D. Odou, J. C. Jirikowic, and Dr. W. D. Crewe, state veterinarian, of this city. Since the first test was made in an attempt to clear the state of bo- vine tuberculosis, 1,523,467 tests have been made and 21.671 reactors found among these. The state now has 65,179 herds under supervision, comprising 1,003,239 cattle. Four Counties Added Four counties have been added to the accredited area, which, in a few years, will cover the entire state—/| these being Traill, McLean, Mountrail and Griggs—giving a total of 30! counties in the accredited belt. Six counties in which three years’ accreditation had expired have been retested and reaccredited. All the cattle in seven other counties have been tested and will be accredited on the completion of the retesting of the infected herds. These counties are Divide, Williams, McHenry, Pierce, Sheridan, Burleigh, and Morton. Five mote counties are being organized and will be ready for testing this fall— . McIntosh, Oilver, and Grant. Fifteen counties are left in the state to test. After the completion of the testing of those, says the report, the state will have been placed in modified accredited tuberculosis- lst. 5,361 Herds Now Accredited to this time the tests 5,361 accredited prising 104,200 cattle. the retesting in the six counties | 112 reactors were found. test was made on 142,930 th showed 1,410 reactors. same number of cattle retested. report notes another outbreak glanders in the horses of the state. disease showed up among animals | state road construction head of these had to be bating the spread of Three isolated cascs ered, running to 40 horses slain in suppress- .

Rumor of Anthrax Recently the livestock sanitary board received a report of a possible outbreak of anthrax in the vicinity of Hankinson. The details have not yet been ascertained by the committee, the report says. Other than this pos- sibly erroneous report, the state has been free of this dread livestock dis- ease. \ The only disease problem among } sheep owners is the prevalence of in-| testinal parasites, which, says the re- Port, have caused some | in bands, especially among lamb: While prosperous, the hog industry ; of the state last year was faced with a spread of hog cholera into new areas, the committee reports. The in- fection appeared in several northern tier counties where it had never be- fore appeared. A few serious out- breaks also appeared in the south- western part of the state, also hitherto free of the disease. The latter outbreak was traced to bringing in infected hogs from South Dakota, while in the northern sec- tion the disease was due to feeding garbage and to the curiosity of neigh- bors, resulting in carrying the infec- Tuberculosis in Poultry Tubesculosis in poultry exists ex- tensively throughout the state, says the report. Wide testing is not prac- tical, it adds, being too expensive and ‘not proved capable of effectively eradicating the disease. It is recom- mended that poultry owners in whose flocks the disease is discovered elim- inate all birds over a year old and carry over only the young birds, keep- ing their premises as free from in- fectious material as possible. t AT THE MOVIES i PALACE THEATRE, MANDAN Lovers of musical plays with more Palace ‘neatre, Mandan, while “The Time, the Place and the Girl” is Playing for the last time tonight. This is Warner Bros.’ Vitaphone mu- sical comedy, made from the Hough, Adams and Howard musical comedy hit of yesteryear. It is a corking bit of entertainment and proves that the screen is a real rival of the stage in the production of musical comedies. Indeed it develops a number of ad- vantages over the stage. tion home from the infected hog lots. ; - - By George Clark | ©1929 NEA SERNICE INC TES OAL OLE, “Jove, that’s almost it, if it only had the cherry on it.’ other old song hit are sung with fine effect by the principgls. An evening of unalloyed delight is in store for everyone who visits the Palace theatre tonight. CAPITOL THEATRE Daring tail spins, loops, barrel rolls, banks and turns are among the spec- tacular air stunts featured in the air rodeo of the screen, “The Flying Ma- rine,” synchronized with dialogue and a beautiful musical score, which opened at the Capitol theatre last night. Ben Lyon, Shirley Mason and Jason Robards are the featured players. It is ea drama that will hold you spellbound. The thrills of aviation form the background for a love story of great human interest. Two brothers fall in love with the same girl. The girl promises herself to the younger brother, only to find that it is the older one she loves. Just as she is about to break her engagement her fiancee suffers a severe injury in an airplane crash. His life depends on his faith in her. She masks her true feeling to save the boy. When all seems hopeless as far as the happi- ness of these three young people are concerned, fate enters in the form of grim tragedy and. effects a solution of their problem. The story is absorb- ingly realistic. Ben Lyon gives a splendid perform- ance as the dashing young aviator. Shirley Mason, the petite and pretty heroine, and Jason Robards, in the role of the older brother, render nat- ural performances, Albert S. Rogell is responsible for the excellent direction. A picture that will thrill and enter- tain.

