Novelties in Ladies' Skirts.

The portion of the costume which seem
to be the leading subject of enquiry at the
present moment is the Skirt. While the
bodices and sleeves are still following to
some extent the general lines of the former
season, skirts are the absorbing theme of
interest in the new importatiOns. Great is
their variety. The question of choice EN-
braces an extensive field, both of extreme
novelties and simple practical designs.
Models to suit every taste and occasion are
illustrated in the popular Mcdowell Fash
ion Journals" which we have at hand.
One finds, moreover, in these magazines in
their coupon patterns, a feature exceeding
ly convenient for those who desire a cheap
er grade of patterns than the more eXpen-
siye made up models. Among these cou-
pom patterns are seen some artistic and
practical skirt designs filling very appro-
priately a general demand for the latter.
LA Mode de Parls'' and "Paris Album of
Fashion" cost $3.50 each per annum, or 30
cents per copy. 'The French DreSsmaker"
is 81 year or 30 cents copy. "La Mode"
which is the best home magazine of its
kind, costs only S1.50 year OF 15c. a copy.
If yeu are unable to procure any of these
journals from your newsdealer, do not take
any substitute from him, bat apply by mail
directly to Messrs. Mcdowell 4 Co., 4 West
l4th Street, New Yerk.

SAINT THOMAS. N. D., Oct. %, 1894.
EDITOR OF BRADFORD OPINION.
Dear ST:-I wish to draw your attention
to ian article appearing in No. 81 (Oct. 10,
1894, information from TIE west." Don't
you think the writer little mixed in his
geography? Placing the Red river in Ne
braska and Kansas might do well for the
NebraSkanS, but we prefer to let it run on
the eastern boundary of North Dakota.
What he says concerning the crops and
condition of the prople may apply to our
southern neighbors but | object to apply
ing it to the Red river valley.
The present year is the thirteenth crop |
have seen here. and nothing approaching a
failure in the whole time. The present
year is the poorest we have had, but it
Will prove blessing to us, for the farmers
will diversity their farming in after years.
| Wheat has averaged about IL bushels per
acre, price 43 cents; oats averaged 40 bush
els, price 20 cents; barley averaged 20
bushels, price 36 cents; fax averaged IL
! bushels, price 81 30; potatoes averaged 100
bushels per acre, sorted, price 40 cents.
Does this look like hard times?
L have word to say about investments,
real estate is selling for 800 per acre. One
of our best fBrmers and the largest land
owner in this comfy, told me a few days
ago that he didn't care to sell at the present
price, for his land Noted him Is per cent on
the present price.
III is great mistake U1aU eastern people
have got that we are mOrtgaged badly. In
commencing everybody mortgaged to get a
start, nearly one half are clear now. 1t is
a surprise to our eastern visitors to see the
rich looking farm buildings in our valley.
Not long since was talking with visitor
from Manchester, n. H., he expressed him
self as greatly surprised. We can diversity
