CHESTNUT SAPLINGs MADE PRO-

The demand for good chestnut tim
Der is not likely to decrease and the
farmer who has fine growth of these
trees will be sure to possess something
of money value. Why not plant chest
nuts for timber and nuts? a thrifty
grove of chestnuts grated with some

will yield an income equal almost to
that from an apple orchard. The nuts
are in constant demand in the fall, ma
tive varieties selling for $4@5 and i'm
proved sorts $6@S per bushel- Chest
nuts bear early and every year. When
the native Seeding is large enough to
produce nuts, graft with an improved
variety. The graft does not injpre the
timber qualities but produces much i'm
proved nuts. On every clump of chest
nuts a group of young saplinss start
I'D and many of these can be removed
with a little of the root attached, so
that they will grow instantly when
properly transplanted. Such trans
planting is much quicker than starting
from seed.

Great northern Doing Wen.

The sixth annual report of the
Great Northern railway for the year
ending June 80 last shows gross earn
lngs for the entire system of S1S, 109,93O,
of which $40, 1865 ,031 was from freight
and 1,S54,S21 from passenger business.
This was an increase of nearly $4,000
O0O over the previous year. Operating
expenses were s., 49, 62 and net earn
ings S5,953, AT, an increase of S1,106,S99.
During the year the company has en-
joyed a reasonable increase in the vol
ume of its freight traffic, a good share
of which has come from the newer por-
lions of it's lines in Montana and on the
Pacific coast. The largest relative in
crease in tonnage has been on the
Montana division. The wheat and
grain crops of Minnesota and North
Dakota show an increase over the pre-
vious year of about 100000 bushels or
900 tons. A material reduction in
the average rate received per ton per
mile is noted, which is mainly due to
the larger amount Of grain. ore, lum-
Der, coal, ETC., carried, which pay pro-
portionately lower rates. The opera
ton of the railway met with no serious
interruption from SHOWS, floods or 9TH

The worlds fair of 1886 viii be held
in Nashville, the capital of Tennessee,
a city of 100000 people. 1t will be
known as the Tennessee Centennial
Exposition, and the purpose for which
it is planned is the celebration of the
one hundredth anniversary of the birth
of the state. A company with ample
capital has been organized. with Ma
jor John W. Thomas, president of the
Nashville. Chattanooga & st. Louis
railway, at its head, and work on the
grounds has been going on two months.
The active work of soliciting, prepar-
ing and classifying exhibits has been
placed in the hands of sixteen depart
ments which are proceeding in the
ciSion and system. The body of the
fair will consist of twenty main build
ings constructed of staff in Greek and
colonial style, one of which. the Par
thenon for the fine arts, is to be wholly
fire proof. No charge will be made to
exhibitors for space. but a forfeit de-
post will be required conditioned upon
the exhibit being in place on the open
ing day, the committee on classical
ton, composed of the heads of DEPART
ments and the director general, to be
the judge.
The exposition will open September
1, 1885, and continue one hundred days.
The plans of the management call for
the completion of all exhibit buildings
by August 1, 1896, and the exhibitors
will have a full month in which to
place their displays. The work of con-
struction is advancing rapidly. The
heavy grading has been completed. and
all the building sites prepared. One
building, the one where the admins
tration will have it's offices, is already
under roof and nearly finished. The
erection of six other buildings will be
begun at once. the foundation of the
Parthenon being now ready on a high
terrace in the center of the grounds.
The basins of the two lakes are ready
and the street car terminal station at
the main entrance is being built.

of this important branch of the great

About noon the alarm was sounded
that the ice was moving, and hundreds

about fifty yards and stopped again.

there arc in addition to the Valiant, tho
Ida Budd, the Belle Prince, the Lizzie
