HORSE VALUES
GOING HIGHER
SAY EXPERTS

A year ago the remount station at
Fort Keogh was paying $135 for hal
ter broken three-year-olds. Now it
is paying $160 for mature horses,
five years old and broken to saddle.
Cavalry standards require an animal
not less than Is hands high and built
in proportion.
Four or five hundred horses are
trained annually at the station. It is
the intention to carry over this COM
ing winter from 700 to 1000 head.
A permanent crew of 140 men is
employed at Fort Keogh. About 60
of these are riders, most of them
former cowboys and horse breakers.
A system Of gentling the animals in
stead of breaking them is followed at
Fort Keogh and the horses develop
into much better mounts, it is said,
than under the method that until
very recently was in general vogue
in the west.
Three large remount stations are
maintained by the war department,
one in Virginia, one in Nevada and
one in Montana. These have not
been able to furnish all the horses
needed, and within the past two
months the government purchased
2,700 animals under contract in the
open market.
Capt. Charles w. Van Way, gov
ernment man in Montana, is author
ity for the prices quoted above.

BELOW THE GROUND
Several Stark County Farmers are
Thinking of Trying the Pit Sil0
This Year. r.

Pit silos are meeting with wide
spread favor among the farmers of
South Dakota. The idea has travelled
to North Dakota and many inquiries
are being made about their adyant-
ages. .qE.s.s51
The silo movement is becoming
popular throughout the state. It is
estimated that over 5000 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.
The pit silo is new thing in si1ol
construction, which makes it possible:
for every. farmer to have such a
thing on his farm. Great interest is
being taken all oyersthe northwest in
a cheaply constructed silo that will
preserve the ensilage properly.
The digging is the hardest part but,
is not difficult to handle If started
right and the idea Isl 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
carrier in which the ensilage will
later be taken OUT ssS;s9ssf.ssSs3

mail and drives in from Willard
street, heading north, he will have to
stop his car on the right hand side
Of the street alongside the Benzie

LANDLORD ALDRICH

James M. Aldrich, one of the popu-
lar leading hotel men of the north
west, has taken a long lease on the
new Willard Hotel. Both Mr.. and
Mrs. Aldrich hold enviable reputa-
tions as successful hotel proprietors,
having conducted some of the leading
hotels in different places, at Aber-
deem, S. D., Minot, N. D., Brookings,
Es. D, and St. Paul, MINI. The fine
rs room hotel known as the Aldrich
apartments at Aberdeen, was entirely
organized and established by Mrs.
Aldrich during the time Mr.. Aldrich
operated the St. James cafe Of that
city. These hotel people came to
Dickinson highly recommended. They
are popular among the transient,
travelling men and whole sale houses
Of the Twin Cities and Chicago. They
are furnishing the Willard Hotel
throughout with up-to-date goods Of
quality.
Two years ago the Aldrichs decided
to retire from actual hotel life and
settled at New Rockford, N. D., con-
ducting an exclusive furniture store
there. They soon made friends of the
entire community, all of whom regret
the loss of this estimable couple,
but "once a hotel man, always ho-
tel man" The joy Of serving the
public has gained the upper hand Of
quiet every uay business life and
both are glad to get into the enter
prise of hotel life again. They ex-
pect to have the Willard Hotel in full
running order by the 18th Of July,
and are extending hearty invita-
ton to the citizens of Dickinson as
well as the people Of the surrounding
country. The house will at all times
be open for public inspection. Both
Mr.. and Mrs. Aldrich are enthusias-
tic over the prospects of Dickinson
1t will be their aim to make the Vii
lard Hotel and it's guests loyal to the
city and the country tributary.

be run on the European order and
will be open to the public at all hours

This new three-story brick hotel is
located on the site where the old
Willard House was erected by G. n.
Klinefelter during the early summer
of 1883. In those days, 81 years ago,
the Willard House was the stopping
place for many of the large cattle
men who were operating so extern
sively in the country. At two differ
ent times when passing, Henry Vii
lard, for whom the hotel was named,
crossed over from the Northern Pa
cific depot and placed his name on
the register. Willard was the center
of attraction in the financiering cir
cles of the road at the time and
made trips over the line occasionally.

