method Germany pursued in stripping
French factories of all machinery and
destroying such machinery as she
could not transport to Germany. This
was done to ruin France after the
war; to make it impossible for France
! to compete with German trade in the
markets of the world to make France
an economic dependency of the Ger

Ward Farmers Changing
Methods OF Farming

Minot, N. D., July 13.-That the
farmers Of Ward county and farmers
Of adjoining counties are changing
their methods Of running their farms
Is shown by the fact that. during the
month of June this year $4,000
pounds more butter was shipped out
OF Minot by the Northern Produce
company. Another indication Of
prosperity on the farms is the fact
that in June 1917 this company
bought and shipped Ellis cases Of
eggs while in June this year they
bought and shipped 4!7S5 cases or
o than double the business Of a.
year ago. Still another evidence Of
the changed methods Of making the
farm pay shows in the shipment of
poultry. Three years ago the Nor
them Produce company bought and
shipped only three car loads of live
poultry. In the same territory in
1916 they bought and shipped nine
car loads and last fall and winter This
increased to IA car loads and other
companies came into the territory
and purchased six additional car
loads. Notwithstanding the shortage
Of feed the dairy and poultry end Of
the farm has been increasing by rapid
strides. Farmers are going more and
more into cows and chickens and less
INTO grain. ~

Cured in this country in many years"
Mr.. Milloy says Mason Is already
planning on a gas we'll for Minot and
he believes he can strike a flow at a
depth Of 1900 feet which will supply
the city with light and fuel. Natural
gas has been struck at various points
in what is now known as the North
Dakota oif fields and many farmers
have capped their wells and are u.s.
ing the gas for light and fuel. This is
true at Lansford, Westhope, Burling-
ton and other points. At Ryder oil was
discovered in a well as a local man
was digging for water. The oil on the
Blum ranch was first discovered when
the owner Of the farm sank q. we'll for
water.
The people of Minot and that dis
trict have bright hopes for a rich oil
strike, according to the Minot news

with rich strikes. in fact the boom is
already on" he says. :

leave the road and turn completely
upside down in the ditch, pinning the
occupants underneath. All parties
escaped uninjured, the top Of the car
being up saved them from being
crushed to death. The girl at the
wheel is exonerated from all blame
as she is a careful driver.

aged, the wind shield smashed up,
one fender bent, three spokes broken
out Of one Of the rear wheels an two
tires punctured. e
This is the third accident Of the

Robinson Will Be A Candidate

Uncertainty as to whether Senator Joe T.

President Wilson said he had been dis tressed to hear that Senator Robinson was somewhat in doubt about seeking re election; that he hoped there was no foundation for the rumor; that Senator Rob inson's retirement would be a real national loss. "I have found your counsel and aid so exceed ingly valuable that 1 am making this appeal to you, said Presi- dent Wilson in his letter to Sen ator Robinson.
