JAMESTOWN, N. D., Dec. 90.-The
Alert gives some information about q
matter of general interest-the new
tread power threshing machines. One
Of these small separators is now at work
on the Darlington & Casey farm in
Foster County, and Senator Casey, 81
ways On the lookout for improvements
in farm machinery, has been about the
first to try tllis substitute for tho ex-
pt1 siye steam thre.her. The tread.
power machines is worked by three
horses or oxen, with five or Elk men,
md costs about $3.50 or 5000. and
!brckhes from 300 to 400 bushels day.
For email farmers an outfit of this kind
is badly needed in every part OF
the State and the probabilitie es
are that a good many machines
will be in operation next Year.
In every case reported these small sp
ernto1s have given the gr, atest satisfac'
ton. The expense Of boarding from 90
to 25 men, the difficulties in getting
crews together and the gro.test trouble
Of keeping them sober liz bad We .the,
and on Sunday, will be avoided by the
substitution of the tread power thresher
The threshing item of an expensive
steam outfit is also too great, as the
price charge d this year-from II to Is
cepts-shows. Delays. danger ot fires,
aud other objections to the steam power
machine ale prevented by the use of the
smaller plant.

the Red River Valley district During

the Red River Valley district. During
last fall there was a great demand for
laborers, and the present condition OF
affairs in the North vest is largely due
to the scarcity Of threshing hands. at
present the supply is about equal to the
demsnd. but with returning spring the
stu ition will become as alarming as
last fall. Railroad Commissioner Walsh,
who was guest at the Merchants to
day, expressed the opinion that North
Dakota would have work for 10000
men next spring The first
work will bs to finish
the threshing, which was interrupted
several weeks ago by the heavy snow
falls, but without some outside help
farmers will find themselves in a very
poor condition for commencing another
season. Many of them are threshing
during these winter days, but the work
IS necessarily very slow and fully one
third OF the grain is still in the stack.
Major Walsh has not given
up the idea OF establishing North
Dakota wheat grades aud terminal
elevators at all points along the border
between Minnesota aud North Dakota
where there are railroad crossings. He
expects to see the present law, which he
considers defective. amended by the
next legislature. He states that the
stock for the West Superior elevator
vii! be subscribed by March 1. This
will .,e one of North Dakotas 8 terminal
elevators.
The Major was accompanied by Mr.
Edgerly, secretary of the commission
who is ut present preparing his annual
report.

muirer interposed by the bank to the
complaint. The case really is to test
the threshers' lien statute ofIast winter,
law over which attorneys diff.r radi
cally. The claim is made that this class
of legislation. such as the seed lien
statute, cutting off prior encumbrances,
the threshers' lien doing the same, ETC.,
is unconstitutional and void by reason
OF imparing the rights of contracts pre-
vi'usly made. Both questions will be
