The article says:
Further evidence of the advance OF
the agricultural development Of sec
ton which is rapidly putting an end
to the extensive sheep raising indus
try of the past is shown in the con-
summation of a $250,O00 deal just
closed whereby S. j. Dunlap OF Man

acre tract near Forsyth which former
ly was used by the Rea Bros. Sheep
Co., as a sheep range
The influx Of settlers into this coun-
try and the cultivation Of the many
dry farms i'm the vicinity of Forsyth
has forced the Rea brothers to sell
the old Cold Springs ranch which
has played no small part in the his

WITH THE WOMEN
or THE WORLD.

The cause Of conservation OF ma
tional resources, which has become one
OF the most important and vital topics
OF the day, is one that is being
championed by some of the more pub
lie spirited women prominent in pub
lie life today. This subject was pre-
scented at the New York chautauqua
assembly in the hall of philosophy at
Lake Chautauqua, N. Y, a few days
ago by two able lecturers who talked
of the Saving Of Bird Life and Ameri-
can Waterways.
Mrs. Virginia Sharpe Patterson.
naturalist, playwright, appointee of
Governor Marshall to supervise the
rivers and harbors of Indiana and
well known as the author OF Dickey
Downey and other stories, devoted
herself to the subject of the relation
of the birds to the human family and
their usefulness to the farmer. She
denounced the wearing of feather
trimmings and said society In gem
eral ridiculed the bonnets of the Dun
kard women. made without so much
as a rosette to redeem their plain
ness, but If the souls of the fashion
able women were as innocent of the
sins OF bird slaughter as are theirs,
the world would be far better.
Mrs. Patterson advocated the plan
of interesting the farmers in protecting
| quail by leaving a fringe of wild
grasses along the fence line In which
4 these timid birds may hide; also to
| ask the park commissioners in the
4 larger municipalities 20 erect bird

! campaign, started in Indiana by Mrs.
/ Patterson, advocating the periodical
visiting Of the public schools and the
giving out Of patterns to the school
! children from which to make these
houses. has been most satisfactory in
results. Her latest work, The Lady
1 of the Green Scarf, embodies the prin-
ciples Of conservation advocated by
Mrs. Patterson wIliles he was at the
head OF the Indiana forestry commit
tee.
The other speaker was Mrs. j. ID
i Wilkinson Of Shreveport, La, a wo-
man well known throughout the south
/ and identified with many lines of pub
lie work. Her subject was Water
ways. She has been connected with
i the conservation movement from itl
start and made 1t plain in her ad.
dress wherein lies the duty Of every
citizen in studying the economic con.
ditions arising from lack of water
supply She stated that water stand:
second only to air In importance fol

and wanton waste America is con.
fronted by great crisis.
She advocated the Improvement 20

liness was the keynote of her address
, Both OF these women have throw
their whole souls into the conserva
: ton movement. Their energies cove
d large field OF useful effort in variel
lines. IN each they have made thei
influence felt.

IN THE HOTEL L0BBIES

Among the ctty's visitors today was
O. A. LeGrand of Toronto. Can, who
was seen this morning in the lobby
OF the Elliott hotel. Mr.. LeGrand is
prospective North Dakota farm land
purchaser and though he arrived on a
rather chilly day in midsummer, he
is quite impressed with the climate
of this section OF the northwest and
thinks the country around Fargo is
ideal.
Ed Gates of Madison, Wis, is one of
the city's visitors today. Mr.. Gates
errand to Fargo Is to look over the
farming lands In the Red river val
ley which are SO far-famed.
Everybody knows of the Red river
farming country" said Mr.. Gates this
morning in the Elliott lobby. I'm fact
don't suppose there is any farming
land with a wider and more favor
able reputation for it's fertility and
richness outside OF the Nile valley in
Egypt, than right here along the Red
river Of the north.
G. e. Van Ness of Newark, o., a
guest at the Gardner hotel, was one
of this mornings arrivals in the city.
Mr.. Van Ness likes Fargo from its
general appearance, though he had
only been through the main business
streets near the hotel and the N. p.
station.
"We are having good crops down in
Ohio, this year" he said this morning.
"rhe corn Is doing splendidly ana the
wheat Is good, though Ohio Is not the
wheat state that North Dakota is by
and means, OF course. But all our
crops down home this year Will be
good"
Charles r. Butterfield of Albert Lea,
| Mimi, we'll known in this city, was
seen this morning at the Gardner.

ness trip and said he thought Fargo
looked more prosperous than he had

Theodore Roosevelt can afford to re-

Mark Twain in some writings just UNI

men was no better than other persons
OF less prominence in the literary world,
and perhaps he erred when he called
Roosevelt that "showy charlatan" and
disastrous burden AT any rate, peo-
pie in sizing up Twain's opinion should
bear in mind that the late authors asso-
Citations were generally with men who
were the most bitter enemies of Roose-

more or less influenced by the ideas he
gathered in such association. The ae-

in better position to judge whether or
not he was a Snowy charlatan," etc.

MAJOR LEMUEL A. ABBOTT.

While taking lesser rank than many
another officer in the service of the
United States, the late Major Lemuel A.
Abbott, whose death is chronicled to-
day, lost nothing in comparison with
any in the loyalty of the service which
he gave, He was deeply imbued with
the spirit of patriotism and love of
country, and when he was only a youth
in school he was prompt to offer his serv-
ices during the early period of the Civil
war 1t has been said that he was the
first to enlist from Barre but that
statement, we are informed, is incorrect,
inasmuch as many other young patriots
had volunteered while he was yet in
school, However, it is said that to
his action in enlisting was largely due
the recruiting of company in this
vicinity, following his return from
school. He came when large number
of men were hanging back, unwilling to
enter the service for one reason and an
