FARRAND IS RETURNED

f, The big anniversary; con ference of the

being few changes. The 1912 conference

ference was the announcement by DR..

OF Calgary, Alta, would add $40. 600
more to his already generous gifts tc
the school.

GREATER STOCK YARDS
-.,.. ARE NEEDED At MED0RA

Medora needs greater stock yard facil-
tiles. At least this is the opinion of
VIM. H. Merifeld, living on the old
Roberts ranch eight or nine miles south
of the county seat town of Billings. He
says that the stockmen from the Beaver
creek and in the Trotter country cannot
ship at Wibaux or Sentinel Butte any
more on account of the settlers and are
Obliged to make long drive into Me-
dora. Bill Follis and other cattle grow
ers from the southwest who used to ship
from Dickinson find it almost impossi-
BILE to drive 10 the Eland yards and now
load at Medora.
In the palmy days of stock growing,
Dickinson was the greatest shipping
point in North Dakota or eastern Mon
tana and during one season the cattle
shipments here we're greater than at any
other point on the Northern Pacific
system. Things have changed since the
homesteaders came to Western North
Dakota in such great numbers and
Medora. the historic town of the Bad
Lands, has the distinction of shipping
more beef cattle now than any place
this side of Miles City.
Mr.. Meri6eld is an old frontiersman.
having resided in Wyoming and Mon
tana before coming to Western North
Dakota seven or eight years ago. He
looks for the cattlemen in the Bad Lands
to continue raising beef cattle about as
they have been doing the past few years
for long time. In his own case. he
expects to handle less stock but to feed
and care for the same in better shape
and will probably make just as much
money. He has river bottoms on the
Little Missouri where he can easily ir-
rigate and it is his intention TO try al
falfa and other fodder crops. Mr.. Merri-
field has a 10 b. p. Fairbanks Morse
engine and it will not cost him but a
little, to fit up a first-class irrigation
plant, enabling him to raise at least
two big alfalfa crops any year.

LINE UP

has won warm place for herself in the
regard of those who heard her speak.
That is one of the happiest traits of this
eminent woman-she never antagonizes :
but crystallizes into concrete shape the
ideas that every person has held more
or less vaguely in mind.
Two of Mrs. Gilman's twelve publish
ed books, Woman and Economics''
and Concerning Children are in the
public library, and doubtless many who
heard her speak will desire to know her
better by reading the work Of her pen.
Woman and Economics has been
