transplanted the first part of
June. One fellow goes ahead
and pushes a spade into the
ground, another follows and puts
a plant behind it and so on down
a row; they put them 3 feet
apart each way as a rule. Have
got 2 acres and it looks fine. We
give the cows 3 head each night
and morning, they like it better
than green corn fodder. We are
milking 9 cows and by the time
the year is up will have received
about $400 for cream. Sold some
early potatoes in Oregon City for
4 cents a pound last spring, on
the start, then down to II cents
a pound. They are sold by the
sack here, made about SIPS from
II acres and had all we wanted
for the house and still got 80
sacks in the cellar. Intend to
clear over $100 per acre on pota-
toes next year-will have more
in, too. ... ..~. .........
Take cows, chickens, pigs and
potatoes and you have got the
best combination that know of,
and that with a climate that
can't be beat, no one need be
long off easy street. i
Well, guess l had better quit
for this time, hoping you are all
enjoying the best Of health, as
we are. With best regards from
all to all, I remain,
Yours as before,
/ w, A. YEOMANS.
P. S. Am sorry for you all as I
see you have been struck by a
blizzard already yet. 4

BL0DDED CATTLE
ARRIVE At M|N01'
Arrival of Fine Stock is Initial
Step in Re-Making the
Great Northwest

,Minot, N. D., Dec 2-Tw o car
loads of cattle consisting of 81
milch COWS, thorobred bulls and
heifers, purchased in Wisconsin
by Maj. E. S. Person and J. E.
Elsberry, arrived in Minot to-
day over the 500 line.
The lot consists of twenty
three Holsfein heifers, two full
blooded registered Guernsey
bulls and twenty-seven grade
Guernsey mich COWS, The stock
comes from Whitewater Wis.,,
where the farmers have grown
wealthy through their high grade
dairying interests. Land in that
section of the country is selling
for SITS per acre and in many
intances it does not compare
with North Dakota land which
is now selling for $35 and less
per acre.
The COWS cost on an average
Of about SOS, while the heifers
cost from $25 to $35. The
thoroughbred bulls of course
cost considerably more.
One bull and five Guernsey
cows were purchased by Maj.
Person for his farm twelve miles
northwest of here, while Mr..
Elsberry purchased a number Of
of Holsteins for his dairy farm.
These will be added to his al
ready fine herd. Other farmers
purchasing cows are: H. J.
Hecht, north of the city; J. H.
Cover of Surrey; John Winn. The
Spires farm will also receive
several, while the balance will
be distributed in the vicinity of
Minot. 's> .~~s. u -:

POTATO GROWERS
LEARNED A LESSON |!
Buyer Tells Minot Paper How
Farmers Here Benefited
by Experience This Fall

Minot Independent: - The
farmers and potato buyers learn
ed something most important
about marketing potatoes in
North Dakota from this winters
experience. A prominent buyer
who brought a good many cars
over the northwest and shipped
them to points in the southeast
told the Independent man the
following things he learned this
year:
1.-THE potato growers and buy
ers learned a valuable lesson this
year, though it was a pretty
dear one for both. North Dak-
ota never produced such a big
crop of choice potatoes as was
grown this year and I actually
believe that had all the potatoes
grown in Ward County this year
have been saved, there. would
have been enough to supply the
state of North Dakota. Instead
many thousands of bushels were
frozen in the field and the farm
ers started to dig their crop so
late and were in such a hurry
to get them out of the ground,
that they did not cover them
sufficiently, hence the recent
cold snap got a good many thou
sand bushels more, which the
farmers will find is so when
they uncover the piles. Ward
county instead of shipping any
more potatoes, will actually
have to-: ship in some before
spring, Or I am badly mistaken"

YEOMANS WRITES
OF OREGON COUNTRY.
Former Burke County Man
Tells How He is Getting
Along in the Far West

O0( iA4esAy " AnA' ~A'e~A'S
friends here:
Willamette. Ore, Nov. S, 1911
Dear Friend Fred -
Thought would drop you
few lines and let you know how
things are out here; but first |
must thank you folks for the
bunch of "local news'' we re-
ceived last week. The Bowbells
Tribune has been a visitor so long
to us in the past that it seemed
like greeting an old friend when
we opened that last bundle.
Sorry to. see that the crops didn't
amount to much through differ
ent causes around Bowbells, but
gather they must be fair to good
around your ranch, and so hope
Albert and YOU got good returns
this year. We often talk and
wonder how you are making it,
but we have no regrets for leav-
ing North Dakota (as far as eli,
mate and farming are concerned.)
In fact, the regrets would be in
not coming out here long ago.
I note NJ. D. Kaser's remarks
in regard to Oregon. Guess he
is right in what he says about
fruit raising and the price of land
where he was Che didn't say
anything about having to buy
this excellent climate though, ]
but he didn't e sees much Of 0re-
gon not the places such as he
would like. It can't be done in
a hving visit unless YOU have
someone you know out here to
take you around. It wouldn't
want a fruit farm even if /: could
get one for %one-half what they
ask. They are overriding that
business to my notion, and asking
too much altogether. Hood Riv-
-er valley has certainly got a
name for apples, and it deserves
it, chad one sent from there and
it was a dandy A No. / Xxx at
that) but they raise just as good
apples right here in Clackamas
county, only they don't make a.
speciality of them, as they do
there. It is diversified farming
here little of everything and
always sure Of getting good re-
turns.
Suppose you will wonder how
we are making it; well, can
truthfully say that we can make
more from these Al 36-10O acres
iii any one year than we could
off 800 acres in North Dakota.
There are about 30 acres under
the plow, the rest orchard, pas.

The councillor grinned and twisted
his hands in enjoyment Of his CON-

Nathaniel looked and his blood
grew hot.
Il have seen such things in the
south" he said. But MOTOR white
men!"
The councillor caught him by the
arm.
They are coming!"
In the direction OF the Jail the
crowd was separating. Men crushed
back on each side. forming a narrow
aisle. even the whispering Of the
women ceased. A moment later three
men appeared In the opening between
the spectators. One OF these. who
walked between the other two, was
stripped to the waist About each
Of his naked wrists was tied a leather
thong and these thongs were held by
the mans guards. The prisoners
face was nvid; his hands were red
with blood that dripped from his lac
Grated wrists; his eyes glared malig-
nanuy and his heaving chest showed
that he had not been brought from the
log prison without a struggle.
"Ah. IT'S wittle frst!" breathed the
councillor. It's he who said his wife
should not wear short skirts"
At the edge OF the circle the prison
er hesitated and the muscles In his
arms and chest grew rigid. Those OF
the crowd nearest 10 him drew back.
Then sudden change swept over the
mans features and he walked quick
ly to the stake and kneeled before II.
The thongs about his wrist were tied
10 the straps OF the cross piece and
the whlpper took his position. As the
first lash fell. a cry burst from the
lips OF the victim. When the whip
descended again he was silent. A
curious sensation OF sickness crept
over Nathaniel as he saw the red
gashes hicken on the white flesh.
