RAILROAD BOYS WILL
INSIST ON FAIk PLAY
New Surrey-Fargo Line Completed
and Some Will Ask to Be Trans
.erred to New Division.

When the new Surrey-Fargo line
is completed, within a few weeks,
great deal of the freight traffic
that is now conducted on the line in
present use, will be diverted to the
new road, because Of the shorter
haul to the cities. The Great North
ern has provided the new line with
side tracks at the various stations
capable of handling LOO cars and it
is believed by the railroad boys that
the company intends to install the
mammoth super heater engines cap
able of pulling 100 cars each. The
new line is provided with the best
ninety pound steel, the cuts and fills
are so we'll executed that the line will
be simply perfect. Between Minot
and Fargo, there is one stretch with
scarcely a curve. 1t is. figured that
the gross earnings of some of the
large trains will be as much as $500
a day. g. ..a. ..... .-.A .
The various railway organizations
have adopted clauses which provide
that where the company by whom
they are employed builds parallel
lines thru a territory that cuts into
the BUSINESS of the other. line, the
employees shall be given an oppor
tunity to be transferred to that new
line in a manner proportionate to
the .ork that is diverted. If :his
arrangement prevails with the new
surreylNinot cut-off, the Minot
employees will still continue to make
this city their headquarters.
"A meeting Of the general commit.
tee will be held at st. Paul soon.

ter, Eggs and Cream since Apr. 1

The Henningsen Creamery Co.,
which located in this city April 1,
has distributed $4,000 among the
farmers of this territory for butter,
eggs and cream since that time. We
ask the question, Are you getting
your share of the money!" Many a
farmer has grown rich in North Dar
.!ota from the sale of just these pro-
ducts and you can get your share
Of the money that is awaiting you.
if you only will.
H. D. Williams, the manager Of the
Minot concern, is a live booster for
the dairy BUSINESS The farmers are
being encouraged to invest in more
dairy cows. Mr.. Williams states that
the house will start buying poultry
within a short time and this will
be another source of wealth for the
North Dakota farmer. MT. Williams
will be disappointed fl the Minot
house does not buy more than 1OO,-
MOO pounds of poultry the coming
fall A speciality will be made of tur-
keys. The farmers are being encour-
aged right now to raise turkeys,
which always command fancy price.
Mr. Williams was in charge Of the
Towner branch last fall when 25,OoO
pounds of turkeys were bought and
shipped out of the state.
Last week 10000 pounds of fine hut
ter were shipped west to Seattle.
This was probably the greatest hut
ter shipment that was ever made out
cf Minot. The company has spent
more than $4,000 for cream since
Apr. 1 and from 1000 to 1900 pounds
of butter are being made a day at
the company's Minot creamery. The
churn is kept going night and day
and soon third butter maker will
be employed. Two car loads of eggs
nave been handled week on Lne aV-
erage. The company has a Minot pay
roll of $500 month, twelve employees
being taken care Of. The company is
raying within a cent of the Egrn
market for tutter fat.
The business is growing at such a
rate, that the company is planning
on erecting a large cold storage plant
along the G. n. right Of way early
in the spring, consisting Of two
stories and basement, with the cream
