AND CROPS.
Published By the q. 8. Department
of Agriculture.

The three first days of the week gave
a temperature considerably above the
normal, with no rain. The long con
tinued drought was finally broken in
most Of the State on the 18th, followed
by abnormally cool weather. The tenn.
perature averaged for the week five
degrees above the normal, while the
precipitation was above in all sections
excepting the southwest. In the latter
only two hardly %appreciablc showers
occurred. High winds prevailed all
week, causing much delay in stacking
and threshing. The storm of the 18th
was particularly severc in the southeast
section of the State. The correspond
ent at Whapeton, Richland county,
reports that mar lost $50 acres of
flax; n man was knocked down by
hail and badly bruised in the face; tops
OF wheat stacks generally blown off;
machinery, wagons and cars on side
tracks moved by the wind; several wind
mills blown down, and many other
damages-the storm presenting all the
features OF a tornado. Throughout the
southwestern portion of the State,
where there has been no rain Of conse-
quence for four weeks, the high winds
which prevailed every day were the
cause Of much discomfort and damage.
Several prairie fires burned large areas
of pasture lands, stack hay and grain.
Frosts occurred generally during
the last three days of the week, but
caused only a slight damage to some
late corn and vegetables.
Fall blowing is being considerably
delayed in most localities, owing to the

numerous statistics are given as we'll as
q general and comprehensive description
Of each county. 1t is the desire Of the
department TO obtain IS good prices as
as possible for these lands and attention
is called to the crops raised in previous
years, the amount that has been rea lied
from former sales of school lands, area,
population, valuation and financial CON
dition. 1t may be set down as a good
proposition that these lands are valuable
and ought to bring an average of SIS to
$50 an acre, when crops are so sure that
large individual land owners do not
hesitate to sell them upon the crop pay
ment plan-one.half crop each year
until paid for. Thousands of acres are
sold on this basis yearly at prices rang
ing from $40 to s35 an acre. These
school lands are valuable because in
most instances all lands in the vicinity
are under q high state of cultivation.
1t is shown that in the six counties
where school lands will be offered for
sale next month there are 12,O19 farms
containing 3,3l6,O97 346 DAG
acres of which are under cultivation.
The total debt of these counties is S2243,-
IA, with s92,767 in the treasury. Pop
ulation in 1890, 93,636; assessed val
uation in 1893, s44,161, 75S-$471.63 per
capita. Assessed valuation of personal
property 11,972,2S6. CROPS raised in
~ls92-wheat, 22,979,s97 bushels; oats,
S,O68,295; barley, 3,114,1S7.
North Dakota's schools are endowed
with 100000 acres of land, which is to
be sold at auction at not less than $40
an acre, the proceeds to constitute a per-
manent school fund, the interest only on
which can be used. The terms of sale
are liberal-one.fifth cash at time of
purchase; one-ffth in five; one-ffth in
ten; one.fifth in fifteen and the balance
in twenty years, with interest payable
semi-annually at six per cent. During
the past two years the state has disposed
of $4,000 acres at an average of about
$40 per acre.
Considering the depression existing
all over the country it may not be con-
sidered the best time in the world to
sell these lands this fall, but there is an
other eide to the question. In view of
the widespread depression and lack of
opportunity to make profitable invest
ments at this time, possibly this oppor-
tunity, on account of its absolute safety
and permanence, will be taken advantage
of by capitalists and home-seekers and
that after all the lands will bring a good
price. If not the board should promptly
postpone the sale and wait for a more
favorable opportunity.

Comrade Gray is correct but we are so used
to being ignored that silence comes handy. All
who know ything about the war know that
Hendricks regiment saved Grand junction
and licked Forrest; that the cOlored troops
licked the rebels at Helena. Ark, July 4, 1863 (;
that Lieut. Col Lowe, with the 5Ist u. S. Cav,
saved Stnrgis's command from capture; that
Col. Cunningham and the 9th II. A. whaled 1"
Forrest at Paducah. and Col. Dabney and the 4th
II. A. sent Forrest flying from Columbus, KY;
that Co. d, 18th II. A. under Capt. John Seibel,
fired him from Johnsonville, Tenn; that the
"darkies" at Morganza hoped the rebels out
that If properly supported according to orders,
the Petersburg mine explosion would have been
q success, and the darkies would have come
out on top; as well as the Fort Pillow affair,
where no support was given.
The successful charge of the 81 U. s. c. Cav.
across a railroad bridge is occasionally men,
toned, but the colored troops are rarely recog-
.nized We don't blame the comrades much,
because we don't talk 'much-never did, but
We do a great deal of thinking, and the time
was when we did some little fighting.
Then, we don't have any prisoners of war

great advantage over organizations Of white
troops Our men did not suffer at Anderson

points, where some OF our white captured
brethren not unwillngly were glad to go.
Many an officer and enlisted man of the colOred
troops would have been :" out Of sight and un-

fought the black flag met them and they went

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Please give a
short history of the l76 n. Y.-CHARLEs A.
DANIELS, Waterville n.
1.-THE 10th N. Y. commenced to organize as
a three years organization, but was filled up
principally with nine. months men. 1t was
organized from Nov. 90 1862. to Jan. 10, 1863,
at New York City and Hamilton County, N. Y.
The nine-months men were discharged Nov.
16, 1863, and the regiment was later reinforced
with volunteers enlisted for three years, drafted
men and substitutes. 1t left the State Jan. II
1863 and served in the defense Of New Orleans
and in the Second Brigade, First Division,
Nineteenth Corps. 1t was changed to differ
ent brigade and division of the Nineteenth
Corps several times. 1t was engaged at Patter-
s0nvile, La Fourche Crossing Tbibodeaux,
Fort Buchanan, Bayou BGuff, Mansura, Sims
port, all in Louisiana, and Berryville, Opeqnan,
Fishers Hill and Cedar Creek, Va. 1t was also
on the campaign Of the CarOlinas from March
to April 26. 1865, and was i'm action at the
Bennett House, N. c., April 26, 1865 but sus-
tanned no loss in that action. The regiment
lost two officers and 10 men killed, II men died
OF wounds; seven officers and 50 men wounded,
and 20 officers and 457 men missing.-EDIroR
