new DAIRY DOING BUSINESS
Modern Plant Shows up Well Dur.
ing Cold Weather-Sanitation
Important Feature

The new experimental da1rylng es-
tablishment of Schelde & Madsen,
the Sanitary Milk Co., just south
west of the city is now supplying
many customers with milk and
cream. A regular morning delivery
of the lacteous fluids is made in the
city, and the owners are gradually
increasing their herd. The new
tight, warm and cleanly dairy barn
is showing up we'll this cold weather,
a marked difference from the old
fashioned, cold, manure filled and
dark stable. The two long rows of
stalls, with stanchions about four
feet apart, have already many good
animals, all facing outside, their hal
ters allowing free head play. Feed
ing time is an interesting event
First comes big ration of ensil-
age,. from the big corn silo, opening
into the feed shed adjoining the sta
BILE proper. The cattle lick up the
rich ensilage with avidity from the
long cement feed and water trough
running at the front of the line of
stalls. After this first course is
consumed their is supplied a ration
of millet, cut just before the seed
ripened; next the stock are watered,
simply by turning faucet in a pipe,
the water flowing into the feed
troughs, previously brushed out per-
fectly clean.
The water comes from a reservoir
in the second story, pumped there
by windmill, and thus the chill is
taken of, a fine thing during the
extreme cold weather when the wa
ter would otherwise be ice cold, not
conducive to milk production. A
change of diet, with cats, bran. etc.,
is given occasionally.
The barn is built tight. and COW
cred with white asbestos, and is per-
fectlya warm, tho well. ventl' ated.
The floors throughout, both passage
and stalls. is of cement, with drains
leading to q cess pool outside, for
cleanliness.
Adjacent, but not connected with
the stable, is the milk room where
the milk is taken Immediately after
milking. Here the milk is separated
and the milk and cream bottled by
machinery. There are many con-
veniences for cleanliness and sani-
tation comes first in the minds of
the owners, who have invested sew
eral thousand dollars in improve
ments for this new Jamestown dairy.
However, they are confident that the
change from the old one crop, wheat
habit, will be better paying prop
osition in the end.

North Dakota, October term, 1911.
Anton Fried, Plaintiff and Res
pondent VS.. N. J. Olson, Fred Olson
and Robert Olson, co-partners as N.
J. Olson & Sons, defendants and ap-
pellants.
In an action to recover for al
legged conversion of grain upon
which plaintiff claims to hold an un-
satisfied seed lien; the trial court,
at the conclusion of the testimony
denied defendants motion for d.
rected verdict and subsequently
granted a like motion in plaintiff g
favor. Held, not error as there is
no substantial conflict in the testi-
mony and the evidence sufficiently
established each of the essential
facts emitting plaintiff to recover.
2. There is no direct evidence
that the grain in controversy was
grown from the identical seed sold
by plaintiff, but in the absence of
proof to the contrary, and none ap-
pears in the record, such fact will
be presumed in view Of the provis-
ion of Section 9443 Penal Code
which makes it a misdemeanor for
the vendee of seed grain to use the
same for any purpose other than the
purposes agreed upon at the time he
purchased it.
8 The presumption that person
is innocent of crime or wrong is ex-
pressly recognized by our code of
civil procedure, Section 1917 R. c..
and by Section 1914 it is provided
that unless controverted the jury
are bound to find according to the
presumption. -
4 Trial courts are vested with a
broad discretion in permitting or re-
fusing to permit parties to reopen
their case for the purpose of intro
ducing further proof and their rul-
ings on such motions will not be dis
turbed where there is not a clear a.
buse in the exercise of such discre-
tion.
Plaintiffs Testimony as to the
making of demand on the defendant
for the grain in controversy and as
to the market value thereof at the

held competent and suhicientt IN the
absence of any showing to the con-
trary.

FASCINATION Of A
RAILROAD TRAIN
Does it Lie in Spirit of Change or
Sense of Motion?

