PART OF STATE

Mott, N. D., Sept. 26.-The state
railway commission were in Mott yes
terday OF their return from New Eng
land, where they had been inspecting
railway stations on the branch of the
Milwaukee road west of Mott. They
were accompanied by the superintend-

built at that town.
On their return to Mott they were
met by several of the business men
here and held a consultation as to the
needs of h town in the way of i'm
proVement Of railroad facilities which
are not numerous at this time, as Mott
is one of the leading railroad centers
of the western part Of the state.
Before leaving here Secretary Cush-
ing Of the commission said that the
commissioners were we'll pleased with
the conditions as they found them on
the branches Of the N. P. and the Mil
waukee leading into Mott, and that
they were also highly pleased with the
courtesies extended them by the bust
ness men Of Mott and at other towns
where they had stopped to hear com
plants.
From here they returned to Bis
marck and will make an inspection
next week of all the towns on the
main line Of the Milwaukee through

Mott, N. D., Sept. 26.-Probably the
Oldest veteran in the Northern Pacific
railroad service in the northwest 10
Tom Hatton, aged 65 years, who is one
Of the conductors on the passenger
train from Mott to Mandan. Old Tom
says he has been In the railroad sery-
ice for thirty 4eight years in this part
of the country, and that he was. in the
service six years before he came out
here, n he is still punching tickets and
thelping the ladies off the cars at the
little country stations along his line
with the same ~gallantry as he did years
iago.
He often teals his passengers of the
time when, Jesse James and the Young
er brothers robbed the First National
bank at Mortified in 1875. At that
time this am Tom Hatton was on
the police force at Mortified and he
says 1T was some day in that town.
He tells Of how the James and Younger
brothers came into the town, going to
a restaurant, eating a meal and visit
ing several other business places be-
fore they attacked the bank. Old Tom
Hatton says he remembers well Of see
ing Cole Younger at the restaurant,
n that after he vas arrested at the
next town after the robbery he went
down there to identify some Of the
men. ?
After the robbery Hatton says most
Of the people had their lives scared
out Of them, and that he himself was
one OF the men to stay under the side
walk for nearly two days, and that
every once in awhile he would give a
kid. a nickel to see if the robbers had
left town. :

In connection with the robbery was
that after Bill Chadwick and Glenn

Commercial clubs, will be present and
address the meeting.
Messrs. c. A. Stubbins n O. o.
Sheggeby of Granville are entitled to
great praise for coming to Lansford

John Ross as chauffeur. The distance
travelled to and from Lansford was
1870 miles, and the weather was any
thing but pleasant for the trip.
The following delegates were pres
ent (%although nearly every town in
the loop phoned in during the day that
the weather was keeping large delega-
tons from attending the meeting):

Many plans were suggested during
the meeting for the proper advertis-
ing of the loop in the east, and when
the temporary board of directors meet
in a short time some definite line Of
action will be decided upon, and active
work will start at once.
Sure it is that the newly organized
Mouse River Loop Immigration &
Development association means pusi-
ness, and we expect great things from
1t.
c. c.. Banks, president of the Lans-
ford Commercial club, opened the
meeting with a few we'll chosen re-
marks, explaining Lansford's reasons
for calling the meeting, and guaran-
teeing the active support Of the bust
ness men of this city. He welcomed
the delegates to the city, and predict
cd great things for the association.
Many members Of the local club drop
ped in and helped in q material way
in making the visitors comfortable.
All those in attendance realized that
there was a big job ahead, but they all
tackled the proposition in a manne

hoped that at the next meeting all the
cities and towns of the loop will be
represented, and the secretary will try
best to see to it that the roads are
good and the weather ideal for this

rain WAS NEEDED
AROUND MOTT

Mott, N. D., Sept. 26.-Though a
heavy fall Of rain and a slight storm
during the past two days had delayed
all threshing operations for the bal
ance of the week. the heavy precipi-
tation is just what is. needed in this
section for fall plowing. Fields all
through this section had become dry
and hard from lack Of moisture, and
the rain at this time will aid materi-
ally h crop for next year. Though
there Is considerable grain yet to be
threshed in this section, threshing is
a great deal farther advanced here
than 1t was last year. and a large
mount Of the fall blowing will be
completed this fall. Though the crop
in this part of Hettinger county MAY
moi average over eight bushels to the
acre, the wheat is of excellent quality
and the farmers expect to realize "a
good profit: The dairy industry is
steadily gaining Roadway in this
county, and the farmers are becoming
more prosperous every year.

