Fred Southland Flies Against
Directions, of Instructors
and Meets Death

Minot, N. d., May 235-A wire
received in Minot today from
Xenia, Ohio, announces the
death of Fred j. Southland, for.
merly of Williston and well
known in this city.
Mr.. Southard met death by
falling 100 feet from an aerop-
lane which he had just purchas-
ed from the Wright Brothers.
The accident occurred at the
Wright aviation field near
Osborn early yesterday morning.
Southland obtained the keys to
the hanger after he had been re-
fused permission to take the
aeroplane out without further
experience. He fell just six
minutes after he began his first
flight alone.
Fred J. Southard came to
Williston about six years ago,
where he engaged in the real
estate and land business. About
a year ago he moved to Mimi
eapolis. He had been interested
in aviation for some time and
several weeks ago he went east
where he purchased the aerop-
lane from the Wright Brothers.

AFTER 19 YEARS
IN STATES PRISON
Interesting Article in the Re-
.hector Regarding Freeing
of James Kelly

Thursday, May 9, James Kelly
who was sentenced almost q
years ago for life Imprisonment
for murder in the first degree,
walked from the gates Of the
state prison a free man.. The
state board of pardons commuted
his sentence to 26 years, and with
his good time off his term ex.
pired this week. He was sent
up from Mayville for the alleged
murder of a policeman. Con-
cerning his freedom, the Reflect
or, magazine published by the
inmates Of the prison, says:
Nineteen years and fou r
months ago in the city of May
vile, N. D., man lost his life
and two transients were arrested,
and upon circumstantial evidence
they were convicted and sent
enced to life in prison. After
nine years one of them succeeded
through his slick tongue and pet
ting ways to the officers in gain
ing a pardon, but the other,
whose name we do not feel in
duty bound to use, had to stay,
but after his stay of 10 years he
still maintains his innocence, and
on Thursday of this week he
stepped out into the world a free
man. Now the question is:
Who is guilty of the murder in
Mayville? Was it either one of
these men, or some one else?
We are not able to say neither
are you, so let us wish him God
speed and give him the benefit
Of the doubt, and. believe him

are progressive candidates in the

COMPARATIVE VALUE OF COT-

els it a fair exchange between cot

If the seed and meal are compared
on the basis of their fertilizer val
ues, then one pound of cottonseed
meal is about equal to two pounds
Of cottOnseed, or SIS a ton for seed
is about equivalent to $36 ton for
meal.
If they are compared on the ba-
sis of their feeding values, then one
pound OF cottonseed meal is about
equivalent to 1-6 pounds of seed,
or $18 ton for seed is about the
same as $3.50 for ton of meal.
In comparing these values, how
ever, several additional facts must
be considered. The cost of hauling
the seed to market should be de-

it.

Rye will furnish the earliest green
feed because it can be pastured and
is usually ready as soon as the
grouna is dry enough for the cattle
to coupon it. 1t can be used from
this time continuously until it gets
fairly well matured when the COWS
will not consume large quantities of
it. 1t is also possible to get some
fall pasture if sown early. Wheat
can be used in the place Of rye.
Oats makes an excellent soiling
crop and can be made to follow the
rye in feeding period. 1t should be
sOwn as early as the ground can be
gotten into shape. One sowing will
be in good condition for feeding for
about ten days. If three sowings
are made ten days apart, the feed
ing can be extended over a period
Of twenty to twenty-five days. If
more is sown than is needed, it can
be made into hay of good quality.
If the Canada field pea is sown with
the oats, it makes a more balanced
ration.

price actually received; and the cost
OF hauling the meal to the farm
must be added to show the net cost
OF the meal. On the other hand, cot
tonseed meal is more convenient to
handle as fertilizer, and the plant
foods 1t contain are more readily
available. When used as feed, a.
larger amount of nutrients may be
fed Of the meal than Of the seed,
because when a large amount of
seed is fed, the excess of oil is apt
to disturb digestion and cause scour-
ing Of the animal. It would, there
fore, appear that SIS to $40 ton
for seed is fair price, when meal
is sold for $27 ton, if we judge by
their fertilizing and feeding values;
but it does not follow that SIS to
$40 is all the mills can afford to pay
for them. This will depend on the
price Of oil as much or more than
on the price at which they sell the
meal. The oil is worth nothing for
fertilizer, and while it is worth
something for feed, there is more of
this than is needed to balance the
ration. There is no reason, how
ever, why the farmer should give the
oil to oil mills for less than it's real
value, because it happens to be Of
no value as a fertilizer and he can
not use it economically as a feed.
The oil mills in paying $18 to $40 for
cotton seed may be paying all they
can afford, but the point we wish to
make is that the price Of seed should
be based on the price Of oil as well
as on the price OF meal and hulls-

countrymen living in level regions
should preferably work with ami
mails of the Percheron, C1ydesdale
or Belgian breeds, while those liv-
ing in rough, billy districts where
the roads are not all that could be
desired should select brood-mares

for the basis Of their breeding oper-
atoms: Community corporations is
one of the fundamentals for really
successful h0rse-raising operations
in q definite locality A neighbor-.
hood N which animals Of one breed
predominant and where a good stall
lion is used can readily obtain SO
to SIS more per head for their
horses as compared with a region
where conglomerate Of the vari-
Gus breeds exists. Isn't that true?
The locality that produces one dis
tinct type Of colts attracts the horse
buyers, because they are able to Sc
cure carload of animals of uni
form character in one place, instead
of having to ride around the cOun-
try for several days rounding up the
horses. AS a result, the dealers will
.1ngly pay a higher price for the
horses or colts raised in one com
munity. Cooperative se-breeding
benefits the farmer in so far 'as he
is able to unite with a number of his
neighbors in the purchase of a pure
bred sire. This male may be used
on the farm mares of his owners in
addition TO his being employed in
public service.
Pure-bred or grade yearling colts
will sell for upward Of $3.50, and
some Of them bring as high as $500.
Even though the first year of
colts life is the most expensive from
the standpoint of care and mainten-
ance, still the farmer who desires
to quickly convert his colt crop into
money can advantageously sell his
youngsters at such prices. Of course,
each year that the horse remains on
the farnl-up to the time he attains
maturity-means q material increase
in his value, so that the farmer who
is disposed to retain his animals and
sell them as broken and mature
horses realizes the maximum profit
from such operations. The man
who raises his own work-stock in
consequence of keeping plenty of
brOOdmares is ahead an amount
equal to the difference in the price
Of mature animals of good breeding
and the expenses of raising them.
Rigid stallion laws in the Middle
West have, almost accomplished the
overthrow of the scrub and mongrel
stallion, so that the farmer no long
er has to contend with this menace
or temptation. 1t is all a question
of his approaching the value Of the
brood-mare both from the stand
point Of a colt-producer and as
profitable work-animal. The farmer
can readily obtain good mares and
the service of the right type of stall
lion, and it seems as though it is up
to him to get busy if he desires to
realize the maximum income from
his wOrk-animals. furthermore, the
psychological effect of association
with improved live stock will uIti-
mately be apparent in his utilization
of better methods and improved
farm practices.
