ESTABLISHED. 1873 CITY FOLKS DAY OF FUN Hundreds Enjoy Get-Together and Outing Held Thursday at Fort Lincoln CONTESTS ARE HELD Varied Program Is Carried Out By Burleigh County Dairy Association What a day that was! And how the kiddies and grown- ups enjoyed it! From all over the county they came and from Goodrich and Sheridan counties to make the annual outing and get-together of the Burleigh County Cow Testing as- sociation at Fort Lincoln yesterday a success. From the time the parade started until A. C. Jordan won the $100 bull calf given by Louis Garske, presi- dent of the association, for being most adept in the horse shoe-throw- ing contest there were just smiles and smiles on the faces of the crowds. And of course, in the after- noon and evening there was dancing, Begin With rade Festivities began with a parade in the downtown district of the city shortly after 10 o'clock. Behind Judge W. S, Casselman, marshal of the day, came the Boys Scout color bearers, and then the most impres- sive part of the parade, an automo- bile occupied by two grizzled veter- ns of the Civil War. They were Stephen Welch, 86 years old, and the last survivor of the McPherson post, G. A. R., and Wesley Baker. The oth- er Civil War veteran residing in Bis- marck was unable to be with his comrades. Following the parade the party from Bismarck drove to Fort Lincoln where a large gathering was await- ing theme The Juvenile and Good- rich bands entertained the constant- ly-growing throng while Mrs, Frank Barnes and her committee arranged for the huge community lunch which was served in cafeteria style with the food laid out on a long table in front of Co. A. barracks. Day Was Ideal 3 The day was ideal for an outing and by the time the afternoon pro- gram began there were 600 cars parked between the buildings of the fort and about 2,000 people were on the grounds. And while the kiddies were play- fag with the toy airplanes which were distributed and the soda pop and ice cream stand was doing @ rushing business, the afternoon speaking program began. Leonard Bell, vice president of the First National bank of Bismarck, ntroduced the speakers. He told of ‘arming methods as he had observed them during a trip abroad. “Every foot of land is cultivated; in Begium on an intensive scale,” he said. “The average farm there is two or three acres in size. Farming methods are so primitive there that during my whole stay in Belgium I didn’t see even one mule on a farm. Then John Husby, state commis- sioner of dairy production, mounted the truck used as the speaker's plat-; form and gave an address on “The Development of Dairy Farming in North Dakota.” Step Forward The commissioner prefaced the address with a few words of appre-, viation of the spirit of the outing.| It showed, he said, that the country and town are getting together for a common purpose. He lauded the| mingling of business men with farmers as a step forward toward mutual understanding of each other’ problems. “It is getting to a point where the farmer must come in contact with; the business man and the business: man’s interests lead further than his door,” said Mr. Husby, f He then traced the development of dairy production in the state and referred back to figures kept as long ago as 1900. “In 1900 there were 15 creameries in North Dakota”, said Mr. Husby. “A year later there were 8 new ones and in 1902 14 new ones were built, making a total of 37 creameries ex- isting in the state at the end of 1902. “At that time there were 1,796 pa- trons of creameries in the state. Re- ports to the dairy commissioner in 1902 show that 286,000 pounds of butter fat were made by creameries and that $300,000 was paid to the farmers for milk and cream. This was in the days before the hand separator. Production Increases “By 1924 the production of dairy products had increased to a such a great extent that in that year 23,000,- 000 pounds of butterfat were pro- duced. In the period from 1901 to 1924 there was an increase in dairy production of 338 per cent in Bur- leigh county.” In spite of this huge increase dairy production is still in its in- fancy in this state, said Mr. Husby. There are great possibilities not on- ly in North Daota but in the entire country for a development of dairy- ing on an extensive scale, he de- clared. The United-States is far be- low other countries in consumption of dairy products, he said. The next speaker was Gordon W. Randlett, director of the agricultural service of the state Agricultural Col- lege. He told the gathering there were many advantages in North Da. kota, especially as regards opportun- ity for diversified farming, soil con- ditions and general farming condi- tions. Grows Best Alfalfa “If the cows in North Dakota were properly taken care of and fed North Dakota alfalfa, then the mort gages on North Dakota farms would be raised,” he said. “There is no better alfalfa than in this’ stat After putting the throng into a good-natured mood by telling humor- ous stories, R.

