The typical cowboy does not look like well dressed man. but he is from the standpoint Of actual cost oi apparel The man of the "effcte east who spends as much as S. for a straw hat or $10 for silk tile" thinks he is going some,' but those who know say there are cowpunchers who spend as mlch as $l00 for a som breIo. Even straw sombreros, made in Mexico, cost as high as $50.
 If the average man pays from $l0 10 $l5 for a pair of custom made boots he has apparently reached the limit of extravaganza. The cowboys most ordinary boots and spurs-and the spurs are an absolute essential part of his footwear eQuirmeat-wll pat big hole in fifty-dollar bill The boots are of the finest leather. made on a special last, with high heels and short camp, and the srurs as rule are chased and set with jewels.
 Tie average worhngman pays d dol lar for suit of overalls. The cha poraios,' or, as the cowboy abbrevi- ates it, the chaps are the comboy's oyerals. They are made of fringed leather and angora goat or lambs skin, with the fleeck side turned out. and these cost from $25 up The city man has his linen shirt and collars and cravat or four-in-hand, but these do not begin to "eat into money" like the cowboys outfit of leather shirt firearms and holster
 And then there is the cowboys sa l. dle. Many of the saddles used by COW boys are worth more than the horses they ride. One can buy a saddle for $25 and get good service out of it, but the great ambition of the cowboy and the cowgirl. too, for that matter, is to have saddle just little bit finer than the other fellows" This reads to rather eXtravagant em;fation, and hundreds of dollars are frequent ly expended for beautifully embossed and decorated saddles. The saddle utilized by Jos. c. Miller, one of the owners of the 10l Ranch Wild West show, which opens the season in Hot Springs Saturday, April 10. is said to have cost over 5000. It is silver mounted and inset with diamonds and other precious stones. But this is an unusual case. The saddle for whic1 the cowboy gives two or three hun dred dollars will attract enough atten tion to satisfy the most ambitious rider of buclling bronchos

FIND MAIL CLERKS BODY
UNDER RAIROAD BRIDGE

John S. Jorgenson, mail clerk on the
Great Northern train 1856, Fargo-Dev-
lbs Lake line, was killed yesterday by
falling from the train few miles east
Of Finley. It is surmised that he lost
his balance and fell from the fast
moving train. An unopened mail sack
which was lying in front Of the door
when the train arrived at Finley, is
pointed out as the obstruction over
which he might have stumbled. He
was missed by the train crew at Hope
and a search was begun by the section
men. His body was found lying on
the ice under railroad bridge.
A wife and two sons survive him.
It is understood the wife is in the asy-
hum in Jamestown and the two boys
are with their grandparents at Hope,
where funeral services will be held
ard interment made.

to start with at least five pure bred
females and one pure bred male. Each
member must keep daily records of
the milk production, recording the
same on sheets furnished by the as
sociation. The superintendent visits
each member once a month, tests the
milk from each COW, adds up the milk
sheet for the previous month and
weighs the feed allowed to each indi-
widual. He makes suggestions as to

"Billy" Jerome, who has edited the
Kenmare News for Vic Corbett, Re-
ceiver of the Minot landoffice for near
ly a year, was placed under arrest
Saturday on a warrant sworn out by
Mr.. Corbett, who alleges that Jerome
has misappropriated funds to the

his hearing will be held this week.

ARRIVAL Of GRANTS
TODD & EMERSON WILL RECEIVE
FIRST SHIPMENT OF FAMOUS
SIX CYLINDER CARS ABOUT
APR. l.

Todd & Emerson, agents for the
Grant six cylinder car, for Ward, Nc
Henry, Renville and Bottineau coun-
ties, expect their first shipment of
a car load to arrive April 1. Owing
to the unusual demand for these cars,
it is impossible for them to get any
of these cars before that time, and
they do not expect to be enabled to get
enough for their territory. They will
have thirty-five cars in all this season,
several of which have already been
placed.
This is the first year that the Grant
cars have been sold in this territory.
Mr.. Todd visited the auto show in
Minneapolis recently and found that
dealers who handled the Grant cars a
year ago, were so we'll pleased that
they are ordering four times as many
cars for this season. The Grant Six
weighs 1900 pounds, is a five passen-
ger car and sells fully equipped for
$795.

Escaped Convict Captured.

Charles Peltier, the Bottineau muir
derer, who escaped from the peniten-
tiary, was captured at Garrison, 70
miles away from the penitentiary. He
surrendered without resistance to F.
w. McGray and DR.. E. c. Stucks, who
found him in hay stack near that
place. Peltier had been tracked in
the snow to Washburn. He stopped
at the Hagness farm hungry and
weary and was given something to eat.
He rode with young Hagness to Gar
rison, but when within half a mile of
the town, jumped from the buggy and
ran into field. Hagness proceeded
to town and feeling sure that the man
was Peltier, gave the alarm. McGray
will receive the 500 reward. Peltier
was unarmed and said he was on his
way to the Turtle mountains to see his
aged mother.

