in the city last Tuesday. He is max
ing tour of the valley looking up

weather from now on a fairly good
crop will be harvested. Mr.. Miller
desires to have his firm remembered

Miss Steenerson Dead,

The many friends in this county
OF Hon. and Mrs. H. Stevenson, OF
Crookston sympa thize with them in
their deep afliction caused by the
death Of their daughter, Miss Clara
Steenerson, whose denaise occurred
Monday morning at St. Paul, from
pneumonia. She Was 20 years ofage
born atCrookston, a graduate from
the High School Of that city, and in
all a most: estimable young lady.
But though she has'been called away

Goes Out of Business.

The affairs OF the Marshall Coun-
ty Elevator Company, Of whichsa
number of farmers from. Low
er Snake are the principal
stockholders, have not run very
smoothly and satisfactorily OF late,
and as result OF it's operati ons the
company finds itself to be over $4,000
in the hole, which amount is owing
to grain commission houses at Min
neapolis for money advanced for the
purchase OF grain. A meeting OF the
stockholders and representatives.o of
the Commission houses was held in
this city last Monday with view Of
effecting settlement. G. F. Carlton
has been the company's secretary and
manager and has done the buying
and selling Of grain. The company
has done a big business atits elevator
here during the past year. It's failure
is due principally perhaps. to a tenden-
cy to pay more than the market price
for wheat and no concern, however
strong, can do that for any length OF
time. The company has decided to
quit business.

A Successful Concert

Under the caption, "A Rare Enter
tainment, the Republican of Deco
rah, Iowa, dated June 20, has the
following to say of the concert given
at the opera house, June II:
"The Hort concert of Monday
evening was one of the finest musical
events of this city for years. While
Mr.. Hort was the central figure, the
beautiful work of Mr.. Anderson of
Madison on the mandolin, of the col
lege glee club and the vocaIism of
Mrs. Hort, added much to the pleas
ure of the evening. Mr.. Hjort is the
possessor of a pure tenor voice that is
delightfully."- trained. In the nine Sc
lections he rendered he ranged from
the highest types of oratorio work
through German, Norwegian, Swed-
ish and Scotch folk songs in man
ner which showed him a master of all
styles of concert and parlor music.
He was delightful in all. It was very
gratifying that there was splendid
audience and that it heartily appre-
ciated the superiority of the enter
tainment.
Mr.. Hjort has beer engaged to give
four song recitals at Warren, Stephen,
Hallock and Argyle, Mimi, July %,
"a, 25 and 26 He will be assisted
by his pupils, Miss Louise Grinde-

drasshoppers.

The State Experiment Station re-
ports an attack Of grasshoppers in
the Red River Valley, and that much
damage is being done in certain To-
calities. As the principal cause OF
this visitation OF the pest is given the
common practice Of summer fallow-
ing as these fleldsform ideal breeding
places for the hoppers. This system
OF summer fallowing is regarded also
rs a great waste Of soil fertility and
ought to be abandoned by all pro-
gressive farmers. From Moorhead
and other places in the valley reports
say that the hoppers are
migrating to other localities taking
their appetites along and it is also
asserted that large numbers are be-
ing killed by parasites that attach
themselves underneath the hoppers'
wings, causing sickness and death.
But no farmer should rely wholly on
natures method of determination.
but should use all means that science
and experience have found valuable
in fighting the pest. Fall plowing is
perhaps the best remedy we have for
the grasshopper difficulty.
The egg mass will then be inverted
and buried in the soil, and when
hatched in the spring the little hop
pers will have great difficulty in reach
ing the surface, and very few indeed
will succeed. After they are hatched
and hop about a successful way 81
combating them is by the chopper
dozer,' which simply is a large gal
vanized or sheet iron pan containing
coal tar into which the hoppers Jump
and perish, as the pan is drawn a.
cross the fields. Grasshoppers have
never had a strong foot hold in the
Red River valley, but it is we'll to
watch them that they never may get
the upper hand. Special efforts
should be made to plow every foot OF
land in the fall.

HOar'S Tribute to Mckinley.

"To win by gentleness, and not by
anger, to win by respect, and not by
reviling-these are theiDstruments by
which great political accomplish
ments are broughtto pass in our re-
public.
"That is the secret of the,great sue
cess and of the great popularity of
PRESIDENT Mckinley. No man, friend or
foe, differing from him or agreeing
with him has ever been brought into
personal contact with him without
not only loving him, but also respect
ing him.
"Yet there are still in politics a
very few gentlemen who, it seems to
me, are the lineal and spiritual des-
cendants Of Archbishop Land OF Tor
quemada, or at any rate, OF Sam
Paris ofSalem, who got up the witch
craft movement-men who, if they
cannot roast the President of the
United States at the stake, or excom-
municate him from the church, or
drive him from the face of men as a
political outcast-at least they can,
On some public occasion, insult him.
81 do not know what the secret is.
This old fashion OF hatred is however
l believe, passing away. In old days
men nnever seemed to understand that
one could differ from them in matters
theological orin matters political un-
less they were lying about it.
II am very happy that it has been
shownthat thatfe feeling does notexist

old commonwealth il old Massachu-
setts OF ours.'' :

To Raise Palm. From Seeds.

To start palm seeds is an easy mat.
ter. Place half dozen seeds In n six
inch pot. covering them so they will be
about two inches below the surface.
They should then be well watered, and
the soil should be kept fairly moist con.
tinually until the little seedlings push
their way up. The soil should never he
allowed to dry out. nor should 1t be
kept sOggy. Another good plan is to
place all the seeds In box Of moist
sand and examine them every few
days. Those that burst and begin to
sDrout may be planted in fat boxes two
or three inches apart In n good. rich,
sandy soil. or they may be potted II
well started In small pots.
1t should be borne in mind that the
embryo. or seed. leaves OF palms are
usually entirely different in form from
the true, or character, leaves which
come later. In the embryo leaves the
form is long and narrow. swordlike and
usually with no divisions.-Robert Il.
