Record For States.

Probably no state in the union
holds the record which Oregon does
in the matter of bonded debts in its
various counties according to w. G.
Copley. government employe who is
here gathering statistics. He finds
that there is only one county in the
whole state which has a bonded debt
and attributes this standing to the law
here governing the amount of bonds
which each county can issue. Mr..
Copley is enthusiastic over eastern
Oregon and thinks that the irrigation
project here means a great future for
this section of the state

lily of beavers, the number not being
known, have finished the building Of
very neat and complete dam across
the Jim river southwest of the asylum
bridge. The beaver have been pro-
tected carefully and have so far been
able to work undetected during their
building operations at night. The dam
has been visited by a number of peo-
pie and all admire the skillful con-
struction of the dam, which is now
about three feet high and affords a
footing to cross the river. A number
of stumps and trees cut down by the
Industrious little animals shows the
extent of their work.
There are very few beavers along
the Jim river at present although in
early days it was known as one of the
best trapping streams in the northwest,
and trappers, both the French and In
dams, made big hauls of fur along the
banks of the Jacques river, as the
stream was formerly called. -

democratic ticket, is a receptive can

for United States senator This, at

This means that former Governor
Burke will not be a candidate, at least
it is so construed by friends who take
it for granted that HellstEln's visit to
Washington was for that purpose of
securing a declaration from Burke as
to the latter's attitude on the senator
ial question.
Friends of Hellstrom say he is the
stronest candidate the party could
name and point to the fact that while
Wilson carried North Dakota in the
three-cornered presidential race last
year Hellstrom polled 1000 more
votes than Hellstrom in a three-cor-
nered gubernatorial contest.

Oh! come not here"

Northern Seed Company
Printing New Cdtd|oQ

Work is well under way on the new
catalogue that is to be put out by the
Northern Seed Company a Valley
City institution. The work is being
done at the Times Record factory
which insures the quality Of the work
and the seeds that are described are
almost all North Dakota grown which
insures the superior quality of them
also. In this conenct1on 1t might be
stated that the corn that the Northern
Seed Company will sell for the season
of 1914 is all North Dakota grown.
This will be appreciated by those who
have tried to raise corn in this state
from Southern seed and watched the
stalks grow until they resembled fish
poles without having produced any
ears. The catalogues will be sent upon
application to the company as long as
they last and every farmer in the
county as we'll as the state should
send for one at once.
The Northern Seed Company is a
North Dakota institution financed by
local capital, selling North Dakota
seeds and should enjoy North Dakota
patronage and confidence.
