looked for the bright face and CHEEKY

Thus, time passed on, and Horace Hay

and care had worn some lines upon the

still as warm and bright as when he

snow.
The little lads had grown like beam
stalks in the free open air. and the par

was long. hot and dry. All vegetation
was parched and scorched as BY blast
from furnace. The grain w;ltcd and
died before it ripened and the grass was
burned clear down into the ground.
When fall came there were no crops to
harvest and the farmers had no income
for the ensuing year. Agriculture gov
ems the prosperity of all the towns in
the western states, and diSlnay was de-
picted on the faces of all. as winter
came down with unparalleled sever
ity. The people left the small towns
where no work could be obtained and
crowded into the cities; there every
vocation was filled and hundreds were
left homeless and penniless to face the
cruel winter weather.

ANOTHER FOREIGN ENEMY.
The Russian Thistle Has Gained Il
Eo0thold in the DakOtaS.

The Russian Thistle Has Gained Il
Foothold in the Dakotas.
The department of agriculture has
given warning of the arrival of an
other foreign pests. The Russian thistle
has invaded the Dakotas and caused
$4,CO0,000 damages 70 the farmers of
those new states. This So-called
thistle, says the Worcester Spy, is IL
species OF SlltWOrt, Il near relative Of
the tumble weed. Seventeen years
ago some seeds of it brought from
soWn in the vicinity of Scotland, S. D.
! From there it has spread in all direc-
tons until it has covered 10000 square
miles in the two Dakotas, and has en-
tered Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and
Nebraska. Where once it obtains Il
, foothold it takes complete possession
The "igid, bulky plants often make
blowing impossible. Trains have been
stopped by it and prairie fires have
been carried long distances by it.
The secretary of agriculture has sent
the assistant botanist of the depart
ment to investigate the damage done
by it during the current year to the
crops of the northwestern state The
people of these states are alarmed at
the rapid advances of this foreign in
vader. They will ask congress to ap-
propriate 100000 to enable the de-
partment Of agriculture to employ
vigorous measures for the extinction
of the pest. Unless this is done, they
fear it will take possession of all the
arabic land west Of the Mississippi all
the way to the gulf. In that case it
will be worse than the plellro-pneu
monia among cattle, and will require
quite as heroic treatment to eXtirpate
it as did that disease.
