Glen R. Kimball, formerly of Dead

at the home of his wife in Larimore
year or so ago after fourteen years Of
mysterious absence, is again in news
paper limelight as result of wanting
to get married again out in Oklaho-
ma: His disappearance fourteen years
ago and re-appearance :. after being
thought dead and buried and even a
monument placed over him, was; one of
the strangest happenings in the north.
west. What brought him back after
all the years and what took him away
in the first place are as much $ of. a
mystery today to both his family and
friends as it ever was. Mrs. Kimball
owns a fine farm ten miles from Lari-
more, is quiet, refined, se1f-reliant.
woman, who has with hard labor and
through great trials and tribulations.
managed to accumulate good land; and
stock about her. and make a home for
her daughter, now young lady at the
university and her aged mother. Whe-
ther a sudden realization Of this fact
brought him back Or a longing to see
his family again no. one knows. He
went as quietly as he came and short
ly afterwards Mrs. Kimballs brought
suit and obtained a divorce in Grand
Forks county. The publicity resulting
from his actions has been very obnox-
ious to her,. For weeks after he made
his strange appearance, newspaper
men even from ST.: Paul came out to
try and get at the bottom of the
strange mystery in regard to his disap-
pearance, etc. It is to be hoped now
she is through with him and may live
the rest Of her life in peace.

GAN fruit Be GROWN
CONNIE RCIALLy IN N. D.?

Grand Forks, Sept. 7, 1911-Can
fruit be grown commercially in North
Dakota and northern Minnesota? Ev-
eryone familiar with the territory
knows that certain of the wild fruits
grow in profusion along the timber
belts scattered through the northwest,
but the culture of the ordinary cult
waited fruits has, as rule, been un-
dertaken, if at all, merely as an in
teresting experiment, and on very
small scale. That fine fruits can be
grown here in paying quantities, with
ordinary care and in ordinary seasons
has been demonstrated by a few pee
pie, one of them being Oscar Wick IF
East Grand Forks.
| Mr.. Wick has been experimenting
with fruits and shrubs for many years,
and he is producing fruits which, in
kind and in quantity would astonish
people who suppose that the thing can,
not be done. Among other things that
are being. harvested now are plums. OF
this fruit he has something like doz-
en- varieties, and over 400 trees in all,
and nearly every tree is loaded almost
to the breaking point. The success of
plum culture here is fully demonstrate
ed.
Another fruit which has been tried
out and found successful is the CON-
pass cherry, which is not a true cherry
but a cross between the cherry and
the plum. In size and appearance it
resembles the wild plum, the cherry
and plum favors are combined in 1t.
Mr.. Wick has experimental with many
varieties of true cherries and says that
they are not to be recommended for
this climate, as their tendency to win
ter killing is so great as to'make them
improbable and undesirable. The COM
pass cherry, however, is perfectly har-
dy.
Another fruit rarely seen in this ter
ritory is the cultivated grape, which,
has been supposed to be impossible
here. Mr.. Wick has several hundred
Concord vines so heavily weighted
with full grown clusters as to break
down the trelli built for their support.
Light summer frosts do not injure
them. The vine is too tender to be:
left exposed in this climate over win
ter, and Mr.. Wick's method is to prune
the vines in the fall by cutting the
growth back to the fourth joint from
the root, and to bury the remaining
wood under a little earth. f =
Apples, including the Duchess and
Wealthy, and several varieties of crabs
have been grown successfully for years
by Mr.. Wick. ~ '@
Mr.. Wick has raised strawberries
for years and Iii marketing the fruit
has had the advantage that any north
ern grower has Of being close to mar
ket, Of having an article whose quality
cannot be equaled by the imported pro-
duct, and Of getting his fruit into mar
ket at a time when berries from all
Iother sources are exhausted. s,,>:. 3 y ! !.
II. the farmers OF the northwest could
be convinced that fruit raising here Is
practicable. not as a sport or q curl
1osity, but for the purpose Of supplying
ones own table with necessary and
delicious food and for purposes of rev
enus, the conditions of life on the
mort hWsassa farm would be- tsraailsi
fimproves. ss55
