DULUTH OIL MEN INTER
ESTED IN MlNOT FIELD
K. X. Forward and Fred Burke Visit
This Section and Invest in the
Great Western Oil Refining Co.

r. X. Forward and Fred Burke,
prominent oil men from Duluth, visit
ed Minot and vicinity last week and
have become interested in the Great

recently organized at Ryder, N. D.
Edw Fredeen Of Ryder has been
elected president of the company and
B. A. Dickinson, prominent Ryder
attorney. has been elected treasurer.
Messrs. Forward and Burke undoubt-
eddy will be selected in some official
capacity.
Mr.. Fredeen is one of the we'll
known pioneer settlers of this part of
the state and owns the hotel at Ryder.
For long time, he has believed that
there is oil in this vicinity and was
instrumental in getting the Great
Western Oil Refining Co. organized.
He interested the Duluth men in the
project and drove with them over the
various sections Of the state where oil
and gas have been found.
Mr.. Forward, who is brother-in-
law Of Mr.. Sears, of the Sears-Roe-
buck Co., was engaged in the mercan-
tile business until three years ago,
since which time he has been inter
ested in the oil projects of Wyoming
and Oklahoma. He states that a
number Of Duluth bankers who took
flyer in the oil game, when it looked
as tho their ventures were the wild
est sort Of wild-catting, have made
large sums of money. Mr.. Forward
says that his opinion that oil will
De located here in paying quantities
is strengthened by the fact that traces
of oil have been found in such a scat
tering fashion.

FIRE DESTROYS FARM HOME
ON BROW N EST T

Berthold Tribune: The John Joiner
family, living on the w. A. Brown es-
tate, just north Of Lone Tree, had a
narrow escape from being cremated
last Saturday night when the house
which they were occupying burned to
the ground. Being sound sleepers
they were not awakened until almost
suffocated from the smoke and being
almost hemmed in by the flames they
were forced to flee in their night
clothes without time to gather up
their wearing apparel or any personal
effects. The family lost all their per-
sonal belongings except the covering
from one bed which they managed to
save through window. The almost
naked family found refuge with their
neighbors and were supplied with suf-
ficient clothing.
The fire is supposed to have started
from hot Ignite ashes which ignited
the banking around the house. The
loss to the estate is fully covered by
insurance.
AS soon as daylight appeared ar
rangements were started for rebuild.

]. A. Roell's Car Burns.

J. A. Roell lost a Pullman car by
fire recently, at his farm on the north
hill. Mr.. Roell had driven out to the
farm and was out chasing some horses
away that were hanging around the
farm. He left the car and ran after
the horses and while he was gone the
car caught fire some place in the rear.
He had some sacks in the rear Of the
car and had been smoking, and as the
day was windy, he presumes that a
spark from his pipe may have set the
car on fire. Fortunately, the machine
was insured.

Hand In Hand

One of the main reasons why
has been such a marked improvement
q WholesoneneSs and healthfuneSs in food
ucts the last ten years has been on acco
the cooperation between pure food o
4 and domestic science teachers. These tN
3 ments have been working toward a col
y end-our protection against unscrupulouss
a facturers who have not based their clai
Il business on the quality, but rather on che
y and who, in their endeayor to market
\ products on price or quantity, have often re
\ to substitution and to the use of unwhol
material Though progress has been MAJ
much remains to be done.
Mr.. Harry L. Eskew, Food Con
B sioner of Tennessee, has been very active
Y efforts to safeguard the health of the PEG
Z his State In the New York Journal of
merce he has the following to say abo
! called Self Rising Flour, which is used j
tain sections:
Il would not tolerate -four product
some Of the 'self-rising -four sold in lars
of the South, the concomtants of Whio
h alike unknown and not to be ascertained
consumer and whose purity in the mat
phosphate is open to serious question as
! ceptivc agency"
when the need of improvemel
certain food products is pointed out so def
and at the same time is backed up by tho
of domestic science teachers throughol
country, it is quite natural that American
wives will gradually become schooled i
proper selection of food products, and
same time demand proper labelling of all
products.
