OF all the candidates out for coun-
ty Offices this year we do not be-
lfave that there is more popular
one in the bunch than Thos. Peter
SON of Carter township, who has al
ready visited most of the towns OF
the county and many rural districts,
and who is being received with open
arms wherever he goes. Tom is a
man a person cannot help but like.
and you don't have to know him
long to like him either. He is q
man that at all times is very pleas
ant to everyone, has ways about
him that appeal to everyone, and we
don't believe that he has an enemy
in the world. There is one office
at the court house that Tom Is es-
pecially fitted for and that is the
office Of register Of deeds to which
he aspires. This office requires
man who is extremely accurate,
neat. and accommodating, and Tom
has always had the reputation Of
possessing all these qualifications
with some to spare. The records:
since Burke county was organized
have been kept in the best possible

During the past few days there
have been people from all parts of
the county in Bowbells attending
the present term of district court
and in talking with them we did not
find single one that did not believe
that a change in the county super
intendent's Office was very desirable,
and all expressed themselves as be-
ing very enthusiastic over the can
didacy of Carl Gilbertson of Ignite,
who has made a big success Of ev-
cry position which he has held
since coming to this part of the
state, and who believes in giving
his employers the best there is in
him at all times. AS stated before
his present school duties prevent
him from spending very much time
in making his campaign, but there
seem to be very large number Of
people in all parts of the county
who have taken great interest in
his nomination and. election and
have been working hard for his BEN
eft ever since he announced himself
as a candidate. We do not believe
that there is single person who

DRIVE INTO RIVER
!: At MAGIC CITY

Minot, N. D., June 13.-Harry
Mccoy and Sander Swanson. plas-
terers, had an experience at $3.50
o'clock Sunday morning that might
have cost them their lives. While
Intoxicated. they ran Swanson's
Maxwell car thru the 2x8 fence at
the east end of Central avenue, the
car making high dive of twenty
feet into the Mouse river. The car
must have been going at q high rate
of speed and when it struck an en-
bankment in front or the fence, 1t
must have given fearful plunge.
The car struck on all four wheels
when 1t landed in the bottom of the
river, IL feet deep at that point.
and was almost completely sub
merged, but one front wheel and
the hood showing above the water.
Mccoy was asleep in the car at the
time and dreaming of picking daises
or something and must have been
greatly surprised when he woke up
In the water. When he came to
the surface he grabbed the limb of
a tree, pulled himself up on the
bank and ran up the street, yelling
murder" Swanson got out of the
a neighboring house for assistance.
He stated that some brave Ameri-
can soldiers were outside in distress
but the people Of the house became
alarmed and kicked the man out.
The police were notified and men,
bers of the fire department were
called out. AS it was believed that
a third man was in the car, the
river was dragged for several hours.
until it was determined that the
man had not been in the car at all,
but was safely walking the streets.
The car lost three doors and Was
badly damaged.
Mccoy and Swanson were arrest
ed for fast driving and Mccoy was
fined $40 and IS costs and Swansono
$3.50.
As neither Mccoy nor Swanson
can swim and inasmuch as they
would not have been able to do so
under the circumstances, had they
been familiar with the art, they
consider they got out of the mess
luckily.

Minot, N. D., June 13.-Martin
Schey has been arrested on instruc-
tions from the states attorneys Of
Ice on one of the rankest swlndles
ever tried on the public, and he
will most certainly serve time in
the penitentiary for his unlimited
gall. schey, who has a decidedly
German name, has been going
about the country taking orders at
$3.50 per fer a book on conserva-
ton worth probably quarter. He
has represented himself as an en-
ployee of the national government
and has been inquiring about liber-
ty bonds and other work OF the
parties. He has in every manner
possible worked on the patriotism OF
the, people and told them that sub
scribing for the book was a SER
vice to the country. He has a lot
OF forged Testimonials in which his
book is endorsed by high army and
other government officials, and In
which the people are urged to pur-
chase copies. Out of a total OF
twenty-eight people canvassed he
took twenty-four orders.
He is about the lowest scalawag
that has struck the country but Will
hardly get justice as the laws are not
sufficiently drastic to punish men OF
his stripe. The evidence against
him is so strong that it Is certain he
will plead guilty

SUBSTITUTES j
FROM INSECTS

Fargo, N. D., June 13.-Edgar
, e. Sharp. Clay County food admin
istrator, calls attention to instruc-
tio1s which are given by the food
administration for theacare of GER
eals during the hot weather. The
cereals which are being used as
substitutes for wheat flour are very
attractive to certain insects in the
warm weather and require proper
care in handling and storing to pre-
vent loss from meal bugs, meal
works, -four moths and others.
Cereals should be purchased in
small quantities during the hot
weather and the purchaser should
see that they are fresh and clean.
Package cereals should be in tightly
sealed packages Small holes in the
packages may mean that there are
insects in the package. -. =
Test all cereals used as wheat
flour substitutes in the oven before
you store them. This test can be
made with the "IIeat testing wax" ;"
which can be procured from grocers
at q cost of 5 cents a package, each
package containing 20 tests.
In heating, the wheat substitute
put it in an ordinary dripping pan
from / 1-2 to 2 inches deep and put
the pan in the hottest part of the
oven. Place the testing wax on
piece of paper on top Of the cereal.
then heat the oven until the testing
Swax melts down to a grease spot,
which will indicate 1876, degrees F..
With coal or wood stove have a
slow fire and the wax should melt
in 10 or Is minutes. With a gas.
gasoline or kerosene stove the oven
should be run with the fire as low as
g will burn we'll and the wax should
melt in about Is minutes. When
the wax melts, remove the wax and
mix the cereal we'll. Then leave the
cereal in the oven As minutes after
the testing wax melts. In using
wood or coal stove, leave the oven
door open during the IS minutes
and keep the fire low. With q gas,
gasoline or kerosene stove, turn out
the fire and leave the oven door
closed during the 45s. minutes.

suggested that they be put in Jars.

DEHORNING CALVES

Clip the hair around the rudi-
mentary horn, make a slight cut in
the soft nub that forms the horn
and apply caustic potash (stick
form is best) by rubbing the stick
on the button" until it becomes
moist, red or shows signs Of bleed
ing. Be sure that all parts Of the
horn are burnt in the process; 9TH
erwise scurs or stub horns may
grow later. After the treatment
do not let the calf stand out in the
rain as the potash may run down
the face and get into and burn the
eyes. =, Extension Div. N. D. Ayr.

GREEN MANURE

On some of the newer farms , in
Northern Minnesota the soil Is rather
short in organic matter. With
small clearings 1t is necessary to
work the land intensively, and with
small herds the quantity of manure
available is insufficient to maintain
fertility. Consequently amin q
manure must be supplemented by
something else.
To meet this situation the North
west Experiment Station at Duluth
uses the following plan In the or
chard set out in 1915. A crop of
rutabagas is grown among the trees.
After this is harvested the ground
is disced, and a crop of rye Is sown. )
This is turned under the following
June, and the land Is replanted to
a, root crop.
This is what is called green-man-
uring. II 1t is done with care to
prevent the possible souring Of i the
soil after several years. excellent re-
