New Rockford, July 15.-The com
mon law marriage of Peter M. Kittel
son, killed here several months ago

sisters of the dead man, who effected
settlement with Mrs. Lottie Kittel

titled her to share of the estate
She originally sought the statutory al
lowance provided under North Dakota
laws of the first $4,000 and half OF
the balance.

interested, are Chris Kittleson, Ole T

Rogers Cancels Sunday
Came--Team Disbanded

The game of baseball that was
scheduled between Rogers and Hank
inson Sunday at Rogers was called off
on account of the threatening wealth
er and bad roads. The expense OF
bringing the Hankinson team was too
great with the roads in such poor con-
dition, and as that was the last game
of the season for the Rogers team
they disbanded Sunday evening.
The Rogers team has been very sue.
cessful this year and gave the patrons
good exhibitions wherever they ap.
peared. Rogers is one town in Barnes
county where the national pastime is
featured with strong team every sea-
son, and we hope to see them in the
field next year with their usual ag'
gressive contingent.

Nursery Company Getting Many
Strawberries From Small Tract

Recently the Times-Record men.
toned that the Northwest Nursery
had in ten acres of Progressive Ever.
bearing strawberries just east of the
river, which it was expected would
yield about 1000 crates before the
vines froze down.
The nursery people have been sup.
plying berries of the finest quality to
the local merchants for the past week.
The high-Water mark was reached
Monday forenoon, when they picked
20 crates, or 480 boxes. From this
time on they will have scads of ber-
ries every day. They are better than
any berries shipped in because they
have ripened on the vines and are
picked fresh every day.
These everbearing berries are
something new. The Progressive was
originated by Mr.. Rockwell, of Iowa,
about 1900, but has only recently been
placed on the market in commercial
quantities. A recent article in the
Country Gentleman explains that the
only difference between the everbear.
ing and the old berries is the neces-
sity for plenty of plant food, due to
the great number Of berries produced.
This is easily met by the use of ma
nure or fertilizer, together with plen'
ty of cultivation to keep the weeds
from robbing the berry plant. With
this care they can be raised anywhere
where the older berries grew. The
Progressives are kept from bearing
till July by pinching off blossoms and
runners, after which they bear con-
tinuously till frozen down in the fall.
BY the way, the Nursery company
is getting to be one of the big institu-
tons of Valley City. They have 440
acres, covering both sides of the river
from the plated portion of the city
clear to the 500 tracks. East of the
river they own all the land west of the
500 track between the N. P. tracks on
the south and the 500 tracks on the
north, except the grounds of the
county hospital. One indication of the
public spirit which actuates the Off
GERS of the company is the laying out
of a boulevard along the west bank of
the river to the Chautauqua grounds.
When the trees shall have attained
any considerable growth this will be
one of the prettiest drives in the city.
During the session of the Chauatu-
qua just closed the grounds of the
company, with their acres of roses,
peonies and other flowers, and the
thousands of fruit and shade trees,
have been so attractive as to draw
the attention Of all and the result will
undoubtedly be seen in orders this
fall and next spring.

ments were served and Miss Dewey

lightful manner.

day for Minneapolis, preparatory fol-
a steamer trip down the Mississippi
river early in the week. Later she

her brother and sister at Brownton
Mimi, before returning to her work
in the offices of the Phelps-Eastman
company, of Minneapolis, where she
has been employed for years.
Miss Schwartz is an accomplished
and delightful young lady and while in
the city made many friends who will
be delighted to see her when she de-
cides to visit Valley City again.

LOTUS Died
Sunday Night

George S. LOTUS, sales manager Of
the Equity Cooperative Exchange,
died Sunday night at $50 o'clock at
the home of his sister in st. Paul af-
ter an illness of almost year.
The death of Mr.. Lotus, while not
unexpected, comes as great shock to
a large number of people over the
state Of North Dakota, especially so to
the members of the Equity, whose bat
ties Mr.. Lotus had been fighting
since he became connected with the
organization.
A telegram received Monday morn
ing by VIM. Olson from J. G. Critics
stated that Mr.. LOTUS suffered terri
bly, toward the last, his ailment being
one that caused great suffering all
during his illness. His death was due
to cancer of the bowels.
Mr., Lotus was 43 or AZ years of
age. He leaves wife, three daugh'
tiers and one son, in the immediate
family, all of whom we're with him at
the time of his death. The deceased
was born in Wisconsin. For num-
Der of years he was connected with
one of the leading western railroads
ana was COuSlucTcu OuS VI IAC 6AOoI-
est rate experts of the northwest. At
ter leaving the railroad business LOT
tus entered the commission business,
being an active member of the firm
of the Loftus-Hubbard Co. In July,
1912, he became sales manager OF the
Equity, and after his connection with
that organization, travelled consider
ably throughout the state OF North
Dakota, where he became known to
practically every farmer of the COM
monwealth.
Mr.. Lotus was taken ill at Minot, on
Aug. 5, 1915, and since that time had
steadily declined. He went to Florida
q, for his health, spending all of last
winter there. There were several
times during his illness that he was
not expected to live, but his remark
able constitution pulled him through
on each occasion.
The death of Mr.. Lotus takes from
the Equity one of it's most active
workers.

one of the first pieces Of government
land filed on in this neighborhood.

Mrs. Washington Tells
the Story Of Tuskegee

Mrs. Booker T. Washington, wife of
the late founder of Tuskegee Institu-
ton at Tuskegee, Ala, occupied the
interest of Chautauquans Thursday af-
ternoon, when she told something of
the history and aims of that institu-
ton. Mrs Washington is one of the
most cultured women of her race and
modest in the relating of facts with
which she and her husband have been
so prominently connected.
She told of how the institution was
founded some 80 years ago by her hus-
band in an old abandoned church,
where Mr.. Washington, as teacher,
found it necessary to hold an umbrel-
la over him to conduct his classes
when it rained. That little school
house in one lifetime has grown to an
institution numbering 107 buildings.
There are now 1000 pupils and 200
teachers and the estate covers over
5000 acres.
The current expenses of the institu-
ton amount to 100000 year. Of
this amount, $1S0,OOO is insured by
the endowment and permanent income
Of the school. The remainder must be
canvassed each year.
Mrs. Washington said that the insti-
tute was not to be compared to man.
ual training school, but that it was an
industrial school where students learn
ed by doing the thing actually taught.
All of the principal trades are taught.
Most of the buildings were built by
the students themselves, even the
bricks being made by them.
The vast estate is farmed by the
students of agriculture, which is a
subject studied by both young men
and women. Cooking and housekeep-
ing are subjects that the young women
study, also, during their entire course.
The institution supports commun-
ity school where poor parents are
taught as we'll as their children. There
is also an agricultural short course
and such other courses that might be
expected in an uptodate school plant
Graduates are now scattered all over
the south and the vast majority are
doing we'll.
Undoubtedly Tuskegee Institute has
done great things for the negro in the
south. Mrs. Washington, who is still
connected with its administration, has
taken the lecture platform since the
| death Of her husband to picture the
possibilities in such an institution to
show the public in remote parts Of
the country what it is accomplishing
and thus to gain its confidence. Her
J address was much enjoyed.
