John Arngrinson
Loses Big Barn and
Silo By Fire

The big barn and new silo on the
farm of John Arngrimson was de-
stroyed by fire about o'clock Satur-
day night which resulted in total
loss for Mr.. Arngrimson.
An electrical storm passed over
that neighborhood Saturday evening,
while the family was away from home.
It proved the next next morning that
the barn had been struck by lightning
some time that evening, as was shown
by the large splinters about the barn
yard. When the family came home
everything seemed to be all right
about the place and the family went
to bed for the night. About II o.
clock they were awakened by neigh
bors who saw the fire from a dis
tance and who had come to their as
sistance. The fire had such a head
way by that time that it was imposs-
ible to do anything to save the build
ing. 1t appears as if after the light
ming had struck, the barn smouldered
for several hours before it burst into
flame.
Just back of the big barn set the
new silo, Mr.. Arngrimson had built
last year. This was completely de-
stroyed as well as the barn. It is un.
derstood that the silo was not cover
ed by insurance, although there was
insurance on the barn.
The buildings were practically emp
ty at the time of both live stock and
equipment. The loss would have been
heavier If there had been stock in
the barn, as the stock would have
perished also. The family is also for
tunate that the wind was not blowing
towards the house, for if it had been
the fire would have caught that build
ing too.
Mr.. Arngrimson has sustained a.
heavy loss, but he is fortunate that
it was not greater one.

A HorseIess Grain Tank
.Parades Thru Streets

1t was funny when one stops to
think about it. A grain tank being
pulled along the streets by tractor
and the driver standing in the wagon
driving the tractor with lines. Would
MT it look funny now?
It. made US think when we were
boy and the first automobile came to
town and for days afterwards it was
the talk of everybody. And "Dink"
James and doc" Hale, managing the
ball team decided to- advertise, the
ball game by having hand bills print
ed stating that on the next Saturday,
the day for the game, there would be
shown in town horseless carriage.
People came for miles. And sure
enough, there the was the horseless
carriage. They had donkey hitched
to it.. They advertised the game al
right
But to. get back to the main story.
Earl Robinson, manager of the
Washburn Motor Co., had horseless
grain tank and not only that, he had
it animaless as we'll. He had a Ford
son tractor hitched to it. Yes, actual
ly hitched, and was driving it with
lines, just like horse. He made it
do almost everything, except stand on
it's hind wheels, but the reason it did
MT do that was that it did not balk.
He could put it in low, high and in
termediate and then back it up by
simply pulling the lines. 1t acted
just like horse, unless it was a little
better, for when he stopped it, it stop
ped, and there was no danger of it
running away.
Yes. it was funny sight.
Mr.. Robinson was demonstrating
that a man can work a binder and a
Fordson tractor at the same time.

lost trying to get to Minot if they
wanted to. The people of that vicin-
ity realize that every tourist they can
draw means real money to their cof-
fers.% .,-.,....
The idea is a mighty good one and
one which could be used to advan-
tage by every town. This is the
work for a Commercial Club and
Washburn should take advantage Of
