Any Child Can Fly IN
Southerner S Airbike

Birmingham, Ala, Aug. 26.-A new
model flying machine which promises
to be startling innovation in ayia-
ton has been invented by Grover
Cleveland Tucker OF Perry county,
who recently patented a boil weevil
picking machine that is selling at 500
each as fast as the foundry can turn
them out.
fuckers parents are farmers and
his education was confined to the pub
lie school.
His success with the boil weevil
machine was phenomenal He leaped
from moderate circumstances to
wealth and influence in few months,
selling over 100000 worth OF the ma
chimes.
Tucker in the meantime was work
ing on his model for flying machine.
His idea has eliminated the motor,
the machine being propelled by the
driver and guided by simple contri-
vance.
A child can use it with safety.
fuckers model has been used by his
little daughter, who easily flies about
the fair grounds at Greensboro. The
machine can be manufactured for
500 for capacity Of one person.
Government engineers and agents
of capitalists have failed in their ef-
forts to see the model or purchase any
Of it's rights. fuckers attorney has
gone to Washington to procure
patent rights and he, with the inven-
tor, will market the machines.

RAIL STRIKE
SET FOR LABOR DAY

fiat refusal of his plan Of settlement
This statement has been signed by
all the executives, but its presenta
ton was withheld in the interests Of
peace. President Wilson was inform
ed verbally of it's terms, however.
After their conferences with Mr.
Wilson, the executives gave out q
statement in which they said they had
laid before the president suggestion
'in the nature of proposition fol
progress toward a solution of the
question at ISSUE"
Although it seems certain that
there will be opposition from republic
cans in congress to the legislative
suggestions of the president, admin
istration leaders think it will be pos
sible to get the laws through within
a reasonable time. -,m
The visit of the brotherhood heads
to the White House came within an
hour after the president had left the
capitol. They hurried from their no
tel on foot to the executive mansion
and arrived shortly after z o'clock
while the president was at dinner
Their conference with the president
was brief. He handed one copy oil
the railroad counter proposal to A. B
Garretson, spokesman for the en-
ployes and said that he would not dis
cuss it in any way. 1t is known, how
ever, that the brotherhood men gath.
cred that he did not strongly approve
of it.
On a separate sheet from the order
the duty of members and officers in
the conduct of strike are set forth.
Particular emphasis is placed on con-
Quoting the proposed strike as peace:
fully as possible. Among the duties of
members set forth are these:
mo man in road service involved
in the strike will perform any service
after the hour set to strike, unless he
has already begun a trip and has &C.
tually left the terminal. If the train
has left the terminal he will complete
the trip and deliver the engine and
train at the end of the run, or tie up
point If tied up under the law, after
which he will perform no further SER
vice until the close of the strike. Men
in other than road service will leave
the service at the appointed time.
$50 far as your legal right to strike
is concerned, there is no difference
between mail train and a freight
train. You have identieally the same
right to refuse to. perform service on
mail train as you have to refuse to
perform service on a freight train.
Gall men on strike will keep away
from the company's property except
such men as are designated certain
duties to be performed by authority
of the organization.
Every man should understand that
the laws of the land must be obeyed.
Acts of violence of any nature will not
be tolerated by the organization"

Saws North Dakota Is No
Longer a 0ne-C State

Minneapolis, Aug. 26.-"North Da-
kota is no longer one crop state, and
there is no such thing as complete
crop failure there any MORE" said
Thomas P. Cooper, director of the
state agricultural experiment station
at Fargo, in Minneapolis today.
Failure of the wheat crop is a, SER
ious matter, but it does not mean to
the state what it did even in 1910.
Other farm products this year will
largely make up for the shortage in
wheat and fax, and the shortage will
stimulate the diversified farming
movement still more.
"The last government report, dated
Aug. 8, estimated the oats, barley, rye,
corn and potato crop this season at
$42,O00,000 more than in 1910. This
does not include forage crops. Corn
while less acreage than last year,
looks well and two weeks without
frost will mean corn crop five times
as great as 1910. Hay, especially al
falfa and clover, are great crops this
year.
II estimate that livestock products,
as hogs, beef cattle, cream and butter,
sheep, wool, and horses for sale, will
bring the, state $16,OOO,OOO this year,
compared with $4,000,00O in 1910.
While in 1910 the state sold only Co.
900 hogs, last year it sold 100000, and
this year will market an equal mum.
Der.
"Dairying has increased tremendous
ly, and there is a great interest this
year in sheep. Many sheep will be
brought from the ranges to feed on
poor wheat, either on shares or bought
outright. There is a great interest
among farmers, too, in breeding stock.
A poor wheat crop doesn't stop things
in North Dakota in these days, by a
long shot.
"The seed question is the most seri-
GUS one ahead. Good seed wheat is
going to be scarce and hard to get in
North Dakota next spring"

