THAT RAWHIDING
At TURTLE LAKE

McClusky Gazette: About 200 spec
tators witnessed Miss Ethel Halves adj
minister a severe horsewhipping to
Howard WATSON at Turtle Lake on
Wednesday evening. Miss Halves is
a music teacher of that place and has
also class in music here. Howard
WATSON is a brakeman on the North
ern Pacific passenger train and is
we'll known here, having been a resi-
dent Of this place several years ago.
When the train arrived on Wednes-
day evening almost the entire popula-
ton Of Turtle Lake was at the depot
Immediately after WATSON had assisted
the passengers to alight, several men
seized and held him while Miss Halves
dashed him across the face and body
with a rawhide whip. Wasson's face
was gashed in several places and both
eyes were blackened in the melee.
Trouble between the parties has
been brewing for some time Several
weeks ago Miss Halves made COM
plant against WATSON to the Northern
Pacific Co., alleging that he had in
suited her and requested that he be
dismissed from the employ of the COM
pany. Pending Investigations, WATSON
was laid off. After investigation the
company concluded that the charges
were groundless and reinstated Was

trip after his reinstatement. WATSON
claims that Miss Halves wanted to
get him discharged in order that an
other brakeman, with whom she kept
company, could get the run
There will be bitter legal battle
over the affair. The Northern Pacific
Co. will prosecute the participants
from the fact that WATSON was on
duty at the time of the episode, and
from the further fact that the COM
pany has had zone hell of time" at
Turtle Lake since the depot was built.
WATSON will prosecute the case per-
sonally and has already retained Atty.

AT THE oRPHEuM.

This is what The Crookston Times
says OF the acts to open at the Or
pheum this evening:
1t will be a difficult matter to se-
lect any one of the six acts last even
ing for exclusive mention, as every
act was a headliner and every actor
and actress an artist in his or her
line. The bill opened by a most clever
gymnastic act by Potter g. Harris
The exceptionally skillful work they
did on the brass rings brought ap-
plause repeatedly, and the more diff
cult stunts caused many thrills,
Henry Give & Co. do a stunt in COM
edy magic which keeps the audience
In the best of humor throughout. Mr.,
Give is an artist in his line and he
deserves the applauses which his efforts
evoked
His Phantom Sweetheart, a beautiful
dramatic sketch, in which the leading
parts are taken by Mr. and Mrs. Fred
erick Allen, an actor and actress of
great ability. The sketch is one of hui
man interest, the story of capitalist
who has become hardened by success
and then softened by his boyhood
sweetheart, who appears as an appari-
ton. The sketch is headliner which
appeals strongly to all, and deservedly
met with approval last evening.

DRAWN AND
UNDRAWN POULTRY.

The results of the investigations into
the comparative rate of decomposition
of drawn and undrawn market poultry
made by the u. S. department of agri-
culture during the season I909-1910
have just been published in Chemis-
try Circular 10. The conditions of the
experiment were strictly commercial,
as the fowls were killed and dressed
by the regular employees of a poultry
packing house, were shipped in the
usual one- dozen the box package in a
car lot of dressed poultry, were receiv-
ed by wholesaler and handled with
his stock, and went to the> retailer
when he purchased fowls from the
same car lot, remaining in his shop
for the period which the market hap
pened to require for their sale.
The shipments extended over per-
iod OF six months, from January to
June, inclusive, and the haul was about
LOO miles, requiring on the average
of seven and one-half days. The birds
were mature hens, large and fairly fat
and the method of killing was by
bleeding through the mouth and pune
turing the brain through the skull Just
below the eye. The carcasses were
dressed according to methods known
respectively as full drawn" wire
drawn Boston drawn and some are
undrawn, all being dry picked, and
the evisceration was conducted with
sufficient care to render washing I'M
necessary.
The routine of dressing, packing and
shipping, and general handling In these
experiments is far above the average
In fact IL all market poultry should be
handled SO well, the problem Of decay
would become insignificant.

