the aver
age yield an acre twenty-seven bush
els, the average value an acre S12.S4.
From 1899 to 1909 potatoes increas-
ed in acreage from 1885 to 49,006
acres, or 1894 per cent. The total

gaining 3,727,O5S acres. The average
value of cereals an acre in 1909 was
s11.40, over two and a half times that
of hay and forage. Corn shows the
highest average value per acre of the
cereals; rye the lowest. OF the hay
and forage crops, alfalfa is well above
the rest in average value per acre.
There are but small number of mis-
cellaneous crops, though the average
values an acre of several of them are
well above those Of the more usual
crops.
