Judgment was recently filed in the

county in favor Of Mrs. Hattie Wade
and against William and Allie Major
Of NATION, Illinois. This judgment
gives Mrs. Wade the right to re-

redeem this land, just one day too
late according to law. Before going
to Amidon, Mrs. Wade had been at
Medora where she received legal adj
vice that she could redeem this land
in Billings county, in which the
land had been sold, and Of which the
new county Of Slope was later taken.
From Medora she came to Dickinson,
where Attorney j. p. Cain intructed
her to go Immediately to Amidon, the
proper place for redemption. On ac-
count of the bad roads she was unable
to get to Amidon. until one day late.
The case was later brought up in
district court, with the result that
decision was rendered in favor Of
Mrs. Wade. Now a certificate Of re-
demption has been issued.

gregate should range from IN inch

The sand should be coarse, hard
and clean, and graded from X inch
to fine, with the larger size predomi-
mating. Use great care in hand mix
ing. It is economical to buy a small
machine mixer. if the farmer intends
to use concrete in large quantities.
Hand Mixing.
Proper methods when concrete is
mixed by hand, using a two-bag batch
1. Size of measuring box for sand
should be 2 feet square by foot
high, thus containing 4 cubic feet.
2. Load sand in wheelbarrows and
wheel onto a mixing board.
8. Fill sand measuring box, lift
box and spread sand 4 inches thick
over board.
A. Take two bags of cement, place
contents as evenly as possible over
sand. 5s
s.. Turn the sand and cement over
until thoroughly mixed, SO that no
streakssof cement or sand appear.
6. Spread the mixture Of sand and
cement out carefully, place measur-
ing box beside it, and fill. twice with
stone or gravel, then empty onto sand
and cement. mixture and mix thor
oughly.
q. Add neutrality-suspicious. Of re-

8. Continue mixing, adding bal

until the whole mass has been turned
over three or four times. This should
be sufficient. After final turning
shovel into compact mass for wheel
ing to place.
Bank-Run Gravel.
Bank-run gravel is sometimes used
as it comes from the bank. This is
wrong, as no two places in a bank
will have the same proportions of
sand and pebbles. It is, therefore,
always essential when using bank-run
material to r the sand from the
gravel and remix in the proper pro
portions.

 OFFICIAL WORRY

New York. Feb. 2s-Ohcers of the White Star liner Cedric here today for the first time since November 1914, when she was requistioped by the British government as a transport for troops, declined to reveal anything concerning the government service in which the big trans-Atlan ntic liner has been engaged. It has, been reported that the steamer was used to carry troops to France, Egypt and the Oar danelles.
 The only outward sign of the Ce- dries use in the war was the gray war paint which GOV ared her super structure and the hinged steel plates which hid her ports so that she could pass unseen in the night.
 All her staterooms were removed when she was taken for transport ser vice. One row of them had been re- stored for the use of her officers. Her huge dining salon was used as a, drill hall for troops.
 The Cedric is unarmed and shows no signs of having had guns while equipped as a transport. She was re- leased by the Admiralty to carry war munitions andl supplies from this country to England but is still ready for transport service when desired
