FIGURES FOR COMPARISON,
Cost Of Sewerage Work Re-
Gently Completed at
Fargo.

Ihe Fargo Argus gives the length and
total cost Of nine different sewer exten-
s1ons IN that city which recently have
been completed. The figures are espec-
tally interesting at this season in view of
the contemp plated sewer construction in
this city. The size and shape of the
extensions are not given, but the aver
age price will give an approximate idea
of the cost of the work here.
6i2 feet cost 5l.00 per foot; 2.454
feet, 81 G4; 3,136 feet. S1.39: 2,O65
feet, Sl.30: l,407 feet, S134: 1.S47 feet,
sl.40; 312 feet, SIP; 400 feet Sl.OS. and
$40 feet, 51.53. The average total cost
per llneal foot to the abutting property
owners of the 1888 feet of sewer is sl,42
ranging from Sl.OO per foot to s2G4 per
foot. This average price compares very
favorably with the prices given by Eng
ineer Loweth for the cost of the con-
struction of 4,l5O feet Of sewer here. At
the average price of S1.42 per foot the
cost will be 1888. Mr.. Loweth's figures
are 5o,9S;}, to which he adds ten per cent
for engineering, etc. expenses which
may be too large.

Miles of Snow Fences.

Recently the Northern Pacific has
been constructing and placing in position
about four and half miles Of portable
snow fence in sixteen foot sections, along
the line of the Fargo & Southwestern
branch. This fence, which is constructed
of boards six inches in width, fastened to
2x6s, costs the company to build and
place in position about $3.50 per mile
When not in use the fencing is piled up
until next needed or maybe carried to a
new scene Of usefulness. In the early
days OF this division there were at one
time nearly 100 miles Of snow fence be-
tween Fargo and Mandan. This amount
has been reduced from time to time
until there are at present but
5S miles and IL feet OF permanent fence
and from 10 to - miles of portable fence.
Where necessity demands, two and three
lines of fence are required to fully pro-
tect the line from drifting snow, which
partially accounts for the large amount.
Many miles OF the fence are annually
done away with by excavating the rail
road cuts to slope of one foot perpen-
dcularly to ten feet horizontally. This
gives the winds free access and no oppor-
tunlty for the Judgement OF snow. AS
this work is expensive it is done only as
the funds appropriated for this purpose
will permit.

IN lMMlGRATlON'S BEHALF.
Editor SmalIey West Bound on
HIS Annual Write-up
Trip.

The business car of the Northwest
Magazine conveying Editor E. v.
Smaliey and assistant. arrived Tuesday
and was visited by numerous friends OF
Mr.Smalle y.Ihe car is west bound on the
annual business trip and will visit some
new country before returning. Mr..
SmalIty SAID to an Alert reporter: I'VE
are going west to look up the results of
new immigration in the Yakima
valley IN eastern Washington. The irrl
CATION company that has been supplying
water to reclaim the, lands along the
Yakima river sells unrecaimed land with
perpetual water right for about $1,000
an acre, with an additional rent OF $3.50
an acre for water. This, however, makes
a sure crop for the farmer, and one man
can make good living IN cultivatiDg an
acre or two in hops, fruit and alfalfa.
We are much interested in the enter
prise and expect to see great results
from it.
In Montana I hear that quite num-
Der of men nave found work in the old
gold placer mines that have been long
abandoned. They can make dollar or
two per day IN re- washing what formerly
did not pay, owing to higher cost of liv-
ing. They tell me there is room for lO,-
600 mon in Montana washing gold from
the old runs, and that they can earn Or
dinarily from $50 to $500 day at it.
II am glad to hear that there IS more
general use of your native coal IN North
Dakota. Did you ever hear OF the plan
of using chopped straw or hay pressed
tightly, in connection with crude
petroleum for fuel? I have wondered
why preparation OF this kind, could not
be made a success, and every farmer
have his own fuel in his straw stacks
with the addition of the petroleum
preparation.
"We will be absent two or three
months on this trip, stopping at Mon
tana points and visiting the western
portion Of the Great Northern road that
I have not yet seen."

A Wheat Wind Scheme.

The following wheat raising plan,
which promises we'll IN the premises and
thunlers roundly in the index, is sug-
gested by the Fargo Forum:
Suppose every wheat raiser in North
Dakota, instead OF seeding wheat next
spring, should buy now 10000 bushels or
or what ne expected to raise for sale
next fall? He can buy July wheat now
for 65 cents at Duluth. 4 ten cent
margin oI 10000 bushels Is $1,000, or a
10 per cent margin is $3.50. Can he
reach July for less cash outlay if he
seeds? BY marglning he saves all
trouble of seeding. harvesting and
anxiety. The same amount Of grain he
hopes for at harvest time, Is to his credit
IN che elevator already, insured and in
spected and cared for. Don't seed q
bushel Of wheat, but on his farm put In
potatoes, cabbage, oats, barley, rye and
other roots and cereals. Would not the
lack OF wheat seeded tend to enhance the
price Of wheat, and IN that way insure a
sure return for the margined wheat now
in store? OF course every farmer should
put in little patch, sufficient for bis
Own use--but not a bushe! to sell. The
only question is the stability of the CON-
mission house with whom you put up
margins. II the house IS financially
sound it would eeem to be dead sure
winner to margin July or ''year" wheat
for you cannot raise 10000 bushels and
get it to market without putting up
more money than you would to bny at
present prices for delivery next fall OF
course a few doing this might not effect
the market, but all North Dakota farm
ers uniting--it would seem to be dead
sure winner.
The greatest difficulty with the above
is that the farmers have not the neces.
sary $3.50 or 81, 900 to go into the scheme.

