that through the exertion of Mr.. McMil-
Ian and the liberality of our citizens, our
race track has been worked over and re-
graded and is in the best possible condi-
ton. It only needs to be driven on to
make it the fastest half mile track in Min
nesota. We hope our citizens will cm.
brace the opportunity to try the speed
and mettle of their road horses at the
matinees which win be held each Tuesday
and Friday afternoons. All are cordially
invited to trOt out their favorite nags
We hope that none will neglect SO favora-
BILE IN opportunity to speed their nags on
first-class track without expense. The
first matinee, next Friday afternoon, at 8
o'clock.
The firm of Richardson, Day s. Pierce
have been blooming" real estate lately.
They have sold
1S5 acres of improved land. in town Of
Lyle, to VIM. Dade, for $3.50:
100 acres of improved land, l mile north
of Taopi, to c. Alleman, for $144O:
80 acres of improved land, near Taopi,
to Chas. H. Weber, for $7?O:
12O acres, in town of Lodi, to Geo. ana
Jas. Lukens, for $1,000.
12O acres, in town of Marshall, to ben.
NJ. Hanson, for $1,000:
12O acres, one mile from Rose Creek, to
N. Fink. for $500.
Aswill be seen all these sales have been
made at very low rates-all below *lO per
acre with but one exception. just think
of it. Improved land in almost any town
ship in Mower county for less than $50
per acre. But this golden opportunity to
buy cheap farms will not last long-not
longer than this season.
We have noticed that the ladies OF
the Austin Floral Club grow their plants
in pots of dirt, esthetically termed earth,
and soak them, and the adjacent furni-
ture, with water They do this thing bet
ter in France. The French woman now
cuddles the roots of her house plants in
little moist moss of a peculiar kind,
lets them smell a damp sponge, now and
then, and 10! they grow with the speed
and luxuriance of Jacks celebrated bean
stalk, and the hanging baskets do not
irrigate Monsieur's slippers and new tile,
nor fill the house with graveyard smell
of mud. This is no poetic dream OF the
future but realized fact OF the present,
which, and more, the Dumesnil FERTILE
ing Co. is prepared to demonstrate. The
Dumesnil moss increases the luxuriance
and tenacity of life and hastens the
period of Towering and fruitage OF out
door plants also; the strawberry is earlier
and sweeter if mulched with it, and even
the homely potato owns its wonderful
power.
