his name attached to this work will

MINNESOTA FOR WHEAT.
From the Boston Daily Advertiser.

From the Boston Daily Advertiser.
The middle and Western States have
been the wheat-producing sections Of
the continent, but the area OF wheat
cultivation IS rapidly changing to the
Northwest. Minnesota had but seven.
teen hundred acres of land under cul-
tivation in 1850, and lid not raise
wheat enough for the wants of the
State till 1859, but so rapid las been
the development that the product in
1869 was nineteen million bushels, and
now that the richest wheat-growiug
section of the continent-the Red Riv.
or ValIey-has been reached by tho
Northern Pacific, and On area as large
as the States Of New Hampshire and
Vermont together, every acre Of which
may be turnsd by the plough, is open
to settlement, We may expect to re.
ceive our bread henceforth almost wholly
from that region OF the country. II Is
quite probable that the product of Mi,,-
mesota foe gears hence soiW be large
enough to supply New England.

TAKE An APPLE.

Jay Whipple, Of the Wincns Herald,
is responsible for the following story {:
"Fifteen years ago when Minnesota voted
the State Railroad bonds, Mr.. John Hart,
living in Rollingstone Valley, after the
election was ov er, was invited by friend
to take q glass of lager beer, but instead
of taking drink he took two apples.
One he gave to his wife, and the other he
ate himself, Both he and she saved the
seeds Of those two apples which
they planted, and from which sprung
eight apple trees. Five Of them
lived, have prospered, and grown 10 DO
hardy, vigorous bearing trees. Laterly,
each tree bears from ten to fifteen bushels
Of apples yearly. At the Fair in Mime.
spolis last fall, hs secured two premiums
Of $50 each, upon the apples taken from
these trees. Since they commenced bear
ing he has gathered from those trees near
ly one thousand dollars worth Of apples,
which has all originated from the simple
fact that he took apples instead Of beer"

THE TREATY.

A special dispatch from Geneva to
the London papers on Tuesday states
that the tribunal of arbitrators will
meet again at II O'Clock on Thursday
morning. The American representa-
tives before the Board in consequence
Of the confusion Of cipher dispatches
Inexperienced the intention Of Presi-
dent Grant and Secretary Fish who did
not definitely withdraw tho claims for
indirect damages. A majority of the
board Of arbitrators are opposed to a
longer adjournment Of the tribunal than
fortnight. The Eoglish representa-.
tives will leave Geneva Friday and it is
therefore supposed that an important
decision will be given by the board Of
arbitrators on Thursday.
Tho London Daily NeUs says that
America agrees to BE- nousuited in the
case before the board of arbitrators so
far as indirect claims are concerned.
A summary Of tho present position
ia: The United States withdraws
nothing Of its claims: both parties are
fairly before the tribunal. England,
however, persists in her demand tor
long adjournment.
Tho Geneva correspondence, under
date Of June 9th, says the impression
there is that tho British government
has asoertaiued that judgment will be
given by the court OF arbitration in
favor of the Uni It'd States. on all the
various counts

ST. CLOUD CEMETERY.

EDITOR JouRNA1.-I would like to make
some inquiries, through tho columns Of
your paper, into the condition Of the st.
Cloud Cemetery.
Are the parties who have it in charge
an incorporate body and is there . plat
Of the grounds filed in the Office Of the
Register of Deeds ?-in other words, is 3
deed given by the Company or their trus-
tees, valid
Do the company purpose making any
improvements upon the grounds, or is
it TO remain in its present condition
The grounds and the location Of the
cemetery are certainly very fine. There
is wild, natural beauty about the grounds
that it would be difficult to find nywhere
else in the vicinity of St. Cloud.
understanding the location Ct the
cemetery, and the beauty of its grounds, it
is no better than any other spot as q bur-
ial place for the dead, for it has no pro-
lection, whatever, against horses, cattle
and hogs, not even fence, and the avenues
and drives remain % nature left them.
There has, already, been money enough
expended in fencing private lots to build y
substantial fence around the cemetery
These fences would be entirely useless if
the whole were fenced. nor would they be
permitted in our best cemeteries.
Individuals, in town, have already sites
on their own grounds, for family burials,
and fitted them up extensively, for the
simple reason that no protection is afford
cd in the cemetery.
These private burying grounds are un.
desirable, for they are nearly always de-
spoiled in single generation. In small
township, in an eastern State, in sixty
five years from its first settlement, twenty
four out Of twenty EIGHT burying grounds
| had their fences and monuments destroy cd
and were cultivated like the surrounding
fields. Nearly all Of them were family
buying grounds.
There ore large quantities of leaves,
brush, dead limbs and trees that should ke
removed from the st. Cloud cemetery. II
was miracle that the the fires which did
80 much damage through the State last
summer did rot sweep through the grounds
and destroy not only this dead rubbish
but the fences.
The present condition Of things should
not be suffered to remain any longer. A
good, substantial fence should be built thi,
summer, and tho main avenues should b,
graled. If little were done each year
We should have, in short time, a GENE
terry that would be an honor to our city
do not know the condition of the treas
ury, but believe there are funds enough OF
hand to justify this expenditure. Many
citizens who have not, as yet, purchase,
lots, wsvld do SO, il they were assured tia
the grounds would be fitted up.
