NEWS OF THE NORTHWEST
EMM0NS COUNTY Will
Have SPECIAL DAY
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 6, is DATE SET
FOR NEIGHB0RlNG COUNTY
Residents Are More Than Enthusi-
astic Ove, Opportunity to Display
Their Resources.

Emmons county will have special
day at the Industrial Exposition. Fol-
lowing the example of the other coun-
ties Emmons comes forward with the
request that she be given Friday,
October 9Th, and Supt. Gilbreath has
kindly granted the request. So Octo"
Der 9Th is Emmons County Day.
On the early morning of that day
the people of Emmons county will
don their holiday attire, board spe-
cial train and come to the big show.
Emmons county, aside from her
progressive farmers has some good
towns. The commercial organizations
of these municipalities have been &C
tive in promoting the Exposition.
Much time and money have been
spent in collecting the best of every
thing for the exhibit. The Emmons
county articles on display will occupy
a special booth and be in charge Of an
Emmons county man. When the spe.
cial train arrives the visitors from
that county will go directly to the
big building and other attractions.
It will take all day to do this and
in the evening the happy excursion
lists will return to their homes with
the consciousness that they have done
their full share towards making North
Dakota's first Industrial Exposition
an affair to attract national attention.
North Dakota has the material to
accomplish this and there is no county
in the state which will Dut forth q
greater effort than Emmons.

A Minor Consideration.

1t was often remarked by the rela-
tives of Uncle Gideon Dobbs that he
was a most delightful person to whom
to confide cherished ambition or dis
play an achievement. Whether Uncle
Gideon understood fully or not, he was
always ready with sympathy, admira-
ton or encouragement.
When the family received the sum-
mons to inspect young Franklin Dobbs'
invention, the mysterious work which
had occupied him for nearly a year,
Uncle Gideon was all enthusiasm. He
entered the room where the invention,
a thing Of many small wheels and
bars, was placed on heavy table.
stepped up to his nephew and wrung
his hand.
you've done something to be proud
of. my boy" he said cordially. Look
at all those little wheels, each In Its
proper place and all running like clock
work. It's a perfect success, my boy,
a perfect success. What's It fOf?"-

BIG irrigation
project IS Plan
OF Regent men
Commercial Club Decides to
Reclaim Much Valuable
State Engineer Atkinson Out
lines Work Of the Con-
StfuCtiOD

REGENT, N. D., Sept. 5.-The com
mercial club of this city has shown
it's progressive spirit In very prac'
teal and laudable manner, by 1ts
recent decision to construct an lrr1ga:
tion project on the bottom lands OF
the Cannon Ball river, adjoining town
They have made arrangements 1or
the lease of about thirty acres OF land
and will install a centrifugal pump
with a capacity of fifteen hundred gar
Ions of water per minute, raising the
water from the river with gasoline
traction, about u H. P. being required
for the work.
State Engineer Atkinson recently
laid out the bitches and advised the
immediate installation of the pump
and the irrigation of the land In the
latter part of October of the first OF
November, as in his judgement, If the
land is filled with water this fall it
will be in much better condition for
breaking and seeding in the early
spring.
The land on which the irrigation
will be done is all unbroken prairie,
and 1.-THE irrigation demonstration
which will be shown will be very val
liable to the farmers of the county
and to everyone along the Cannon
Ball river, and will show fully the
great benefits to be derived by using
irrigation water on the land wherever
it is possible to do so.
1t is the intention of the CONNER
cial club to make one of their memb.
ers manager of the proposition, and
through him strict account will be
kept of the cost of developing the
project, the cost to deliver the water
on the land and the profit per acre.
A considerable portion of this irri.
gated land will be seeded to fax which
will be cultivated in the same manner
as the irrigated land with the excep.
ton that no water will be applied
This will demonstrate very fully the
difference in yield between the irri-
gated and non-irrigated land; they
will have very valuable information
to give to the farmers along the
entire Cannon Ball country.
In addition to the flax which will
be seeded there will be a few acres
put into potatoes, some of which will
be irrigated and some non-irrigated.
They will also seed abut one acre of
garden truck, so that COMPLETE DEM
onstration farm will be carried on
for the next few years.
State Engineer Atkinson is very con.
f1dent that from this first years crop
the commercial club will receive suffi-
clent returns to not only pay the cost
OF the development project but good
profit besides.
The enthusiasm shown by the repre-
sentative men of the city in this work
Is very marked, and good results are
sure to be obtained therefrom. In ad.
dition to the irrigation work and DEM
onstration farm, they are also hold
ing farmers meetings and advising
the farmers the best methods of cul-
tivation and rotation of crops, and
such activity in this direction is
bound to bring about better farming
methods, which will bring greater
Financial returns to the farmers and
to the city.

