investigate live stock rates between
Chicago and the Missouri river.
The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
has ordered ITO passenger cars.
The Wisconsin Central has placed

teen feet six inches long. The tank
capacity will be 5000 gallons, and the
coal capacity twelve tons. The loco
motives will be made at the Brooks

The Western Car Service association
has adopted a rule reducing the free
time on coal to five days. Three days
will be allowed for storage and recon-
signment, and two for unloading.
Heretofore three days have been al
lowed for storage, two for reconsign-

THE BUSINESS OF FARMING.

There are many people under the
impression that the number Of farm
| ers In the country exceed that in all
| other occupations. They are misled
by glancing over the vast expanse Of
| territory embraced in the forty five
| states and territories, and in being led
| to believe that such territory is pretty
| generally occupied. In this way they
| enormously reach the conclusion as
above stated. The fact is, however,
that the number engaged in farming,
| including, of course, kindred pursuits,
| all going under the name of agricul-
ture, is about ten and a half millions,
while the number employed in all 9TH
er industrial occupations is nearly
eight and a half millions more. And
as to the great body of the land which
is sometimes thought to be so thiclzly
| settled there is, after all, but one-third
ture. There are in the United States
5,739,657 farms, and the value of these
farms, including improvements, stock
and implements, is $20,514, 001,838. The
| farms have grown four-fold in number
in the past fifty years, and the value
| of the farming land today is five times
| as great as was the price it was sold
for fifty years ago.
According to the farmers balance
sheet for 1902, more than 100000
farms have been laid out and fenced in
by settlers, principally in the West,
in the past ten years. During the year
1901 $4,000 farms were given away by
the government When the Indian
Territory is opened for settlement,
which will probably be about two
years sometime in 1904-S,000,-
900 acres of good land will be offered
for sale at low price. There are now
in this country $685. 900 acres of
land unoccupied and awaiting settle
ment.
The number Of acres used for farm
ing purposes is S41 100000. This would
make a country as large as England,
Ireland, Scotland, Wales, France, Ger
many, Austria, Spain, Japan and the
Transvaal combined, and enough
would be left over to make several
countries which until a few years ago
were considered of sufficient impor-
tant to be styled principalities or king
doms. And besides these somewhat
startling computations ther is not
one of the countries named in the
above list that would be able to pro-
duce anywhere near as large an
amount of agricultural produce as
that produced in the United States
from one-third of our area. The value
Of such products was in 1901 1851, $685.

friend who suffered four years from
severe sick headaches lasting for sew
eral days at time, who said that since
using Postum Coffee she had been en-
tirely free from an attack. I found
that by making Postum according to
directions it was equal to coffee in
flavor.
It is now six months since I began
drinking Postum, and I have gained
eighteen pounds in weight. 1t has built
me up and I feel like a new person.

Finger Crushed in Wrinqer.

A wash wringer may be the cause Of
little Arthur Ali losing the index
finger of his left hand. Arthur, who is
three years of age and the son of Rev.

squeezed his finger between the rolls.
The finger was crushed before the
boys mother could extract it from the

dressed the injury. He says he may
have to amputate the finger, but hopes
that the operation will not be neces-
sary. Arthur lives with his parents at

DASHBOARD AND INJURED
E. r. Speer Meets With Accident on
Country Road,


While driving north of the city last
night Edgerton r. Speer, q painter,
employed by the Northern Pacific rail-
road, was thrown from his buggy and
seriously injured. The wheels of the
rig passed over his body, bruising and
decorating his flesh, but no bones were
broken.
Speer, accompanied by another
painter named o. O. Wright, were
driving at a fast clip when one of the
wheels caught in hole in the road.
The buggy came to sudden stop,
throwing Speer over the dashboard.
Wright was not thrown from the rig.
AS soon as Speer landed on the
ground the horse made a quick start,
pulling the buggy from out the hole
Speer had fallen directly in It's track
and both wheels passed over him.
Speer was picked up unconscious
and removed to the house of farmer
Later he was taken to his home, lib

and the injuries dressed.
He received a deep scalp wound and
a large piece Of flesh torn from his
right leg four inches above the ankle.
His left ankle was sprained and his
right arm bruised. His face and hand
were scratched. 1t will be at least
three weeks before Speer is able to
leave the house. Wright was not in

CUT THE WEEDS.

1t is remarkable and is beyond ex-
PLANTATION why so many farmers fail
to cut weeds along the fence rows. 1t
is probably due to the belief that there
is no gain in it and nothing will be
done in which there is no gain. When
a man plows, sows and reaps he can
see some profit, but he can see no prof.
it in moving the weeds along the high
way. 1t will pay to NOW the weeds
along the fences as well as along the
roadsides. There is pay that is hard
to realize and yet it pays.
The railroads have great gangs Of
men at this season Of the year cutting
the grass and weeds along the right of
way of their roads. These corpora
tions know that it pays them to do
this or they would not go to the ex-
pense of doing it. Why not the farm
er? When farms are managed with
that business management that is
found in railroad corporations, then
there will be a revolution indeed.

Rev. J. M. Fulton, the new pastor of
the Central Presbyterian church, was
welcomed by large audiences at both
the morning. and evening services yes
terday, despite the unpleasant weather.
In the afternoon a meeting of the
church trustees was held at o'clock
and the new pastor cordially welcomed
by the church officials.
AT the evening service Rev. Fulton
took for his text Revelations lib:
"Antipas my witness, my faithful one,
who was killed among these where
Satan dwelleth."
He said in part:
"Antipas was man about whom
little is known. For this reason it is
possible to speak better about him.
There is not much about him in the
scriptures except the verse which John
was directed to write concerning him.
He lived in PergamuS, wicked city.
Christ came from Nazareth and good
things can come from any place. Anti
pas was a witness for Christ and a
faithful servitor on whom Christ could
count. He was a martyr. Pergamus
did not like Christianity and he was
! told he must hold his tongue or die.
Christ Demands Martyrs.
"This gives us two thoughts. Christ
demands the martyr spirit God does
not forget his martyrs. 1t is a strange
thing that Christ allows his people to
suffer. 1t is not unlikely that Antipas
thought of the three in the fiery fur
mace, Joseph in prison. Perhaps he eX-
pected God to give him his release.
People nowadays, when the cup Of
happiness is dashed from their lips,
look with fearful eyes toward where
God dwells asking themselves: What
do these things mean" 1t is best to
leave this to the great day when Anti
pas will receive his reward.

and sought Him. He struck with his

A CRITICAL PERIOD.

The Dakota farmer says they are
now approaching a critical time in the
year. See that your cows are provid-
ed with an abundance of feed. If you
let them shrink in their milk now you
cannot bring them back again when
the pastures become bare or dried up.
A small allowance of grain should be
supplied. When grass is green and
succulent it will digest almost as fast
as eaten, but when it becomes old ii
takes much longer, as it has first to be
softened by the fluids of the stomach.
Hence the COW will need some grain
to help furnish sufficient nutriment to
keep up the flow of the milk

In dry falls the soil forms an ideal

In moist seasons like the present, how

which remain wet after the tops have
died away the tubers have strong
tendency to rot instead of curing,

for the present season the sooner the
potatoes are harvested, the better.
