We don't know so well about that

at Chanute. When a company repre-

thousand dollars and then wants the
city to make it a big donation add
subscribe for the bulk Of the stock we
are inclined to think it would be well
to let it 90 to some Of our neighbor-

inducement we think tie city don't

quite commotion the first part of

were rife, but there seems to be moth

schools, and we think every possible
care and precaution is being taken by
the board and teachers.

JOHN RAISES APPLES.

The efforts Of Mr.. John Dinwoodie
to grow an orchard on his farm, have,
like most of his efforts, proved sue
cessful. AS proof of this Mr.. Din
woodie was caller at this Office Satur-
day morning bearing with him two
apples, one Of the ''Duchess'' variety,
which measured over ten inches in
circumference, and the other crab
apple. Both were beauties, and show
how perseverance, along any part
ioular line will succeed. The trees
from which they we're grown were
furnished by q Sparta, Wis, firm
which was instructed to send what
ever variety which it was thought
would be best fitted for this climate.
Most of the trees thrived, while out Of
q dozen trees which Mr.. Dinwoodie
ordered from Grand Forks, which
would certainly be expected to be
adapted to the climate Of this region,
only q few survived. People residing
In the mountains or in other parts Of
the county should profit by Mr.. DIM
woodie's example and be possessed Of
an orchard themselves. 81.

RAILWAY RUMBLEs.

Mr.. G. II. Olmsted, the man who acts
as agent in buying the right-of-way for
the Great Northern extension arrived
in town Friday evening, remaining a
sufficient length of time to close deals
with most of those over whose land
the railroad will run. Mr.. Olmsted
said that there is a strong inclination
on the part of the authorities to grade
the road out as far as the proposed site
for the first station about 15 miles west
of Bottineau this fall, but he thought
it hardly likely that the extension
would reach the river inside of two
years, though he does not pretend to
be an authority on the matter.

1t is our painful duty to record the
death of Mr.. w. @. Gourlay, of Scotia,
which sad event. occurred last We'd
nesday, after an illness of about two
weeks. Bowel trouble was the cause
of his death.
Mr.. Gourlay was resident of Botti-
neau County about eleven years, the
greater portion of which time he re-
sided on his Scotia farm, of late years
holding the Office of postmaster.
A large circle of friends deeply re-
greet the death of Mr.. Gourlay, and the
family have the sympathy of the COM
munity.

FLAX AT THE RIVER.

Mr.. James Blackmore was in from
the Mouse river yesterday purchasing
a binder with which to cut his crop Of
fax which covers 10 acres of ground.
Mr.. Blackmore informs us that if the
frost holds off a few days the farmers
west of the river who have fax sown
will be the luckiest men in the State,
as, under favorable weather condi-
tions Chere will be large crop, and
some of the farmers have put in flax
very extensively. The wheat crop in
the Mouse river country, after giving
promise Of being extraordinarily large,
Is failure on account of rust.

WHAT WAS IT?

George Russell shot bird Monday.
We use the commonplace word "bird, -
which might refer to any of the
feathered tribe, because we are not
posted in ornithology and will not
venture an opinion as to what species
of bird it was. It would be unwise
to call it sand-hill crane because Mr..
Russell, who informed us that it was q
stork, might take a.poke at our ''trem-
bling head, ,"-the expression not
original-and we would not say any
thing to give the people who pro-
nounced it crane cause to remark
that we don't know what we are talk
ing about (which is a fact-when it
concerns birds). Anyway, George
Russell killed bird. as everyone will
agree, and e. w. Hough has sent its
remains to Grand Forks to have it put
in condition for exhibition.

A FRESH DIFFICULTY.

Mr.. Richard Williams showed us
several roots Of wheat stalks with q
very short stem which was as nicely
trimmed as though cut with sickle.
Upon tearing the stem apart what ap.
peared to be a small white worm was
found. It was this which is the sub
ject of the following letter from the
Agricultural College, to which Mr..
. Williams had sent it for examination
by those better posted ON the matter
than himself:
Agricultural College, N. D.

Dear Sir The insects inclosed by
you August 25th are the larvae Of the
Wheat Stem Saw Fly, (Cephus pyg-
moeus). This insect was first found in
this country in the State of New York
about thirteen years ago. 1t is not
likely to do great damage for any
number Of years in succession, nor
over very large area in any one year.
The remedy is to burn the stubble in
the fall or early spring. These larvae
develop into the adult stage early in
June. The adult insects lay their eggs
in the upper portion of the wheat
straw and the grub which matches
works it's way downward and is always
found near the ground at the close OF
the season. It is probable that plow-
ing the stubble would also be a
preventative measure but of thisJ am
not sure. Ifyou can send me qdanti-
ty of material will be glad to expert
ment with them.
Yours very truly,
@. B. WALDRoN.

frankness the courage and the philosophic calm
which were to be expected of him AFTER MS
bold and exhaustive discussion of the currency
ouestion in his Indianapolis speech Of accept
ance This interesting episode occurred at
Fort Scott. Kan. and this was the fashion of
it: Some one asked him about North Carolina
and the race question in that State. Il am

BRYAN. ''Now. I want you to read the Sulu

twill blush until Election Day and never have
"tme to think of North Carolina"

Truly, it is a great scheme. Only, with all
reserve and respect and reverence we are not
sure that 1t is quite original. For it is written
Of the late Dennis O'Toole that he was once

was at home, and to do so by giving him IAN
