buyers had sold out all their purchases
or nearly all of them on Wednesday with
the idea of causing a downward movement
that they believed would be a good thing
for the market. This authority made the
statement yesterday afternoon that the
vanderbilt buying was an entire sur
prise to them and disorganized their plans
entirely. 1t was very heavy at any rate
and did much to turn the opening weak
ness into buoyancy in many of the Wander
bit securities and some other portions of
the list. This family and its friends we're
credited with the boom in Big Four, New
York Central, Chesapeake & Ohio, and
Canada Southern. and also with the bulge
in st. Paul. which was one of the features
of the day. 1t will not do to place too
much faith in these stories of Vanderbilt
buying though certainly the evidence was
all in that direction yesterday. In times
past, big pools have bid up these stocks
Tor the sole purpose of persuading the
public that the Vanderbilts were buying
stocks. Something further than an adj
vance in these stocks for one day is need
ed to substantiate these rumors. They
are probably true however. 1t is needless
to say how important such Vanderbilt
interest in the market and faith in high
er prices is if it is a fact.

STAY IN NORTH DAKOTA.

A Steinbach Of Jamestown, who is
in Washington, advises North Dakota
farmers not to come west. In a letter
from Ritzville he says:
Irrigation is all right for orchards
but you cannot grow wheat in that
way. Land here that is good for any
thing is high in price from $4,000 to
$4,000 being obtained for 100 acres.
Poor land upon which nobody can
make a living you can buy for from
$500 to $1,000 per quarter section. The
whole western country is permeated
with alkali and in a good many places
the water is very bad. The water OBJ
tanned on the mountains is good. Some
places they have to haul water as far
as eight miles. Wells are costly on
the best land. Where they raise big
crops, from 80 to 50 bushels 10 the acre
OF winter wheat, they usually have to
drill from so to 400 feet through solid
rock, then pump water with a wind

EXAGGERATED.
CASS COUNTY FARMER SAYS THE
CROP ESTIMATES HAVE BEEN
FIX CGEP ATED

CASS COUNTY FARMER SAYS THE
CROP ESTIMATES HAVE BEEN
EXAGGERATED.
An Armenia, Cass county, farmer
writes the Minneapolis Journal about
the latter's exaggerated crop report as
follows:
There is not in this township one
solitary field of wheat that prior to
our rains was poor, but what is not
worth cutting today, and never will be
cut. In this township, which is about
the most favored n in Cass county
this year, we have the cream of the
crops of the state; that is, there is not
in the state of North Dakota, any
where, a township that has more acres
in wheat or better wheat. One of our
most responsible farmers has just
completed a tour OF our township and
the result thus obtained is as follows:
There will be plowed up G,4OO acres, or
ten sections. There are equal to
three sections that will scarcely pay
for cutting, might average three to
four bushels per acre. This leaves
about 5000 acres that cannot possibly
exceed ten bushels per acre. This is
the most deceiving crop we ever at
tempted to raise, and a person cennot
form the slightest idea what a piece of
land is going to yield without going
right among the grain. A field that
from a buggy might look as is it would
go ten bushels, would, after you have
personally investigated it, go nearer
four or five bushels. The last few
days have been very hot and have
damaged grain considerably. A great
deal of our wheat appears to be
blighted on the end. This alone is
going to tell when we thresh. Our
oats are a thing Of the past; we have
very few. Corn, which is doing very
nicely at present, promises a bountiful
crop, providing frosts holds off long
enough to mature it. We are assured
lots of fodder, at any rate. If the bal
ance of this state pans out as well as
our beloved county, we will have a
very thankful lot of citizens, and an
average Of something near three in
stead of six bushels per acre. II
