ITHEREE LEGGED
CALF Is WONDER

Sherwood, N. D., June 17.-Byron
Mott, a pioneer settler of Stanford
township, is the owner of a three leg
ged calf, four days old. The calf is
healthy and normal in every respect
with the exception that it was born
without any right fore leg. 1t hops
about the lot as lively as thought it
belong to a three legged race of ami
mails.
Mr.. Mott and his neighbors, among
whom are Obediah Stafford and VIM.
Hardness, both old time range and
stock men, say they have never seen
anything of the kind, and it Is an OBJ
ject of no little interest to the people
of that locality.

One electric road is worth more to

than half a dozen steam roads.

think we will let the matter rest.

to Devise Definite Plan Of
Action Thereon. 81

PARKERsBURG, Dec. 16--At an,
important meeting Of the board OF
the Oil and Gas Producers Associa-
ton held in this city yesterday aft
ternoon various matters Of timely
Importance to Independent oil and
gas men were taken up. "A feature
OF the discussion was the proposed
action to be taken on pipe line rates
and regulations. Much data has been
gathered relative to the charge
brought by oil and gas men that q
discrimination in rates now exists,
thereby curtafling and sinjuring the
business done by the Independent
producers. The information collect
ed along this line was revealed at
the conference, and 1t was the sense
of the board that this with other
data to be gotten should at some
future tome be presented to the Inc
terstate Commerce Commission in
connection with the petition Of the
association. that an investigation Of
rates be conducted. Special details
of this were not given out, II being
considered the wise thing to have
this come out through the testimony
to be taken by the commission when
an Investigation is applied for.
