To Subscribers.

Owing to the exactions of unfeel-
ing paper dealers and the inf1exibil-
ty of the postal laws, in order to
keep this Great Family Journal 60
ing we shall hereafter be obliged to
adhere strictly to the announcement
which we fly at the head of our
columns, viz: $50 per year, IN a0-
vance" To this end, we wish to
give notice that all subscriptions
not paid by the lst of July will be
stricken from the list. Within the
next two weeks we shall present
each subscriber with the amount of
his indebtedness, to which we hope
each one will respond with prompt
ness. We need the money, are en-
titled to it and ought to have it.
No money, no paper.

Vast quantities of wheat have

Moorhead Star, June II.
The receipt of wheat at the
Mills continues to be large and is
increasing, many farmers arriving
from the town of Oscar, Otter Tail
county, seventy miles distant. The
price-$l.lo-draws like a poor
mans plaster, and the worthy
grangers are beginning 10 learn the
heretofore unknown road that leads
to MOorhead from that locality.
Besides these new customers the
rush of wheat by nearer neighbors
keeps up, and the mill grounds pre-
sent lively appearance throughout
the day.
Mr.. DALRYMPLE's Big "GARDEN."
Through the courtesy of Master
of Transportation Brown and Y ard
Master John Jennings we were en-
abled, on Tuesday, to visit the
mammoth fields of Dalrymple at
Casselton, in Dakota. 1t IS q beau
tiful sight-these magnificent fields
of waving grain, and worth a trip
to see. The farm has 1900 acres
of as fine growing grain as one
could expect to behold at this seas
on. Much farther than the eye can
reach, on the almost level prairie,
as you stand near the railroad
track, a vast sea of green wheat
greets you. The grain stands at
least twenty inches high and COM
pletely covers the ground and is of
a healthy dark green color, which
gives evidence sufficient moisture
and guarantees a full yield-prob-
ably 40, but at least 80 bushels to
the acre. We observed a dozen or
more three-horse teams at work
upon green sward. The machinery
at the station gave one ia Mt idea
Of the magnitude of operations
around, but the grand "tug OF war"
will be when the numerous reapers
are set in motion, in a few weeks,
and the threshers are called upon to
"shell OUT the golden contribution
of this rich garden,
The prairie along the road west to
Casselton is dotted with 'breaking"
teams, and the number of acres
that will have their surface reversed
this summer will be heard from by
harvest of next year. We never
saw wheat and oats look better at
this period Of the GUNNER. All cir
cumstrnces combine to warrant a
prophecy of large crop, which by
l.
able weather, we will have. And
yet Gen Hazen and DR.. Redfeld are

HOW TO HANDLE SHEEP.

A great many farmers and their help
handle sheep in wrong way, often pull
ing out handfuls ofwool, when this might
just as well be avoided as not. An old
sheepraiser says; when about to catch
a sheep move carefully toward the one
to be taken, until you are sufficiently
near to spring quickly and seize the beast
by the neck with both hands. Then pass
one hand around the body, grasp the
brisket, and raise the sheep clear from the
ground. The wool must not be pulled.
lfthe sheep is a heavy one, let one hand
and wrist be put around the neck and the
other pressed against the rump." That
is good advice. as when sheep are rough
ly handled, if the wool is pulled, the
small bruises will render them less tame,
and more difficult to handle.
