"Make Hay While the Sun Shines"
Major S. w. Groesbeck, judge advo-
cate United States army, with head
quarters at Chicago, writes the TRIBUNE
as follows: II notice the Dakotas are
being favored with an abundance of rain.
From experience. I know that means a
heavy growth of natural grasses in the
lower lying lands and on the benches of
your rivers and small streams. Here in
the central region, where the greatest
offerings of hay for commercial needs
are made, there is an almost total failure
of the hay crop. Very wide sections
heretofore contributing to commercial
supplies, will have to import hay this
year. Hay Is, therefore, certain to COM
mand a high price in the near future.
Why, then, should not the Dakota farm
ers cut their fields closely this year? 10
snake hay while the sun shines is an
old saying that applies with special apt
ness to the Dakotas this year, and the
sun is now shining for them with respect
to hay making as it never has before.
You will confer a benefit of no small
significance if you can induce your peo-
pie to turn special attention to making
hay wherever they can gather a bale.
They will be able to sell 1t for good
money"
There is some good advice contained
in the majors letter, which North Da-
kota farmers might we'll consider.

Glen Ullin's Fourth.
DR.. Stark, the TR1BUNE's reliable Glen
Ullln Fourth of July scribe, and all
around historian, writes: Everybody,
including the ladies, both of the new and
old sort, ought to be in Glen Ull1n on
the Fourth to celebrate. We are going
to celebrate, and want everyone to come
and join with us. Mr.. Packard of the
Mandan Times, is the gentleman who
will deliver the Grafton, and no doubt he
will handle the bird emblematic to per-
lection. The eagle will screech as he
never did before. The Declaration of
Independence will be read. There will
be a pavilion dance afternoon and even
