INCREASED USE OF NOSE NETS

INCREASED USE OF NOSE NETS
Dealers report the sale OF large
number of nose nets for horses this
year, and farmers have been obliged
to purchase wire protection against
flies and kind of a bee that bothers
horses exceedingly at times. The
appearance of this sweat bee Is OF
rather recent occurrence, and rot un-
til about four years ago had farmers
and others been obliged to protect
the nostrils of horses from the files
and bees. The insects get into the
horses nostrils and the animals be-
come frantic with the pain, and at
times it has been difficult to work
horses in the field without nose pro-
lection from insects. One FARMER
recently ordered dozen wire nets to
fasten to the brides as the horses
refused to continue plowing owing to
the frequent attack of insects. 1t
ia said that horses left in pasture
will spend much of the time with
their heads close to the ground dur
ing the day, and facing each otner'
'f,eht insects and feed at night.

applications of parties for marriage
license, but the same shall be sent

If any of the persons intending to
marry are under age, the Judge shall
require the consent of the parent or
guardian, if there is any, personally
given, or certificate of consent

CATION of business men and farmers

crop of 49S,O0O bushels for the
north country. The people of Mer-
Ger county are exceedingly anxious
to get railroad connection and Presi-
dent Elliott appreciates their needs
and seems willing to do anything he
can. but the fact is the railroads are
not doing any more building this
wear than they have to. The steel at
Mandan which was supposed to be
for this up-river branch, was taken
to the Pingree-Wilton extension east
of the Missouri river month ago.
Mr.. Elliott did not make any prom
ises and it is not believed that any,
thing will be done on the branch this

WESTON ON WALKING FOL
HEALTH

Walking loses much of it's benefi-
cial effect unless you persist In it.
After time, the will power seems
to increase with the increasing pow
ers of the body, and it becomes less
difficult to start on the walk. I can
sympathize with this same inciina-
tion for I've never yet began long
tramp without feeling, for the first
few days and after rest, a shrink
ing from the exertion that lay ahead
of me. But I knew that after I had
logged mile or so, would find my
self in fine fettle, and at the end OF
the third or fourth mile I felt as If
l could keep going all day.
The gait in walking is most i'm
portant matter, for unless a proper
one is used, you tire quickly and
lot of minor ills are apt to result.
The proper gait is natural one.
Don't listen to anybody who talks to
YOU about "toe-and-heel' or any 9TH
er fancy method of getting over the
ground.

RECALLS EXPERIENCES
OF CUSTER MASSACRE
Boot Black in Terry's Regiment Cap.
tured by Indians Visits
Bismarck

Bismarck, Aug. 2S.-Among those
who registered Saturday was F. H.
Lamping of Cleveland, o. Mr.. LAM
ping has not been in this part of the
country since he was, mere boy
and was very much surprised at the
growth Of the state.
Mr.. Lamping's recital of his boy
hood experiences read like chapter
from a thrilling melodrama. In
1876, when ~ years of age. he left
home and came west, finally getting
position as bootblack in the famous
Terry's column, which was the first
force of troops to come upon the
scene of the Custer massacre.
When the travel worn column
came upon the field where the butch
cry had occurred, the lad became
frightened at the terrible scene and
deserted his officer, starting out for
Fort Berthold on foot and alone. He
was on the wrong side of the Yell
lowstone river and could find no ford
or place where he could cross. After
a several days tramp he suddenly
came upon a party of Indians in war
paint around a bend in the river,
crossing ford on their ponies. The
Mortified lad turned and ran but was
soon captured by one Of the braves.
Mr.. Lamping says that he believes
the fact that he was SO young was
the only thing that saved him from
death as the Indians, who proved to
be party of Crows under the lead
ership of Red Cloud, held a long
consultation before deciding to take
him with them. The party crossed
the ford at the scene of the capture
and went down into the Sissetons in
South Dakota.
Red Cloud treated the white boy
very kindly, but compelled him to
live in the village until he grew to be
a young man, desiring that he marry
his daughter. Lamping did not take
kindly to this idea and one night es-
caped, making his way to Kansas
City along the river, from where he
went east.
He never has returned to the
scene of his boyhood adventures,
having lived at Cleveland most OF
the Intervening time, until this year
when he was suddenly taken with
desire to get claim upon the Berth
old reservation.

bulletin ON WHEAT
Highest Flour Percentage Comes
From jamestown Fife

Wheat Investigations is the IT,
tie of Bulletin No. 80. North Dakota
Experiment Station. It is by Pro-
fessor E. F. Ladd and c. H. Bailey.
1t gives the results of the milling
and baking tests on the wheats of
1908, 1909 and 1910.
OF the spring wheat Of 1910 a fife
from Jamestown gave 1876 per cent
of -four, the highest secured; some
going as low as 63.3 per cent -four
the average being 1872 per cent
The average per cent of bran was
1O.6 per cent and of shorts 1873 per
cent, which would mean that BUSH
ell of 60 pounds would give 43k
pounds -four, 9h pounds shorts and
6k pounds bran and one-half pound
loss. The highest per cent of -four
of the durum wheat was 1878 per
cent and the general average
was 6S4 per cent, bran 6h and
shorts 24k per cent. The largest
volume was secured from blue stem
wheat, next highest from fife.
Maps are also given showing the
production of. wheat per acre In the
different counties of the state. Bot
tineau, Nelson, Steele and LaMoure
counties are in the lead with a yield
of over 5000 bushels per square
mile. OF the Durum wheat La
Moure, Ransom, Sergeant, Dickey and

cent Of this kind of wheat raised in
the state.
