usual. There are places in North Da-
kOta where there is still some snow,
but, generally speaking, the ground is
bare and the roads are getting in
shape so that farmers can make. prep
arations for spring work. The heavy
SHOWS during the winter made many
people fearful that the Red river val
ley would be wet again this spring,
but, fortunately, that is not the case,
and there is little indication OF any
difficulty from that source. In fact,
the prospects are better there today
than they have been at this time for
fiva years.
I'm southern Minnesota and South
Dakota every farmer is busy with
wheat seeding or other field work.
Many farmers report a large acreage
already sown.
I'm South Dakota, where the work
is further along than in Minnesota. in
dications are for about the same acre
age CT wheat as last season, of which
a somewhat smaller per cent will be
durum.
Barley, fax and oats will probably
each show larger acreage than in 1906.
Many new farms are being opened and
much new land will be put in crop.
We think the acreage of durum will be
increased in North Dakota.
Seeding In South Dakota and south
ern Minnesota is about ten days in ad-
vance Of the average date, but in North
Dakota and northern Minnesota there
is no prospect that the work will be
accomplished earlier than usual"

THE PUBLIC ENTITLED TO
ACCURATE INFORMATION.

Has or has not the public the
right to expect and insist upon
prompt, courteous, accurate and
definite information from the en-
ployees of "A railroad in reply to
inquiries as to the arrival of trains.
We believe the public has the right
secure and that the railroads owe
the duty of giving such informa-
ton. For the sake of both the
travelling public and the railroads.
the latter ought to recognize their
obligation and perform this duty.
The public is dependant upon the
railroads and there should be only
friendship toward those roads
which do their best to serve the
public. AS mere matter of self
protection, the roads ought to do
everything possible to win pOpu-
larity instead of arousing hostility,
for when a citizen gets angry at
an employee of railroad and gets
chance as "A Juror or voter To give
expression to that anger. he too
often does so, forgetting that in
the long run, he and other citizens
pay any damages assessed against
the road and suffer from any un-
fair and unwise legislation. And
vet even the best managed roads
do not recognize that there is no
greater source of irritation than
the failure or refusal of their en-
ployees to give prompt and def
mite information as to the arrival
of trains. Lexington Herald.
