Field
Rx Staff Corresponde e ut.

DICKINSON, N. d., Oct. 30.-Dlck-
ins0n is one of the most famous towns
in the Northwest. 1t is still of the
cow country, and it is also taking
pride in its agricultural triumphs. 1t
claims for its own some of the best
known ranchers of the Northwest, and
at the sane time Stark boasts OF grain
fields as rich and as wide as can be
found in days travel.
But the beautiful saddle is as much
admired there today as it was in the
old days, and the man of mettle re-
fuses to think about the passing of
the frontier The saddle horse is as
much loved as he used to be, and
when the old rancher uses gasoline
conveyance to take him across the
ciuntry he does it with a sigh. And
he apologies to his 'old hoss" sin
cerely and fervently.
One of the most conspicuous fig
ures in Dickinson is Daniel Manning.
Old fellows like Senator Simpson and
Ed. Hughes have been known to call
him Uncle Dan,' and receive proper
rebukes. He is the youngest member
of Dickinson Lodge OF Elks, and has
been a faithful student of rhun drum
for several months. Mr.. Manning is
the gentleman for whom the county
seat Of Dunn county was named. He
was a cOmpatriot Of Alexander Nc
Kenxie, Alex McAskell and other
youngsters who came into the country
as boys and have seen It develop. Mr..
Manning used to haul hay to the forts,
and was later a contractor on his
own hook. ne has been chased by
the Indians but still wears his own
hair. He was some runner, being
built for reaching the high places at q
single step. Mr.. Manning says that
he merely goes to California each win
ter so that he can better appreciate
the glorious climate of North Dakota
to whose much loved bosom he re-
turns in the early spring, when he
checks up the movements of Jack
BrOdie, gentleman now engaged in
coal mining, and who, like James F.
Shea, has been receiving his first les
sons in the white mans code from
Mr.. Manning. All that Mr.. Manning
is remaining in Dickinson for now,
instead of being in California writing
fish stories back home, is his desire
to vote for Taft. He says that he
wants to do that one thing before he
leaves and then he will start for the
sunset slopes. He is mighty fine
man, a good citizen and one of the
most interesting pioneers in the West.
There is a certain pathos when you
see the old timers who have taken
SO heartily to agriculture after max
ing history as ranchers. But they
farm well. Rasmus Jensen came In
through a storm that first night from
his broad and rich acres near Oak
dale. He is a splendid farmer and
his fine barn can Oe seen for miles.
He farms with the same industry and
thOughtfulness that he used to ride
the range. Bill" Follis, who was a
rider of the range with Roosevelt,
was ir Dickinson with broken

.CARBOL|C ACID
CAUSE OF WOODS
Death AT MINOT

MINOT, N. D., Oct 30.-vance
Woods, the Great Northern baggage
man, who died in local drug store
under mysterious circumstances,
drank carbolic acid That finding
was made by the coroner's jury at the
conclusion of the inquest.
It is believed that Woods was on
his way to the drug store TO secure
relief when he fell, as he had just
stepped inside the doors of the place
when he reeled over. He made feeble
attempts to call for help as he went
to the floor, but when the clerks
reached him he was dead.

Special To The Tribune. TT--
MEDORA. Oct. J0.--The rain of Sun
day night was followed by snow, which
continued all OF Monday. Over ten
inches fell. The wheat in this coun-
ty is probably half threshed; that un-
threshed is mostly in the shock, very
little being stacked. Much Of the flax
is uncut, and that which is cut is ln-
threshed, and laying on the ground.
Weather is warm Today and snow is
melting. If the weather does not
turn warm there will be great loss
to the farmers; perhaps o yer
million dollars worth OF grain will be
lost.

What GEORGE CALVIN Did
n SUPPLYING NATIVE LINE

In the year 1884 George Calvin took
sandstone from a little hill on section
2, township 1873. range "a Stark. county.
and built a kiln after the usual fashion
of burning lime, and burned q lot OF
this sand stone. He used part wood and
part Ignite fer fuel.
Some or perhaps nearly all OF thls
lime that was the result of this venture.
he sold to Robert Lee when that gen.
tleman was erecting the Gladstone
Roller Mill. The construction of That
mill was done by a man we'll known
throughout Stark county as a man quail
fed to know whether the lime spoken
of was suitable for the purpose, and so
Mr.. Lee bought it on a venture which
afterward demonstrated Thomas Ways
judgment as having been good. The
ime was about is per cent carbonate
of lime and IS per cent sand about the
right proportion for making good mortar.
and a certain amount of the walls Of
that structure was laid up with this
strange and unusual mixture and stood
the test of time for owe twenty years.
|. AS a matter of fact. at the price that
Nj. Calvin was willing to furnish the
material spoken Of, it brought the price
of this lime to Mr.. Lee, somewhat lower
than he was able at that time. to det
the usual commercial lime for laid down
at Gladstone.
G. s. Cryne.
This foregoing brings. to mind what
George Calvin and his son Felie were
doing in the spring and early summef
of 1887. They hauled a quantity OF
their native lime to New England where
they used it in plastering the walls Of
the Rainy Butte Sentinel Office during
the month of June. It made q very good
plaster, but the colonists on the Cannon
Ball were not generally ready at that
time to have their houses plastered and
the Calvins returned home.-tEditof.

EASY MONEY FOR FARMERS

The finance committee has reported
favorably to the United States senate
the Gronna resolution. 1t provides for
a national commission on farm finance.
to consist of three members and to be
limited to one year. It is to investi-
gate and report upon the systems of CO.
operative rural credit unions, which
have achieved such stupendous success
in Europe.
If this class of institution cen be en-
joyed by American farmers, the result
will be of profound importance. says an
editorial in Farm and Home. The Nash
Vile conference, which considered this
problem, takes the same view. An
official report of the British government
says that these methods of cooperative
rural credit are "a modern discovery
which may be likened, as a factor in
production. to the discovery of steam."
Some millions of farmers in different
European countries are members of
thousands of local and provincial credit
unions that make a business of season.

Abroad, these institutions are the
outgrowth of over $50 years. experience.
Their successful development in this
country, declares Farm and Home. may
be productive of more good Than all
of the political reforms now agitating
the public mind.
The national commission or farm
finance should present all the facts. so
that the farmers in the respective states
may succeed in their financial co-opera-
ton. The report should suggest what
state laws are needed and also whether
any national legislation is called for
to promote the most effective progress
of cooperative farm finance.
