TO AID NORTHWEST
All Available Currency to be Sent to Help the Move
 ment of Crops.
DAILY SHIPMENTS NOW
Arrival of Gold in New York Proving Helpful in Expe-
 diting Movement.

New York, Nov. 6.-Now that the monetary strain has been lessened locally the New York banks began preparations to-day to ship all avail abfe currency to the northwest to aid the movement of crops. While there is no concerted action among the city's banking institutions to meet the demands for currency now being made by banks in the crop country, the lp- dividual banks will send all funds that can possibly be spared for the pur- pose.
 The Chase National bank and the First National bank have commenced to ship daily sums ranging from s25,- 900 to $5O,O0O to banks along the route of the Great Northern and Northern Pacific railroads.
 James J, Hill held a copference here with officers of the Chase National bank and other institutions, at which, it is stated, he asked that the north west be given all possible assistance to move the crops. Mir. Hlll was h. formed that, while the local banks could not turnlSh the usual amount or money for crop-moving purpose, they were anxious to do all they could to expedite the shipment of cereals to the seaboard, whence they could be sent abroad and thereby strengthen this eountry's position In the foreign money markets
 The bringing in to-day of gold from abroad has already proved helpful in expedlting the movement of currency to western wheat fields, The premium for currency became lower to-day and this enabled several banks to ship larger amounts of currency than would have otherwise proved possible to their correspondence west of the Mississippi river.

Where Tie Money Goes.

We frequently hear the jug trade
mentioned as an excuse for the Eexist-
ence of a dispensary in our town. We
would like to call the attention of all
such to the fact that all the thousands
of dollars paid for dispensary liquor
goes to the north and west and moth
ing remains here but the profits and
that will not be as much as hereto
fore. Some people seem to think
that the whiskey sold in the dispen-
sary is a product of the state and
therefore we must buy it. We dare
say that the Jug trade whiskey Of
equal quality can be bought for less
than the ~dispensary liquor and it
would be a saving to the people of
the county, if they must have liquor,
to patronize the Jug trade.-Chester-

Parental Law Needed.

too many society tops, parlor soldiers

ers. When we see a little foppish,

into her teens, gadding up and down
the streets, talking slang aud flirting
with he boys, entertaining young
jobless bloods in the parlor in the
night time when she ought to be in
her trundle bed beneath her mothers
tucked snugly in when we see knee
pants kids and beardless youths loaf
ing up and down the streets who are
too trifng to think and too stuck up
to do odd jobs around home, we ex-
claim it's not statutory law that we
need, but it's parental law."-Kansas

Plant Peas and Sorghum.

With hay selling in u markets at
$25 per ton cash, and being shipped
in from the West in large quantities,
it is the clear duty of every farmer,
large or small, tenant, cropper or
landlord, to provide a way through
the coming months to SOW a few acres
in forage SO as to harvest a good yield
of hay this fall. There is no better
combination crop for this purpose
than peas and sorghum sown together.
Just a few acres of land wellprepared
and fertilized will yield al astonishing
amount of forage. One bushel of peas
and a peck of sorghum sown broad
cast to the acre and narrowed in dur
ing the months of May or June will
pay a tremendous profit on the invest
ment.
If the peas cannot be secured, then
plant all sorghum or German millet.
No man who raises cotton at present
prices can afford to buy western hay
at $25 to $50 per ton ur on which to
feed his stock. It wipes out all the
profit of the cotton crop to pay for
such supplies and we had better plant
a few acres less in cotton malpractice
a little more extensive Investigation.
Plant peas and sorghum with which
to fill your barn lofts next fall.-Cot-
ton Journal.
