The United States Depart

the country to double poultry
production next year. That can
be done if the farms will keep
an average of 100 hens instead
of 40 hens, as at present, and if
every family in town will keep
enough hens in the backyard to
produce all the eggs used by
that family,-or two hens to
each person.

only difference is that when COM

wishing to make final proof can do
so at Fort Yates before U. s. Com

Local Happenings

The storm week ago Sunday
did about $500 damage at the Stiles
Cattle Company ranch north of
Fort Yates. Wagons were over
turned, hay racks broken and the
wind raised havoc in general about
the place.
Last Thursday, June 14th was
Flag Day. The occasion was OBJ
served by the pupils Of the Fort
Yates Agency Boarding school who
formed line of march from the
school to the Agency flag staff where
appropriate exercises were carried
out.
G. P. Burnstad and family and
Willis Cranston and family of Pol
lock, were here Sunday on pleas
ure trip. Mr.. Burnstad is now
making his home on his ranch on
the Missouri river bottom west of
Pollock, which he recently bought.

Miss Media Mclaughlin, one of
the assistant nurses at the Agency
hospital, went to Mclaughlin
Thursday evening for a visit with
her parents. She accompanied her
uncle, Chas. Mclaughlin, who was
enroute to Mcintosh on official bus
mess.
Albert Kast who left here some
time ago with the ferry boat Ida on
it's way to Elbowoods, returned last
week from Garrison, where he left
the boat in charge of his father j.
H. Kast, who will take it to its des-
tination which they expect to reach
the first of the week.
Berg, Hokanson & Turner finish
ed their farming operations Mon
day, having completed breaking
and seeding to wheat and flax 275
acres. The early planted crop is
up fine and they are looking for
ward to big returns if favorable
conditions continue. !
Sioux County pioneer. (Fort Yates, Sioux County, N.D.) 1914-1929, 1917-06-21

All crops are reported looking
fine except winter rye which is thin
in places, no doubt due to the
hard winter, which probably killed
the roots in spots where it was not
covered with snow. Seeding flax is
still under way, but as the ground
is getting dry it is not probable
that much more breaking will be
done unless a soaking rain should
fall within the next few days.
There is plenty moisture in the
ground at present and what is need
ed mostly now is warm weather
with frequent showers.
Sioux County pioneer. (Fort Yates, Sioux County, N.D.) 1914-1929, 1917-06-21

The county auditor recently had
connection with the levying of a
tax for the support of insane
patients, and finds that there are
no patients in the state insane hos
pital from Sioux county. In this
connection it may be interesting to
note that Sioux county has no in
mates in the penitentiary or any
other state institution. This is a
fine showing for Sioux county and
it is doubtful if this record can lie
equalled by any other county in
the state.

along the main Sereth line between
the mountains and the Danube in the
vicinity of Fundeni. Russian troops
in mass formation were thrown into
a storm attack yesterday afternoon
and evening after violent artillery
preparation. Here too, the Teutonic
lines were reached, during the Sec
ond effort but could not be Eeld by the
attacking forces. Deadly Austro-
German curtain of fire broke up the
main Russian attack, Berlin declares.
Greek Situation Serious
Elsewhere there has been little
fighting, so far as the current official
statements reveal. There are signs of
possible impeding activities of an
important nature, however, along the
front in Macedonia. In this connec-
ton it attaches to news agency reports
of the presence in Greece of General
Won Falkenhayn, former chief of the
German general staff and latterly in
command of important forces in the
Rumanian campaign. He is said to
have reached Larissa after having
travelled in a submarine from Kavala.
A report sent from Saloniki by the
correspondent of a Paris agency says
the Greek government is in constant
communication with Berlin by means
of wireless plant hastily constructed
at Larissa. Another report from a
correspondent with General Sarrairs
army declares the entente forces in
Macedonia are to be augmented pre-
liminary to an offensive which will
have for it's object the cutting of the
Berlin n-Constantinople railroad run
ming through Serbia, Bulgaria and
Turkey.
