Letter from o. p. Chaapltn.

A few jottings from this way may
perhaps be of interest to your read.
ers. .--s- ..e H..
This county has had diversified
experience. Since it was organized
there have been times when it has
had to- be aided by the State. The
earlier settlers were mostly without
means; and began to open their farms
with wheat culture which involved
in machinery Obligations to IN extent
beyond their ability. When the
grasshoppers came, seven years ago.
many were found to leave their farms
never to return. But before then,
times were hard, and the few settlers
suffered. The raising of wheat is
a failure: 1t is not a profitable crop
for this county; and the farmers are
now satisfied of it. Within a few
years attention has been given more
and more to other things, The coun-
ty is good for stock and there is mon.
ey in it. About the time of the To-
Gust invasion the English began to
settle in here and now there are a
good many of them. They have scat.
tered a good deal of money which
has been very helpful to the people.
Some have sunk their fortunes and
have left the country; but others have
bought and are improving farms and
doing a great deal to make this q
wealthy county. The first of these
settlers went into bean culture quite
extensively; and would perhaps have
succeeded in it had it not been for
the plague before. mentioned. Much
attention is now given to cattle, hor-
ses, hogs and sheep, particularly the
last. Sheep raising is quito extensiv Q
and it is the best thing for the farm;
er to invest in. 1t is a crop-lambs
and fleece easily and inexpensiVely
harvested. It does not require great
deal of machinery either and not man.
y harvest hands.
AS you might infer, there is con-
siderable corn raised; and tho crop
this year is large and thrifty. BY
feeding it to cattle and hogs the farm
or makes it pay. The stock is,
much of it, bloOded; and the horses
are for fast driving and heavy work.
The growth of the county in popula.
ton is rather slow in the past ten
years, but with two railroad towns,
FairmOnt, one of the most enterpris.
ing in all this region and for q long
time the only village in the county,
and Sherburn, it will improve rapidly
in this particular.
We crossed the line a few days ago
into Iowa, a few miles. There is not
much settlement near the line; for the
land is owned by spectators; but the
opportunity for grazing is fine.
Here is a good chance for cattle.hcrd-
ers.
Six miles or so across the line at
Swea there is a swede settlement of
about forty families. They are max
ing beginning. The prairie is roll
ling and treeless. Fuel has to be
hauled from distance; but grass is
used to some extent.
There are small lakes here and there;
and possibly the best thing fol the
people to 60 into is stock or dairying,
or the culture of fax. With time
and experience we shall discover
what Is the best industry for every
section Of our land.

they met q hearty welcome.
The exercises of the afternoon were
begun shortly after 2 o'clock. First came
the sixty girls in their handsome blue
uniforms already described, and we're
put through the great staff and other
exercises by Mr.. Carl Gebser. 1t
was our pleasure to witness similar
exercises at the national funniest in
Milwaukee, in 1877, and we have no
hesitancy in saying that the move.
ments last Sunday were executed with
the same precision of clock work, and
Mr.. Gebser has reasons to feel proud
of his achievements. Tie little girls
received hearty cheers from the vast
assemblage as they marched from the
ground at the conclusion of their exer-
cises. The competitive prize exercises
now commenced, but only Minneapolis

boys for the honors. The following

The exercises consisted in turning ON
the horizontal bar and rack, swinging
clubs, jumping, wrestling, throwing
spears, throwing weights, running,

the movements in a sc0rching sun,
they stuck to it like little men and not
until near evening did they give up.
They were frequently buoyed up In
their most difficult feats by the cheers

The boys! Where do they spend the
evenings? Parents, who profess to love
your children, 10 you know? Again,
where are the boys? Are they beneath
the home roof, engaged In harmless
pleasure with brother and sister, under
your own loving, watchful eye; or read
ing or studying? Ifnot, are they roam
ing about the public places Of the town,
learning much that is bad, and little or
nothing that is good? How lille do we
ofttimes seem to realize the importance
of early good impressions OH the minds
of children. Many seem to think that
their boys can never be of note In The
world, anyway, and so let them run TO
wild, like weeds. Education and ac-
complshmcnts are not the exclusive
birthright of any particular class, Ell
ther rich or poor. They come 10y care
and palnstaking, toll and study. No

ry OF famous men made first stepping
stones TO fortune out of odd moments
spent in reading or study. Do not fail
in seeing the children employed at
home! Do they desire amusemenD

healthful. Do they want slate and

Provide them, as best you can; assist
them so far as you are able; watch over
their actions. their words: i'm short,
bend them ever in the right way; and
