Burmese Tartar Woojno.

Wooing as done among Burmese Tar
tar tribes is as simple as it is idyllic.
On the first day of winter the tribe
holds a great feast at which all the mar
riageable girls gather and listen to the
music made by the bachelors, who sit
under the "desire tree" and play their
favOrite instruments. As the maiden
he loves passes him a youth will play
louder and more feelingly. If she ig-
nores and passes on he knows she will
have none Of him. II she steps up to
him and lays a flower upon his instru-
ment he jumps up, takes her by the
hand, taking care not to drop the 1ow-
or, and off they wander.-Argonaut.

WILLIE LIKES DOWN SOUTH
TELLS ALL ABOUT OzARks

Croker. No.. January %. 1913.
To the Dickinson PRESS.
Dickinson. N. D..
Dear Editor:
To my many friends who asked me to
give them some information about the
Ozarks, l thought l could reach them
better through the PRESS than writing
to them all.
My father and l landed in the Ozarks
of Missouri. January 22nd. and stopped
off at a nice little town. Croker. 1t is
q 6ne town of about 900 people. 1t has
tive banks and several large business
buildings. Freight and mail is received
over the Frisco for about twenty five
different point in the interior from this
place. The Ozar Ks look rough to a man
coming from the north, but the longer
l stay the better I like it.
There are better opportunities here
than there are in the north. Good water
and plenty of wood for fuel and one of
the best stock and poultry countrys l
ever saw. We bought an eighty acre
farm one and one half miles from Crock
er, through the Hancock Realty Co.,
we'll improved, a fine orchard of about
five acres, consisting of apples. peaches,
pears. plums. grapes and berries..of all
kinds. We expect to get moved OF the
farm by February 1st.
There has not been a bad day since l
have been here-not cold enough for an
over coat. As l was going to the farm
yesterday l saw q bunch of young chicks
about three days old and they didn't
have any shoes on either. How is that
for the Ozarks?
There is good hunting and fishing.
The game consists of wild turkey quail,
rabbit, squirrel. oppossum and raccoon.
will give you q few prices on stock
and poultry. Chickens 9.cents alive.
turkeys is cents. geese and ducks -.
cents. Nearly all the poultry is put on
the St. Louis market and all alive.
Horses from SIS to $3.50, cattle from 3K
to J cents owing to the quality. hogs
fat 7 cents. mules 5000 to $500 a team.
think this is the place for the poor
as we'll as for the rich.
Yours very truly,
Willie Moore.

Tanning Rabbit Skins.

To tan rabbit skins with the fur on
lay the skin on a smooth board. the
fur side undermost. and fasten it
down with tacks. Wash it over first
with a solution of salt and water. then
dissolve two and a half ounces of alum
in one pint Of warm water and with a
sponge dipped in the solution moisten
the surface all over. Repeat this op.
GRAFTON every four or five hours for
three days. When the skin is quite
dry take out the tacks and. rolling it
loosely the long way, the hair inside.
draw it quickly through a large smooth
ring until it is quite soft, then roll it
the contrary way Of the skin and re:
peat the operation. Skins thus pre-
pared are useful for many domestic
purposes.-London Mail.

20 TUBERCULAR CATTLE
KILLED. AT HETTlNGER

Adams County Record: Dr.. W. M.
Kreuziger of Bowman. assistant state
veterinarian. and DR.. C.. A. Rapp Of
Bismarck. federal inspector. were busy
last week slauehterine the twenty head
of cattle that were found to be tubercu.
lar as a result of tests made a few
weeks ago by DR.. Kreuziger. The ami
mails were being slaughtered at the
slaughter house just east of town and a
large number of people were attracted
there by a curiosity to see"-the visible
evidence of tuberculosis in the animals
that we're being destroyed. There was
indeed plenty of this evidence and an
inspection of one of these diseased or
gans is far from being pleasing.
The twenty head that were destroyed
represent the number of tubercular cat
tie that we're found out of a total of
about 200 head that were tested. In
other words, about ten per cent of the
cattle of this section of the state are
tubercular, judging by the tests thus far
made.
The animals that were killed +
owned as follows: Rev. G. N. Keni-
ston. 3 head, o. C. Berglund /. j. o.
mundson 1. Peer CarIin /. W. j. Carlin
2. Albert Goplin 1. C. A. Golden 2, O.
B. Severson 1. fl. j. Good 7, Expert
ment Station 1.
The state will pay for the above cattle
at the rate of twenty five dollars a head
for those two year old and over and ff-
teen dollars a head fol those under that
age. As bovine tuberculosis may be
transmitted to human beings through
milk, cream or butter. the agitation
over the testing and consequent slaugh-
ter. caused the VILLAGE council to meet
last evening and pass an ordinance pro-
hibiting the sale of milk. cream or but
ter in the village where the party offer
ing such products for sale is unable to
show that they came from a tested herd
or that they were Pasteurized.

In a Perfume Factory.

Musk is perhaps the most valuable
and delightful Of all perfumes. yet the
refiner, as he opens the musk pods.
must wea thick cloths over mouth
and nostrils, so repulsive is the door
that the pods emit. Indeed this odor
inhaled for any length of time causes
nosebleed.
Civet, karagulinc and ambergris have
in small quantities a delicious perfume.
but in large quantities they smell so
abominally as to give the worker
nausea.
The hawthorn blossom is d~elicately
sweet, and perfumers prize it highly.

considers that the bankers conference
