Lined AUTO HOTOUN plentiful "Dope" on shooting

shooters know where the right dope comes from—and that it leads straight to Remington-UMC."

THE Remington-UMC Pump Gun and Autoloading Gun — these are shotguns of today. Adopted everywhere, for use in the field and over

traps—shot by more of the men who are setting the pace in the sport than any other make of guns in the world.

In the matter of Shells—where is the sportsman who does not know the Remington-UMC "Speed Shells," Steel Lined— all the drive of the powder kept back of the shot, and showing results that flatter any make of gun?

For the right dope—see the Remington-UMC Dealer. He displays the Red Ball Mark of Remington-UMC—the sign that his store is Sportsmen's Headquarters of the town.

The guests as­sembled at the McCannel home and then proceeded to the Byorum resi­dence, where a beautiful four course luncheon was served by the hostesses, assisted by Mrs. Weinrebe and Mrs. Ringo. The rooms were most beauti­fully and artistically decorated with sweet peas, the candles which adorned the tables and the flowers used in the decorations being pink. Some thirty guests were present and innumerable dainty and useful gifts were presented to Miss Stoudt.

H. C. Hanson and wife, living at Brush lake, twenty miles ast of An­telope were both drowned last Satur­day in Brush lake. Mr. Hanson, who owns a summer resort at the lake, had broken the gas engine of his launch while out in the middle of the lake and had signalled his wife to row out to his relief. As he stepped into the row boat from the launch the boat upset and they were drowned in 70 feet of water, within sight of their little children on the shore, who were too small to lend any aid. The Han-sens formerly resided at Racine, Wis., where one of their little children had a foot cut off by a train last year.

Twenty carloads of cannon designed for the Russian army passed thru the city Wednesday over the Soo Line.

MOST PERFECT OF PLANTS

Working of the Human Body Makes Any Invention of Man 8eem Like

Plaything.

The most complicated manufactur­ing plant that ever existed is the hu­man body as controlled under the sci­entific management of the brain and nervous system. No factory ever boast­ed a more efficient producer plant for converting fuel into energy. No plant ever had so well-designed a pumping system, nor one so perfect for the disposal of waste and sewage. Talk of up-to-date heating and ventilating, or interdepartment telephone! The best that our modern science can put into our shops iff crude Indeed as com­pared with that furnished by the Great Designer. Suppose that you went to a pump manufacturer with the following specification:

Wanted, a pump with capacity of one^iuarter gallon a minute, to handle warm sal£y fluid, to work for seventy years night and day without a shut­down, at the rate of seventy strokes per minute. Must be guaranteed to operate for the full period of time without repairs or adjustments, to re­quire no attention; must have auto­matic control and contain its own mo­tive power, and must have a duty pel million foot-pounds superior to the best triple-expansion high-duty unit ever made.

Do you think the manufacturer would bid for the job? If he were a timid man he vtould probably agree with you and tell you to come around next week, meanwhile edging you toward the door before your insanity took a violent form. Or if he were pot afraid of lunatics he would say: "You poor bug, such a pump as you speak of never existed nor ever will except in the brain of a perpetual-mo­tion freak such as 1 see before me!" Which shows how much he knows about it, for both you and he carry just such a pump around with you, and each of you thinks too much of your possession to sell it for any money.—John H. Van Deventer, in the Engineering Magazine.

N0R1H DAKOTA'S POMOH Ml The Bismarck Tribune made a grave

error in reporting the population of the various cities of the state. The Tribune gives Minot a population of 8,537, while the figures turned in by Assessor Wheeler were 10,112. These are the figures that Auditor Thompson

j sent to the state auditor. The Trib une most likely just made an error, but in that even should make the cor­rection.

Poor old Devils Lake shows a fall­ing of off of 632, her population being given at 4,525. It is said that the census taker counted the soldiers _ in camp five years ago, which explains | the falling off.

The state's population is 631,291, a gain of 54,235 in five years.

Following are the figures for the leading ten cities:

Cow Proved Good Detective. Stuart Hoit and George Hart of

i Muddy Valley, near Williston. were arrested charged with cattle stealing. Hart later confessed and told how they had stolen the calves. Hart was pa­roled and will work for a near-hy far­mer. If he lives up to the regulations of his parole, the money will be turned over to his family at the end of two years. The two men drove the cows into an old barn and the calves follow-

'ed. They turned the cows out and butchered the calves. One of the cows was seen returning to the barn and she was followed. This led to the arrest of the men.

KING CREDITED WITH VIOLIN

Monarch Who Ruled in Ceylon Be­lieved to Have Invented Famous

Musical Instrument.

