LARGE ACREAGE
IS Being SOWN
]. r. GILsREATH RETURNS FROM
TRIP THROUGH SOUTHERN
HALF OF MORTON
COUNTY.

Bismarck, N. d., May 16.-J. R.
Gilbreath of Minneapolis, a real estate
dealer who formerly resided in Man
dan, has been spending a few days
in this vicinity looking after business
affairs, and incidentally visiting his
father, Commissioner of Agriculture
and Labor w. G. Gilbreath. Mr.. Gil
breath enjoyed a trip through Morton
county while in this section.
AN immense acreage is being sown
in southern Morton county" said he,
and this is largely due to the fact
that the railroad is selling it's lands
with the provisions that the buyers
break up a certain amount each year.
However, in that section the farmers
are not doing rs good farming as fur
Their north in the county.
Much better farming is being done,
especially southwest of Mandan, where
everything is in fine condition. / new
er saw the soil in such excellent shape
as it is this year. The farmers are
evidently taking advantage Of better
farming advices.
Many new gasoline blowing outfits
are making their appearance in the
county, at least fifteen new outfits
having been purchased by farmers in
the south half Of the county. Condi-
tons are certainly appearing favor
able this year."
Mr.. Gilbreath departed for Mime
apoIis IN No. 4 Wednesday morning.

LIVELY LITTLE LAMB
HAS FIVE LONG LEGS.

New England Herald: A lively and
healthy lamb with five perfectly form
ed legs is a freak Of nature at the
Victor Fredericks ranch eight miles
west of New England. The lamb was
born this week and or Wednesday the
little freak was hopping and skipping
around as lively as a cricket.
The fifth leg, which seems to be in
good proportion, with perfectly formed
joints and hoof, is located on the
lambs shoulders at the back and on
top Of the neck. Mr.. Fredericks ex-
amined the little animal carefully and
says that the knee and ankle joints
Of the extra leg are in good working
condition but have no work to do. The
mother Of the little lamb is as proud
as can be of her freak offspring and
will not allow it out of her sight for
a minute.
Mr.. Fredericks has a band Of 600
ewes and about 400 spring lambs. He
has been in the sheep business for
fifteen years and says he never saw
anything in Sleeps clothing that look
ed like the new arrival at his ranch.
He hopes the animal will live and is
going to see that it has the very best
of care.

OF HAIR IS ACCEPTED AS
The FIRST INDICATION OF Old AGE

thin, wispy hair does not necessarily indi-
cate approaching old age. Instead it Is
more often traceab1e to the hair destroying
effect OF drandruf and hence becomes 4
matter OF mere personal neglect.
Loss of hair and approaching badness
are not considered by the majority of
people with sufficient seriousness. Both
are looked upon as inevitable when as q
matter of fact they are unnecessary, There
is no more need Of becoming bald or
having thin scraggy locks at sixty than
there is ut sixteen.
Proper and intelligent care Of the hair
lis all there is to 1t. Fog the removal of
dandruh, to check hair loss and stop the
itching Newbro's Herpicide is the logical
remedy. Its use is attended with remark
able results and much personal satisfac-
tion.
