swindIlng the Farmers.

ST. PAUL, MIMI, November 1.-Sev-
eral sharpers, calling themselves mem bers
Of the "Chicago Purchasing Company"
have been operating in Rice County,
Minn., the past few days, doing a thriving
business by swindling the formers. They
traverse a County with some person who
is posted as to the standing and RESPONSE
biiity of the farmers. After being intro
duced, they offer to sell goods at whole
sale prices, charging the farmer only IS
as the initiatory fee, which makes the far
mer member Of said company. They
then proceed to show how tho farmer Is
cheated by the local deal, and assures him
he can save so par cent. by sending his
orders to the purchasing agency. They
then send goods, which they represent to
be worth SIPS at retail, and close up with
the farmer for SIS cash, his initiatory fee
and his note for $50. The goods are found
to be worth only about $40, They carry
samples of pure granulated sugar, which
they claim to supply at the rate of twen-
ty.six pounds for 81, but receive no or
ders, letting the farmer order from head
quarters, a large number of the farmers
in the Southwestern part of the State have
been victimized and robbed of hundreds

Now. ell Items,

The time for sowing wheat is near, and
I am glad to cote that the farmers Of this
vicinity are preparing for that business.
Mr.. w. f. Davis, one Of the enterprising
farmers of this section, tells me that he
has about thirty or forty bushels Of fine
seed wheat that he will, as an accommo
dation, sell to his neighbors at reasonable
price.
Some of our friends who kept their cot.
ton last year, took good care of it and
kept it dry all the time, tell us that when
they sold they lost about ten dollars per
bale. Some of them who kept cotton,
throwed it around any way, and let it lay
out in the weather all the time, tell us
that they made ten dollars per bale by not
holding it any longer. You see it all rot
ted but about ten dollars worth, and that
was in TIE middle of the bale, and if they
had kept it much longer it would have al
rotted, and they could not have got any
thing for it. Now, you see how they
made by keeping cotton. We take their
advice and sell our cotton as fast as we
get it ginned.

Onr mail was little behind time last

from Brushy Creek to Newell, his mule
stumbled and fell down, snd In some way
or other got tangled up 30 that be bad to
cut him loose, and before he could get
hold of the bride the mule left him. and
there he was with the mail and cart all
alone. He knew that 1t would not do for
him to leave the mail there, 80 he gath
cred up his harness. put them In the cart
and pulled up to this office without the
mule. Mr.. J. Al. Wigington was coming
up the road from towards Piedmont and
met the mule, and, seeing that he was on
the wrong road and By himself, too,
thought that he had better stop him, 80
he was brought back, hitGhed Up and
Mr., NalIy will not happen to such bad
luck any more, though he dlden't get
hurt very bad, but 1t was pretty hard on
him to have to pull that cart as far as he
did. This shows, however, that Uncle
Sans" boys are sure, If they do some-
times have the cart to pull.

Going to Make it Rain.

GoopLAND, KAN, October 23.-During
Mr.. Melbourne's stay in Goodland, after
much argument and work, contract was
entered into between Mr.. Melbourne and
a nowly organized Company, whereby the
latter was to be told the secret, furnished
with machine and allowed to operate in
any part of the country. The Company
has capital stock of 100000, which is
divided into 1000 shares of one hundred
dollars each. The home office will be at
Goodland.
The test which began here Saturday,
October 10th, and supposed to have been
made by Melbourne, was made by E. r.
Murphy, President Of the Company, and
o. H. Smith, under Melbourne's instruc-
ton. The same gentleman made another
test, commencing last Friday morning at
o'clock. The sky was perfectly clear at
the time, but by noon they had the same
kind of clouds that Melbourne had made,
and about 6 O'Clock a slight shower fell
for few minutes and would no dou BIT
turned into heavy rain had not a stit1
breeze sprung up from the northwest and
drove the clouds away. However, there
was rain at Edison and Shermanville.
Mr.. Murphy says now that the process
has been explained to him he can readily
see why Melbourne made failure of bis
tests here, and that it was easily seen that
| the cold nights and high winds were the
cause. He states there Is no question OF
! the success of the method In warm, still
weather, and especially when the nights
| are warm.
The charter of tho company vas filed
at Topeka Monday by A. B. Montgomery.
The profits of the company will accrue
| from contracts made to produce RAIN IN
different localities, charging so much tor
a rain, and it is their expectation to make,
a big thing out Of it. The members Of
the company are silent on the terms they
have agreed on with Melbourne, The
experiments cost between $50 and go
On account of the cold nights here the
Company intend to make test In the
South. The first test will probably be
made in the Indian Territory, and then
they will 70 to Galveston, Texas. Yes
