DICKINSON HAS A
BIG MARKET DAY

DICKINSON, Dec. 2S.-Dickinson
takes a place with the greatest wheat
markets of western North Dakota this
season. Monday was a record day,
when a little over 10000 bushels OF
grain were handled by the five local
elevators and two Touring mills. Flax
was worth SI.O4 per bushel and wheat
o. cents, and conservative estimates
placed the sum total for December %
marketing in Dickinson at $4,000. OF
course it is impossible to tell just
what proportion of the days market.
ing was flax. but 10000 bushels OF
wheat at 66 cents would bring $19,SOO,
and it is known that a great many
farmers have fax and as it Is worth
more money per bushel than wheat
they are quite inclined to market
grain now which will give them the
most ready money.
December 81 was also a big grain
market day in Dickinson and the ele-
vator men were about as busy as they
could be, but they knew that If the
weather remained fair a much larger
market day was coming on Monday.
The elevator men worked Saturday
night and Sunday to get all the avail
able space possible, and they had need
TO it.
Long before daylight Monday morn
ing the grain teams were coming into
Dickinson. It is estimated that fully
100 teams arrived the night before
and had placed their horses in the
various feed barns of the city. A mum.
Der of the elevators u2loaded over 100
loads and none, as could he learned,
went below this mark.
On Tuesday, the day before Christ
a there was a little over half as
much grain marketed as on the pre-
vious day. For this date fax was
down a cent in price and wheat was
up that much.
The marketing of grain is probably
not more than half over. Some are
holding for higher prices, while 9th.
ers have but recently finished thresh-
ing and are now marketing as fast as
they can.
A few farmers still have grain to
thresh, but this is the exception rath'
er than the rule. The good weather
of the past two months has been a
godsend to the country. 1t looks now
as though the farmers would be haul
ing grain at their leisure all winter.

dead and they have been trying to

The fact that the father drinks heav.

the situation as discovered by Mrs.

pathetic. Col. Scarlet has made ar.

ZIMMERMAN HAD
FAMILY TROUBLE

MINOT, n. D., Dec. 2S.-S. thinner.
man, who found his wife and family
of five children in this city about two
weeks ago, after a long search which
.ook him all over Alberta, Montana,
and North Dakota is still having more
or less trouble in keeping peace in
the family, according to the authori-
ties who have been keeping their eye
on the family. Just who is to blame
for the difference existing between
the husband and wife Is difficult to de-
termine. Zimmerman himself is ap-
parently at a loss to know just what
to do, and his actions sometimes lead
| the authorities to wonder if he is in
his right mind.
Zimmerman's last story to the po-
lice is that his wife has been too ia
miliar with a young man who has
been paying some attention to Mrs.
Zlmmerman's daughter, and is now
talking some of taking some of the
children at least and returning to Can
ada. Mrs. Zimmerma1's daughter re.

her step-father and after She left
home Zimmerman claims that the
young man who had been keeping
company with her continued to call
/ at the house and he discovered that
the fellow had become quite interest
ed in the girls mother.
Although he talked of returning to
Canada, Zimmerman appeared before
the city commissioners recently for a
license to sell a patented knife sharp
ener and he told them that he was out
of funds and hoped to make some
money selling the sharpe1ers.
