$4,000 in the pockets of tho wheat rails
ers of Griggs county.
Tho oyster supper and Christmas tree
entertainment given in the Presbyteri-

quite pleasantly. All the little folks

sequently made happy.
The New Rockford Transcript rises
to remark s'that some countries are
prone to brag about raising two crops
in one season. We can't do that up in
North Dakota;but we can raise so much
in one season that it takes two seasons
to get it out of the way"
