In the water until he is taught by his
mother to swim. She takes him into
the water daily on her fin and dumps
him in, and when he gets tired Of
foundering about places him on her
fin again and returns to her camp.
When the young seals are well grown,
they suddenly disappear with their
mothers and the bull seals. No one
knows where they 60, ard their return
is equally as sudden as their departure.
The bulls are the first to put in an ap-
pearance at the camping ground.
When they arrive, they commence at
once to prepare camp for their mates,
which they stake off, and for which
they fight until they die. In the mean
time the female seals remain quite a

The Time For Planting Bulbs.

There is no definite rule to be laid
down as to the length Of time in which
bulbs should be left in cold storage.
AS general thing. top growth will not
begin until root growth is completed
This nearly always takes from six
weeks to two months. 1t is therefore
generally safe to begin bringing Octo-
Der planted bulbs to the living room in
December. Those desired for later
Towering can be left in cold storage,
where they will remain dormant as to
top growth. By bringing bulbs to light
and warmth at intervals Of week or
ten days we secure a succession of
bloom which makes it possible for US to
brighten our windows with their beau
tiful flowers during the greater part Of
winter.-New Lippincott.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY.

New York, Nov. 25-The stock
market continued its upward tendency
today under the leadership of New
York Central. The higher rates OF
exchange establish the fact that ex-
ports of gold are over for the present.
The banks are in safe position, and
the feeling in financial circles is very
cheerful. There is talk of an in
creased dividend on l.. & N. and the
stock is being bought by insiders.
Manhattan and the fractions were
somewhat weak and sold off point on
moderate liquidation. The general
market should be bought on the breaks
for there is every indication that a big
boom will be under way before Janu-
airy. Amalgamated Copper sold below
so on liquidation by holders who have
become tired out. This stock Is a
purchase on every reaction.

THE WAY OF A TORNADO.

One That Was Remarkable Both In
Appearance and Action.
"a tornado that was remarkable both
in appearance and in action was one
that travelled from Texas across Okla
homa and Indian Territory in May,
1906" says Earl W. Mayo in Ainslee's.
"A man in Sherman, Okla, who had ex-
ceptional opportunities for observing
the storm, inasmuch as he was caught
up in it and carried several hundred
yards before descending to earth again,
is certain that it was not funnel
shaped. He says Of it:
"'It looked to me like great ball Of
vapor rolling over and over toward
me. When | first saw it distinctly, it
was at hill perhaps an eighth Of a
mile away. 1t seemed to be about $50
yards wide and 100 feet high. The mo-
ton was that of a ball rolling over and
over, not spiral, and it came on rather
slowly, perhaps thirty miles an hour.
Whatever the ball Of cloud struck was
lifted right Off the ground.
"1 saw it pick up house after house

seemed to be full of flying boards and
timbers. When the ball reached Mrs.
C.'s, the house nearest me, it went
straight up off its foundations. The
house remained intact until it was
about twenty or twenty-five feet from
the ground, then it burst open and the
fragments few in all directions. It
looked like an exploding bomb. The
corn and cotton standing a hundred
feet on either side Of the storms path
were uninjured, but whenever the
cloud struck the higher. ground it
spread out, covering wider strip Of
the surface. @ u ..5 =.5s,sss &..$ .$
"tNNhen the cloud struck me, went
up lightly and easily and the sensation
was not unpleasant, but came down
hard and was badly shaken up, al
though not seriously injured. On the
highway north of Sherman fence wires
were torn from the posts and pounded
into the hard surface of the road a dis
tance Of two or three inches !"

VALUABLE CLAYS

A SUPERIOR PRODUCT IN NORTH
DAKOTA FOR BRICK AND POT
Terry.
The following is issued by Director
G. M. Hall of the Agricultural College
at Fargo on the Economic Survey of
North Dakota:
ut has long been known that North
Dakota contains valuable deposits of
clays, and for several years there has
been an increasing demand for a bet
ter knowledge concerning the value of
these clays for brick making, pottery,
etc. Both chemical analysis and prac-
tical tests show that many of these
clays are suitable for the manufacture
OF high grade building and ornamental
material, fire brick, and even pottery
and cement. Each month there is an
increased number of samples sent in
for analysis or testing, many of which
we have had to refuse for lack of
facilities for this work.
ITO satisfy the demand made upon
the survey to investigate these prob
lems and to promote the development
of these important resources, arrange
ments have been completed in connec-
ton with the federal survey, whereby
practical tests will now be made with
all promising samples OF clay sent in
from our state.
'Fhose interested in any deposits Of
clay that may be of economic value
who may desire to have them tested,
should notify the director of the sur
vey, and they will receive full instruc-
tions for the securing and shipping of
samples, which will be tested during
the winter without expense ITO the own
ers."

