EDDY COUNTY IS
INF ROWING ROADS

Darlington, N. D., Oct. Eddy
county is spending over $4,000 i'm
proving the road between Barlow and
New Rockford. When the work is
finished, there will be first class
road sixteen miles north to New Rock
ford without a turn. In the past the
road from Barlow to New Rockford
has been one of the most notoriouslv
poor ones of any in this region and a
large amount of traffic that would
otherwise, have gone between this
city and the Eddy county capital has
been abandoned rather than try to get
over the disgraceful road. The Foster
county end of the road was put in
condition several years ago, and two
years ago Eddy county partly improv-
ed their end of the line. The improve
ments now under way will give good
road the entire distance. The contract
price is $4,000.

yECCS MAKE:
Good HAUL

Flaxton, N. D.; Oct. 1.-Three men
We're held up on the wheat train be-
tween Flaxton and Columbus, the
thieves securing nearly $14O. One of
the victims Of the holdup was an old
man about 6o years of age. who had
been, working on thrssll:ng rig heal.
Columbus. He was en- route to his
home at Fargo and had purchased a
ticket at Columbus that afternoon for
Flaxton. Having missed the passen-
ger train, he decided to board the
wheat train. The agent at Columbus,
knowing that the old man had money,
advised him not to attempt to ride in
box car. Nevertheless, he boarded a
box car with three other men and
when the train was between Columbus
and Rival he and another member of
the party were held up at the point of
gun and feeced. The old man and
the other victim were locked in the
car and were released by the train
crew on arriving at Flaxton. The
holdup men robbed the third man who
was riding on top of the train be-
tween Flaxton and Rival. It is thought
quite probable that the thieves left
the train somewhere between Flaxton
and Rival, as no trace of them could
be found upon arrival.

CHILD RUN OVER
BY WAGON, DIES

Cavalier, N. D., Oct. IA most dis
tressing fatality to the little a.
n1onth-old son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Will
am Maher of Hamilton happened on
Thursday of last week. Mr.. and Mrs.
Maher, who live north and west of
the Hamilton school house, while abb
sent from home, left the little boy in
charge of his grandmother, Mrs. Bur-
ton. Unnoticed by Mrs. Burton the
little boy got out of the yard and was
in the roadway when a young man
named Warner came driving past with
team and wagon. Warner was peeling
a carrot as he drove along and did not
notice that there was any child in the
roadway. One Of the wheels of the
heavy wagon struck the lad and ap-
parently knocked hi mdown and ran
over his head. The little fellow was
soon picked up and carried into the
house and physician quickly sum-
moned, but the heavy wagon had done
it's fatal work and he was beyond the
help of medical skill. He lived only
about three hours. The fatality was
purely accidental as far as Warner,
the teamster, was concerned, as he
was not aware Of the presence of the
child when he drove by.

State,-then along came another Governor.
"Come out to Kansas: we need you,' was
his businesslike invitation.
"Wait until I've put the finishing touches
on this job, and l WILL was the answer.
Thus Burkett became director of the Kansas
Agricultural Experiment Station at Man
haitian.
Before we can do anything worth while
in promulgating the new agriculture here,
they told him, "we must have money, lot
of it."
And Burkett put so much pep into his
campaign for funds that at the end of his
first year he had secured legislative ap-
preparation of million dollars-which was
more money than Kansas had had for agri-
cultural education purposes in forty-four
preceding years.
Kansas produces one-ninth of all the
wheat in the country,-as much as eighty to
ninety million bushels year. Its wheat fields
are its gold mine, its drawing account at
the bank. Might not Burkett make for the
improvement of its wheat as he had for corn
and cotton in the East? His past perform
ances justified their faith in him, and so
they sent him on mission to Russia to
study methods and varieties in the ia
nous wheat districts, where is grown some
of the finest grain in the world. During
his tour of observation, inspection, and
study of the Russian wheat country Bur
kett made careful selection of twenty differ
ent samples of the choicest grain grown un-
der various environment, fertilization, and
cultural methods.
The first year these samples were planted
on the test plots of the Kansas station they
showed the high quality of their breeding in
marked degree. Since quality, weight,
plumpness, and hardness of grain are almost
if not quite as important as quantity of
yield, with which quality has much to do,
notable and lasting Improvements are prom
ised, not alone to the farmers of Kansas, but
to the wheat-producing country as a whole.

desire OF the state progressive cam

today to consider campaign plans and
the attitude of the former president

The advisory committee, after it's

colonel to be the progressive guberna-

come for his party to END the futile
alteration between progressive and

Abiding to the announced candi-

Johnson on the twenty ninth day of
May arrested one Fred Schap, trav-
cling man from Omaha, on COM
plant charging that Mr.. Schap was
violating the auto laws by not having
his numbers properly displayed. The
case was taken before Justice w. ID.
Irwin north Of town on Tuesday after
noon, Il change of venue taken from
Mr.. Irwin to Mayor Dean of Lake
View. Ross Sifford appeared for Mr..
Schap and County Attorney Malcolm
Currie appeared for the town OF wall
Lake The case was argued ut some
length and verdict rendered i'll faV-
or of the defendant.
Mr.. Johnson contended that tray
cling representative of some Nebras-
ka firm or any other foreign state had
no right to travel in Iowa on Nebras-
ka automobile numbers while attend
ing to his business as salesman Tor
The foreign firm, the case being tired
on these grounds. The defendant con
tended that this referred only to auto
dealers and did not affect him in the
least, which contention was upheld
by his honor, Mayor Dean. Mr.. Schap
is resident of Omaha, has his car
registered in Nebraska, carries his re-
ceipt, has the numbers painted on the
radiator and tank of his car. thus hav-
ing numbers in front and rear.
1t is well that this case be tried
out. as the question is constantly
arising. not only in Wall Lake. but
throughout the entire state. and not
only in Iowa. but also other states,
and while the decision of Mayor Dean
will very likely be final in this in
stance, yet there are many who would
like to see the case taken before the
district court and then still higher. to
settle the question for all time to
come.
Mr.. johnson seems to have a grieV-
ance against violators of the auto laws
About one year ago Mr.. Johnson was
himself arrested for speeding, taken
before the mayor and fined. but car
ried the case to the higher court and
won out on account of faulty regis