Slope Farmers 1 Will IL
Build 6O-Mle Road

Fargo, Aug. rs. The contract for
the preliminary survey of a railroad
from Dickinson to Amidon, proposed
for construction by the farmers and
business men of the territory affected,
was awarded yesterday to the Equity
En- gineering Co., of Fargo.
Preliminary estimates Ak the cost
Of constructing the line at about ST.
O00, 0O0-and the theory Of promotion
is to levy,a 81 assessment on each
acre Of farm lands within an area ten
miles back each sides Of the line
which will be about 60 miles long.
The topography Of the county is
heavy rolling, making the location Of
the line exceedingly difficult. The
grade will be two per cent necessi-
tating some heavy cuts and fills.
The Equity Engineering Co. will
start the preliminary survey as soon
as possible, SO as to prepare the way
for letting the contract some time
next winter. Actual construction may
begin next spring. the desire being to
complete the road as soon as pos
sible. III
This Is one Of the largest private
engineering contracts ever let in the
state, and was awarded to the Fargo
company In competition with d field. Of
five bidders.

Claims Bisbee Barn
Largest in State

Devils Lake, Aug. 26.-J. Halliday,
contractor of this city, has just COM
pleted for Hon. c. P. Peterson, who
resides on his farm of 1850 acres one
mile south of Bisbee, the largest
barn in the whole state Of North Da-
kota.
It is. SO feet wide and 10 feet long,
IA foot posts on the outside. The
rafters are exactly SO feet long. The
height from the peak OF the roof to
the ground is so feet, from the top
most point of the tower IS.
The hay loft, without an obstruction
of any kind, is As feet wide, 10 long
and ~ feet deep under the hay sling,
and will hold $50 tons Of loose hay and
nearly 100 tons Of straw, which will
feed his stock the whole year. The
floor is supported by a partition run
ming lengthwise of the building and 80
additional posts. There are four feed
alleys, and two driveways for clean
ing out. To build this mammoth struc-
ture it took $4,000 feet of lumber, co.
900 shingles, and the structure Is
we'll nailed, for upwards Of a ton
and half of nails were used. There
are AZ windows of eight lights,
which will give plenty of light at all
times. Almost a carload of cement
was used in the foundation.
The building will be lighted with a
Delco electric lighting plant in all di-
visions, so there is no danger Of it be-
ing burned by a COW kicking over the
lantern. Abundance of the finest wa.
ter will be pumped into the building
for the stock from q deep well just
outside of the building, a wind mill
being used for motor power. This is
a magnificent structure and for beau
ty and general layout is worth a
journey of many miles to see.

Half Million Acres
Broken Up In 1916 | J

Bismarck, Aug. 26--The total ac-
reage assessed in 1916 exceeds that Of
1915 by 423,872 acres, indicating that
more North Dakota land Is being cul-
tivated. The number Of acres in 1916

mended raise in the assessed valua-
ton of the four main railroads Of
$5,5OO,OOO.

four main roads at $55,997,405. The
commission recommended that this be
raised to $60,6S1.553 or Is per cent Of
the actual value Of the four lines.
The value was arrived at by taking
the gross earnings Of the roads for a
four-year period and after capitaliz-
ing these at Z per cent, apportioning
to North Dakota its share on the basis
of mileage, net earnings and gross
earnings.

The capitalization of the roads was
also taken into consideration and
North Dakota's share arrived at by
the same method.

advised by Dr.. Durand, former head
Of the federal census bureau, and ex-
pert engaged by the tax commission
in 1915.
The gross receipts of the four main
roads, Great Northern. Northern Pa.
Gifts, 500 line, and Milwaukee, in
creased so million dollars in 1916 over
the year ending. June 30, 1915. The
net earnings for the same period show

Wliston Militia Men Return

Williston, Aug. 26.-Arrested three
different times as deserters while
travelling from Mercedes, Texas to Will
liston, Leslie Grover and Robert Barn
father Of Company E, who returned
home last week from the Texas Dor.
der after failing to pass the federal in
spection, found more real excitement
on the trip home than they experience
ed in service along the Rio Grande.
Hardly were they started on their
homeward trip, which was made for
the most part on the top Of Pullmans
and on blind baggage, because their
combined capital consisted of only $17,
than their troubles began. Before
they were far from camp they were
halted by Texas Ranger who sus-
pected them Of being deserters, and
it was not until their discharge papers
were produced that they were allow
ed to continue. , 3;.
Twice more on their trip homeward
they were halted by officers but each
time their discharge papers which
they carried set them right, and they
were not only released but given q
boost on their way Train crews were
for the most part friendly and people
all along the way seem to have an
especially warm place in their hearts
for militiaman, say the local young
men.
That the North Dakota camp at
Mercedes is one Of the best in Texas
is the statement of both Grover and
Barnfather. They report conditions
Improving constantly, but admit that
the North Dakotans encountered
some hardships at first and suffered
consid erably with the hot weather and
poor water and food. But they declare
there are no sickness In the North Da
kota regiment and everybody set to
work with a will to put things right
and as a result the conditions are get
ting better right along. fl
