RECEIVE REPORTS County Treasurer Yager Has $77 Coming to Him for 1911. SAY ACCOUNTANTS Auditor Michaud Came Out to the Cent—Valuation of County Property. The mail carrier Ihis morning delivered tw.» voluminous looking packages at the court house, one at the treasurer’s office and thp other at the auditor’s. I’nfolded they developed to be (lie reports of (lie field accountants of file auditor's and treasurer's office for tne yeat ending Decembei 31, 1911. The reports are complete, showing every transaction, and as near as we could figure them out. show that Treasurer Charles W. Yager has a balance coming his way o! $77.45, while Auditor Michaud eamc out exactly even, every cent . being properly accounted for. The examinations were made by Erasmus T. Carson and Charts E. Weybrlght and show disbursements in tlte auditor’s office of $158,907.58 while In the traesurer’s office the receipts and disbursements were $534, 317-12, those figures tallying exactly with the records of the auditor’s looks. When the examination was made for the year 1910 Mr, Yager was declared to he short $49.99, and he paid that amount in. letter the state hoard declared that lu> should not have paid It. and that instead his books were exactly right. The $77.43 now coming to him includes that amount. Tlte reports for both Mr. Yager and Mr- Michaud are high class, in fact they could not be better and these men are to be congratulated for the splendid record. On one page of the report on Ihe auditor is shown the valuation of the county property and it is of interest. The total is *186,120, including the court house at $75,000, court house grounds at $15,000, jail at $25,-

000, jail grounds at $2,000, old fait grounds containing twenty acres at $3,500, county farm buildings at $35,000, and the land at $21,600.

. 11 .L.. m rr, ; North Dakota —-e (CONTTtttTED FROM PAGE ONE) p until this line settler had attracted others, and hereabouts had become a community of pioneer homes bound together by a common interest. This period would have its climax in the > ears to come. The succeeding period was one of confidence based on pre- * vious success. At the present nearly every land owner is in possesion of one or more sections of land. The raising ; of wheat w-as a success. The ordinary equipment for one section of land requires twelve head of work horses, and farm machinery for planting and harvesting wheat, hay, oats, flax, potatoes, corn and barley. Shelter must he provided for machinery and stabling for every ' species of live stock kept on the farm ‘ during winter months and the stork 1 must he fed. Good stabling, bams, I granaries and outhouses are a special j feature on the landscape in North . Dakota, It would he Incomplete in 1 describing the broad, level landscape if we omitted the planted groves that 1 ’ lie along the horizon, and are so numerous as to obstruct the vision, and ’ appears in the distance to form a continuous line of timber and to give to one the impression, of approaching a forest. The primary object seenfs 1 ’ to have been to provide a forest windbrake. They are oiten one mile In length gnd vary In width from on l . Hundred feet to threw hundred feet ( Ash. maple, cottonwood and other ] varieties of trees grow rapidly and these forests are now fifty and sixty feet high and serve well tiie purpose for which they were planted. Another feature is the landscape In the a'most continuous and interminable j area of growing crops of wheat, oats, rye. barley, potatoes, liny, flax and corn, which. In the July months are a robe of green, pleasing lo the eye, and a promise of wealth to the owner of the sail. We should not omit a brief description of what may lie found at any desired spot at a depth of six hundred feet from the surface. Artesian water, clear and cold, issuing at the rate of V»n gallons per minute from 1 three-quarter Inch pipe, maintain'd by a static pressure of twenty-five pounds to the square inch, may Ire had on every section of land from Fargo westward for a distance of flf- • ty miles. The temperature of the water is 55 Jagrees Fahrenheit. iu some instances the water is soft as rainwa- 1 ter. while in other instances it requires treatment Tor washing posesWith a quarter-inch nozzle one can throw a verty-nl stream ot water forty feet. Will some one suggest from whence comes so great a pressure •,nd why the water Is so cold. Thirty years of ardent toil and sacrifice has transposed conditions and 1 rewarded the persistent efforts of a veneration of stout-hearted men and women. Railroads have long ago stretched out their long arms to assist in bringing this once remot° ' country' into close touch with vast trade renters. The advantages have been mutual. Good roads nro as 1 common here as in Indiana and auto ' mobiles are as often seen speeding from town to town. 1 Rural mall routes reach every home and daily papers are read by an intelligent people. It is seldom that a land-owner has leas than a ( half section of land. When congress donated every alternate section in a xone twenty miles wide through I North Dakota from east to west t rail- ( roads to aid In the construction of the , North Pacific) It would seem that I men liecame ambitious to possess an , entire section for .farming purposes. Many land owners have one or , more sections and the opportunity for a good farmer to lease u section , of land on liberal terms is thus atlorded to those who are hot able to owu the land. , WINNING PRIZES $ • - (CONTINUED FROM PAOE ONE) 1 grade and crossbred steers, dupllcat- , rd the Van.Natta winnings, taking first on two-year-olds on Barry, first In the yearlings on Echo and first In the valves on Dan.
