POISONED OATS KILL HORSES

J Velva, N. D., Sept. 2S.-F. c. Wills,
who lives near Voltaire, lost three Of
his fine horses by feeding them pois-
oned oats and four other horses are
sick as the result.
During the summer Mr.. Wills mixed
strychnine with oats to poison goph'
ers on his farm. He did not use all
of the oats at the time and put what
remained in a sack, labelling it, and
hung it up in the granary out of reach,
for future use. Mr.. Wills mother, an
aged lady lady rs years old, wanted to
make use of sack and seeing the one
in the granary hanging from the wall
apparently not in use, she took 1t
down. Seeing that the sack contain
ed oats and not knowing they were
poisoned she poured the contents into
the oat bin. Mr.. Wills fed his horses
as usual and in a few minutes they
began to act strangely. He became
alarmed and called veterinarian
from Velva, but before the veterinar-
ian arrived three had died. AntidOtes
were administered and four of the
horses were saved.
1t is heavy loss to Mr.. Wills as
all the horses were fine animals.

Was Held Up
Tuesday Night

Fred Monsoon, son Of Peter Monson,
living on the old Giselius farm five
miles northwest of Valley City, was
held up Tuesday night by highway
man who was impolite enough to
shoot first and give the customary
order second.
Mr.. Monsoon was driving home with
a load Of feed on the west road about
8 o'clock and as he crossed the high
line man doomed up out of the dark
ness and fred two shots at him. Mon
son tumbled off the load and struck
the ground running. At his alarm on
reaching town the officers got out and
while they rounded up couple of sus'
picious characters, owing to the dark
ness Monson is not able to identify
either as being his assailant.
The team was later picked up on the
road home and the incident appears to
be closed. o.

NAM AND HORSE CAUGHT IN FIRE

Fessenden, Sept Pin most I'M
usual accident Louis Boese, living two
miles southwest of Manfred, was badly
burned and will lose three or four
horses of six-horse team which he
was driving to pillow.
Boese was engaged in blowing un-
der a field of lodged grain that he had
been unable to cut and had set fire
to the straw and then gone ahead with
the blowing. When the lead horses
of the team struck the smoke from
the fire they turned and threw the
entire team into confusion. All the
horses were covered with cloth fly
nets and when the driver was unable
to extricate them before the fire
swept over them the nets were burn.
| ed off Boese was badly burned about
the face and hands and it seems Ger
! tain that three of the horses will die

ENGINE BURNED BY FIRE
IN THE STRAW PILE

Sherwood, Sept. 27.-Jas. Murray's
threshing engine was burned while ne
was threshing at Herman Budkes
southwest Of Sherwood.
The machine had just started at this
setting and load of straw had been
thrown on the ground at one side OF
the engine and tender. In some way
the fireman dropped some burning
straw from the firebox while feeding
it and in a moment the engine and
tender were enveloped in sheet Of
flames. Mr.. Murray was at the cook
car, some go rods off, and the engineer
was away; the water tank and jocket
were burned of and several bookings
melted; it will be several days before
necessary repairs can be made SO that
the engine can be used again.

WORK FOR NORTH
DAKOTA HOMES

(Farm Information Service, N. D. Elk
pertinent Station.)
Miss May Mcdonald has been put
in charge of the woman's work in the
extension department of the North Da-
kota experiment station. Miss Nc
Donald has for the last year been d.
rector of the woman's work in the ex-
tension department of the Missouri
agricultural college, during which time
she organized the work. Movable
schools were conducted and home
makers associations organized. These
held monthly meetings. Programs were
prepared for them and speakers sent
out as they could be provided. Her
observations were that through such
organizations the women began to
study their own problems more and
that they learned from each other.
This in connection with the informa-
ton and guidance furnished by the ex-
tension workers lead to a good deal
being accomplished in the home meet
ings. Home making was regarded as a
profession. No detail so small but that
it was worthy Of study and discussion.
Miss Mcdonald received her train
ing in the University of Minnesota and
Columbia university. She was on the
home economics faculty at Minnesota
four years and at MISSOURI in ad-
dition to being director Of woman's
work in the extension department. was
also assistant professor of home econ
omics in the home economics depart
ment of the university

ments bank-had year ago twenty
million dollars of gold in it's vaults. To-
day it has forty million. A year ago
1t had issued paper money to the ex-
tent of five and half million beyond
it's deposits, while today with the same
amount of paper currency in circula-
ton, it has reserve of three million
dollars. g..
Deposits in private banks are at
present thirty million dollars greater
than a year ago on the same date.
These banks had to their credit IN for
eign banks 100000 last year. This
year they have ten millions. The war
has thus brought Norway food tide
of prosperity, and if government action
is taken to reduce the present prices
and provide the poorer people with
food, Norway will have little to lose
and a great deal to gain from long
war.
Norway's friendship for England
and the fact that she has had less to
complain of in the restriction Of i'm
ports than Sweden, have made her
trade question a much less serious one
than in her sister country. Her chief
grievance against England remains the
English censorship of her mail and
cablegrams to America and other neu-
trail countries. Norway is still trying
to devise a more direct and speedier
communication with America.

the cellar and was Just in time to see
three men making their escape
through a cellarway on the north side

ever they had stolen horse from
Ed Bengston and got good start and
SO far have not been captured.
The three are now believed to be