MUCH Interest
II; in new SIL0S

youngstown, N. D., Sept. s.
Much interest has been manifested
curing the past few days in the pre-
paratlon OF the ensilage with which
the seven new silos, recently pur-
chased by farmers residing near this
town and New Salem, were filled. Two
large ensilage cutters were in USE
one at this point and the other at
New Salem, and many people were
present to watch the big silos, filled
for the first time. These silos, which
are said to be the first erected in the
slope country, will doubtless soon be
but small number of those in use
as there are number of parties who
plan to use them in case these prove
to be as sue essful as is hoped.

| At new Leipzig
New Bridge Over Cannon
Ball has Just Been
! Completed
Breezy News Notes From the
Progressive City Of
| the Slope
Especial to the TrIbune)

NEW LEIPZIG, N. d., Sept. g.
New Leipzig is to have a first class
Northern Pacific depot and other i'm
provements as we'll. Div. Supt. Bird
sell was in town one day last week
and made definite announcement pf
that fact. 1t will be built between
the Milwaukee and N. P. tracks fac
ing west on Main street. The depot
is to be built this fall. This announce
ment is naturally the cause of much
satisfaction here. This depot will be
decided addition to the town. The
Milwaukee road already has an excel
lent depot here so this will be the
second depot for New Leipzig. The
people of the town take. great pride IN
the fact that New Leipzig is the only
town in Morton county that has the
service of both these roads. The N.
P. will also send q steam shovel here
later in the season to take away part
of the hill on its right Of way and do
some more filling, to make more track
age room. When the work is COM
pleted, permanent stock yards are to
be built on level with the car door
to make loading of stock easy. These
extensive improvements by the N. p.
at this point are an emphatic recog-
milton of New Leipzig as an important
trading point.
An important new business is also
scheduled for this town. The Rus
sel4Miller Mill ng company is going to
make New Leipzig distributing point
for it's products. The company has
secured lease on the N. P.'s right
of way and will put up ware house
here soon. The particular object is
to supply the towns along the Milwau-
kee road, New Leipzig being a trans
fer town. New Leipzig owes this
business directly to the presence of
the two railroads here.
A substantial new bridge has just
been completed over the Cannon Ball
river south of New heipzig. The
material was donated by the Milwau-
kee railroad company. This bridge
insures New Leipzig an extensive
trade from the south and will help
greatly to make it the important trade
center that it is destined to be.
New Leipzig offers a good opening
for another general store at this time.
Inquiries addressed to the president
of the Commercial club will be
promptly answered.
Threshing is in progress and
grain is yielding rather better than
expected.
The New Leipzig school starts
Monday.

'ST, MARY'S SCHOOL HAS
Opened FOR THE Year
ENROLMENT ON FIRST DAY

RECORDS
Excellent Courses Are Offered and
There Are Many Special Advance
Courses-Speciai Course 10 Popular.

The school year commenced at st.
Mary's parochial school Tuesday
morning with an enrolment of forty
more pupils for the first day than ever
before. The total enrolment OF the
school is about 200, which is an in
crease over former years and Sister
Magdelene, who has been in charge
of St. Mary's for several years, expects
the coming season to be one of the
most prosperous in the history of the
institution.
Students who complete the course
are credited with the same work as
is taken up in the first eight years
of the regular grade schools. Some
advance courses are also offered.
which are of a preparatory nature for
the eastern schools above the high
schol grade.
The corps of instructors is the same
as that of last year and the scope
of the work will be practically the
same. The German course offered Is
one of the best that can be obtained
in the city and special attention Is
also paid to the musical courses.
Sister Anastasia has charge of this de-
partment and complete courses are
offered with all the principal musical
instruments, special advance courses
being offered in nearly all of them.
A recent innovation that is proving
very popular will undoubtedly devel-
ope into a regular course is the de-
votion of one afternoon a week to
sewing and fancy needlework.

tractor, of the Capitol city, accom-
panied by Mrs. Laurent and his STEP

soula where they went a short time
ago. Mr.. Laurent has purchased the
famous Lucas fruit ranch In the Rat
tlesnake valley, and purposes to move
there within few weeks. The Mis-
soula Sentinel said of the transac-
ton:
The famous Lucas fruit ranch of Is
acres adjoining the Clark ranch in the
Rationale valley changed hands to-
day when it was purchased from
Charles E. Lucas by Albert Laurent,
of Bismarck. N. D., for $4,000. The
transfer was made through tie real
estate firm of Rhoades & Howard.
]. M. Rhoades personally negotiating
the deal. This is one of the most i'm.
portant sales Of matured orchard
property made in Missoula this sea-
son. It ia believed it will prove the
forerunner of many purchases of de-
veloped fruit land in this vicinity
that will be registered before the
season closes.
The ranch has q splendid orchard
of apple trees from five to eight years
old and Is well supplied with cherry,
pear and other fruit trees, all of which
are making splendid showing this
year. The ranch this season will
produce 5000 boxes of apples, mostly
OF the famous Mcintosh Red variety.
Already more than $500 worth of
cherries have been sold by Mr.. Lucas
On one limb of an apple tree Mr.
Laurent t his morning counted 81
perfect specimens of the brand that
has made this section famous the
country over.
Mr.. Laurent is accompanied by Mrs.
Laurent and his stepson, Walter
Coombs They will remain in Mis-
soula for few days to arrange for
the harvesting of the crop and will
then return to Bismarck. Mr.. Laurent,
who is in the building and contract
ing business in the North Dakota
capitol, plans to dispose of his hold
ings in that state as rapidly as pos
sible and expects to become a per-
manent resident of the Rattlesnake
valley before snow flies. He intends
to devote himself seriously to fruit
growing from now on.
Charles e. Lucas, the owner of the
ranch disposed of the property only
because of ill health. His health has
failed to such an extent that, under
the doctors orders, he will spend the
winter in California.
