DAILY SHOCKS.
Earthquakes Have Continued
Nearly a Month in Utah.

Salt Lake, Utah, Dec. 6-Since November
II, when earthquake shook up southern
Utah and as far north as Salt Lake, there
have been daily shocks felt in the extreme
southeastern portion of the state. Ac-
cording to advices received from Pine
Valley, a hamlet, in the mountains of
Washington county, not day has passed
since that date that at least one earth
quake shock has not been felt, and ser
ious alarm is being felt for the safety of
the place. Every chimney in the town
has been badly cracked or completely
tumbled over. At Pinto the shocks have
been so severe that the public school has
been abandoned for several days. About
10 miles south are five or six old craters
and the continuance of the earthquake
shocks has strengthened the belief that
there has been a fresh outbreak of vol
canic activity in the mountains of that
region.

An Eastern
Fashion Authority Says:

ssBlack Taffetas are being used
to certain extent for separate
skirts, but the more fashionable
element of womankind is show
ing a preference for Peau de Sole
and Louisine. For the dressiest
styles of skirt, Crepe de Chine in
both black and white is a pro-
nounced favorite. These softer
silks lend themselves more read
ily to the latest ideas in skirt
shapes, in which the tendency is
toward the fuller and straighter
effects.
Satin Suede, or any similar
weave of highly finished silk, is
also a good material for the new
shaped skirts. In the softest
fabrics the skirt is very little
gored, the fulness being fitted
about the hips by the rows upon
rows of shirring, which is gradu-
ated so as to form a yoke effect,
or else it is confined by the hair
line tucks in the same region,
from whence it falls in straight
folds to the feet
These goods are on sale in our

THE NEW AGRICULTURE,

1t is quite like turning the pages OF
d book OF magic, says W. S. Har-
wood, writing on "The New Agricul.
ture" in Scribner's for June, to look
over the work in progress by the ex-
pertinent stations of the United
States, SO remarkable are the achieve.
ments OF these powerful adjuncts OF
modern agriculture.
Nearly a thousand trained men,
scientifically practical men, com
mand these stations. Most of them
are men who won their degrees by
dint of insistent and sane study; and
all OF them are picked men. The
national government SO values
these institutions that it gives nearly
$l 900, 900 each year for their main
tenance. They are OF large econo-
mic Importance, and are in immedi-
ate and constant touch with the
sources and the developing OF our
national wealth. In direct Increase
of this wealth they show marked re-
suits; Indirectly, their influence is
still more significant.
There are ffty-six Of these sta

while settlers cabin appears
between the tall trees, or an Indians
WigWam skirts the forests edge with
a copper face staring on you as you
pass. The evening OF the Fourth
was enjoyably spent at the pleasant
home OF Mr.. and Mrs. John Gielhaug
on the forest clad bank of the Rainy
Lake river. A beautiful supper was
served IN park-Iike opening be-
meath the tall forest trees where the
door OF evergreens added a soothing
freshness to the cool evening air.
Ihe remainder OF the evening was
enJoyably spent and all had a pleas
ant time. Mr.. and Mrs. Gieihaug
are richly endowed with that rare
art OF entertaining and making the
visitor feel at home. The cheerful
time we spent with them was highly
appreciated.
| AS our sojourn in this region was
OF necessity very limited many things
OF interest escaped our notice. A
few remarks about the country in
general from our own observation
might be of interest. The land all
through the region we ira versed is
very fertile with a black loan soil OF
clay substance in many places very
deep, and with clay subsoil. Very
little sand in the immediate vicinity
OF Rainy Lake river and no stones
were observed. Some swamps are
met with but the many small tribu-
taries afford good drainage facilities.
The forest fora vegetation is very
rank. and grass grows abundautly
in the low open places. On the cul
tivated land in the clearings, red
clover and timothy grew album
dainty with prospects for a heavy
crop. This is also rich berrying
country. Strawberries in particular
were in great abundance this year.
They thrive luxuriantly in the clear
ings. In the sandy localities blue
berries were abundant. The swamp
areas are often covered with deep
growth OF several species OF MOSES,
IN many instances forming peat de-
posits. When the forest is cleared
or destroyed by fire this moss
growth decays and forms a rich
loan soil. Here then is one of the
few remaining gifts Of fertile land
that Minnesota has to offer her set
tiers. A. M. j oHNsoN,

tions, embracing all the states and
territories, including Hawaii and
Alaska, and studies are being con-
Quoted in Porto Rico and the Philip
pines. The object of the stations is
not the prosecution OF study in an
academic sense, but the securing OF
practical results which may be Of
use to the farmer.
Here the soil OF unoccupied, even
barren, land is analysed, new cereals,
fruits and vegetables are produced,
diseases and insects which destroy
grains and fruit trees are examined
and remedies are sought to combat
them. Tests are also made OF foods
for stock, OF diary products, etc. In
short, all that concerns agriculture
engages the attention OF the govern
ment experts.
The progress in agriculture in the
last generation has been greater
than in all the generations that
have preceded. At the source OF
this progress has been a deeper
knowledge. This knowledge has
been made very largely possible
through agricultural education, and
the stations have taken a command
ing place in this education. 1t
would be quite impossible to esti-
mate the number of millions OF dol
lars which are accruing to the ma
tional wealth each year as direct
and indirect result OF the work OF
these stations, and it would be far
beyond the limits of conjecture to
say what they hold in store. They
stand among the colossal factors
that made for the progress Of the

ACCORDING to an opinion emanat

ACCORDING to an opinion emanat-
ing from the attorney gener-
ais office, in response to the
county attorney from Otter Tail
county, a voter at the primary
election is only entitled to the bal
lot OF the party with which he atfil-
lated at the previous election and
whose candidates he then supported.
In case Of first voter it is not nee
essary to disclose past affiliations.
For instance, men who voted the
democratic ticket two years ago
cannot vote a republican ticket at
the primaries until after they have
voted that ticket at the general
election, and in case vote is chal-
lenged, the voter must take oath
and swear to his former party affili-
alton before he is given a ballot
This puts a stop to the speculation
Of candidates that expect to capture
the nomination with the assistance
OF support from personal friends OF
the other side. At the primaries no
Democrat will be permitted to vote
for Republican and no Republican
to vote for Democrat.
