RUM0RS GAR.

As Long as There Are Two

Be an Encampment

Minneapolis, Mimi, Sept IA
Rum0rs emanating from Des Moines
to the effect that the G. A. r. plans
to disband during the annual en-
campment which begins September 10,
were regarded as utterly ridiculous y
Saturday by two Minneapolis mem
bers who have always been prominent
in the activities of the organization.
Samuel r. Van SAINT, former Mime
sofa governor, who has served as ma
ti0nal commander of the G. A. r., and
Eli Torrance, one Of its most active
members, Joined Saturday in denying
the authenticity of the reports. Both
will attend the encampment at Des
MOines and attempt to determine the
source Of the rumor.
$50 long as there are two living
members Of the G. A. r., there will
be an annual encampment," said Mr..
Van SAINT. II have heard these re-
ports in other years and it seems
ridiculous that anyone would think
for single moment that members Of
an. organization plan to disband when
its preservation is one Of its leading
percepts."
The report said that Mr.. Van SAINT
was Q member Of q committee OF
three which would vote for disband-
ing. This he denied.
II am . member Of committee ol
three which will decide what is to be
done with . surplus fund which we
now have on hand" Mr.. Van SAINT
said.

ROAM RANCH
NEAR MIN0T'
Fence Separates Pure-bred
Cattle From Bison on
Parker Stock Farm

Minot. N. D., Sept. -Buffaloes
whose ancestors ranged tho same
prairie lands century and more
ago, are being raised on part of the
large stock farm Of Clarence H. Par
ker. near this city.
With u rolling pasture of 700 acres,
the Parker herd Of buffaloes is being
permitted to grow until il will tax
the capacity Of the ranch.
Theirs, however, is only q small
part Of the immense Parker ranch Of
$500 acres. For Parker owns some
$50 head Of cattle, half Of which
are highly valued pure-bred Here
fOrds. There are also registered Red
Polled beef cattle and some pure bred
Perchcron horses.
The entire ranch is operated sole
ly as stock k-raising venture with
only enough crops grown to insure
acres under cultivation, more than
rest is open to the stock for grazing.
Large Harvest
Due to the modern irrigation meth
DDS, Parker expects to havest about
1000 tons of hay from the large
meadow on the farm. The valley has
yielded as high as 2,4O0 tons Of hay
Of the high h-class blue grass variety.
Parker is especially interested in
the rearing of his buffalo herd. It's
a small herd today, but he expects
to bring it up to more than 200 head
winthin two years.
Parker has sentimental reasons for
raising buffalo on his ranch. Wealthy
sportsman and hotel owner of Minot,
he recalled the days when these ami
mails roamed the very land he now
owns and when they were shot down
almost to annihilation by Indians and
white hunters.
Forty years ago. Parker's ranch
was headquarters for buffalo bone
industry Of large proper
tiOns, as result of these ruthless
Small Herd Now
Now he wants to bring them back
to their own, not only as specimens
Of American stock, but rs valuable
meat animals. He has started with
23 buffaloes, seven of them males. He
expects to have 200 in few years.
Buffalo cows have calves every 9TH
cr year. Several calves will be horn
on the Parker ranch this year. Cows
will not mate the next year after
raising "a calf. The result will be
an overabundance of bull calves, u
battle for supremacy among them
and the exile Of the physically weak
err bulls from the herd.
During the summer. the buffalo
herd is left out on the ranch with
only wire fence keeping them FROM
In winter. however. they
are placed in more substantial quar-
tiers, to- keep them from following
their roaming instinct.
Parker values his ranch at $50, 900.

FARMER-LABOR

cision Within Month
Hearing Held Saturday


Decision in the case Of the Farm
err Laborites who Saturday presented
to the supreme court their conten-
tion that they should be given a
place on the general election ballot
in November, probably will be made
within month, members of the court
indicated following the hearing.

Reichert, complainant, in petition
asking that the court order Secretary
of State Byrne to place his name
on the ballot 40 Farmer-Labor can
didate for congress in the second
cOntended that the law re-
curing minimum of 300 votes for
a candidate is unconstitutional be-
cause it tends to abbreviate the
power Of the electors. The alterna-
tive provision of the law which re-
quires o candidate to get three per
cent OF the vote cast for his party
candidate for the same office at the
last preceding election, does not ap-
ply, Nuchols said. since the Farmer
Laborites had no congressional cam
didate in the second district at the
last election.
Attorney General George Shafer,
defending the action for Secretary Of
state Byrne. contended that the
theory and intent of the law is to
bar from the ballot all parties or
candidates who cannot muster as
many votes as are required on a
nominating petition or three per
cent of the vote east for the same
office at the preceding election.
Disposition Of the. Reichert case,
it is believed, will determine whether
or not other Farme~Labor candi-
dates for state and national office,
none Of whom received the required
number Of votes, will bring similar
actions in an effort to get on the
general election ballot.
