Aitkin, Mimi, Aug. 26.-The "Aitkin
food' has come and gone, and peo-
pie have been looking around to see
what it did in the way of damage. The
Mississippi has been falling for several
at HOO as against 1881 on Aug. L..
Last month it reached 1886, the high
est record since 1888.
The exaggerated accounts of the
flood which, for one reason or another,
were set going, have been Of much
greater damage to the county in gen.
eral than q dozen similar overfows
could actually do to the narrow strip
jected to high waters ever since the
river has been doing business.
Exaggerated Reports of Damage.
It was reported that Aitkin county
had been devastated; that 500 buildings
were swept away;. that hundreds of
settlers had lost all they had in the
world. were huddled together in
churches and camping IN tents pitched
On high places; that they were in Hrg-
and that $4,000 was necessary to re,
ieve suffering.
The facts are that with the Aitkin
gauge standing at nearly record mark Of
1886 on July 6, and 8, there not not a
head Of stock lost and not so much as
a shed disturbed on it's foundation in
the entire district. The water over

located in the bottoms, which the river
has made, and which it reclaims at
varying intervals Of time whenever
the rainfall is heavy. enough to pro-
duce freshet or flood. ,..
Few Settlers Moved.
All told, there were four river set
tiers who moved to town. They live
upon the bank at particularly low por-
tions. One other man who is employed
in g. stave mill also left his house in
the river district, and as the Baptist
parsonage happened to be unoccupied,
he moved into that, hence the report
that the people Of the flood region were
housed here in churches. The only
campers who have been in the vicinity,
since spring are the sunauar sNisiters.

Second-CIass Beet Seed.

1t appears that there is "shoddy" in
every kind of business. There Is no
exception in beet seed, says a circular
OF the United States Department OF
Agriculture. The responsible beet
seed growers of Europe furnish the
standard "a" or "elite" seed to those
who call for it. 1t is much more ex-
pensive, but it is the seed that should
be used in all cases. The closer akin
the seed is to the selected mothers
the higher will be the quality of the
beets. There is another class of
growers, however, who plant out this
"elite" seed and grow another crop of
small mother beets similar to the
first. These are planted the following
spring, producing crop Of second
class stecklinger, which are planted
out, producing seed the same as in
the case Of the first-class stecklinger.
This removes this second-class seed
two generations from the original Sc.
lected mothers. AS without constant
selection there is a great tendency
in beets to degenerate in sugar and
purity, it must be apparent that this
second-class seed is very much in.
ferior to the "eiite." Much of it, how
ever, reaches this country and is
planted, producing many of our crops
of beets.

One Dollar a Year Per Hen.

The above is the popular estimate
Of the cost of feeding hen a year.
At twenty-four cents a dozen, fifty
eggs should pay for the cost of keep.
Ing her and the balance Of the eggs
should be an Offset against the ex.
pense Of sheltering and caring for
her. That some flocks do not pay a
profit Is due to careless management
by the owner, for whether on the
farm or in an establishment devoted
to the raising of poultry 1t should not
cost more than the sum mentioned to
supply the food the hen consumes
annually.
In the light of this, the reason why
some flocks do not pay is that they
are SO badly taken care of that the
losses from diseases. rats, mites, and
preying animals and birds is very
great. We say that it costs only a
dollar to feed hen year. On that
estimate it costs a man to feed 100
hens half year $50, and the fowls
do not begin to lay before that time
in most cases. Now on many farms

Rare Egg Found

A moa's egg has been found In a
mining district in Central Otago,
New Zealand. There was fall of
earth in dredging claim and present
ly the huge egg was seen floating
uninjured in the water. The dis
covery is the more interesting from
the fact that 1t is the second perfect
moa's egg that has ever been found.
The only other perfect specimen was
unearthed by man while digging in
the alluvial soil at the Kalkouran
mountains in the early COS. This egg,
which was nine inches in length and
seven inches in breadth, was taken
TO England and sold for $500. Some
idea of the size of these eggs may be
CLEANED from the fact that a mans
hat makes an excellent egg cup for
them.

irrigation Statistics

Nowhere is irrigation practiced so
extensively as In India, where about
25,0OO,00O acres are irrigated. Egypt
is next. The Assouah dam in the
Nile is considered one of the greatest
engineering feats in the history of
the human race. Irrigation is new in
Australia, but is spreading rapidly
there, and the same is more or less
true Of South Africa. The practice
of irrigation has declined or entirely
disappeared in many regions where it
prevailed in remote antiquity.
