BIG WOODS.

July 10Th, 1899.
The crops as they now appear are
good for from sixteen to twenty
bushels per acre. The average stand
is light, but bids fair to head we'll.
Flax seems more than an average
crop. The rains came just as We
could wish them for ideal wheat
weather, but we lacked a few showers
in stooling time and as it failed to
stool well the wheat crop will un-
doubtedly be light. Barley and oats
are good.
Mrs. Sinclairis much improved and
Mr.. S. wears his accustomed smile.
Mrs. Aleck Stewart is bedfast with
stomach trouble. Hope to soon
hear Of her recovery. g
Mr.. Tom Story's new house is
nearing completion and looks cosy
and homelike. We are glad to see
the hardworking farmer and family
exchange the comfortless house for
the commodious one. It somewhat
sweetens the bitter pill Of drudgery.
Emma and Grace Cronkhite re-
turned from Crookston, where they
are attending school, and brought
with them Miss Mamie Wyand and
Miss Osie Clements to spend their
summer vacation, and help make
life joyous at Geyser Farm.
The poultry industry is assuming
alarming proportions for the several
feed bins here. Ducks and chickens
are counted by the hundreds at
Geyser Farm, Ole ImsdahPs and
Chris. Johnson's, and if prices Justify
will be doubled and trebled another
year.
Big Woods is coming to the front
in various ways. Bicycles are no
longer ararity and 1T now boasts Of
q graphophone. Herman Fellman
has it, and it sounds we'll, especially
the band pieces. Conn.
have number Of good second
hand binders for sale At very rea-
sonable price. CIiAS. BURSETH,

No Danger Of too Much
Sugar.

The Denver Republican thinks
that the prospect Of vast area OF
sugar cane land being added 70
the possessions Of the United
States through annexation does
mot in the least discourage the
the beet sugar growers of CoIorn-
do, and says further that reports
from sections Of the state which
have taken up the growing Of sr-
gar beets indicate that the outlook
for the industry is rosy in the ex'
treme.
Hawaii, Porto Rico and the
Philippines, even with their vast
areas Of cane land, will be unable
to supply the constantly increasing
demand for the product. and the
home sugar growers will always
have the advantage Of being first
in the market. The threatened
oversupply, in consequence, is mol
yet in sight. and few industries
have SO clear n field to a good and
steady market

Just rs Mr.. Winterhaltcr was leav-
ing for his home in California to spend
the holiday vacation he said to the En-
terprise: Advise the farmers that they
must do thorough work II they would
have success in sugar beet culture. The
soil OF the Arkansas valley is all right
for tho business. but soil and climate do
not bring success unless aided by mans
intelligent efforts. Mr.. Winterhalter
will return soon and make Rocky Ford
his permanent headquarters, from whence
with sufficient corps OF assistants, he
will give the farmers OF the entire valley
all needed instructions ia the culture Of
sugar beets. In this direction our farm.
ers will have the advantage Of the Grand
Junction growers. The factory there
gave no attention to this important
branch OF the beet sugar business.
The Pueblo Chieftain reasons that
British victory in South Africa in nee
essary to the worlds peace. Should
Victoria's empire show any considerable
weakness all Europe would be at the
throat OF Britain. 1t it unfortunate for
the Beers that events should make their
destruction necessary to prevent further
bloodshed, but it is true. The conflict
has passed from the stage of a quarrel
bet kingdom and two republics.
The peace OF the world is at stake. The
real humanitarian, fixing his ideas OH
the greatest good to the greatest nun.
Der, must hope that Britain will refute
the charges OF decadence set up by her
foes. When her ends are accomplished
in South Africa then will it be the part
OF humanity for the world to express the
hope that the vanquished shall be treated
with utmost generosity and kindness.
The Enterprise is enjoying nice run

terprising set of merchants and those
who advertise the best you will always

sequently will make you the best prices.
