broken, cultivation is done with com:

Larimore and Its Growth.
Larinere, twenty-eight miles west Of
size in Grand Forks county, became the
terminus Of the western extension Of
the railroad from Grand Forks in 1881,
and Forthwith became a very lively rail
road town, at first mostly Of tents, but
by fall scores Of buildings had been
erected.
In the winter large quantities of sup.
plies were unloaded at Larimore for
the extension west which was resumed
the next spring. The work Of grading
the Northern Pacific Casselton branch
line thru Larimore from the south was
also in progress in 1881, the track being

which lights the streets and public
buildings and also lights for CONNER

excellent telephone exchange, numerous
churches, a splendid public school. and
has some fine business places.
The large Elk valley farm adjoins
the city, and there are several other
farms, among the largest in the state,
in the vicinity. The settlers around
Larimore were mainly from Michigan,
New York and other eastern states.
No better farming land can be found
than in this section Of the state, and

Developing Along Many Lines.
North Dakota's opportunities are
present opportunities. It will have
other opportunities later, but the fact
must not be lost sight of that this state
is developing rapidly along many lines.
Especially is this true in the settlement
Of its low-priced lands and in building
up Of new towns and business centers

ENCOURAGIEG VOTING.

The returns from yesterdays voting will be carefully studied to learn how much reform they indicate There have been lively campaigns. and the people" haveseemedt to be awake to their danger, and willing and ready to save themselves. There seems to have been some real reform intended in Bridge port and Ansonia in this State. The people of Philadelphia and also of Pennsylvania meant business and did it. The people of Ohio wanted change, The people of New York citN had their independent ideas, and voted as they thought best for themselves.
 On the whole, then, the returns are encouraging. Some folks think the re- public is in serious danger. but while the people mean right and can vote independently it will be safe. Yester- days voting showed good deal of right meaning and real independence.

Advice to the Still Hunter Regarding

 In still hunting stop very often and look with the greatest care in every direction up and across the wind, and remember to look low. Most persons do not look over the ground enough; they expect to see In plain sight some noble stag, with head erect and every sense on the alert-very much as he is pictured in the old sporting prints.
 What one generally does see--if he sees anything at all before 1t Is too late is the tip of a horn or the quick toss of tail or dark, shapeless mass ap- parently without beginning or end. You are just as apt to see the animal lying down as standing up, provided you have made good stalk. A white tall stands about as high, as small Shetland pony; a caribou is not very much taller, and the height for a moose may appear much less than 1t really is because he is standing in a hollow, on soft ground, or because he is largely hidden by bushes.
 Look, also, for spots of color-look long in the dark places and try not to mistake for foliage the trump, neck or side of your game. Look, also, of course, for movement; the small tree trunk behind that big log suddenly dis appears and another one takes it's place-this may mean that the buck has become suspicious and Is stamp ing at you, lifting first one foreleg and then the other, and bringing each down as quietly and srnartly as he can.

JAPANESE MARRIAGE LAWS

Although Japan has revealed herself as highly enlightened in so many spheres of civilization, she has not yet applied reformatory principles to the institution of marriage.
 There is as yet no such thing in Ja- pan as equality between the sexes. The law relating to marriage recogniz- es no wrongs except on the part oi the wife, from whom the husband may obtain a divorce by merely asserting that he is tired of her, or upon any of the following grounds:
 Disobedience, adultery, barrenness, jealousy, physical antipathy, talkatiye- ness or theft.
 When a girl is about to marry, her mother impresses upon her various rules of conduct to be followed during her welded life. Some of these are:
 Be always amiable to your mother in-law and father-in-law.
 Don't talk much.
 Get up early, go to bed late, and never sleep in the afternoon.
 Until you are fifty, never mix in crowds.
 Do not consult fortune tellers.
 Do not wear light clothes.
 Be humble and polite.
 Never allow yourself to be jealous,
 Even if your husband is in the wrong, never get angry.
 Never speak evil of your neighbors.
 Strict obedience to husband is a wife's nobles virtue. "-Harper's Week ly.
