FARMERS ORGANIZE,


A correspondent Of tho Fergus Falls
Journal says tho cooperative question
seems to be the order of the dsy in
tho locality ..of Pelican Lake. 80 The
farmers have organized and voted to
build their own elevator, store and
creamery and railroad questions are
being discussed. q Farmers declare they
will not wait another quarter of q
century for the Great Northern or any
other railroad company to supply this
rich and dourishinR country with q
road, and some of them have come to
the conclusion they can organize, in.
corporate, sell shares and build and
run an independent line of their own,
rather than be excluded from rail-
road entirely. The lire referred to
would be direct line connecting AL
tona on the 500 line with Fargo, run
ming along the southern shore of Pel1-
can lake. This branch would find al
most level scope of country with
few cuts and fills, and very little
bridging. One farmer along the pro-
posed route says he alone can guaran-
tee $50, 900.

COST or STATIONS
Interesting Testimony Civ

Dealers and importers of pure bred
horses in Minnesota are at outs. and
as result are divulging trade Secrets
says last Fridays Pioneer Press. They
are telling that Minnesota farmers
during the last few years have DUR
chased imported horses at from six to
seven times their cost to importers
One importer admitted that he had
made q profit Of 500, 900 Importing
stations With n the last few years,
and he did not claim to be one of
the larger importers operating in the
Northweet.
This was the chief information
eIioited at the public hearing on the
bill by Representative F. A. Carlson
Of Litchiield, making notes given for
stations and lightning rods non
negotiable.
g. W. Patterson. recently made
superintendent Of the horse depart.
msnt Of the Minnesota state fair. said
that dealing In imported stations was
second only to gambling as a money
making device. Horses bought for
nominal prices at French, ..seaports
were sold To- farmers at q. 500 to 8, :
900 4 piece Or even more. The bill, he
said. would make horse dealing 4
straight business 10 that the animals
must be az represented.
The advocates of the bill -erasserted
that large Eastern importers sent out
agents who interested prominent men
in community, and got several
farmers and others to cooperate in
purchasing pure bred draft stallion
The animal would be warranted, but
if found worthless, the negotiable
notes given had passed into the hands
of an innocent purchaser, 80 that they
had to be paid. If the notes were not
negotiable the purchasers could set
up their defense when suit was
brought. The passage of the BILL it
was argued, would help the sale of
domestic animals whose breeders live
in Minnesota apd are responsible for
guarantees.

A New Theory Of Sleep.

An interesting and novel theory OF
sleep has recently been put forward by
DR.. Clararede, French scientist, who
holds that sleep is positive function
or an instinct designed to arrest func-
tioning. DR.. Clararede makes the as
sertion that we sleep not because we
are intoxicated or exhausted, but in
order to avoid such conditions. Not
only are there various kinds and de-
grees of sleep, but it does not always
follow exhaustion. Furthermore, 1t is
well Known that sleep is not proper
tional to the degree OF exhaustion
and it may be either total or partial.
In measuring the profoundness OF
sleep various conditions are encoun'
tered which are not susceptible of ex
PLANTATION on the toxic theory, but
which agree perfectly with the by
pothesis that it is positive nervous
function The definition of sleep, &C
cording to this new theory, is a reac
ton produced by various excltants
and IS an inhibition which manifest:
itself subjectively by lack of interes
in exterior things.-Harper's Weekly.

TRIPLE PLAYS ARE RARE.
But TWO Men Have Pulled Them Off
UnassiSted

A triple play is one of the rare
things in baseball, because it requires
a combination of circumstances which
seldom occur. There must be at least
two men on the bases, and no one out
Then the next batter must hit the ball
in a certain way, or the chance TOT
triple is lost. In addition to this, the
fielding must be perfect and fast. But
two triple plays, made by one man un-
assisted, have ever been recorded.
One was the famous play OF PAU
Hines way back in the early Sos.
The other Is fresh in the mind, al
though it was made in minor
league.
In 1901 Harry O'Hagan was playing
first base for Columbus, in the west
-ern association. Tin canned, he Wcit
East to Newark, and the day after he
donned New Jersey uniform he
pulled off the play that made MIN
famous. With men on first and SECOND
and, of course, nobody out. OHagan
was playing close to the bag, when
the next batter hit liner directly lntc
his hands. The force CT the ball was
enough to knock him back so that MS
foot touched the first sack, retiring

saw that the runner there had started
at the crack OF the bat and was nearly
to third. So, instead of throwing tht
ball, he sprinted to second base WIFI
it in his hand, arriving in time TO pu
the third man out on the play.
J Last season the Kansas City clu'
of the American association made tw'
triple plays in one game at Toledo.

BUFORD-TRENroN PROJECT.

A new irrigation project, which
promises much for the Northwest is
the Buford- Trenton Reclamation pro-
ject. The United States government
has set aside $3.50, 600 for this work and
the active operations will begin inside
of so days. When this work is COM
pleted some Is, 600 acres of now arid
land will be reclaimed and the western
part of North Dakota will be as at
tractive as the!great valley of the Red
River and the productive lands of the
Mouse River Loup. 1t is asserted that
the proposed dam and reservoir will
fill between 10000 and $4,000 acre feet
of water and the proposed canals will
run north and south of the line of the
Great Northern Railway to a point
about three miles east of Trenton North
Dakota, from near Buford, North Da
kota, on the extreme western border of
that state This is but the beginning
of the extensive irrigation projects
which have been planned by the gov
eminent and individuals in western
Dakota and Northwestern Montana,
which, together with the Milk River
irrigation project. will reclaim thou
sands of acres for settlement for agri-
cultural purposes, which have lain
barren for years, and offer an oppor-

THE CORK TREE.
Growth, stripping and Preparation
of Its Bark.

Growth, Stripping and Preparation
of Its Bark.
The methods In vogue In barking and
harvesting the cork in Spain and Por-
tusaI are pretty much the same. The
barking operation is affected when the
tree has acquired sufficient strength to
withstand the rough handling 1t &c,
ceives during this operation, which
takes place when it has attained the
fifteenth year of Its growth. After the
first stripping the tree Is left In this
i,1yenescent state to regenerate, sub
seduent strippInss being effected ut III
tervaIs of not less than three years,
and under this process the tree VIII
continue to thrive and bear for upward
of $50 years. II the bark is not re
moved nrtldclally, 1t will on maturity
split and dismantle itself. This is
caused by the fresh growth of bark
forming underneath
The cork of the first barking Is
termed corcho bornio-bornlzo, or vir-
gin cork The cork Of the second strip
ping is called peIas. OF secondary cork.
The work Of removing the bark from
the tree Is performed in summer by
men. who are paid at the rate OF
%. Cd. a day. The Instruments used
for the work are an ak, lever and
handsaw for the cutting OF tEnnsy ersal
incssIons. The first process through
which the bark passes after stripping
is that of boiling. This is sometimes
done in the woods, but more frequent
ly in the cork factory, in large, special
" constructed caIdrons, In which the
bark is left to boil for upward OF an
hour. This seethlng process increases
the thickness and elasticity Of the corr
and at the same time the tannin and
other feculcnt substances generally ex-
lsting in the bark are desiccated.-Lon-
