From Saturdays Daily Press)
The second monthly luncheon
given under the direction of the
Para gould chamber of commerce at
the country club grounds yesterday
evening was more largely attended
and perhaps even more thorough
" enjoyed than the first event CT
this character given four weeks ago.
At the first luncheon only men
were invited. Yesterday the ladies
and children were asked to partici-
pate in the outing and they re-
sponded in large numbers A
menu of barbecued beef and NUT
ton, cleese, pickles, olives, fresh
tomatoes. onions, bread and soft
drinks was served by a committee
composed of C. w. Stedman, G. w
Highfill, Bob McHaney, Herschel
Nicely and Harry Jones.
Rev. A. c. Cloyes fittingly open
ed the festivities with an apprO-
pirate invocation, and following the
lur cheon Hon. M. P. Huddleston
delivered a short address in which
he emphasized the necessity OF
mail tanning the chamber of com
merce, incidentally stating that in
his travels over the state he found
the people residing in other cities
regarded Paragould as the most
progressive small city in Arkansas
Following Mr.. Huddleston, a
booster editorial appearing in yes
terGays issue of The Daily Press
was read by H. M. Jackson as a
most appropriate message for the
gathering.
AT the conclusion of this informal
program a committee of business
men went among the gentlemen
soliciting members for the chamber
of commerce and twenty new names
were added to the membership
roll.
It is the intention of the organi-
zation to hold monthly luncheons
at the country club during the
summer season.

Nettleton Store Robbed and Burned


The general mercantile establish

completely destroyed by fire this
morning about o'clock. When the
flames were discovered it was
found that the back door was open
and the fire under Roadway from
the center of the house, which led
everyone to believe that the place
had been broken into and robbed

SENTINEL BUTTE IS MAKING
MANY SADDLES FOR ARMIES

The Sentinel Butte Saddlery Co. is
always q busy place but more par
ticularly just now since the firm has
received 100000 contract from the
Studebaker Co. for saddles for the
allied armies of Europe. It will be
remembered that the Studebaker
people took a 100000 contract a
short time ago to furnish harness and
saddles for European companies and
their agents Immediately cast about
for the best places to sub-contract a
large portion of the work. They con-
tracted to supply frst-class saddles
and they knew that there was no
place in the United States where they
could procure better article than
from the Sentinel Butte Saddlery Co.,
the largest manufacturing company
in this line in North Dakota.
Manager F. w. Peterson has been
east the past two weeks getting an
additional crew of 8 to 10 saddle
makers and ordering the necessary
leather and other material for this
large contract. In fact, the main
stock of saddle leather was ordered
by wire before Mr.. Peterson went
into the Milwaukee and Chicago
markets. His business foresight told
him that there was bound to be a
sharp advance in the price of saddle
leather, and he was right, the price in
one day taking an enormous advance.
The advance in the price of both
harness and saddles is likely to be
quite marked in the spring. Mana
ger Blick of the Sentinel Butte Sad
dlery Co. at Dickinson is congratulate
ing himself that large stock of col
lars and harness was carried over as
he does not think it will be possible
to duplicate the prices paid for this
kind of stock last fall.
It is likely too that the price of
shoes and other leather goods will ad-
vance in price before long.

KNIFE RIVER RY. TO RUN
VIA MANNING AND FAYETTE

There are persistant rumors from
the country north that the Northern
Pacific Ry. Co. is now figuring on rum
ming a line from Werner up Knife
river via Manning and Fayette to
Sidney, Montana. The engineers
have found that to extend the Kildeer
line through the Bad Lands will cost
many millions of dollars on account
of the tunnels that would be required
in getting a good grade.
As near as can be learned it is the
great expense of construction that
keeps the Northern Pacific from ex-
tending west from Kildeer. 1t is re-
ported that the extension through the
Bad Lands from this point would
mean the construction of four or five
tunnels and that the expense for con-
structing so to 60 miles of road would
be enormous.
Just now the money market for big
enterprises is very tight and it will
likely be a year or two at the earliest
before the railroad company can float
bonds for new work. In the mean
time the engineers of the Northern
Pacific will try and find the most
feasible route through the Bad Lands.
An easy grade is one of the things
the company must have.
The Werner people are said to be
building considerably on the prospects
of getting division point in the
event that the Northern Pacific finally
accepts the Knife river route. The
water supply at Werner is fine, it is
said, and this of itself will be quite
a factor in determining the division
point. Werner is the first station
west of Halliday and has fine farm
ing country tributary. The town has
bank and an application in for a
second one and a newspaper is soon
to be issued there by Strang & Co.

