tenn has operated to obtain at least 6
cents more for buttcrfat than other
wise would be the case.
The prosperity of the cooperative
creameries has stimulated the whole
dairy industry Of the state If statistics
mean anything. 1t has led to an in
crease in the size Of the milking herds
and drawn other farmers into this
branch of diversified agriculture.
Even the independents, also referred
to as the ccntralizers, have been en-
couraged to establish more creamer-
les. In 1923 alone this led to the la
cation OF the Arrow creamery at He
bron, of the Linton creamery at Lin
ton of the Langdon independent
plant at Langdon, Of the Drayton
creamery at Drayton, and of the
Wahpeton creamery at Wahpcton.
Ole Lee Boosts Industry
The condition four years ago was
that there were more cream stations
in the state. Now the creamery sta
ton is either standing still or rcced-
Ing and the dairy farmer is getting
about six cents a pound more for
his butterfats, it is asserted by the
co-operatives.
Stimulation of the creamery and
dairy business also is shown by the
experience of Ole Lee He formerly
was In charge of cooperative cream
cry at Lake Park, MINI. In 1925 he
came to Dakota and established a
creamery at NOrthWCod on basis OF
10000 pounds Of butter annually. II
looked risky for time, bit Lee had
courage and went ahead and in 1925
he put out more than 250,0O0 pounds
OF butter, 1t is said. At the same time
his demand for cream and butterfats
has led to raising the price five cents
above what it used to be based on
New York and Chicago butter market

GIANT LOCOMOTIVE
TOO Big TO STABLE
OR TURN IN MANDAN
Stall in Roundhouse to Be Ex-
tended 30 Feet, lantry De-
cides on Visit Hero

| T. H. Lantry, general manager Of
the Northern Pacific. spent Tuesday
in Mandan on his way back to ST.
as far as Missoula. He passed through
here III his special car, attached to
the CAB train. II, the evening.
The stay in Mandan had to do with
arrangements there for placing the
gigantic new type locomotive in ser1-
ice over the grades between Mandan
and Glendive. Several problems have
been encountered as a result of the
unusual size Of these mechanical be-
hemoth5. Mand2n has developed two
of the problems, but both are being
solved.
One of the difficulties apparent at
Mandan, even before the engine ar
rived in ST. Paul. is the inability of
the roundhouse stalls to stable a To-
connective Of the new size. The prob
lem was solved by decision TO add 80
feet to one of the stalls and to set it
aside to house the giant.
Another problem was how to turn
the locomotive. The turntable in
the Mandan yards is not big enough
to take on the engine. Happily there
is Y in the yard and it was decided
to use this for heading around the
big machine.
The general manager was accom-
panied by B. F. Johnson mechanical
superintendent of the NJ p. and they
explained that the new locomotive is
the largest ever built in the country,
and is the largest in the world. The
ordinary locomotive hauling trains
through here is 90 feet in length. The
big special is l25 feet.
The fireboX of the new type is 2S
feet, 6 inches long. Two Buick cars
could be slowed away in 1t. said Cen

from one-strlng agriculture to di-
versify, and dairying is the first step.
AS all the creameries include a side
line of eggs and poultry. the installa-
ton of dairy herds everywhere is at
tended also by an expansion of the
feathered flockS on the farms and
by steps to convert these into stand
ard breeds. 1t Is held that there thus
is general uplift to the states agri-
cultural industry wherever the cream
cry is planted.
North Dakota, as this record shows,
owes a great deal of its dairy and
poultry prosperity TO the expansion
OF the creamery industry. and that
has been the unflagging aim and ef-
fort of John HUSKY, retiring dairy
commissioner of the state.

CHICAGO, November 17.-Chicago
ended its foot ball season today with
out winning a big ten conference game.
falling before the onSlaughts OF the
1927 champions. Illinois, 40 to 0.
It was an ideal setting to end such
disastrous season, rain falling during
most of the game on an already Soggy
sridiron. The nlini. however. were
mud-runners, piling up six touchdowns
with Frosty Peters, Douglas Mills and
Walker leading the barrage.
Mills supplied the big thrill OF the
afternoon when he dashed rs yards
through the entire Chicago team for
his touchdown.
Peters opened the attack in the first
period. dashing almost so yards for the
first score He added two other touch
downs and Walker scored two, one after
racing IS yards following a pass of %
yards from Peters.
Nowack, Illini captain, kicked four
out of five tries for points after touch
down. Peters tried the last kick after
his third touchdown just before the
game ended.
Chicago was overwhelmed through
out. The Stagg-coached team had moth
ing to offer in the way of an offense
and its defense was almost as bad
