DISTANCE APART FOR rREEs

: DISTANCE APART FOR TREES.
We see by the St. Paul Press that
there is still an impression that in order
to secure the State bounty trees must
be planted in rows not more than eight
feet apart each way. The two laws, as
we have frequently stated, providing
for bounty on tree culture, say nothing
about the distance at which trees must
be planted apart in groves, but both
laws provide that in planting row of
trees along the highway they shall be
planted not more than one rod apart.
Persons, therefore, who comply with
the Act of Congress in planting trees
on a tree claim, placing the trees twelve
feet apart each way, will secure the
State bounty.
PLANTING SOFT MAPLE SEED.
Soft maple seed have already begun
to arrive and next week will be the time
to plant them. L. NJ. Ford, agricul-
tnral editor of the St. Paul Press, says
Of the planting:
Seeds Of the soft and scarlet maple are
now about one-half grown, and will
mature in two weeks. They must be
planted before getting dry, or as soon
as they fall: In this vicinity they can
be gathered for about two dollars per
bushel. We hire boys to do the work
and there is Il prospect for a good crop.
We hope not few in our State will
plant maple seeds this season. A BUSH
Ell they say produces about 10000 trees.
G0PHERs.
A writer in the Sioux Falls I,depend-
ent says that lone little girl caught
gophers in few hours, and she did not
have to go for to do it either" He says
further:
A plan that works we'll with these
pests is to take pumpkin or squash
seeds, and splitting them ut the pointed
end insert little strichnine, half the
size of a pin head, then pinch the seed
together and place where it will do the
most good" A person can prepare 200
seeds in an evening. They should all
be marked P, lest some careless boy
should eat one.
John Youngstrom was telling us the
history Of his springs work the other
day, and we believe it is worth putting
into print. With one span Of horses
and a harrow, he, with the assistance
Of his father-inlaw. put in $50 acres Of
grain. 1t was all sown by hand. Thir-
ty-two acres of this was plowed and the
grain put in, in seven days. Remem-
Der, only one team and two men to do
the business, and nary seeder. That
is what we call doing a good deal of
business IN short time, with limited
help. Somebody beat it.-Litchdtld

GOOD NEWS TO SETTL ERS.

Mr.. Dunnell, on Monday last, intro
duced into the House bill which was
promptly passed, under suspension of
the rules, to allow settlers in South
western Minnesota and Northwestern
Iowa, in those counties visited by the
grasshopper, to leave ,heir claims for
one year without forfeiting their rights
to the land. The limit fixed by the bill
is the first of July, 1875. We have no
doubt that the bill will pass the Senate.
This measure will bring relief to many
settlers who cannot well get through
another year. They have been holding
to their claims knowing that the pres
ent difficulties will soon be over, and
that when they are over and their farms
are once subdued, they will have homes
upon as rich soil, in as fine climate
and in as beautiful country as God
has made. This will enable them to
leave their claims and find employment
elsewhere feeling secure of the improve.
ments they have made and of the home
steads upon which they have risked SO
much.
We have before spoken of Mr.. Dun
nell's promptness and efficiency in Sc.
curing practical legislation for that
part Of the West which he represents,
The Window Reporter pays him the
following just tribute:
Whatever may be said of Mr.. Dun.
nell about the salary grab, he has been
= most untiring and jealous member
for this, the frontier portion of the
state, and through his labors our pe,,.
pie have been benefited to a great de.
gree. This bill will undoubtedly PASS
the Senate at an early day. And to Mr..
Dunnell the thanks Of the entire from.
tier are due. His promptness in re-.
spending to the call of the convention
held i'll Window, last week, is trul,
commendable, and is only an example
OF what has characterized his labors
since he became member of the House
lie has never heard call from the
frontier without response, and his
work is a monument of credit to The
State"

THESOC-7,HER.N MINNESOTA

THE so C7iHEKN MINNESOTA.
The Jackson Republic says that du-
ring last week an official of the South
ern Minnesota road was in that town
transacting some business with the
County Treasurer and that while there
he told 4 citizen that the road would
be built to Fairmont and Jackson. We
are not inclined to take any stock in
any rumors concerning the early ex-
tension Of the Southern Minnesota, es-
pecially since the panic and anti-rail-
road movement have given such a
decided check to railroad building.
We think it quite probable, however,
that when the Southern Minnesota is
extended, it will be on the line of the
cOnnty-seats of the southern tier Of
counties, taking in Jackson and Worth
ington.

TON BILL.
The substitute reported by Senator
Window, from the transportation CON-
mittee, for the House bill to regulate
commerce among the several States,
provides that every line of railroad ex-
tending into or through two or more
States, and employed in carrying
freights between points in different
States, or to or from any foreign coun-
try, whether owned or operated by one
or by several corporations or persons,
shall keep posted in each Of it's stations
and depots, full classifications of freight
and its charges per mile for every dis
tance for which it receives freight for
transportation, and rates so established
and posted shall he the lawful rates it
shall charge in any case, except for
government transportation and for
charitable purposes, SO long as said
schedule remains unchanged. Thirty
days notice must be given of any ill.,
tended change of schedule rates.
The bill prohibits all Determinations
OF charges for like service performed
for different shippers or any discrimi-
nations in the delivery Of freight ex-
cept according to priority of shipment !;
it is also provided that any railroad
company receiving freight for trans
portation over other reads in addition
to its own line shall be responsible to
the shipper for the safe delivery of
freight to its destination. Each vi
"lation OF any of the foregoing provis-
ions is to be punished by a fine Of not
less than $500 or more than $4,000.
