Ed. GRAPHIc.-The directors of the
Pennsylvania, Iowa and Missouri Coal
and Mining Co. met at the Ballingall
House at Ottumwa, Iowa, on the 18th
inst, to transact such business as
came before the annual meeting. w.
A. Maginnis, of Bellview, Iowa, was
reelected president and D. P. Gibson,
Uniontown, Penn, was reelected
vice-president. D. M. Puterbaugh, Of
Milan, Mo-, was elected secretary in
place of DR., B. F. Roberts, of Pennville,
whose interest in the Co. was trans
ferred. E. P. Gibson, of Osceola,
Iowa, was elected treasurer in place OF
Frank P. Hall, of Edna, Mo-, whose
interests in the company was also
transferred.
The meeting was harmonious
throughout and bright hopes were en-
tertained of the early completion of a
railroad through their celebrated coal
fields on the Charlton river in Missou-
n, where the company has secured
some ten thousand acres, under lease
for fifty years, of the finest coal lands
in the west. Regarding the projected
R. R. to Kansas City through these
coal fields, it is considered premature
to disclose ali the facts that are elected,
but enough is known to warrant the
hopes entertained. This coal compa.
ny, as we understand. is not Utopian in
its character, but emlnently practicaT
in the best sense of that term and its
far.reachlng results as factor in de-
veloping the immense resources of ouI
country can hardly be over estlmatep
and all such enterprises should receive
our unqualified encouragement.

Projecting Small FRUITS in Winter.
ouracAMlE Co.. Wis, Sept. Io.

OuTAoAMIE CO.. Wis, Sept. 10.
Ep'R PRAIRIE FARMER: The only
drawback to small fruits growing In
our northwestern States is the severity
OF the winters. To be sure there are
drouths to be warded off, insects to
combat. and little skillful attention
to be given during the growing sea-
son; but the great bugbear of the
would-be fruit-grower is the winter.
Now l have grown fruit in large
quantities for market, but | have rails
ed berries for our own family use, and
have never had any serious losses by
winter-kill or other causes. Our sec.
ton of the country was originally
heavily timbered, and is still consider
ably protected by wood-lots, and tim
bered flats; but l am satisfied that l
could grow berries upon the open prai-
ries by using the same methods and
precautions that have adopted here.
Probably there are not more than two
or three years out of ten that the
bushes would need any covering here,
in winter; but as we have no means oil
knowing when those exceptional win
tiers are coming, we aim to always be
prepared for the worst, and in that
| way avoid loss.
The hardv current and gooseberry
need but little more than a heavy
mulch of fine material about the roots
and lower stalks. This, as is claimed
by many of my neighbors, is often as
effective with blackberry and raspberry
plants, as a full covering of the top, as
given in the laying down process
The danger of losing the next years
crop should induce the grower
10 protect the upper canes as well a:
the lower stalks and roots. 1t is easy
to trim the canes down and cover then
in the earth which is the most avalla.
BILE material, and the best. l take a
spade and throw a few spadefuls O.
earth up close to the stalks in the form
OF long mound to bend the stalk:
over that they may not be broken OF
sharply ben: at any place in carrying
them over to the ground. 1 benz
them over very carefully, and cover TIT
stalks to the very top with 3 or 4 inch
es of earth. They should not be ben
and covered until just before TIT
ground freezes up for the winter, ant
they should be uncovered as early a
lpossoble in spring, which will be a
soon as the frost is well out Of tht
earth that surrounds the top. 0
course they will be very much out o
! shape after being released, but the.
will soon straighten up and recover
There is always danger In using strong
manure for covering plants of thi
kind, as mice will find shelter. ant
make business of gnawing the tende
bark.
| The strawberry bed may be covered
with coarse litter, which should b.
worked into the soil between the row
in the spring. A thickly matted bed
as we too frequently find them, Wi
often withstand a hard winter wlthou
covering; but'a well ordered bed shoul'
always have its covering in winter.

