SpeltH as q Stock Feed

Prof. Henry, Of the Wisconsin ex-
pertinent station, does not consider
that speltz. or emmer, will ever be a
popular feed in Wisconsin, or any
state that is similar to the Badger
state. One great advantage of speltz
is that it is a grain that will endure
considerably dry weather, and Is thus
well fitted for South Dakota, where
it is grown to considerable extent. In
any dry country there seems little
doubt but what speltz will be popular
and probably deservedly so. Expert
ments that have been conducted at the
South Dakota station seem to indicate
that speltz has, bushel for bushe1,
about two-thirds the feeding value of
barley, to which 1t is often compared

THE EVER CHANGING RIVER.
Constant Difficulties In Navigating the
Mighty Missouri.

There is Latin expression, semped
idem, which means always the same,
but the Missouri river didn't study
Latin, nor is it observing its teachings.
1t is so changeable that steamboat
captains who have been up and down
the river at intervals Of every few
years since this country was settled,
know very little about 1t. They even
have to guess when they point out
the old boat landings. A reporter went
to st. Joe on the steamer City of St..
Joe leaving here at 6:15 a. M, and ar
irving there at p. III. The trip could
have been made in much shorter time
had the pilot been sure of the river,
but he had to pick out the channel.
His judgmunt was good, as a rule, but
be got ON two or three bars, and had
to back off.
Perrin Kay, chief engineer of the
boat, has been on the river since the
sos, and is an interesting character
He was engineer of a transfer boat
at Atchison for three years, Immediately
before the building of the bridge, and
made frequent trips up and down the
river before that time. He ran through
the Indian Channel, above Doniphan,
where so many boats were sunk in the
the days of river traffic. The channel
was cut off by big curve known as
Smiths Bend. The Government re
cord shows that four boats went down
in that locality, as follows: Potomac,
April 10, 1852; Delaware, 1857; Sully,
1869; Violo Belle, 1871. The Potomac
was an immigrant boat. It has been
covered by the shifting of the river.
Kay says he saw her shaft sticking up
in 1859. ''She lays over there under
that wheat field" be said to the re
porter pointing to the Kansas shore.
1t is hard to realize that Doniphan,
once on the Missouri, Is now separated
from it by nearly three miles of bot
tom land, much of which is in wheat
this year. Since the settlement OF this
country the Missouri has covered about
all the territory between Doniphan and
Rushville.-AtchisOn (Kan.l Globe.

THE END OF GERMANY.
German Prophets Predict Something
Shocking Will Happen Soon.

|
Within the last week or two mum
Der of prophets have sprung mp in Ger
many, and a feeling of superstition has
arisen there which no of1icialism hal
been competent to quell. The move
ment has taken place mainly in th'
South, and from all quarters come
rumors of coming wars and of the
downfall of Germany.
1t is difficult to say how the rumorl
have originated or who has started
them, but they have become so general
that the Kaiser has actually been tax
ing steps to try to repress the supers-
tition of his people-steps which have
been attended, naturally enough, with
very small success, for superstition il
not thing that Can be controlled by
law.
In the northern provinces folk are
whispering the famous prophecy of
the monk Hepnin, who, several cen.
turies ago, announced that one day the
Hohenzollern dynasty would be re-es-
tablished, but that the third Emperor
OF the great family would come to a
violent end and that the dynasty would
fall with him. The Kaiser, it is said,
dislikes to have Hennin's prophecy
mentioned, and it is certain that the
official papers have lately been pub
fishing articles, in which pains are tax
en- to prove that the latter portion
which points to the Kaiser's violent
end was unauthentic.
In Suabia itinerant singers go about
singing the prophecy of st. Ingebert,
a nun who is said to have had COM
munion with spirits, and whose proph-
ecies have until now cometrue. "When
Germany is at all It's greatest, said st.
Ingebert, "the fall will come. l see
rivers of blood in all the German
valleys. and COssack horses drinking
in the waters of the Elbe and of the
Rhine" In Bavaria professor of the
University of Wurzburg has just re
turned from Italy with prophecy of
woman called Rosa COLUMBIA, who died
in 1887. She was an ignorant peasant
woman of Taggia, a little village in the
Riviera, but she correctly predicted
the fall of Louis Philippe, the defeat
and exile of Charles Albert of Sardinia,
The restoration of Pope Plus TX. "by a
Napoleon, the defeat of Austria. and
the re establishment of the kingdom
of Italy. Rosa COLUMBIA predicted one
hing more. She announced another
italian revolution, and at the same
lime great European war, during
which 'the Russian soldiers will put
lp their horses in the church adjoin-
ng the convent at Taggia."
Of course, many people will smile at
5hese prophecies, and yet one cannot
1elp remembering that France was
)verrun with supernatural stories dur
ng the year which preceded the
Franco German war.

VIRGINIA is AMONG THE
FIRST IN SHIPBUILD DING,
She Has Advanced to First Place In
Amount of Capital Invested;
Third in Wages Paid.

During the last decade Virginia has
| advanced from position of compare
lively small Importance to place among
the leading shipbuilding States. In
1900 this State was first in the amount
| OF capital invested, third in the num-
Der of wage-earners and in wages paid,
and fourth in the value of products.
Its capital invested In shipbuilding has
increased from less than a third of a
million in 1899 to nearly fifteen mil
lions in 1900, and is two and one-third
times as great as the entire capital in
vested in the industry of New Eng
land; more than double the entire capi-
tai so invested on the Pacific coast, and
almost equal to the entire amount of
capital invested in shipbuilding on the
lakes. When the prolific development
In the shipbuilding industry upon the
great lakes-a development that has
challenged the attention of the entire
shipbuilding world for more than de-
cadets taken into consideration, this
comparison seems to indicate the
future development and Importance
of Virginia as a great shipbuilding
centre.
In Virginia there was an increase
of 4.671 per cent. in the capital invest
ed in 1900 over 1880; 2.270.6 per cent.
in the number of wage-earners; 2.715
per cent. in wages paid: 3.4I6.S per
cent. in the cost of materials used, and
1851 per cent. in the value of pro-
ducts.
The report says it is probable that the
contest for supremacy in shipbuilding
during the next decade will be between
the Delaware river and Chesapeake
Bay districts.

WILL STREET BE DOWNED?

TYHE Red Lake Falls Gazette, in

|of DR.. N. NJ. Watson for that
position, says
NV. il. Street, Of Bemidii, will
be the chief candidate against
DR.. Watson for the nomination.
Street has opposition in his
home county, and while he will
prove a formidable vote getter,
we look for victory for Watson.
The Gazette evidently is labor
ing under a delusion. Street
has no enemiesin his home coun-

Beltrami county; who in his
official capacity as county attor-
ney collected over $4,000 back
taxes from the pine barons; and
who now is the ideal Of Beltrami
county voters for the position Of
state senator.
Bro. Kaufer has also overlooked
the fact that neither Norman nor
Red Lake county will so solid
for Watson, and that the possible
votes for Street in the above
counties, together with the
