a Russians First Encounter With

a Russians First Encounter With
English In London.
A Russian tells a funny story of his
first encounter with the English Ian
guage.
The day after his arrival in London
he made call on a friend in Park
lane and on leaving inscribed in his
notebook what he supposed to be the
correct address.
The next day. desiring to go to the
same place again, he called a cabman
and pointed to the address that he had
written down. The cabman looked him
over, cracked his whip and drove away
without him.
|, This experience being repeated with
two or three other cahmen, the Rus
sian turned Indignantly to the police,
with no better results. One officer
would laugh, another would tap his
head and make motion initiating the
revolution Of wheel, and so on.
Finally the poor foreigner gave it
up and with a great deal Of difficulty,
recalling the landmarks which he had
observed the day before, found his way
to his friends house. Arrived there
and in company with one who could
understand him, he delivered himself
of a severe condemnation of the cab
men and the police Of London for their
impertinence and discourtesy.
His friend asked for look at the
mirth provoking address and the mys-
terry was solved This was the entry:

Early Maturing Corn.

Early Maturing Corn.
In the following article Prof. Hol-
ten, an Iowa grain expert, tells how
early-maturing corn may be obtained:
minnesota will raise corn as q
grain crop clear to the upper
boundary before many years and land
values will double as they always do
in corn states. The way to hasten
such a desirable consummation is to
plant only early-maturing varieties,
however small of ear, remembering
the larger number of ears will so COM
pensate for the smaller size as to
make the yield per acre practically as
large as that from bigger ears in Min
nesota localities where the latter will
mature. Then, each year, let the
farmer select for next seasons plant
ing the ears which have matured
earliest, and which are otherwise the
most desirable for seed. By this
course an earlier day OF maturity may
be secured until the corn crop can be
depended on to ripen il advance of
any probable frost even on the upper
boundary"

SATISFIED With
NORTH DAKOTA

Minot, N. D., Feb. l.-C. A. Grow
| is back from tour of the south and
Southwestern states. Mr.. Grow has
been away for several weeks, spending
portion of his time in Texas, and he
visited the principal cite sin Texas,
Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky, Mis-
fsouri and Ohio.
"The more you see of those states the
better you like North Dakota" said Mr..
Grow. Il would not trade section of
North Dakota land for a township in
Texas; there has been no rainfall in
Texas for two years. In the city of
Dallas the water is turned on two hours
a day, and the people must draw their
supply for twenty-four hours during the
time it is turned on. The tide of immi-
grafton into Texas has slumped off ,
and while there are countless boosters
and land-sharks all over the state, it
is hard matter to get northerner to
invest his money in Texas land after he
has investigated it.
81 find trade conditions lax in all of
the cities I visited. Business men gen.
orally admit that business is slow and
that money is tight. I think we North
Dakotans have much to be thankful for
and you can put it down that l am
going to remain right here in western
North Dakota. 1t is good enough for