INDIAN PRAIRIE DOG HUNTS
The Little Animals Are Deemed a
pafntT Dish by the NaVnioes.

The Little Animals Are Deemed a
Dainty Dish by the Navajoes.
The Navajo Indian, while he cannot
be prevailed upon to eat rabbit, is
greedily fond of fat prairie dogs. Large
communities of these small animals
abound on the western plains, and the
Navajo has resorted to many ingenious
methods for trapping his coveted dain-
ty. One Of them is by the aid of bi
Of mirror placed at the entrance to
burrow When the animal ventures
from his bedroom, deep under ground.
he sees a familiar image mocking him
at the front door. and he hurries out to
confront the impudent intruder, when
he is pinned to the ground with an ar
row.
But the most effective method is
what the Indians call the rain hunt. AS
soon as the steady downpour of sum-
mer rains begin every Navajo who can
walk repairs to the prairie dog village
with hoes, sharp sticks or any digging
implement. With these they hollow.
out trenches that will lead the storm
water into as many burrows as possi-
BILE. Soon a little stream is pouring
down each small home. and the inmate,
much disturbed, pops out to see what
the matter can be. Many of the ami
mails remain under ground until they
are drowned, and their bodies float to
the surface.
After such hunt, in which many
pounds of prairie dogs are generally
secured, there is feast for many days
in the Navajo huts.-New York Com
mercial Advertiser.

TELEGRAPHIC MARKET LETTER

Chicago, Nov. 25.-Wheat: Gables
We're Nc higher this morning. Our
market opened at about Saturdays
closing prices. There was very little
doing early, the interest being centered
in the corn and oats pits. Wheat on
passage increased only 100000 BUSH
els notwithstanding the large worlds
shipments. In spite of the big move
ment wheat is strong and a good de-
mand is in evidence. While corn and
oats have been buoyant wheat SEEM
ingly is neglected. Yet we look for
a, movement in the latter which will
be productive of greater profits than
corn has shown. The increase in the
visible supply shows over three mil
lion and this helps to keep the market
down for the present. Primary re-
ceipts were 100000 bushels larger than
a. year ago and the clearances continue
heavy, In face of the visible report
wheat showed extremely we'll indeed.
Corn opened Nc over Saturdays
close on higher cables. Tt gained
another 7lc selling to 641ac for May
and after meeting a loss of 1ac again
became strong and holds the advance
well. There has been good buying
today and it is still good. We feel as
safe at these prices as we did last week
when we advised the purchase of corn
around 62 cents. The visible shows
a good decrease, another factor that
helps the bulls.
Oats have also ruled strong today.
The small receipts have helped to keep
up prices and continuance of these
small receipts is going to put oats to
SOC a bushel.
Provisions have been strong and are
% to 30c higher than Saturday, with
a good demand for the whole list.

train in the curve just east of the Mis-
Sunday evening while returning from

being his duty to go over the section
every Sunday. The third man went
into the country from Mandan and the
either two started on the return trip.
They were met just this side of the
bridge by the wrecking train which
was running to Mandan before the be-
lated passenger should leave and in
endeavoring to remove the car from
the track Ehli was caught and hor-
ribly mangled by the engine. Both
legs were severed from the body, one
near the hip and the other near the
ankle, and the body, with the exception
of the face, disfgured beyond recogni-
tion. The coroner was notified and
the remains were brought to the city
and placed in the undertaking estab-
lishment of Webb Bros. where they

HENRY CLEWS' REVIEW


Under date OF Saturday the 23d inst.
the Henry clews' weekly financial re-
view letter contains the following in
relation to the new securities company
destined to control the Northern Pa
ciflc and Great Northern systems: /.
A fresh element in the market is
the position Of the new 400 million
dollar Northern Securities company.
I This project seems destined to meet
with active opposition from some of
the fifteen states through which the
component companies run. While it
appears to have escaped legal objec-
tions, it is considered by some author
ities as opposed to the intent of the
law, and is sure to awaken hostility in
parts of the west, where huge combin-
ations. are not so readily accepted or
understood as here. The plan also
contains elements Of weakness in its
financial structure, which must come
to the surface when earning power
meets the test of trade reaction. AS
to its effect upon other roads not in
&clalded In the system, and whether 1t
will provoke some sort OF counter
movement elsewhere, only the future
can determine For some time TO

ties will be a matter Of uncertainty III
