The Boy Scouts have obtained
the use of the former Grand Army
hall in the Peters block as head
quarters, through the generosity Of

the hall for their use. AS a part Of

/Holz Bros, Charles and William,
who recently took over the bakery
business of their father, August

bread is pushing the foreign-made
bread out Of the local market and

Holz Bros. are progressive business
men, and are already boosters for
Ellsworth. Their father will remain
with them through the holidays,
after which he will go to the Doyle
farm on the Bayside road, which he
purchased recently.
Embert c. Osgood has purchased

west of Mr.. Sowle's house, and ad-
joining the right-of-way next to the
Forsyth building. The lot has a
frontage of 27 feet on Main street.

chase includes a small building on
the lot formerly used by c. L.

completed, but the actual transfer OF
the property will not take place un-

graduation to the business men of
Ellsworth that this firm is to acquire

ing his conviction on charges of con-
tempt of court. Judge Lindsey this

Prisoners Escape
From the State
Prison in Texas

HUNTSVILLE, Texas.-Between
twenty-five and thirty prisoners at
the Huntsville state prison mutinied
and escaped this morning. Two
guards were shot, one probably IA
tally.
Six Of the men obtained pistols
and stormed the front gate of the
prison, then charged guards on the
inside of the prison walls and broke
into the armory, obtaining shotguns.
Prison officials have not determ-
ined the number that escaped.
About twenty-five shots in all were
fired by the convicts. The guards
returned the fire, but as far as is
known no convicts were hit.
In the original attack there were
only about six convicts, each armed
with q pistol, and they charged the
front gate, going to the armory,
where the shotguns were obtained.
Returning they again charged the
guards and, recruiting more convicts
they escaped by way Of the east rail-
way gate.
Reports to the warden's office this
afternoon said three of the convicts
had been captured and that twenty
five Others were surrounded by a
posse near Dodge. Eight more were
being pursued as they headed toward
Houston, the reports indicated.

Road Explanation

John R. Williams, county COM
missioner for the Third district, COM
prising the southern end of the
county, was in town and said he
wished to offer explanation Of the
Pingree road dragging.
He SAID it was true that he had
authorized some men to drag the
roads for pay, and that he did SO
because there were so many COM
plants about the roads thru that
section being SO rough. He said he
did not employ any Of the men who
had refused to donate work when
others were donating, but employed
these five men who had already do
mated some work. He said that
Swan Berg had dragged the road
from his place north and east for
some distance, and the two Fack-
rells and L. Shelman had dragged
sections in their locality. He did not
say as to Mr.. Howell.
Mr.. Williams said that thru travel
had to suffer along with the local
people and that the Pingree people
did not seem to care how rough the
road was, nor did not seem to regret
it on account of the Inconvenience
to thru travel. He made three trips

Banker Writes
About Farming
and Beet Raising

trust that you will pardon me
for asking space in your valuable
paper, as what have to say is some
what personal altho it does refer to
farming and beet raising.
Immediately after the 1921 beet
contract was published, ! took occa-
sion before an audience to say that
l was pleased to observe that after
many years the beet growers and the
sugar manufacturers had entered
into a practical, economic agreement
as to the price Of beets, and that
the matter of guessing at prices had
now been eliminated. At the close
of the meeting. I was challenged for
my statement, with the remark that
not 10 per cent of the farmers would
sign up. 1t was the Sabbath so l
entered into no controversy, but
since then have kept in close touch
with the field men, and much to my
satisfaction, have just recently
learned that the acreage contracted
in this section this year, is only a
very few acres short of last years
large total acreage and we still have
several days of the contracting sea-
son left.
The contracts last year were
signed up under $12 price. This
was intoxicating and large acreage
was planted regardless of the condi-
tion Of the land and very little dis
cretion was used as to what would
be the most suitable crop for certain
tracts. Everything was beets. Such
a price would always bring about
the same result. Not only that,
but 1t has tendency to encourage
extravaganza and unnecessary spend

ORE, SHIPPED

The Empire Copper company IL
now shipping car of ore a day and
has been for the past month or so
Settlement sheets arriving daily are
distributed among the leasers and
some mining money is now commenc-
ing to circulate in camp. Many OF
the settlement sheets show nice
profit after expenses are paid, on
each car shipped. The mine is in ex-
cellent physical condition and a big
tonnage could be secured II 1t were
not for the excessively high freight
rates which precludes the shipment
of some Of the lower grades of ore,
of which there Is large quantity.
Several cars of ore would be leav-
ing daily If the freight rates would
justify shipping the lower grades
