DON'T HIRE A NAN
ON CANADIAN SOIL

Pembina Pioneer Express: The
paragraph printed elsewhere In this is
sue telling of the arrest of prominent
farmer near Neche on the charge of
breaking the labor laws by importing
laborers from across the line. makes
us think 1t worth repeating at this time
when so many men are being hired,
some of the regulations covering this
labor question.
First, the farmer can hire any man
who comes to his farm or that he finds
in town on this side of the line. He
does not need to care where the man
comes from as far as the government lis
concerned. But on no account hire a
man who is across the line at the time
the bargain or contract is made. The
laws are very severe indeed FOR this.
Second, there is no restriction pre-
venting laboring men coming across the
line for employment. All that is need
ed for them to do is to report at the
customs office or to the immigration
agent when he arrives. He will have
no fee to pay II he Is to remain on
this side temporarily.
Al laborer who comes in as perman-
ent immigrant pays $4, If he has not
lived In Canada for year previous
otherwise there is no fee.
But, we would again repeat, that. II
is very dangerous to hire labor In
Canada to be used on this side Of the
line.

Sheldon, N. d., Aug. Sit Is Of In
'terest to the people Of Ransom county
to know that some good results are

against it, in trying to farm along the
same lines as the tilers of the heavier
soils north and west.
The following paragraph from the
official write up Of the demonstration
farm display at the recent state fair
at Grand Forks evidences something
OF what Is being accomplished.
THE exhibit from the Mcleod farm
Is Of especial interest at that farm is
located In the heart of the sand hills
in Ransom county. The problems to
be met there are difficult ones on ac-
count Of the sand. The demonstra-
ton farm there Is working out the
best methods of handling the land in
that section and trying to find the
best crop to grow. The Canadian
field peas from that place are especial
ly fine, although the whole Mcleod
exhibit is SO good that 1t Is hard to
single out any one sample. Needless
to say the good crops on the Mcleod
farm were not obtained by any easy
method Of farming. but by hard work.

JURY DECIDES MAssIER RE-
CEIvED INJURIES CAUSED
BY LACK OF CARE.

Darlington, N. D., Aug. 5.--By the
decision last evening of jury Henry
Bruening's joy ride with couple
Foster county schoolma' ans resulted
in $500 injuries to John Massier, a
farmer south of town The plaintiff
sued for $4,000, alleging that by Bruen-
ing's carelessness in handling the auto.
the horse was frightened and he was
thrown from the buggy. sustaining Sc
rious injuries TO q leg and being other
wise bruised.
The accident happened in May last
year. Massier and his wife had start
ed home, but were overtaken a short
ways from Darlington by Bruening,
who was en- route to Melville to attend
a ball game, The plaintiff claims
that on a high grade near town they
were crowded off, although no serious
trouble was encountered then. Ac-
cording to the testimony, Bruening
went on a few miles to get two school
teachers who were TO accompany him
to the ball game. one of the ladies
was allowed to run the machine. The
plaintiff alleged that when Breuning
again passed them on the road he
gave the usual sign for them to stop,
but they did not. The plaintiff
claimed the machine was turned to the
right and he thought would pass safely,
but that 1t suddenly turned to the left
and just grazed the horse. Massier
was thrown over the dashboard and
dragged some distance, seriously In
juring his leg. Massier testified that
Bruening made no effort to come to his
aid.
The defense claimed that the ma
chine was stopped and that Master
had gotten safely by before the acct
dent occurred.

WILL THE BODY OF PETRIFIED
MAN BE FOUND AT DICKINSONp

Dickinson Recorder Post: In the
Recorder Post issue of July 10, men,
ton was made of the finding of a.
fossilized human foot in this city.
The incident has caused much COM
ment and speculation, owing to the
evident genuineness Of the specimen
which many have been permitted to
examine, thus exciting their curiosi-
ty and desire for further investiga-
ton, to determine whether only a
petrified portion of the remains of a
man have been exhumed, or Ii 1t win
develop that the entire body, posi-
bly, transformed to stone. may be
found.
@. s. Cryne of Gladstone, the hiss
torian of Stark county, than whom no
one In these parts is better qualified
to speak authoritatively on such sub
jects favors us with the following
facts and theories relating to the
aforesaid, and probable further dis
covery to be made, should the owner
Of property permit the further in
vss ~ sin desired by many here.
Mr.. Cryne writes interestingly on
the subject as follows:

and pieces of petrified wood; he threw

JOINTS RAIDED
AT ENDERLIN
SEVERAL PRISONERS TAKEN. TO
LISBON TO STAND TRIAL
FOR GAMBLING AND
RooTLEGGlNG.

Sheldon, N. D., Aug. 5.--Several all
legged gambling places and booze joints
at Enderlin were raided by Sheriff
Cooper and his deputies, and as a re-
suit a number Of supposed violators
of the law were placed under arrest
The raid was the result of the work of
a detective who has been in the county
several weeks looking for attractions
of the prohibition law.
The prisoners, together with several
witnesses, were taken to Lisbon and
had a hearing before Justice Curtis
Staber and Ringheim, believed to be
the two worst offenders, were arrested
on two charges, one for conducting q
gambling room and the other for SELL
ing whiskey.
They were both acquitted OF the
charge OF gambling; Ringheim was ac-
quilted of the charge of selling
whiskey. while Staber was bound over
to the district court for violating the
prohibition law. The trial of a third
man arrested on similar charge is
being held today. Atty. c. c. Bangert
of Enderlin is defending the men.

MANY PUT IN
WINTER RYE

Minot. N. D., Aug. 5.-With an
abundance of moisture. to get the
ground into good shape, many farmers
around Minot are planning on putting
in winter rye. Seeding will start
about Sept. 4 and with ordinary con-
ditions the grain will be ready to har-
vest next July.
Those who have tried winter rye in
tlis section OF the country have had
splendid success with it and the yields
have been large. Another advantage
Of winter rye Is that the harvest
comes in the middle of the summer
and the farmer therefore gets the
money right at the time when he needs
II most.
The ground is bound to be wet and
the moisture freezing into the soil this
winter guarantees the best of grow
ing conditions for next spring.
