John Brady was standing around
his morning talking about the wonder
full corn crop being raised on his farm
in the Litchvl:le neighborhood and was
getting enthusiastic about it. He said
that Mike Naughton was with him and
will verify any statement he makes.
Brady claims that Naughton is very
tall man but he could not reach any,
where to the top of those cornstalks
and says that anybody wanting to get
to the top Of any stalk raised, on his
farm would need an extension ladder.
He maintains that the ears on these
stalks are anywhere from a foot to a
yard long--mostly foot, however. J. J.
Chamberlain butted in at this time to
say that when he was home his folks
raised corn that beat that all to pieces
and they paid no attention to corn
stalks that did not touch the skyline.
The eight o'clock whistle blew about
that time and Brady hoped on his N.
P. auto and took his crew up the line
to see if the sun had warped the rails
along his division.

About seven o'clock Saturday eve
ming an accident occurred on East
Main Street and Second Avenue which
might have been fatal or have caused
much more damage than it did. A
Ford coupe driven by Mrs. Ole Brude
void was going east on Main Street
and a Ford touring car driven by Mr..
R. E. Stee, was turning out from the
curb near the Salvation Army Bar
racks. Mr.. Stee thinking he had time
to make the turn in front of the COM
ing car, but owing to the speed Of the
other car he failed to cross the street
in time and the Ford Coupe hit his car,
breaking the rear wheel and the Ford
Coupe was damaged good deal more.
The radiator was smashed and the rad
ius rods bent. It seems that the driver
Of the coupe either lost control or be-
came excited when she saw that she
couldn't miss hitting the other car and
instead Of turning away she turned
right into the other car. No one was
injured.

the contempt charges against the four
railroad employee strikers from Devils
Lake was postponed until Saturday
by Federal Judge Amidon yesterday

They must, however, keep in touch
with Attorney Lenke, so that they
can be reached if they are wanted.
The men are Valentine Gerhart, James
Mccormick, Lyle Dressle and James
Harkins, who are charged with the
violation Of the injunction against

Sunday was Mrs. F. E. Ployhar's
birthday and in order to make the day
"a joyful one her spouse pulled off a
very successful family dinner at the
Ployhar home as surprise on Mrs.
! Ployhar. While she was attending
divine worship at the church Frank
and some of his relatives fixed up a
dinner that would have gladdened the
heart of anybody. Roast sucking pig
was the prime dish Of the feast and
there were other trimmings that con-
itributed toward making the feast Of
Belshazzar fade into insignifcance-
only there was none Of the wines and
"sech" like there was when Belshazzar
was holding high court. 1t was a
great spread anyway, and Senator
Ployhar is proud of the way he en-
gineered the surprise, assisted by his
relatives. Mrs. Ployhar no doubt en-
joyed sitting down to a real feed that
she herself did not have to prepare.
The whole affair was nicely carried
out by the Persons, Codding and Ploy-
har families and a joyous time enjoy
ed and the guest of honor was wished
many happy returns of the day by all
taking part.

The population of North Dakota is
estimated to be about 725 900 or, fgur
ing persons to family, this means
145,OOO families within the state
borders. Within the next 6 weeks the
thoughts of all of them will be. cen
tered on one thing. and that one
thing will be coal and how and where
to get it.
The fact is, the people of this coun-
try, and of North Dakota, have been
waiting so patiently for the strike to
be settled that they have forgotten all
about the coal that has not been mined
Most of the outside coal used in North
Dakota, South Dakota and Minnesota
is mined in about 6 states, shipped
either by water to Duluth, or by rail
to Minneapolih, and from there redis-
tributed until it finally reaches the out
lying villages and homes on the far
prairies. The total tonnage of all
kinds of coal mined in those states in
1921 was about $50 million tons, for
the whole year. Of this total about
IL million tons is consumed by the
Northwest.
But for precious months of this
year hardly ton of coal has been
mined. This total tonnage has been
thereby cut nearly in half, and this
shortage will be carried to each Sec
ton of the United States. Instead of
having on hand 100000, tons of coal
the Northwest will have but 6,000,-
900.
And North Dakota's share of this,
for her industrial and domestic pur-
poses will be, on paper,about 100000
tons. Already Governor Nestos is TAX
ing steps to procure fair share from
the United States Fuel administrator,
and hopes to be able to do so. But
when the condition of cars is consider
ed and the tie-up of the railroads on
account of their strike, the chances
of an adequate supply of outside coal
for this state offer serious problem.
Fortunately however, the condition of
North Dakota is better than that of
to Minneapolis, and from there redis-
she has her own Ignite coal supply,
which in 192O-21 produced $4,000 tons

A deal was consummated last Sat-

the owner of J. w. Aldrich's taxi line.
In the deal Mr.. Granger gets the big
bus and the taxis. Possession of the
business has already been assumed by
the new proprietor. Mr.. Aldrich has
worked up in the past few years a
very fine and paying taxi business and
we feel sure that Mr.. Granger will go
after the business and keep the taxi
line up to the present high standard
of efficiency. The Times-Record wish
es for Mr.. Granger success and hopes
that his business venture will prove
to be lucrative one for him.
