zine DISPLAY Of Vegetables.

A fine display of vegetables and root
crops was made at the Grand yester-
day afternoon and 1t was witnessed
by a large number OF people who ex-
pressed surprise that such an array
Of garden and field crops so perfectly
naatured could be produced in this
state The people who wondered were
city folks who have not travelled much
over the state nor have taken the
trouble to inform or interest Them
selves as to the progress which has
been made In this state from one end
to the other in the raising Of vege-
tables and root crops.
The display was the contents OF q
large box sent to Elmer e. Smith by
Halvor Strand. a farmer south Of
Hillsboro. There were sugar beets
tIpfping the scales at twenty pounds,
monster rutabagas, field turnips, car
rots, we'll developed sweet potatoes,
monster cabbages. red onions. different
varieties OF corn, including sweet
corn, parsnfps, high bush cranberries,
celery and summer squash. A promi-
nent and interesting item in the exhi-
bit was q small bush Of peanuts show
ing liberal yield There were also
some splendid samples Of potatoes.
AS a demonstration of what can be
accomplished In the way of growing
vegetables and root crops in the Red
river valley the exhibit named was an
excellent one. But our Red river val
ley friends must not overlook the
fact that there are other sections of
the state which can also make ex-
cellent showings. At the Mandan fair
two weeks ago there were exhibits OF
vegetables and root crops which were
amazing for size and quality-esp
caally in the line of root crops. There
ought to be q supplementary fair
somewhere in the state for the exhi-
bit of perfected vegetables and root
crops and let there be an assembling
OF what can be done, was an opinion
generally expressed yesterday.

Some people win persist in running

ris Posnick was caught selling apples
on Fifth street yesterday. and was
placed under arrest.
Before Justice Wade this morning
the defendant gave the excuse that he
was only delivering goods previously
ordered, but the court and city attor-
ney considered the story rather fishy.
Posnick was given some plain talking
to by the city attorney, the latter say
ing that "Moorhead was an easy
mark and that the ordinance did not
amount 10 anything. He said the
state laws for the regulation of ped
dlers and the licensing of the same
wefe the best ever, they had passed
the test and they were made for the
protection of regularly established bus
mess enterprises. The fee was $25.
the applicant for license must give a
bond for $500 and produce satisfactory
evidences OF good character. The bond
was to ensure the observance of the
pure food provisions in the laws of the
United States and state of Minnesota
A fine of $40 was imposed and paid
with the understanding that IL the law
was violated again the maximum
penalty would be imposed, fine and inn

farmers to do any selling, they posi-
lively declined to make deals with
prices as they are at present. At a
point twenty miles from Kansas City
there were over $50 cars OF potatoes
on the tracks and there are big stocks
at other potato growing centers. Mr..
Bottom predicts that there will be
more holding on to their potatoes by
the farmers in this section than there
was last year.
One Clay county grower stated in

Animals Poor Sailors.

Fur News: The Polar bear is the
only Wild animal that likes a trip on
the water, according TO French
scientist, who has studied Its behavior
at sea. He is quite jolly when aboard
snip, for all other animals violently
resent such a voyage until seasickness
brings silence.
The tiger suffers most Of all. He
whines pitifully, his eyes water con-
tinually and he rubs his stomach with
his terrible paws. Horses are bad
sailors and often die on a sea voyage.
Oxen are heroic In their attempts
not to give way to seasickness. Ele-
plants do not like the sea, but they
are amenable to medical treatment.
A good remedy is bucketful of hot
water containing three and one half
pints of whisky and seven ounces Of
quinine.

Will Repair Dams.

The private dams except the wooden
mill dam at Fergus Falls. are to be re-
built, or rathc- repaired, at once. The
first of these is the Kirk dam, which
is owned by the City Power Co. 1t is
washed out at both sides, but as the
main section stands, the work Of maxi
ing repairs will no. be very difficult.
The plan is to put in Golfer dams this
fall, which will hold the water until
more substantial structures, or heavier
filling can be put in place. Material
has been ordered by telegraph, and
piling will be driv and the Golfer
dams thrown up as rapidly as possible.
The Red River mill dam is owned
jointly by the Red River Milling Co.
and the Fergus Manufacturing Co.
The Red River Milling Co. put In a
substantial stone fiume alongside Its
mill last year. and this held firm and
saved tie mill from being undermined.
