Work at Bull River.

The P~rospector, a leading British
Columbia paper published at Gran
brook LIZ miles north of the Bull
River property, contains a long de-
scription of the Bull River water
power and other matters of interest,
and quotes President Henderson
under date Of October 10, as follows:
"That it was the intention of the
company to complete the tlume as
soon as possible, that twenty men
were now at work, and that another
large force would be employed as soon
as certain machinery was placed on
ground.
q. Benjamin Of Chicago will have
charge OF the work. Arrangements
have been completed for the installa-
ton of a sawmill. The grade for the
fiume has been completed; the flume
will be sever feet in height with a
width of 16 feet, and a total length
of 5000 feet.
600, 900 feet of planking for the
fiume will be purchased from the
Crows Nest Pass Lumber CO.. 1t
will take 1900, 600 feet of lumber to
make the necessary frames for the
fiume. this will be sawn at the COM
pany's mill. The mill will be con
structed directly over the flume, and
the logs when cut will be floated
down the river to the flume, thus saw
ing a great deal of expense and time.
Mr.. Henderson also stated that
Cranbrook, in a direct line from Bull
river vas but sixteen miles and that
if the company could make the
necessary arrangements electric
power lines would be constructed to
this city, Moyie and Kimberley, and
that it might be possible to have this
work done during next spring, at any
event, the work would be pushed to
completion as rapidly as possible.

Contest which will be held during the
coming winter. They can't all 60
down to Chicago and win a farm and
other valuable prizes like Bro. VIM
pie, but they can do much to increase
the value Of their corn crop which
means a growing bank account, great
er happiness and modern homes.
This great national corn show In
Chicago was not generally understood
or it's scope appreciated, but Nj.
Wimple was willing to take bis
chance with the others and In SO do
ing struck a prize winning gait that
threw all competitors in the north
west u of the race. It Is a great
victory for Lincoln county and a
great victory for South Dakota and a
great victory for the Andrew Jackson
Wimple, one OF most genial gentle
men and big hearted farmers in the
state, and the LEADER is very proud
over his success.
After the prizes had been awarded
and the generaLbusiness Of the maize
show completed an auction was held
and some fancy corn was sold and
some fancy prices paid, in fact a world
record was made in the sale of a sin
gle a Of corn for $3.50. Just think OF
it we Lincoln county corr boomers,
two hundred ana fifty dollars for a
single "a of corn, and you may have
.tseveral such ears around home and
don't know it. This valuable ear OF
corn came from Indiana and was
known as a Boone County White"
and was knocked down after an ex-
citing contest to the highest bidder,
L. B. Clore, a great big farmer from
Franklin Indiana, the man who
raised IT. His prizes amounted to
about $4,000 including a farm In Texas.
This last great corn show demon
-strates that our people are just be-
ginning to appreciate the real value
of corn and are wiling to devote both
time and money to convince farmers
THAT their great big corn fields, with
so to 10 bushels OF beautiful golden
ears to the acre is the greatest bank
ing power in the world.
The LEADER wants every farmer in
Lincoln county to study this corn
question with renewed interest, and
be prepared to take part in the next
corn contest which will be held dur
ing the coming winter.
Dakota farmers' leader. (Canton, S.D.) 1890-19??, 1907-10-25

being awarded on the best 10 ears Of
yellow dent. AS a prize Mr.. Wimple
receives a quarter section Of land in
Texas, a five ton wagon scale, $50 in
cash, and an Elgin watch to cost 1926.
Mr.. Wimple was the first farmer
In the state to try Che experiment. of
breeding corn for seed and he has
made a great success Of the business.
He has given corn breeding a great
deal Of attention and has learned
much by experimenting until he has
won a grand reward and honorable
recognition for his labors. He is a
corn enthusiast and takes great pride
in the study OF corn from the time
the kernels are planted until the
fully developed ears are picked. The
study Of corn is a scientific one of the
highest order in agriculture. Every
man knows something Of corn, but
few can fully explain the relation OF
the silk to the ear, the kernel and
husk and in what manner and how
the silk nourishes the growing corn.
Lincoln county, the banner. corn
county Of the state, has been fortu-
snate in having men who were not
afraid to experiment. in breeding corn
for seed, and through our annual corn
contests in the county, our farmers
are getting to the front more. rapidly
than any other county In the west, SO
far as a general interest in improved
seed and better corn is concerned.
In an open contest, we believe Lin
coin county can compete successfully
with any county in Iowa, Illinois or
Nebraska, for such was the opinion of
the head Of the Illinois department
Of Agriculture at Mitchell last year.
The LEADER feels a great deal Of
pride in Mr.. Wimple's victory, for no
paper in the state has worked so hard
or spent 50 much money to arouse an
interest in the improvement of corn
as the LEADER. The LEADER has
given over 800. in prizes for the best
bushel, the best ten ears and the best
ear Of corn during our annual corn
Econtests in the past six years, and the
farmers throughout the county, we
are pleased to state, are getting more
deeply interested in corn every year.
1t has taken a good deal of newspaper
pounding" to convince many FARMERS
that there was something to learn
about corn not published in the

MARCH TO HOUSE or CON-.
MONS TO MAKE OBJECTIONS.

London, April 22.--The "cry of the
unemployed" was raised in London
again tonight when several thousand
skilled workmen who had been dis
charged from the Woolwich arsenal
ar an outcome of War Secretary
Haldane's scheme of reducing mill
tary expenses marched with bands
and banners eight miles from Wool
wich to the house of commons 10 i'm
press their grievances upon the gov
eminent.
The complaints of the men are far
reaching, representing not only loss
of employment but the wiping out of
their savings invested in little prop
critics located in Woolwich.
The premier received a depuiation
OF the men. War Secretary Haldanes
and Baron Tweedmouth, first lord Of
the admiralty, being present The
men explained their grievances. The
premier made sympathetic reply,
and assured them of the govern.
ment's anxiety that those inevitably
should entail as little
as possible. and promised to
do whatever was possible for the
men.