D., July 12—()—A ton of Printed matter will be distributed to North Dakota school teachers to aid them in teaching temperance in the schools, according to an announce- ment issued at the Anti- Saloon league headquarters here, today. The literature will be used in a drive to aid enforcement of the pro- hibition law by inducing voluntary abstinence on the part of North Da- kota citizens, the statement said. ‘The Anti-Saloon league hopes to place before boys and girls of the state the evils of alcoholic liquor when used as a beverage and to convince them of the “wonderful blessing which prohibition has been to the millions of people in America,” said Thomas W. Gales, league superin- tendent, in outlining the program. Gales said he realizes that prohibi- tion enforcement has been, in many Places, in the hands of its enemies and has not had a fair chance. In spite of this, however, it has been an economic blessing to millions and has saved hundreds of thousands from drunkards’ graves, he said. Gales is making a tour of the'state teachers colleges, speaking to the 3,- 500 teachers enrolled in the summer schools. He will deliver lectures on how to teach temperance in the schools and will present to each teacher a working knowledge of the subject on prohibition from the Anti- Saloon league standpoint and con- taining simple lessons for use in class work during the next school year. Teachers will be asked to sign cards at the same time Gales speaks and the literature will be sent to them by mail. Included with it will be 50 illustrative charts in colors, Cherrington’s “An- swers to favorite wet arguments,” a booklet entitled “They Almost Had Me Fooled,” and other pamphlets. Denying that prohibition was in- tended to make men good by law, Gales said: ‘Prohibition is in the con- stitution and it is there to stay, but temperance education has been sadly neglected during the last 10 years and as a result we have coming on every year a million voters who never knew the monster evils of the legalized al- cohol liquor traffic which resulted in the prohibition amendment to the constitution. The eighteenth amend- ment was not intended to make men good by law. It was intended to re- move the social standing, the legal rights and the political power of the liquor maker and seller and this it has accomplished.” Arnegard Club Girls Win on Club Exhibits Displayed at Minot That 4-H Clothing club work in Mc- Kenzie county makes satisfactory Progress is indicated by the excellent showing made by three of the Arne- gard club girls at the Minot fair last week. All three articles exhibited won prizes. The prizes were won as fol- lows: Loraine Smedsrud, first, for pa- Jamas; Stella Iverson, second, for af- ternoon dress; and Marion Larson, fourth, for house dress. Marion Lar- son, Henrietta Stenehjem and Thelma Eikren, president of the club, accom- pened H. J, and Mrs. Siemens to the fair. The Arnegard club is the oldest of the three clothing clubs in the county. It was organized last October and is just about to finish the first year's work. The Banks and Rawson 4-H Clothing clubs were organized this summer and will be one year behind the Arnegard club in their work. VERY EXCLUSIVE Wellington, N. Z.—Physicians and other medical men have an exclusive row of seats in the back of a theatre here which is called “doctors’ row.” A doctor anticipating an emergency by/call can attend the theatre and, by means of a portable telephone, can talk to anyone calling him at the theatre without leaving his seat. Credit Corporation To Assist McKenzie Sheep Men Expand Several sheep raisers in McKenzie county have indicated their intentions of selling part of their flock for breed- ing purposes at attractive prices. A letter has been received from the Agricultural Credit corporation, Min- to advance credit to the extent of $10 Per ewe to anyone wishing to buy any of these ewes, provided his financial statement is such that his application can be accepted. Loans will be made at the rate of 6's per cent interest, Payable in three years. Anyone wishing to take advantage of this method of buying ewes should first get in touch with County Agent Siemens. McKenize Farmers Try Poison to Kill Quack Grass Plague During the last few weeks a num- ber of McKenzie county farmers have tried the sodium chlorate poison method of killing quack grass. The requests for this poisoning demon- stration have come in much faster than was anticipated and the supply of the sodium chlorate has been ex- hausted, temporarily. In several weeks a new supply will be on hand. Those who have applied for the demonstrations are: Al. Keene; Louis Larson, Arnegard; Henry Olson, Rawson; John Hagen, Watford City; Ole O.