Defense Starts Battle to. Save William D. Shepherd ¢ From Gallows meh FAIMAN TELLS STORY Olson Says Isabel Pope Will Get Fortune Regardless of Jury’s Decision Chicago, June 19.—VP)—The state rested its case in the Shepherd mur- der trial at 12:20 p. m. and the de- fense began to présent -evidence. Chicago, June 19.—(P)—Chief Jus- tice Harry Olson, of the municipal court, who has been the chief fig- ure in the prosecution of William D. Shepherd, accused of causing the death of William N. McClintock, de- clared today that regardless of the outcome of the Shepherd trial, “Isa- bel Pope, (McClintock's fiancee) will come into possession of the fortune.” Judge Olson said Miss Pope even-|Sfain exchangé in Grand Forks is{ tually will be declared McClintoe! lawful heir on the ground th herd obstructed and held wedding cogtra State Case Finished Presentation of the state case against Shepherd has been complet- ed and further testimony in the trial depends upon the plans of the defense. The prosecution took just one week to give the jury its evi- dence. Charles C. Faiman, who testi late yesterday, never faltered in his accusation of Shepherd, and with his testimony in, Prosecutor Robert E. Crowe announced the state’s case was ended. Called as a witness by the court after Prosecutor Crowe, in an elev- enth hour move late yesterday, an- nounced he could not sponsor him because he could not vouch for his ‘testimony, Faiman gave his testi- mony upon direct examination by Judge Thomas L. Lynch. Talks For Hour Faiman talked for an hour in a dead, flat monotone scarcely audible, with’ downcast eyes, much wetting of the lips and with much shifting about in the witness chair. He said he gave Shepherd 3 test tubes full of typhoid bacilli, taught him how to slay young McClintock with them, gave Shepherd back an incriminating letter for $50, demand- ed $250,000 for his participation in the elimination of Billy McClintock, was willing to accept $200,000 for} |his part, and finally agreed upon $100,000, ‘testified Faiman. Faiman is under indictment wit Shepherd as a confessed accomplice. Becomes Suspicious Faiman admitted that he did not know Shepherd contemplated murder when he gave him the typhoid germ, and said that he first became sus- picious when Shepherd sought to r: cover the letter and said he had big proposition on.” Faiman admit- ted that despite having been in com-| tl munication with Shepherd. several times since then he never has sought to collect the promised $100,000.

Notwithstanding dark, threatening clouds overhead and __ intermittent showers, nearly 5,000 farmers—their families, and business men from Val- ley € declared a holiday and romped around the grove at the Ras- mussen farm. Governor Sorlie’s address was the first event on a program replete with action from start to finish, the gov- ernor being introduced by Senator Frank B. Ployhar of Valley City. Governor Sorlie’s Address “We must all work together to sell North Dakota to ourselves, before we attempt to sell it to others, but when we have sold it to ourselves, let’s show the outsiders that that; something is protein wheat,” said Governor Sorlie in his address. “I am not in politics,” he said. “! am chairman of a public service cor- | poration—North Dakota.

ASK FOR PARLEY Pekin, June 19.—The foreign pow- ers today suggested to the Chinese government the undertaking of nego- tiations to settle both the questions !arising from recent disturbances in Shanghai and also to disc the broad aspect of conditions in China generally. The Italian minister representing the ministry of other foreign pow- ers interested in the Chinese situa- tion made this suggestion personally to the Chinese foreign office today. His expressed desire was that the negotiations deal with all aspects of conditions contributing to the unrest at Shanghai and consequently _in- fluencing conditions throughout China. It was understood the diplomatic corps will propose that a delegation representing the United States, France and Italy discuss the question of the adminstration of the foreign concessions in Shanghai with a view of meeting the Chinese desire.

Raold Amundsen, who re- turned to Spitzbergen ‘yesterday after his tional Arctic flight, is di tisfied with the results obtained and is “quite determined to resume the at- tempt” to reach the pole. The explorer is quoted as de- clearing that the experience gained in his present attempt would enable him to obtain his goal. The other menthbers of the ex- Pedition, the account continues, appear ‘equally animated by a desire to beat the aerial polar expeditions planned by other countries. They expressed the view that im- portant scientific results had been achieved. Captain Amundsen himself was reticent. Amundsen’s comrades were unan- imous in their appreciation of his leadership. The Amesican member of the party, Lincoln Ellsworth, was saddened by the news awaiting him of the death of his father in Italy during his stay in the north, but said he would continue his financial backing of Captain Amundsen. PLANS NEW ATTEMPT Stockholm, Sweden, June 19.—(®) —A dispatch received here from Oslo, Norway, says the two airplanes in which Roald Amundsen’s expedi- tion set out for the north pole on May 21 arrived in Spitzbergen Tues- day afternoon. The dispatch indicates that the members of the expedition are safe and that it is likely a new attempt to reach the pole will be made short- y. ‘The dispatch received here says Amundsen used up so much fuel that he was unable to continue and after descending in latitude 87.10 was forced to return to Spitzbergen. Latitude 87.10, where the Stock- holm dispatch says Amundsen came down because of a shortage in his supply of gasoline, is only about 200 miles from the north pole and abou: 600 miles from King’s bay, Spitzer- gen, where the expedition took off for the flight. Prior to the arrival of the Stock- holm dispatch the indications were that the Amundsen planes had re- turned to Spitzbergen Thursday, in- stead of Tuesday as the Stockholm advices have it. Tuesday mentioned in the Stockholm dispatch possibly may be an error in the transmission of the cable. Two Other Planes Ready If Amundsen’s planes have been damaged by the ice, there still are two, other planes in Spitzbergen which he and his party can use in another endeavor to fly to the north pole and back. These two planes, be- longing to the Norwegian govern- ment expedition sent to the north to try to locate the missing north pole expedition, arrived at King's bay Wednesday from Norway. : FRANCE, SPAIN: BLOCK COAST OF MOROCCO Paris, June 19.—(P)—A blockade of the Moroccoan coast by French and Spanish war ships to prevent arms and munitions reaching Abd- El-Kraim, the warring leader of Mor- occoan tribesmen, became effective at 5 o'clock this morning.
