NEXT LEADERS :.
MEET FRIDAY

A Scout Sing, conducted by Avery
johnson, will be the headline feature
of the Scout Leaders Training Course

week. Every Scout should sing, and
no troop completes all their work un-

be review in signaling conducted by
Rae Kneeshaw, First Aid competition,
Tag games and their use in troop
meetings and an exposition of the
sgood turn"
Interest in the class of the work
done by the members remains steady.
The course was half completed at the
session last Friday evening.
The last session was pronunced by
several to be one Of the most interest
ing in the entire course. Various fea-
lures were presentation Of flag sig
naling-both wig-wag and two arm
semaphore, by Rae Kneeshaw; a lee
ture on the theoretical side of First
Aid by DR.. w. F. Sihler; demonstra-
tion of Lint games and their function
in troop work, in which the members
of the class themselves participated,
the Tiger patrol winning the major
share of the honors: an observation
test, demonstration of how COM
pass points could be taught in the
form of game; and very inspiring
talk by prof. Nelson Sauvain on Boy
Psychology.
Members of the class also planned a
campaign to get others into the work
during the remainder of the course
because of the interesting features yet
to come.

unknown cause, and the first to awak-
en- was Mr.. Roe, who Immediately
carried his two daughters, the young

arrived and was able to put the blaze
out with the aid of the chemical
engines. \
The Roe family moved in from the
farm about month ago, and had
made arrangements to spend the win.

returned on Thursday of last week
from Chicago and Washington, D. c.,
where they spent the past month.
From here they went to Chicago to at
tend the funeral Of Mr.. Schutte's
father, who died on Sept. %, and
whose funeral was held on Sept. 26.
After spending a short time visiting
in Chicago they went to Washington,
D. c., to attend the notional conven-
ton of the American Red Cross, which
convened in the national capital from
Oct. to II. This convention was at
tended by delegates from every state
in the union, and six delegates from
North Dakota wre present. Mr..
Schultz acted as delegate from Ram
sey county, and was the only delegate
from the northwest to. be honored with
appointment on committee, he being
placed on the Credentials committee.
The convention was held at the Con-

the president was unable to be present,
but he invited the delegates to the
white house later, and all had an
opportunity to shake hands with him.
A picture Of the delegates taken in

CREAM BRINGS
BIGGEST PRICE
IN MANY YEARS

Dairy farmers in the Lake Region
are now getting AZ cents per pound
for their butter fat which is the
largest price paid here for many
years. In spite Of the fact that every
thing else that farmer produces
is low in price, and cannot be pro-
duced at profit, cream scars even
above the war prices, and those
farmers who are milking number
of good cows are making a big pro-
fit on them. Manager Hefte of the
Cobb plant told us that the present
price was higher than it had been at
any time since the plant was opened
in Devils Lake, and that he does not
remember when it was higher.
The only trouble the Cobb plant
is experiencing right now is the COM
ing in of an occasional can of cream
which is tainted with the smell Of
French weed and mustard. These
cans are being kept separate from the
other cans, and much lower price
is paid for them. The tainted cream
cannot be used in making first class
butter, and is not mixed with the
other cream. If farmers will remem-
ber to keep their milch cows away
from the French weed and mustard
for a few weeks during the fall, and
allow only cattle which are not milk
ing to feed on these weeds, they will
be able to get the highest price for
their butter fat.
Mr. Hefte is this week mailing out
many thousand circulars advising
dairy farmers to feed durum wheat
to their dairy cattle instead of SELL
ing it at the low price of 60 cents
per bushel. Some farmers are selling
the wheat for 60 cents, which is equ-
ivaent to $4,000 per ton, and buying
bran in some sections of the state
for $23.50 per ton. The circular sent
out explains how the wheat should
be fed, and contains much valuable in
formation for the dairy farmer.

auto THIEF IS
CAUGHT after.
so MILECHASE

A young man giving his name as
Louis Sigmund was taken in custody
on Wednesday night of last week by
Chief of Police Timboe and Deputy
Sheriff Tom Hansen on the charge
Of having stolen a Dodge touring
car from Glenn Clarke, Great Nor
thern employee here, and on being ia
ken before Police Magistrate Duell
Thursday afternoon, he waived ex-
animation and was bound over to the
district court. His bond was placed
at $1,000 which he was unable to
furnish, and now languishes in the
county Jail.
After taking the car here Sigmund
drove it to Michigan City where a
pinion broke, and he was unable t.
proceed any farther. He called at
the Orvog garage there and offered to
trade the stolen car for an Overland,
and his offer was accepted. He took
the Overland and started east, but
was gone only short time when
Orvig received a message from Chief
Of Police Timboe here asking him to
be ON the lookout for the stolen car.
Orvig answered that he had the stolen
car in his garage, but that the thief
was on his way east with another car.
When Orvig learned that the car he
got in trade was stolen property he
Immediately got into another car and
started after the thief, and found him
about three miles out of town. The
Overland was standing on the side of
the road with it's read end toward
Orvig, and alongside of it stood an
other car with unusually bright lights
which blinded Orvig so he did not
see the Overland, and ran into it
while travelling at high rate of
speed. Both the Overland as we'll as
the car. Orvig was driving were badly
wrecked.
Chief Tinboe and Deputy Hanson
arrived a short time after the crash,
and while the men were arguing, and
made the arrest. Sigmund is a young
man 20 years old, and says he came
here from Sorono, Wis, to work in
the Great Northern Shops restaurant
as waiter. The restaurant was recen-
tly closed which put him out of a job,
and he decided to ride home in a car
instead of by train. His trial will
take place at the next term Of district
court unless he decides to plead guilty
before that time.