Lucy, waging a fight to prove Jerry did not murder his father, dashed to the desert mine to warn him. She explains to her dumbfounded un- cle that Jerry needed her aid, that without informing him of his fa- ther’s death or the police charge, drove with him to a neighboring town, where they were married. Only then she advised Jerry of the serious case against him. Their daring wins—Deacon is convinced Jerry is innocent, that Dillon is the real murderer. The telephone bell interrupts them—Peebles an- sewers. CHAPTER 45 A CHALLENGE FROM DILLON ‘When I hung up the receiver two minutes later Deacon, Lucy and Jerry were looking at me with varying de- grees of interest. I had kept my ex- Pression casual, but it would hardly have been possible for them not to Te have sensed something of the emotion Teleased in my breast. “You'll have to excuse me, Dea- con,” I said carelessly. “A man has Just called me about a matter I must attend to at once. I'm sorry. Your car is at the door, isn't it, Jerry? Do you mind if I use it?” “Help yourself, Uncle John. Shall T drive you?” “No, you'd better stay with Lucy.” He didn't repeat the offer and I smiled understandingly. Lucy gave me a quizzical look and Henry a sur- prised one. Meanwhile, I had got out my little red notebook, and carelessly fingered the pages. In the same care- less fashion I now opened the right- hand bottom drawer of my desk, took out my automatic and slipped it into @ my coat pocket. From where they were none of the three could have @|seen the pistol. “Whom are you going to see, Uncle John?” Lucy wanted to know. “A man,” I said irritably. But as Deacon and I went out tq- gether I felt that she wasn't satis- fied. Henry drove off. “Uncle John!” Lucy had come run- 5 telephoned? he know something about Dillon?” Tt wasn't a bad guess and I was tempted to tell her, but I gave her an evasive reply.

Night would GOLD BU By CHARLES G. hot wind on my cheeks fanned these strange emotions. Tenuous fingers encircled my throat. I rode in a splendid tomb, but a tomb. Was it to be mine? I made out a huddle of buildings in the ebony gloom ahead. I stopped at the head of the crooked street, shut. off the engine, and got out. The brooding quietness of the place must have bewitched me for I neglected to switch off my lights. This error near- | ly cost me my life. Crack! As the bullet whined past a matter of six or eight inches above my head, I dropped against the side of the car. The shock or this abrupt Trending of the silence held me rigid for a moment; then I reached into The flash of the rifle had come from Lundy's Place. Was it Dillon who had fired at me? Pistol in hand, I slid around the back of the car and dived into the shadow of the first building at that end of the street. And then into the shadow of the next and the next until I had come into the shapeless shadow of Lundy's Place. Noiselessly entering the place, I stood with my back to the wall, ex- pecting another shot. It did not come. A tomb couldn't have been quieter. I| quietly took off my shoes and padded over to the stair. Still no sign of human presence, but I was not de- ceived. My senses knew. I started softly up the stair. Halfway to the top a sprung board creaked beneath my stockinged feet. It was the board that had betrayed me to Dillon on Sunday night. Reaching the top, I stood with my hand on the newel I saw a light! A thin line of yel- low light, it lay along the floor of the gallery at the bottom of the west end of the north wall and I knew it came from under the door of Lundy’s room—the room I had fallen into. Pistol leveled, I entered the room. The door swung to behind me. The room was just as I had ex- pected. No one was there. A dirty coal oil lamp hung crook- edly from the ceiling and shed a j feeble glow upon a flat-topped desk, several chairs, a cot with a broken leg, an old-fashioned safe, the door of which was open, and a round table Does! with a deck of cards and stacks of poker chips on it. The north window was broken. Dust and sand furred everything which had escaped con- stant human contact. The wax figures faced each other feited, but at first glance they looked fairly human and not untypical of the country. I could not resist a sheepish grin at myself for being such an ass Sunday night. A large brewery catch me halfway down Pitchfork.
