Amigo, Wis, and James A. Holo Of
Ellsworth.
The question involved In the Nugent
case was that the defendant was not
II years old nor the head of a family
at n time of making entry. Nugent
was II years of age. and he attempted
to show he was the head of a family
by introducing testimony that he was
supporting his sister.
The Swisher case is Of especial
interest for the reason that the de-
PENDANT made proof, secured a loan
on the receivers receipt and finally
sold it to DR.. Watson. SWisher's pres
ent whereabouts is now unknown. e.
r. Brownson of Williston who made
the loan on the land, and DR.. Watson
Of Amigo, Wis, who purchased the
land and assumed the mortgage, are
defending the action in order to pro-
tect themselves. Patent was withheld
on information to the effect that the
entryman had not raised on the land
and did not make entry for the pur-
pose of making it his home.

Will Raise Holstains

Darcy, N. D, May 22,-The farmers
around Leal have got the. right idea
about stock. . On Wednesday of last
week the State bank, of Leal shipped
in a car of Holstein heifers and they
were sold to the farmers in that neigh
borhood at cost, the bank not desiring
to make any money on the deal, butte
encourage the raising of better stock
by the farmers. Burl Carr purchased
two head and Howard Wilson two
head, other farmers of the neighhor-
hood also buying. Harry Green was
among the number and purchased six
head. This is a progressive step on
the part of the farmers of that neigh
borflood and shows that they are alive
TO their best interests.

Northern Pacific where railroad facili-
ties are not so favorable for COMPARE
son with other institutions of the kind.
Despite this fact the Ashley cream
cry paid out for cream during. the
month of April the amount of S.
$3.50. This especially J.. good when
1t is recalled that figures We're. given
for the amount paid out for cream by
the Medina creamery, during the same
month, which was $3,131.77. Medina
is on the main line of the N. P. with
several trains each way daily.
The showing made by the Ashley
creamery is most pleasing to the
people of this town and to the owners
of that institution.
