MEN WANTED

There is equipment in the Dickin-
son armory for IS militia men but we
lack members. The equipment is
practically the same as that issued to
the regular army. The armory has as
good a drill floor as any in the state
and is equipped with a good indoor
range and a gymnasium. The indoor
range can be used all winter. The
outdoor range is just out of town and
the government furnishes the amun-
milton.
The officers and on-commissioned
officers are ready and willing to in
struct to the best of their ability,
those who join.
Every other year the camp is held
outside the state. This year it will be
held at Devils Lake, where the state
has a splendid reservation. The
Chautauqua grounds are only 10 min
utes' walk from camp and there is
good swimming and boating. 4
The government and the state have
co-operated to make it possible for
young men to receive the foundation
of military training with a mini
mum expenditure Of time-ten days a
year in camp and an, average of one
hour week spent in drill and rifle
practice. Those desiring to enlist
should do so at once. Apply at the
armory Monday night at 7:30.

NOTORIOUS DRESSLER
WESTERN CARTOON|S7

Albert Dressler, hailing from San
Francisco and en- route to New York,
blew in Tuesday with one of the num-
erous rain clouds that were sweeping
east from the Rockies. But rain had
no terrors for Dressler. He was
dressed for it and though he says he
was once a tailor-who would dream
it now! Dressler is cartoonist and
he carries in his bulging rockets on
one side copies Of a very clever book
Of his own cartoons entitled "San
Francisco in 1916" On the other side
are loads of newspaper interviews and
sketches for the funny book "On My
Merry Way" which is to come out
this fall and exploit among other
things, the Northen Pacific and the
towns along the "Pioneer" line.
Dressler had just spent an hour at
lunch when we saw him, yet he was
hungry still and always returning to
the subject of "eats." In st. Paul he
is to be photographed with an i'm
mense Northern Pacific baked potato
under his chin. For the success of
the picture we hope he gets filled up
before then.

came. Although the mother refused
to rive up hope, every one else be-
lieved him dead, some thinking that
possibly he had met with foul play
on the way.
About a month ago H. A. Hogue,
the brother of this city, received a
letter which cleared up the mystery.
Lew, after a silence Of 27 years, de-
cided it was about time to drop his
relatives a line. 1t was learned that
he had enlisted in the regular U. S.
army and had had adventure to his
hearts desire, having been in China
during the Boxer uprising and in. the
Philippines during the Spanish-Ameri-
can war. For the last year he has
been in a hospital in San Francisco,
with an injured limb. He served in
the u. S. army about twenty-five
years. His friends, although sorry
for his misfortune, are glad that they
have located him at last.

CONSTRUCTING RESERVOIR
. ERECTING WATER TOWER

With two men away on their vaca-
ton, Manager R. S. Davidson of the
RUSSELL Miller Milling Co, is a very
busy man these days, especially as
the work preliminary to installing the
new sprinkling system, is under way.
An underground reservoir with a
capacity Of 100000 gallons is being
constructed under the roadway south
of the mill and will be covered with
reinforced cement so that the drive
around on that side will not be per-
manently disturbed. Close by will be
the 10000 gallon capacity steel water
tower. The construction crew is
now working on the Mandan tower
and Manager Davidson expects them
The Dickinson press., 1915-06-19

here by the middle of next week.
This tower will be 154. feet in height
up to the roof and the latter will add
quite little to the elevation.
The big mill elevator is III feet in
height so that the new tower will be
thirty-seven feet higher, and Mana
ger Davidson plans to put 20-foot
flag pole on top from which will
wave a large Occident pennant. This
will be conspicuous landmark, WIS.,
ible at a considerable distance when
approaching the city in any direction.
A pump with capacity of 1000
gallons a minute, is being installed in
the mill basement for fire protection.
The mill sprinkling system proper
will not be put in before August and
the mill will be shut down a few days
for this work.

D0WNPOUR OF RAIN
LASTS "a HOURS

The heaviest 24-hour rain since
about 1905 visited Dickinson and vi
clnity last friday night and Saturday
when 2.20 inches fell. The precipita.
ton was general throughout North
Dakota but was not quite as heavy
IN the eastern part Of the state as
around here. In Montana the rain
was even heavier in places than in the
Dakotas. ''' '''
Up to June Is, the rainfall amount
ed to 3.8l inches, 2.82 inches being
normal for. the entire month. This
makes total precipitation of $50 in
ches up to June Is. Normal for the
tlrst months Of the year, or to Julv
l, is 7.44 inches. So it will be seen
that the rainfall to the middle of
June is an inch above the normal for
the first six months Of the year. It is
also noted that 7.4S inches of mois-
ture fell during the months of Nav
and June, at a time when most bene-
ficial to crops.
1t is a poor time for corn but all
small Grains and grass never looked
better at this season of the year.
The. government gauge at Dickin-
son indicated half degree of frost
Tor the night Of June IA, and the fol-
lowing night q degrees. So far as
known very little damage resulted
from this slight frost.
The Dickinson press., 1915-06-19
THEY BELIEVE IN FOG

Those who believe in winter fog
sign for summer are able to figure
out in fine shape this year. Soules &
Butler kept tab last winter and find
that about 80 days after heavy fog
there is a rain. They had the right
date for the June II and IL rains and
have more scheduled for about June
20 and some for early July.
w. A. Mcclure has also made a
record as a weather prophet. He
noted a heavy fog in February and
marked up on the P. A. Moir build
ing that there would be rain on the
18th and there was and lots of it.

RETURN
FROM CALIFORNIA TRIP

Mr.. and Mrs. +. S. Cunningham are
back from their winters trip in
southern California. They left Dick

going via Butte and Salt Lake CITY,
making their first stop in California
at the l.. r. Lothrop home in San
Bernadino. Two weeks later they
went to San Diego, where they spent
the winter, some four months.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cunningham provided
themselves with warm comfortable
rooms, where they rested at night,
spending the day time entirely out of
doors as they had planned on doing
before they left home. They had
many delightful side trips, saw MANY
Dickinson people and enjoyed every
day of their sojourn in sunny Cali
fornia: The San Diego exposition
grounds, they say, are magnificent
and have to be seen to be appreci-
ated.
About Is days were spent at San
Francisco and these Dickinson people
are high in their praise of the North
dakota Exposition building which
they say is very practical and fine
advertisement for our state.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cunningham spent
seven weeks in the Puget Sound
country, but the damp weather of Ia
coma and Seattle did not agree with
them very we'll. The Fred Rau hem
cry, one Of the largest in the world,
was visited. The Cotas were seen at
Portland and former Stark county
families at other points and all and
all their winters trip was as enjoy
able as any person could wish.
