An odd form Of animal contest
used TO be practiced by Office clerks
in London some years ago Ii was
known as grub racing. and nearly
every younger clerk had his stable
of racers. These worms we're bred
in nuts or apples and carefully sta
bled between two walnut shells.
They were selected by placing them
in the center Of a piece Of paper,
and the one that proved most adept
In making a speedy bee line to the
edge of the paper wds matched
against the pick of a rival stable
Some Of the fastest could not be in
duced to travel in a straight line.
In racing parlance, they bolted and
were bad betting propositions. But
when two came together that show
ed a disposition to run straight and
true the betting on the result was
lively enough to stir up the anti
gambling enthusiasts.-New York

Our former townsman, Gus
Hansch, now a resident Of Leth-
bridge, Alta, was in the city a
few days the fore part of the
week attending to some business
matters and also visitingssWith
his many friends. While here he
was a guest of his brother-in-law
Ben Hinds.s Mr.. Hansch is now
in the real estate business at
Lethbridge, and though he is
making his home in that city,
at the present time is booming
the small town of Winifred, as
short distance from Lethbridge,
of which he has recently come
into possession of the townsite.
Winifred, Gus tells The Tribune,
just started last summer when
the surrounding country COM
menced to settle up with home
steaders, and at the present
time has a population of almost
200 people. The land surround
ing it is rich in coal, natural gas
and pottery clay, land surround
and as an agricultural district
beats everything in that section
of the Canadian Northwest. The
country is fast settling up with
homesteaders, and Gus predicts
that Winfred and the surrUSdtindss
ing towns have a great future in
store for them. From here Mr..
Hansch went to Minneapolis,
but will stop here on his return
trip to Lethbridge.

TEMPORARILY
Bowbells Social and Industrial
Association Perfect Tenn
porary Organization

The meeting called at the
court room at the court house
Tuesday evening by E. E. Hart
man for the purpose of organiz-
ing the "CitiZens Social and In
dustrial Association of Bowbells"
was not very largely attended,
probably for the reason that
many Bowbells people were out
of the city at the time. All pre-
sent, however, were very en-
thusiastic about the organization,
and were Of the opinion that the
proposed organization would be a
mighty good thing for the city.
A temporary organization was
perfected and E. E. Hartman
was elected president and D. B.
Klock, secretary. and another
meeting at the same place has
been called for Tuesday evening
of next when a much larger at
tendance is expected, and at the
same time a permanent organiz-
alton will be made and officers to
serve for the ensuing year will
be elected.
The object of the association
will be the beautifying of Bow
bells in every way possible, as
explained in the last issue of The
Tribune, and all must agree that
an organization for that purpose
is just what Bowbells needs at
the present time.
A committee was appointed to
solicit new members to file their
names with the secretary, and
it is hoped that at the meeting
next Tuesday evening the court
room will be filled to its entire
capacity. Every person in the
city is invited to join.

three inches high, as otherwise
it is likely to cover the plants too
much. If the ground is soft,
that is not we'll packed, your
harrow will likely pull out a lot
of your grain and do it much
more harm than good. If you
harrow it,. examine it carefully
behind the harrow after you
start in. and you will be able to
tell readily whether enough Of
it is pulled out to do any harm.
The lever harrow is better
than the common wooden one,
of course, as you can slant the
teeth back so as not to make it
gouge too heavily. a%
The weeder is a still better
implement for the purpose on
account of having smaller teeth,
and being mounted on a truck so
that it can be set to. dig heavy
or light as the case may require.

INSTALLATION OF
REV. D. SAMSON

The formal installation of Rev.
D. Samson as minister of the
BoWbells and Westminster Pres.
byterian churches took place al
the latter church last Sunday
afternoon. There was a con.
gregation that filled the pretty
little church at Westminster.
The sermon was preached by
Rev. W. Gwilym Rees of Ken.
mare who took for his text
II Cor. "a. mot that we have
dominion over your faith, but
are helpers of your joy" The
lesson he sought to teach from
these words was that the rellgi-
Gus life was a joyous one. The
Christians face was always
radiant with smiles, the man
who always wore sore visage
had not got a sound and healthy
religion. He also pointed out
that the joyous experiences of
life far out-numbered the sad ex-
periences Of life. The true
Christian ministry was to be
helpers of each others joys.
Rev. DR.. McEwen of Portal
was to have given the charge to
the minister, but as he did not
turn up this duty was performed
by Rev. DR.. Waaler, PASTORAL
large. DR.. Waaler also acted as
moderator over the gathering.
The absence of DR.. McEwen also
threw upon Rev, Mr.. Rees the
duty of delivering the charge to
the congregation as DR.. Waaler
was to have done this. He ex-
horted them to pray for their
minister; to pay him respect; and
to peg away at their church
work.
The singing at this service
was led by a united choir
of the members from the choirs
of both churches. The service
was concluded by the Rev. D.
Samson pronouncing the benedic-
tion.

. !. !. !. UP ESTRAYS
How 1t Must Be Advertised
and Cared FOr.-The State
Law Explained

As considerable misunder-
standing exists about the estray
laws of North Dakota it is
presented shorn of all legal
phrases 80 that everyone may
know the correct method OF
procedure in such cases.
Section 1872 of the 1905 code
of North Dakota says that no
person shall take up any estray,
except in the county where he
lives, and is a householder, and
not unless the estray is in the
immediate vicinity of his resid-
ence nor can he take the animal
up between Dec. l and April l,
unless it is trespassing on his
premises or within his enclosures.
Section 1878 III. B., No. 230 of
1907 session law tells how to
advertise estrays. Each person
taking up an estray must adver-
tise it, giving full description
with marks and brands, etc. p,
inside of ten days in a weekly
newspaper in his county, or the
nearest newspaper if there is
none in his county. The law
fixes this cost at So payable in
advance. He shall file with his
county auditor a complete des-
cription of the estray "a clipping
of the newspaper notice is best,
and easy to get. and mail
another complete description. to
the commissioner of agriculture
: and labor at Bismarck, N. D., by
registered mail, and keep his
registry receipt and file it with an
affidavit of publication which
his home newspaper will give
him after the estray notice has
!; been. run the three required
insertions, with his county
auditor before appraisers can be
appointed or the estray app
raised. All this must be done
inside of ten days after he takes
the animal up or he is guilty of a
misdemeanor or liable to the
owner of the animal. There is
one exception that the estray be
apparently worthless in which
case q Juice of the peace shall
choose q free-holder and they
two choose another d disinterested
party; these three shall decide,
without pay, and if found to be
worthless, the estray shall be de-
stroyed by the man taking it up.
Section 1878. There is a state
estray paper which publishes
the notice once. This paper is
appointed by the governor and
changes occasionally. It is now

State Entomologist Says Pests
Will Invade Farther South
But not in Minnesota

St. Paul, Mimi, May 29.-
There will be no 17-year locusts
in Minnesota this year, according
to Professor Wasaburn, state
entomologist. The locusts will
invade the Southern Mississippi
valley this year and come to
Wisconsin two years from now,
but not to Minnesota.
''They really are not locusts at
ALL" Mr.. Washburn says, ''but
cicada, a smaller insect. They
take seventeen years to grow
from the egg to maturity, when
they roam the earth to the dis
gust of the fruit gardener, living
only one season, but long enough
to perpetuate their species. !"
