Constitutional Catarrh.

No single disease has entailed more suffer-

stitutiOn than Catarrh. The sense of smell,
Of taste, of sight, of hearing, the human
voice, the mind-Oue or more, and sometimes
all, yie.d to its destructive influence. The
poison 1t distributes throughout the system
attacks every vital force, and breaks up the
most robust of constitutions. Ignored, be-
cause but little understood by most physi-
Clans impotently assailed by quacks and
charlatans, those suffering from 1t have little
hope to be relieved of 1t this side OF the
grave. 1t is time, then, that the popular
treatment OF this terrible disease by remedies
within the reach of all, passed into hands at
once competent and trustworthy. The new
and hitherto untried method adopted by DR..
Sanford in the preparation Of his RADI-
CAL CURE, has won the hearty APP
proyal of thousands. 1t is instanta-
neous in affOrding relief in all head
colds, sneezing, snufiing and obstructed
breathing, and rapidly removes the most OPP
pressiye symptoms, clearing the head, sweet
ening the breath, restoring the senses of
SMELL taste and hearing, and neutralizing the
constitutional tendency Of the disease
towards the lungs, liver and kidneys

YANKToN, Dak., May 29.-The crops
in Yankton and adjoining counties
never were in such good condition at
this time of the year as they are at the
present time. The farmers of South
Dakota are in very prosperous circum-
stances; nearly all are free from debt,
and this seasons harvest will find them
all with snug bank account. The
Russian immigrants who settled in this
county years ago, and who have done
more than all other causes combined to
retard progress. are removing to Cen
tral Dakota, and their land is being
purchased by practical farmers from the
Eastern states. Russian farmers are
undesirable from every point of view.
With the exception of the Mennon-
ties, who have colonies in several
South Dakota counties. the Russian i'm
migrant is Objectionable as a citizen.
Retaining their old customs and habits,
they abstain from patrOnizing or aSSO-
rating with their neighbOrS, banding
themselves together in communities and
relying solely upon "leader" for adj
vice and guidance in all business and
political affairs. On election day tick
cts are given them and they are told to
vote, which they do, and in many in
stances it has occurred that out of 100
votes cast by them in a precinct all
were alike. They vote as the leader
dictates, and always deposit Repub-
lican ticket.

SEEDING POTATOES.
An Old Farmer Gives His Expert

An Old Farmer Gives His Expert
ence as tothe Size to Be Planted.
Special to the Globe.
MAPLEToN, N. D.. May 27.-In a late
issue (May 16) of the GLOBE I read an
article on potato culture in which heavy.
or whole potato seeding is advocated.
Now, l became convert to light seed
ing many years ago, and it came about
in the following manner: In January,
1869, made a trip from Massachusetts
to Vermont for the laudable purpose of
taking unto myself wife. The object
of that trip being accomplished, L tarried
a few days in the Green Mountain state
for the purpose of making the acquaint-
lance of my wife's friends and rela-
tives, and in so doing fell in with the
gentleman "a Mr.. Ketchum, think
who had recently originated the Early
Rose potato, also six other varieties, all
from a seed ball of the. Garnt Chilli.
Two or three besides the Rose had
gained great renown, and single tubers7
selling for several dollars. Everybody
seemed to have potato on the brain,
and big stories were told me OF
the great yield OF single eye.
No one thought of seeding heavier
to 20 West in the near future, and re-
solved that when settled on Mime
sofa farm to experiment on light potato
seeding. In 1870 l located on wild
brush land in the town Of Silver Creek,
Wright county, Mimi, and commenced
the appetiZing task Of clearing up a
farm. In one corner Of my fenced field
was three-cornered piece about one
third of an acre that at first omitted to
break, on account of its shape, but in
1871 1 cleared it of brush and grubs,
and broke and sowed to turnips. The
following year / planted the same to po-
tatoes on spring blowing, and from my
memorandum book, now open before
me, I read the following: "On April
20, 1872. planted Early Rose potatoes in
southeast corner, as follows: First
row, one seed end; second row, three
eyes cut separate; third row, two eyes;
fourth row, one eye. and thus alter
nately across the piece.
OF course all received like care and
cultivation; the season was favorable;
about right amount moisture. Now for
the result: As regards measured bush
els there was very little difference in
any of the rows, but the single eye seed
ing brought the largest potatoes l ever
saw. I am naturally Of a quiet turn.
but when dug those potatoes had to
shout aloud at the enormous size and
quantity in the hill. The seed end pro-
duced twice or three times the number,
but OF smaller size. I dug from whole
piece ia bushels. After digging l
measured the ground as accurately as
possible, and found it to contain about
fifty-fve square rods. Since that time
I have always seeded light and raised
as good or better potatoes than my
neighbors. Yet l am always open to
conviction, and since reading the article
referred to have fitted up small piece
of gro und aud planted as in ~, with
the add ition of a whole potatoe in one
row, and if you wish will report re-
suit next fall. II. w. PRESCOTT.

JAMESTOWN, Oak, May 29.-The
North Dakota Non-P Partisan Temper
ance alliance adjourned to-day. The
resolutions reaffirm the principles set
forth at Grand Forks last month, viz:
Non-partisan procedure, and a demand
for the submission of a prohibition arti-
Gle with the constitution, to be voted
Oh as separate clause. The fourth
resolution says: THAT we, who are of
the people, will not hereafter support
the candidate of any political party
which does not in its platform frankly
admit the right of the people to settle
the question of prohibition for them
selves, and which does not in its plat
form pledge the party to abide by and
defend constitutional and statutory pro-
hibition when passed by the people"
An attempt was made to raise $4,000 for
North Dakota campaign work, but only
E4O0 was secured, of which amount
Jamestown subscribed $50.

TWIN STATE TALK.

81. l.. LOucks has been on a lecture
tour among the alliances in the Black
Hills, and as he talked right out that the
farmers must elect the senators and
representatives in congress as well as
the governor from among themselves,
the Republican machine and monopoly
papers are doing some vigorous kicking
against him. 1t will be interesting to
watch the effect of this kicking against
the alliance on the annual meeting in
June.-Clark Democrat.
'Tis passing strange what revolu-
ton in the tone Of the Eastern press
toward Dakota is visible with coming
statehood. In days gone by it was all
ridicule and contempt. But now New
York and Boston journals are vying
with one another in praising the great
states of Dakota. Why this sudden
change of heart? Is it possible that the
fact of our soon having voice in ma
tional affairs has anything to do with it?
