new Church
IS DEDICATED

ELGIN, N. D., Oct. 1s.-Sunday was
certainly a big and busy day In
church circles in Elgin. On that day
tho big German Lutheran church,
which has been completed for some
time, was dedicated. The members
and friends of the congregation be-
gan arriving early and it is estimated
that between four and five hundred
people were present and took part in
the exercises. Rev. Lundgrebe, the
local pastor. had charge of the serv'
ices, assisted by Rev. Teuber of Hoss'
mass, S. D. Their church building
is one Of the largest and one of the
neatest appearing, both inside and
outside, in this section of the state
and Elgin is proud to have such an
organization. The pastor, Rev. Lund-
grebe, has only been in charge
few months, but during this time has
shown himself capable and competent
and under his direction and leader
ship the work in this line is prog
ressing rapidly and good results are
being obtained.

SIUISMAN COUNTY SHOWS What
Can BE- DONE With DAIRY|NG

shown a remarkable increase. April
showed the SHIPMENTS of ESQ gallons of
cream. This doubled the next month
and again doubled in quantity in the
month following. For the last four
months that single station has sent
out an average in excess of thousand
gallons of cream month.
Owing to the fact that shippers be-
lieve that they can secure from SOC
to $3.50 more a can by shipping than
by patronizing their local creamery,
coupled with very low cypress rate,
the cream shipping business has de-
veloped very rapidly and remarkably
A 10-gallon can of cream, weighing
approximately IS pounds, is carried
by the express companies from here
to the Twin Cities for 47c and the
can returned free Of charge. The ex-
press rate upon similar shipment 80
miles into jamestown, for instance, is
but 19c, with return of can free of
charge.
The future of Stutsman county de.
ponds to large extent upon the dairy.
1t has been fully demonstrated this
year not only that corn is profitable
crop but that dairying produces money
at every season of the year and in
sufficient amounts to make the enter.
prise highly beneficial and worth
while. Less of the element of chance
enters into the game of dairying than
it does in the problem of exclusive
grain raising and the cash returns are
spread over the year in a way that
materially benefit in reducing store
bills and keeping the running expenses
that under single crop system will
amount to such large proportions be-
fore the end of the crop season.

SAYS HUSBAND Was
insane when he SOLD
HIS SECTION Of Land

MANNING, y. D., Oct. 1S.-Declara'
ton that her husband was insane
when he sold a section Of land in
Dunn county. and that he also was
insane at the time he proved up on
a homestead, is the claim Of Mrs.
H. l.. Blachley of Cedar Rapids. Ia,
in an action which she has started
in the district court here to regain
possession of the property. The sale
was made in 1901 by Mr.. Blachley
without any mention being made OF
Mrs. Blachley. from whom he has
been separated since 1894, when ne
left her at a hotel in Bowdle, S. D..
His death occurred in the Iowa asylum
for the insane in 1910 and he had been
confined there since 1902, just a short
time after the sale of the property
here.
Mrs. Blachley claims that after his
disappearance in 1894 that she had
been unable to secure any definite
trace of him, except that on one occa'
sion she learned that he was In
Texas, and that later he was in
North Dakota. She came to Dickin-
son several years after his disappear
ance and tried to get out to his
claim in this county, but was unable
to do so at that time.
George Frye and A. n. Jeffries were
the original purchasers of the prop
erty, and they later sold to the Da-
kota Land & Cattle company. The

ancient skull
IS UNEARIhED

PIERRE. S. D., Oct. 1S.-In sinking
the large we'll at the waterworks, to
greater depth here the dredge
brought a skull of what is claimed
to be water buffalo" Such ami.
mails are now only to be found in
the warm countries, such AS the Phil
lippines, where they are numerous
and are used as animals Of burden.
1t is claimed that number of SIM
liar skulls were taken out of the
river silt at the time of sinking the
caissons on the railway bridge here.
The skull taken out yesterday in the
we'll was at depth of about % feet.
and had evidently lain in the silt at
that place for centuries, as the river
channel has been along the west
shore ever since white men have had
knowledge of this country, with large
trees growing on the banks this side
at the time of their coming.

The following article which ap
peared in the Jamestown Daily Cap
ital should be read with interest by
every resident of the state, as the
salient features of the story are ap'
plicable to every county in the state:
Stutsman county is annually ship
ping without it's borders almost $780,
900 worth of cream beside supplying
three creameries.
This is estimated fully twice the
amount of revenue derived from
cream shipments to distant central
izer a year ago.
In the last six months the county
has sent to other creamertes than
those in jamestown, Medina and
Streeter, over $4,000 worth of cream.
If there are any who believe that
there is no money in "fussing" with
cows let them consider the following
facts. Here is summary OF the
value Of cream shipments from the
following localities in Stutsman coun-

Medina was shut down for general
repairs and overhaling and the cream
shipments therefor were very large,
aggregating about $50 cans of cream
in April and May. But so soon was
the creamery in operation that this
was decreased very largely, but when
the creamery began to grade cream
and pay a bonus for sweet, high grade
