PLANT USEFUL TREES.

It Is the suggestion Of an eminent hor-
ticulturalist that no one should plant a
tree except it produce ONE nut or fruit
useful to man or beast. The planting Of
trees has been urged by US so often that
it has become ''chestnutty," perhaps,
but nevertheless plant trees. Chestnuts
have not been tested in Dakota, to our
knowledge, but walnuts and butternuts
will grow, and 90 will wild cherries and
plums, and other useful trees. Plant
trees, they will be growing while you
sleep, and your children and generations
to come will call you blessed.
The Bottineau pioneer. (Bottineau, N.D.) 1885-1895, 1889-09-12

WILL HAVE PLENTY OF TREES.

It ID stated in the newspapers that
some of the Sioux commissioners spoke
Of Dakota as q treeless region when they
got back into their eastern homes. The
st. Paul Globe heard OF this and in .
late issue made the following editorial
comparison between Illinois and Dakota
to show that Dakota would in time rival
any of the older states in trees:
Illinois was in its early days, away
from streams, about az t~rseless as Da-
kota; nov in every direction the eye
rests gratefully upon extensive groves
upon the prairies, and the towns and
villages are almost embodied in trees.
No prosperous farm is without it's wind
break, and it is likely to earn the name
of the Forest State. Dakota has perhaps
fewer native trees, and has some less
favorable conditions for tree growing.
but the trees will live and grow under
proper care, and the new states may yet
rival any Of the older ones ia trees as
well as cereals.

Commodore Maratta is an old.time
