FTIit m Grow II Dakota.
Eastern people who nav thinl

Eastern people who nay think of
coming west, are congtantly asking
questions about the sell, climate, and
products of Dakota. Among other
questions they ask whether fruit will
grow. We have heretofore mentioned
that many farmers in Nankton, Clay,
BcnI1omme, and other counties have
met with fine success in growing pluns,
cherries, and the hardyyarieties Of the
common crab apples. To. satisfy any
seeker after truth that fruit will grow
elsewhere. in Dakota, we reproduce
from the Bismarck Tribune the follow
ing article, remarkiLg in, passing that
Bismarck is 300 miles north OF Yank-
ton:
THAT the soil and climate of the
Missouri slope in North Dakota IS pc
culiarly adapted to the successful rails
ing of all kinds OF small fruit is proven
by the experience Of Mr.. John Millet,
whose homestead is located four miles
south of Bismarck. Mr.. Millett began
the eXperiment.three years ago, and to-
day he has as line an orchard as one us
ually sees in old eastern communities.
He has about an acre OF Strawberries,
The plants being about two year old,
The yield is escelent'a and the fruit lus-
cious. He had ct least athousand box
es to sell from this patch. He has cur
rant and gooaeberry" bushes, grown
from the slips placed into the ground
two years ago that are TO- so heavily
ladened as to require frames to support
them. His red raspberry vines are also
heavily loaded. The berries are now
getting ripe and a finer quality never
grew'in any country. The blackberry
vlnes'are thrifty and will yield enor-
mously, Mr.. Millet also has plum,
cherry and apple trees, the three-year
olds being quite heavily loaded with
fruit. There is nothing in the fruit
line that Mr.. hlillet has attempted. that
has not been successful, and he is this
season putting in five acres more of
strawberries, raspberries, ETC., planting
a row OF forest trees occasionally for
shade and a windbreak. Mr.. Millet's
farm is on the high land, probably 200
feet above Bismarck, and the soil is the
same as all the upland il this region.
The secret of success in farming
in this region is the attention of
the farmer to business. = man cannot
live in town and properly attend to a
farm. We have too many town farm
ers. MIR. Millet is one of those who
never cometo town without something
to sell, and is therefore successful. His
other crops, wheat, oats. barley, corn,
potatoes, and all kinds OF vegetables,
are looking equally well. His oats will
yield eighty and his wheat thirty bush
els to the acre. Strangers in Dakota
who are skeptical regarding its capa-
bilities will have all doubts removed
a trip into the country in any direc-
ton and particularly if the farm of Mr..
Millett is yisited."-Salem Register.

The Thermagon.

The extraordinary cheapness and
abundance OF petroleum has time and
again suggested its possible usefulness
as fuel as well as light. In San Fran
cisco they have been trying an expert
ment in which petroleum and water
are combined. The fuel is placed in a
tank outside or on topof the house. and
all that is necessary is to turn q faucet
and the material is conveyed to an at
tachment that fits any ordinary stove.
In this arrangement there is a saving
OF the carriage of the coal as well as
the removal Of the ashes. This Their
MACON will heat a house or cook a din
ner at one-third the expense of bitumin-
u coal. 1t is said to be safer than anv
ordinary fire. AS petroleum is being
discovered in all parts Of the world. it
may yet become enc Of the principal
fuels OF mankind. Its cheapness is
shown by the fact that it's wholesale
rate is rarely more than a dollar a bar

been selling in New York as low as

OF STONES.
A Georgia Phenomenon hat Rivals the
Electrical Girls.

FoRsYTnF, Ga, Aug. 5.-This city is
much excited over q mysterious deyel-
opment at a house three miles ont, oc-
cupied by Mrs. Sandifer and Mrs. Nc
Afee, two widowed sisters. The house
is continually pelted with stones, which
seems to come from nowhere. Mr.. Wi
ley Britt has brought into town ore of
the stones which had fallen, and which
was not OF a meteoric character. 1t
was one that was lying on the ground
with dirt still adhering toit. This was
one Of the largest that had fallen. 1t
weighed two pounds, and had come in
to the window Just before Mr.. Britt
had left. A visit to the house found
the ladies at home, surrounded by a
number OF friends, who were yainly
endeaYorlng to fathom the mystery.
The trouble started several days ago.
when a stone fell violently upon the
roof Of thehouse. Mrs. McAfee thought
it was a negro boy on the premises who
had been guilty Of the deed, and re-
proved him for it, but he clearly show
ed his innocence. In a short time an
other fell, and then another, and so
stones kept falling, some striking the
roof, some the side, and others dropping
in the yard. They would fall thus at
intervals, sometimes one, two andthree.
This is kept up until midnight, when
it ceases until sunrise. A thorough
search was made of the premises with
out reaching a solution Of the mystery.
The stones were evidently raised from
the ground around the house. Some of
them, early in the morning, were wet
on n side, and one had clay on it, as
il it came out OF the ranch. about 100
yards distant. Some people think the
stones come from the sky, but wherey-
er they come from, they have set many
people to praying, and When taken in
connection with the number of e%]ectri-
cal girls who are coming to the front.
some folks assert that the end of the
world is mt hand.

Fatality Row.

There is q superstition among old
members about sitting in certain row
of seats in the House on account of the
deaths that have occurred among the
occupants of this fatal line. An old
member in speaking of Fatality Row
said: s.No, you couldn't get me to sit
there. I'm not ready to die yet"
Then lowering his voice to an awful
whisper, he continued, looking eau
tiously about:
There are lots of members in the
House you couldn't get to sit there,
either. Why, when the seats are drawn
at the opening of each Congress, some
of the members who know about the
fatality that hangs about these seats
are uncomfortable until they are are all
gone, for fear it will fall to their lot to
get one, and when it comes to choosing
between these and the otherwise less
desirable seats in the rear they always
take back seat. Haven't You noticed
how these seats are generally the last
taken, unless they are chosen by new
members? Well, it's fact. The old
men are particularly nervous about sit
ting there"
'Why is this Fatality Row more than
any of the others?" asked the reporter
'Why? Iguess if you'd count over
on your fingers and see how many
members have died before the end OF
their term who held seats in this row
you wouldn't ask, and guess you'd be
a little dubious about sitting there, too.
Just count them over, commencing,
say, with the Forty-fifth Congress,
Mackey and may be one other are the
only members who have died within
that time who did not hold seats in this
row. There was Fernando Wood,
Haskell, Hartridge. Williams (of Mich
igan). Bev Douglas and one or two
others whom l can't name just now.
Garfield also sat in this row. There is
something in it, ! tell you. l would
not like to sit there. Washington
