one mile west Of Des Laos, has in

most unique contrivances and at the

From these sprocket wheels a chain

the outfit is complete. With this rig
he plows on an average of seven acres
per day, travelling at the speed of three
miles per hour. He can unlock from
the pillow and take load Of grain to

Dislocated Big Toe
on Concrete Bottom

Last Sunday a party of Valley City
people went up the river for picnic.
Later in the day they decided to cross
the river, and as the water at that
point is shallow, took off their foot
gear to wade across. One of the gen.
tlemen, carrying his wife, had just en-
tered the water, when one of the ladies
kicked him in that portion of the
anatomy where the kicking is best.
A scream of pain followed from the
kicker and it was found that her big
toe was dislocated. After first aid
had been given she was brought home.
Later in the week the kickee called
up to inquire as the the kicker's con-
dition, whereupon she informed him
that while she had heard of men with
castiron constitutions, she had never
before met a man with a concrete
bottom. This rejoinder has added
considerably to the gayety of the ma
lions hereabouts.

North Dakota Boy Makes
Fortune on Pacific Coast

The following story of the success
OF former North Dakota boy Is told
by the Aberdeen News: William
Mandigo, a ne'er-do-well lad Of Ellen
dale, left this section of the country
for San Francisco just 16 years ago.
Last night he stopped off to visit with
his old chum, Fred Cannon, Of this
city, a hustling young man Of 80 years
whose fortune is now written in seven
figures.
The story of young Mandigo's climb
from poverty to the position of a mil
lionaire fruit rancher of California
reads like a fairy tale. With but a
common school education and doing
odd jobs with an Indifferent and happy
go lucky spirit in the North Dakota
town, the boy, responding to a spell Of
wanderlust, struck out for California
with measly capital of SIS. From
digging cellars on small contract
basis he advanced to a position in a
real estate office in the downtown dis.
trict of San FRANCISCO. Adaptability
and studious devotion to the real
estate business brought rapid success
and he accumulated a fortune of $780,
900 only to have his fortune wiped
out by the, big fire.
Hard hit, but with lots of fight left,
young Mandigo selected Seattle as a
place Offering opportunities in his
line. Striking that city just before
the big boom his knowledge of the
real estate game proved a veritable
gold mine and in a few years he had
made $4,000 N commissions.
The sale of the tide water lands to
the Milwaukee railway company net
ted him 100000 and this sum he put
into fruit lands in California
He left Aberdeen today for the east
to purchase machinery for one of the
largest canning factories on the Paci-
fic coast.

Plague Visited
Halstad, MINI.

Halstad, Mimi, Sept. With ten
cases of infantile paralysis existing in
this city, four of which developed dur
ing the past week, and two deaths re-
sulting in the same period Of time,
the worst epidemic which has ever
visited this city now prevails and the
city is under quarantine.
According to DR.. A. Oftedahl, there
is no panic as the result of the rapid
spread of the malady, but it is feared
that the epidemic is not under control
and further fatalities may result.
The city has been placed under
quarantine, children are prohibited
playing in the streets and every pos
sible precaution is being taken to pre-
vent further spread.
