HOGS NEED sUCCULENT FEED
Pumpkins Are Excellent for Swine Be-
cause Seeds Are Especially Good
Worm Exterminators.

Pumpkins make good hog feed.
Hogs need a little succulence OF some
kind to keep them in good condition
and help them make the best use Of
grains. Pumpkins are especially good
for hogs because the seeds are excel
lent worm exterminators. Keep that
In mind.

N. B. BLACK TO LAUNCH
ANOTHER FARGO DAILY

Fargo, March 24.-Fargo is to get
third daily newspaper, according to
rumors current on the streets for the
past few days. Norman B. Black, for
several years business manager of the
Herald at Grand Forks, is the moving
spirit behind the new venture, it is
claimed, while other we'll known Far
go newspaper men are said to be con-
nected with the project.
1t has not been definitely ascertain
ed whether it is to be a morning or
an evening publication, those inter-
ested in the deal not being ready to
give out any definite announcement.
Mr.. Black was the manager of the
Good Government league, which dis
banded early in the year.

ALL BAWLED UP.

The following was handed us by
Ia subscribed and it seems good
enough to pass along, so here it is
Wedding and Auction are mixed.
A certain county paper in distant
state, like all other country papers,
get things mixed up occasionally
when a few galleys of type get pied,
and in this instance, here is what the
editor read in his paper after it was
printed, too late to kill it, but early
enough for the editor to get-well, he
was not home to callers for several
weeks.
William Neversweat, eldest son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Josiah Neversweat, was
disposed of at auction to Jennie Frost,
on my farm one mile west Of Coon
creek, in the presence of eleven
guests, including the following to-wit:
Fourteen mules, two Jersey COWS that
are fresh, with Rev. Knowitall tying
the nuptial knot, averaging 1913
pounds on the hoof. The beautiful
home was decorated with one billy
goat, four sulky plows, feed grinder,
set of double harness., nearly new, and
Hereford calf. Just as the cere-
mony was pronounced Meddlesome's
inspiring march was softly rendered
with one milch cow, two summer cal
yes and four Duroc Jersey pigs car
rying a bunch of flowers in her gown
made Of lightspring wagons, box OF
apples, eleven stacks of upland hay,
muslin lingerie, trimmed with 500
bushels of corn in the field and about
two acres of potatoes. The groom is
we'll known here and has always been
popular in the society Of seven calves
and IL Birkshire pigs. The bride is
accomplished of a splendid drove of
Poland China pigs with pedigrees.
Among the beautiful presents were
two sets of si'vcrvare, one 26ft. drag,
go-cart, housl lho.d goods and many
other things too numerous to mention.
The BRIDES travelling suit was about
100 grain sacks, one 8x12 tent, and a
complete camping outfit, almost new.
Terms, 9 month bankable paper bear
ing 21 spring colts not above men
toned. Free lunch for all the stock
has been kept inside and is in first
class condition. Mr.. and Mrs. Never
sweat will go to housekeeping with
forty rods of hog fence. Am retiring
from the farm and nothing is reserv-
ed. J. w. Blackhawk, owner, Otto

That Auction Sale ''RumOr"
More About That "RumOr."

More About mat RumOr."
The article which has appeared in
several of the county's "kept press"
that collector for the N. P. League
had spent several days in the vicinity
Of W.. Livesay's, northwest of Max
bass, telling the farmers not to bid
on the stuff at Livesay's sale, because
Sandstrom was the auctioneer is
lie out of whole cloth. Mr.. H. M.
Larson was the N. P. organizer in that
locality and both he and farmers
present deny that Mr.. Larson ever ad-
vocated such tactics or even intimat-
ed such.
These false reports are to be ex-
pected from the prostituted press and
are really beneath answering and all
league members should see that their
local paper, having printed this ar
ticle, correct it or show evidence to
prove it.

NORTH DAKOTA MAN
SLEEPS BY THE MONTH

Chicago, March 24.-Simon Thomp-
son, 81 years old, has slept almost un-
brokenly for month at the Psycho-
pathic hospital and physicians today
were awaiting his awakening that
they may attempt to cure the drowsi-
ness which has afflicted Thompson
for years.
The present slumber Of the patient
is not his longest sleep. According
to his son, DR.. John F. Thompson, his
father once fell asleep on load of
hay which he was hauling to the barn
and did not awaken until after the
first snowfall, three months later.
Some physicians have diagnosed the
ailment as autointoxication.

