Our Peat Lands

Z. M. Comet, agricultural engin-
eer from the University Experiments
al Station at St. Paul, who has been
commissioned by the state to investi-
gate Minnesota's peat lands, spent
three weeks in the vicinity of Rol-
lis, Grygla, Thorvick, Roseau and
Carmel.
The result of the Investigation
Mr.. Comet says, shows that the ter
ritory visited has greatest POSSIBLE
tiles as grazing and stock raising
country. One Of the best fields of tim
othy hay ever grown in Minnesota
was found during the three weeks
investigation. The peat land also
grows clover in great abundance;
the crop of Alsike being especially
good. In nearly all of the country
visited settlers were found on prac-
tically every quarter section. They
are almost exclusively Scandinavians
and Germans and are frugal and
thrifty. Nearly all of them subscribe
for one or more agricultural papers
and have settled in the country for
the purpose of making their farms
pay. The farmers who had started
with good breeds of cattle and were
enthusiastic with the results obtain
ed thus far.
The soil is nearly all peat from
six inches to four feet in depth and
underlaid with six to eight inches of
black dirt. The character of the
country is such that the\ soil retains
water for a long period and it was
not until after the bitches were in
operation that the land could be
titled. Mr.. Comet stated that the
bitches had practically made the
country and that the farmers had

Of all our great artists the most
unsuccessful financially was Homer
Dodge Martin. His work was not
popular; he never won any prizes !;
and indeed he was long focred to
depend for living on the assist
ance of his wife.
Like many other early American
artists, he was self-taught. His ia
Their, a carpenter in Albany, New
York, was not easily persuaded to
let the boy follow up natural tai
ent for painting. Martin first tried
carpentering, shopkeeping, and ar
chitecture. In each case his desire
to draw pictures was too strong for
him. boards, paper, blank walls,
were decorated with landscapes
until his employers found it neces-
sary to discharge the young artist.
At last a sculptor of the time plead
ed for him, and Homer was permit
ted to paint.
Martin insisted on doing every
thing in his own way, and he did
not get far at first. His admirers can
find hardly more than an occasional
hint in these crude early works of
the great skill that their author af-
terward acquired. Nevertheless, the
Weather people of Albany, who
were proud of their artist, bought a
number Of Martins canvases.
1t was not until he moved to New
York in 1862 that this queer genius
had a really hard struggle to live.
His habits were irregular, he dress
ed badly, and generally made poor
impression. The great Whistler said,
introducing him, Gentlemen, this
is Homer Martin. He doesn't look as
if he were; but he is. Revolutionary

Ideas and a keen cutting humor
made him as many enemies as friends
Strangely enough, he chose quiet,
calm landscapes to paint. He was at
tracted to the Catskills, Adirondacks,
and White Mountains, and in Eu-
rope preferred tranquil scenes along
the upper Thames and in Normandy.
Homer Martin seldom painted d.
rect from nature; but would sketch
in his notebook and jot down color
memoranda. Less surprising, there
fore, than it would seem at first is
the painting of two famous pictures
in 1895, when he was all but blind.
"The Adirondack" and the "View
on the Seine'' rank with his best
work. Two years later he died. @
Martin was not appreciated dur
ing his lifetime. The few pictures
that he did manage to sell were pur-
chased by his friends. Today few of
his important pictures can be
bought at any price.
