would it not be a good idea to hold a
state convention late this fall at
some central point where the work Of
civic Improvement has been largely
CARRIED out and invite the may rs and
chiefs Of the various cities and towns
TO appoint, delegates to said conven-
Etion? Civic Improvement workers Of
national renown could be secured to
make addresses and the delegates
could give data as to progress in their
respective localities. Certainly such
a convention would be of great benefit
to the state, as whole and undoubted-
ly the formation of civic improvement
societies in most of the cities would
follow during the winter SO that active
operations could be begun early in
the spring. While many places have
done good work along this line prob
ably Valley City has taken the lead,
that city, therefore, is suggested as
a good place for the convention, for
there the delegates could perhaps
best see the results attained by one
seasons united effort. 1t seems to
the Tribune this suggestion is worthy
of consideration. &. 90.

SOME GOOD POINTS ON THE
STOCK MARKET.

Receipts of cattle to date this
week, 5S,700, which is about 10000
less than a week ago. We had about
10000 westerns on the market this
week. Good weight rangers showed
about 10 cents advance but light and
plain grades were only on steady
basis. The feeder market seems to
show some strength on account of the
good prospects Of big corn crop.
The range cattle that have come to
market so far are mostly Montana,
western South Dakota, and Wyoming,
very few North Dakota cattle have
come to market up to the present
time The reason for this is on ac-
count of the wet season North Dako-
ia has had, and the grass being too
green at this time of the year. We
have had a few small shipments from
the North Dakota range country west
of the Missouri river, but the cattle
showed that the grass was not cured

keep you posted on the market during
the season, and when you getready to
ship your cattle, will consider it a
personal favor if you will consign
them to Evans-Snider-B uel company.
You will find me at this end to look
after you and your cattle when you
arrive, and see that they are properly
handled. We have added three new
statesmen to our force, and have also ac-
quired more yard room, and are better.
equipped to handle your business than

doubly assured in the increased value
of the land. Again, comparing the
conditions in this state with those ex-
listing under several of the great irri-
cation systems of. other localities, it
is seen that the cost of reclaana ton
by drama ge in the Red river valley is
less than one-tenth the cost of irriga-
ton in other sections. III
. 1t is not to be assumed that these
surveys necessarily mean that the
government is to construct the pro-
posed drainage systems although this
possibility is contemplated in bill
proposed, but not yet made law, by
Senator Hansbrough. Rather, it is to
indicate to the people affected an
ideal system toward which they them
selves may labor and which they
themselves may bring about if they
will. It shows the best locations for
canals whether constructed singly or
severally and gives their proper
dimensions for the satisfactory re-
moval of the surface waters. 1t is of
equal value whether the work is done
by the government or by the dis
tricts.
These plans may be seen at any of
the offices designated and the state
engineer stands ready to furnish any
additional explanation or assistance
that may be needed at any time.

RED RIVER VALLEY DRAINAGE

The state engineer has just re
ceived from the engineer in charge of
the drainage Investigations of the
United States department of agri-
culture, Mr.. c. G. Elliott, advance
copies of the plats and estimates of
the drainage systems proposed for
portions Of the Red river valley lying
In Cass, Trail, Grand Forks, and
Walsh counties The plans are the
results from the surveys made last
season by the United States drainage
division in cooperation with the state
engineers office and the various
counties affected. They have been
worked out with great care by Mr.. y.
T. Stewart, United States drainage
engineer, and are now ready for the
printer. These advance copies have
been sent on in order that one set
might be placed on file in the state
engineers office and one set in each
of the offices of the county auditors
of the counties affected, for the bene-
, at of the public. s.. ss. .. y
In general the plans contemplate
the division Of the territory needing
drainage into districts and the con-
struction Of main canals and laterals
in the ways best adapted for the ac-
complishment of the desired ends. It
is obvious that an isolated ditch here
and there cannot do all the work any
more than the main canal Of an irri-
cation system can accomplish COM
pIete irrigation without the aid Of
Iaterals or an arm do good service in
playing a piano without the aid Of
the fingers. n, y
1t is shown that If the plans recon-
mended could be carried out the cost
TO the districts affected would average
only about s2.25 per acre, an exceed
ingly small cost when compared with
the accrueing advantages or the cost
of similar work ii other localities.
Estimates Of the state engineer and
officers Of the United States drainage
division indicate that the entire cost
OF construction would have been much
more than returned BY the increased
yield in any one Of the last three Of
four years. Looking at 1T ID another
way, the value OF the land drained
would certainly be augmented BY ten
times the cost. Localities not SO fer
tile or productive as the Red river
valley do not hesitate to spend from
SIS To $50 per acre 10 drain their wet
lands III file full assurance that The
cost win be returned IN the first
years crop and its return be again

PROSE POETRY,

Again we desire to call attention to
the panty prose poetry that flows
from the pen of Editor Kellogg of the
Alert-when he is not out fishing at
that Spiritwood cottage. A. recent
issue of the Alert says: - r
1t is mid summer in North Dakota
and the eyes of the world are on the
great green prairies of the state now
rapidly turning into immense patches
of. golden yellow that give the entire
landscape a most beautiful and vari-
gated appearance. Nature is an artist
unexcelled in the combination Of her
colors. No mi1liner nor painter, nor
artificial dabbler in colors can excel
or even compete with nature in her
summer adornments in the northwest.
The great fields of wheat and oats
now getting yellow under the warm
rays of the sun, contrast elegantly
with the rich green of the unripe fax
fields adjoining where the blossom
the whole field. The prairie where
the native grasses have not been cut
for hay, begin to show light tan
shade, caused by great numbers Of
yellow flowers, the brown-eyed susans
and golden rods and f1imsy fox tails
making the grandest show.
North Dakota is yellow country
in the fall with the grasses, the grains
and flowers all slowly merging into
golden .tints symbolical of the gold,
that is master of. the world and which
our great crops will soon be bringing
into the hands of the farmers of the
state ~ *, a ~
NO golden stream flowing from
forest, mine or hive Of industry can
equal the yellow food of wealth that
will soon be pouring into this state
| for the greatest of all products, the
I food that the world must have saeh
day in the year on which to live.
The poor man who came to North
Dakota and who has raised the crops
of the last few years, and who sees
| his present crop ripening into COLLEEN
wealth, almost ready for his use, and
benefit, can almost feel that the
fairy tale of childhood about King
Midas turning what he touched into
gold, has become a trnth--a reality
that he never dreamed would come TO
pass.
