Next season ii will buy for freezing as well as fresh. MT. Morris will continue to rep resent it here. It expects to largely increase the volume oi it's buying here.

DERAILMENT VICTIM
PROBABLY SCOBEY BOY

State dailies tell of the death
of a young man near Fort Ben
ton, when an oil tank car on
which the boy was taking a free
ride left the track and crushed
him against another car. 1t is
now thought the victim was the
son of Pat Burke, or Burg, of SEQ
hey.
This belief is based on the fact
that a slip of paper bearing SEQ
hey post office box number was
found in the young mans pocket
and that the number is the same
as the number of the box used by
Pat Burke. The number was
wired to Scobey by authorities at
Fort Benton and turned over to
Mr.. Burke, who at once came to
Wolf Point, arriving at 100 a. m.
Thursday morning and registering
as P. F. Burke, it is stated.
He took No. / Thursday morn
ing to learn if the body held was
tha of his son.

RESULT
OF AUTO SPILL
TAXI ROLLS OVER
SIX ABOARD-FIVE HAVE
LUCKY ESCAPE

Charles Edwards, aged about 43,
lost his life as the result of an
accident to the car he was driving
last Saturday evening. The fatal
crash occurred on the Roosevelt
highway seven miles east of here.
Edwards was taken unconscious
from beneath his car and died at
local hospital at ten a. m. Mon
day morning without regaining
consciousness. Death was attrib-
uted by the attending physician
to concussion of the brain.
Passengers
In the car as Edwards passen-
gers were Mr.. and Mrs. William
Baker, w. c. Tatem, Claude and
Floyd Nichol. Mrs. Baker and
Mr.. Tatem were severely bruised
but the others were uninjured eX-
cepting for the shock and shake
up. One of the Nichol boys jump
ed from the car before it turned
over. Mr.. and Mrs. Baker were in
the front seat with the driver
Edwards was not a local resi-
dent but was here buying metal
junk for the Fargo Iron and Metal
Co. and stayed at the Neal room
ing house on Third street. Satur-
day afternoon he learned of sew
eral people who wished to go to
Poplar to attend dance and Of
fered to take them in his car, an
old model Dodge.
Hold Hearing
A hearing to investigate the
cause of the accident was held at
Clayton's undertaking rooms Mon
day by Justice Gordon and Depu-
ty County Attorney Foor. Testi-
mony was given by DR.. J. c. De
Wane, Policeman Shamley, w. c.
Tatem and Mr.. and Mrs. Baker.
William Neal and peg" Jones
were questioned. Tatem and Bak-
er both said it was evident to
them after Edwards had driven a
ways that he was under the infiu-
ence of intoxicants. Baker said he
smelled the odor of liquor on the
drivers breath. Just before the
accident Baker said he asked per
mission to take the wheel and
was refused, but Edwards prom
ised to be careful. He drove
nearer the left side of the high
way than the right.
Very soon after refusing Baker
permission to drive, Edwards com
pletely lost control, it was said,
and the car zigzaged from one side
of the road to the other at least
three times, then jack-knifed and
turned over apparently once and
half but remained on the grade.
Some of the passengers estimated
the speed of the car at 30 miles
an hour. The accident happened
near the spot where Bob Witt met
death last summer.
Family Not Located
A message to Edwards employ
ers brought an answer that they
were unable to locate his family
and directed that the body be
held. Late Thursday Undertaken
CLAYTON was still without orders
as to the disposal Of the body.

CULTIVATE EARLY
CONSERVE MOISTURE

Plow or cultivate summer fal-
low at once and conserve the max
imum amount of moisture, is the
advice of A. ]. Ogaard, agrono-
mist for the Montana extension
service. Land which is cultivated
or disked now will dry out less
and will be in better condition to
plow than if left to grow up to
weeds during the next 20 days.
Mr.. Ogaard points out that the
successful Montana wheat grove
plans his work one year ahe2'
and is now showing concern ova
the wheat crop of 1928 by summ9
