Edwin Christensen was a county
seat visitor on Monday. He is wear
ing a broad smile nowadays.
The Farmers Equity Society Of
Eidsvold township met in the hall on
Friday afternoon. They ordered
groceries on a trial basis to see if
they could reduce the high cost Of liv-
ing some. They also had a program,
each farmer giving the crop that he
though was most profitable. Potatoes
seem to be the favorite crop. T. T.
Kleven raised some 60 bushels from a
3Ox3O rod patch, he also stated that
there was 144 SO. rds in an acre. The
song rendered by Messrs. Erick Olson,
Christ. Thompson, Arthur Ramstad
and Edwin Christensen was enjoyed
by all. T. D. Acheson also gave a
talk on "Patriotism."
Miss Sophia Sandstel is helping at
the John Mcmillan home in Bottineau.
Miss Viola Hembrof went to One
NEE on Saturday for dental work, re-
turning to Souris the same evening,
where she spent Sunday with her par
ents.
Val. Cowles of Roth must have
gotten over his small pox scare as
he is back boosting Roth. He seems
to be rather mistaken in some Of his
base ball dreams. If the writer re-
members correctly, Landa put it all
over Roth last year several times in
base ball. And we believe that the
Roth correspondent was one Of the
baseball enthusiasts from Roth that
got one of the jolts. We said before
that Landa was the best little town
in the state and we still stick to that
contention.
Philip Hanson, Edwin Olson and
Louise Lillestrand passed their eighth
grade finals. We hope that these
young people will go on with their
education and not stop just when they
have nicely got started.
Wonder how M. Teigen likes his
new office in Kramer. It sure is
rather dignifying looking edifice.
Mr.. Milloy Of Minot fame has start
ed something that is rather hard to
stop. Wonder will he have the nerve
to meet the author of Examinations
Of a Rube" and his fellow colleague
in debate. Here's hoping that Mr..
Milloy will be kind enough to honor
us by his Truthful Countenance,"
and we pledge ourselves that no per-
sonalities will be debated. What
about it you four-fusher? Now is the
time to show your hand and what you
have up your sleeve. It seems queer
that Minot would have to import an
alien to free the people of North Da-
kota from the hold of "anarchism" and
socialism as he calls the N. P. L.
Come on Milloy and show your colors
you are either a piker or we have your
goat if you do not show up.
According to reports the "New
League" has endorsed two men for
the legislature. One we do not know
but the other one we do. The man in
question is one of the biggest social
lists in Bottineau county. Better wash
your slate again and get some one
who is not SO socialistic in his make
up. We know this man personally but
we are not going to use his name until
we know for sure that this report is
true. It it is true then watch the
crow that Falky and Garden (and
the rest Of the bunch will have to eat
and say that it is good.)
What about that debate Garden and
Teigen. Won't your platform hold
water? Teigen backs out when he
has a chance to debate. He and Fall
ky and Lo. Garden would make a
good 3-horse team.
