EVIDENCE OF A
DOUBLE MURDER

Pine City. Mimi, June 26.-That a
double murder was committed in a
lonely spot midways between the town
of Bruno and the construction camp
of the 500 road was demonstrated by
coroner and jury. The bodies # two
laborers, evidently belonging to the
railway building crew, were found in
the brush the day before. They were
Hungarians and had been beat to death
and robbed. The double murder is sup
posed to have been committed ten days
or more ago. The clothes OF the vic
tins had been stripped, not only Of all
money and valuables, but of every
scrap Of paper which might have If
forded some means for Identification.
They were killed with q big club which
was found beside their bodies. Other
foreigners from the camp or tramps
are suspected of the outrage. There is
no clue to work upon and it is not
likely the fiendish murderePs will be
punished. The bodies were buried at
Bruno

FINE ANIMAL DISPLAY

The modern circus manager, kaliz-
ing the fact that the majority of man
kind is keenly interested in wild ami
mails, strives to make his geological
collection strikingly attractive.
The Barnum & Bailey show which
will exhibit in Fargo Monday next,
claims to have the rarest and most
varied collection of wild and curious
animals ever seen. The animals of the
ruminant tribe are particularly rare,
and here are splendid specimens Of
their kind. Rare specimens of Alpine,
African and Asian antelopes are
shown, African giriffes, five herds of
elephants, said TO be the rarest col
lection in the world, nylghaus, spring
boks and very rare Niger antelopes.
The animals Of the cat family are,
without question, the finest, whether
taken singly or collectively. There is
one cage Of FIVE grand, full-grown
lions; another contains several fe-
males. There is another cage of three
enormous tigers-one of them said to
be the largest in captivity. The Loop
ards are beautiful specimens of their
kind, and there is another cage Of
ferocious panthers. There Is a cage
Of laughing hyenas and another of ST.
berian wolves. There are a number Of
the largest bears in captivity. There
are four droves Of Arabian camels.
five herds OF African and Asiatic ele-
plants, Hindu sacred cattle, water
buffalo from India, Arctic sea lions
and seals A large collection of ST.
milan life forms the most amusing
feature of the collection. The doors
of the menagerie are opened one hour
before the circus performance begins,
thus enabling all patrons to enjoy the
wonders of the animal life without
extra charge.

POPULATION OF UNITED STATES
AND THE SUBSISTENCE PROBL EN-

Frequent assertions chat the fertility
of the soils is washing into the streams
and that the productivity of cultivated
land is diminishing are misleading the
public into the belief that the agricul-
ture Of this country is decadent and
that there is life in the old formula
that population must tend to increase
at a greater rate than subsistence.
So states the chief of the bureau of
statistics of the department of agri-
culture in his annual report for 1910
at the beginning of a discussion of the
ability of agriculture to maintain pop
ulation in this country.
Historical Phases.
The situation can not be understood,
he says until it is examined historic
ally. This Is a country in which mil
lions upon millions Of acres of fresh
land have been coming into production
faster than the domestic consumption
has required, and at times beyond the
takings of importing foreign countries.
AS eminent man as Gen. Francis A.
Walker expressed the telief that under
such circumstances farmers on the
fresher soil were economically justi-
fed in robbing the land.
All of the historical phases of agri-
culture now exist in this country. First
the "soil robber;" next the diminish
ing production per acrs on "inexhaust-
ible land" which surprises the farmer;
next the agricultural scientist, who
points out the way to a better agri-
culture and larger production per
~ xrffh -
farmers.
In the course OF time, especially
when the next and perhaps the third
generation takes the farms, important
advances are made, at first irregui arly
and mostly on farms Of the leading
class and subsequently with increas-
ing diffusion and accelerated speed.
For many years there have been
fresh lands with rather high but sta
tionary production, older lands with
declining production, old lands begin
ming to improve, and some lands well
advanced in Improvement. AS the en-
tire cultivated area Of each crop the
national average production per acre
has varied.
In the meantime the competition of
new land consuming some of its capi-
tai in the production of crops has re-
tarded, If not prevented, the improve
ment of old land needing conservation
and a gain in fertility. The improve
ment Of the older land is not an aca-
demic question of conservation Of
national resources, but 1t is to be
worked out in the enieavors of farm
ers to get a living, and better one, an
end that can not be attained by sud-
den high production ger acre large
