STUTSMAN CORN
TRACTS JUDGED
One Man Has Hitched Wac
on to 100 Bushel an
Acre Star.

Jamestown. n. D.. Oct. 26.-Expert
H. F. Borchert has turned in his re-
port to the state Better Farming as
ISOLATION of the results OF his Judging
Of eleven tracts Of corn in Stutsman
and adjoining counties. The results of
the corn growing contest have been
marked and excellent.
Bigger and better crops Of corn
is the slogan which the growers have
determined upon and n man has. set
100 bushels an acre as his goal to
work to. The results Of the contest
have disclosed this:
Lowest yield 41.9 bushels an acre,
of which S6h per zen matured. High
est yield 66.16 bushels an acre. Of
which SIS per cen matured.
h percentage Of mature corn was
held down owing to the excessive wet
weather the latter part of August and
first Of September. The corn then
should have been maturing. but in
stead. h growers said. it seemed to
get greener.
Ed. Bond, Of the contestants In
Dickey county. has grown and bred a
yellow dent corn on his farm there
for t~wenty-eight years and in that
time has produced a variety which
very closely approximates the famous
Minnesota 13." The seed he
brought with him from Wisconsin
Itwenty-eight years ago and each year
since he has made his own selection
and has secured very satisfactory re-
turns. He has secured average yields
of about So or more bushels an acre
Of mature corn.
Mr.. Borchert says the fields showed
great variation. In some the number
Of ears an acre ranged from as low as
1000 to as high as $4,000 and the
methods Of planting, cultivation and
care as Well as the variety Of seed and
its terminating strength we're clearly
evidenced in the tracts of corn and
the results secured. The tests have
had high educational value to every
grower.

FELL FOUR STORIES.

Minot, n. D.. Oct. 26.-William
Chambers. a colored man giving his
age as 20 years and claiming Atlanta,
Ga. as his home. had a miraculous
escape from instant death yesterday
afternoon. when he fell from a window
in the fourth story OF the Lexington
hotel. plunging head foremost to the
street. Chambers owes his life to the
fact that he struck a number Of tele-
phone wires which broke his fall and
undoubtedly saved from instant death.
A narrow tone ledge which forms
the outer stills Of the windows runs
along the entire length of the build
Ing and 1t IL thought that while stand
ing on this ledge trying to remove one
of the screens, Chambers lost his bal
ance.
Chambers suffered a number of very
Serious injuries. His face and scalp
We're terribly cut and his right eye
was almost gouged out. The left arm
was broken near the wrist and three
fingers on the left hand were broken
and the left hip %dislocated. His nose
was crushed and his teeth were all
knocked out and the lips badly las
cerated.

LOST P%OCKETB00K
RECOVERED BY PUP
Carried it Into Store and
Later it Was Return
ed to Owner.

Pembina. y. D.. Oct. ga farmer
living near town was marking a de-
post at the Merchants bank last week.
He thought he placed his pocket book
containing about fifteen dollars in
bills and silver in his pocket. He had
on a pair of overalls and instead he
put the pocket book between his pants
and the overalls. The farmer started
for the door of the bank but as he
opened it he missed his pocket book.
II was not OIL the floor and some peo-
pie who We're in the bank passed out
about that time. He naturally sup
posed that some one of these picked up
the book. But of course could not To-
cate the party. After dinner he was
called to the store of A. D.. Cavileer
and handed the pocket book with the
contents safe. The explanation is that
a puppy dog belonging to Mr.. Cavileer
brought it in the store. The farmer
says thai he has an indistinct recollec-
ton of seeing the puppy pass in or out
of the bank when he was there. There
is a little lesson to this. 1t is one Of
the most common things for anyone
who misses OF losses anything to think
or say, somebody stole it." when per-
haps it was the puppy-or possibly
just mislaid.

AUTO DESTROYED
IN GAS tank FIRE
Fine Car of Gardar Man De-
stroyed in Most Pc
culiar Manner.

