sample shown is two feet in length
and Mr. Haugeberg informed us
that he had seen alfalfa fields in
the irrigated districts Of the west,
but none as good as his crop raised
this year. The alfalfa crop is a
paying one, and the farmers ofthis
county are but beginning to rea-
lie its value and also the fact that
!itscanbe grown here successfully.

Court adjourned Tuesday after.

NS0S
noon after a session lasting over
two weeks. The most important
civil case was the case of Ward vs.
|Gradin, sheriff of Mclean county.
The case was one in which the le-
gality of taxes was involved. The
case was decided in favor of the
sheriff. The past two weeks has
been very busy ones for the officers
of the court. There were three
convictions for grand larceny; one
for violation of the prohibition law
one forfeiture of bond on. u grand
larceny charge, and one for viola
ton Of the prohibition law.
The editor of this paper has had
his hands full the past two weeks.
The first difficulty was a boil on
our right ear, but that was nothing
in comparison to losing our dog.
We had a dog, sometimes called a
hunter, whyfore, we don't know.
The dog answered to the name of
Keno, and he surely knew-Ais name
for when he was called he always
started off in the opposite direc-
ton. We had owned that pup
about two months when one morn
ing he was gathered to the arms of
some man and was forced to leave
home. A description of that purp
was sent broadcast and he was f.
nally run to the earth at Wilton
and placed in custody of deputy
sheriff Cotton and on last We'd
nesday the pup got home. We are
again happy, the boil got well and
the pup is home.
A special train bearing the Rail
road Commissioners and party; ar
rived in Washburn, Wednesday
at 9 o'clock a. m. The party
consisted of Senator Hansbrough,
Railroad Commissioners Deisem,
Christianson and Stafne and Sec
rotary Hammond, g. r. Huning-
ton, Gen. Manager OF the $500,
w. A. Cole and S. w. Derrick also
of the $780," The party arriving
so early in the city and the rain,
the drive contemplated by the citi-
zens had to be postponed. The
visitors were shown around the
city and expressed themselves very
favorably on the location and the
growth Of the city. This was the
first visit of Senator Hansbrough
to Washburn and he was much
pleased with the location, stating
that the city had a fine location,
and was a thrifty looking place.
The party made a call on The
LEADER. MI. Deisem, president
Of the board Of Railroad Commits
sioners, carried the mail from Bis
marck to IT. Buford in 1873, and!
is wellacquainted with thiissection.
The party spent about an hour in
Washburn. Senator johnson ac-
companied the party as, far as Will,

The steel range man with the
mules, is a making a canvass of
this part of the county. It must
be remembered that we have mer-
chants at home who handle just as
good ranges and will be sold just
as cheap and on the same terms.
How much better is it to patronize
the home merchant, one whom you
know and have faith in. The mer-
chant pays his proportionate share
of the taxes and when a subscript-
ion paper is passed around the
name of the merchant is generally
at the head of the list. This is a
free country and the people are not
compelled to buy of the home mer-
chant, but that is not the question.
No matter how successful a man is
or how much money he is worth,
there may come a time when he is
compelled to ask for credit and he
does not go to the foreign merchant
for the same, but the home mer-
chant is the one who helps out
when it comes to a pinch. Now
just think of these things when it
comes to sending away for a bill of
goods. Keep the money at home.
It will return in more ways than
one, but if it is sent away that is
the last of it, Chicago or some
other seaport reaps the benefit.
The prospects for a good, crop of
kinds of grain could not be better.
On account of the early spring and
the dry condition of the ground,
farmers were able to get their crops
in early and in good shape. The
early part of the season was dry,
with Just enough moisture to start
the grain. Along about this time
a number of complaints were heard
about the dry spell, that this sea-
son would be but a repetition of
some of the seasons of the early
days. The past two months has
clearly demonstrated the fact that
this climate has changed, that a
hot, dry spring is not always fol-
lowed by a summer of the same
kind, such as use to be the case in
the good old days" We do not
know whit the crop prospect will
be a month from now, but at the
present time. the conditions are
most favorable. There is plenty Of
moisture and the largest acreageof
crop ever planted in Mclean coun-
ty give promise Of q bountiful har-
vest.
