To the Beyond Within Twenty
Four Hours of Each Other
Peter Mueller, ag;e 75, and a
resident of Buckman for the last
3o years, was found dead in his
bedroom last Monday morning*.
Cause of death is thought to have
been apoplexy. Mr.Mueller was
born in Germany and served in
the Franco-German war in 1870-
1871. He leaves a wife, five
sons and four daughters.
Purial took place in St. Mich
ael's cemeter}* in Buckman,

suddenly at his home in Buck-
man, Tuesday morning at five
o'clock. He had been to the
wake of his friend and neighbor,
Peter Mueller, and went home
and to bed about eleven o'clock
Monday evening*, apparently in
his usual health. About five
o'clock his wife heard him
breathing heavily and got up to
light a lamp. When she reached
his side, he had passed away.
Mr. Weisbrich was born in
Germany and came to Buckman
about 26 years ago.
He leaves six sons and three
daughters, funeral was held

Big Money in Raising Peas
Bpzeman Mont., Oct, 9.—
This city will soon have- a
pea-canning* factor)'. About
1,500 acres of canning peas
were raised in the valley this
summer as an experiment.
Reports from most of tlie
experimenters are favorable.
G. C. Miles, in charge of the
Nash ranch, reported from
thirty-five acres of peas on
that ranch the profits were
SI,785. Other farmers had
equal success.
Little Falls, Oct. 10—This
morning Judge M. D. Taylor
passed sentence upon S. S. Durham convicted of manslaughter
in the second degree for killing
his brother inlaw, F. R. Gourd.
The man was sentenced to the
state prison for an indeterminate term. Duhram is a man
nearly 70 years of age and has
during the few days he has remained in the county jail since
his conviction, showed the results of confinement. It is believed by his friends he will be
unable to serve a year in the
Stillwater prison.
TRAFFIC HEAVY
Both   passenger  and   freight
traffic on the Soo line is very
heavy these days. Besides the
regular trains on the schedule,
from three to six extras pass by
every night — but not close
enough to the village to disturb
our slumbers.

Mr and Mrs. JNick Lochner
and Francisca Block, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Barney
Block of Pier/, were married
in St. Joseph's Church Tuesday morning. Tne wedding
was celebrated at tha home of
the bride's parents.
FALL PLOWING
Fa'l plowing is to be preferred to spring plowing.
This applies al-o to land for
com thit is to be manured
daring t':e winter and spring-.
A reasonable dressing* of
coarse manure may be disked
io without difficulty, and is in
better position to aid the crop
than when plowed under.
DON'T BURN THE STRAW
Don't burn the straw pile.*.
If the straw cannot be used
for food or bedding*, scatter
several feet deep in the yards,
where it will rot and be converted into manure. If you
nave more straw than you have
use for, it is evidence that
your farm is under-stocked
with live stock; hence in need
of all available manure.
If you pr-.t left this time, blame
yourself, not  us lor the bargains
you is iased, ask your neighbor.

WINTER WHEAT IN NORTH DAKOTA
Devils Lake, N. D., Oct. 7
Three thousand acres of winter wheat will be raised in
Ramsey county next season,
where two years ago not one
hundred acres were planted,
according to C. H. Baker, who
as a result of his part in starting* tins crop in the "Lake region," can rightfully called
the "father" of winter wheat.
Every bushel of the f911
crop, which has just been
threshed out, has found a
ready market in this section
for seed and several thousand
bushels have been imported
and planted, as a result of the
signal success of this season's
crop.
' Plant it in stubble, where
the snow will drift, and you
have the safest crop in the
world," declares Mr. Baker.
'This has been the experience
in South Dakota and Minnesota <ind it was my experience
when I started with winter
wheat here four years ago.
Where the grain was sown on
summer fallow or fall plowing
the crop was a failure. Where
it was planted in barley or
corn,-it lias proven an unqualified success,"
Mr. Baker favors corn fields
to plant winter v. heat. When
first tried two rows were cut
out and one left standi ig. Doing business on a bigger scale
this season, ei^ht were cut out
and four left standing, to be
rolled in the spring. While
spring wheat yielded from
e ghtto ten and twelve bushels this fall, winter wheat
yielded twenty and better.
There appears a^ipeculiar
thing ai$>out tlrisw crop, as far
as ii has- been tested here. It
is timed just right to be benefited by the spring rains, and
invafia'bjy Us developed far
enough to escape any possible
harm from any ihot or dry
weather o§ .mid'summer. Mr.
Bakenadvocates, on the ordinary sized farm, to plant half
to winter wheat, the other half
to barlev, oats, grass and
small grain. Alternate this
the next year, plowing the
ground every second year.
In the opinion o; those who
have made a deep study of the
conditions, winter wheat is a
coming crop for NorthDakota.
HOGGING OFF CORN
Many good careful farmers
find it practical to hop off some
of their corn. It will pay you
to lo >k into this question, if
vou have not already done so.
MARTIN BEARS NO ILL
WILL
Transcript: A Transcript
representative visited the men
confined in the county jail
Thursday noon at the request
of Theodore Martin, who
wished to make a statement
regarding* his recent trial.The
man who has been given a life
sentence for a murder of his
wife gave out the following:
"I wish to state through the
columns of the Transcript
that I have no ill feeling
against Judge Taylor for any
of the rulings he made in my
recent trial and I also bear
no i 1 will towards County
Attorney Cameron. I believe
that he did what he thought
to be his duty as a county
official. I want to thank the
sheriff for the treatment
I received, since in custody
and this also applies to all the
members of his family. The
officers have been very kind
to me.    —Theodore Martin."
Charles Vanase, who will be
taken to Stillwater to serve a
sentence for arson, was also
of the same opinion as Martin
in so as the above statement
applies lo the sheriff and family, but he is of the opinion
that he was railroaded to the
pen and blames the county
attorney for his predicament.
He savs that the prosecuting
witness and the prosecuting
attorney are. to blame for the
verdict and that it was not
clearly proven at the trial that
he fad committed a crime.
The jury, however, evidently
thought different.
FATTENING POULTRY
Try finishing some of your
poultry this fall before marketing. If it pays to convert
corn into 6-cent pork, it may
pay better to convert some of
it into 12-cent poultry.
Henry Walerius 6f St. Leo,
Yellow Medicine Co., Minn,
arrived with his family and
household goods last Monday.
Mr. Walerius will live on the
old Stangl farm, which he
bought last spring.

Gives Aid To Strikers
Sometimes liver, kidneys
and bowels seem to go on a
strike and refuse to work
right. Then you need those
pleasant little strike-breakers
— Dr. King's New Life Pills
—to give them natural aid and
gently compel proper action.
ICxcellent health soon follows.

There is more Catarrh in this
section of the country than all
other diseases put together,
and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease and
prescribedlocal remedies,and by
constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. "Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires
Constitutional treatment.Hall's
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O-
hio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. It acts
