H0LLANDERS HAPPY HERE
MORE COMING IN FALL

The Hollanders who were brought to
this country in March by Rev. Van Den
Hewvel, and who bought land of O'Con-
nor Bros, made good. They are now
harvesting the crop of over 1, 500 acres,
all broke and put in this spring. The
results are far beyond anything they
expected. The yield is immense, es :
pecially on the farm OF Banker Van
elise; and the prices being what they
are every acre in crop will easily pay
for itself. All are delighted and send
most encouraging reports to their friends
in Holland. Some of these friends are
already on the way: others are prepar-
ing for coming next spring.
This colony of Hollanders around
South Heart and Befield will prove to
be as happy and prosperous COM
munity as can be found in North Da-
kota, and O'Connor Bros, as well as
Banker Van elise and Rev. Van Den
Hewvel, must be congratulated on their
success.

A Linen SHOWER
FOR MISS ROBERTS

A linen shower was held on Friday
of last week at the home of Mrs. A. A.
Harleman for Miss Ruby Roberts. About
IA of Miss Robert friends were present.
The rooms were prettily decorated
with festoons of pink and white crepe

sweet peas helped to carry out the color
scheme.
A guessing cotest was held in which
a charming floral love story had blanks
to be filled out with the names of
flowers.
A set of nine squares of cloth was
given to each guest with directions to
sew together into a large square; and
fourteen quilt blocks were quickly pro-
duced.
After games of various kinds were
played the guest of honor was presented
with some beautiful pieces of table
linen and two souvenir spoons. Later
delicious refreshments were served by
Mrs. Harleman, who was assisted by
Mrs. Wilson Eyer and Mrs. Fred Deiters.

northern PACIFIC
coLoRlsT FARES

The Northern Pacific railway has
announced that low one-way colonist
fares will be in effect via its line daily
from September IS TO October IS. 1909,
inclusive, to the North Pacific coast
and intermediate points. These fares
are for second class tickets, which are
honored in tourist sleeping cars upon
payment of berth rate, and are on the
basis of $25 from St. Paul. Minneapolis,
Duluth and Superior ,$33 from Chicago,
$32 from St. Louis and SIS from Mis-
souri, river points. Stopovers not to
exceed ten days each may be obtained
at stations en- route at and west Of
Glendive, Montana.
1t has been the custom of the western
lines to place these fares in effect each
spring and fall to stimulate settlement
of the west and northwest, and colonist
fares are the means of bringing into the
northwest thousands of settlers who
watch for these rates and shape their
plans to migrate when the rates 60 into

DISASTROUS HAIL
LOSSES EAST OF RIVER

During the past week or ten days the
losses by hail have been heavy in that
part of the state east of the Missouri
river. A report from Valley City es-
Inmates the damage to crops at over
ST, 900. 900, from the worst hail storm
in the history of Barnes county.
Other reports from Pembina, Cavalier,
Walhalla, Cando Westhope. Harvey,
Sanborn, New Rockford and Dawson
show that hail has covered a wide
section of country and that millions of
dollars worth of crops are a total loss.
So far only small hail storms, covering
limited areas, have been reported in
western Dakota. There has been prac-
tically no loss from hail in Stark, Dunn,
Billings and Hettinger counties, and
after this season of the year these storms
are not expected. Should nothing of
the kind occur during the next week or
two all grain will be safe and the farm
els may congratulate themselves on
having been more fortunate than their
neighbors east of the river.
