FARM MACHINERY
EXHIBIT A FEATURE

The farm machinery exhibit has al
ways been big feature at the Mime
sofa state fair, but never has the show
approached, even in a remote degree,
the 1903 display.
The splendid new machinery pa
vilion is no doubt responsible for the
remarkable show made this year, but
in part only, for many new firms have
erected smaller buildings for their In
dividual uses, and the displays made
in the field and under tents greatly
exceed in number and variety of ma
chimes and appliances shown the eff
forts of any former years.
There are in all 140 exhibitors of
farm machinery A majority of them
are manufacturers or large jobbers,
and the number of exhibits runs far
up into the thousands. day could
be spent in a tour of the machinery
section, and then many things, curious
and interesting to the city man, as
well as the farmer, would remain I'M
seen.
The exhibits range in size from the
potato parer to the giant separators
and traction engines. There are ma
chimes or appliances for expediting or
Tightening the work of the farmer and
farm wife in every one of their mani
fold labors. The little family dish
washing machine, for the overworked
housewife, vies with the four horse
corn harvester, the gang plows and the
big threshing machines; fruit presses,
with hay balers, and labor saving
churns, with silos big enough for
large stock or dairy farm.

tempt on the life of the groom. For a
week he had been morose, and had
been determined in his opposition to
the marriage. Only few days ago he
attempted to secure the consent of his
sister to an indefinite zpostponement of
the wedding, and when she refused he
declined to attend the ceremony.
The guests were so interested in the
ceremony that they failed to notice the
entrance of young Marshall to the
room. The minister was directly in
line with the first bullet, and it whizzed
past his head. while the second, which
had evidently been aimed at the bride,
went wide, and struck vase of flow
ers. Marshall ran to the back of the
house, accosted a servant to learn the
result of the shooting, and was dis
appointed when told that both bride
and groom had escaped injury. He
managed to make good his escape.
Mrs. Marshall stated that it was her
opinion that the son was "out of his
mind" and for this reason she stated
that she would not ask for his arrest.

Occasionally name and address is

in the affirmative-for the map he dis

A Minneapolis firm is giving away
samples of face powder to the women,
and it is fact worthy of comment that
the majority of women who emerge
from the building invariably dab their

GRAND FORKS. N. D., Sept 2-There
has been a good deal of discussion on the
question of calling an extra session of the
legislation to provide for the needs of the
institutions during the interim before the
regular session. The recent decision of
the supreme court invalidating the $3.50, coo
worth of bonds which It was proposed to
sell on the security of the institution lands
has left many of the institutions in pre-
dicament. The trouble is not as to their
current expenses, as these are provided
for; but improvements We're made prior
to any action on the part OF the legisla-
ture. The trustees have in this manner
contracted debts aggregating quite a sum-
and they have secured the money which
they needed by issuing warrants which

other institutions more or less.
The governor has stated that there is
IN the treasury about 100000 in excess
or the requirements of the state, and that
by year from next March there will be
enough excess to permit the appropriation
altogether of abouts $500. 900 to relieve the
pressure at the universities.
There Is some objection to the holding
OF the session. and it has been suggested
that the needs of the Institutions be cared

An Interesting True Tale of Feedin

An Interesting True Tale of Feeding.
A bright young woman of Coin, Iowa,
who keeps her eyes open tells an inter
esting and true story of her chums ex-
perience with food.
She says: "She had nervous dyspep-
STA for several years and when an at
tack came on she would go to physi-
clan and get some relief up to last year
when she had the Grip which left her
very weak and then her stomach COL
lapsed and refused to retain anything
but the very simplest foods. Soon she
could not eat even those and for seven
days she had no nourishment but raw
egg and milk and she was told by a
physician that change of air and
scene might restore her to partial
health, but she would never again be
we'll and would probably die of con-
sumption of the bowels.
She always complained of terrible
distress after eating which was soon
followed by vomiting, yet she was so
hungry all the time that she would
try to eat. One day she read an article
about Grape-Nuts and asked her faith
er to get some and he went out and
bought a package. She took a table,
spoonful moistened. with a little milk.
and to everyone's surprise there was
absolutely no pain or trouble in her
stomach after eating it.
After a couple Of hours she called
for some more Grape-Nuts and this
time the amount was doubled and soon
after eating it she fell into a sound,
natural sleep, sleeping for several
hours, something she had not done
since her Illness without the aid of
morphine. She continued to use Grape
Nuts alone for one week improving
rapidly all the time and then began to
increase her diet as her returning
strength and appetite made this pos
sible.

first commenced the use of Grape

Tribute to Ramsey
Mr. Durant, in his opening address
yesterday, referred to the excellent
work the late Alexander Ramsey had
done toward the upbuilding of Mime
sofa.
The state owes much of its present
prominence to his efforts" said Mr..
Durant. This is the first time the
territorial pioneers of Minnesota have
met in the log cabin during the state
fair without him, and today, more than
at any time since his death, are we
filled with sense of his loss.''
Mr.. Durant introduced H. r. Wells,
of Preston, who gave a brief account Of
the states early efforts to supply edu-
cational facilities. Mr. Wells said he
remembered going with his father in
1857 to vote for the state constitution.
They walked four miles to vote and
when they got there one voted for and
one against the constitution.
Following Mr.. Wells, A. L. Larpen-
teur INDUCED in a few "reminiscences
and ex-Congressman GiIfllan also
spoke briefly. Following the meeting
number of the pioneers visited the
Jean Martin Brown home.
Among those who came to Minnesota
before 1850 and who registered at the
log cabin yesterday were: Edwin
Patch, who came here in 1S47, and who
was postmaster at st. Anthony under
