The large stock barns on Mrs Della
Benefits farm, about four miles from
Evansville on the Albany road, were
totally destroyed by fire Friday even
ing. A span of horses valued at about
four hundred dollars, belonging to the
tenant, Mr. Lint, were in one of the
barns and were suffocated before they
could be released. The blaze occurred
about o'clock and was of very mys-
ferrous origin.
William Let's, who lives two miles
south of Magnolia corners, had the
misfortune Wednesday afternoon to
lose by fire barn, two tobacco sheds,
hen house, one team of horses and all
his farming implements. 1t seems that
his children were playing in the barn
with fireworks and that in this way the
blaze was started. The loss will amount
to between 81, 900 and $4,000, which is
partially covered by insurance.

A Cheerful Letter.

WAITING ON THE FARMERS

What is the matter with republican
prosperity? In Wall street it has turn
ed into mighty neal a panic. The iron
and steel business, which is lookep upon
as a barometer of the trade, is in the
dumps. The cotton and other textile
mills are only working On half time.
And SO on. Everything is waiting on
the farmers. If the crops average we'll,
business will revive but the yield
of wheat is poor in spots and there will
be less than an average. Apparently
the cotton crop will fall below the aver
age. All eyes are turned on the corr
crop which, although the drouth has
injured it in the Southwest, may be a
fair average. In any event, "the best
republican tariff bill ever enacted" does
not seem to be doing its full duty OF
producing prosperity, and this will com
pei the republican spell binders, during
the next few weeks, to revise their old
speeches, that the republican party is
the prosperity producer, and explain
what is the matter with Taft, "Teddy"
and the tariff, The insurgent republican
can blame it on Cannon and Aldrich
and still declare that the new tariff is as
bad as they claimed it to be, and the
farmers will do the rest--that is, give US
a democratic victory.

The University of N. D., catalog and

1901, which has recently been publish
ed, has been materially enlarged and i'm
proved. The arrangement has been
changed, and on the whole the volume
is very handy for reference. 1t is in
teresting to note the activities that are
being carried on at our own state un
versity, and it's wonderful growth dur
ing the past few years. The university
now has fourteen finely equipped build

college has erected on an adjoining
campus two fine residence halls and a
conservatory of music building. During
the past year several additions have
been made to the courses Of study offer

MiSton's creamery business during the
month of July showed quite an excess
of business over the previous month.
Thirty-fivs patrons of the creamery drew
checks for amounts exceeding SIS; the
party disposing of the most cream, or
butter fat, being William Shelley, whose
farm is south of Langdon. His cheek
for last month amounted to S49.0l. The
Milton creamery has of late had a
number of farmers from the vicinity OF
L%angdon shipping cream there who will
transfer their business to TIE Langdon
creamery as soon as it opens for business.
There are others north of Langdon who
have this summer made shipments to
Fargo and Park River creameries, all of
which will naturally come to Langdon,

SOME CENSUS FIGURES.

The forecast is that under the new
census the center of population will not
move far from its present point. The
increase in population will be large, but
the distribution of 1t will not be credited
in as large proportion, as has been the
case IN some former census years, to the
West.
Texas will show great gains. Rhode
Island will perhaps lead all the states in
percentage of gains. Many eastern states
will show a large increase in foreign
! population. The Southwest is growing
rapidly. According to some of the
forecasts Rhode Islands census total
will be 542,379, agains 42S,556 for the
census of 1900.
This means a gain of more than twenty
six per cent. 1t is believed that New
York will show a relatively greater gain
than will be credited to some of the
middlewest states. N. Dakota will make
a good showing, and, of course, Montana
will. Fol the whole country the increase
will probably be less than twenty per
cent what was hopefully predicted by
some of the census specialists.
For the fiscal year that ended with
the last day of June the country's popu-
lation statistics, wherein immigration is
involved, are available. The total num-
Der of aliens admitted was 1,151,570. In
only two former years has the total been
larger than this. In the lead were the
Italians with 1868 persons. Poles came
next with 1913, 342.

Farmers over the county will this year
find a lot of their attention directed to
corn as a grain crop for stock feeding
and no doubt give the question of its
possibility as a North Dakota growing
crop serious consideration. No less than
half a dozen cars of Dakota grown corn
have been sold on track here at Langdon
to farmers nearby, who find that the
drouth of the past summer has made the
grain feed for their horses and stock a
problem facing them until another crop
is harvested. North Dakota is fast
making its entry into the corr growing
belt of states and the vigorous way in
which it is able to withstand drouth is
one of the many, features which quite
strongly recommends its being given a
place IN the crop rotation system of
many farmers next spring.

years and is based on figures that can
not be juggled. The growth in the

from the years 1908 and 1909, which was
close to fifty millions of dollars or
