PUREBREDs NEEDED AT HOME
Wisconsin Bank Offers to Advance Money to Customers Who Wish
 to Purchase RoIstens.

The Better-Sires campaign conduct ed by various states in cooperation with the bureau of animal industry, United States department of agricul- ture, is developing the fact that bank credit is as available to the progress sive live stock farmer as to the pro- gressive business man of the city.
 A letter received by the bureau of animal industry reports the following announcement published by a Wiscon- sin bank to its farmer patrons:
 'Why not keep some of those pure bred Holsteins at home? Many fine an- imals will be sold at the first annual sale of the Brown County Holstein Breeders association to be held in the Brown county fair grounds West De Pere, Wis, The -bank is ready to stand back of any of its customers who wish to purchase some of the stock to be offered for sale and who do not feel able at present to carry the investment.

Three general causes have contrib uted to the exploitation of the motor truck industry in rural territory-an industry which has an important effect on farm-marketing costs. These caus- es are: CD the growth of our larg- CT cities and the consequent develop ment Of nearby producing areas to provide for part of the food needs of these cities; (2) the failure of the railroads to keep pace with the ex- pansion of their short-haul business i; C3) the development of the motor truck manufacturing interests and the con- sequent extension of their sales cam- paigns.

A final reckoning was to come. Scorning precaution because he felt the Sea Wolf physically Howerless from the suspected presenceFof a tu- nor on the brain, Humphrey ventured too near one day. Suddenly the Sea Wolf's stupor passed. The steel-like fingers gripped Humphreys throat. The trap had sprung.
 Maude leaped into action, tearing at Larsen's hands. But for once the Sea Wolf's tremendous will could not spur his weakened body. His fingers twitched and then relaxed and Hum nhrey was released.
 "That was the last play of the Wolf,", said Larsen, with his twisted smile. "Pd like to have done for you first, Hump. thought I had that much left in me-"

An attempt was made more than year ago to conduct a gen eral preliminary survey of rural motor routes established or in process of es tablishment.

SEE We STEELE
Gymnasium Among the Modern
Features of New Structure
Under Construction

Steele, N. D., Sept. 9.-One Of the
finest and most modern school build
ings in the state is nearing compile
ton here.
The building, which will replace
the structure burned last year, will
cost about $4,000, and will be ready
for occupancy in November. The
building is two-story brick, with
a large gymnasium, 40 by so, and
domestic science and manual train
ing departments in the basement.
Adjoining the gymnasium are show
er baths.
On the first floor there will be
six grade rooms. The high school
will occupy the second floor. An
unusual feature is the separation of
the second floor for the junior and
senior high schools. The junior high
school consists of pupils of the sew
enth, eighth and ninth grades, and
the senior high school of the tenth,
eleventh and twelfth grades. There
is an assembly room for each.
The school is to serve the town and
township. .-.-
The Steele schools, under C. S. Tor
vend, superintendent, and Miss Irene
Olson, principal, will open on Mon
day. Until the completion of the
new building school will be held in
churches, lodge halls and other build
ings. that may be necessary.

Man for Governor Leading

Milwaukee, Wis, Sept. John J

lidate for Governor of Wisconsin in
Tuesady's primary was leading Roy
Wilcox, Eau Claire, by 902 votes, ac-
;ording to returns compiled by the
Milwaukee Sentinel from 1,794 pre-
;incts out of 2,379.
Senator Irvine L. LenrOOt's victory
over James Thompson, La Crosse, was
generally conceded. Figures Of the
Sentinel from 1,760 precincts show
Lenroot leading by 1926. Thompson
was endorsed by the Nonpartisan
league.
Blaine's vote from precincts report
ed is 8S,491 and Wilcox 1859.
Lenroot's vote stood at 137,414 and
Thompson's 114,198, while McHenry
polled 36,979 as far as heard from.
At La Follette's headquarters the
claim is made that Blaine will have
1000 plurality when the total vote be-
comes known. On the other hand Will
cox's manager is claiming victory.
The fact that there were six candi-
dates for the nomination for Governor,
dividing the strength against the La

of Blaine.

The penitentiary inmates read a

been used are welcome. They should
be mailed to the prison librarian.

FIVE ARE HELD
AFTER ATTACK
. ON A LAB0RER
Angelo Meggo Attacked on
Freight Train and Robbed
of Seventy Dollars

New Rockford, Sept. 9.-Angelo
Meggo, aged about thirty years, tran
sient laborer, who was riding freight
east Sunday morning, about four
o'clock, was robbed by number of
men, OF $40, his watch and pay
check. After robbing him, without re-
sistance, the man was shot once
through the abdomen and thrown off
the moving train, supposedly dead.
This occurred about quarter Of a
mile from Dundas, six miles east of
here. The man recovered conscious
ness shortly and dragged himself to
the store of Ole Johnson in Dundas.
Staggering to the window he attracted
Mr.. Johnsons' attention then tainted.
The authorities here ordered Meggo
removed to the Donahue hospital
where he died at about 1890 Sunday
afternoon. He was conscious to the
end and gave authorities the descrip-
ton of the men, and other details,
including the number of his watch.
He said he put up no fight whatever.
A sister, Mrs. Jenny Jardin, of
Boston, was outlined and is expected
to give direction as to the disposal OF
the body.
Five men were taken from the
freight train at Casselton, four of
whom were armed with revolvers.
They were taken on to Fargo and
held until Sheriff Stensby and his
deputies took charge of them. They
returned here yesterday noon and
are now lodged in the county Jail
awaiting hearings.
The men gave their names as Chas.

COUNTY JAIL IS
EMPTY; CITY CELL
UNOCCUPIED, TOO
No Prospects of Filling the
County Prison; Court
Calendar Clear

An empty county jail is proof that
Burleigh county people are either
very good or very clever. The Jail
has no prisoners from this county
in it's cells and has not had for some
months. Several prisoners from a
neighboring county are being kept
here for safety.
The district court calendar is all
clear, as far as any prospects of fill
ing the county's Jail are concerned,
according to Charles J. Fisher, clerk
of the court.
The city police cell is empty and
only few stray "bums" have occu-
pied it through the whole summer.
While a relatively large number of
people have been brought into court
and paid fines the police have had
slight use for the city lookup.
But an empty Jail has it's disad-
vantages as we'll as benefits. For
example, with nice full Jail there
is always plenty of labor to clean
up the court house yard, sprinkle the
lawn, and do all manner of odd Jobs
But now the jailer must do this him
self.
No one offers any explanation for
the present shortage Of criminals.
Prohibition cannot be blamed, as the
state was dry before this year.

President Noyes observed that the
journals of the society had had great
deal to do with causing its member

other in the world" W
"Our three journals form, undoubt-

activity of our society and through
these journals we contribute more to

of all our other activities combined" :"
Of the American Chemical society
news service, Prof. Noyes said "the
remarkable services which chemistry
performed in the war would have been