Lansford, N. D., Sept. 26.-Wednes-
day Of this week marked an important
epoch in the history of the develop
ment of the famous Mouse river loop
n for on that day a number
of h business men Of the loop
gathered at Lansford, and formed the
Mouse River Loop immigration and
Development association, that has for
it's objects the filling up of the loop
with desirable settlers, and the proper
development of the loops resources.
The weather man was most unktnd,
but this fact did not deter business
men from Granville, Deering, Glen
burn, Mohall, Grano n Greene from
getting to the meeting, and taking
part in organizing this movement.
w. III. killen, immigration commits
sioner Of the 500 railway, was here
and addressed the meeting, telling of
what other similar organizations had
done. and advising with those present.
His talks were listened to with rapt
attention, and much good was cleaned
from him. He is heart and soul in
the work of developing North Dakota,
and the association feels that they
have a. strong n able ally in Mr..
Killen.
After going over the proposition
thoroughly, it was moved that a
temporary organization be effected,
with temporary officers. The motion
was duly carried, and the following
officers were elected to serve until
such time as the permanent organlza-
ton could be effected:
P~resident-G. L. Gould, Glenburn.
Secretary-Will E. Holbein, Lans-
ford.
Treasurer-sen. o. j, Clark. Sher-
wood.

ed
Clean space on the barn floor and
thoroughly sprinkle it with the for
malin solution before spreading the
through the tanning mill twice to re-
move all light grain, as only heavy
clean seed should be sown. Spread
down the seed grain. then sprinkle the
grain with the formalin solution made
as follows: Formalin, one ounce: wa
ter, two and onehalf gallons; mix
thoroughly. The solution can be ap-
piled with fine rose watering pot;
shovel the grain over so that every
seed is coated with the solution. When
all the grain ia coataed, shovel the
grain into a round pile and cover with
hours, then spread out, and as soon
as the oats will not stick together 1t
is fit to SOW or drill The grain should
be treated in the morning and drilled
in the same day. The drill should be
set to drill two and one-fourth to two
and one-half bushels to the acre. as
the oats, having absorbed considerable
water are larger than dry oats. Have
the ground thoroughly mellowed;
drill the oats in with ESQ pounds to
the acre of some good bone fertilizer.
Even If the ground is in good order, 1t
will pay to use the fertilizer. The fer
tilizer will ripen the grain early, the
straw will stand up stiff and cannot be
blown down by summer storms and
the yield will be increased fully 10 to
IL bushels per acre.

Creoline Is one OF these preparations.
They are all dark-colored liquids

mixed with water form a milky white

have tried several kinds with ex-
cellent results. Practically all drug

advise using a dip made by a we'll

Such tank is very useful wherever
hogs are kept in numbers. as frequent

Wendell News Notes.
No Patents Wanted.

The latest development on the tract is
the report that Congressman Smith has
taken it upon himself to urge the grant
ing OF patents on the land adjoining
Wendell and Jerome on the North Side
tract. This evidently explains the rea-
son why all the corporate interests busted
themselves to such an extent during the
campaign last year in the interest OF this
same Smith, urging his election 50 strong
ly that many voters wondered why. We
believe that every effort possible should
be made to hold these patents up from
issue at this time as We all know that
should they be granted. then the very
best instrument that the settlers have 10
force the company to fulfill Their con-
tract, is gone, as the [. ;. government
is much more active in the interest OF
the settler than any other power, and
with the patents held up by the govern
ment we are sure to have our interests
protected. The Farmers Association
sOlit luOillll- d-V presence tA@%~~7e -
the then Secretary Of the Interior, pro
testing against the issuance OF these pat
ents until the company had shown de-
termined effort to fulfill the contract,
and for this reason the patents have not
been issued. But now comes this would
be beneiactor Smith and urges the issue
OF them simply to satisfy the urgings OF
this great company even over the protest
OF ninety-five per cent OF the real settlers
on the tract. The owners OF Carey Act
lands on the North Side tract should send
in their protest as early as possible. The
board OF directors should wire their pro-
test at once and every influence tina team
be used should be pushed forward to
have this matter stopped at once. There
is nothing to be gained by the settler
in holding patents at this time as it is
not possible now TO borrow money on
this land. We must have other matters
settled before that can be done.
