Owing to the large shipments Of
wheat and copper, the Great Northern
people are 1000 cars short Of supply
ing the demand at the coast end Of the
road.
Alice Harris, Jennie L Covey, Milo

Of Is aud costs, and the women, $40

During 1897 there we're about 100000
bushels Of grain Of all kinds shipped
from Devils Lake. So far this season
the Great Northern has shipped from
this station 29s,14s bushels, of wheat
and $1,000 bushels Of flax and barley
of the '98 crop. There are about 1OO,-
1000 bushels CT grain now in store in
Devils Lake, and it is estimated that
there are fully $1,000 bushels yet re-
manning in the farmers hands. This
shows q largely increased yield in this
vicinity last year over ~.
j. NJ. Hanson, of the Devils Lake
roller mill, has about closed a deal for
the sale Of 100 cars Of his excellent
make Of -four to be shipped to San
Francisco for home consumption. The
magnitude Of this sale can better be
understood when it is stated that this
deal c~ontsmplates the shipment of
nearly 100000 pounds Of -four. The
San Francisco people want the best
northern wheat made into the best
four-and they've got to come to
Devils Lake for that.
