IN NORTH DAKOTA
ii..5WS Of the Week From MANY
Sections Of the State.
GAIN IN STOCK PRODUCTION
Experts Declare There Are More Cat.
tile in the State Than During
Old Ranching Days.

There are more cattle in North Da'
kota than in the old r%anching days
to say nothing OF the thousands OF
hogs that are being raised. At least
this is the claim of those who profess
to be in touch with the live stock stu
alton in the state.
Indicative Of changing methods in
North Dakota is the demand for stock
yards and loading chutes for live
stock. The railroads readily grant the
demand as soon as convinced of the
necessity, believing it means in
creased prosperity and more continu'
Il freight.
The increasing number of herds is
due to the efforts of the agricultural
college and the Better Farming asso'
citation to get the people to abandon
exclusive wheat crops and rotate and
diversity. The changes are marking a
new era of prosperity in the state.
Applications for about fifty stock
yards on the different railroads have
been filed this spring and inquiries
are being made for more.

THREE ARE HELD FOR TRIAL
Cribery Charges Against Two More
Are Dismissed.

After Justice Phil Mclaughlin at
Grand Forks had ordered bribery
chal ges dismissed against J. G. Mahon
of lnlster, accused of tampering with
the jury which acquitted McLain Coo
per Of murder at Grand Forks in
1912, States Attorney Burtness moved
for a dismissal of the charges of brib-
cry against Harry Cooper, father OF
NicI.ain. Justice Mclaughlin complied
with the motion.
Three men Of the number arrested
several weeks ago following charges
of bribery by Bailifi Andy Sullivan
still are under arrest. They are j. S.
Stevens and Richard Bruyere, jury
men, and Bailiff Sullivan. All have
been bound over to the district court
awaiting trial at the June term.
Justice Mclaughlin. in dismissing
Mahon. ruled that the evidence was
insufficient to connect him with the
alleged bribery. The same grounds
were covered in the motion of the
states attorney t 0 dismiss the elder
Cooper. Tracy r. Bangs, jointly &C
cused by Sullivan, was dismissed
several days ago.
1t has not been decided if new pro
ceedings will be started in view of the

BAD LANDS MAY BE OPENED
Herds Will Craze on Unarable Tracts
If Plan Goes Throuoh.

1t may soon be possible for stock
raisers to make 64O-acre homestead
entries in the bad lands in the west
ern part Of the state, of which there
are 720 full sections.
The public lands committee, nation
al house of representatives, has de-
cided to improve wild lands that are
not sufficiently arabic to attract home
steaders by allowing homesteaders a
full section. improvements of at least
$l.25 an acre will be required before
patents are issued, but it need not be
farming. The homesteader must re-
main on the land, as generally re-
CURED. Homesteaders on adjoining
lands will be given preference. The
plan will assist stockmen who cannot
secure enough pasturage under the
present laws. On many tracts there
are a few acres of arabic land.
