Estray Law Prompts Warning To North Dakota Farmers
The Mandan Pioneer notes the late legislature enacted a strict estray law requiring takers to publish a notice in a weekly paper within ten days, file animal descriptions with the county auditor, and mail a true copy to the agriculture and labor commissioner by registered mail. Noncompliance risks damages to the owner. In Lansford a devastating fire destroyed much of the business district, including ten structures, with losses around 50,000 dollars and rapid efforts by volunteers to save homes.
