THE BrRLINGTON EXTENSION.

TIE BU HLlNilON IN lENSlON.
We announced week before last that
Chief Engineer White OF the B. G.. r.
& n would arrive that week and begin
the survey Of 4 line north from Wor-
thington. We were few days ahead
of time.
We now have the information direct
from Il director in the road that Mr..
White will be here this week or next
and that the preliminary work will be-
gin as soon as he arrives.
We are also assured. (but this is not
from headquarters although 1t is from
parties prominently connected with the
railroad, J that the line will be located,
this fall and everything will be ready to
begin work as soon as frost is out OF
the ground in the spring.
The extension from W0rthingtOn will
be to Bismark as an objective point anc
will pass through either Piprstone o,
Dell Rapids. just where the F"rg.
prong of this big railroad fork will join
the handle is not kHown, but i, is ali
interesting matter of conjecture. \
brisk town will spring up at that point.
Wouldn't be surprised to see the juno
tiOn somewhere in the vicinity Of Sum.
init Lake.
But wherever these lines may JON.
WOrtlingtOn is sure of two more rail
roads, one to Bismark and one to Far
90. Told you So"

AMONG THE SHAKERS.

In certain sections of the country
there are religious sects known as Sha-
kers; but for the present we. will not
speak of them. The ''shakers" to
whom we refer are those who suffer
from swamp fever which necessarily
entails Rheumatic troubles and Neural
gia. To those unfortunate ones, there
fore, we recommend Salicylica as pam
acea for their ailments. Try it and be
convinced of its curative powers.

THE OUTLOOK.

There is no denying the fact that
business is dull III Worthington Just
now, but that is always the case in
midsummer. Business, however, is not
dull in the country.s Farmers are on
the jump and have all they can handle
or more. The outlook all over is ex-
cellent. We are OH the eve of better
times, locally, than we have ever seen
III Worthington, because
l. There is i big crop ripening. in
cluding wheat.
2. The railroad lands will he on the
market and many of them sold before
long.
3. The railroad will he extended
north, connecting US with Fargo next
year and Bismarck in the near future.
4. This will make Worth!ngton a
better railroad centre and distributing
point than any town within 50 miles
and better than amy point within 100
miles except Sioux City and Sioux Falls.
SPLENDID CROPS

reports from all parts of Mobiles county
and from number of the surrounding
counties as to the condition of the
crops. and all agree that the prospect
is the best We have ever had. Wheat
is promising anywhere from 20 to 80
bushels to the acre, and corn, wherever
il has been tended and had !. chance, is
giving excellent promise. Much of it
is now t;,sseled out and showing silk.
The weather, however, has been more
favorable for wheat than for corn, and
il we can escape the hot mulky weather
which has spoiled tie wheat Tor several
years, Southwestern Minnesota Will
again come to the front with Il full
wheat crop. In fact, that danger is
nearly over. Il few days more will put
the wheat out of the ''uoug," pei iod
and make it safe. Up to date the
weather las been about all that any
farmer could ask.
