FARMS PRODUCE MORE PORK
Increase Shown by Western North
Dakota shlppers-Demonstrat
Revolution In Methods.

Mandan.-Figures that show a re-
tolution in the methods of farming in
western North Dakota are furnished
by Henry Blakely, general freight
agent Of the Northern Pacific Railway
company.
In 1912 the railroad records show
one carload of hogs shipped from the
territory embraced by the Northern
Pacific branch lines north and south
Of MaEdan, and from Mandan west
to Beach, and the state line.
In 1913 this was increased to lis,
an astounding difference. Then at the
close of business Dec. 81, 1914, the
records showed that ZIG carloads of
hogs had been shipped to eastern mar
kets last year.
Since the time this western section
was settled, hundreds of carloads of
beef cattle have been shipped. but it
has been only in the last two years
that the f!trmers have raised hogs for
anything but the local markets. Man
dan railroad officials say the 1915 hog
shipments will be doubled again. It
Is asserted that in the territory served
by the Mandan-Killdeer branch, farm
ers will ship at least 300 carloads,
while along the Mandan-Mott and main
line west, big increases will also be
shown. One expert says:
AII-Wheat Farming Improbable.
1T was long time coming, but the
farmers now see that all-wheat farm
ing does not pay in the long run. I
look to see western North Dakota one
OF the greatest hog-raising districts in
the world inside of a few years.
In answer to a call of the controller
OF the currency, the First National
Bank of Mandan has announced de-
posts of $1,504,OO. This is held to
be the record for banks in western
North Dakota, and the record for the
state in respect to population of the
city In which the bank is located.
Mandan has only 5000 population.

PROPOSE LOBBY OF fAKmtn~
Secretary Of North Dakota Granoe
Says Society Will Prove Factor
In Next Legislature.

Mandan.-A movement for state.
wide farmers lobby at the next ses-
sion of the North Dakota legislature
was started here when Ray McKaig Of
Fort Rice, secretary of the North Da-
kota grange, announced that he had
definite information of how each legis-
lator voted in the 14th assembly lust
closed. besides an unlimited supply of
Information concerning Hobbies.
Mckaig is laying plans through the
state grange to hold individual and
joint meetings of every farmers or.
ganization in the state at the capital
at the beginning of the next session.
He AYERS that the grange will prove
a powerful factor at the next session,
for although less than a year old,
there are thousands of members, and
hundreds Of applications are being
made.
That the farmers are themselves to
blame for anything they have lost ia
his assertion. "A lobby is a necessary
evil" says McKaig, land just as long
as corporations and other interests
maintain Hobbies. Just SO long must
the farmers be the goats unless they
adopt the same tactics. Bulldozing
methods work no good. We will have
lobbies, but will not attempt to intimi.
date legislators.
'The farmers taxes were increased,
his assessed valuation was increased
and the levies will increase until the
farmers send a lobby to fight their
own battles"

DREAMER TO DRILL FOR OIL.
Says Spirit Of Father Reve;Ied Spot
In Pasture-Orders Well Ror.
Ina Outfit,

Pettibone.-There is a mixture of
oil and dreams in this locality that has
aroused intense interest. Should oil
be located, there will be hundreds of
converts to the theory of subconscious
psychological phenomena.
For years it has been a matter of
common knowledge that traces of oil
were to be found in this part of the
state. Oil is occasionally noticed on
the surface Of springs and sloughs and
is not confined to this locality alone,
but Is pronounced in the sand hills,
also around Edgerly, in the western
part of the state. The general i'm
preston is that lakes or streams of
oil underlie certain sections of the
state.
Recently Chris Robertson, who lives
three miles southeast of this place.
announced that the spirit of his de-
parted father had appeared to him
three nights in succession and told
him he could locate an oil we'll in the
pasture at a certain spot. So vivid
were the Impressions made by the
dreams and so persistent were they in
their recurrence that, after the third
morning, Robertson secured stake
and sledge hammer and went to the
spot in the pasture where the we'll
was located by the spirit and marked
the spot.
His confidence in his ability to find
oil there was so strong that he ordered
fell boring outfit. When it comes,
after boring a few water wells for
friends. he will bore for oil at the spot
In the pasture which he marked. He
is certain he will find osl at a depth
not to exceed IT'S feet.

months, and the total is more than
$1,25O,000 in excess of the largest de.
posits ever before shown by the state

lions.
The increasing strength of the local
banks and the corresponding growth
of confidence on the part of depositors,
foundations among farmers and mer-
chants. especially the payment of
mortgages and interests, are their
chief factors in the increase.
The increasing wealth of the state
through the high price of grains and
the increase in the livestock industry
and dairying interests are also contrib
uting factors and indicative of the pre-.
valent prosperity in North Dakota.
