A WISE SCHEME.

Sheep men are much interested in
the scheme of Thomas Jones of On
tario, idaho who erected tents at his
lambing ground and placed new born
lambs therein during the nights fol-
lowing their birth. The tents were
heated by means of stoves, and SO
efficient was the plan that the in
crease of Jones flocks has been llj
per cent, although the neighboring
sheepmen lost heavily on account OF
cold nights. The scheme will be tried
on an extensive scale next year.

MAD DOS SCARE.

o. St. G. Chenery, who was in Min
neeawaukan Monday, says there was
great excitement there over a mad
dog. A canine went mad and bit
several other dogs. Citizens got busy
with their guns and there was gen.
eral killing of dogs. A number of
worthless ours were disposed of, and
SO the results from the scare are good
after all. No one was bitten by the
dogs, fortunately.

GREAT ACTIVITY M LANDS
EXCELLENT OUTLOOK FOR
LAND HOLDERS IN SOUTH
ERN STUTSMAN.

/. Willis Drummond, special agent
and field manager for the D. i. S.
Johnson Land Co., of St. Paul, has
returned from trip over the CON-
pany's land holdings in LaMoure and
Stutsman counties. Mr.. DrummOnd
says that with the construction of
the new N. P. extension from n ear
Edgeley, northwest toward Bloomen-
field in Stutsman county, a new lot Of
actual settlers will be located in this
and LaMoure counties. The johnson
company expects to sell their lands
only to actual settlers and depend on
the future rise in values to make the
profits which the first sales are not
expected to bring. The policy ci the
company is to avoid selling to specu-
lators. The company has some fine
farm lands in Stutsman and LaM0ure
counties which the new extension
will make very desirable on account
of the convenient transportation
which will be afforded.
a large party of land seekers from
Illinois has been looking over the
lands west of Sharlow, and returned
via Edgeley, well pleased with the
outlook. Some of the best lands in
this county lie just east of the range
Of hills. A large settlement will be
found in that part of the county if
the present plans of land owners are
carried out.
Mr.. Drummond is enthusiastic over
the quality and desirability of the
lands in that part Of the county. He
has made several personal visits to
the locality and gone over the ground
thoroughly and says there is no bet
ter land in the county, that it lies
level, on high plateau, and the soil
is all that is needed to make farming
and stock raiisng success. He pre-.
diets a substantial increase in land
values in short time. The fortu-
nate land owners who have for many
years, held on to their property in
the southern part of this county and
northern LaMoure county will be re-
warded by their perseverance in get
ting neighbOrs and transportation
privileges and seeing their acres ad-
Yanced in values.

After leaving the state of North
Dakota in December. on our trip to
Maine, via. Washington and New
York, in which cities we tarried a
few days, we passed the remainder
of the winter and the spring months
in the quiet old home town of Farm
ington.
Situated IN the western center of
the state in the beautiful valley of
the Sandy River, and surrounded by
the not far distant mountains and
wooded hills, Pennington is account
ed one Of the prettiest villages in
New England.
{. 1t is a school town containing the
Oldest and most popular normal
school. also the celebrated "Little
Blue School," boarding school for
boys founded by Rev. Samuel Abbott,
an uncle of DR.. Lyman Abbott. the
celebrated writer and former Brook
lyn pastor. There is a large public
school and a fine public library built
OF Maine granite costing some twenty
thousand dollars, the gift of the Cut
ter's former residents of the town.
There are no manufactures except
box and novelty shop said to be the
largest of its kind in the world, en-
ploying three to four hundred hands
and turning out pill boxes by the
thousands and all kinds of novelties.
The climate here is not so severely
cold as in the same latitude in the
west, but is fully as variable with
some cry cold days and sometimes
deep SHOWS. Spring months have
since March been without rain, so
now June lst it is the dryest ever
known at this time of the year.
This is great corn canning section
but corn planted three weeks is not
yet sprouted. and the prospect for a
heavy crop is the worst ever known.
Farmers are badly discouraged. Ap-
pies and other fruit trees blossom ed
very full and promise well if the
drought does not cause blighting.
We have six churches, pretty well
attended except in Fishing season.
when large portion of the citizens
take ride to the nearby ponds and
sporting camps to try their luck in
fishing for salmon with which the
ponds are well stocked.
There are three terms Of the court
here. At the February term there
was only one civil action tried, but
there were l8 divorces and about a
dozen violations of the prohibition
law. The people here are mostly of
the Yankee blood, descendants of the
early settlers with a mixture Of
French from Canada. The French
are very good citizens and orderly, no
divorces. The full blooded Ameri-
cans seem in these later years to have
changed the ancient maxim, "marry
in haste and repent at your leisure''
to ''marry late and divorce early.''
Perhaps have written enough on
Pennington. In a future letter I
will try and interest the school boys
and girls by school description of
ancient Plymouth the Pilgrim Faith
ers and Plymouth Rock.

WILL TRANSFER FUNDS.

Bismarck Tribune: 1t seems that
there is a deficiency of about $40, 600
in the building fund for the school
for the feeble minded at Grafton and
the board is asked to transfer this
sum from the maintenance fund. In
asmuch as the institution cannot be
opened for some time it is thought
this sum can be transferred without
in any way crippling the mainten-
ance.

near Edgeley northwest to a point in
Stutsman comfy, will be constructed
this year, and, in fact, work has al
ready been commenced by the con-
tractors and the contracts for grading
80 miles have been let. The right-Of-
way has been secured and there will
be two stations on the line, one on
l7-135-65 in LaMoure county and the
other at the end of the line in.~Stuts-
man county, said to be on 33-l37-67.
A siding will also be placed near the
Sykes ranch in Lam oure county, in
1866. West Of the end of the line
the road survey is almost straight to
Dawson, on the main line, but the
best information is that the extension
will stop at the above named point
in Stutsman county, and will not be
extended or completed for several
years, and, it is believed by many,
not at all, at least not until further
moves on the railway checker board
made by other lines are seen.
The extension will not be built in
to the town of Edgeley at all but will
connect with the N. P. line about
two miles east of Edgeley leaving the
town out entirely. The connection
will strike the N. P. Edgeley branch
about half way between Edgeley and
MedfOrd, the first station east of
Edgeley.
There is good farm and grazing
land all the way along the extension
which is expected to develope and
create great deal of new business
I for the N. land take portion of
the business which the Milwaukee
line has teen getting from that COM
pany. The rough hill land lies vest
Of tine survey for the extension and
the hills are not struck until the
survey passes west of Bloomentield.
1t is expected that the line will ie
completed for businesst his fall. The
N. P. company have authorized land
companies in St. Paul to indicate the
route of the extension on maps and
make arrangements for the sale of
lands with the assurance that the
construction of the line will be push
ed with the greatest speed possible.
The fact that the main line will
not be reached this year and that it
is doubtful if the extension ever is
made to Dawson will have reassur-
ing effect on some persons and prop
erty owners here, who have gained
the impression that the cxtensionwiil
take good deal of business from this
town by the possibility of making
the present main line 'sside track"
and the running of through trains
over the extension south. It is
known that nothing would be gained
in distance to the twin cities by this
plan and the fact that the n. p. is
preparing to put in the block signal
system on the main line between
Jamestown and Fargo shows that
this heavy expense would not be in
Cured it the main line was to be the
side track or the Edgeley extension
continued to Dawson. In fact the
new line will bring more settlers to
the county and increase the values of
taxable property great deal and If
Jamestown people are alive to their
interests and advantages they can Sc.
cure good deal Of the new trade
which the line will bring.
