Green ash grows we'll in North Da-
kota. 1t prefers low ground but does
we'll on upland, and especially when
cultivated, or mulched. The wood is
hard, heavy, strong, coarse grained and
rather brittle. 1t is used in the manu-
facture of agricultural implements,
carriages and furniture. Although not
the best for fence posts it makes very
good ones. If treated they will last for
a long time. The green ash can be
started from seed, though it will likely
be more satisfactory to plant seedlings,
say a year old. These can be had from
$3.50 to $3.50 a thousand.

Velvet chaff wheat, that prolific pro-
Queer, after being tossed about by the
grain exchange has this year been raised
as No l. Northern. At the time it was
first developed it was not thought to
have sufficiently good milling qualities
to entitle it to high rank. The Minneso-
ia board of grain appeal has been max
ing steady tests of its qualities and
found constant improvement. Last
year it was raised to No. 2 Northern.
The new ruling went into effect August
7th, 1912.

to think that he is just n little better
of this year than he was year ago.

are getting out early. They are not

then rushing pell nell and heller

This has been "a prosperous year
for the people OF Trinidad and Las

had bumper crops. The mines have
been running full blast and the
trade has been coming in to the local
merchants. There has been much
building going on and new enter
prises starting up. There is well
founded rumor that the Santa Fc
railroad is going to move the shops
here. The road is making prepa-
