GENERAL STORE AT
LANSFORD ROBBED

The r. I. Garnas' store at Lansford
was robbed the last week of approxi-
mately $500 worth Of merchandise ac-
cording to word received here the
early part Of the week. Entrance was
gained thru the front door, the lock
being pried loose The goods taken
consisted Of seven suits of clothes,
some leather vests, o number of wool
union suits, some bolts OF dry goods,
q small quantity Of silk and six pairs
of mems shoes.
The robbers took their time, it is
said, evidenced BY the fact that they
picked out the best goods the store
afforded and were particular about
sizes, the suits being sizes 50 and 40
and shoe sizes seven and q half and
eight. The shoes and underwear were
taken out of the boxes and the boxes
replaced on the shelves, while the
leather vests and suits were taken
hangers and all, No clues have been
obtained. 3S.

blew.
AIT the end of the first half the To-
calls led with q q to count but Ken
mare came back strong in the second
half and after but q few minutes Of
play the score was 9 to s with KEN
mare leading. From then ON the game
was 50 close that a basket by either
team meant a point lead. sz<, .
The work Of Chas. Riley at forward
for Bottineau certainly has to be mem
toned as he was responsible for 10
Of Bottineau's is points, scoring s
field goals. Amsbaugh and Walker
were going good but had no luck
shooting baskets, shot after shot the
ball hitting the loop but coming out
again. Ertresvaag and Stewart at
guard position forced Kenmare to
score all their points from the center
Of the floor. Amsbaugh scored free

The locals have 9 real hard schedule
ahead of them and there is no doubt
after few more nights of practice,

ABOUT THOSE HAIL WARRANTS

An Eastern Bond house, and other
Eastern financiers have announced
their willingness to buy state hail
warrants at i low rate Of discount.
This offer was made to Mr.. s. Al. OIs-
ness, State Hail Commissioner, and he
took the matter up with the Industrial
Commission. !. y, s..% .ss.
Now comes the Industrial Commits
sion, headed by the Governor and
claims credit for bringing Eastern
bond men into the state to buy hail
warrants. This assumption of credit is
altogether unjust. The Industrial
Commission have done nothing what.
ever to bring offers for hail warrants.
The secret Of the whole thing is that
money has fallen on the eastern mark
et. Sixty days ago call money Wac
bringing 6 and 8 per cent on the New
York Exchange. Today that; money
brings only s per cent. In other words
short time investment has become
only moderately profitable In the east
ern market, SO the financiers have.
moved westward into North Dakota,
Montana and other states in an effort
to locate more attractive investments.
State hail warrants at 95 per cent or
even SO bearing 6 per cent interest
with it for sixty days and which bears
6 per cent interest and is called In
three months, is an investment yield
ing more than % per cent per year..
That's better than per cent isn't it /?
That is what Eastern money men
think. That is why they are. offering
to buy these warrants, provided the
Supreme Court will rule they are ne
getiable, so as to make a direct claim
aIon the state. III tie interest on call
rioney rose to s per cent again To-.

men to buy hail II arrants Wna'd l'e

s.ener Of Insufa.r.e S. a. Olsless has
neen quite II, ac.,se IN promoting she

discount as s.as been the Industrial
Commission. IL credit was due TO any
state official, il must certainly be due
to Mr.. Olsness. 81. Ss ss 5.s. 5.$ I

THINGS ron SHOULD KNOW

Potatoes with q Sleet taste at this
time Of the year when brought from
the root cellar and cooked, have been
kept at TOO low q temperature. Po-
tatoes stored at near freezing point
will develop this taste, which is
objectionable to some people. H the
potatoes are brought into warm
room for q few days before being used
they will loose this sweet taste Tor
seed purposes, potatoes stored under
such conditions are as good as any;the
development Of the sweet taste is not
Questionable from the seed stand-

