PeterHon'H Magazine

for January is certainly the most beautiful
number ever issued, even of that progressive
lady's-book. There are two steel-engravings,
each a gem in its way: ''The Rag Baby"
after tie celebrated German artist, KDaus; and
"a Bud Among Blossoms" after the hardly
l"ss celebrated Carl scllon. Next, there is
colored pattern for curtain border, etc, etc.,
j.. most exquisite and costly affair; at retail it
would certainly cost fifty cents. The double
sized faslion-plate, printed from steel and
co ored by hand, is also a miracle of beauty.
Az for the stofies, etc. they are the best posi-
bic; all original, and all by American writers.

Turk Meets Turk,

On Il quiet afternoon one day this week,
while some of our boys were having quiet,
innocent little game, all to themselves, they
were suddenly startled by gentle rap at the
door, and Oh opening the same, 10 and behold!
there stood before them gospel messenger in
female guise. 1t is needless to say that thu
boys crawled out from under their hats, and
tried to crawl under the table, still clinging
with one hand to the Jackpot. The good lady,
however She may have been surprised, proved
herself equal to the occasion, and forthwith
launched out upon her subject exhorting the
young men to drop the Jackpot and seek the
Lord. The boys, however, still clung tena-
ciously to their Jackpot, and, finally, their
mlnistering angel, seeing the evil spirit SO
strong within them, beat an orderly retreat
after having fired the first and last shot.

MulllattOn in Dakota.

The most horrible tragedy evar enacted in
Dakota was that at Portland, in the Red River
valley, better known as Portland-0n-t the Goose.
The affair was reported to the Tribune by
Henry Correll, who returned Thursday of last
week from the scene. He did not learn the
names of the parties, but told the story az fol-
lows: tlreshing machine was in operation.
and the band-cntter accidentally cut the feed
ers hand The feeder snatcle,i the knife and
stabbed tho band-cutter, completely opening
his abdomen and leaving his bowels exposed.
The band-cutter, seeing thas he had heen fa-
tally stabbed, and knowing that he had but a
few minutes to live, grasppd his murderer and
in his desperation hurled him into the cylinder
OF the machine where he was ground into
nincemeat, falling back himself dead. Thus
both men, through mere accidental scratch
and i'll temper, We're sent to eternity in hor.
ribly mangled state, unfit even for Or senta-

own grain; or he can then find buyer, (and
It is held there will be found no lack of thpm)
who will give him price which will be salts
factory. At every station orpoint where whoa,
IS now handled, these buyers will be found.
And as farmers with grain come to ma1ket
they would be- met by those buyers, who would
climb OH their wagons and fix price upon
their wheat based upon its merits. The aues-
ton OF grades would vanish as far rs the farm
er was concerned, and he would get all his
wheat was worth. The elevator companies
and warehOusemen, and buyers, woud come
into direct competition, and each be stimulated
to get'all the wheat they thought they sould
hande.-North Dakota Democrat.

This question has been asked and answered,
pro and con, many times, but the Herald has
yet to find more practical demonstration than
that made by Mr.. Thomas Howes, of the
H0Wes-Mairs farm, southeast of Tower City.
Mr.. Ho yes informs The Herald that in 1858 he
summer -fallowed l40 acres-the oldest land on
this large farm, which was first broken six
years ag" and crops have been raised every year
since. Now mark the result. In 1854 this
land, after ohe seasons rest, was put into
wheat and yielded over 5000 bushels, clean
aud bright No. hard-an average Of 35 ST
bushels per acre. The grain stood thick and
heavy, and Mr.. H0wes is satisfied that had il
not lodged 1t would have averaged at least 40
bushels per acre. Mr.. Howes is a thoroughly
practical farmer, and his statement shows COLI
clusivey that there is still virtue in the soil Of
North Dakota-despite the howl Of the tender
foot to the contrary. Farming, to be success
full, must like any other business, be conduct
ed on a busnoss-like basis.-7ower Clty Her..