Havana, king of Ceylon, is believed to have invented the violin, 5000 B. C. The instrument was called the ravan-as iron. A similar Instrument was in­troduced into Great Britain by the Anglo-8axon8 under the name of fythel, from which the modern word "fiddle" is derived. The violin in its present form was first made in the fifteenth or sixteenth century. The earliest violin maker was Gaspard di Salo of Lom-bardy, Italy. It is thought that the Italian school of violin making was founded by him at Brescia. Violins were the principal bowed instruments from the end of the fifteenth to the end of the seventeenth centuries, but they were gradually replaced by vio­lins of Brescian make. The school of Cremona so perfected the art of violin making that the Cremona violin be­came the most famous of all musical instruments. Modern makers have never been able to improve on the Cremona violins. Andrea Amati found­ed the Cremona school. The greatest of all violin makers was Antonio Stra­divari. His best work was done from 1700 to 1720. This is known as his "golden period."

928 Automobiles In Ward County. Up to July 1, 23,175 automobiles

and 1438 motorcycles were registered , with the secretary of state. There are over 6,000 more automobiles in North Dakota for 1915 than there were reg­istered during 1914. The fees re­ceived for autos amount to $69,525, and for motorcycles, $4314. Ward county has 928 autos and 68 motor­cycles registered.

It is said that in a recent decision of the Supreme Court of Mississippi the following language was used: "Whis­key is a good thing in its place. There is nothing like it for preserving a man when he is dead. If you want to keep a man dead put him in whiskey; if you want to kill a live man put whiskey in him."

Cement Prom Beets. It is now reported that a French

firm is making an excellent cement from a by-product in the process of making beet sugar. The scum that forms when the beets are boiled, and which has heretofore been thrown away, consists largely of carbonate of lime and water, and from 70,000 tons of beet treated 4,000 tons of carbonate of lime are obtained; to this 1,100 tons of clay are added, the resulting pro­duct being 3,162 tons of excellent ce­ment

The scum is pumped into large tanks, where it is allowed to dry par­tially; finely-divided clay is then mixed with it; the mixture is thorough­ly amalgamated by beaters for an hour and burned in a rotary kiln, much in the same way as Portland cement. The clinker is then removed and pul­verized into cement.

STUNG IN A NEW PLACE. Exchange: A man and a woman

dropped into a nearby town and put up at the best hotel. The next morn­ing they secured a rig each and start­ed over the country, asking the farm­er folks for a chicken for an orphan's home in St. Louis. After two days' begging they sold the chickens to a local produce man for $30 and left town. Their loot included several cash donations.

A variation of the scheme is for a man, wearing some sort of a badge, to call on the farmers under the name of the department of health, and de­mand to see his poultry. After exam­ination he condemns twenty or thirty hens and tells the farmer they will have to be killed because they are di­seased. He very kindly offers to take the chickens and do the killing him­self. If the farmer consents, the man takes the chickens to the nearest com­mission merchant and sells them. The scheme is being worked all over the country. If a man or woman calls on you with a demand that looks suspic­ious, call on your local authorities and ask by what right they are asking to inspect your stock of poultry. When you get the answer, turn them over to the police.

GARRISON WILL HOLD CORN SHOW SEPT. 30 TO OCT. 3.

The great success of the Garrison Corn Show last year makes it possible at this time to announce the third an­nual Corn Show and Alfalfa Circus, which will De held at Garrison Sep­tember 30 to Oct. 2 this year. Never before in the history of fairs was so much interest manifested as there was in the Garrison Corn Show of last year and again this year everyone is planning on a better show. While the corn crop is very much in question at this time, there will be com in the Garrison territory if there is any­where else in the state.

Aside from corn the alfalfa end of the show will be a strong feature. Nearly $2,000 in cash and merchan­dise will be given as prizes. There will be entertainments, ball games, tennis tournaments, gun shoots, and in fact, everything in the latest thrills to amuse people every hour they are at the circus.

The enormous Corn Show building is being remodelled with a solid con­crete floor and new booths are being added. This building was completely filled last year and already space is taken to more than fill it again this year. The overflow will be housed this year in large tents provided for that purpose.

Make arrangements now to attend North Dakota's greatest and best Corn Show, Garrison, September 30-October 2.

A sample of sweet clover grown on the Slocum farm is nine and a half feet tall and the crop is still growing.

Cottage Cheese. A young lady student of the Colo- 1

rado Agricultural college says: "My home Is on a small farm two miles from town. I have found a practical way of increasing my none too plenti­ful Income. We keep several cows and so have large quantities of sour milk which we formerly fed to the pigs. Now with very little effort and ! time I make this sour milk up Into | cottage cheese and sell it in town. It is made in pound cakes which sell at ten cents a brick. Customers were hard to obtain at first, but as soon as peiple learned about my cheese, 1 had all the customers I could supply. I make the cheese twice a week and deliver It the day it is made. In this way the cheese is fresh when it gets to the customer."
