Campaign Against Church Fairs.

The Catholic priests of Denver are
organizing a campaign to totally an
initiate church fairs. Every attempt
but causes the pastors to become more
discouraged and dissatisfied with the
project. and now, under the guidance
of Rev Edward Barry of the Sacred
Heart church, a campaign is to be
launched having for its object the es-
adjustment of a fixed source of reve-
rue, which viii do away with the ba-
z&ar. Father Barry is to call a meet
ing of his prominent parishioners in
the near future and ask for sugges-
tons on establishing a sort Of tithins
system, which will guarantee the
church fixed way of meeting current
expenses. Other pastors have taken
the matter up and it may be that the
last church fair has passed into his
tory.

Minneapolis, Nov. 1.-THE wheat mar
ket has been active but very irregular
today, full of strong spots and weak
ones. Cables mixed; Paris unchanged,
Liverpool Hs lower. The late declines
have brought about heavy sales for ex-
port, thirty loads yesterday and as much
more today. Receipts about 100000
bushels under year ago. Shipments
72S,0OO bushels against $4,000. Clear
ances $4,000. There has been good buy
ing today ON the theory that the severe
liquidation during the last two days
has placed the market in an excellent
position for sharp upturn and the
tendency of prices is to improve from
this level. The close tonight from quar-
ter to rs under yesterday we said before,
any further declines will likely prove
only temporary and holders should aver
age lines accepting fair profits for the
present.

INSANITY FROZEN OUT.

From Wednesdays Daily.
Arthur E. Walrath of North Mankato,
who used to be night guard at the
insane hospital at st. Peter, tells Pc
euliar experience he had there about
twenty years ago. A young Swede by the
name of Andrew Paulson who had come
from his Chicago home to st. Paul in
a fruitless search for work, lost his
mind, presumably over worry at his
non-success, and was committed to the
st. Peter asylum. Here the keepers were
accustomed to give him along with other
inmates daily exercise at saving wood.
He was mild and docile, his chief pecu-
liarities being that he never said word
to anybody and whenever his wife came
to see him he would put her
wraps out between the bars of his
cell. 1t happened one day during Sc
we're cold spell in December that while
out in the yard at the woodpile he gave
his keeper the slip and wandered off into
the country without hat or overcoat. A
search for him was Immediately COM
menced but proved fruitless. About a
week later Paulson, who had been beg
ging his way from farm to farm, sleep
ing in straw stacks or any other available
place, returned to the asylum early in
the morning and knocked for admission.
Mr.. Walrath, who admitted the man.,
was astonished to hear him talk ra-
tionally. Indeed it seemed as if the in
sanity had been literally frozen out of
him. The man had made his way as far
as New Sweden before his reason re-
turned and he started on his trip back
to st. Peter. His ears and fingers were
somewhat frozen but these were success
fully doctored and the man returned to
Chicago.

DREDGING MACHINE.
From Wednesdays Daily.


W. 81. Tidland will go to st. James to-
morrow to examine a dredging machine
in operation on county bitches in the Vi
cinity of that city with a view to having
q similar article constructed next spring
for his own ditch work in Blue Earth
county. Mr.. Tidland holds the county
contract for the construction of two big
ditch systems, and consisting of seven
mile ditch running from point near
Minnesota lake northeast to the Cobb
river and connected with several miles
of tributary bitches, and the other run
ming from Mapleton four miles northeast
and also emptying into the Cobb river.
The bitches are to vary in depth from
three to ten feet according to the lay OF
the land and will have an average width
of twenty -four feet at the top, the two
sides gently sloping and meeting at the
bottom.
Mr.. Tidland finds it absolutely neces-
sary to have the steam dredge in order
to fulfill the contract he has undertaken,
it being impossible to use teams and
wagons in the low, soft, swampy ground
through which the bitches are to
pass. The adjacent farm owners are in
the greatest hurry to have these bitches
constructed and are deluging Mr.. It'd
land with petitions to get to work at
them.
Mr.. Tidland expects to see a great deal
of ditch digging in Blue Earth county
in the near future The rainy season
through which this part of the country
has passed and the consequent wretched
crops in the low and moist places has
taught the farmers the value of such
canals for the drainage of their land.
There is no danger of getting the land
too dry, he says. Swamps never doing
any good towards moistening higher
places. Seldom have the farmers ever
lost by dryness anyhow, what they have
lost in quantity in the dry seasons be-
ing almost invariably compensated for
by the fine quality of their products.

James Olson of Walnut Grove was in

that he had lost in Texas oil stock. He
made some remarkable statements, that

that he had been employed by the Stan
dard Oil company to pump salt water
into the wells in the Beaumont district,
and that the same company had tried to
blow him up.

ALONG THE RURAL ROUTES.

A sunfower sucks up l45 pounds of
water during its growth.
If mosquitoes were of any use just
think of how many things would happen
to the crop.
Spray the chicken house with a strong
solution of alum and water to kill lice.
Don't fuss because you can't move
your grain. Many farmers would be
glad to have the grain.
Open the parlor windows and live
all over the house. You will enjoy the
neighbours call better and he will think
more of you.
Don't bank too much on the work.
you are going to do. Plunge ahead right
now, for it is the work you have done
to-day that counts.
There are 700 acres of sunfower
farms in central and eastern Russia
and $50 mills which press out 100000
600 pounds of sunfower oil every year.
Don't have your hen house ventilated
at the top. Hot air rises and goes out
here, while the cold air falls on the
heads of the fowls and Group results.
The Mississippi valley is 1890 miles
wide in its widest part, between the
Alleghanies and the Rocky mountains,
its length is 1000 miles and its area
l,250,00O square miles.
The Mississippi river carries yearly
to the Gulf of Mexico thirteen million
tons or more of refuse, and it would
take but days portion of this burden
to convert an ordinary lake into broad
meadow lands.
Now the farmers of New York are
complaining that their crops are going
to waste because it is impossible to
hire help. Presently it will be necessary
for the government to offer a bounty
for every farm hand who can be cap
tured.
1t is asserted in the department of
agriculture that cassava will make the
Southern States great stock-raising
country, slab sided cows from the pine
forests which were fed on cassava more
than doubled their weight in seventy
five days.
There is a permanent farmers insti-
tute organization in every county in
Illinois. The state appropriates annu-
ally $3.50 for county Institutes, being
$75 for each county. Also, $4,000 for
the state organization; $500 of this
is used for the equipment of free trav-
cling libraries for use in the rural dist
riots; the balance for general ex-
penses.
As soon as a driver sees the dispo-
sition to run in the horse he is driving,
let him begin the rapid jerking first on
one line and then on the other, not gent
ly, but with such force as to bring the
bridle-bit from one side to the other
through the horses mouth. The new
motion so confuses the animal that all
other fear is taken away.

heels as delicately padded as quilt of
swansdown, will pass away from the
