RICHARD W. DU VAIL, MlN0T
MERCHANT, DIED WEDNESDAY,

Richard w. DuVall, prominent Mi
not merchant, passed away at st.
Joseph's Hospital in this city at $3.50
o'clockW ednesday morning, following
an illness Of long duration. Mr.. Du
Vail had been in failing health for the
past two or three years. He appeared
to grow worse following street car
accident at Spokane, Wash.last win
ter and was treated by specialists
while in the west.
Nearly three weeks ago his conditi-
on became so serious that he was TAX
en- to the hospital where an operation
was performed for an abscess at the
rear of the eye. This operation
proved to be entirely successful as far
as the abscess was concerned but he
continued to fail, death coming to his
relief, An autopsy proved that death
was caused by Oedema of the brain
following chronic infection, the poison
from the abscess having been abb
sorbed into the blood and settling in
the brain. There was no possible
chance for his recovery.
Short funeral services were held
from the Van Fleet undertaking par
lors at 3 o'clock today, Rev. D. J.
Gallagher in charge, and the body was
taken to Minneapolis for burial. Mrs.
Du Vail and their son, Bruce, who ar
rived from Ripon, Calf. Saturday, and
Mrs. Robertson of Minneapolis, Mrs.
Du Wallis sister-in-law and Mrs. Bell
of Spokane, sister of Mrs. Du Vail ac-
companied the remains to Minneapolis
where they will be inferred in the Rob-
ertson burial plot.
Mr.. Du Vail was born at East
Packen, England, May 16, 1859 and
was 62 years of age. While a
small lad he accompanied his parents
to America, settling at Ripon, Wis.
When quite young he went to Fargo
where he worked for the North Dako
ia Harness Co. Later he located at
Mimic, N. D. where he was engaged in
the harness business, and Is years ago
came to Glenburn, N. D. where he re-
manned in business for three years, To-
eating in Minot about Is years ago,
continuing with the leather goods up
to the time Of his death. He was a
man of the strictest integrity and will
be greatly missed from the business
and social circles Of our city. He was
very quiet and unassuming, and a
great lover Of his home and flowers
and all that is beautiful.
He was member of the Minot

has returned from Los Angeles, Cal.
where he attended a convention of

Mr.. Bergheim wrote $135, 100000 worth
of insurance during the past year. He
returned by way Of Banff, Alta. and
reports the weather too cool there for
comfort. He met Chas. Moore, for
merly Minot's Ford dealer, who is now
operating a thriving grocery store in
Los Angeles. Mr.. Bergheim says
that on his entire trip he saw no soil
that begins to compare with that of
North Dakota. In California nothing
is raised without irrigation. He has
greater faith than ever in the future
of North Dakota if the proper meth
osd are employed.

know they are more expensive for
short hauls and do not use them for
this purpose. On two-mile haul we
can deliver for $3.50 ton by horse
drawn truck, and at So per ton by
auto truck. We consider the peak
stage of motor truck sales and use has
been reached. The small business area
of Boston, the shost distances between
business houses, docks and railroads
makes short haul proposition of the
immense transfer and forwarding busi-
ness Of this city. In this class Of work
the horse has no competition, and is
here to stay, and the expansion Of the
horse drawn equipment is now lin
tied only by the lack Of good draft
horses coming to Boston. To get the
kind Of heavy draft horses that we
must have We buy out of season or
any time, regardless Of business con-
ditiOns, and have paid as high as 5000
each, but are not getting as good
horses as we would like to use. We
assure you Of our hearty approval Of
your campaign to encourage the breed
ing of better horses and their economic
use in the many lines Of work for
which they are especially adapted
"The city markets, In fact the horse
markets as a whole, demand heavy

year, considerable time ago, that the
horses sold on the Chicago horse mar
ket which weighed more than 14OO

weighed over 14OO. 1t is saying of
the horse buyers that horse Is never
too big if he Is good enough. Do not

and remember that like produces like.
Big, well-formed mares bred to drafty,
sound stations bring the right type OF

IL the horses put on the market three
to seven years from now do not bring
better returns for the expenditure
than any other class Of stock.
"There is enough lime in the soil in
North Dakota to enable us to produce
the highest class and type Of bone in

Chicago concerns that maintain a six
horse draft show team included in
their team gelding that came from
the range country Of North Dakota.

nature that we have in North Dakota

II believe the horse owners Of North

awful mistake If they do not produce
colts from them as regularly as pos
sible for the next five years."

FOR DAKOTA BRED
DRAFT HORSES INCREASING

SUNLESS all signs fail there Is going
to be a shortage of draft horses before
the present seasons colts are ready for

sequence be much better than they
have been for several years past" says
]. H. Shepperd, chairman, animal hus-

1T takes seven years to produce

perd says. "All over the country peo-

North Dakota last year only about
one third the usual number Of stations

amined reports Of the stallion regis
tration boards Of a number Of other
states and find that they have had
about the same experience. In riding
through the principal horse producing
states during the past year, such as
Iowa, Illinois, Ohio, and Indiana,
have noticed how few pastures have
colts grazing in sight Of the railroad
trains.
1T is feasible and advisable, in my
opinion, for farmers to produce their
own work stock and to sell their
horses at eight and nine years old,
at which time they will bring as much
on the market as at any earlier age,
so that the work Of the farm can be
done with young horses ranging from
four to nine years old. BY following
such a plan the horses produced can
be made to earn their way and sell at
their maximum value. Dray lines and
those who use horses for street work
want we'll matured horses and pay
maximum prices for eight and nine
year old stuff. They do not expect
their feet and legs to wear many years
on the paving, and they want them

they are plying the streets. Most of
these horses are sold to farmers in
the states further east, mainly in the
northeast, after their feet have become
tender from heavy work over the
cobblestones in the streets.
"Some Of the trucking firms In cities
are now urging the production Of draft
horses for the sake Of supplying their
demand. G. Bowen Of Boston wrote
