RAILROADS RUSH MAIL
Letter Mailed IN New York at Noon
Mondav delivered In Seattle
and Tacoma Thursday.

The transmission of mails from
New York to Seattle in four days is
a certainty, from London to Seattle
in nine days a possibility, of the near
future. This is the result of a new
train service recently put into effect.
A Washington dispatch to the New
York Times says:
The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
and Northern Pacific railroads have
combined 10 inaugurate a service
from Chicago to Seattle and Tacoma
that will annihilate distance. Close
connection will be made with the
Pennsylvania railroads 1s-hour train

The Pennsylvania flyer leaves New
York each day at 3 IS O'Clock p. m.
It arrives in Chicago at 8 :55 o'clock
the following morning, in the same
station from which the Burlington
and Northern Pacific train departs
for the West. The flyer for Seattle
will pull out Of this station at 8 20
O'Clock each morning, or Is minutes

thus giving time to tranfer the mail
pouches.

night; Spokane at 9:l5 O'Clock the
third night, and Seattle and Tacoma
at 1880 O'Clock $3.50 New York

CROPS AND MUSTARD.
All Vegetation Luxuriant. Edu
eating Horses to Ptow Corn
In North Dakota.

The rain Friday night and the rain
of the preceding days Of last week.
followed by ideal growing. weather
for grain, have made vegetation and
crops look most luxuriant. Wheat Is
fairly bounding along in growth and
getting a big start over the weeds.
The worst feature Of the farm land
scape, from an agricultural point OF
view, is the yellow mustard which Is
now in blossom. Between James
town and Spiritwood Lakeland In any
other directions for that matter,
there are patches Of wild mustard
and in some fields the yellow color
fully conceals the green. Adjoining
fields show no mustard, proving that
carelessness In the matter Of seed or
neglect Of the proper work and pre-
caution are responsible for this pest,
which not only exhausts the land Of
fertility that should grow valuable
crops. but causes the farmer loss In
dockage of his grain for dirt at the
elevator, and II he ships he pays
freight on the foul seed. and he also
paws the thresher for threshing It,,
Mustard is losing proposition for
the farm which ever way it is looked
at.

new PERMIT LAW
New Hunting Permits are more
I'D Strict In Require.
ments.

The arrival at the county auditors
Office of the license blanks for hunt
ing permits under the new state laws
calls attention to several new and
rather unique requirements Of the
statutes. The hunter cannot as In
former years send in his application
together with IS cents and receive in
return from the county auditor his
hunting permit. Neither can resi-
dents from one part Of the state Sc.
cure licenses from the auditor Of
another county. The method of pro-
cedure now for out-of-town residents
is something like this. The hunter
must first procure an application blank
furnished by the state game and fish
board of control which reads as fol-
lows: I am bona f1de resident Of
............c county, North Dakota, and
have been during the past six months.
Witness. .Signer. ............
The applicant must include in the
application his age, weight, height,
and color of his hair and eyes. His
witness must be a reputable free
holder of the same county.
Just what the Minnesota hunters
who are accustomed to get licenses in
North Dakota vii do, is a mooted
question. The law reads that per-
mits can be issued only to residents
of the county and is backed up by the
requirement of witness to the sig
nature Of the applicant. That the
law will prevent the indiscriminate
issuance of licenses Is certain altho
it means considerable more work for
the county auditors.

The Adventist camp broke ]. up
Monday and draymen were busy
hauling tents, camp equipment and
household necessities to the depot
from which point most of those in
attendance left for their homes In
different parts of the state.
The Valley train contained an ex-
ira number of coaches all loaded with
Adventists going south. A special
train consisting Of five coaches and
baggage cars was run to Darlington
and from there west on the Sykeston
branch. The regular Northern train
was increased in size to take those
going to New Rockford, Leeds,
Rhodes and other points. Many left
for the east on the main line train.
The depot platform was piled high