Senator Sherman's suggestion in his
recent speech to the Cincinnati Cham
Der of Commerce, that the people OF
this country ought to take the over
production of grain as a hint to vary
their products, is warmly applauded
by the Department of Agriculture,
which has been preaching this doctrine
for years. The sugar feature of it Is
most prompt to suggest itself, because
the amount paid out for sugar is great.
er than for any other commodity that
is brought from abroad. 1t is, how
ever, believed that there are numerous
other articles which are now brought
from abroad and for which large sums
of money annually go abroad, which
might readily be produced here, and
the money thus kept at home. 1t is
pretty clear that the most important
thing for this country now is the adop-
ton of systems by which the six OF
seven hundred millions OF dollars Of
our money which goes abroad annually
may, in part at least, be kept at home.
The suggestion that over one hundred
millions ofthis..might be saved on sugar
alone is one that is attracting much at
tention in all directions. The expert.
ments and Investigations by the De-
partment this season regarding all
classes of sugar, from maple to that
produced from beets, are looked for
ward to with great interest by political
economists and practical producers
and dealers.

General Passenger Agent j. W. Moore,
issues Circular No 36 to the General Pas
senger Department, announcing through
connection to Portland by the Oregon
Shortline via Granger and the Oregon Rail-
way and Navigation Company in 1920
miles. Time from Omaha three days and
a-half. Pullman palace cars and emigrant
sleeping cars will run from Omaha to
Portland direct and without transfer. A
comparative schedule of distances from
Chicago to Portland between the Union
Pacific and Northern Pacific railroads, as
figured on Circular No. SO of the former
company, shows only difference of eleven
miles in travel of over two thousand.
These two grand transcontinental railways
present such attractive accommodations to
passengers in speed and comfort and such
incompatible views OF grand scenery along
their routes between their termini. that no
traveller will or can see the grandeur of the
great Northwest without going West by
one and returning by the other.

McQuaid's Backer.

Our distinguished townsman, Hugh Nc
Quad from over the water, sends the Dillon
Tribune copies Of the London papers, and
in return receives from the Tribune this
tacetiOuS send off: Hugh McQuaid is a
printer by trade. Once he was nearly as
poor as old man Lazarus, told about in the
Bible. Now he is as rich as
Mackay the bonanza emperor. He is an
awful, unwashed Democrat, having voted
Tor Maginnis six consecutive times. And
now, that Cleveland is elected President,
some one should nominate Hugh McQuaid
loT Ministsr to England. Hugh would
make daisy Minister-not a minister of the
Gospel, though, for he was the recognized
chief Of Montana night herds long enough
to disqualify him for religious pursuits or
purposes. He is Democrat of the Cleve-
land stripe. Hugh never married, but he
did court the Widow Duffey vigorously,
but unsuccessfully, and for which offense
McQuaid was granted unconditional abso-
luton. 1t will thus be seen that McQuaid'S s
qualifications for the position named are
exceedingly brilliant. Hugh McQuaid is
now In London, loafing around near such
royal old chaps as Gladstone and Granville,
and If recommended by Maginnis, it is
among the possibilities that the income
ing administration will name McQuaid for
Minister to England"

Territorial Teachers Association.

Acting upon the generally expressed
wishes of the teachers Of the Territory, as
expressed at the several county institutes,
there will be general meeting of the
teachers and county superintendents of the
Territory at Helena on the 29th-31st
instant. The leading purpose will be to
consider such changes of the school law as
may be deemed essential to urge upon the
attention of the Legislative Assembly, out
it will be the purpose to consider any and
all subjects that will benefit the schools of
Montana.
The railroads have been asked to give
reduced rates, and the citizens of Helena
will, it is believed, furnish free entertain
ment. 1t is desired that as many as pos
sible of those intending to come will notify
the President.

Literary Association.

Last evening at the residence OF Major
Clayton was inaugurated the nucleus OF
what promises to be very entertaining
and instructive literary society. The meet
was largely attended by representative cit
liens, ladies and gentlemen, and was called
to order by Col. WILDER F. Sanders, who in
his usual graceful and eloquent style stated
the purpose and intention of the organiza-
ton. At the conclusion of his remarks,
Major Clayton was elected permanent Pres
ident, and our brilliant and accomplished
Miss Annie H. Holmes, Vice President ;
Mrs. A. c. Botkin, Secretary, and Edwin
Floyd Crosby, Assistant Secretary. A COM
mittee on resolutions and bylaws was ap-
pointed by the chair to report on Monday
evening, December 18th, and the election
of other officers was deferred until the re-
port of the committee on permanent or
ganization had been acted upon.
Readings, essays and selections, from
standard dramas and comedies, were refer
red to Miss Holmes, Mrs. Sharp, Miss San
ders, Mr. Garrison, Mr.. Thornburgh, DR..
Higgins, and other prominent ladies and
gentlemen.
The next meeting of the society will
doubtless be social treat as the member
ship already enrolled embraces nearly If
not all of Helena's available literary talent.
