RED RIVER VALLEYS GLORIOUS

sed by to give the valley black eye
on account of its climate. Every
furry of snow or change in tempera-
ture, such as are common oyer the
whole temperate zone, is ma gnified
many times and heralded broadcast.
Now what are the facts as to the eli
mate in the Red River valley in the
winter time. While it is true that we
have cold weather here for two or
three months, when the thermometer
registers ten, twenty, even thirty, but
very rarely forty below, yet it is g

FARMER AND BANKER.

Don't take your money out of the
bank and bury it. Dogs will dig it up
and destroy it. Don't put it in your
stockings because you can put your
stockings to better use by wearing
them. Don't wrap it up in an old
newspaper or an old rag and hide it
in some corner because the rats will
surely get hold of it and destroy it.
The house is no place for your money
anyway. Burglars get it and carry it
off, and then you lament your foolish
ness in taking it out of the bank. If
you want to invest your money let it
stay in the bank-,if it is there. All
this drawing money out Of the bank
and boarding it contracts the currency
and produces stringency in the mon
ey market. The times may be the
best imaginable and all the wise legis-
lation conceivable eadopted, yet a
panicky feeling can be started by a
concert of action OF the people in
withdrawing their deposits from the
bank. The money in thebanks does
| not belong to the banks. It is the
| peoples money. 1t is put in the banks
for convenience and safety. The
/ banks use it and the business mer
borrow it. The great share of the
business Of the country is done will

ARE HOLDING THEIR POTATOES
Farmers Along Red River Believed to
Have Large Supply on
Hand.

There is considerable discussion in
this section as to the amount Of .pota,
toes in the hands of the farmers, es-
:pecially the men extensively engaged
in raising the tubers.
The crop this year was about IS
per cent bigger than last year, and
what is interesting here is that the
increase in the Red River Valley and
North Dakota, In proportion, is more
than in any, other part of the coun-
try and the second interesting point
is that, SO far, no more potatoes have
been sold, so the inevitable condition
exists in the markets, that the supply
on hand is greater than ever and au-
thorities say the outlook fer the men
with large stocks of taters is not the
most rosy and if a reason is asked it
may be supplied as. follows: Seed
potatoes will sell at a fair price and
those not sold for seed at the end of
the season will have to- compete with
potatoes in Michigan and Wisconsin.
which are now being marketed at 20
and Is cents a bushel and against this
must be figured the great difference
in freight and mileage.
It is estimated that not per cent
of the crop at sabin, a great potato
shipping point, has been marketed,
and one authority declares that farm.
ers were allowing themselves to be
influenced without personally investi-
eating the situation and market con.
ditions for. themselves. At Barnes
vile it is said that not less than 10.
600 bushels are being boarded there.
It is not believed that the demand for
seed potatoes this year will be very
active. It is for the man who has q
crop of potatoes on his hands to wake
up and look out for himself and de-
eide whether he is consulting his best
interests by holding on. &C kstotn

THE RECORD RETlREe.

The Donaldson Record, which dur

tried to promote the best interests of

beginning Of the year for lack of sup
port. J.. It takes money and lots of II

and the people who the paper tries tc

too late. The Record says: r., ...-*,

schools. Not only will they receive
free of charge instruction in agricul-
ture, but also in manual training and
domestic science, and besides the
teacher of agriculture will be at the
service of the schools In the country
during the summer months, and can
be called upon by the farmers for help
and suggettions concerning the work
on the farm. He will visit them in
their homes, inspect their farms, study
theweed problems together with them,
and endeaver to make himself useful
to the farming community in many
ways" q
So that the good work is becoming
quite general. At the rate progress is
being made, If these schools do what
is hoped from them and the indica-
tions are that they are proving Of even
greater advantage than was anticipat-
ed by those who framed the law, it
will not be very long before agricul-
tural schools will be brought within
the reach of every boy and girl in the
State who wishes to avail themselves
of it's advantages.
State fair politics have become so
heated in st. Paul and there are so
many charges, and counter-charges
that strong under control has devel-
oped in favor of selecting some man
entirely independent of all factions

who seems to meet with the most fav.
or at this particular time is w. w. Siv
right, of Hutchinson. Mr.. Sivright, al
though a Republican, has been elected
to both branches of the legislature
from strong Democratic county. II
, 1906 he was chairman Of the Republi
can State convention at Duluth ant
was a model presiding officer. Mr.
Sivright is man of conspicuous ex
ecutive ability; is square in every
thing, and the people of Minnesota
will have reason to congratulate them
selves if he Is elected to any position
in the State Agricultural society. H
would have no enemies to punish an

having made any alliances that woul

Thirty below with us is not near as
.nnc ncomfortable as 10 below in Illinois.
We have no mud and slush to contend
with as they have farther south where
the temperature 6uctuates more from
above the freezing point to below the
freezing point where the moisture
laden air chills one to the very marrow.
People who have lived here few
years and gotten used to our winters
always prefer our winters to those
farther south, and many people, who
have moved away from here, have
come back because they cannot stand
the winters elsewhere. We generally
do not have as much snow as farther
south. At present we have about
nine inches Of snow, while nothern
Illinois and Iowa and parts Of Wis
consin is coverd to q depth Of 15 to
20 inches. During the past week or
two severe storms have been raging
in many eastern and southern states,
and railway and telegraph traffic de-.
layed on account thereof, while we
in this valley have enjoyed the most
delightful kind of weather. It is fact
that railway trains on roads travers-
ing this valley are seldom or never
late from causes originating in ths
valley. Last winter the Great North
ern flyer which runs daily between
Winnipeg and st. Paul was late but
once or twice the whole winter and
never missed trip. Here in Warren
are four rural routes and it Is seldom
that any Of the carriers miss trip
in the winter on account of the wealth.

Physicians all agree that people here
suffer much less from colds during
the winter months than do the people
in more southern latitudes. The pure
dry winter air exhliarates and invig

certainly awakened in the minds
