being built by the Great Northern
railway from Glendale, n. d., south
east and new town will be estab-
hshed at the terminus of this extern

for business openings that will at
once appeal to the investor. The
nearest trading point to Forbes will
be Glendale, which is fifteen miles
distant. 1t is expected to build here
one of the very best towns opened
up here this season. The soil about
this new town is the very best to be
found in the state, and good crops
are assured, and the fact that it has
a large territory to draw from will
make it an exceptionally good trad
ing point la the selection of the
location of this town care has been
taken so as to make the town serve
the largest community and the best
country.
The town is located in the south
east corner of section 3S, township
1879, range 65, and the first sale of

who are interested the exact loca.
ton of the lots.
1t is expected that regular train
service will begin about October 18th.
Several elevators will be built at
once to handle this seasons crop.
The present indications point to
big demand for business locations,
and there will be excellent opportu-
mites for one or more strictly first
class hotels, several large general
merchandise stores, hardware stores,
livery stables, and in fact every line
of business.
Mr. ID. N. Tallman, president of the
Dakota Development CO., of Willmar,
Mimi, will be pleased to furnish any
further information relative to the
sale of these lots. Send to him for

How Islands Get Forests,

When travelling among the islands of
the Pacific or Atlantic one often Won
derS how it is that lands SO far away
from great continents have become
covered with forests. but Darwin and
other naturalists have solved the
difficulty for us.
Thus we learn from Darwin that he
took from the foot of 4 woodcock a
cake of dry earth i'm which was seed
of the toad rush. He planted the seed
and it gcrminated and lowered.
Professor Newton sent him the leg
of partridge which had been wounlcd
and unable to fly. Attached to it was
cloi of earth weighing six and one
ounces. He broke up the clod and
placed it under the bell glass. No
fewer than eighty-two plants sprang
from it. 1t is the more interesting to
know that the clod of earth containing
his treasury was kept three years be-
fore planting.--The House Beautiful
