The Sea Serpent.

When fourteen miles off the coast of
Brazil M. ]. Nicoll, author Of 'Three
Voyages Of Naturalist" observed a
sea serpent which came within about
fifty yards of the ship. "A1l that we
could see was a dorsal fin about four
feet long sticking up about two feet
from the water. The fin was brown
ish black color and much resembled a
gigantic piece Of ribbon seaWeed. Be
low the water we could indirectly see
a very large brownish black patch, but
could not make out the shape Of the
creature. Every now and then the fin
disappeared below the water. Sud
denly an eel-like neck, about six feet
long and of the thickness Of mans
thigh, having head shaped like that
Of a turtle, appeared in front of the fin,
flashing up the water with curious
wriggling movement. This creature
was an example, consider, of what
has been so often reported, for want
of a better name, as the great sea
serpent I feel sure, however, that i
was not a reptile that we saw, but q
mammal" E.

a Dispenser Of Smiles.

Her mother said: "Oh, dear! Isn't
that awful? What will people think ?"
but the people themselves seemed to
think it about the prettiest incident
they had met that day.
She was a very little girl, white
frocked, pink ribboned, brown curled.
With her mother she left the subway
train at the Grand Central station. The
usual confusion prevailed. Timid trav-
elers grabbed suit cases and bundles
and exclaimed, "Oh, do we change
here?" Trainmen on the platform
shouted out directions for local and
express trains and the guards Of that
particular car adjured the passengers
frequently and vehemently to "Step
livelyw and to watch the STEP" Then
all of a sudden there was lull in the
uproar. The little girl was leaving
the car. She stopped at the door, look
ed back and waved her hand.
"Goodby, everybody" she said.
The words carried to the far end OF
the car. They made every one sit up.
Two or three persons called out re-
sponsive "Goodby," two or three said
"Bless the child" and all smiled.-New
York Press. s|..

In this between season time, this is
snug sum to get into circulation,
and the contractors are to be con-
graduated upon their energy and
spirit in getting this contract and
filling it with a home product. OF
all the horses offered, not one was
rejected because of disease, and the
only reflections were made because
of age and weight. North Dakota

Wisconsin Warehouse Com

Fargo Forum, July "a: Another
conference between the Wisconsin
Grain & Warehouse commission and
the independent grain dealers of
North Dakota was held yesterday
afternoon and continued last evening
and quite much better understand
ing was reached by the two parties
and it is certain that much better
gradings will be received by the
North Dakota shippers than has ever
before been received, and with.
great saving.
H. A. Johnson of the Wisconsin

was one Of the principal men at the
conference, said this morning in

mutually beneficial and on which the
shippers of the state can depend
The commission intends to make this

with the Minnesota standards.
"The Minnesota standards make
first grade wheat test at so pounds,
second grade at So and third grade at
55 pounds. This I consider unfair
as I often find that SO test wheat is
just as good first grade wheat as 60
test and for this reason the Wiscon-
sin commission intends to reduce
their standards of tests for the diff
ferent grades of grain. A meeting
will be held at Superior next month
and it is possible that this matter
will be taken up at that time. p
s'What I wish you to express to
the people of North Dakota is that
the Wisconsin inspection is just as
much their inspection as it is ours,
| and it is now up to them to help
themselves. And I want to say right
| here that the people of the state do
| not realize the vast amount of good
work which their representative, w.
c. Macfadden of the city, has done
for them and he certainly deserves
great credit. 4. ,S

when asked what he knew about
the establishment of a cleaning ele-

not think that it will be arranged

season."

GOOD AND BAD FARMING.

The editor of the Minneapolis
Market Record makes this comment
upon good and bad farming:
From the reports that came in
from the northwest grain fields dur
ing the height of the dry weather
scare, the most glazing fact that
came out was the different effect OF
the extreme heat and idrouth on land
well farmed and on land poorly
farmed.
where there has been no real
partnership with nature and the
man, where the mere sowing of the
seed had constituted the extreme Ia
Dor the first turn from favorable
growing conditions to a day or two
of trial the hap-hazard farmers
crops were not in shape to stand the
test. Here is the most reckless and
most foolish form of gambling thai
any man can indulge in. 1t is real.
" worse than gambling in which
chance is admitted and taken, but
{ nc man should care to play fast and
loose with his means of livelihood
'tThe want of intelligent farming
is not the sole cause of crop failures
in this country, but the losses from
deterioration may be set down ir
great part to unskillful agriculture
There seems to be no reason in the
world why a farm on one side OF q
road should go 30 bushels to the
acre, and farm on the other side
should show results that measure
around 6 OF s bushels to- the acre
Yet this is reported frequently after
harvest and from widely scattered
sections.
e'The writer was out several years
ego with party of agricultural ex
perts who were looking over the
country and gathering farming data
y At nearly every town where farmers
gathered to listen to the lecturers
the end was almost an ACCOMPLISHMENT
that their methods of farming mean
injury to the land, and that the
natural richness of the soil was be
( ing robbed for the season with ne
consideration of the future.
Happily this is not so true toda,
as 1t has been in the past, but oc
currences like the present hot wave
brings out emphaticalIy Che worth O
intelligent farming and is the ont
belling argument that it pays"
