The weather the past week has been
puzzle, almost an entire week with
out sunshine, yet we feel sure this is
real blessing in disguise, as this
great amount of moisture that is all
going into the ground will do much
toward insuring US crop in 1923.
The Des Lacs oil well which has
been shut down for several months
on account of being unable to get coal
received a car load and has resumed
drilling. Some time ago they blasted
the we'll, putting in charge of about
30 lbs. Of dynamite. They are now
drilling out what was blasted loose.
Mr.. Snyder the driler, reports bet
ter prospects than ever. Slush looks
and smells like oil and burns more
readily than ever before. There is
no doubt in the writer's mind that
there is oil in this region but whether
this we'll will be successful remains
to be seen and the end is very near
at hand we believe.

CITY news IN BRIEF

Congratulations for our friend,
Percy Trubshaw, publisher of the
Valley City Times-Record, who won
his hard fight for the Legislature.
Jos. Zimmerman, while unloading
a car Of coal at Chola, dropped dead.
The remains were taken to Lansford
and prepared for shipment to the old
home, Salem, N. D.
Gas was struck in a well at the
Geo. Randall home Ia miles south
west of F'laXton. A match was struck
and the gas ignited. The gas forces
itself thru 80 feet of water and when
not under control, forces the water 8
feet above the ground.
j. A. Carcuff, Mountrail county
poineer, wandered away from the
home Of his son while searching for
stock during the storm early last week
and grave fears were entertained that
he might have persisted. He was found
several days later at the. home Of
James Aspel, 20 miles away.
Peter Reichert, who suffered a very
serious accident to one of his eyes,
several weeks ago, is able to be about
again. While repairing trough, a
nail flew up and penetrated the pupil
of his right eye, not completely de-
stroying the sight of that eye but
iT pairing it to a great extent.
Frank Eicher, formerly Of this city,
returned to his home at Haywood,
Calf, Monday after spending ten
days here on business. Mr.. Eicher
is interested in the real estate bus
mess with Frank LYMAN formerly of
Minot, and reports that Lyman has
made several barrels of money in the
west.
Miss Johanna Larson defeated
Supt. Eidsmoe for superintendent Of
schools Of Mountrail county. States
Attorney Swenseid was reelected, de-
feating B. E. Crippen of Parshall by
about 200 majority. The vote for
sheriff was close. With nearly all the
returns in, Stray led Alger by IA
votes. E
Anthony Walton has ordered car
and will ship car load of good milk
cows to the St. Paul market when it
arrives. Mr.. Walton held a sale re-
cenly and after two of the cows had
sold for $4,000 each, placed a bid of
$4,000 each on the remainder, but
found no buyers. Some of these cows
cost him $4,000. It seems shame
that it becomes necessary to ship out
of the county and state choice milk
cows. @ ..aE

Fifty N. d. Hens Yield Big Profit

Profits netting $3.50 a hen were
made during the past year by Mrs.
l.. e. Stillman of Valley City with
a flock of so hens, according to O. A.
Barton, poultry specialist of the North
Dakota Agricultural college, who re-
ports that some 40 North Dakota poul-
try raiscrs are now sending daily egg
records and cost of production returns
to the college.
Fifty hens in the flock of Mrs.
Stillman laid an average of l64 eggs
from November l, 1921, to November
], 1922, according to Mr.. Barton's rec
ords By culling the flock, especially
in the fall, and by giving the birds
reasonable care during the year, the
flock has made substantial gains in
production during the past two years.
In September, 1921, Fl hens and AZ
pullets laid 264 eggs. The following
month 13 hens were culled out as poor
producers, but the remainder of the
flock laid 1877 eggs. With so hens
and pullets in the flock in September,
1922, the flock laid 695 eggs, and dur
ing October 31l eggs were gathered
from the flock after Is hens had been
weeded out and discarded as low pro-
ducers.
During the coming year we plan
to cooperate with 30 or 40 farms in
the state that will serve as poultry
record FARMS" Mr.. Barton states. "The
owners will furnish the department.
with detailed egg, feed and cost of
production records, and we will coop
crate with them as regards the care
and management of the flock. Gull
ing demonstrations may also be held
on the farms which will be scattered
in all sections of the stae. This fall
the department and county agents OF
the state will Gull about 500 tlocks
as demonstrations before groups Of
poultry raisers. Fall is the best time

DANGEROUS EXAMPLES

TT THERE were no unfairness, nc

In the world, everybody would succeed
without any trouble.
We should all tread the primrose
path straight to paradise, with no one
TO bar our progress.
Incidentally our road would be made
30 smooth and easy that we would be
a pretty poor crowd when we got to
paradise. quite unworthy to partake OF
Its delights. and utterly unfit for the
society which we should expect to find
there.
1t happens. however, that the world
is fairly well filed with injustice, and
that crookedness Is sufficiently preva-
lent to make 1t worth while to keep
our eyes open.
Also men succeed who ought not
to succeed, and by devices which
|hould send them to the penitentiary.
such Instances are exceptional, but
tney occur often enough to be danger

Nobody takes his word-nohodv

mother. Yet in spite of all thar he
makes nearly a million dollars a wear
and his business is one of the big

Perhaps this man will meet the fate

not. There are a few rascals who
live and die prosperous.
But that is not an argument in favor
of rascality. 1t is not even proof
that rascality pays.
For where one rascal prospers a
thousand are the victims of their own
crookedness.
In this world are far more crooks

Something to Think About

But, on the other hand, the simple
plodder, sincere in his effort to please
others, to present the truth pleasaL;;-
ly. in accordance with the accepted
usage of common sense, will, through
his sanely directed energy, climb to
strategic heights.
The more you analyze success, the
stronger will become the conviction
that it consists primarily in yielding
TO those in authority the right of the
highway.
The result is that the men and
women who habitually do this, who
listen TO reason. who keep their feet
on the ground, can open themselves
more clearly to their employers. de-
velOp more easily their natural abili-
ties and enjoy more of what makes
life truly valuable, not only in the
days of springtime when character is
plant and easy to shape, but all along
the days down to the final night of

very often we cannot be positive of

With this thought well understood
1t seems little less than absolute folly

to stumble recklessly into the dan.

many who are neither too cowardly
