Ray Highly Of Trenton, Meets Tragic
Had be not Become Frantic.

Ray Highly, a Trenton, N. D. young
man lost his life in the Missouri river.
He had attended a ball game on the
opposite side of the river, and not ar
irving at the ferry in time to cross,
a boat was sent over for him. When
in the middle of the river, the swift
current was struck, and the boat
started down with the stream. When
the ferry cable was reached, Highly
got hold of it and was pulled from the
boat. One of his companions was
thrown out, but being good swimmer
he arrived at shore safely. The other
in the boat got to shore all right
Highly hung onto the cable for his life
and grew frantic. Those on the shore
cried to him to work his way towards
the shore along the cable and he did
this for 100 feet. A boat was sent
out for him and was pulled directly
under him, but he was afraid to let go,
and he kicked the boatman In the
face, nearly throwing him from the
boat. He finally loosened his hold
and disappeared.

Minot, Ryder, Plaza and Bismarck
Selected for Registration Points-
on Land.

1t has been definitely announced
hat the Registration for homesteads
on the Berthold Indian Reservation
will take place August IA, and Minot,
Bismarck, Ryder and Plaza have been
selected as the points for registration.
Thousands all over the United States
have their eyes on the choice fertile
claims out in the reservation, nearly
all of which is as level as a floor,
Uncle Sam allotted some of his very
choicest lands to the Indians, and at
no point in North Dakota can one find
better farming and grazing country
than on this reservation. The soil is
as black as mans hat and deep,
with clay sub-soil. 1t is not far down
to good water, and Ignite coal in
abundance is found in that vicinity.
The Missouri river runs thru the
reservation, and fine timber grows
along the river.
Of course somebody is going to be
disappointed, but it won't cost but
little to register, and who knows but
what you will be one of the lucky
ones. These farms will be worth three
or four thousand dollars the moment
they are secured

YOUNG MAN DROWNED
IN MISSOURI RIVER
MOISTURE IN MAY
AWAY ABOVE NORMAL

May, with it's frequent showers of
rain, totaling 1928 inches, sometime
reaching the point of torrent like pro-
positions, has been followed with 1ne
warm growing weather.
Based upon the average rainfall in
eastern North Dakota for twenty years
the district at the present time has
a surplus of moisture of 2:11 inches.
That is the condition revealed by fig.
ures given out by Prof. Howard e.
Simpson of the state university in
charge of the cooperative weather
bureau there.
Not only has the ainfall for the first
fie months of the year been above the
normal, but the temperature also has
been above the normal, so that from
the climatic point of view, conditions
for a big crop have been of the very
best.
The average rainfall for the first
five months during the twenty-year
period is 6.39 inches.
The total rainfall up to June az
recorded at the university was $50
inches. Only four times in twenty
years has that fall been exceeded
Last year the fall during the first five
months was only 2:53 inches, afford
ing a striking comparison.

points for the opening Of the Fort
Berthold Indian reservation. The de-
sas1a4ton Of the first two named towns
has been made by the general land
Office and information to this effect
was given to Representative Hanna.
The time Of the reservation opening
has not yet been determined. Although
it was his original intention to make
either Ryder or Plaza headquartera
of the force in charge Of the opening.
Judge Wbitten of the general land
Office, who will be at it's head, has do
cided upon Minot instead. The rea-
son is the superior police facilities of
the latter city, an important consid-
Grafton in view of possible influence

Elevators and Seed Dealers Sell
Enough Choice Seed Corn to Plant
Immense Tract in This vicinity-
Farms All in Line.

The elevators and seed dealers of
this city have sold enough corn to
farmers lying in the territory tribut-
ary to lMinot to plant 5000 acres Of
corn. Think Of it! A few years ago.
a farmer who attempted to raise corn
here was laughed at. Now the rule
is that each one grows some, and
scme farmers have as high as 80 acres
planted, and it is doing we'll too.
Eighty acres may seem a small tract
to some OF the corn growers of Illinois,
Iowa and Missouri but this is enough
to prove that the North Dakota farm.
er has learned by experience that q
very good grade of flint or dent corn
can be grown here. The corn Is
pretty sure to mature, and even tho
it did not, it makes an immense
amount of fine feed. We have seen
many acres of fine matured corn
grown right in the Minot territory,
some of the ears more than a foot
long. Mr.. Farmer, are you going to
be one of North Dakota's famous corn
growers?
Besides the 5000 acres around MI
not, one Burlington dealer alone sold
enough seed to plant $500 acres.
Hereafter, corn in North Dakota will
be one of the dependable crops.

M|NOT Will HAVE GREAT
!. RACE MEET JULY 3, 4, 5

We will give list of the entries
later.
Don Densmore, D. A. Dinnie's fast
horse, which has a record Of PIP Ia,
will attempt to lower the track record
of the state, which is 2:1O IA. This
horse mas been getting better every
year and there are good prospects this
year that he will break this record.
The automobile races will be the
very best. The machines entering
this race must enter for the three
days, to 60 four miles each day and
at the end of the third day the ma
chine making the best average will
be declared the winner.
1t is more than likely that large
aggregation of Indians from the Fort
Berthold reservation will be here for
the races, and if they do, the Indian
village will be one of the leading at
fractions.

will be perfectly satisfied if he can
become master of the air within that
period. In about two weeks, however,
he expects to make short flights and
he declares that when the air ship
is brought back to Minot, he will
ride in it himself.
A picture Of the ship was taken
Tuesday morning, with Mr.. Dorman in
1t. E. B. 'McCutcheon of the Re-
porter, and the editor of the Inde-
pendent were taken out to the grounds
by Mr.. Dc-man and privileged to in
spect the machine.
It was necessary for Mr.. Do-man
to build large hangar because of
the size of the monoplane.
Mr.. Dorman will fly during the Mi.
not race meet, each of the three days
1t cost a nice little fortune to secure
him for the Meet, and it might safely
be said to be the highest paid attrac-
ton for a racing meet known in the
state.
The monoplane will be on exhibie
at the races and those who enter the
grounds, will be allowed to inspect
it without further charge. This will
be an attraction worth while, and if
the weather is favorable, on July 4,
it is expected that fully ten thousand
people will be on the grounds.
