y • A Labor -Saving Device on each threshing machine allows the grain to run into the wagon box, from which it is later dumped into the elevator or shoveled into the granary—a saving of at least one man and the tedious task of lifting and emptying•sacks. To take advantage of this all you need it a grain tight wagon box, mounted on a gear that will stand. Lots of New Wagons will be sold this fall and we again advise our customers to act promptly. Right this minute the factories are behind on orders. We are well supplied with T. G. MANDT and NEW STOUGHTON Grain Wagons and guarantee them to be the equal to any made, both for lightness of draft and durability. SEE THESE BEFORE YOU BUY. HARNEY & ADAMS HARDWARE CO. GEYSER, MONT.

E. Johanson and Family—Contents Partly Saved The dwelling house of Rev. E. Jo- hanson, the Finnish minister, who lives about five miles north of toss n, caught lire and burned to the ground Wednesday. The cause of the fire is not known. The family were wash- ing clothes at the creek some distance front the house and Mrs. Johanson, who had left the two smallest children, aged about 2 and 4, at the house, re- turned for a few momsnts and smell- ing smoke discovered the lire had quite a start in the front room. It had evi- dently started in the lace curtains. A neighbor living about half a mile away also saw the flames coining from the roof about the saute time and shouted to Johanson. who was at the creek, that his house was burning. Having no water handy with which to extin- guish' the flames. they were unable to do any thing to save the building. Some clothing and household goods were saved, but not a great deal. The house was a neat four -room cottage and its loss will be a sad blow to the family, as they are homesteaders and having a hard time to make ends meet. They have eight children, most of whom are too young to work. Ret. Johanson will erect some sort of a temporary dwelling to serve until he can rebuild the house. Jos. I.

GEYSER—SPION KOP Heavy Hitting Wins the Game (Continued from page 1) Many disputes occurred over the decisions rendered by umpire \Slim'' Lewis, but on the whole one side was treated no worse than the other. The loss of first baseman Higgins. who left for Nlinneapolis last Friday. and the substitution of several new players who have not heretofore taken part in any games this season was a serious handicap to the Geyser team, while Raynsford was reinforced with a number of players from the Ram - biers of Spion Kop. Another game on the Geyser grounds is looked for soon, when it is hoped that more satisfactory conditions may prevail.