the east half of 103, known formerly
as the Logging Camp range, are get

was originally purchased from the
Northern Pacific Ry. Co. by A. C.
Huidekoper of Mcadville, Pa.
The National Forest Reserve, some
times called the Roosevelt Reserve,
comprises a portion of the govern
ment land within the above men
toned area, where is located some of
the finest native pine timber within
the state.
The parties who are interested in
the Baker lease are w. H. Hanson,
Robert and Fred Hanson, J. w. Follis,
Jud Lebo, Frank Gore, John Tyler
and Dan Weaver They pay the
government 40c per head per year for

he went into Oregon last fall, taking

The National Forest Reserve is 80
miles south Of Medora. Since the
prairie fires were kept from sweep
ing this timbered country, the native
pines have been coming up in fine
shape
c. E. Everett, the veteran wolf
hunter of the Bad Lands, has his
homestead within this forest reserve
and G. w. Sargent Of Dickinson is
another gentleman who was fortunate
enough to get 100 acres of this gov
ernment land.
w. H. Hanson states that every one
out that way has one or more flowing
wells, and he is Of the opinion that if
A. C. Huidekoper had known that it
was possible to get flowing wells he
would never have parted with these
land holdings. ]. O. German has three
Of the artesian wells and Geo. Gerbig
has two. These gentlemen live on
the edge of the reserve.
The stockmen out south have been
bothered some by wolves at times,
but Mr.. Hanson is inclined to think
that the days of these animals are
numbered. A year or two ago
wolves were inocculated with mango
in Montana and the past winter two
or three without hair have been not
iced on the reserve. 1t is believed
that the mango disease will eventually
kill off the wolves.

NORTH DAKOTA TO BE
SIGNALLY HONORED AT EXPO.

President Moore of the Panama Pa
cifc International Exposition has in
formed the secretary in charge Of
the North Dakota building at the Ex-
position grounds at San Francisco,
that the formal dedication of the
building will be held on Tuesday,
March 18th, at 3 p. m. The repre-
sentative of the North Dakota Com
mission will be met at the Exposition
gates by President Moore and his es-
cort of band and military and the
line Of march will be taken up to the
completed North Dakota building on
the bay front, where Mr.. Moore will
publicly thank the state of North Da-
kota for participating in such fine
way in this great exposition.
1t is expected that large number
of the former residents of the state
of North Dakota, who are now re-
siding in California and other coast
states, will be present at the cere-
monies and it is hoped that all resi-
dents of North Dakota who intend to
visit the exposition during March will
time their visit so that they may par
ticipate in the event.
The above event should not be con-
fused with the North Dakota Day
which has been set for May 21st,
when Governor Hanna and the rest
of the North Dakota Commission ex-
pect to be at the North Dakota build
ing.
The secretary and staff of the
North Dakota building at the San

the exnoSition officials at q recention
held at the Fairmont hotel in San
Francisco, Thursday evening, Febru-
ary 18th, in honor of the foreign and

was one of the many functions of this
character that will be held during the
year in San Francisco and at the ex-

LAND SELLS READILY
At GOOD PRICES

The experience of Louis Petricka
the past two months indicates that
there is going to be. brisk demand
for farm lands I'm this part of the
state this year, and at prices consid-
erably higher than in former years.
Since the first Of the year Mr.. Pc
tricka has made four sales of farm
lands, aggregating $50 acres. The
highest price was paid by Raphael
Heidi, who took the east half of Sec
tion 25-1sS-97 at $26 per acre. Frank
Berger took the swA of the same
section at $25 per acre. Paul Jaseno-
vsky took 100 acres in section 2-14O-99
at $22 per acre. This land is 6 miles
north of Belfeld. Frank Tuhy bought
40 acres on Spring creek in Dunn
county at $25 per acre.
The thing that speaks best for the
above sales is the fact that the pur-
chasers are resident men who mostly
have land adjoining that recently ac-
quired. This shows that the men who
live in the country have faith in the
future development of the state and
appreciate the fact that they will
never have an opportunity to pur-
chase land as cheaply as at the pres
ent time.
