Josh Billings Is Dog.

A good story is told Of the humorist be-

batch Of students in n country town near
New Haven. He was tramping along with
q rusty yellow dog, and entered the bar
room of a hotel for some refreshments. A
group Of the Yale lads CHANGED to be there
on frolic, and Immediately interviewed

farmer. They inquired with affected in

Some interesting facts concerning the
wonderful growth of Dakota are presented
in the October report OF Mr., Dodge, the
statistician Of the department Of agrlcul-
ture. The increase in population from
1876, III to 4l5,G64 within the five years that
have passed since the census Of 1880 has al
ready been published; but 1t is only by com
parison between this incipient common
wealth and some of her older sisters, long
since admitted into the family Of states,
that a just idea can be gained of her won
derful progress. Such comparison has
been made by Mr.. Dodge, and it appears
that in the number OF farms, which in
creased from 27,i35 in 1850 to S2,467
1885, Dakota outranks seventeen of
the thirty-eight states. The number at
present exceeding that OF any one of the
New England states, or the number In Cali
fornia, Delaware, or Maryland, 1t exceeds
the combined number in Massachusetts,,
Rhode Island, and Connecticut, and II also
exceeds the number in Oregon, Nevada,

that of Rhode Island, Delaware, and Florida