In detail in the pamphlet demonstrates

SELECTING GOOD COWS
o. c. Gregg, Lecturer of the North pa.
kota Farmers Institutes, Gives
Some Pointers.

The five points to be observed in
the seecting of good milking cows
from grades or native cows are the
prominent ones that will appear in all
Of the milking forms of the cattle race
without regard to breed. We can
give these points under numerical
heads" says o. c. Gregg, one Of the
North Dakota institute workers.
First: Observe with care and note
as first point, that the COW that we
are now passing upon has large and
ample sized body. Let this body ex-
tend from point just back of the
shoulder straight down to the lower
part also let it be included between
the line that we have mentioned and
line that we will call imaginary
that will extend from the hook or hip
bone straight down to the lower part
OF the body again. 1t is an excellent
thing If the depth Of the body is as
strong or stronger at this last point
as at any other point that we will call
its depth. Sometimes this bodily
capacity is composed to a certain ex-
tent in the length Of the body. In
either case we want a large, ample
and capacious body. This large body
is needed and must appear for the
ample supply of milk must come from
much food received and digested with
In the area that we have noted. This
food content is there taken up into the
blood. With this evidence of a good
supply Of blood we have a good start
in estimating that we will have a good
supply of milk.
Second: Look with care behind the
fore shoulder and observe If the back
bone lis prominent and il that part of
the body which is called the crops is
.scantily covered with flesh; this does
not mean that the animal shall be in
poor condition; IL only means that the
laninal Is not inclined to use this
blood to make flesh out of it. Beef
cattle are full at this part of the body.
We are selecting for milk. We want
the ample supply of blood to go to the
,udder where the milk is made.
Third: Next go to the udder and
see If 1t be reasonably large. DO not
depend upon the eye to estimate this
size. Many very good udders are con-
tanned largely within the body and
their size is not apparent You will
see the fore part Of the udder be 1t
large or small. Take hold Of the skin
between the hind quarters. Up to the
point where the skin ceases to be as
loose as upon the other part of the
body we can judge that the udder ex-
tends. One can get fair idea of the
udder attachment to the body by
drawing an imaginary line from the
point Last mentioned to the front udder
that we have seen; this will give one a
distinct and positive line of attachment
of the udder to the body If that
line Is long, then we have the clasp
ing form. In such form we have
natures provision to receive that ample

new LAW POINT
is BROUGHT OUT

jamestown, N. D., April 11.-A nice
point of law was brought up before
Judge Coffey in the chambers here
while he was hearing motions. A mo-
ton was made before him to set aside
q decision made by Judge Burke on the
grouncts that Judgment ordered by
Judge Burke was not filed in the office
of the clerk of court until the day after
Judge Burke qualified for the SUI
preme bench and for that reason was
no longer district judge.
The case was that of Ora Hemp
hill VS.. w. L. Hemphill, brothers. in
volving title to a quarter section Of
land. It was called at the June term
of district court in 1910 and after pro-
longed litigation in which the case
was hard fought with Seller & AyI-
mer for the plaintiff and John Knauf
for the defendant. Ora was given the
decision after the judge had con-
sidered the law pertaining to Il and
this, with the delay of filing the
judgment he ordered, made the time
overlap his stay on the district bench
After going into the matter Judge
Coffey refused to consider the motion
to set aside Judge Burke's decision al
though the execution bore the name of
Judge Burke and the date of the day
following Judge Burkes assumption
of the gown of the supreme justice.
A divorce was granted Sanford
Shatn VS.. Julia Shain of this city The
property acquired by the couple was
as nearly evenly divided as possible.
Mrs. Shain taking the Minneapolis
part and he taking that in North Da-
kota. The plaintiff was represented
by Knauf & Knauf.
An order to show cause why gar
nishment action brought by Herman
Nurnberg against Harry Burgett
should not be dismissed was heard
and was disallowed. Seller & AyI-
mer represented the PLAINTIFF and