County Commissioner Thos. H.
Maloney of the third district, who has
held his present position longer than
any other county officer in Ramsey
county, was in the city today shaking
hands with some of his friends and
doing some campaigning. From a
point of experience and desire to do
the right thing by his constituents Mr..
Maloney's place would be hard t, fill.
He has always taken a great in
terest in the office and everything
pertaining to it has had his closest at
tention. At all timees during the 16
years that he has served the people
of his district he has always done
his best to give everyone a square
deal, and there is no one that can say
truthfully that he ever used his posi-
ton for private gain or for the pur-
pose of getting even with any one.
He has done his best, and that his
efforts have been appreciated is
shown by the many times he was re-
elected to the same place.

SCHOOLS TO OBJ
SERvET. R. DAY

Boy Scouts throughout the country
will again this year observe the
birthday of their Chief Scout Citizen,
Theodore Roosevelt. This obser-
vance will take the form Of patriotic
mass meetings, outdoor and indoor,
with appropriate speeches and cere-
monials, the planting Of memorial
trees, the dedication of scout cabins,
and SO forth. AS usual the emphasis
will be placed by the leaders not only
on fittingly memorializing the man
who confomed So closely to the scout
ideal Of manhood physically
straight" defeated to God and coun-
try, but also on the responsibilities of
citizenship, which belong to boys as
we'll as to men.
AS James E. West, Chief Scout Ex-
ccutive, wrote recently to scout lead
ers all over the United States in urg-
ing this National observance of the
anniversary, "The two thoughts ami
mating the demonstrations are, first,
to do honor and to keep alive the
memory Of great American and a
good Scout, who kept the Scout Oath
and Law himself, and secondly, to in
spire Scouts and the public generally
with a desire to be better citizens, re-
membering that such as these have
lived and died. - The celebration has
the endorsement of the Roosevelt
family and Of the Roosevelt Memo
rial. Association, local branches Of
which organization will cooperate in
many cases with scout councils in OBJ
serving the day.
Here in Devils Lake Roosevelt Day
which comes on Friday of this week
will be appropriately celebrated with
special program to be given in the
Senior and Junior high schools, and
also in the fifth and sixth grades.
Scout Executive Leonard D. Fackler
has consented to give talk Friday
afternoon to the pupils of the fifth
and sixth grades on the life of Roose-
velt.

POTATO Ware
HOUSE BEING
FILLED FAST

The Dakota Potato and Seed Co.
is fast getting its warehouse on Mimi
ewaukan avenue filled with spuds.
Farmers started bringing them in i'm
mediately after threshing was over,
and many hundreds of bushels are
brought in every day. N. Warburton,
the manager, told us that he is pay
ing rs cents per bushel, and is buying
everything that is fit to eat. The ware
house holds about 1000 bushels, and
it is his intention to fill it before
he ships very much out, and up to the
present time has not shipped any
tubers out of Devils Lake, though he
shipped out several carloads from
neighboring cities rather than ship
them here. On account of the low
market at the present time a person
could make nothing by buying pota-
toes for rs cents per bushel and ship
ping them, and the only reason this
amount is being paid here now is the
fact that the tubers are stored and
will be sold at higher price later
in the winter and next spring.
Up until last week Mr.. Warburton
was not bothered any by frozen pota-
toes, but received several loads since
then that he was compelled to spread
out on the floor and sort out. Since
the several hard freezes it is neces-
sary for him to be very careful in
looking over the spuds before storing
them. He still has plenty of room,
and is buying all the potatoes he can
get, no matter what the variety, as
long as they are fit to eat.

Banner Twp. Item in. Stanley Pro-
motor:-While moving his poultry
from the Paukert farm to the Durkee
place, J. H. Hagen had an experience
that will prove valuable and that also
proved expensive. Mr.. Hagen had
loaded his poultry into double wagon
box, covered over, and leaving as he
thought sufficient opening for air for
the birds. However, on arrival at his
destination and beginning to unload,
he came to the 4O-lb. gobler dead as a
door nail. A few Of the birds revived
upon getting fresh cir but is turkeys
and II chickens refused to "come to-
and were, literally speaking dead
loss.

$172.9O Saved on Fuel Alone

Because fuel costs is one of the big items in
the production of cheap power. you ought to know
what you can expect on the fuel economy record
of the tractor you buy before you buy it.
The most reliable figures on this are those
published by the Nebraska State University in
the tests they conducted on tractors in 1920 and
1921. Practically all of the principal tractors
manufactured in the United States were tested.
law in Nebraska requires every manufacturer
to submit his tractor for severe tests before he s
allowed to sell in the state.
The above chart shows the fuel economy OBJ
tanned in the Nebraska State Tractor Tests on
the varying load test on all tractors with belt
rating of from eighteen to twenty five horse power
Study this table if you want some plain, unvarnish
ed facts about fuel economy.
Note that the average fuel used by all kero-
Cheyenne Wells record., 1922-05-04

sene tractors (Oil Pull excluded) is 344 gallons
per ten hour day. while the OilPu used only 21.1
gallons-a clean saving of 13 3 gallons, or thirty
nine per cent per day. At 13 cents per gallon
this means saving of $l7290. or thirty.nine per
cent saving the first 100 days on fuel alone
Figure how many days you expect to use your
tractor each season, multiply the saving of 49,
gallons per day by the cost Of kerosene and you
will get some idea of the saving an OilPull will
make for you on fuel alone.
Figure how many years you expect to use
your tractor (the OilPull averages more than ten
years service) and you will quickly see that the

is by far the cheapest tractor you can own.
