TO the unthinking mind it may
seem marvellous, but a single kerr
mel of wheat planted at the Mime
sofa experimental station in 1892
has increased and multiplied each
year since then 80 that it's direct
product was sufficient this season
to seed $4,000 acres. Not only
that, but it's breed had been SO
developed that it's yield averages
Ia bushels per acre than ordinary
wheat, or a total of $1,000 more
bushels of wheat than any ordi-
nary scrub lot of seed would
have produced with the same care
and on the same land.

STATISTICS of the census of 1900,
together with the state exhibit at
the Pan-American exposition may
be counted among the more i'm
portant 'teye-openers' that have
attracted the land-seekers from
Iowa and many of the eastern
states North Dakotaward during
the present year. In almost every
case these new corners are men of
intelligence, who in the past have
farmed pretty much with their
heads, and are readily able to see
that North Dakota farm lands at
from SIS to $50 an acre are much
more desirable for fertility of soil
and versatility of crop than those
they are disposing of at from $50
to 500 in order to come west.

WALHALLA is getting to be con-
siderable of a railroad centre, or
something of that kind, especially
SO since Jim Hill has put ON daily
trains this fall in order to relieve
the congested condition of the
grain market. Last week this
fact started the Mountaineer editor
on the theme that the 'Halla is a
really big wheat marketing point.
In outlining the long-haul market
ing radius of points contiguous the
Mountaineer comes across the
Cavalier county line to the north a
distance of twenty miles, which to
say the least is stretching the area
tributary to Walhalla q little. It's
all right and proper for the Noun
taineer to boom it's town, but we
can't stand its work when it en-
croaches to half the width of an
adjoining county. When it
comes to showing up fig-
ures substantiating q title as a
grain marketing point Langdon
doesn't take back seat to any of
the towns in the state. Does the
Aountsinser want to take up the
question?

NORTH DAKOTA BENEFITED.

The fasteners belief that moth
ing but wheat can be raised in
North Dakota has been shattered,
and as a result many from the
middle west and eastern states will
become residents of our state next
spring. This has been largely
brought about by the exhibits of
North Dakota at the Pan-American
exposition. Our state stands out
prominently before the eyes of the
easterner, who has now become
thoroughly convinced tnat diversi-
fed farming finds its haven in
North Dakota. Though North
Dakota had the smallest appropria-
tion-$l0,OO0- she had display
that compared favorably with that
of any state, and the commits
sioners having the exhibit in
charge were able to return with
several hundred dollars-a re-
markable showing. The state was
awarded twenty-three medals in
the agricultural department, the
highest number given to any state
except New York. It's display of
butter and corn fairly astounded
the east. Corn of last year from
North Dakota was awarded a
bronze medal, and this years corn
a silver medal. The exhibit was a
revelation to thousands. Butter
which was shipped 1900 miles
under many disadvantages, oc-
casioning long delays, when COM
pared with eastern butter, scored
with the highest, placing North
Dakota among the leaders. Far
mers from the eastern states who
saw the exhibit of North Dakota,
expressed their intention Of com.
ing north next spring with the
idea Of settling here. North Da.
kota holds out many advantages.
To them a 4O-acre wheat field is
unusually large, and only the
wealthiest farmers feel that they
can devote much land to this
cereal. The large farms of this
state appear to them miraculous.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1901-11-21
FARMERS COMPLAIN.

The industrial commission Mt
Washington, in review Of far
mers' evidence, says bitter COM
plants have been made against
the many combinations among
warehousemen, and that the
price of wheat tributary Minnes-
polls seems to be fixed in the
Chamber of Commerce, in which
the elevator men and the commits
men are represented. While de-
creases in price are hustled out by
wire, increases in price are sent
out by mail. The allegation is set
forth that the grain companies
discriminate between localities in
buying wheat by grading the
wheat too low at given places.
Trouble in getting cars for far
mers' independent shipments is
noted. The report says there is
complaints about the grain inspec-
ton at terminal points in Mime
sofa. This is said to be the great
est evil from which the farmers of
North Dakota suffer. 1t is alleged
that the grades given North
Dakota wheat are too low. Mr..
Prom, of Milton, who was called
to Washington to give evidence,
suggested that the appointment of
inspectors should be taken out of
the hands of the governors of the
state, add he appointed for their
own fitness and allowed to appoint
their own deputies.

intelligence of Animals.

Paul B. Du Chaillu, the explorer. says
there Is no doubt that animals talk In
certain ways among themselves. In
Africa he has heard gorillas laugh and
guffaw when they came to rob mans
field and found that elephants had al
ready destroyed everything as If they
appreciated the joke on themselves.
Again he heard gorilla which had
found some choice berries call another
that was a long way off. He saw
monkeys apparently deliberate for a
long time before making some move.
These animals, by the way, rarely
drink water, but eat juicy berries and
fruits instead. Du Chaillu was i'm
pressed by the fact that even In a
tropical forest animals have to work
hard for living. Some Of them travel
miles every day to get food and have
all kinds of trouble in finding safe
place to spend the night. Even ele-
plants are very careful about their
sleeping places. They hate snakes,
ans before lying down they carefully
trample over Il large area to kill or
drive out reptiles and rodents, and big
az they are they go in herds for greater
safety.

Those who indulge In the luscious
peanut or groundnut, will be interest
ed to learn what was said of this COM
modify at the New York botanical
garden recently. AS the name peanut
indicates, it ID member Of the pea
family and Is not nut at all, but just
as much pea in the pod" as any pea
or bean. The curious fact about
groundnuts is their burrowing habit.
The plant looks very much like clover,
but has small bloom, from which
descends long lilament carrying the
embryo peanut. No sooner does this
touch the sandy ground in which the
plant grows than it develops into the
nut as we know it.
With the sharp, hard point Of the
shell the nut works its way down into
the sandy soil and continues attached
to the parent plant by the little fila
ment, through which 1t nourishes Its
parent In dutiful fashion. The reason.
ing instinct Of the plants Is interesting,
for should 1t happen that an obstruc-
ton Is placed in the way of the infant
peanut or II the sand should be dug
away at the place it had planned to
enter the earth 1t will give up the effort
and die.

A German professor who lived at the
court Of the Duke Of Brunswick was
fond Of astounding his patron with
chemical tricks. One day he appeared
at dinner in d long white gown and sat
chatting as though that were his usual
dress. Presently it was noticed that his
odd costume was taking on color. First
1t turned to faint rose, then to deeper
shade, then to pink, until finally. when
dinner was over. the professor walked
out In a robe Of dark red. He did not
like to betray his chemical secrets, but
another chemist at the court went into
a long series Of experiments on his own
account ard at length found out how
the trick could be done. When limewa-
ter Is poured on the juice Of the COM
mon beet. it bleaches It, and when
white cloth Is washed in the compound
1t leaves no more trace than water. But
In few hours after the cloth has dried
1t will become as red as the beet itself.