A DIVIDEND DECLARED.
COMPTROLLER Announces IS
Per Cent Payment for
Lloyd's Depositors.
From Fridays Daily.

Receiver johnson learned today that
Comptroller Eckles had declared a
dividend for the depositors of the Lloyds
bank, the amount of the same beng 10
per cent. This money will be obtainable
rs soon as proper schedules can be made
ont and sent to Washington and the
checks returned to this place for distr-
button. The receiver will at once begin
work on the lists for this purpose and
probably forward the same tomorrow
night. 1t will then take about eight
days before the money can be received
here This dividend will be quite well
come at this time IN jamestown and the
amount is little more than the deposi-
tors of the bank have been in hopes OF
receiving as their first payment 1t
is understood that the dividend has been
declared from moneys collected from the
assets of the bank, the sale OF the bonds,
at a handsome premium, held by the
government to redeem the banks cur
rency circulation, and that none of the
stockholders have been assessed for this
purpose, as yet.
The / per cent bonds held by the
treasurer Of the United States in the
amount OF $25,O00, have been Withdrawn
and sold by the comptroller and at SLIP,
the amount realized, brought S2S.C00.
OF this sum 22,50O has been applied to
redeem the circulation of the Lloyds
National bank, leaving the sum Of $500
to the credit OF the depositors. OF this
sum $4,000 was from premium on the
bonds aud interest, and $500 the diff
ference between the face of the bonds
aud the amount of currency issued

DISEASE BREEDING WATER,
Probable Cause of the Sick
ness and Deaths at Grand
Forks,
The Situation Grown Desper-
ate.-NurSes Needed for
the Sick.

The Grand Forks News says the cpl
demic in that city, from which many
have died, and hundreds have been and
are now sick, is caused by the nntiltered
ooze OF lied Lake river, used as water
for drinking and cooking purposes. Red
Lake river flows into the Red river from
Minnesota. Its course is through low
country consisting largely of marsh and
bog. Crookston is on the stream and
the people of that city who have been
using the water are also afflicted with
the epidemic there being many cases of
sickness, and numerous deaths. The
News says that every juryman and every
party that attended recent term Of
court and inhaled the foul poisonous air
and drank the Crookston filth IS sick or
dead. The same paper of the 18th inst,
contained notices of tho deaths and sick
ness Of over thirty persons, many of
them adults. Mortality among the child
rem IS particularly great it appears.
DR.. Weir, one of the prominent phys-
clans of Fargo, says that the cause Of the
epidemic at Grand Forks, is, IN his opin-
ion, serious matter that should be
looked into at once for the protection Of
other cities. 1t Is certainly contagious
disease which the state board of health
should investigate. The superintendent
OF the board of health at Fargo has made
an investigation OF the water used by
the people of that city and recommends
that it be boiled before further use. He
states that the old theory that freezing
water purfies it, has long since been
exploded. The Red river ice used for
cooking and drinking should by all
means be boiled before using. People in
jamestown who use the artesian water,
of course, are protected from any germ
of disease from that source, but there are
undoubtedly many impurities in the
we'll water in many of the surface wells
of the city.

Grand Forks Afaiction,

Sheriff Fadden and wife of Grand
Forks spent Sunday in the city, the
sheriff bringing patient to the asylum.
The situation at Grand Forks, where so
many people are sick and where so many
deaths have occurred, was freely discus
sed by Sheriff Fadden. He stated that
affairs there were becoming desperate
and that many people were leaving the
city for fear of their lives. He didn't
think it was right to longer attempt to
conceal the true state of affairs. He
stated that the people of Grand Forks
needed assistance in the matter Of nurses
and that great many efforts had been
made recently to get skilled nurses for
the sick. The physicians were about
worn out and could only get little
sleep by locking themselves in their
rooms, where people could not find them.
Sheriff Fadden stated that he knew If
one block IN the city where there were
thirty persons sick. Saturday there were
six funerals and six persons lying dead
awaiting burial. It is SAID that under
takers are making 5000 to $500 day.
It seems that the same general symp-
toms prevail in every case where the
epidemic manifests itself There are
pains felt in the back, which afterwards
extend to the back OF the neck and soon
thereafter the patient is generally deler-
ious. With children the disease is
especially fatal. The cause of the trouble
is undoubtedly due to tho impurities of
the drinking water used in the city
Examination made of same by experts
has shown that it is little better than
sewerage. Physicians from St. Paul
have endeavored to determine the nature
of the disease aud their opinion is that
it is form OF winter cholera. Cholera,
Of course, ls due to bacteria.
Everybody in Grand Forks is now
boiling the water used. Many are using
mineral water purchased elsewhere. A
great many people would leave the city
but are unable to get away. The Herald
states that the crisis has passed, and
that many are convalescent, but there Is
no doubt that hundreds are sick and
many deaths can yet be expected.

road fare. An effort was made
to secure her work at the hotels and
boarding houses. but without avail She
was married in June last. She says her
recreant husband got into game of
some kind at Moorhesd, lost all his
money, and then came and took what
she had saved, before disappearing. She
was given transportation to Minneapolis
where she expects to find friends. She
says she has q mother and brother in

power for use in small quantities IN the
world. The outlay for an 80 horse power
we'll is. as was seen, about $4,000, the
interest on which would be 1925 per
horse power per annum. This with the
interest and depreciation on the water
wheel ls the only expense for primary
motive power, aside from labor. A $500
or S4OO building gives the wheel and
dynamo good shelter. The repairs to
a water wheel ought to be almost zero
and the skill of the men employed for
attendance does not begin to be that re-
quired in steam plant.
