Hope, N. D., July 2s.-About one
and one-half inches of rain fell this
morning, but too late to be of much
benefit to growing crops except corn,
potatoes, garden stuff and some late
sown wheat, oats and flax. What lit
tie wheat there is will be harvested
next week. It is reported to be thin
and short, but pretty we'll filled. Most
of the wheat in this vicinity will be
worth cutting and will run from five
to ten bushels to the acre, with an
occasional piece making more. ... =.

He Calls Mrs. SNOWFALL a Model Hen

and cluckS to IND herself famous.
This hen has appeared in Wilmington
and is the property Of a 14-year.old
boy, Lilbourne Martin. But she is not
native of Delaawre. No, she thanks
her feathers she was born at Bynum,
Nd. and thus good old Hartford coun-
ty adds another gem to the diadem Of
the state that made good eating IA
nous. Though black as colored poll
tician, she rejoices in the name Of
SNOWFALL, and as such will go down In
history.
For generations Maryland has been
famous for her chickens, and whether
they were fried a la Maryland or were
laid to rest in the old-fashioned pie,
they have served their country we'll
and have left pleasant memories be-
hind them. 1t is all the more crafty
ing to record that out of the heart OF
the fried-chicken belt has come this
phenomenal hen.
According to the records, she not
only lays two eggs a day, but some.
times varies it by contributing three.
All are perfectly fresh and suitable
for family use. If she can keep up
her record for a year this will mean
730 eggs, with a few extra for Christ
mas and the Fourth Of July: Ifsall the
eggs grow up into chickens Mrs.
SNOWFALL would soon have enough de-.
scendants to cluck around the World.
She deserves medal from Secretary.
Wilson and a cablegrams from Col:
Roosevelt for her efforts to prevent
race suicide. 81
Mrs. SNOWFALL is a model hen. She
never worries about the fashions "a!
feathers; she is not forever running
OFF to some barnyard by the sea or
chicken house in the mountains; she
does not try to shine at bridge or out
scratch her neighbors. She stays at
home, looks after Mr.. SNOWFALL and
the children and attends strictly to
business. Wherefore will she be re-
membered wherever the egg is held IN
honor and the chicken in esteem.

ulASH1NqTON.-For 20 years james
w Wilson, secretary Of agriculture,
has been sounding the praises of the
American hen. He has shown by sta
tistics, pictures, reports, omelets, soft
boiled eggs and spring chickens that
the American hen beats the world.
She Is not the possessor of great per-
sonal beauty, she does not aspire to
be butterfly of fashion, but is very
fine representative Of the housewife
type of chicken. If fine feathers made
fine birds she would not be in 1t. For
the peacock is a dazzler and the roos-
ter struts with an air that cannot be
initiated by his more modest compan-
ion who does the Homework and
scratches around for the children. But
the hen, by keeping steadily at work
and doing the best she can, has been
enabled to enrich this country by more
good dollars than all the silver mines
of the west and all the gold of the
klondike Statistics show that in a
single generation the American hen
lays eggs enough to make the Allan
tic ocean one vast omelet and fill the
Pacific with scrambled eggs. Placed
on top of one another they would
make a stack 10000 times as tall as
the Washington monument and almost
as high as the price of beef.
All this has been done by the one
egg day hen. But along with the
airships and the 26,000-ton battleships,
the two-egg hen has arrived. No, she
was not produced by Luther Burbank
by grating Leghorn chicken onto a
roe herring. She is just a plain, ordi
nary hen, who resolved to do her best
