Better Than Was Expected,

The grain which was hailed out on
the 23d Of Jnne will probably make a
crop yet. VIM. Webster, Of Webster
township, was in the city Monday and
stated that he had niue binders at
at work on the Spencer farm. which he
bought last spring. This land was in
the center Of the storm and few who
saw the condition Of the grain
Immediately after the hail passed over
it would have given anything at all fol!
the prospective crop. The grain had
been literally pounded into the ground
aud the fields looked as bare as IL they
had been newly plowed. The rain
which followed the hail holped matters,
however, and Mr.. Webster stated Mon
day that he thought the wheat would
go at least twelve bushels to the acre
and the barley probably forty bushels.
The latter is a very fine crop. Mr..
Webster is know as Il conservative
man and in making his estimate of the
yield he is probably not far out of the
way. II other farmers in the county
who we're hit by the hail are as for
tunate as Mr.. Webster It will turn out
that the damage was not nearly so
great as was anticipated.

viii she the state.

P.O. Gradin, of Elm Point, has lodged
a complaint against fhe State and will
expect attention as we'll as remunera-
ton. He says his neighbor Mr.. Eek
lund and himself have several acres Of
potatoes and other garden vegetables,
that the wild deer have levied tribute,
and about destroyed the whole bust
ness for the season. In ordinary years
Mr.. G. thinks he could stand it without
a growl but potatoes are worth s1.25
per bushel here now, with other veg
etables in proportion--and it is too
much to lose: Az the law imposes a
fine of sl0O per deer for each and every
one destroyed out of season, beside a
further prospect Of boarding with
Sheriff Hultberg, Mr.. Gradin, while
respecting the game law himself and
holding down his temper at sight Of
his loss, calls on the deputy game
warden to come up and stand guard
over his potatoes or bear witness to
the damage they do so that he can
prepare a bill against the State.

Grigsby,s Rough RIDERS.

It is understood that Governor De-,
vine has q letter written by one Of the.
prominent officers Of Grigsby's Rough
Riders, suggesting that troops H and
G of that regiment, being North Da-
kota soldiers, be ordered home to be.
mustered out; that the governor ask
the secretary Of val to sell to North
Dakota the arms and accoutrements
just as the men have them; that when
the force is mustered out of the United
States service, they be mustered in as
a national guard, retaining present
company organization, and thus main
tain q ATTAINED state force that has ex-
perience and be ready Cor service at a
moments notice.
It is said the general government
owes the state in arms and equipment
sufficient to cover the cost of those
sought to be retained-not for debtin
connection with present war-but on
an old account and appropriation.
If this Is done the companies will be
divided into sections, one will be in
Devils Lake, another in Minot and
another in Cass county and another at
Wapheton. In this way the force will
be pretty we'll located over the state
and the members be at home. The
governor is considering the NATTER.

ing. Last week there was rain nearly
every day and the weather since has
been cold, damp and cloudy. What is
needed is drying weather. The grain
is soft and the straw tough. It is not
believed that the wet weather has done
the grain any damage yet, but there is
no telling what the result would be
unless there is q change soon. One
reason why dry weather is especially
desirable is because Of the smut in the
grain. II the latter is perfectly dry
much Of the smut will blow out in
passing through the thresher, but if
it is damp the grain is seriously de.
preciated in value.
