PIGMENT BED FOUND IN N. D.
Discovery May Revolut;onize Paint
lnduatry of the World.

Discovery May Revolut;onize Paint
Industry Of the World.
Dickinson.-The discovery of vast
pigment beds in North Dakota may
revolutionize the paint business OF the
world. The pigment beds lie west OF
Dickinson, N. D., in the Bad Lands, on
the Northern Pacific railroad. An op-
ton on 1000 acres owned by George
R. Slocum, of st. Paul, has been taken
by James T. Tucker of Calgary, Can.
who discovered the pigment beds. II
the pigment is of the character stated
by Mr.. Tucker, he has been promised
$2,OOO,OOO backing by bankers and
wholesale houses who are interested
in the business.
If the pigment proves to be the same
as that which comes from Austria and
Northern Italy, the paint business of
the world will be changed on account
of the vast fields known to exist in the
Bad Lands.
If the samples prove to be what is
known as American pigment nothing
will come of the venture as there is
no market for that product among
paint manufacturers.
The fields discovered by Mr.. Tucker
are the result of years of burning OF
the Ignite coal fields in the Bad Lands.
Pigment to make paints of every color
in the rainbow are in the fields and
some excellent paint has been made
from the pigment by mixing 1t with
linseed oil, it is stated.
A thorough test and analysis by the
best chemists in the Northwest to de-
termine its value. If it is valuable
large factory will be erected at once.

CLOSED SEASON URGED
TO PRESERVE CHICKENS
Protection Necessary II Determination
Of Game Birds in N. D. 10 to Be Pre-
vented Fargo Hunters Assert.

Streeter.-"North Dakota must es-
tablish closed season on prairie chic
kens or the birds will be extinct with
in very short time," declared Fred
Irish, vice president Of the First Ma
tional bank of Fargo, who hunted in
the Streeter district with DR.. F. H.
Bailey of Fargo.
"This section, formerly huntsman's
paradise, is almost denuded of chick.
ens," continued Mr.. Irish. 1--WE shot
IA chickens in two days, and of those
only one was of this years broods. Bad
weather during the Matching season
for the past two years has been res
ponsible for reducing the prairie chick
en- supply.
"The three northwestern states
Minnesota, North and South Dakota
should all declare a closed season,
else chickens will be a thing of the
past in a very short time"

WHISKY IN FENCE POSTS

Novel Way Of coneeallno "1lock.
AIDE Corn"

The versatility Of the dispenser Of
moonshine whisky in Atlanta. Ca, is
shown by a recent exposure when Is
pints Of BLOCKADE corn" were dis
covered in hollow fence posts in the
rear Of barber shop. The posts were
standing about IL feet above the
ground. They were so big and square
that they aroused the suspicion Of
the detectives. One Of them tapped
q post with his leather billy. It gave
forth a hollow sound and the invest.
cations were pushed further.
Ten holes. each large enough to hide
and each hiding two pint bottles Of
liquor, were found in the posts. The
originator of the ingenious storing
place had taken an auger and after
boring the holes large enough to hold
two pints, had covered the posts with
fence planks in regular high board
fence manner.
