Nothipg BETTER than Farming.

NothipE BETTER than Farming.
Germantown Telegraph.
There are certain class of farmers who
are never satisfied with the results of their
labors, and they look upon the mercantile
business as something to be envied, and to
be got into as soon as they can raise the
necessary capital. They seldom consider
how the successful merchant has strived
to establish himself in the way of making
money, and how watchful he has to be to
sustain himself still, there is no reason
why the same processes may not lead to
as great successes on the land as in the
store; indeed, it is common experience
that it is SO. Hundreds of men every year
make money to their entire satisfaction
out of agricultural or horticultural pur-
suits. They are not SO well-known-do
not make as much show as a store-keeper
-agriculturists are too much scattered to
make this imposing appearance but the
profits we speak of are there as surely in
the ono case as in the other.
These successful businesses are simply
the result of series of experiments as to
what can best he done. Hardly bust
ness that we know of, that may be pointed
out as illustrative of great success,
achieved that success in the line marked
out for it at tn, start. A general knowl-
edge OF some one thing may have sug-
gested the enterprise, but one after an
other, as some parts would he better un-
derstOod, the least profitable would be
dropped, and, in many instances, firms that
began dealing in dozen articles would end
in only a few. We have frequently
pointed out the fact, and urged on cul-
tivatOrs that this is the only way to get
into the special crop business. There is
scarcely district of country in the whole
United States but is able to grow some
one thing or few things little better
than another thing. It should be con-
tiDual subject of experiment on every farm
as to what will grow and thrive remark
ably we'll and having found this out,
what would be the prospect of a good
market for it. 1t is rare indeed that any
one who raises just exactly what his neigh
Dor does, ever makes great stride in the
Way Of wealth. He makes out of wheat,
or corn, or pork, a fair average living price
and if he is a little more intelligent than
some rs to the niceties of cultivation he
may make more than his neighbors but
the rich farmer is generally he who by
careful observation and calculation is able
gradually but surely to get out of the
beaten track.

OUR FAIR.

menls Still Going On.


menls Still Going On.
The officers are on the grounds with a
good force of workmen getting things in
shape for the fair to be held hero Septem'
Der 10th, Goth and 2lst.
The officers of the society and our citi-
zens are enthusiastic over the prospects
as regards success of the same. The
ladies of this place are working hard get
ting all interested and to exhibit some
thing, which goes to. make a fair credit
and success. The efforts each day is an
attraction of itself which will warrant
great crowds and give everyone attending
double the moneys worth, will doubtless
be successful, if the weather gives the
programme any kind of a fair show. The
people of the city especially have offered
to them such three days entertainment
and enjoyment as they have never ap-
preached before within a hundred miles,
and without doubt. they will show their
appreciation Of the officers efforts and
avail themselves Of the opportunity.
The band boys are to give a.dance on
the evening of the third day of
the fair, and all wanting to enjoy them
selves can do so and at the same tine
help along a worthy cause. The boys are
TO play on the grounds during the fair.
They are becoming good musicians, are a
fixed institution, and deserve full house
each evening.
The DAILY ADVOCATE will appear on
the mornings of each day of the fair and
will give the news as it occurred. Any
wanting tavors can make it known. The
doings of the fair will be written up and
ciycn to the nuhlic.

The Result.