Milton. N. D.. Oct. 26.-Fire totally
destroyed the $3.50 Rambler auto
mobile of Leo Fitzmaurice. who re-
sides near Gardsr. while on his way
from Osnabrock to Crystal. The acci-
dent was caused by the ignition of the
Prest-o.lite tank The old tank had
been exchanged for u new one only a
few minutes before. and Mr.. Fitz-
maurice thought that he could save
some time by merely laying the tank
on the floor Of the front compartment
Of the car. enclosing it in the regular
brackets on the running board at an
other time. The shaking around of
the tank evidently loosened III con-
%nections with the tube leading to the
lamps and as the lights began to grow
dim Mr.. Fitzmaurice stopped h ma
chine and alighted to find the trouble.
The tonneau was dark and he lighted
a match to enable him to see. m
mediately there was a dull explosion
and quicker than 1t takes to tell It.
the front Of the car was a a of
flames. being ignited from the burn
ing stream OF gas rushing from the
disconnected tank. Nothing could be
done to check the flames. unless at the
peril of life. quick work having to be
done to even save the occupants In the
rear seat Of the automobile.

Minneapolis. October 26.-Liverpool

on Saturday and is closed before the
American markets open up for busi-
ness.
The opening in the Minneapolis
market was a trifle higher and the
market steadied fractionally but the
market met selling on the way up and
after December had touched soc and
the May 81 3-S a break of about Lee
occurred. The Chicago market was
relatively firmer than the spring whea,
markets. Winnipeg was again firm al
though big receipts are predicted for
Monday. 1t being estimated that there
will be from 1000 to $500 cars there
on Monday morning. Broomhall
cabled that the tirmness displayed by
the Liverpool market was due in some
measure to the bad reports from Aus
tralia where moisture is needed for
one day.
Minneapolis stocks of wheat increas-
ed $4,000 bushels for one day.
Weather conditions in the spring

New York. Oct. 26.-R. D.. Dunn &
company's Weekly Review Of Trade
says:
While a Bulgarian-Turkish war
causes much uneasiness abroad, its
chief effect in this country has been
first. to produce large foreign selling
OF American securities, and second to
cause large foreign buying Of Ameri-
can wheat. Every report from every
section of the country is favorable and
the general business situation is not
only very active but is entirely heal
thy. Taking it altogether there has
never been a moro remarkable uplift
In American business than hat now In
progress at a time Of foreign disturb
ance and of an important democratic
political campaign; and 1t Is notable
also that the trade and industrial ex-
pansion while testing the capacity OF
plants and railroads and the labor
supply, cause a comparatively small
amount Of friction.
While new business has slackened
in some lines of iron and steel. this is
more than compensated for by the
railroad buying. which is on n heavier
scale than at n previous time this
year. Contracts for rails just an
nounced exceed 100000 tons and the
orders already taken for 1913 estab-
llSneQ a record up TO ms nate. OCner
equipment is also in heavy demand,
with $4,000 cars placed this week and
considerably more than that amount
still pending.
Aside from the railroad require
ments the activity, as has been noted,
Is less pronounced. This Is due to the
inability to secure prompt deliveries
and the fact that most consumers Of
steel products are covered until next
April.
From every large distributing CEN
ter comes favorable reports Of the dry
goods markets. In cotton goods the
numerous orders from jobbers and the
manufacturing trades prevent the &C.
emulation that is commonly looked
for at this period. The demand for
fine and fancy cottons has improved
and q good business has been done in
dress ginghams for spring. Staple
prints and bleached cottons are quiet.
About $4,000 bales of goods have been
taken for China. India and Rcd Sea
ports. the bulk Of which consisted of
standard drills. heavy sheetings and a
few light weight goods. Business in
woolens and worsteds is claimed bet
ter than for many years. The leading
mills have all the work they q han
die for fall and spring.
The shoe factories report a demand
which brings production to the point
OF factory capacity. Leather and
hides continue very firm.
