COW Bill WILL Be i !. !.
AID TO FARMERS

Bismarck, Aug. 5.-The most
important law passed at the last
session Of the legislature was the e
COW bill which V became operative
July 1 It's chief purpose is to pro-
mote the. dairy industry. The !.
WA. forces In the lower house did
everything within their power to
block the passage Of this measure,
or emasculate it, but they were un-
successful.
Perhaps the outstanding provi-
sion Of the COW bill is section
authorizing counties to use the pro-
ceeds Of bond issues or Warrant
sales for purchasing dairy herds for
farmers upon petition of 50 free
holders.
TO avail themselves of the ad-
yantages Of the law communities
must organize dairy associations
consisting of 10 or more farmers
each. The functions of these CEN
trail bodies will be to look after the
distribution Of animals and arrange
for payments between the. lndlvld-
ual members and the counties.
No one farmer can get more than
five cows, the total Of which must
not exceed $1,000. A first lien is
taken on the herd as we'll as the IN
crease. Money realized from eth
er the sale of thes original herd or
increase must be applied to the
debt held by the county against the

T. ON BAD CHECK

Duluth, Aug. 5.-Whether the
sum Of $4,000 alleged to have been
obtained by the Mesaba Bank of
Proctor, Mimi. from the Witten
berg State bank of Wittenberg,
Wis, through manipulation of funds
by, Charles A. .Martinson, former
cashier of both banks, must be re-
turned, is expected to be decided in
case being heard today by Judge
Page Norris in Federal court, Du
luth. Martinson IS serving a SEN
tence at Saltwater following his
conviction on a charge of embezzle-
ment.
While cashier of the Proctor bank

suit to have used $4,000 of the
banks money. Before the short
age was discovered he accepted a
position as cashier Of the WitteI-
berg bank and on the day he left
Proctor drew check on the Wit
tenberg bank to cover his shortage
at Proctor, according to the charge.
Arriving at Wittenberg he is al
legged to have covered the false
check, which, with other shortages
there, left him owing the bank
$4,000, $4,000 of which was in
stock in the bank and was later re
covered t.H.-
The Wittenberg bank now seeks
to cover $4,000, the amount OF
the check drawn upon it to recover
his shortage at the Proctor bank.
In it's answer the Proctor bank
claims to have had no knowledge
that the check was worthless.
