to wish them the joy of many
more days to spend in the work they
love and accomplish so well. This
grand old soldier has done his work

Seventy-one long years ago
On earth a child was born,
\ mothers heart rejoiced to know
She had an infant son.
And ere twas long another home
Rejoced one bright May morn,
To know that Tod in love had sent
4 daughter to their home
And then when time had gided on,
And earth was bright and gay,
Me thinks that gladness reigued supreme,
For twas wedding day,

And you that day in truth and love
Redeemed your plighted VOWS,
And iourneyed forth lie's tolls to meet,
With youth unclouded brows.
Through all these years those vows you've
kept,

Till death your journey parts.

A FORESIRI SCHOOL.

The report of the committee on public
institutions in the North Dakota consti-
tutional convention resports favorably
upon locating state institutions at many
points. It locates a forestry school at
such place in one of the counties of Nc
Henry, Ward, Bottineau or Rolette as
the electors OF said counties may deter
mine.
The earnest contemplation of this for
estry school reflects unbounded credit
upon that convention. Trained foresters
are among the crying needs of all our
states, They are needed in the prairie
states to pnsh the Intelligent growing of
timber, and, in the timber states, to aid
in its preservation. It requires no violent
stretch of the imagination to predict that
North Dakota will soon follow Kansas in
the establishment OF state forest supply
and experimental stations. The Dakotas
are a part of the great interior plain ex-
tending. In whole or in part, through
Nebraska, Wyoming. Colorado. Kansas,
Indian Territory. New Mexico and Texaa
This whole plain should, through the ac-
ton Of its different state and territorial
legislatures, become united in the work of
forestry.
Each Of the plains states should have a
forestry school Kansas should lag no
l,ngsr IN this matter.

TOPEKA has been determined upon as
the place for the holding of the deep
water convention. This convention is to
try to bring about conditions enabling
the products of the West to be shipped
by rail to the Gulf of Mexico. and car
ried from there by water. IF ten or
twelve cents can thus be saved in the
transportation of a bushel of grain to the
final market, as compared with the pres
emit practice Of shipping to the Atlantic
seaboard, the farmer is the beneficiary to
that extent.