ARTHUR MILLOY DOES NOT
THINK MUCH OF LEAGUE
Bottineau Courant:-

Bottineau Courant:-
I see in the Willow Vale News that
I and Henry Balm are the only ones
in the township that did not join the
league. This is not the only thing
we are proud of. We have lived in
the township thirty years and never
went through bankruptcy or never
contracted a debt we did not pay.
I did not join the league-I could
see nothing to join any more than a
socialist howl though I never oppos-
ed them until they tried to get H. B.
"A through the legislature. I saw
then their aim was to rob every
farmer who owned a piece of land in
the state and hand it over to a bunch
of crooks. I do not favor the idea
of the farmers going into the packing
house business for the simple reason
there is not one in thousand who has
any experience along these lines. I
never cared to go into a game I could
not play.
There is North Dakota packing
house stock on the market now and
any man who wants to buy it has all
kinds of chances to invest his money.
haven't bot any of it or don't intend
to. My idea is I can buy it cheaper
later on. I expect it will be on a
par with the other bogus stock that
has been sold in the state in years
gone bye and today it is not worth
the paper it is written on. If the N.
P. people want to buy this property
let them buy it, and not drag the. 9th
er people into it. When the farmers
of North Dakota organize and cut out
socialism and graft and get the right
man at the head of it, that will work
for the farmers and for the state at
large, I will join. don't believe in
boycotting any mans business. A
square deal or nothing for me.

IRON ORE DISCOVERED
ON O. S. SVEE'S FARM

O. S. Svee discovered vein of iron
ore while digging a we'll on his farm
last week. The vein is about 20 foot
thru and the ore averages from 40 to
go per cent iron.
Investigation will be made to find
out how wide the vein is and whether
it will pay to put in a mine. Should
the vein prove to be paying propo-
sition the probabilities are that Mr.
Svee will put in an outfit of machin-
cry and work it. Mr.. Svee is an old
iron miner and understands iron min
ing from start to finish. Let us hope
that the vein will be paying propo-
sition and that Mr.. Svee will prosper.

Morning Blaze.

Hotel Ruford, the leading hotel at
Lansford and one of the best hotels
in this section of the state, was COM

quantity of bedding was saved.
Besides the contents of the hotel,
several expensive billiard tables in
the billiard room were consumed by
the flames.
The fire is supposed to have orig

defective chimney.
The hotel was owned by w. H.

Il Disgraceful Report.


A Renville township reader of the
Courant submits the following rela-
tive to the Westhope Standard item,
regarding the alleged activities of a
League organizer at the Livesay auc-
tion sale:
"The Westhope Standard wakes
quite eloquent over the fact that the
farmers did not bid we'll at the w. J..
Livesay sale. It is we'll that the STAN
dard qualities it's articles with such
remarks as lit is reported" and eff
the above report is founded on facts,
etc."
There was no disturbance created at
the Livesay sale except one man who
had imb;bed too freely Of Prohibition
Tonic. H was rather noisy and made
some remarks about bill AZ, somewhat
to the annoyance of the Senator Auc-
tioneer.
It is also fact that majority of
the farmers present did not bid at
the sale. Not on account Of any COL
lector for the Nonpartisan League
but because of a deep seated resent
ment on the part of vast majority
of farmers against the man whom
they have repeatedly honored and who
has misrepresented them in the Leg
islature. The farmers did not bid
because they did not feel like bidding,
and they are not asking the advice
of the chief quill pusher Of the West
hope Standard as to when, where and
how they shall spend their money.
Will the Standard please tell us,
by the way, what it thinks of a man
who will consent to cry a sale for a
man when he knows, if his client does
MT, that he cannot get anything near
what the stuff is worth. If Sand
strom didn't know that he hasn't as
much sense as we give him credit
for, and if he did not know it before
he doubtless knows it now. The farm
ers Of Bottineau county have Sand
strom's number and he is dead goose
