Charges of Bribery
Against Tracy Bangs
Ware Dismissed Today

tives' services in the bribery cases,
Mr.. Feetham is also of the opinion
that the county should not be liable
for the amount. He claims that the
states attorney should have first
obtained an order from the court for
the amount. He says that he be-
lieves that the approval OF the war
rant by the judge Is not sufficient to
make the claim valid. Mr.. Feetham
declared that he has asked the at
torney general to give his opinion on
the question of whether a states at
torney can spend large sums Of money
in. procuring evidence in criminal
cases and whether he can make the
county liable for them. He wishes
TO determine whether the states at
torney is the sole judge in such a
matter. Mr.. Feetham believes that
the county is not liable for the ex-
penditure Of such money.
Mr. Feetham further declared thai
he has absolute proof that the evil
.denca obtained against McLain
Cooper is absolutely perjured. Gov
ernor West, he declares.Sis also Of the
same opinion and has stated that he
will be glad at any time to sigI
requisitYon papers to take Sullivan
back west to atone for his crimes
while there.

BUILDING SILOS
BENEATH GROUND

Pit silos are meeting with wide.
spread favor among the farmers or
South Dakota. The idea has Travelled
to North Dakota and many inquiries
are being made about their adVan-
tages. -. .,..
The silo movement is becoming pop
ular throughout the state. It Is esti-
mated that over 3,000 will be erected
in North Dakota this year. This is
most encouraging news to the better
farming field agents and to the farm
extension men. e, -.
The pit silo is new thing in silo
construction, which makes 1t possible
for every farmer to have such a thing
on his farm. Great interest is being
taken all over the northwest in
cheaply constructed silo that will pre-
serve the ensilage properly.
The digging is the hardest part but
is not difficult to handle il started
right and the idea is to get the der
rick and track arrangement made be
fore starting any digging and then the
dirt Is drawn in the same box or car
rier in which the ensilage will later
be taken out.
In a soil inclined to. cave or where
ii would be near an artesion Wen and
the ground perhaps perrneated with
water, it would be difficult to baild
one of these but ordinarily 1t is safe
and easy proposition.
d. r. Waite of Miller, S. D., presi-
dent Of the Hand County State bank
or Miller, Is the promulgator of the pit
silo idea A year ago he was quoted
in the papers about it and received sc
many inquiries from farmers all over
the northwest that he could not an
swerl them all.
There are, many points oI advan.
tage in the pit over the above ground
styles" said Mr. Waite to a Fargo
man the other day. They cannot
blow down, dry out, freeze, are easier
filed, require no expensive blower as
| is the case with the above ground kind
and have other good features. t
aMy brother, w. w. Waite, who il
president of the Hughes County banl
of Blunt. 8. D., is operating a couple
of large stock farms and is using the
DIT silo and is expecting to put in an
other this year. IT, H. Beyington o.
