HOME CREAMERY

We notice :. mat Grand Forks is sending
<,ut literature relative to building up
home industries and among other
things advises farmers to shin their
cream to the creamery at Grand Forks
instead of shipping to Minneapolis or
other points. This is all right, pro-
vided you don't have creamery near
home. But farmers Of Ramsey coun-
ty and the Lake Region do not have
to ship their cream to Grand Forks or
any other point further away, for the
reason that right here at home in De-
wills Lake we have a first class cream
cry, and one who pays the highest
price of your cream. The Danvang
creamery has beensestablished here for
several years and Is naking bowling
success of it's business: It will take
all the cream you will ship, and pay
you the highest cash price. The ex-
press will be less and you will get
quicker returns than you would if you
shipped farther. It is an institution
that the Lake Region feels proud of
and is deserving of your patronage.

= Washington, April 3.-Disregard-

alleged price fixing by an inquisitor-

ONLY-A-DAD.

Only a dad, with tired face
Coming home from the daily race,
Bringing little gold or fame
To show how we'll he has played the
game,
But glad in his heart that his own re-
joice
To see him come and hear his voice.
Only dad Of a brood of four,
One of ten million men or more;
Flooding along in the daily strife,
Bearing the whips and scorns of life
With never wimper of pain or hate.
For the sake of those who at home
await
Only dad, neither rich nor proud,
Merely one of the surging crowd;
Toiling and striving, from day to day,
Facing whatever may come his way;
Silent, whenever the harsh condemn,
And bearing it all for the love of them.
Only dad, but he gives his all
To smooth the way for the children
small,
Doning, with courage stern and grim
The deeds that his father did for him;
This is the line that for him pen;
only a dad, but the best Of men.

General Pershing's report, received

A PECULIAR WELL IN FLORIDA

In their investigation of the wells
and underwriters of Florida the Geolo-
.gists of the United States Geological
Survey have noted many interesting
things. Among these is well at
Welaka, on St. Johns River, from
which two kinds of water are OBJ
obtained.
This we'll is 800 feet deep. The
length of the casing is 110 feet. The
well was drilled to 100 feet, and from
this depth ordinary "sulpher" water
was obtained. The drill was then
carried to a depth of 800 feet, where
it encountered a strong mineral water,
having a disagreeable, salty taste. In
order to use both kinds of water an
inner tube was run nearly to the bot
tom of the we'll. Both this and the
outer castings were connected with
pumps, so that ordinary water and
mineral water can be pumped at the
same time. A Favorite joke played
on visitors is to give them drink Of
the weaker water in the first glass
and then to replace it with the brine
in the second.
Not more than half a dozen wells of
this kind are known in the coutry, but
there is no reason why similar wells
can not be obtained in regions where
the waters in the upper strata differ
from those lying deeper.

INTERESTING LETTER '..'
FROM WISCONSIN.

