The Missouri slope is steadily COM

these western counties for five years
have begun to make their impression
on the land, and it is no longer a
vast sea of short grass. Fields of
wheat and flax, oats and even corn
are replacing the ranges, farm build
ings show on the landscape every
where, and thriving towns are spring
ing up where used to be way sta
lions.
The heaviest of the land rush is
over. There is no longer the excite
ment of the homeseekers' excursions.
BY contrast things seem quiet, espec-
tally around the land offices, but the
slope country is just fairly entered
on it's era of substantial growth as
an agricultural ection. Settlers are
still coming, and in large numbers.
Relatively, the movement this year is
small, but actually it is large, and
the men now coming to western
North Dakota are coming to buy;
most of them to settle permanently.
In the excursion days men often
came time after time without buying,
or, else to pick up quarter or half

seekers mean business. The example
of the: thousands D who are coming

ILLUSTRATED LECTURE.
The illustrated lecture at the Pres
Dyterian church tonight is sure to be
of interest, not only to Presbyterians,
but to all who find satisfaction in
studying the lives Of great moral
leaders.
1t is the 400th anniversary of the
birth of John Calvin, the great Ger
man reformer. He completed the
work that Luther commenced. His
environment was Lake Geneva and
the Alps; and a number of carefully
selected views will add interest to
the lecture and contribute to the in
formation concerning Calvin. No

extended to all who are Interested.

ues. 1t is good land for diversified
farming, too, and farmers all over
the states are turning to other crops.
The wheat acreage in the eastern
part will be decreased this year on
account Of the tendency to rotation.

acreage of the western counties,
doubt if the state as whole will
show any increase over last year."

SELL FOR So PER HUNDRED
Highest June Price for Live Hogs
Since 1882.

Chicago, June 1.-THE highest June
price for live hogs since 1852 was es-
tablished 81 the Union Stock Yards.
Best Dorsers sold at IS per hundred
pounds. With the exception OF 1902
this is the highest price recorded for
any month since the Cudahy pork cor
ner in lS9&. when live hogs sold at
1915 a hundred weight.
The prevailing htgh prices are due
to unusually light receipts of live hogs
this spring at all Western packing
centers. the extremely high price Of
grain last year prompting many farm.
ers TO dispose of stock rather than
pay for feed stuff. Receipts of hogs
at the nine leading markets of the
West were $4,000 head less than for
the corresponding day last week and
32,650 less than the receipts a year
ago. AS a result Of the scarcity Of
hogs the price of provisions is now
the highest in many years.

Memphis. Tenn, June ia fYen-

men in gray for the son of the man
who defeated them marked the final
scene OF the nineteenth annual re.
union of the United Confederate Vet
Grams. 1t took place during the pa
rade. In the reviewing stand stood
General Frederick Dent Grant of the
United States army, A cavalry di-
vision approached and its command
ing officer, old and grizzled, peered
steadily at General Grant a moment.
Then he turned in lis saddle and
yelled: Come on, you kids: here's
General Grant ONE to life again in
his SON."
With one of the oldtime rebel wells,
the division charged on the stand and
jostled n another for an opportunity
to shake the hand OF the son of their
oldtime enemy. From that moment,
every sray-clad veteran Who could
reach the stand rushed up to shake
hands with General Grant. The stocky
army officers cold gray eyes filled
with tears and his shoulders shook
with emotion as he murmured: God
bless yo'l all, boys. God bless YOU
