Ii" had increased his cattle holdings

We understand he purchased $50
head from Pollock Bros, a large
sI.'inbcr from Ed. Langliers and
7 'isum kecfer, besides numerous small
lots being picked up by R. c. Bales.
The cattle are to be weighed up
next Wednesday, the 10th, and will
probably be taken to Winona and
ferried across the Missouri river, but
they may be taken to Glenham and
shipped to Chadwick, station on
the Milwaukee road not far from the
ranch.
Mr.. Stiles is going into the cattle
business on large scale, having just
returned last month from Montana
with 1, 900 head Of one and two year

Prairie Fire. Last Week

There was prairie fire last week
along the main line Of the Milwau-
kee railroad west OF Mcintosh, which,
burnt a stretch Of country between
that point and Walker. There was
also a small fire that burnt stretch
of country from Leaf on the Hill
creek to the Cannonball river, but
not much damage is reported. Ow-
ing to the many tircbreaks it is COM
parative]y easy to confinc a fire this
year to very small area, and SO
far there has been no fire of any
magnitude on The reservation in
North Dakota. A fire Thursday
night destroyed a Milwaukee rail-
road bridge near Chadwick, which
delayed train service all day Friday
on the Standing Rock branch.

| Indians Here Are
. More Prosperous
The Indians On the Standing Rock Res.
erva,ion Threshed Large Yields This
Season.-Are Prosperous

Readers of daily papers will re-
call that short. time ago Il new;
item was featured to the effect that
Devils Lake Indian had market.
cd 1000 bushels OF wheat this sea-
son. Whilca very creditable record
!; for the Devils Lake reservation,
/ there are many Standing Rock In
dians who farm more extensively,
and can boast larger yields.
/ In Cannonball district last week
/ Adolph N'isespirit thrcshcd over
/ 2,WO bushels Of wheat, securing an
i average yield of y bushels to the
I; acre In the same district there arc
many other Indian farmers who arc
/ making an excellent showing and
arc farming from 50 to $50 acres,
/, Among those are Thos. Mentz, John
Littlecrow, Jesse Redhawk, and
many others whose names are not
familiar to the writer. A trip
through that section of the reserva-
tion from Cannonball to Solen show
fine farms in high state OF cultiva-
ton with good buildings and other
improvements.
/ The Indians named above also
own asthreshing machine which they
bought in partnership to do their
! own thrcshing and that OF their
neighborss They have made a sue
cess OF the venture and will be busy
until the close OF the season. These
Indians arc good farmers and their
success will prove a CONSPICUOUS cx-
ample that no doubt will be follow
cd by their less progressive neigh
bors. Iii fact this year there are
many Indian farmers who arc
thrcshiilg from several hundred to
over 1000 bushels OF grain.
While there is more farming done
in Cannohball than any other dis
trict OH the reservation there is a
reason for it. That reason in a
large measure is A. c. Wells, the
government farmer in charge. lie
has preached farming to his Indian
friends for many years. lie has
himself farmed his OWN land exten-
sively, and he is entitled to great
deal Of credit for the success the
Indian farmers in his district are
meeting with.

ND. Herd Law Ammended

According to the herd law Of
North Dakota, stock is permitted To

enacted an amendment to the herd
law which provides that no jack,
stallion, bull or ram shall be per-
mittcd to run at large. with a herd
or otherwise, unless attended by q
hcrder, and it would be well for all
owners OF livestock to obey this Sec
ton of the herd law to the letter.
