The railroad commissioners have
during the past few weeks been using
every means at their disposal to in
duce the railroads to prepare for
promptly handling the great crop
raised in the state this season, and as
& result OF these efforts the railroads
have been moving several thousand
OF their cars into the western grain
territory The Chicago Milwaukee
and st. Paul company has between
three and four thousand grain cars
available for this work. The Chicago
and Northwestern has on sidetracks
in South Dakota about four THOUSAND
cars, and the company has put on
thirty Of its new large type locomo
tiyes and is in good shape to handle
the grain to be shipped from the lines
OF the Northwestern in South Daho-
ia.
commissioners show that the Chicago
Milwaukee and Puget Sound Railway
company has added during the current
year $500 new cars and 296 of its
largest type of locomotives to it's
system On account Of the expecta
ton OF largely increased business
the company also has added largely
to its track terminal and yard facili-
ties, so as to be able to handle the
heavy business as promptly as posi-
Bile.
The railroad commissioners say that
if the shippers and receivers of freight
will be equally forehanded in provid-
ing facilities, and will do their share
il promptly loading and unloading
cars, it will result in making a large
supply of empties available and will
greatly lessen the pressure for empty
cars.
In the near future the railroad com
missioners will issue a statement to
the public containing instructions COW
ering the ordering of cars, the prompt
loading and unloading of cars and re-
Questing shippers to try and reduce
as much as possible the full freight
time allowed for loading and the Civ

A Strange Animal.

On last Sunday while several
sportsmen of Hustontown were
enjoying a stroll in the spring
sunshine they located a strange
animal in its den. Returning
home they organized an army
that, from the report sent us, we
judge resembled General Villas
forces in the variety of wee
pans" carried. Bright and early
on Monday morning they sailed
forth to the measured beat of
the drum-a temporized affair
composed of a short stick with
which one Of the officers (they
were all oficers) beat ~rhythmical-
ly on his boot leg.
To make a long story short,
when the fierce critter came out
to defend its home, it knocked
the lone dog into a cooked hat,
put one of the officers up the
tallest tree on the ridge, while
the other two stood their ground,
one beating the drum and the
other trying to fire a rusty gun.
By an unexplained accident the
lone gunner got a bullet into the
enemy which quoted it. 1t and
the dog were then carried home,
but the animal revived during
the following night and is again
at large, and science will again
have to suffer the loss of the op-
portunity to record a new species
hitherto unknown in the wilds of
Taylor township. X. Y. z.
