Ii is urged in some quartees that the farm
ers of the great region of North Dakota blum

price down to low figures. If all who are able
would build granaries OH their farms aud hold
the wheat until the Wis bic supply took down
ward turn,and tue railroads nud an abundance
of unused cars, It is believed they would find
large profit, even if they had to borrow
money. The wheat will soon be all shipped
and The prices will begin to go up.

2, and the population of Dakota will be found
almost exactly 415,0u0. The vote of 1854

crease of population between those dates,
shows fraction less then n vote to Al of

rhetorical periods and loose st tements it
wall he put at Il half million. There is enough
for good state.

has just made its first annual report, and it's
operations are claimed to be extremely salts
factory. Nine tenths of the wheat shipped
graded as No. l hard, and the report claims
that the producers Melted at least 10 cents a
buShel more by reason of the competition OF
the association. and that nearly as mucn was
saved on the supplies bought. The opera
tons of the association will be greatly ex-
tended the coming year.
Some persons along the line of the Mani
toba road. where there has been so much
complaint of lack of cars to ship wheat, are
badly torn up over the report that William
E. Smith, the new attorne for the Manitoba,
