Rough on Stokes.

Peter Stokes. who has been mar
ried only two weeks, has left his
wife. Stokes is little man and his
wife weighs 24O pounds and was the
relict of the late Seth Thompson.
About ten days after marriage Stokes
was surprised, on waking in the morn
ing. to find his better half sitting up
in bed crying as if her heart would
break.
Astonished, he asked the cause OF
her sorrow, but, receiving no reply,
he began to surmise that there must
be some secret on her mind which she
withheld from him, and which was the
cause OF her anguish; so he remarked
to Mrs. S. that as they were married
she ought to tell him the cause of her
grief, so that, if possible, he might
lessen it.
After considerable coaxing he elicit
ed the following from her: Last night
l dreamed I was single, and as l
walked through well-lighted street
| came to shop where sign in front
advertised husbands for sale. Think
along the wall on either side were
men with prices affixed to them-such
beautiful men-some for one thousand
pounds, some five hundred, and SO on
to one hundred and fifty; and, as l
had not that amount. could not pur.
chase"
Thinking to console her, Stokes
placed his arm lovingly around her,
and asked, "And did you see any men
like me there?"
"Oh yes" she replied, "lots like
you; they were tied up in punches
like asparagus, and sold for ten shill-
ings per bunch"
Stokes got up, and went to ask his
lawyer if he had sufficient grounds
for a divorce.

ALFALFA VS.. CLOVER.
Deadly Parallel Drawn Between the
Two Forage Crops.

Oeaoiy FdrdilcI Drawn Between the
Two Forage Crops.
Alfalfa is ready for cutting a full
month before red clover. There is a
strong advantage in dairy farming,
since green crops are needed at the
earliest possible moment in the
spring. After cutting, alfalfa springs
into growth more promptly than clov.
er and a second crop is produced
within six to eight weeks. Clover
lasts two years and alfalfa ten to
thirty years. In New Jersey the av-
erage yield of green forage per acre
was 36,540 pounds for alfalfa and H.
900 pounds for red clover. The
weights of dry hay were 8,25S pounds
and 4.088 pounds, and of protein 2,214
pounds and GIG pounds per acre, re-
spectively. In the same state alfalfa
was found to contain 1909 pounds OF
dry matter and 265 pounds of protein
per ton, as compared with 1884
pounds and 246 pounds for clover.
In other words alfalfa not only yields
two and one-half times as much as
red clover, but its feeding value is
much greater pound for pound

GREAT NORTHERN
SLASnfS RATES
SWEEPING REDUCTION IN GRAIN
RATES ON EASTERN SECTION
OF SYSTEM.
MEANS MILLIONS TO FARMERS
REDUCTIONS ARE VOLUNTARY
AND WITHOUT PRESSURE
FROM OUTSIDE.

ment of the most vital, widespread
and immediate Importance to the
farming interest of the Northwest
was made Saturday night by the
Great Northern railroad. the manage
ment of which decided to make a
sweeping reduction in grain carrying
rates throughout its eastern territory
as far as Manitoba.
The reductions announced are in
accord with those made three years
ago upon the eastern section of the
Great Northern.
The order takes effect at once, and
will, it is calculated, save Northwest
ern farmers nearly 100000 upon the
shipment of this years crop.
The officials of the road announce
that the reductions are not made in
response to any pressure, but are
purely voluntary, and in line with the
proft-sharing policy between the rail
road company and the agriculturists
who are developing the rich country
along its lines.
Scale of Reduction.
This reduction of rates ranges from
cents per hundred. from the most
distant points, to half cent from
points nearest the Twin Cities and the
head of the lakes. From Williston,
distant from the head of the lakes
GIG miles, the reduction is cents. On
the Granville branch. the Tower
branch, the line from Rugby to Ant
Ter, the branch from York to Thorne.
the Lakota branch, now extended to
Sarles, the rates are cut cents. This
covers an immense stretch of country,
much of it recently brought under cul-
tivation, in North Dakota.
From Minot to the head of the lakes,
from Grand Forks and Fargo and
Hillsboro, on the Hanna line, running
north from Larimore, on the Neche
line and the st. Vincent line, the re-
duction is 2 cents per hundred. On
the st. Johns line, running from
Church's Ferry, and the Walhalla line
it is 2 IL cents, and from Larimore it
is IL cents.
Similarly, in South Dakota there is
a reduction of cents per hundred
from Huron, cents from Aberdeen
and Yankton, and corresponding re-
ductions from other points to Mime
apolis. In Minnesota the new rates
show reduction of 2 cents per hun
dred from Crookston. Thief River
Falls, Warren and Moorhead, and Of
IL cent for Fergus Falls, Morris,
Breckenridge, Litchfield, Alexandria
and st. Cloud.
What It Means to Farmers.
The meaning of this great boon to
the farmers of the Northwest is some
thing more than would be the winning
of battle or the signing of some ad-
vantageous treaty. 1t affects the en-.
tire grain product of the granary of
the Northwest. For the same rates
are made by the Northern Pacific, and
must be met by every other line doing
business in the same territory.
1t will reach saving of at least /
cent. perhaps IL cents. on ship
ments of more than 200,OO0,00O BUSH
els to the primary markets. This
foots up from 100000 to $4,000, 900
that will remain in the pockets of the
farmer, and of this total saving the
Great Northern company, the great
grain carrier of this section. will con-
tribute at least one-half.

Prominent Drainage Worker and
Lawyer Passes Away.
Breckenridge, Minn., Aug. 22.-Ezra
g. Valentine, prominent drainage
worker, attorney and capitalist of
this city, died suddenly Saturday af-
ternoon at his summer home at Battle
Lake, a short distance from here. He
was fifty-five years old, and his death,
which was due to apoplexy, came
without previous warning and was so
unexpected that even his son and
daughter, who were spending the
summer with him at Battle Lake,
knew nothing of it until they attempt
ed to arouse him for his lunch. Mr.
Valentines death removes a promi-
nent character in the history of the
Northwest.
