It Ma kes a Difference Who
Says It.

FROM a recent publication we
quote this:
ut must not be forgotten that
our railroads are the arteries
through which the life blood Of
this nation flows. Nothing could
be more foolish than the enact.
ment of legislation which would
unnecessarily Interfere with the
development and operation Of
these commercial agencies. !"
Were any Minnesota states
man to utter this sentiment he
would be promptly branded by a
large portion of the republican
press Of the state as possesses
of railroad leaning, as a man MOI
of the RooseVeltian type, as a
man unsafe to be entrusted with
service for the state. Yet these
words are the words Of President
Roosevelt himself and they are
found in one of his messages to
Congress.
The truth is that Roosevelt is a
just man and while he desires re
form in the matter of railway
rates he wishes at the same time
to be fair to the railroads. A
good share Of our Minnesota
press in discussing these mat
tiers, however, are merely dema.
gogues.

LOCUSTS RAvAoE THE WHEAT.
Many Fields Swarm with I7-Yea- De-
stroyers of Vegetation.

The 17-year locust has appeared in
some parts of the country and is doing
a great deal of damage TO the wheat
fields. orchards and forest trees. Ac-
cording to their peculiar habit they come
in the night to the surface of the ground
from their subterranean cayerns, where
they have been maturing and slumbering
for the last seventeen years. The ground
beneath the trees is perforated like an
immense colander with the holes from
which they emerged.
Soon after emerging from the ground
the locusts she'd their underground over
coats, leaving the trunks of the trees
studded with the dry and brittle garment
of yellowish hue. Scientists say the eggs
from which this brood was Matched were
laid on the leaves of the trees seventeen
years ago. The eggs remained where
they were deposited for three years, when
the cicadas were Matched and the new
born insect burrowed downward into the
ground. Here, beside the roots of trees,
the insects dwelt until this year, when
they sailed forth in numberless quanti-
ties, driving the farmer almost to ruin
in their ravages.
The locusts after flying about for q
few days. feeding on the vegetation, at
tach themselves to the under side of the
leaves on the trees. Here the female
deposits her eggs.
The cicadas have three deadly enc
mics in this country-the despised Eng
lish sparrow. digger wasp and the ants.
At present the innumerable locusts are
filling the air with their sonorous, monot-
onous and doleful song. The farmers
are spraying their orchards with prepar-
ed mixture of kerosene. Out on the prai-
RE farms the insects threaten destruc-
ton to the growing crop.
The sparrows have come in countless
thousands to the aid of. the Farmer. Rob-
ms and wild birds find the locust palat-
able eating. The sparrows' method Of
attracting the locust is to wait on the
ground for the locust to appear above
the ground, when he greedily gobbles him
up before he gets time to sing his dying
song.

~ satisfactory exhibit. Less
hindrance was felt in local deliveries,
the distribution of leading commodi-
ties remained of large volume and
new demands upon producers were

ing from South to North.

Not even the worlds fair nor conven-
ton excursion trains take precedence
over the long strings of palace stock
cars rushing from south TO north this
month, that the largest shipment of
Texas cattle in the history Of the West
may be deposited on the range country
west of the Missouri river. Within 80
days 100 such trains will have passed
through Sioux City, and from 10000 to
100000 southern cattle will be partak-
ing of the most luxuriant range grasses
which many years have produced. Next
year at this time these same cattle will
be sent to the markets of the world. This
stupendous movement of cattle means SO
much TO the railroads both now and later
that they are sidetracking their fast ex-
press trains that the cattle may speedily
reach their destination.
