-Chas Lord showed us the other
day neat little poster printed in
green letters and in the French
language, announcing that his
youngest brother, Ell. |. Lord, Esq,
would address the citizens of Bid
deford, Maine, on the principles Of
the new Greenback Party. The
bill closes with this stirring appeal:
"Venez, Compatriotesl Eutendre
rexpose de Ia politique, venez en-
masse." Charley's brother must be
quite man in his part Of the coun-
try.
| Marquette Journal: About as
fine sample of winter wheat as
can be found anywhere was shown
us the other day by Mr. W. L. Sor-
ter, OF this place. 1t was raised
down the road at aplace called Per-
kins, by Herman Winde, one of the
farmers of that locality. 1t is claim
ed that 40 bushels to the acre can be
raised in good season. He intends
to sow FIVE acres ito it this fall
What better thing could a man
want than farm on the peninsula
sowsd to winter wheat, if such
crops can be raised?
On the St. Paul Fair ground
last week quite an interest was CEN
tered in the manufacture of sugar
from the Early Amber Sugar Cane.
The sugar was made there right be-
fore your eyes by a process that
! could be understood by all. They
make brown, loaf and granulated
sugar that compares with the best
made from Louisiana cane. The
Amber cane will grow wherever
corn will, and it would not be sur
prising if sugar raising would yet
become one of the leading industries
of this northwestern country. There
is nothing new under the sun.
!, Fargo Times: James Holes on
Thursday lasts brought into town
for Headquarters Hotel wagon load
of as fine early rose potatoes as we
ever saw. He reports the yield of
one patch of 81 acres at SIS bushels
and he has another patch which
will yield 800 bushels per acre.
His threshing is completed and
foots up 3O65 bushels of wheat from
1I6 acres, of which FIVE acres were
SO badly lodged as to be almost
worthless. His barley yield is a
trifle over 500 bushels from 81 acres
being an average of about 3l4 bush
els per acre.
On the second day of Septem-
Der the people of Taylor county will
vote on the proposition of the presi.
dent and secretary Of the Chippe-
wa Falls & Northeastern railway,
which in substance is as follows:
The company agree to build rail
road from Chippewa Falls to Med
, ford, said road to be the same
gauge as the Wisconsin Central
and to be completed within year.
> In consideration of which the com
!. pany ask that Taylor county give
4 them $4,000 in bonds in exchange
t for 100000 in stock. The exchange
to be made when the road is built
and in running order.-Chippeoa

The large number of Duluth
and Superior sufferers by the great
fairs certainly deserve the sympathy
of benevolent people everywhere.
Nobody has yet suggested that the
eastern cities be called npon to
raise subscriptions for their relief,
but there is no doubt but that if a
proper appeal was made it would
be responded to literally. Sympa-
; thetic people would open their
hearts as they did to the people of
Chicago after the fire, and each
sufferer would soon be the happy
roo;,;ant &C 1e ,,;r, xa4 o.
