Tuesday, and will of course haye full
house.
Judge Palmer has postponed the term Of
court at Flandrau until fall to accommodate
the farmers.
Wild strawberries are very abundant in
many sections of the north and are gathered
in large quantities.
Methodist church was dedicated at Tow
er City Sunday with large attendance and
interesting exercises. Also one at Mimic.
E. D. Barker, having sold out his paper at
Hlllsboro, has bought fine farm at Mime
sofa lake, in Faribault county, Mimi, and
will move there.
Judge Francis states that he will not be
able to hold court for five or six weeks as it
will take him that long to finish up his land
office business.
man in Dakota who has picked rs bush
els OF fine black raspberries from his bushes
this season is entirely convinced that Dakota
is adapted to small fruits.
Major Butts, of Lisbon, has accepted the
nomination rendered him in this column
for district attorney and will secure the cleo
ton if his crop of tomatoes holds out.
A. L. Buell., of the Henry Eagle has bought
1925 horse, which he claims is the fastest
animal in South Dakota. He has made quite
fortune in the newspaper business
A convention of stock growers and ranch
m en- will be held at Helena on the 2Sth of
July. 1t is expected that a large number
from West Dakota and MOntono will ha in,
attendance.
1t is very singular that the remains of Ed.
+. Knapp, who was lost on the prairie in
Kidder county last winter, have never been
found. His mother offers reward for any
information on the subject.
Col. Plummer achieved such reputation as
an orator at Chicago that some of the county
fairs in Illinois are endeavoring to recure
him to crate to the grangers. He will soon
take the stump for Blaine and Logan in the
east 80
Deaths in Dakota are very largely of the
impromtu, sudden order. At Larimore the
past week, N. B. Holmes, the druggist, was
well and at his place of business at 2 p. m,
and at he was dead. He was an old resi-
dent, of two years, and highly esteemed.
The reports indicate that the Indian feature
of 4th of July celebrations in nearly every
point advertised in Dakota was an egregious
farce, fzzle or fraud 1t evidently isn't the
faith of the ''untutored" to celebrate the
jubilees of their eXterminators.
The paper at MinDewaukon on DEVILS
lake advertises to receive water melons on
subscription. There has been an impression
that fruits of this sort did not flourish so far
north. The same paper reports green peas,
potatoes and other vegetables before July 4.
The farms of VIM. Glass in Barnes county
has wheat that shows sixteen vigorous stalks
to one STOOL He expects to harvest forty
bushels per acre from some of his fields.
About the only poor pieces of wheat found in
North Dakota this year are attributed to poor
farming.
This is the record of county only settled
last year. From the Nens we learn that the
population of Foster county is 400. valua-
ton of farm lands, $3.50, $50; valuation Of
real estate in the six villages of the county,
s55, $50; personal property, 1902, 532. Total
valuation, S44S, 092.
The Democrats at Fargo ratified the NOM

of four or five hundred and where surprised
at their own numbers. Probably this will
be found the case generally this year. Col.
Morton made a rafting speech bristling with
good points, followed by DR.. Robertson, who
is power on the stump.
This statement. by the Clifton Watc7tnaan
speaks well for county only in the second
year of its settlement Gas near as we can
ascertain there are between fifty and sixty
school houses constructed and contracted for
in Sully county, with several townships that
have not yet perfected their arrangements,
but will do so before snow flies.''
Pierre is in luck in getting the conven-
tons of both parties. The locating Of the
Republican convention there is thought to
indicate that the south will use its larger vote
TO nominate a maIrof its own for delegate
and not take Col. Raymond. If it has
man that it can unite ON this will evidently
be the scheme. The late date also favors it.
The Mitchell Republican relates in iilustra-
ton OF the rapidity with which things grow in
the wonderful climate and soil that Major
Rowley, of that city, planted cucumbers on
Friday evening; Sunday the plants were up

is also raising peanuts and sweet potatoes
with promise of success.

SAYS: The surveyors of the Duluth, Fargo 81
Black Hills railroad, have finished surveying
to within two miles of this place. We under
stand the company will resume work again
As soon as the right of way can be procured
from parties owning land in the township
west of this, aud the road be finished TO
this place in time to handle this years wheat
crop.
The Sun at Elgin, in Pembina county,
has this information from across the line:
| sIntelligence from Manitoba informs us that
| farmers are blowing their crops under, nearly
| everything being failure and hundreds are
| leaving there daily. The contrast between
! Manitoba and Dakota is great. Here the
weather is supernal crops promising an
! abundant harvest ard all nature clothed in

The Casselton Reporter, in the midst of the
great bonanza farms, says of one of them as
4. sample of all: The grain on the Alton farm,
southeast of town On. NJ. Dalrymple, man
ager), comprising some 10000 acres, is uni
form in appearance, well advanced and
promises good yield. A stranger will have
some idea of the extent of this farm (ogly
| one of the immense Dalrymple system) from
the statement of the manager who informed
| us that he is responsible for $500 of per-
sonal property, /. e., stock and machinery.
The Dakota Tri5rne has this information:
ssSitting Bull and bis band Of warriors are to
be removed from Fort Yates to Grand River
during the summer. This is done at the re-
quest of Sitting Bull, that his people may
have the benefit of the game in the Grand
