In many years.
The Indian curiosities attract the attention Of every
passer BY. Among other things,s pipestem. knife
scabbard and tobacco-peuch, exhibited BY Capt
Todd, Of the o. g. A. evidences Of great ingenuity
and no small taste in the arrangement Of coors and
materials The knifescabbard IL worked with porou-
pine quilts, biantly colored, and resembles the finest
embroidery. A coat frnged with the long scalphair
from the heads Of nine murdered Indians, hores the
tenderhesrted and gratifes the curious.
While making a note OF these productions Of Min
nesota it may be well to notice those Of less snowy
character, and which occupy less prominent place
among the agricultural productions. The corn, wheat
rye oats and barley OF Minnesota compare favoraby
with any exhibited and although specimens are few
yet they prove to demonstration the falacy of the
notion which seems to have possessed to some ex-
tent the public mind follows 1t is too cold for
corn, says the farmer he looks at the parallels Of
latitude; cant raise or wheat up there" Here
is tangible proof, however, that these grains have
grown and can grow and ripen, in the highest per-
lection, in Minnesota We see, Also new article of
food among the grains, viz, manomin, wild rice,
which Is said to furnish subsistence to thousands of
Indians, as early as any other Of the grain of this
Cline Let some Of our cooks try their hands at it;
samples will be furnished by the commissioner, Mr..
lie Dnc.
We are glad to see the products and curiosties of
the country SO well represented and hope they may
draw that attention to this fertile region which its
agricultural and mineral importance demands.