AcRl. col. SHORT TALKS NO. 20

Late seeded fax Is a gamble, and
should be indulged in only when you
can afford to lose the seed, the labor,
and the crop.
In order to do the most good sum-
mer fallow must be finished before
the weed seeds mature.
The best and most profitable sum-
mer fallow Is that which produces q
crop at the same time that 1T de-.
stroys the weeds and cultivates the
soil. 'ssst
A bare summer fallow should be
narrowed to start the weeds and lat
er on disced In order to prevent their
going to seed.
Machinery put in order now for the
seasons run will save time and ex-
pense little later on.
The horses like grass pasture, bat
do not depend too largely upon 1t.
Harvest time will call for the best
there is in your teams.
Keep the corn plows going as late
In the season as possible, and run the
shovels as shallow as you can. Deep
cultivation cuts off a large percentage
of the surface feeding roots that will
be needed during the latter part OF
the season if the crop is TO be brot
to maturity.
The SOW and little pigs should have
cool shady place where they can
rest from the heat of the sun.
Accustom the colt to staying In
the barn or the paddock during the
time that the mare is working in the
field.
There is no time so good as that
from the present until harvest to
make note Of the places in the field
that need drainage, fertilizer, or q
different crop rotation. Note down
the color and condition Of the crop.
and later on in the season plan out a
crop rotation for the farm that shall
give to each field in turn clover
crop. cultivated crop, and manure.
These worked into q grain rotation,
will build up the land and increase
the fields.

C0RDEM ITO n CASE: J. 4 !!
OtMid1and Continental Ry.AgainHs''tE
Ripley Dismissed IN Dis
trict Court.

QoQl8l lGt5AlAOdu II 49, HssA.S o.
Joseph Ripley, brought to condemn
land wanted across the defendants
farm south of the city for right OF
way purposes, occupied the time Of
the court the greater part of Mon
day. A jury was impanelled to hear
evidence and assess damages, but no
evidence was submitted to the jurors
as to the value Of the land and the
damage which the construction OF
the road would entail, The court,
after a consideration Of several other
phases of the litigation dismissed,
without prejudice, the action brot by
the company. to condemn the land.
1t was moved by defendants attor-
neys. to dismiss the proceedings
chiefly on the ground that the rail-
road company had in this state no
property such as would warrant q be-
lief that it was about to construct a
railroad. The court stated to the
jury that there was no necessity un-
der the circumstances for condemna-
tion of the land at this time.
During the hearing Cashier De-
Nault. Of the James River National
bank testified that the Midland Con-
tinental road had q deposit of $1,000
in the bank subject to check by the
oif1cers OF the road in Chicago. Mr..
Hull, right Of way agent for the road
stated that the company had adeed
to strip. OF land on the Alison Wells
farm and also 4 large number of op-
tional contracts fol. right OF way
along various portions Of its proposed
line between Edgeley and jamestown,
and other points in the state; also
that the company owned surveying
outfit and, had done great deal OF
work in running survey lines and To-
eating line Of railroad in this state.
The deed to the Alison Wells land
was taken Saturday last and payment
in the amount Of q, $50 made for the
same, the land being III acres in ,ex-
tent. The reason why the purchase
Of this strip of right of way was
made Saturday last, after the begin
ming Of the suit, was stated by Mr..
Hull to be that at that time the OPP
tion on the land expired.
The court stated 1t was not its In
tention to prevent or obstruct IN any
manner the construction Of . rail-
road. as proposed, and when it ap-
reared that the construction of such
road was to be consummated the
necessary condemnation proceedings
for the right of way cou- d be begun
and brot3 to 3 conclusion In the court.
It is probable that an appeal will be
taken from this ruling of the court,
and the case carried to the supreme
court. The jury was dismissed from
further participation In the case, and
the court resumed consideration OF
other business.
The case Of Tubbs versus Johnson.
involving claim for land commits
sions was heard by jury Tuesday.
The amount, $500 was claimed to be
due on the sale of one-half section OF
land at q commission Of 81 per acre.
