to Conduct a Vigorous Business
Next Season.

The adjourned meeting 'of the Farm
ers Elevator Company was held on
Tuesday afternoon at the city hall with
over thirty stockholders present, with
w. s. Dean in the chair.
There were several notes given for
stock, which have not been paid, and
were negotiated at the bank. 1t was
moved that the elevator company take
up the notes, and use every endeavor
to collect them. The total amount of
this indebtedness amounts to 5000 and
accrued interest.
AS was stated last week, there IS q
deficiency on the business of last year
amounting to about 500 and it was de-
cided to carry it over rather than as

CORN FOR FODDER.

The prospects of the hay crop in
Minnesota, except in few of the
southeastern counties, are gloomy.
Cutting has commenced in many
localities, and, as might be expected
from the lack of rain, the yield is
very scanty. In the western part
of the state the hay crop will prob
ably be total failure: in fact, in
many parts of the state there is
practically no hay.
This condition will bring the
farmers face to face with the prob
lem of how to provide feed for
their stock until next year. If
there is an insufficient supply OF
feed, part of the stock, particularly
cattle, will have to be disposed OF
under conditions which will entail
loss to the farmers. 1t will prac-
tically be forced sale. This
would be great misfortune, not
only to the farmers themselves,
but to the state at large, and every
effort should be used to obviate
the necessity for doing so.
The suggestion has been made,
and has been adopted in some
districts, of planting corn for fod-
der. 1t is not too late to do so, and
the possibility of a sufficient rain
fall to bring the crops along is such
as to justify the undertaking. A
supply of such fodder, with the
chance of small crop of hay in the
fall, would enable farmers to feed
their cattle and save them from be-
ing sacrificed.

defnitA from Kansas City other
than that Bryan will be renomina-
ted, and that there will be, fierce
fight for second place, with the
chances for Charles A. ToWne as
good as the best. The platform is
another bone of contention. The
radicals are bound to have the
chiefest plank a reaffirmation of the
16-to-l silver issue of 1896, while
the conservative demand that it be
relegated TO the back ground by a
weak endorsement of it in a gen.
eral clause endorsing the Chicago

irrigation of Rlackberries.

One important point in the irrigation
of blackberries established by the ex-
periments of Professor Jordan at the
New Jersey station is that the effect Of
irrigation is not confined to the year in
which the water is applied. The pres
ence of sufficient moisture to provide
for the growth and development Of
plant and fruit seems to favor a
growth of cane thoroughly matured
and fitted for the succeeding seasons
work. The dry season Of 1898 occurred
during the ripening period, and great
clusters of nearly developed fruit dried
up completely where not irrigated.
Nothing of the kind occurred when wa
ter was given. The dry period of 1899
occurred very early in the development
of the fruit and was not long enough in
duration to materially affect the crop,
yet the results were again very mark
eddy in favor of irrigation. -s.s4 .

particularly asked about the settlement
of the bills incurred during epidemlcs.
as to whether the city or county was
responsible His decision was that the
city was responsible. This. however. is
in an indirect way. The board OF
health audits the bills. which go 10 the

county treasurer pays them. but they
are taxed up against the city.
