Darlington Crowds Cars.
CARRlNGTON, June BOWEL here
is where the Farmers Institute train
officials and others take off their hats
and get their high water gauges.
They thought that Sheldon had the
palm but Darlington is now ahead
of anything along the entire line in
numbers and enthusiasm. But it does
not end with numbers and enthusiasm
as the lecturers say that this was one
of the most intelligent audiences en-
countered along the entire route.
There was an earnestness shown in
the faces of the young men that is
wo.th much. 1t BODIES something
worth while for the country. 1t is
iml ossible to estimate the value of
the work being done by the Agricul-
tural College and the N. P. Railway
Company. One man in the crowd said
that he had been enough in the way
of the separation Of wild oats from
the seed to be sown to far more than
pay for the day spent to say nothing
of the many other things that he had
seen.
Cars Crowded All the Time.
From the~time the train was stop.
ped and the doors of the cars opened
until closing time there was one
throng going through the train.
And it was not wild oats and grain
separators alone that attracted the
people, but from the horticultural car
to the one on to the domestic science
car the results were the same and the
open field around the fiat cars where
the electric plant. the poultry yards
and the live stock is exhibited there
was one continual jam of people.
A tired lot of pepole closed the
demonstrations, but the lecturers
were we'll pleased even if tired.
Prospects Of a New Railroad.
There is quite little railroad talk
here regarding proposed Inc from
Moose Jaw, Canada, to the Gulf OF
Mexico. 1t appears that there is con-
siderable probability of the road be-
ing constructed and it is claimed that
Darlington is to be one of the main
stations. The Darlington Record
says:
"Messrs. Jenkins and Weaver, of
London and Henline and Hildreth of
Kansas. were in Carringto Tuesday,
dat the Commercial club rooms met
with a number of our business men.
These men are interested in the con-
struction of a continental railroad.
from the gulf of Mexico to earring
ton and On to Moose Jaw Can. These
men at this time are looking over
the route, gathering statistics and
looking over the route. The plan is
feasible one and the men behind
the project are sound business men,
and the financing of the road is al
ready assured"
Cam pmeeting at Darlington.
The Seven Day Adventists are hold
ing their camp meeting at Darlington
and many people are in attendance.
St. Henry also made a flight in his
aeroplane.
P1NGREE, June 20.-There was a
good sized crowd awaiting the Farm
ing Special at this point tonight.
The thing that struck the people
on the train with the most force was
the sight of about three hundred milk
cans on the station platform ready to
load on the Wilton branch train. The
report was circulated that Tuesday
night when the train came in from
that line that there was four hundred
cans of cream on the train for ship
ment to St. Paul. The station agent
was hunted up and asked to verify
the report.
He said that it was correct. And
not an unusual shipment either. If
that is the way cream is shipped now
what will be the result when regular
train service is established and the
farmers prepare for the business?
Best Crop Prospects for Years.
A large part Of the eastern half OF
The state has now been covered and
the crop prospects carefully examiu-
ed at twenty four stops. It is safe
TO say that such prospects have not
been seen for years. The growth is
strong and healthy. The stand ex-
ce1lent. An abundance Of moisture.
fro~ '~~~> fowl weeds and
everything favorable except a IT,
late. This condition applies to all
crops except corn. Corn is small and
not a very good color
What viii the Western Part Of the
State Do?
This stop finishes the work east OF
The Missouri river until after the
country west Of the river Is covered.
And many are asking II that section
and Bismarck on the return will show
~ as well as the eastern part Of the
state. The friends OF that section
claim that 1t will. but now it Is up
10 the west Missouri country to make
good.