lard Hotel, in all it's appointm
attractive and convenient; It is mod
ern in every particular, light and ven
tiiation having had special attention
throughout the building. :
I The front, with it's double entrance,
has an attractive appearance. The
plate glass is set in copper bars,
with marble wainscoating in the CEN
ter Of the doors. Loaded art glass
gives clear, soft light for the stair
way leading to the second floor from
the lobby. Thirty feet in front, 25
feet on either side of the entrance,
has been set off for lobby purposes
and for the present the east room
on the first floor, eventually to be.
fitted with short order counters, will
also be used as a part Of the lobby.
A pretty arrangement of the office
is the circular counter on each side
Of the double lobby. The checking
room is just back Of the office. The
dining room proper is on the west
side on the main floor, having six;
private dining rooms in connection,
each fitted with private telephones,
etc. A large kitchen, with q big cool-
ing room adjoining, opens into the.
dining rooms from the north. 8
The wood finish throughout the
building, including the basement
rooms, is golden oak. All the hard
ware is what is known to the trade
as brushed brass. Cream and tan,
with brown wainscoating, is the
color scheme of the dining room. #

Heavy Fines for Hunting
With Ferret.

Richland Democrat: A party of
hunters who gave their address as Mil
waukee came out to the Manning farm
in the town of Orion on Tuesday of last
week for season of rabbit hunting
They brought ferret along and had
but fairly got launched on the days
sport when out of the nearby brush
stepped couple of Wisconsin's game
department ferrets, and placed the
bunch under arrest for violation of the
law. The party appeared before Justice
Miller, of this city, and paid fines and
costs amounting to $40. They had the
money and did not propose to allow n
little thing like that mar their outing,
though it probably was not so easy to
get the game after the little animal was
put out of the hunting.

The BIushinq Tree.

The blushing tree gets its name from
the change of hue it assumes when
the rain falls on it. AS the drops
drench the leaves, gradually but I'M
mistakably the green tint gives way to
pink. In a few minutes the green
fades from sight Only in few half
hidden spots beneath broad branches
and on it's trunk is there a tinge of
green to be seen. After an hour or
more, when the shower is over. the
tree assumes it's familiar green once
more. Certain tiny insects. and not
the tree itself, change color. These
peculiar parasites are possessed of the
power Of chameleons. In the warm
sunshine they are greener than the
tree on which they live, but when the
chilly rain falls upon them they con,
tract their tiny backs and become a
pretty pink in tint. Millions OF these
change the entire appearance Of the
tree and make it seem to be blushing

MOISTURE AND DUST.
Why This Rain Combination In the Air

Why This Rain Combination In the Air
Shows Red Sun.
An old weather proverb runs, "A red
sun has water in his eye and the con-
dition which gave rise 10 it Is explain
ed by Professor w }. Humphreys Of
the United States weather bureau in
discussion of some useful weather
proverbs.
The condition that most favors a red
sun is a great quantity Of dust-espe-
cially smoke particles-in a damp at
mosphere Smoke alone in sufficient
quantity will produce this effect. but
it is intensified by the presence OF
moisture.
The blue and other short wave
length colors of sunlight are both scat
tered and absorbed to greater extent
by given amount OF dust or other
substance, such as water vapOr, than
is the red, and this effect becomes
more pronounced as the particles Goa
lesce.
Hence when the atmosphere is heav-
lily charged with dust particles that
have become moisture laden We see
the sun as fiery ball
1t has been known that this dust has
much to do with rainfall. since it was
proved by the physicist Aitken years
ago that cloud particles, and therefore
rain. will not under ordinary conditions
form in a perfectly dust free atmos
phere, but will readily form about

sphere that Is sufficiently damp A red

presence of both of the essential rain
elements-that is, dust and moisture