The case of N +. Bolden VS.. Charlie
MaXcy of Sawyer was tried Monday
afternoon. Plaintiff gave Maxcy, a

the proper care. He sued for $3.50
damages. The jury deliberated seven
hours, when the case against Maxcy
was dismissed. Both juries in the
above cases were taken out to supper
at the same time, in charge of three
deputies, the first time such has hap
pened in the history of the county.

Insurance Co. Withdraws Suit.

The case of the Minnesota Insurance
Co. VS.. The State Bank of Tagus, was
settled just before it came to trial in
district court Wednesday. 1t appears
that the company left notes at the
bank for collection and altho the bus
mess was handled in an entirely regu-
lar manner, action was brought by the
Minnesota concern, which later with
drew it. Both attorneys appeared
glad that this was done, as neither
could see any reason for case in the
first place.
The case of Jos. Rowan, local un-
dertaker, VS.. Mrs. Wells of Plenty
wood, Mont, and Mrs. Anderson of
Glenburn, for services rendered at the
time of the death of their father in
Minot, Mr.. Hines, is being tried in dis
trict court today. The amount Mr..
Rowan claims is due him is 1926. He
claims that the defendants ordered
an expensive casket. Upon motion OF
Atty, Sibbald for the defendants, the
action was dismissed.
The case of Watne VS.. Olson was de-
cided Monday in favor Of Olson. The
latter is a Carpio thresher. Watne
worked for him and last fall borrow
ed Olson's auto, and in company with
another fellow and two girls, came to
Minot. On their return, they broke
the car. On this account Olson up
braided Watne, who grew angry and
attacked his employer. In defense,
Olson struck Watne several times,
knocking him down. Watne claimed
$3.50 damages.

Two Cars of Grape Fruit.

People are eating more grape fruit
every year. Two years ago, ten cases
of the fruit would last the Ward Fruit
Co. for weeks. This concern recently
shipped in a solid car of grape fruit,
disposed Of it all in and around Minot,
and expects the arrival Of another car
soon. Grape fruit used to cost from
$3.50 to $500 a case but the last car
sold for from $2.75 to 1925 case.
At the rate it is now going it will be
nothing unusual for Minot to receive
ten cars of the fruit annually, the
same as oranges, within few years.
It might be interesting to know that
it is called grape fruit because it
grows in clusters like grapes.

Saved County Large Sum.

Ward county has been saved $1O,8OO
because of the watchful eyes Of our
county commissioners. This was the
amount the state charged our county
for insane patients at the jamestown
asylum, who really lived in adjoining
counties, or who were residents of
other states. This amount has been
charged off by the state, after an in
terview with our commissioners. Ward
county is now paying the state SIS
per month for AZ patients at the asy-
lum, amounting to $2115 per month.

River Water Stinks.

The water in the Mouse river smells
like some defunct animal. Even after
it has been treated chemically in our
water plant, it gives forth an odor
like unto that animal known to polite
society as polecat. The odor is due
no doubt to the fact that the ice has
covered the water all winter, not CIV
ing the air an opportunity to get in
it's work of publication.

Tlv This in the Spring.

Asparagus does well in North Da-
kota. 1t should be started in the
spring on land that has been thoroly
enriched by plowing under fifty loads
of we'll rotted stable manure per acre
to the depth of 10 or IL inches. Set
the plants in burrows a foot deep and
four feet apart. Use one year old
plants and set them so that the
crowns will be four or five inches be-
low the surface of the soil. The Sc
cret of successful asparagus culture
is to keep the land rich. This can be
done by successive top dressing of
stable manure.

MINOTS BIG PROBLEM.

!. One OF MlnOt'S most serious
. problems, and one that demands
o the immediate attention of our
o officials, is the caring for the
o refuse of the city. Just now, it
9 is being dumped on the side hill
. in plain view of those who travel
. over the hill leading northeast of
8 the city. Not only does it look
o bad, but the stencil is something
o awful and it cannot help but
o prove to be unhealthful. Papers
. are thrown out onto the ground
8 and with the first gale are scat
. tered in every direction, many of
o them finding their way back into
. the city. It is an easy matter to
o find fault, we know. The prob
0 lem is a big one and for that
. reason should be given just that
o much more attention. It's poor
o advertisement for Minot to throw
o this refuse in plain sight OF pass
o ers-by. By all means, it should
% be burned, or at any rate, haul
o ed where it will prove obnoxious
o to no one.
o Minot has an ordinance forbid
> ding throwing refuse into the riv-
o er. This is generally disregard
o ed and as soon as the ice goes
o out, tons of the filth will pollute
. the none too pure water Of the
o Mouse.
o 1t seems to the Independent
o that it would be a good thing if
o the city would hire man or two
o with teams, the year round, to
. haul away ashes and garbage of
o all kinds. The Association Of
o Commerce could win fresh laur-
o els by working hand-in-hand with
o the city authorities in making
o Minot a cleaner city.