Below we publish letter written bv
~ E' Patton, of Fon Du Lac, Wis, to
Captain E. E. Herman of this citv.
This letter is published by the kind
permission of the Captain and we feel
sure will be Of much interest to the
people of this county and state as it
tells of the conditions at very early
period:
Fond Du Lac, Wis, March 81.
E. E. Herman,
Dear Sir: I am glad to let you
know how Devils Lake was in 1861, in
latter part of August that year. We
left st. Paul on our trip, the country
from st. Cloud, Mimi, north and west
at that time had never been tickled
with a plow: All streams and lakes
were full of water right up to the
grass roots. The Red River at that
time was fine stream, lots of fish,
plenty of Elk in the timber that skirt
ed the river. We crossed the Red at
a trading post and is now known as
Georgetown, and made a straight air
line route with our covered 2-horse
wagon. Two Red River and two
wheeled carts and four buffalo-run-
ming ponies, six of US in the party
passing over what Is now the Dalrym-
pie farm, Elm and Goose rivers. On
reaching the Sheyenne river where
Steel County now is, We found it to be
Utterly alive with beaver. In two or
three days we reached Warmdushka
Lake. now called Stump Lake; not
Stump could we see at that time, chuck
full of water. Here we found our first
buffalo; four old bulls, We killed one.
His meat was like eating sole leather.
Later on We got younger animals and
the meat was o. k. q.
We camped on the South side of De-
wills Lake, exactly where Ft. Totten
now is. The lake at that time was
!! right up TO the grass roots. The water
was brackish. We caught few pick
erel, medium size. We did not see
any other kind of fish in the lake: We
did not go on the north shore. When
l was there five years ago,'I vent, 1
should say, twenty rods, rom ..the r.
R. depot and easily found the Did or
iginal water line. The slffink&ge of
the water in the lake is this way. Be-
fore the soil in all naw Countries is
broken up the water r,1hs often TO the
creeks, lakes, etc. But just as abon as
Mr.. Farmer came and began H plow
this surface water stopped running off
and went into the earth locally. We
found no outlet from Devils Lake or
none from Wamdushlaa lake. My
private opinion is that in time, it will
be dry or nearly so. Ths water briny,
brackish makes the suns srayt, draw
the water much more than If The The water
was fresh. If lots ek, trees could be
planted all around the lake> and get to
growing, I think it ,would.'be big
help.
I would like to be there this sum-
mer and take a ride on your boat.
Look out and not let any submarines
or torpedoes hit the Lady Of the Lake.
About 1880 the water in the lake
started to shrink and at that time
farming started in North Dakota.
Yours truly, =.
G. .E. Patton.

pendent school district board In an
action brought through the office of
the attorney general by the State Nor
NAL school Of Valley City to collect
tuition fees amounting to 1874.
The claims of the plaintiff are that
according to the state law the Normal
school is entitled to tuition as set
forth in their action. The board mem.
ners Of the public school do not be-
aieye the law is clear or definite
enough to call for tuition to be paid,
and their attorney, A. p. Paulson, will
be instructed to carry the matter to

At Minot there is an arrangement
whereby the students OF the normal
school are allowed to 60 into the pub

OF tuition. If this method prevailed
here there probably would have been
no action brought. According to state.

Lutheran Aid
Showered Their Pastor

Friday afternoon the ladies of the
Swedish Lutheran church, in harmony
with their liberal and generous spirit,
had arranged for a fruit shower on
Rev. and Mrs. Martell A great
abundance of canned fruit, butter, COT
fee and other things were presented
by the ladies'. Rev. and Mrs. Martel1
had just arrived home from a visit at
Leal when the surprisers all came to
the parsonage loaded down with good
things to eat. With food products and
other things at almost prohibitive
prices the gift was indeed doubly well
come. The pastor and his wife have
very often been remembered thus by
the thoughtful congregation. It is
very encouraging to know that one
has the sympathy and good will of the
church members. The work is thus
rendered more congenial. The pastor
and his wife thoroughly appreciated
the kind and liberal donation and
thank the givers very heartily. Rev.
and Mrs. Martell were also asked to
the church parlors, where the ladies
had delicious refreshments prepared.
After refreshments very pleasant So
cial hour was enjoyed by all present.

Wood Prize
at Sanborn Fair Joke

Sanborn Enterprise: F. A. Click,
who has been foreman of the Enter
prise for some time, is native of the
Tar Heel state. He has been sending
a copy Of the Enterprise to his sister
in North Carolina and she has been
an interested reader of the local news
One item, which particularly excited
her curiosity, was the offer by one of
our business men of half cord of
wood to the farmer coming the great
est distance to attend our recent fair.
Miss Click, who lives in a section OF
country where every farmer has more
wood of his own than he can use, re-
garded this as a joke. She was not
aware that all the fire wood used in
this section is shipped from Mime
sofa, distance of two or three hun
dred miles by rail, at high rate of
freight, and that it is not only scarce
commodity, but costly as we'll. Good
wood sells at SO cord with hauling
extra, and every farmer would like to
have joke like the gift of half cord
Of wood played on him.