John B. Raymond, OF Fargo, receiv-
ed the nomination at Grand Forks Fri
day and we hoist his name as our standard
bearer We append short biography of
him and introduce him to our readers.
The result of the convention is not just
what we wanted. We had supposed a
faithful servant was entitled to renom-
nation and consideration, but things hav-
ing worked differently, Hon. r. L. Petit
grew had the saying who should represent
us at Washington, from the fourth of
next March,
1t is victory in this county. The gen
tlclnen who left Aeyees;ss delegates. had their
rights adjusted at Grand Forks, and came
home highly satisfied as regards their be-
ing recognized by the convention. The
methods adopted by the opponents Of the
Hon. r. F. Pettigrew in this country are
well known to our readers and we need
not dwell at this writing how these meth
ods were worked up. 1t only remains to
be seen how long things can be carried on
in this manner. The Republican party
in Lincoln county must stand united, and
any effort made as was made by a few wire
pulIers within the past weeks must be set
down upon. The old pioneer days are
past, people who respect law and order and
the right of the majority to rule. must be
recognized or decent and law-abiding cltl-
zcns will abstain from takinga hand IN any
of the future conventions The conven-
ton held is a by-word. The question is,
what is the future? Geo. II. Walsh was
permanent chairman and James f. Stahl,
secretary. The Sioux Falls Press says
But Thursday night a change came over the
scene--n fact, several changes. North Dakotans
came hustling around to see Pettigrew. "Why in in
thunder haven't you been around to hunt us up?''
they inquired. And Pettgrew replied, "Because l
didn't know that had lost any of you." They
then talked combination, saying that they mad
sampled his delegates and found them solid back
bone all over-just the sort of fellows to be deren-
ded upon in a combination-whilet the other fellows
anxious enough to combine, were so loppy and
timber that it wasn't safe to dicker with them.
sort of general understanding was arrived at, and
Oh Friday morning committees from each side met
and arranged the details. These submitted tc
secret of the Pettigrew forces at O'CLOCK
| Friday, and were unanimously endorsed hey wen,
to the convention in the afternoon and carried ou
| their promises.
The incidents of the hght to profuse to re-
cord here. Suffice it to say that the result the
adoption of the minority report in the cases Of Bor
! HOm1ne. Readle, Deuel. Lincoln and Moody coun-
ties This gave Pettigrew total representation Of
| 109 without Lawrence. to which he was as clearl!
| entitled ever he was to anything in the world
and gave Hand and Hughes 126 with Lawrence, tt
which they not entitled, leaving 100 for nortl
! Dakota.
Minority reports were made in the cases of Boz

Resolutions.

The Pettigrew delegates to the Grand
Forks convention report having had
good time notwithstanding there were
l,5OO extra persons at the convention. A
grand country was crossed and examined.
The following set of resolutions were
drawn up and acted upon and ordered
published.
Resolved, That we, the de]egetes from the coun-
ties Of Minnelahs, Lincoln, Lake, Moody, McGook
to the Grand Forks republican convention,
hereby extend our sincere thanks to the Chicago
st. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha Railroad COM
psny for its liberal and corteous treatment in ex
| tending free transportation to us over its line
Resolved, That Thomas H. Brown, Of Sioux
Falls, by his unwearied and successful efforts in
securing transportation to and from the repub-
can convention at Grand Forks for the delegations
of Minnehaha. Lincoln, Moody, Lake and McCook
| counties is entitled to our hartiest thanks,

The Committee.

The following, which we copy from the
Sioux City Journal, is the republican CEN
trail committee as appointed by Hon. Geo.
Walsh at Grand Forks. 1t is a strong one
and will likely tend to demoralize the
Messrs. Hand, Hughes and Nash, but it
cannot be helped. Mr. Nash supposed
Pettigrew were dead but he still lives.
The list is rs follows:
E. P. Wells, chairman, Stutsuian county; C. T.
Mccoy, Bon Homme; z W. Caldwell, Mime haha

Our Nominee.

Onr different exchanges speak of the
Grand Forks candidate for congress in
glowing terms. As he has resided in
Yankton and has become acquainted with
southern Dakota, he knows our wants and
needs. He is a man of sterling worth,
push and enterprise. He has promised
to work in the interests of all sections and
will do so. We append the following
brief sketch of his career:
John B Raymond was born in Ohio in 1S43 His
parents removed to Champaign, Illinois, when
John was a small boy. When the war broke out
RAYMOND enlisted private in Gen. Logan q
regiment in May, 1851. By reason of great gallan-
the very start he attained the rank of colonel at
the close of the war. After the cessation of hosti-
ties Colonel Raymond settled in Mississippi aud
became planter in Adams county; he also pub
Iished newspaper, the Jackson, Miss, Pilot. In
1873 because of the illness Of his wife, he conclu-
ded TO remove to Dakota, and upon the rccommen-
dation of Gen. Adelbert Ames of Mississippi, Ger.
Logan and Gen. Butler he was appointed United
States marshal of the territory of Dakota. He held
the position four " ars and then declined reap
pointment. Two years ago he was = prominent
candidate for delegate TO eoEgress. He is now nv-
ing in Fargo and is engaged In farming, owning,
conrectlon ~isn Hail Green, of Mississipp 5000
| acres of wheat land. Hei5 cousin of the fighting
| McCooks. and certainly one of the most gallant
! and brave officers Of the war Of the rebellion.
