found Mr.. Anderson absent; how

shows evidence Of proper manage
merit. 0. G. jacobson also owns

ed the very picturesque plantation
Of F. M. Crandall. Grain all ripe
and much of it in the shock. Mr..
Crandall owns very valuable farm
On the banks Of Bear Creek. Pass
ing north we drove for nearly an
hour and all the time passing the
gigantic farm Of FL. II. Kenkel,
with its hundreds OF acres Of ripcn-
ing grain, was indeed sight we'll
worth, seeing. Nearly all Of Mr..
Kenkel'sNwheat is now cut and it
will yield splendidly. P. w. Tomp-
son was the next place visited, who
has a very valuable half section Of
prime Dakota land. Mr.. Tompsou
reports the crops better than he mad
hoped for. All his wheat, like his
neighbors, is we'll filed and Of the
hardest variety. Farmers generally
are late with their crops and most
all grain ripened simultaneously,
therefore csjlsing Il big rush OF work
FOR the farmers at once.

1t was for the time being one of
the most disastrous and horrible
fires on record, the elevator shaft
serving to scatter the fire through
the eight story building from the
third floor--it going all over the
building much like an explosion.
Many printers had hard time of
it in getting off the seventh floor,
the firemen's ladders reaching to
sixth story only. There was but
one fire escape, and in getting onto
this a man blundered at the top and
falling carried three others to their
death, one of whom was Prof. Olson

Dakota. Latter had been in the
editorial rooms visiting brother.
The building was little else than a
fire trap, and it did it's most deadly
work.
