Mrs. Caroline Murray. OF Los An
geles, Cal, mother of Mrs. Elizabeth
Murray Newman Coffin. the adopted
daughter Of Father l.. S. Coffin. OF
Fort Dodge. and the adoption of whom
recently caused the court to appoint
q guardian for tine aged man, has ad-
dressed a communication to the news
papers of the state, in which she eX-
nlains her connection with Mr.. COT
fin. Mrs. Murray incidentally criti-
cizes the newspapers because they
printed the testimony offered in the
court hearing. Her statement foliows:
Dear Sir: The newspaper reports
which we have seen Of the Ii ;. Co1tln
guardianship case at Fort Dodge, Iowa,
have contained 90 little truth that we
feel certain that you will be more than
willing to give space to a simple state
ment from me of such facts concerning
the matter which do know.
NV family and I are utterly dlsin-

in It. not even to the extent Of being
represented by a lawyer or friend who
would have protected us from false

erroneous impressions would be AIS

have been given out, you Will surely

The adoption Of my daughter. Eliza

a man whose great works and hisn
standing had been we'll known to us
for many years. was suggested by Dr.
Coffin more than eighteen months ago.
He wrote, asking my consent and ad-
vice. I gave my consent by letter, ana
also in legal form, thinking that the
noble plans he had in view along set
Element lines would fulfill the am
billions of my daughter for just such
public work, and would add to the
happiness and usefulness of both.
All steps Naken9Merc at the initial
suggestion of Father Coffin. whose en-
thusasm In the matter was not I'M
parted to him by his adopted daughter,
but was the result of long bordering
over cherished ambition. This he
felt was soon to be fulfilled by one who
shared his enthusiasm, and who now
shared his name.
None of these facts, so easily ascer-
tainable and so true, were brought out
at the trial, according to the news dis

NORTH DAKOTA
hogs INCREASING
THE LARGEST SHIPMENTS NOW.
SEEN FROM THE TWO
DAkOTAS.

jamestown, N. D., June 28.-E. E.
Strong of Pingree returned Thursday
from a trip to South st. Paul, where
he took a carload of hogs for market.
He realized $3.50 a hundred in their
sale. The hog market, he says. is
strong, and there is much encourage
ment for farmers of North Dakota to
go more extensively into the growing.
of hogs than heretofore.
AS an indication of the increase in
the receipts of hogs at South st, Paul,
there were received at that market on
Monday of this week, over 1900 hogs,
most of them being from the two Da-
kotas, n the greater part from North
Dakota. Considering the fact, that only
a few years ago the receipts of hogs
from North Dakota were very light,
the increase as seen from the present
daily receipts is certainly gratifying.
and shows that North Dakota farmers
are raising more pork each year.
Mr.. Strong bought most of these
hogs from the vicinity of Pingree,
sman county, .and a number of
them he raised himself. The pigs were
fed on steamed barley, principally. He
says that North Dakota grain fed hogs
command a higher price than the
heavy rough hogs of more southern
states. Every farmer, he declares. can
alse pigs each year, and have a good
paying proposition growing up on his
farm. The young pigs can be weaned
when four weeks old, and within six
weeks will be able to drink water and
eat grain, but they are much better off
If milk can be fed to them for a couple
of weeks after weaving. North Dako-
ia hogs make the sweetest pork in the
world, and the average weight which
the best price is from 225.
to ESQ pounds. The carload OF hogs
marketed Monday by Mr.. Strong aver
aged 253 pounds.