What is there that fascinates most
Of us in the sight of railroad train?
Mr.. Filson Young, in the London,
England, Saturday Review, finds
chat there is in the railway "a fascin-
alton that begins with earliest child
hood and with people who
retain an agreeable curiosity a.
bout life, never quite ceases. Is it
an inheritance from the wonder of a
century age when they seemed to
revolutionize human life, or is it
something more subtle and inher-
ent in themselves?
In this country the interest in the
locomotive is undoubtedly due in a
large part to the wonder which the
coming of the railroad excited. For
the phenomenon is not one of Gen.
tury ago. 1t is part of the experience
of a generation now living. Every
little while we hear Of some people
from interior sections who have nev-
er seen railroad train. In Oregon
recently, there died a woman of 81
years, who followed on foot prairie
! schooner all the way from Iowa to
the Pacific coast. Many of the ear
ly settlers of the western states came
from Europe through New York via
the Erie canal and the Great Lakes.
To them, the railroad was an un-
known quantity for years after they
settled here.
But, undoubtedly great measure
| of the subtle attraction of the rail-
| road train lies in the fact that it en-
bodies the spirit of change, and by
it we can today leave the gigantic
terminal in the city on the Great
Lakes and in ~ hours stand upon
the shores of the Pacific ocean, cross
ing seven states in the short three
days and seeing, in fleeing glance,
the life of literally millions of peo-
pie. ~ 49,,
The admiration and wonder ex-
Ncited by railroad train has teen
seen at it's topmost pitch, recently
at the city Office of the Northern Pa
ci1ic in Saint Paul, where minia-
ture model Of the deluxe North
Coast Limited made entirely out of
sugar, has been on display to the
public. Over IS feet long and COM
plete down to the details of the me-
chanism of the locomotive, including
an electric headlight, rails, ties, tele-
graph poles, switches and signals,
this model has been the admiration
of every beholder. Built by Fred
Kaul, head cook at the Saint Paul
bakery shop of the Northern Pacific,
the train is striking example of the
versatility of the bakers art. 1t re-
quired Mr.. Kaul's time for a full
week to construct it. This model will
be exhibited at the land shows to be
held this fall in New York, Omaha,
| St. Paul and elsewhere. This is one
of the most unique methods yet a.
dopted by railroad in advertising,
and the model train is boost, not
only for the superb North Coast Linn
tied train which it represents, but
also for the Dining Car Department
of the road, which has in the last
few years achieved a countrywide
reputation for excellence.

With about a hundred witnesses

bachelor and large land owner OF Per-

the estate Manning filed suit as guar

acres of land in Perry township which
Craner had conveyed to John Franklin
and wife. This property was convey
ed over a year or so ago but did not
become known as the deed was not

reasons for placing Craner under
guardianship.

NADIA are down. Reliably informed

tend protection to the American citi-
Zens mentioned in your telegram and
the American consul at Ensenada has
been instructed by telegraph to inves-

ALBERT IS HON0RED
Former Local Man Dean of

Charles S. Albert who has just been

Richmond man who has risen rapidly
in the ranks of the newspaper profess

New York Worlds bureau and has
been for some time.
The Washington newspapers, in
Guiding the Post, Star, Herald and

of the newspaper correspondents,
speak in special praise of Mr.. Albert
Richmond people remember Charley
Albert best when he was connected
with the Western Union telegraph Of
fee as an operator. He was a star"
in his profession of that day as he
is in the newspaper field and his pop
ularity in Richmond was pronounced.
Strange to say he did not get even a
glimpse into the newspaper business
Until he left Indiana for bigger fields,
but for many years he has been re-
garded as one of the bright and shin
ing lights on the Worlds formidable
staff. That his popularity among the

marked may be indidIted by his
choice as chairman of the press gal
leries committee. In letter to

sociates in Washington is one he ap-
preciates more than any past achieve
