POULTRY

Bottineau County has no exclusive poultry
farms, yet, but a great deal of interest is mani
tested among the farmers and fanciers in the poul-
try business as a side-line. All kinds of poultry
thrive we'll and yield good returns considering the
amount of time devoted to them and the amount
of investment.

and more than once they have brought back

c~essfully here.
Government and state reports say that II
pounds of alfalfa hay is equal to 1 pound of
wheat bran in the production of milk. Alfalfa
is a home grown concentrate, and consequently
can be grown more cheaply than the usual con-
%centrates can be purchased. It is stated that
alfalfa is of great value as a milk producer, for
it is a we'll known fact that an ample milk flow
requires rich feeds. If a dairy cow is proper
ly fed, she must have a ration that contains a
larger percentage of protein than is found in
common hays. Protein is supplied through bran
lnseed meal or some other concentrate. To pay
high prices for these to increase milk flow means
that the cost of milk production is increased, and
in many cases to such an extent that milk is pro-
duced at a loss, or at a nominal margin. Thus
it would seem that Bottineau County is prepar-
ed for a gigantic dairy business with her large

RAILROAD FACILITIES

Bottineau County is blessed with ample rail.
way facilities in that three branches of the
Great Northern run through it northward form
the main line, and the Wheat line of the 500
Railway traverses the county from eaat to west,
thus a~ffording easy means of transit for trav-
elers and the best of means for shipment of
goods into the county and the produce of the
county to the eastern markets.
Coming from the east on the main line of
the Great Northern the first branch line com.
ing into Bottineau County is the Rugby-Antler

borders of the county, and more are being con-
structed every year. For instance one town
ship in the county has 81 miles of the best con-
structed roads in the state.
Under a special act of the legislature it was
made possible for the road tax to be paid either
in cash or in labor, and it is a pleasure to an
nounce that at this writing the township clerks
are reporting that the majority of the taxpayers
are paying the tax in cash, so that many miles
of scientifically constructed roads will be built
this year and during the succeeding years.
The Board of County Commissioners of Bot
tineau County are taking a commendable inter-
est in the art of road building, and among other
things under consideration by them is the con-
~struction of a trunk highway across. the county
from east to west with spurs running north and
south from it, so that in a very few years it will
be possible to get to any point in the county ov-

acreage of alfalfa and other milk producing grains
and grasses.
Inasmuch as the dairy industry in Bottin-
eau County is really in it's infancy it will be i'm
possible to give any reliable statistics as to the
number of pounds of butter-fat that have been
marketed in recent years, but it is safe to say
that it has been large, for besides local consump-
ton every city and town in the county has one
to two cream stations that are paying cash on
delivery in most cases for butter-fat, and thus
furnishing the best market possible for this pro-
duct.

Diversified FQrminQ

The future holds great things in store for
the dairying industry, as many of our farmers
are specializing in dairy cattle, so that within
a very few years every community will have it's
creamery, and the broad acres of the county will
be dotted with dairy cattle which will be daily
paying their owners a steady income that can
not be computed in advance. The agitation is
here; it only remains for the next few years
to make this county a full sized dairy country,
with the consequent prosperity from the indus
try.
GOOD ROADS
As good roads are considered essential to
The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1915-11-18

modern civilization, a treatise on the roads Of
Hottineau County would not seem out of place.
AS is we'll known by auto owners who make long
trips about the country there are two kinds of
roads that always cause them joy. One kind is
the natural prairie trail road and the other is the
intelligently constructed dirt road. Bottireau
County is intersected with both of these kinds
of roads. 1t is sometimes thought that the ex-
cellency of the prairie roads of the county have
acted as a detriment to the construction Of mod
ern earth roads, but there are hundreds of miles
or carefully constructed highways within the

Line, starting from the main line at Rugby. On
this line will be found the enterprising towns
of Willow City, Omemee, Bottineau, Carbury,
Souris, Roth, Landa, Westhope and Antler.
At Towner will be found the Towner-Maxbass
Line, and on this road will be found the towns
of Deep, Newburg and Maxbass.
At Granville will be encountered the third

market form any given point in the county.
On each line of road traversing the county
there is a passenger train each way each day,
besides the regular freights, thus affording dir
ect daily connections with the eastern cities and
markets. From any given point in the county
we are approximately 10 hours from Minneapo-
lis and St. Paul by passenger train, and twenty
eight hours from Chicago.

The railways traversing the county pay a
large highway tax, and this is usually paid out
on contracts for construction. of highways ada.
cent to the railway lines.
Another source of revenue for good roads
is the automobile tax. AS is known every au-
tomobile and motorcycle in the state pays a year
ly license. The greater portion of this license
money is returned to the county from which it
originates, and this fund is used for the better
ing of roads.

town in Bottineau County on this line is Lans-

The Wheat Line of the 500 enters Bottineau
County at Overly, which is a freight division OF
the road, and going west the following towns
will be found: Omemee, Gardena, Kramer, Rus
sell, Eckman, Hurd, and Lansford. At Omemee.
Deep and Lansford wyes have been constructed
so that freight shipments in carload lots may
be transferred from one line of the road to the
other.
Altogether there are 100 miles of railroad in
Bottineau County thus affording an easy haul to

THE DAIRY INDUSTRY

To be successful in the dairy industry the
first essential is the right kind of stock, and
second the right kind of feed. The cheaper the
feed the more profit in the industry. We raise
here just the right kind of crops to produce chaep
feed, such as corn and alfalfa, both of which, as
pointed out in the foregoing pages, grow sue

AMERICAN SHIP
SEARCHED BY BRITISH
Report from American Consul from
Mexico Indicates a Very Sc
ious Situation.

WASHINGTON, Nov 10-The Ameri-
can steamer Zealandia was forcibly
searched by parties from a British cruiser
last week while lying in the port of Pro
greso, Mexico. The American consul there
reports that the cruiser now is lying out
side, presumably waiting to seize the ship
On the face of such a report as the consul
sent, even though incomplete, the official
conclusion here is that the British naval
authorities not only violated Mexican neu-
trality, but far exceeded their rights in
forcibly Selling an American ship in a
neutral port.
The Zealandia has figured much of late
in report of investigation of British agents
on the trail of ships supposed to be fitting
out in the United States for attacking oil
carrying ships from Mexican fields, where
the British navy draws a great proportion
| of its supply of fuel oil
| The Zealandia has no change of registry
involved as has been the case in many
other American ships since the beginning
of the war, but was originally a Hawaiian
ship which came under the American flag
at the time of the annexation
On Oct. Z the Zealandia mysteriously
left Pensacola, Fla, at night, sailing for
Tampico, Mexico, carrying a large stock OF
provisions, and manned principally by a
crew of Germans. An American flap
painted on her huh had been painted over
and it was reported that while at sea she
flew the German colors, although that wa:
fatty denied by her owners The forciblt
searching of an American ship in a neutra
port would probably constitute one of tn,
most serious issues to arise between tn,
