JEWS IN UNITED KINGDOM
Number Under . Quarter Of a Million
and Are Mainly In the
BIG Cities.

According to statistics there are &C
the present time about 100000 Jews
in the United Kingdom, mainly In
London and the other large cities Of
England. The Jews being rated
among the greatest merchants in the
world, II is but natural that they
should flock to the cities where the
widest field for their industry Is to be
had.
In England there Is popular say
ing that there are no Jews in Scot
land. Although this 1t not literally
true. It is fact that there are not
many of them In that part of the
United Kingdom. Mark Twain Is au-
thority for the statement that In the
last half hundred years only one Jew
has Lived In Scotland. He says that
one moved to Edinburgh. and before
he realized It the canny Scots had
him so well trimmed of his worldly
goods that he never afterward had
enough money to escape from the
country. It is feared. however that
the humorist has slightly exaggerated
the story.
There are comparatively few Jews
in Ireland, the large majority of the
100000 being in London, Liverpool
and two or three others of the largest
English cities.
Just as they do in this country. the
Jews of England ask no other race to
assist them in the maintenance OF
their own poor. Through well-organ-
lied charities they take care of all the
poor and destitute, raising nearly
81 10000 annually for religious and
benevolent purposes

Celebrate The 18th Of JULY at WARREN
JUNE FIRE ON PRAIRlES.

Crookston, Mimi, June 2S.-The
remarkable spectacle of a
pralre fire in June attracted
great attention from residents
near Dugdale yesterday when the
farm owned by Nels Peterson, of the
Crookston State Bank was swept from
one end to the other by fierce fire
which it is believed originated from
sparks from a locomotive. The
house, barn and granary were COM
pletely destroyed. Fortunately the
buildings were vacant.
The owner and Deputy Fire Ranger
Guy Munroe went out today to inves-
tigate.
The excessive dryness as shown by
this fire at this time of the year is
something never before heard of in
June.
Most of the fire was through stubble
left from last fall, which was grown
up with weeds, but they burned like
so much tinder.

HAY PRICE GOING UP.

For the first time in twenty years
hay costs more than bran and shorts,
and the supply of the Northwest is
practically burned out by the recent
drouth. Hay is now coming from Kan.
sas, Missouri and Oklahoma. Hay is
selling at from SIG to $40 per ton.
Never before have Twin City hay
dealers had to go south so early in
the year for their supply. The LOTUS
Hubbard company comments as fol-
lows on the situation: 'The recent
rain failed to retard the bullish senti-
ment which has been the controlling
factor Of late in the market. Every
indication points to continuance of
high prices. No amount of rain will
now restore the normal crop of tim
othy and clover in the Northwestern
states. The quantity of hay in the
hands of local dealers is limited. It
will be necessary for our jobbers to
go to Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma
for this supply. Prices will range
from IS to ST above last year. We
predict for the new timothy and clover
crop a higher value than it has OBJ
tanned since the drouth of 1901. st.

The Oslo team was practically the

when they played Argyle last.
The game started with rush off

SURVEYS LINE FROM HUTcHlN-

WINNIPEG As APPARENT GOAL.

Sauk Center, Mimi, June PA
crew of sixteen surveyors, in the en-
ploy of the Chicago Milwaukee & St.
Paul road is working in this vicinity
and will be here by Sunday.
This crew has surveyed a bee line
from Hutchinson to Sauk Center, pass
ing one mile west of Litchf1eld and
one mile east Of Paynesville. From
Paynesville the line runs directly
through the garden section of Stearns
county. The line enters the city linn
it's Of Sauk Center a short distance
est Of the Great Northern tracks and
will run parallel to them to a point
three miles northwest of the city.
The engineer of the crew is non
committal as to the destination OF the
line further than that it will run
northwesterly from Sauk Center.
From authority that appears to be
good it is learned however, that the
road is headed for the Lake of the
Woods or Winnipeg, or both. On the
way it will probably touch the west
shore Of Red Lake.
As the Milwaukee is Hartman
line, it is believed here that the com
pany is, in this instance, carrying out
it's we'll known policy of invading Hill
territory. With this extension OF the

waukee will be in a position not only
to open new territory but to compete
for traffic with the Great Northern.

PLANT CORN
FOR FODDER
BULLETIN FOR FARMERS ISSUED
BY DEAN SHEPHERD OF
NORTH DAKOTA.

Grand Forks, N. D. June 28.-With
the failure Of the hay crop this year
farmers are being urged to cast about
for some means of providing forage
for the coming winter season, and in
q special press bulletin issued by Dean
J. H. Shepperd, Of the state agricul-
tural college, the question is quite
thoroughly taken up.
'1The hay crop for 1910 is very
short" said Dean Shepperd, and
stockmen now have before them the
question Of providing provender for
next season. Fortunately, a dry season
is usually followed by a rainy late sea-
son, which gives a chance for late
sown forage crops to make a great
growth.
There is land summer fallowed
each year and all such land which has
been plowed can now be seeded to
corn or millet and produce a good
supply of rough feed for carrying the
stock through the winter.
"In the season of 1900 l planted
corn on a. field of ten acres which
had narrowed some time before, and
I received a yield of over four tons
of dry fodder to the acre. used con-
mon feed corn, planting it with a
drill in rows wide enough apart to be
cultivated by a corn harrow, and thick
in the row, about grain OF corn in
every two or three inches.
"This field was planted on July I
and because of the work that had been
done on the land, it was in splendid
condition. There was plenty of mols'
ture following and the result was
good, and all that could be expected
"Corn and millet are hot-Weatner

ESTABLISH RURAL ROUTES.
steenerson Has Talk With Taft Reia-
tive to Situation in
Minnesota.

washington, June Zy.-Representa-
tive Steenerson had a long talk with
the president today and secured the
promise of his help in the matter OF
getting the postmaster general to aid
in the establishing Of rural routes.
Through a desire to make a record
for economy in his department, Mr.
Hitchcock has for a year and more
been holding up rural routes.
Mr.. Steenerson has about dozen IN
his district, which year ago were IN
vestigated and recommended. The
money to establish them was appro-
priated by congress. In North Dakota
there are many more than that. IN
Montana there are several. Taking
the country as whole, the number
is in excess of LOO.
Mr.. Hitchcock's reason for refusing
to carry out the orders OF congress
and expend the money set aside for
r,iraI routes, is the claim that there
is a deficit in the treasury. Ihls MT.
Steenerson denies. The president told
Mr. Steenerson he had had many COM
plaints such as his. but not quite so
emphatic in character, and he prom
ised that he would get after Mr.. Hitch
cock at the cabinet meeting today
and find out what could be done.
(The delay in establishing the pro-
nosed new route at Warren is ex-
planned by the ahove). s@t.-