!. Make COMPLAINTS

Fargo, Jan. 25 Following the receipt
sof wholesale complaints from potato
shippers of the state, President Joha
Lee Coulter of the North Dakota
AgriculturaI College has appointed d
coramittee of three to- receive com
plants, secure the necessary sinforma-
Ition on how the shipments were made
and trace the individual cars from the
consignees thru the selling agencies
in the Twin Cities, Chicago and Kan
sas City to the purchasers. -:
The committe is now at work in
plants involving the Minnesota Pot
alto Growers Exchange, to which or
ganization most Of the cooperative
county shipping associations in this
state sent their potatoes this fall.
Charges made are that settlements
have been unnecessarily delayed and
that, in fact, no cash has yet been re-
.ceived for a number of ears shipped
last fall; cars have been allowed to
stand on the tracks for ten days OF
two weeks, with demurrage charges
piling up daily, as result of ineffie-
iency of the Minnesota organization,
and when settlements have been made
no itemization has been rendered of
the various factors such as freight,
commissioner, demnrrage, etc. making
up the cost of marketing. !
Practically the same charges have
been made against b number OF COM
mission agencies and private individ-
uals in the four potato marketing
cities of the middle west, and investi-
cations will aIss be made of these
cases. Members Of the committee ap.
pointed by President Coulter are ND
Gorn1an, assisting county agent lead
en- of the Extension Division; ;T x. Cal
nan, Barnss County Agricultural
agent and p. r. Trowbridge, director
Of the Experiment Station, j. J. Bar
rett Of Walcott, secretary Of the N.
d. Potato Growers Exchange, is CO.
operating, with the committee.
More than 200 complaints have been
received by the committee from in
dividuals and associations in this
state, most Of which are from Rich
land, Barnes and Ward counties. The
railways have promised to cooperate
in every way possible with the com
mittee so that full information can
be secured regarding freight and de-
charges on individual cars.
& The college announces that the ser
vices of this committee are available
70 any individual or association in
North Dakota who is dissatisfied with
returns or has not received satis-
factory accounting for shipments.
Complaints should be made to N. D.
German, Agricultural College, N. D.
He should be supplied with the car
the routing, the name Of the
party to whom the potatoes were
shipped, and the specific complaint.

CREAM
STATION TALKED

A great number OF complaints have
been heard from time to time relative
to the low price Of butterfat. I'm order
to find some way of at least
partially, overcoming this considerable
time has been spent by this office dur
ing the past month in studying this
condition. Mr.. Blair Of Bottineau and
Mr.. Getchal of Maxbass have mater
tally assisted in procuring the figures
by which it is hoped that we can pre-
sent some plan which will mean the
saving of thousands of dollars to the
farmers Of Bottineau County. = :
One cream station at Bottineau
handled during the past year from
April to January 1, approximately
$4,000 pounds of butter fat. The spread
in price between Bottineau and the
creameries to which the cream was
shipped ranged from 5 cents to 16
16 cents per pound, with CONSERVE
tive average of 10 cents. A cream
station can be operated on 6 cents per
pound butterfat, including the freight.
Thus we see that the excessive margin
Of A cents per pound would total 1920
for this one station alone. 4
Express Big Item F..
Another loss occurs IN the ship
nent Of small cans Of cream. It costs
.34 cents more to ship 10 gallons of
cream in 5 gallon cans than in 10 gal
Ion cans. Tn loss to the shippers in
excessive express would very nearly
pay the total equipment for a cream
station in one year.
Cooperative Cream Stations a
T" K Success
There is no reason why station Of
this kind could not or should not be
organized in every town in Bottineau
County. A Cooperative Station was
organized at Granville last summer
and besides paying a manager $125.W
per month they have pro rated back
to the farmers almost thousand dol
lars in patronage dividends-and what
may be more interesting-have done
so on a 6 cent margin.
IS: Meeting Will be Held
Meeting win be held in any com
munity on this subject in which the
farmers are interested and want a
meeting.
Are you satisfied in the way your
cream has been marketed? If so no
thing can be done. If you are not sat
isfed talk it up among your neighbors
and let US get together. At least
SIS, 10000 have been lost to the farm
ers of Bottineau County during the
past year on butter fat alone. If you
want to keep this money in the County
let's have some action.-C. B. Aamodt,
County Agent. -

FINE CHANCE FOR Mr.. THOMAS

Word is broadcasted from New York to a
supposedly throbbing world that Marilynn Mil
Ter. a musical comedy actress. and Mr. Ziegfeld,
who produces shows in which Miss Miller ap-
pears, have decided to make up. The pair had
been quarreling over husband whom Miss
Miller had recently taken unto herself, and his
qualifications or lack Of them for that capacity.
Mr. Ziegfeld was reported to have considered
the groom untitled for the office. and Miss Mil
Ter to have thought him an eminently proper
young man to marry
Their quarrel was conducted. when the
principals could arrange to have it so, through
the newspapers. and sentence in the story of
the grand hatchet-burying seems to furnish the
key to the whole incident. Miss Miller is to
reappear this fall in a Ziegfeld production. The
new husband is to be starred in various motion
picture efforts Mr. Ziegfeld's wife, who was
reported at one time to have been on the point
of leaving him. is also to grace the stage in a
new play. No one has been wounded irrepara-
bly, in the encounter, and everyone concerned
has managed to get his or her business plans for
the impending season thoroughly exploited in
the press.
Mr.. Thomas, who is the theater's new car,
is not the sort of gentleman who employs blue
publicity to foster interest in the plays he him.
self writes and produces. He will do a valuable
work if he encourages others who make liveli-
hood in the theater to depend as largely as pos
sible on their own energy and historic talent
for the fame they seek.
