! TO BE Continued
FROM THE RED RIVER OF THE
NORTH.

Interesting Notes of a Visit to the
Hyperboreans-The Great Govern
mcnt Trains-Forts and Garrisons-
&c., SC.
We find in the Chicago Republican
the following taken from the Winopa
Republican:
Mr.. VIM. Barclay, resident of this
county, who has just returned from a
trip as far north as Georgetown, on the
Red River of the North, furnishes US
with some interesting items from the
points visited by him. Starting from
st. Cloud with one of the numerous
trains engaged in transporting Goven-
ment supplies, he visited Forts Ransom,
q Wadsworth and Abercrombie; from
the latter point continuing his journey
to Georgetown. The roads leading to
these outposts present scene OF activi-
ty and life that remind one of the cara
vans Of the East.
No less than two thousand teams are
constantly, employed in transportation
Of supplies between St. Cloud and the
above named forts, going in trains OF
from twenty i've to one hundred teams
-oxen, horses, and mules constituting
the motive power! These forts are
garrisoned BY the Tenth United States
Regular Infantry (moupted IN summer, },
the soldiers being reinforced by large
NUMBER. of:!Sioux and Wiuuebago In.
,dians, who have been: necessitated BY
want and hunger to, leaxe their reserva-
ton on the Upper Missouri ana seek
protection at the: hands of the fep,e-
sxltativssof he Great Father at ash
itetons 1in command at the respective
ferts. The number, of Indians at Fort
Abercrombie Is about two hundred, at
Fort Wadsworth from three to four
Hundred. - From Abercrombic to
Georgetown the distance is eighty miles
over . vast level plain, with nothing to
relieve the eye in winter but groups Of
leaaess trees. Georgetown possesses
all the features peculiar to an extreme
! frontier settlement. Like all Indian
Villages, the town site has no restric>
!. tions-sqpatter, sovereignty. pure and
unde6led, taking precedence Of either
full covenant warranties or quitclaims,
allows; each person to locate nearly
whercsoever he may please, and gives
to the town an air Of magnificent dis.
tances. It~contaias a population oi
about five hundred souls, composed
principally of what are termed Red
River half-breeds (being mixture Of
French and Scotch, with the Indian
bloody. They follow agricultural pur-
suits ia summer and trapping in winter,
The soil is good, and timber and water
are abundant in the vicinity. Their
success in taking furs up to the time
Mr.. Barclay left there had been exc)I
llent. And the quantity of fars that
will be taken in the northern portion Of
this State this winter will be largely in
excess Of what it has been for scveraI
years past. About thirty:6ve mile.

think 1t most interesting. If she had
been here little longer, and we had
become better acquainted, she would
have told me all about it."
IL sure" began Mr.. Braddick
hesitatingly.
"Yes, 50 am l." said his wife, com.
placently, "and I dare say the reason
sne lett SO suddenly was on account Of
Richard. What pity, because Rich.
ara 'b sure to 60 to Trenholm, he likes

Md then there would be no reason WHY
y she should not be here: That: is de-

turned Mr.: sBraddick. !: y;
"Nlow, Charles, why you m should b

drsn's good and for my comfort, I +, can
not understand; and, besides, as mere
matter Of gratitude, think what w
9*e to her !: for nursing Charley through
the fever"
Mr.. Braddick was silent for a mo
ment, ~. T.: :
"Ours best way of showing our grati,
tude is by allowing Miss Linden to pur.
sue her own course, and not to intrude
when she SO plainly shows US she wishes
to have no connection with Etheredgc
Court"
~: believe, Charles, you arc still
afraid about Richard. 1 think you and
Richard are two Of the most incompre.
hcnsible men I know. Richard has
quite deceived me; I shall never trus,
to understanding him again; and l am
beginning to think that 1 may be almost
as much misled about you"
Mr. Braddick shrugged his shoul.
ders, his conscience was not quite easy
and the inner voice said, "More so.'
But Mr.. Braddick had made no spoker
comment.
II should so like to have Miss Lin
den for a sister!'
The words, as Mrs. Braddick uttered
them. had something almost pathetic i,
them, and as her husband gazed on hi
wife this pleading for her unknown ri
val smote upon his heart. He ben
forward and kissed her. And she, un
conscious of his thoughts, returned tn
kiss, and said -
"Ah! 1 think you will yet help M
about Miss Linden.''

| find in my eXperiece IN Planting
grape vines, that strong, oue-year old
vines are altogether the best for re-
planting, for vineyards and gardens.
Ny reasons are as follows. The roots of
q one year old vIIc have but one coat
of bark, and that very smooth, tender,
and not very thick. Where the roots
have been cut, aud the vines properly
planted, they being small and tender
the vine has but short distance to push
the fbres from the heart ef tue root TO
the mother earth; then they RUN some
distance in search of food. At the same
time the vine pushes out bud from its
top and makes but little growth the
fist season. Vines or plants must have
two distinct kinds of fJod-Organic food,
to support their organic parts, and inOr-
ganic food to strengthen their morgan
ic parts. They derive their organic food
from the soil and air. Their inorganic
food is obtained from the soil alone:
and thea it gets such food that it most
needs to develOpe its organic parts Of
the body and roOts-and this it must
have before the organic parts can thrive
we'll Then the roots point out in all
directions, and have got we'll establish
ed and every succeeding year it grows
stronger and stronger and more pro-
ductive for many years and generations,
if well cared for. More on this subject

Poultry on the Farm.

Mr.. Mcchi, an eminent agrlculiur!st,
writes as follows on poultry matter:
Nothing pays better on farm than
a good stock of poultry properly man
aged. With them everything Is turned
to account; not u kernel, Wild seed, or
insect, escapes their Surutin!zinS eyes.
Their Industrious claws are ever at
work. uncovcring ready for appropria-
ton, every hidden but c"n>umabtc sab
stance. Fowls must have tree access 10
chalk or lime to form the shells Of th"lr
eggs, and grit or gravel 10 grind the
food in their gizzlrds. they luNuriate
on grass or clover, when ~" necessary
for them: in winter they like marE"it
or swedeS. They must have access 10
plenty of pure water. The quality OF
the egg depends unra the quality ~
the food. They, like ourselves, like
shade in Summer, and warm shelf red
corners in winter. They must have &C
cess To shelter in wet weather. Fowls
will not be long healthy on the same
ground or yards-thc earth gets tainted:
therefore To prevent disease, lime and
salt your yards and their usual pasture
once wear, say III autumn, when the
rains will wash it we'll in and swsetCn
the surface. Broods OF chickens never
do better with us than on the grassy
brows or patches abuttin& upon the
growing crops. either of corn or pulse,
into which they run either for insects
or for shelter. Your male birds should
be often changed, say at least once i'll
two years, aud they should be Young
and vigorous. Breeding in aEd in will
not do any more than il will with ami
mails. consider winged game, poultry
and birds, the farmers friends. My
