County Farm Demonstration, Prof.
Emory c. Remsberg. while in Frederick
recently Stated that he thought that all
of the farmers of the county should
avail themselves Of this years oppor-
tunity for securing the varieties of seed
wheat that are advocated for use here bv
the Maryland Agricultural College Ex-
pertinent Station. He stated that the va.
Teties are Purple Straw, Dietz Long
Berry and Mammoth Red, and he said
that quite few farmers have sown this
wheat, and says that the Weld promises
to be about FIVE bushels more to the
acre than the ordinary varieties, which
have been sown here for years. He
stated that the heads are unusually well
filled, and contain from four to five
more grains than the other varieties.
He stated that because of the MANY
farmers VINO have sown these varieties.
1t should be no especial hardship for
every farmer in the county, who desires
to this fall sow the improved seed, TO do
SO.

A student enrolled in Agassizs class.
For several days Agassiz paid no atten-
ton to him whatever. At length, tired
of standing around idle, the student
asked Agassiz to give him something to
do. Agassiz's reply was to hand him a
herring and to say Study this" The
student was bewildered, but set about
studying" it. The next day Agassiz
asked him what he had learned about
the herring. The student replied that it

desperate attempt at humor the stu
dent replied, well, it's the same on
both sides"
That's it?' shouted Agassiz. That's
it! A ystarfish isn't the same on both
sides, an oyster isn't, thousands OF
specimens of the sea are not. When
you find one that is, you've found a
starting point in a new stage in the

THOUSANDS IN ATTENDANCE
Norwegians of Northwest Gather in
Twin Cities to Celebrate Inde-
pendence Centennial.

Norwegians of the Northwest, Min
nesota and the Twin Cities paid trib-
ute to the spirit of national and indi-
vidual freedom when they assembled
at the Minnesota state fair grounds,
midway between the Twin Cities, for
the first national celebration of the
independence day of their fatherland
ever held in the United States.
Fully 10000 men, women and chill
dren were on the grounds when the
parades from ST. Paul and Minneapo-
lis arrived simultaneously.
Flag waving, cheers and handicap
ping that resounded for blocks away
evidenced the enthusiasm of the
Norsemen as the vanguard of the two
professions met and passed through
the gates The cheering and applause
redoubled in volume as the automo-
biles passed in which rode H. H. Bryn,
minister from Norway; Consul Hobe,
Governor Eberhart, Mayor Keller of
st. Paul and other notables.
Speeches of welcome were made by
Mayor Nye of Minneapolis, Mayor Kel-
Ter of st. Paul and Governor Eberhart
Speeches also were made by Minister
Bryn, United States Senator Knute
Nelson and others.
The heartiest response of the after
noon was evidenced when Mr. Bryn
read a telegram from Gunnar Knute-
son, prime minister of Norway. The
message was a greeting to the Morse
men of the United States in behalf of
King Haakon VII. and the govern
ment. 1t was responded to with sew
eral minutes applause.
Bryn Makes Closing Address.
H. Bryn, Norwegian minister to the
United States, was the main speaker
when 10000 of his transplanted coun-
trymen gathered for the final event in

Ever since Norway was conquered
by the Danes it has been a bilingual,
or two-language, nation, but now the
people wish to be free from the Ian
guage imposed upon them by their
conquerors and to adopt in its stead
the "Landsmaal, or modified native
speech" says the Pathfinder. Lands
maal is not a mere revision of the
existing language -Danish--but it is
an entirely different language. In it
are embodied much of the ancient
Morse of the sagas, and some of the
dialects which have survived among
the peasantry from the days of the
Vikings. 1t was invented by the emf
nent Norwegian philologist, Ivar
Aasen, about the year 1850. Aasen
succeeded so we'll in producing a
musical, poetic language that it has
found much favor with the people,
who have adopted it in the schools,
churches, songs, plays and vernacu-
lar. 1t also appeals to the patriotic
side of their nature. On the other
hand, the corrupted Danish, which for
more than 400 years has been the Off
cial language of the country, recalls
to the minds of the people the days
of Danish oppression when Norway
was subject to the rule of an alien
king who had robbed her of indie
pendence. For this reason it is ex-
tremely distasteful to them. Indeed,
his Danish birth is said to be the only
ground for the unpopularity of King
Haakon's rule, wise and considerate
though it is. King Haakon, it will be
recalled, was a Danish prince. He
was put on the Norwegian throne
when Norway cut loose from Sweden.
The centennial anniversary of Nor
ways independence of Denmark is
now being celebrated and it is hoped
by many Of the most patriotic peo-
pie that Landsmaal will be adopted as
the official language of the country
and thus signalize the national re-
joicing in honor of the occasion. The
plan is heartily favored by the press
and by the majority of the storthing,
or parliament, and of the people.
) Numerous instances in which govern
ments. have forced language upon
a people have been recorded, but this,
it is said will be the first time in
history when the people have com
PEELED their rulers to abandon Ian
guage and adopt a new one.

The celebration this month of the
centennial of the independence of
Norway from Denmark will also com
memorate 100 years of peace on the
Scandinavian peninsula. An exposi-
ton to show Norway's progress in
that time was opened by King Haakon
last Friday. In a pavilion called
Norway Abroad" Norwegians are
showing their countrymen the life
they lead in their adopted country.
There will be great Homecoming
gathering of Norwegian-Ameri
and preparations are being made to
entertain at least $4,000 people,
