WHITE MAN TAKEN
 AS CHICKEN THIEF

A white man giving his name as H. E. Blevins was arrested this morn. ing by Deputy Constable J. A. King and placed under $500 bond for his appearance before Justice of the Peace G. M. Easterwood on a charge of grand larceny. Blevins is alleged to have stolen II fine chickens last night from Mrs. J. L. Harrington, who resides in the southwestern part of the city, and to have sold them early this morn ing to J. F. Hoyt, produce merchant, for $11.8O.
 Faber White, son of Mrs. J. Walter White, living near Mrs. Harrington, said this morning that he heard the chickens squawking last night end thinking they were his chickens, went to investigate. He soon learned, how ever, that the noise came from the neighbours chicken house and went to call Mrs. Harrington. The thief, how
 yer, saw young White coming and fled across the field to buggy and made his getaway. Blevins was waiting for MT. Hoyt at the latter's place of busi- ness this morning at 5:3O o'clock, when MT. Hoyt appeared. Blevins had the coop of chickens tied on the back end of his buggy. Soon after Mir. Hoyt purchased the chickens, Paul Brown, son of Mrs. Harrington, appeared and identified the chickens as belonging to hsl mother. Blevins was then placed under arrest by MT. King.

space to disseminating information
regarding this crop. There are many
valuable books OF this subject which
may be had from the publishers. The
papers published in our region are
the most valuable, because the infor-

who have had the experience under
our conditions. 80

and by inquiry, get information first

this means of creating interest in these
subjects. For instance, during a series
of meetings held in the northwestern
part OF North Dakota, at which talks
were made or alfalfa and other farm
topics. After these talks, were made

in automobiles for a drive about the

However. after one has read all the
